[外電] Victory escapes Spurs

[jiuan1027 (jiuan)]

TORONTO — Maybe the Spurs were due.

Maybe it wasn't fair to expect them to win every close game. Maybe Roger Mason
 Jr. can't be called upon to fly out of his phone booth at the end of every
fourth quarter.Maybe Matt Bonner isn't the second coming of Larry Bird. And maybe sometimes
even Roko Ukic has his day.

也許對於期待老刺刺去贏得每場緊湊比賽是不太公平的.你以為R.Mason會每場第四節
跳出來替自己寫劇本嗎?M.Bonner當然也不會是第二個Larry Bird啦.
而有時候有些小人物(Roko Ukic)也會有屬於他們的一天.

註:他是聯盟第三位U開頭的球員,這樣看起來U開頭跟馬刺都挺有緣的XD

The factors were many, yet the result was singular. With two starters on the
bench with injuries Wednesday night, the short-handed Toronto Raptors sent the
 Spurs into the All-Star break on the wrong end of a 91-89 thriller at Air
Canada Centre.

輸球的原因有很多,不過事情的真相永遠只有一個.人手短缺的暴龍還是成功守住了主場.

“That's why it's a game. That's why you play them,” Spurs coach Gregg
Popovich said. “Things don't always go the way the percentages say.”

波波:球賽不就是這樣嗎?永遠都沒辦法像你預期地那樣順利~~~~~~~~~~

Indeed, there were no Vegas odds on this.

Ukic, a 24-year-old rookie earning playing time only by virtue of Jose Caldero
n's recalcitrant hamstring, made the second-biggest shot of the game, burying
a 3-pointer with 49.9 seconds left to transform a four-point Toronto deficit
into one.Twenty seconds later, he made the biggest shot of the game, floating a
7-footer over Tony Parker and past Tim Duncan to give the Raptors their final
lead.Ukic finished with 22 points, easily his season high. Before Wednesday, he had
 scored 15, total, in all of February.Unlike many in the building Wednesday, Spurs guard Manu Ginobili was not
caught off-guard by Ukic's outburst.

Ukic:Calderon你暫時可以不用回來了~~~~~~~~~~~~

“A lot of NBA players and media tend to underestimate players from overseas,”
 Ginobili said. “We know each other. I saw him in the Olympics (with Croatia).
 So it's not a surprise.”

Manu:很多人都低估了海外球員的實力.我在奧運就見過Ukic.對於他的表現,不 意 外!


以下提到在Ukic得手之後馬刺本來還是有兩次可以扳回來的進攻機會......
The Spurs (35-16) had two chances to either go ahead or tie after Ukic's final
 basket.
First, a hard-charging Ginobili missed a drive over a hard-charging Jermaine
 O'Neal.After O'Neal made just one of two free throws to nudge Toronto's lead to two
 points with 7.2 seconds left, Popovich called a timeout and drew up a play.

Almost immediately, things went haywire. Michael Finley bobbled a pass and
had to pass up an open 3-pointer. He shuffled the ball to Parker, who had to
force a going-nowhere jumper over O'Neal as time expired.
With that, the Spurs had lost just their second game by three points or less
since October.

“It happens,” Parker said. “We won a lot of games close this year. Sometimes
, you're going to lose games like that.”

小趴:它就發生了.我們今年贏過不少B2B的比賽.但有時候你就會像這樣輸掉....= =a

Toronto (21-34) survived a pre-break parting shot from Ginobili, who equaled a
 season high with 32 points. It was the third time in six games he'd cracked
 30.

暴龍成功從Manu再次燃燒小宇宙的比賽中逃出生天.Manu得到本季新高的32分.
這是最近六場比賽得分第三次來到30分.(Manu:拜託,我的頭髮好不容易長出來~~~~)

Parker added 22 for the Spurs, who lost in Canada for the first time since 2004
. Duncan had 20 points, 13 rebounds and seven assists for his league-leading
ninth 20-10-5 effort of the season.

小趴拿到22分.馬刺自從2004年以來第一次在加拿大輸球.老大拿到20分13籃板7助攻
.領先全聯盟9次的20-10-5

The rest of the Spurs roster, however, combined to score just 15. Notably,
Bonner — after putting up 45 points in his previous two games — went 0 for
4 and was scoreless.

板凳拿下了區區15分.波妞打出前面兩場合計共45分之後,得到了...............０分

In addition to Calderon, the Raptors were also without All-Star forward Chris
 Bosh, who missed his fourth straight game with a sprained knee. His absence
opened up more touches for Jason Kapono (21 points) and Andrea Bargnani (23).
Ukic's game-changing 3-pointer was not in his scouting report. His 3-point
percentage before Wednesday: a not-so-sizzling 18.9.
“He shoots like 20 percent,” Parker noted. “That's what we wanted.”

Ukic在此之前的三分命中率.189(7-37).
對面的Parker說:今晚他表現得像是20%,那就是我們想要的
(這好像也沒好多少阿= =)

But the percentages weren't with the Spurs on Wednesday. They were due. And
Ukic had his day.

以上只翻譯部分,有錯麻煩指正


這場有點可惜,該拿的沒拿下來.不然趁明星賽可以讓老刺刺和鬼切好好休息一陣子
(老大 小趴 Mason:有嗎??????????????)
不過就波波講的沒有每天在過年的,客場最後三戰尼克 活塞和巫師
應該會比較好打一點,別大意就好

最近交易乳摸實在有點多,希望大家耐著性子等吧,感覺馬刺不會動到大交易就是了~

對了!祝大家閃光節快樂^^
