Lakers History湖人簡史之六
1953-54: Lovellette Comes To The Rescue Of Ailing Mikan
1953-54：Lovellette前來拯救病痛的Mikan
來源：http://0rz.tw/444s2
The following season saw Mikan's production dip again. Bad knees were
beginning to take a toll on the 29-year-old center, and he scored only 18.1
points per game. But the Lakers signed a promising rookie named Clyde
Lovellette, who was more than capable of spelling Mikan at the center
position.
接下來的這個球季Mikan的產出再次下滑。受傷的膝蓋開始困擾著這位29歲的中鋒，讓他平
均一場比賽只有18.1分。但是湖人簽下了一位很有前途的菜鳥Clyde Lovellette，他會做
的可不僅僅是在中鋒的位置拼著Mikan的名字（大概就是還不錯的意思吧）。
Minneapolis won the Western Division in 1953-54, posting the NBA's best
record at 46-26. The playoffs got off to an odd start when the league
experimented with a round-robin format in the first round. Minneapolis
survived, then downed Rochester in the Western Division Finals. The expected
NBA Finals rematch between the Lakers and the Knickerbockers failed to
materialize because New York was eliminated in the Eastern Conference
round-robin. Instead, the Lakers faced Syracuse.
明尼阿波里斯在1953-54球季再次贏得西組王座，還擁有聯盟最佳的戰績46勝26敗。季後賽
有個奇怪的開始，因為聯盟實驗性的在第一輪實施循環賽。明尼阿波里斯最終晉級了，並
在西組冠軍賽擊敗了羅徹斯特皇家。預期將再次上演的湖尼大戰並沒有成真，因為紐約在
東組第一輪循環賽就被淘汰了。這次湖人碰上的是雪城。
The Nationals surprised Minneapolis with a two-point win on the Lakers' home
court in Game 2, tying the series at one game apiece. The Lakers then took
two out of three games in Syracuse, and the teams returned to Minneapolis
with the Lakers leading, three games to two. Syracuse survived Game 6 with
another two-point victory, but the Lakers made it three titles in a row with
an 87-80 triumph in the deciding game.
系列第二場雪城國民讓湖人驚奇的以兩分落敗，該系列以一比一平手。然後湖人在雪城的
三場比賽拿下了兩場，帶著三比二的優勢回到主場明尼阿波里斯。雪城在第六戰再次以兩
分差活下來，但是湖人在最後一場決定性的比賽裡以87-80拿到連續的第三座總冠軍。
待續...
