Barbosa was one of four players to have scored 30 points in a game before turning in the top effort of the tournament. 隸屬鳳凰城太陽的小巴在這三場比賽平均攻得22.5分,包括在開幕賽擊敗加拿大的比 賽中獨得30分的好表現。小巴在成為美錦賽得分王前就已經是唯四曾經單場攻下超過30分 的球員之一。 The U.S. Virgin Islands (0-3) was setting up the biggest upset of the tournament when it took a 45-33 lead with 2:10 left in the second quarter, and was still ahead 48-41 at halftime. 尚未開張的維京群島企圖上演本屆賽事的最大爆冷門戲碼,他們在第二節剩下2分10秒 時以45比33領先,而中場時也還以48比41領先。 Brazil finally found its shooting touch and starting playing some defense in a dominant third quarter in which it outscored the U.S. Virgin Islands 31-15, going 4-for-5 from 3-point range after missing eight of nine shots from there in the first half. 巴西終究還是找回了他們的投射手感並開始加強了防守,在表現主宰能力的第三節於 三分線外投五中四,而他們在上半場九次出手卻有八次失手。 Brazil increased the lead to 83-68 with 8:44 to go on a driving layup by Alex Garcia and appeared to be on the way to an easy win, but the U.S. Virgin Islands had one last comeback in trying to get its first victory. Alex Garcia在比賽時間剩下8分44秒時上籃得手幫助巴西取得83比68的領先,似乎巴 西將能輕鬆獲勝,但維京群島仍不放棄,為爭取第一場勝利做最後的垂死掙扎。 Cuthbert Victor, who played at Murray State, scored 12 points in a 16-2 run by the U.S. Virgin Islands that made it 87-84 with 2:01 left.

"I think we lost a little bit of focus. I think we were thinking that the game was going to be easy and it's not that way." "不,我不認為這場勝利拿得這麼驚險是那個原因,"他說。"我認為我們失去了一些注 意力。我認為我們把這場比賽看得太過簡單而事實並非如此。" Victor finished with 25 points for the U.S. Virgin Islands, which completes the first round on Sunday against Venezuela (0-3). The loser of that game will be the only team from Group B not to advance to the second round. Victor為維京群島拿下25分,他們將在星期天的第一輪最後一場比賽遭遇同樣一勝難 求的委內瑞拉(0勝3敗)。輸球的隊伍將成為B組唯一一支未能晉級第二輪的球隊。 Despite the tough third quarter, the U.S. Virgin Islands shot 51 percent from the field (33-for-65) and was 6-for-13 on 3s. The team committed eight of 18 turnovers in the third quarter, the only part of the game it struggled offensively. 儘管第三節打得辛苦異常,維京群島仍維持了51%的投籃命中率(65投33中),三分球也 有投13中6的出色表現。他們整場比賽的18次失誤有8次出現在第三節,那也是他們整場比 賽唯一進攻斷線的一段時間。 Barbosa should have a much tougher time scoring against the United States, the dominant defensive team of the tournament with the likes of Kobe Bryant, LeBron James and Tayshaun Prince ready to guard him plus Mike D'Antoni, his coach with the Suns, is an assistant with the U.S. team here. 小巴在面對美國隊時得分應該會更加困難,因為這支美錦賽的防守強隊陣中擁有像是 Kobe、LBJ和小王子等人,已經磨刀霍霍準備給他好看,加上他太陽隊的教練Mike D'Antoni也是美國隊的助理教練。 "They have as complete a player as there is in this tournament in Leandro Barbosa especially the way they use him," U.S. coach Mike Krzyzewski said Saturday. "They're a top-flight team and we respect them." "巴西陣中有個在錦標賽中完成度首屈一指的Barbosa,而他們運用他的方法更讓他顯得 突出,"美國的K教練在星期六說到。"他們是一支一流的球隊而我們也很尊敬他們。" Barbosa knows there is a lot left in this tournament besides the matchup of early unbeatens. 小巴知道除了前幾場悉數獲勝的比賽之外,這個美錦賽還有好多場硬戰要打。 "Whatever happens tomorrow, it happens," he said. "Forget about that and just keep our focus for the couple of other games. After tomorrow I think is when the tournament is going to start." "不管明天會發生什麼事情,他就是會發生,"他說。"不要再去想,只要把注意力集中 到其他的幾場比賽就行了。我認為從明天起,這個錦標賽才算真正開始。" -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 210.241.111.125
