PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 12  -- With Allen Iverson's shooting out of focus,
and the Philadelphia 76ers staring at another monumental collapse, it was a
good thing Chris Webber was seeing 20-20.
在Allen Iverson投籃失準，而七六人又在開賽就陷入落後的情形下，Webber的20-20
無疑是久旱甘霖。

Webber scored 27 points and grabbed a season-high 21 rebounds as the 76ers
survived another late meltdown to post a 90-89 overtime triumph over the
Minnesota Timberwolves, who had their five-game winning streak snapped.
Webber得了27分，摘下本季新高的21個籃板，使得七六人在正規賽槍響前存活下來
，並且在延長賽中以90-89險勝五連勝終止的灰狼隊。

With Iverson - the league's leading scorer at 34.4 points per game - enduring
an 8-for-25 shooting night, Webber carried the team on his aging shoulders on
both ends of the floor en route to his ninth career 20-20 effort.
在每晚平均要拿34.4分的聯盟得分王Iverson只有二十五投八中的表現時，Webber以他
年紀漸長的肩膀在攻守兩端挑起重擔，邁向他生涯第九次20-20的表現。

"I want the opportunity to play this way every night," Webber said. "It has
nothing to do with what (Iverson) is doing. He's a great player. He's going
to get his number of shots. I just want to take my shots."
"我希望能每晚都有這樣表現的機會，"Webber說。"這與Iverson場上表現不互斥。
他是個偉大的球員。他有他該有的出手次數。我也要我應得的出手機會。"

"Allen didn't have his best game," Sixers forward Kyle Korver said. "You
can't expect him to score 40 all the time. Tonight, he didn't play as well as
he wanted to, but I felt that a lot of other guys stepped up and played well,
especially Chris."
"Allen沒有將他最好的一面展現出來，"KK這樣說，"你不能總是期待他每場比賽都拿40
分。今晚，他沒有打得如他希望的好，不過我感覺到其他人都站出來並且表現更好，
特別是Chris。"

After Minnesota superstar forward Kevin Garnett opened overtime with a
turnaround jumper, Webber answered with a pair of jumpers around a free throw
by Matt Barnes to give Philadelphia a 90-89 lead with 2:49 remaining.
在KG以一個轉身跳投開啟延長賽之後，Webber以兩記跳投回應，Matt Barnes補上一個罰球
讓七六人在終場前2:49秒以90-89領先到最後。

"The more you're involved in the game, the better it feels," Webber said. "I
was touching the ball in my comfort spots and that's all you can ask for."
"你投入在比賽中更多，你就有更強的感受，"Webber表示。"只要我在我得意的位置拿
到球，我可以做任何你想要我做的事。"

The Timberwolves did not score again, due in large part to the admirable
effort Webber did on Garnett, who was held to a quiet 19 points and seven
rebounds.
灰狼自此之後沒有再得分，大部分歸因於Webber將Garnett守得很好，使他只有相對
安靜的19分7籃板。

"They did a (heck) of a job shutting us down down the stretch," Minnesota
coach Dwane Casey said. "We just didn't get a clean look and that has a lot
to do with their defense."
"他們將我們守死直到終場，"灰狼教練Dwane Casey表示。"由於他們的防守，我們無法
有良好的視野。"

With a chance to win the game, Garnett split two defenders and had a
seemingly uncontested dunk before Webber got a piece of the ball, knocking it
out of bounds with 7.3 seconds to go.
灰狼一度有贏球的機會，Garnett閃過兩位防守者扣籃，在沒有對抗的情況下Webber稍稍
碰到球，球彈框而出，時間只剩下7.3秒。

After a timeout, Webber deflected Richie Frahm's pass out of bounds and on
their last chance - with four-tenths of a second left - the Timberwolves
again turned to Garnett, whose shot in the lane was altered by Webber at the
buzzer.
在暫停之後，Webber將Richie Frahm的傳球撥出界，此時只剩零點四秒。灰狼再度將球
交給Garnett，Garnett在Webber面前跳投，但是沒進，同時槍聲響起，比賽結束。

"His defense on Garnett was excellent," Sixers coach Maurice Cheeks said.
"Garnett is going to touch the ball a lot, but Chris' defense on him was more
important that anything."
"他把Garnett守得很好，"七六人總教練Maruice Cheeks說，"Garnett拿到很多球，
但是Chris對他的防守比什麼都關鍵。"

Entering the game averaging only 11.8 points over his last four games, Webber
appeared like the All-Star of old, dominating in every facet of the game. He
finished 13-of-25 from the floor, adding three assists and a pair of blocks
in 44 minutes.
在這場比賽之前，Webber前四場比賽的平均只有11.8分，看起來像是個過氣的明星球員，
但是這場比賽卻在各項紀錄上都有斬獲。在44分鐘裡25投13中，傳出3次助攻，演出兩次
阻攻。

"I told coach that I'm not dead by any means," Webber said. "I'm up for those
challenges. I relish those challenges. Even if (Garnett) made those shots,
it's something that you tell your grandkids about."
"我告訴教練沒有什麼可以打倒我，"Webber說。"我上場就是要面對那些挑戰。我喜歡
接受挑戰。即使Garnett投進了那幾球，我還是有些表現值得你傳頌幾十年。"

The 76ers, who have made a bad habit of squandering double-digit leads in the
fourth quarter, took an 83-73 lead on a three-point play by Korver with just
under four minutes remaining only to allow the Timberwolves to score the next
12 points.
七六人常在第四節花掉兩位數領先的壞習慣再度重演，在KK演出一次三分打將比數拉開到
83-73之後，讓灰狼在剩下的四分鐘內拿下12分。

"A couple of games ago, I was like, 'Here we go again,'" Korver said. "I
don't think that we ever doubted that we were going to win this game. We came
out hard and we played hard. It was a big win for us."
"幾場比賽以前，我可能會想'這情況又重演了'，"Korver說。"我不認為我們曾懷疑
我們能夠贏得這場比賽。我們整場比賽都賣力演出，這對我們來說是場大勝利。"

Minnesota's comeback included a dunk by Trenton Hassell and a layup by Marko
Jaric before Frahm and Wally Szczerbiak nailed consecutive 3-pointers to tie
it. Anthony Carter stole the ball on the Sixers' next possession and
converted a breakaway layup to give the Timberwolves an 85-83 lead with 40
seconds remaining.
灰狼的逆轉包括了Trenton Hassell的灌籃，Marko Jaric的上籃，以及Frahm和Wally
Szczerbiak的連續三分球。Anthony Carter緊接著演出一次抄截，並且上籃得分。
正規賽只剩下40秒。

But Webber made a short hook shot with 23 seconds left to tie it and forced
Garnett into a tough jumper at the buzzer to force overtime.
不過Webber以一個小鉤射在比賽剩下23秒時追平，還讓Garnett在槍響時勉強出手，
迫使比賽進入延長賽。

"(Webber) was our best option as far as putting the ball in the basket,"
Cheeks said.
"當我們想盡力將球弄進籃框時，Webber是我們最好的選擇。"Cheeks說。
(編按：場面話嗎@@)

"Each player wants to believe in his skills and talents," Webber said. "It
takes a while to exhibit what you have. Hopefully, I think that I'm getting
to that point, but there is a long way to go."
"每個球員都對自己的球技和天份深具信心，"Webber說。"這得花了一陣子來展現你所
擁有的。有幸地，我想我已經作到了，不過之後還有很長的路要走。"

Iverson finished with a season-low 19 points. The four-time scoring champion
added 10 assists, but committed seven turnovers. Korver added 13 and Andre
Iguodala 10 for Philadelphia, which has won three straight following a
four-game losing streak.
Iverson這場比賽得到本季最低的19分。這位四屆得分王送出10次助攻，但同時也造成
7次失誤。Korver拿下13分而Iggy有10分。七六人在四連敗之後已經三連勝。

"It's good to put a streak together, no matter who you are playing in the
NBA," Webber said. "It's good to get a win and get some encouraging things
going. When you lose, it affects your life."
"連勝的感覺很好，不管你在NBA扮演什麼角色，"Webber說。"贏球的感覺很好並且能夠
可以激勵人心。當你輸了，你的生活都會受影響。"

"Webber looked great tonight," Garnett said. "Not to say that he's been
struggling with his shot, but Korver and A.I. have been carrying that team a
little bit."
"Webber今晚看起來很棒，"Garnett表示。"即使不能說他在投籃低潮裡掙扎了一陣子，
Korver跟A.I也已經撐住這支隊伍好一陣子了。

Szczerbiak led the Timberwolves with 23 points on 8-of-14 shooting. Jaric
added 14 points and 10 assists for Minnesota, which had its road winning
streak halted at five.
Szczerbiak拿下灰狼全隊最高的23分，14投8中的成績。Jaric有14分10助攻，但是灰狼
的客場連勝終止在五場。

"We thought once we got into overtime, we'd be fine," Szczerbiak said. "But
we just couldn't get over the hump."
"我們認為即使我們進入延長賽，我們也會贏球，"Szczerbiak說。"但是我們還是沒能
度過這個難關。"
