Tick, tick, tick.

滴答滴答

Tim Duncan has flecks of gray in the stubble on his face. Manu Ginobili’s
hairline is sprinting a customarily frantic fast break in reverse on his
scalp. Even the one-time teen-aged phenom Tony Parker has what polite company
calls laugh lines running from the corners of his mouth.

TD的臉上出現了斑點，鬼切的髮線也回不去了，就連曾經的小伙子TP，嘴角也出現了細紋

Time waits for no one, not even the Spurs. Yet here is the so-called Big
Three simultaneously pushing back against the sunset and deeper into the
record book.

時間從來不等人，然而三巨頭在這裡，對抗著時間，繼續將自己寫進NBA的歷史裡。

TimTonyManu.

TDTP鬼切.

The years have practically blended them together into one multi-syllabic name
with a single identity.

這些年來，他們的名字已經近乎完美的融合在一起。

They were together again in the fourth quarter Wednesday night, side by side
on the Spurs’ bench, spectators to watch the mop-up crew in a 112-77 rolling
of the Thunder that wasn’t that close.

他們在週三晚上比賽的第四節裡，坐在一起欣賞著一場112-77的勝利。

It was their 111th playoff victory as teammates, leaping Duncan, Parker and
Ginobili past Lakers Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Magic Johnson and Michael Cooper
as the winningest postseason trio in NBA history.

這已經是他們第111場的季後賽勝利，超越了由賈霸、魔術強森、庫柏寫下的原記錄。

Tick, tick, tick.

滴答滴答

One minute an Argentine, a Frenchman and a swimmer from the Virgin Islands
were learning the fundamentals of a basketball language and, a dozen years
later, it is as if they were all born speaking a common tongue.

上一刻，一個阿根廷人、一個法國人、和一個來自維京群島的泳將，還在學習著籃球的語
言，經過這些年後，他們就像是為了在一起打球而出生。

Everyone moves. Everyone cuts. Everyone passes the ball like it was
radioactive. Everyone finds the open man. Everyone is for everyone.

每個動作、每個片段、每個傳球、全部人為了彼此而跳動。

There is a video tribute to the Spurs circulating online called
“The Beautiful Game.”

網路上，有一部記錄馬刺的影片：「完美的比賽。」

Truth is, on nights like Game 2 of the Western Conference finals, all that’s
missing are a sash, a tiara and a runway to show off their stuff.

而在對雷霆的第二場比賽裡，馬刺就像只缺了伸展台來展現他們的藝術。

Of course, the last time the Spurs held a 2-0 lead in this same round of the
playoffs in 2012, they went to Oklahoma City and the bottom dropped out as
they lost four straight and the series.

我們當然記得，2012年馬刺也曾2-0領先雷霆，卻在前進OKC主場之後，連輸了四場。

Not now.

但不會是現在

The Thunder are playing without James Harden, gone off to Houston, and the
fact that there are scant offensive options behind Kevin Durant and Russell
Westbrook is obvious and makes it lopsided. That OKC is also playing without
its shot-blocking, rim-protecting anchor in the middle Serge Ibaka, due to a
calf injury, practically makes it unfair.

鬍子登高飛去火箭隊了，OKC的進攻在找不到第三進攻點的情況下顯的支離破碎，而他們
最可靠的禁區守護者伊巴卡也因為受傷而無法上場。

Tick, tick, tick.

滴答滴答

There are explosive devices on timers up and down the Spurs’ roster. In
Game 1, it was those huge paws of Kawhi Leonard that grabbed control and
would never let go. In Game 2, Danny Green strafed them with seven 3-pointers
that probably made the Thunder defenders want to hit the deck and just cover
their heads.

在馬刺的陣容裡，永遠有能帶來貢獻的球員。第一場比賽裡，可愛的雙手緊緊控制住了比
賽。而第二場小綠的七顆三分，讓OKC的防守球員只能難堪的閉上了眼睛。

It is simple, timeless, elegant basketball that can only come from years spent
 together and a core of star players who are unique in an era of free agent
team-hopping and trophy-chasing.

簡單、永恆、優雅的籃球，來自於長期結合在一起的伙伴對團隊的追求、獎盃的渴望。

“We take nothing for granted,” Parker said. “We know how lucky we are.”

"我們從不視什麼為理所當然" 跑車說 "我們知道自己是多麼的幸運"

The milestone as the winningest combination ever?

對於成為在季後賽獲勝最多場的組合?

“Until you said it I have never heard about it, so I haven’t thought about
it,” said Duncan. “It’s a wonderful accomplishment, as a lot of the things
we’ve done as a trio. But our only focus, our only concern right know is
winning this series and moving on.”

"你不說我跟本就不知道這件事" TD說 "這是一項偉大的成就，就像我們三人一起完成過
的那些一樣，但我們現在，只想專注在贏得系列賽並繼續前進"

They have been able to keep moving — never once missing the playoffs in
their dozen years together, seven times reaching the conference finals, five
trips to the NBA Finals and four championships — because they have all
chosen to give up some chunk of money and some piece of individual glory for
the whole.

他們已經能夠繼續前進----在這些年來，從沒錯過任何一次季後賽、七次的西區冠軍賽、
五次總冠軍賽、四次的聯盟冠軍，只因為他們願意放下個人的榮耀而成就彼此。

Durant and Westbrook bark and bicker at each other in timeouts and as they
walk off the court at halftime. Meanwhile the Spurs could teach a barbershop
quartet a thing or two about harmony.

相比於KD和西河在暫停時的爭吵，馬刺就像在演奏一場和諧的四重奏。

None of them played as much as 30 minutes per game this season. Parker was
their leading scorer with a meager 16.7 average. All of it to be ready for
this time of the year and the playoffs.

在這個賽季裡馬刺沒人平均上場超過30分鐘，全隊得分最高的TP只有16.7分，這一切，都
是在為了季後賽做準備。

“I always think about our guys and their stats,” said coach Gregg Popovich.
“They really get screwed sometimes, playing for me. If you win 62 games,
and some of them are by a decent margin, I bet our guys play fewer fourth
quarter minutes than most good players on any team. I’d be willing to bet
that. It hurts their stats, without a doubt, but luckily I’ve got players
who don’t think about that.”

"我常常在想我是不是耽誤了他們" POPO說 "他們在我手下打球真的受到了不平等的待遇
。我們贏下了62場比賽，而其中有一些是非常驚險的，我敢說我的球員在第四節上場的時
間相比其他的明星球員是最少的，說實話，我實在是耽誤了他們，但何其幸運，我擁有一
群只在意勝利的隊員。"

What they think about is the different ways and the different plays that can
turn a 36-33 OKC advantage four minutes into the second quarter into a 58-44
lead by halftime that becomes a merciless chokehold.

他們永遠在想著怎樣正確的解讀比賽，只花了四分鐘，就從33-36變成58-44，最後讓
比賽變成一場屠殺。

Ginobili whips a left-handed pass to Green in the corner for a wide-open 3.
Parker slices through the Thunder defense for devilish layups and feeds to
his teammates. Even Tiago Splitter shows off his dishing skills with a nifty
give-and-go play with Parker and then sets the table for Duncan right at the
hoop.

鬼切用一記絕妙的傳球給小綠射進三分，跑車帶領著全隊進攻並用切入撕裂雷霆防線，甚
至剃牙哥也展現了他的傳球技巧，讓TD輕鬆得分。

It’s the beautiful game, the way the Spurs have been painting it with a
master’s brush for years.

這是一場完美的比賽，馬刺在這些年來一遍一遍展現出來的經典。

TimTonyManu.

While it’s fitting that they have their place in the record book, a gold
frame would be more appropriate.

TDTP鬼切

他們已經在歷史留下了偉大的足跡，而他們的身影，會永遠留在人們心中。



心得：馬刺真的在現今英雄主義的NBA中，展現了完全不同的風格，讓我們重新瞭解，籃
      球是團隊和戰術的運動，偉大的三劍客！
