Considering the improbability of the entire season, it perhaps was fitting that
the Bulls opened the playoffs Sunday with a most improbable scenario.
若要說nba這整球季讓人最難預測的球隊 在星期天開始打季後賽的公牛隊或許還蠻適合的
With Tyson Chandler in foul trouble and Kirk Hinrich struggling through an 8-for
-23 shooting performance, a trio of rookies -- Andres Nocioni, Ben Gordon and Ch
ris Duhon -- stepped to the forefront to lead the Bulls to a 103-94 victory over
the Washington Wizards in Game 1 of the first-round Eastern Conference series.
當 Tyson Chandler遭遇犯規麻煩Kirk Hinrich失常且整隊FG只有23-8時 新人三人組Andres
Nocioni, Ben Gordon 和Chris Duhon適時跳了出來 帶領球隊以103-94擊退來犯的巫師隊
在東區季後在第一輪以1-0領先
Experience is supposed to be at a premium in the NBA postseason, but the Baby Bu
lls have been bucking trends all season.
''You're never really sure what you're going to get even though they played a nu
mber of big games,'' Bulls coach Scott Skiles said of his rookies. ''It seemed l
ike a normal game. I didn't think they were too relaxed or too intense.''
你永遠無法知道你能打的多好 即使他們已經參予過無數重要比賽Scott Skiles對他的新人
球員說:這不過是一場比賽 我不想讓他們太輕鬆或過於緊張
After being accused of being a dirty player by the Wizards' Gilbert Arenas a few
days ago, Nocioni answered with a sparkling 25-point, 18-rebound effort while p
laying every second of the game. The 18 rebounds is the most by a rookie in NBA
playoff history.
幾天前 當Nocioni被Arenas說打球不乾淨時 Nocioni以打滿全場攻下25分拉下18籃板的表現
回應 18籃板在NBA的季後賽歷史中是新人之最
Gordon, after fighting off a nervous bladder at the start (he took a quick bathr
oom break), pumped in a team-high 30 points on 11-for-19 shooting.
Gordon克服了一開始的怯場(休息時衝去廁所) 以19-11的命中率得到全隊最高的30分
Duhon added seven points, six assists and a season-high 10 rebounds and led the
defensive effort that held Arenas -- Washington's leading scorer -- to nine poin
ts on 3-for-19 shooting.
Duhon有7分 6籃板 以及本季新高的10籃板並且成功守住Arenas 只讓他得到9分(FG 19-3)
After the Bulls took a 1-0 lead in the best-of-seven series -- Game 2 is Wednesd
ay at the United Center -- Chandler was asked if he was surprised the rookies pe
rformed so well in their first playoff game.
當公牛以1-0領先巫師有了個好的開始時 Chandler被問到他是否驚訝這些新秀們在他們的第
一場季後賽有這麼好的表現時
''I don't even look at these guys as rookies anymore,'' Chandler said. ''All yea
r they've been coming up with great big plays. The players that we got here have
played in some huge games. We've got an Olympic champion [Nocioni], a college c
hampion [Gordon] and Duhon has played in many NCAA tournament games. We have som
e big-time players.''
Chandler說:我再也不會把這些人當成新人 這一整年他們已經有太多精采的表現了 在加入
公牛之前他們都有打過大比賽 我們有奧運冠軍[Nocioni], 大學冠軍[Gordon] Duhon也打過
幾次NCAA的錦標賽 我們有一些這種經歷的球員
No one was bigger than Nocioni. With Chandler, Antonio Davis and Othella Harring
ton in foul trouble at different points, Nocioni helped the Bulls to a 66-61 reb
ounding edge and also provided numerous lifts offensively.
沒有人比Nocioni來的優秀 當Chandler, Antonio Davis 和Othella Harrington 有犯規麻
煩時 Nocioni helped the Bulls to a 66-61 rebounding(= ="看不懂)在進攻時 他也能鼓
舞隊友
''He was huge out there,'' Skiles said. ''He's a very good rebounder anyway, but
to be able to go out there and get 15 defensive rebounds against that team with
their athleticism is exceptional.
''I think it's safe to say that was his best game. I thought he made a bunch of
timely plays, too. He made a big three in the corner. A couple of times when we
did miss a couple of jump shots and we were limping a little bit offensively, I
thought he put his head down and went to the hole and got to the line. That bust
ed up their rhythm a little bit. He took charges. He was outstanding.''
我想這是他最好的一場比賽 我也知道他投進了許多關鍵球 當我們進攻開始投籃不進並且感
到疲倦時 他就開始東跑西跑企圖打亂對方的節奏 他了解這整場比賽
After a seven-year absence from the postseason, the game didn't start out like t
he Bulls -- or the United Center sellout crowd of 22,655 -- envisioned.
The Bulls fell behind 21-16 and were in foul trouble. But just when things appea
red bleak, Gordon scored six points in the final 1:35 to pull the Bulls within 2
6-24 at the end of the first quarter. A two-point deficit was far from ideal, bu
t it wasn't bad considering the Wizards had a 9-2 scoring edge from the free-thr
ow line and a 13-2 edge in free-throw attempts.
公牛在第一節有了犯規麻煩並且以16-21落後 但是之後有了轉機 Gordon在第一節最後1:35
得到6分第一節結束時26-24 他們在兩分球上表現的不理想更差的是罰球得到的分數是9-2
The Bulls made a charge early in the second quarter, tying the score at 30 on a
Nocioni jumper, then taking a 32-30 lead on a Gordon jumper. Gordon scored 10 po
ints in the first 51/2 minutes of the second as the Bulls held a 39-36 edge.
The Bulls held a 51-44 advantage late in the first half and held on for a 53-52
halftime lead.
Considering that Chandler played only two minutes in the first half and Washingt
on's Larry Hughes (game-high 31 points) erupted for 24 first-half points (on 10-
for-12 shooting), the Bulls had to be delighted to be in the game, let alone lea
ding at the intermission.
Washington charged out in the second half, scoring 10 straight for a 67-60 lead
with seven minutes left in the third quarter and taking an 82-77 lead into the f
ourth.
Gordon was scoreless in the third, but opened the fourth quarter with two free t
hrows and had 10 points in the first five minutes as the Bulls took a 90-86 lead
.
Both teams then essentially traded baskets for the next several minutes. The Bul
ls led by no more than four and never lost the lead.
Nocioni then delivered what proved to be the dagger when he hit a three-pointer
from the right corner for a 99-94 lead with 2:26 to play. After three straight s
coreless possessions, Davis scored with 1:08 left for a 101-94 advantage.
All that was left for the fans was to toast Nocioni. After he drew a charge on A
renas, they chanted, ''NO-SEE-O-NEE! ... NO-SEE-O-NEE!''
比賽終了前有一段小插曲
那時Arenas急著搶分 所以接到隊友的傳球直接往籃下衝 被Nocioni製造一個帶球撞人(剩54
.2sec) 不知道本文中的they是指誰…他們哼著''NO-SEE-O-NEE! ... NO-SEE-O-NEE!''
指Arenas沒有看到Nocioni 哈哈~~真是太好笑了
''I feel good about that [and] I need to say thank you to everybody,'' Nocioni s
aid. ''But it's just one game. I need to think of the next game.''
Nocioni說:我感覺非常好 同時我必須謝謝每個人
但這只是一場比賽 我還得想著下一場比賽
BEYOND THE BOX SCORE
0: The number of times the Bulls have lost a playoff series when holding the hom
e-court advantage, compared to 28 series victories.
當擁有主場優勢時 公牛輸掉季後賽整個系列的次數
XD………所以我們篤定晉級???
