'D' is for Davis? Apparently
Davis的D是指防守？現在似乎是的
You would expect any calling card the Timberwolves' Ricky Davis would carry
would include something to the effect of, "Have basketball, will shoot"
printed on it.
你可以預期到，在灰狼Ricky Davis的使用說明內，印著以下的字眼，「當拿到籃球時，
就會投籃。」
But in recent games, as teams have worked to push him out of the offensive
mix, Davis has contributed the most by playing strong defense and passing the
ball.
但是在這幾場比賽，當他沒有辦法融入球隊的進攻時，Davis用好的防守和傳球來做出貢
獻。
Casey said he has seen a marked jump in Davis' defense starting with the Nov.
25 game with the Clippers, when Davis asked for and got the assignment of
covering Sam Cassell in the fourth quarter. Cassell, on fire most of that
game, was doused as the Wolves staged an impressive fourth-quarter comeback.
Casey說他認為當Davis在11月25日對快艇比賽的第四節，主動要求去防守Sam Cassell的
成績，是最明顯的例子。大半場比賽都處於火力全開狀態的Cassell，被Davis澆熄後，灰
狼打出了讓人驚訝的第四節逆轉秀。
In the Wolves' victory over Houston on Wednesday, Davis made only one of
seven shots, but he had seven rebounds and nine assists while playing strong
defense.
在星期三對火箭的勝利中，Davis只有投7中1，但是他展現強力的防守，外帶7個籃板和9
次助攻。
"It's been my focus this year," said Davis, who scored 21 points in the
Wolves' 110-103 victory over Utah on Friday night. "Last year, with the groin
injury, I didn't play defense as well. I'm trying to round my game. If I'm
1-for-7, I have to do other things. I feel myself growing and maturing as a
player."
「這是我今年專注的目標，」在星期五晚上灰狼以110-103取勝爵士一役拿下21分的Davis
說。「去年因為鼠蹊部受傷，我沒有做出很好的防守。我試著每場比賽都要有貢獻。如果
我只投7中1，我必須做些其他的事來幫助球隊。我覺得我自己正在成長和成為一名成熟的
球員。」
Etc.
An MRI on Mark Madsen's right shoulder confirmed that it had popped out of
joint during some physical play Wednesday. But it showed no other significant
damage, Madsen said. Still, he did not play Friday against Utah and might not
make the trip to Chicago.
Mark Madsen的右肩MRI報告顯示星期三的一些碰撞play有些影響。但是Madsen說並沒有其
他明顯的傷勢。仍然，他星期五沒有上場對爵士，而且也許不會和球隊一起去Chicago。
