The Suns were just too big Thursday for their opponent. Sure, Phoenix's talent
overwhelmed Sacramento's mish-mash, mismatched unit for a 118-100 home victory,
but it is rare to see the Suns tower over a foe.
    星期四太陽對於他們的對手來說可是熱得無法擋。當然，太陽的天份是當天國王的雜
牌軍完全無法比擬的。太陽在主場以118比100輕易取勝，但太陽在高度方面完全壓過對手
的情形卻是相當少見的。

It did not matter that Phoenix was 1 for 15 on three-pointers through three
quarters. With Kings frontcourt starters Ron Artest, Brad Miller and Kenny
Thomas all missing, Sacramento went small and played smaller.
    太陽雖然前三節在三分線外出手15次只命中1球，但沒什麼大礙。因為國王先發前場球
員R.Artest、B.Miller和K.Thomas等三人全數缺席，他們只能以小型陣容應戰，而且在球
賽末段也越打越差。

Two nights removed from a four-point game that broke his string of 55
consecutive double-figure scoring games, Amare Stoudemire looked like a big rig
on a freeway of sedans and sports cars. He did not hit his first shot until
nearly five minutes in but did not stay quiet after the emphatic reverse slam
off a spin opened the arsenal. He finished with 33 points and 21 rebounds, the
first 30-20 game of his career.
    雖然兩天前那場只得四分的比賽讓阿罵連續55場球賽得分突破雙位數的紀錄嘎然中止
，但他在這場比賽中就像是在高速公路上狂飆的重型跑車。他在比賽進行將近有五分鐘時
投籃都還沒開張，但他以一次轉身後的強力反灌正式向大家宣告他準備要火力全開。終場
他一共拿下33分並抓下21個籃板，這是他職業生涯第一場達到30分-20籃板的比賽。

"I wanted to bounce from the other night," Stoudemire said. "It was a tough one
to go down. Even though we won, which is great, I felt I could've played a lot
better."
    "我希望從那晚觸底反彈，"阿罵說。"那是一場難忘的比賽。我們拿下了球賽勝利，這
固然很好，不過我還是認為我可以表現得更加出色。"

It was Stoudemire's second-best rebounding game of the season, coming up shy of
the 23 he posted against San Antonio.
    這是阿罵本季單場籃板數第二多的比賽，僅僅比2月1號面對聖安東尼奧馬刺時所創下
的23個籃板紀錄少2個。

The Suns posted their biggest rebound total (58) and margin (25) of the season
with the help of Boris Diaw, who tied a career high with 14 rebounds. He
started the second half, putting the back problems behind him for a second
straight strong game.
    太陽在屌爺的挹注下締造了本季單場最多籃板(58個)以及籃板差距(贏對手25個)的紀
錄，他在這場比賽抓下平了個人生涯紀錄的14個籃板。他在下半場先發上場，以連續第二
場比賽出色的表現正式與背傷說bye-bye。

Stoudemire, Diaw and Shawn Marion were towering compared to Sacramento's front
line of 6-foot-9 Shareef Abdur-Rahim, 6-7 Francisco Garcia and 6-6 John Salmons
.
    阿罵、屌爺和Matrix與沙加緬度國王由6呎9吋的SAR、6呎7吋的F.Garcia和6呎6吋的J.
Salmons等人所組成的前場陣容相比還高出一截。

"Usually, we dominate by quickness," Diaw said. "Today, we could add onto fast
pace the fact that we were big."
    "通常我們是以速度取勝，"屌爺說。"但今天，我們不只在速度方面，在體型方面也壓
過了對手。"

Phoenix held Sacramento to 38.9 percent shooting. It was the second straight
time a Suns opponent has shot less than 40 percent and the fourth time it has
happened this month.
　　太陽將國王的投籃命中率壓制到只有38.9%。這是太陽連續第二場比賽，也是本月第四
次將對手的投籃命中率壓制在40%以下了。

The Suns did not pull away until the third quarter when Stoudemire sparked a
14-3 run that put Phoenix ahead 78-62.
    太陽一直到第三節阿罵大爆發，率隊打出一波14比3的小高潮後才以78比62大幅領先國
王。

Steve Nash established control with six of his 16 assists in the first quarter.
It was his fourth best assist tally of the season and highest since returning
from a shoulder injury.
    S.Nash在第一節就遞出他全場16次助攻中的6次。單場16次助攻這是他本季單場助攻數
第四多的紀錄，同時也是他自肩傷復原歸隊後的單場助攻數新高。

Jalen Rose made another case to stick in the rotation, adding two late
three-pointers to finish with 11 points in 14 minutes.
    J.Rose最後錦上添花投進了兩顆三分球，在14分鐘的上場時間內拿下了11分，這讓他
出現在季後賽固定輪替名單中的機會又多了一些。
