青賽本賽季的最後一個挑戰

C's Prep for Final Test as Playoff Seedings Pend
Apr 12, 2016 11:21 AM ET
WALTHAM, Mass. - The Boston Celtics hit the court at their training facility T
uesday afternoon for one final practice before discovering their postseason fa
te.
禮拜二下午的練習 準備揭開季後賽的序幕
One game remains for fifth-placed Boston: A must-win showdown against the four
th-placed Miami Heat Wednesday night at TD Garden.
剩下一場比賽 排名第五的青賽
必須在主場擊敗排名第四的熱火
The season finale between those two teams will likely be the determining facto
r of whether or not the C's clinch home court for the first round of the Playo
ffs. Securing that advantage is certainly the goal for Boston's coaching staff
and players.
季後賽第一輪很可能是這兩隻球隊的對決
因此保有主場優勢是非常重要的
"We'll do everything we can to control that and it starts with a win tomorrow,
" said Isaiah Thomas after swishing a few warm-up shots ahead of practice. "Ho
pefully we can get fourth place and have home court in the first round because
it will definitely help us."
「我們會竭盡所能贏下來」矮笑湯說
「能擠到第四名然後保有主場優勢很重要」
Added teammate Jae Crowder, "It's important because we worked so hard. We put
a great year together to put ourselves in position to write our own script, so
we just want to finish the right way."
Jae說 這是我們努力了一整年所贏得的
我們只是需要按照原訂計劃實行即可
At the moment, the race between the third and sixth seeds is tremendously clos
e. Atlanta is currently holding onto third place with a 48-33 record, Miami is
right behind the Hawks at 47-33, and Boston and Charlotte hold identical 47-3
4 records.
此刻 東區第三與第六排名很接近
老鷹隊48-33 熱火隊47-33
青賽跟黃蜂都是47-34
The highest Playoff seed the Celtics can obtain is No. 4, and depending on Eas
tern Conference results over the next couple of days, they could potentially d
rop down to No. 6.
青賽最高能拿到的順位是第四
最差的話是掉到第六
Though just one game remains for the C's, there are six different scenarios th
at can determine their seeding. Brad Stevens was handed a layout of those poss
ibilities before practice, and that sheet certainly raised an eyebrow in confu
sion as he scanned over them.
就算只剩下一場比賽 但競爭激烈可見一般
BS甚至在談到預測排名時皺起眉頭
"Somebody just put on my desk all the scenarios and I said, 'Do you mind throw
ing that away?'" Stevens recounted with a slight smile. "It's a headache to ev
en try to figure out."
「可以把這東西(排名預測)拿走嗎?」BS說
「要搞懂這東西讓我的頭很痛啊啊啊」
Here's the list of the Playoff scenarios that is likely lying at the bottom of
Stevens' waste bin:
以下的排名猜測是從BS垃圾桶底部撿起來的
Celtics earn the No. 4 seed if: Celtics beat Heat and Heat lose to Pistons ton
ight Celtics beat Heat and Hornets beat Magic Celtics beat Heat and Hawks beat
Wizards Celtics earn the No. 5 seed if: Celtics beat Heat, Heat beat Pistons,
Hawks lose to Wizards and Hornets lose to Magic Celtics lose to Heat and Horn
ets lose to Magic Celtics earn the No. 6 seed if: Celtics lose to Heat and Hor
nets beat Magic
青賽贏熱火 熱火輸活塞
青賽贏熱火 黃蜂贏魔術
青賽贏熱火 老鷹贏巫師 則青賽第四
青賽贏熱火 熱火贏活塞
老鷹輸巫師 黃蜂輸魔術 則青賽第五
青賽輸熱火 黃蜂贏魔術 則青賽第六
(靠腰我頭也開始痛了)
Considering the mindset of this Celtics team, perhaps it's fitting that the ab
ove list has been mentally trashed as the C's head into their final contest.
全隊上下一心準備背水一戰
This is a squad that plays one game at a time and one possession at a time, wi
th the mentality that it should only focus on what it can control.
這群人一次只打一場比賽 專注一場比賽
把握所有自己可以控制的因素
"I'm not going to concern myself with things I can't control," explained Steve
ns. "I think no matter what in the Playoffs you can't be a dud on the road and
expect to win a Playoff series. And you can't be good but inconsistent at hom
e and expect to win a Playoff series. You just have to play well in the games
that you have."
「我不會擔心我無法控制的事情」BS說
「我不覺得客場不奪勝有辦法晉級、
就算主場一條龍,能夠全勝也一樣,
每一場比賽都必須全力應付才行。」
Boston has not done so in its last two games, falling at the hands of Atlanta
Saturday night and Charlotte Monday night. Those losses may fuel the C's as th
ey take the parquet floor one more time to close out the regular season. After
that, they will embrace any opponent at any location during the first round o
f the postseason.
不過過去兩場我們只說不做
分別輸給老鷹跟黃蜂 讓最後的排名充滿刺激
"Our team, as bitter a taste as we may feel from last night, has put ourselves
in a great position all year with their play," said Stevens. "These guys have
really done a lot of good things and we look forward to playing whoever we pl
ay, wherever we play when that time comes."
「輸球令人北宋,但大家已經努力了快一年」
「讓我們一起準備好面對接下來的比賽」
Obtaining home court advantage certainly is a goal of Boston's, as Thomas and
Crowder previously explained. At the same time, they agree that it's not a com
plete necessity to experience postseason success.
拿到主場優勢是青賽的目標
同時也是矮笑湯跟Jae的目標
他們同時認為若拿下主場優勢
對季後賽而言會是個很棒的開始與體驗
"At the end of the day, you still have to go and win games on someone else's c
ourt," said Crowder. "That's what the postseason is all about. Of course we wa
nt to start the postseason off at home, but it's not the end of the world if w
e don't. We'll go handle our business and try to put together a good series an
d try to take care of business that way."
「最後一場比賽還是要盡力去贏下來,
這就是季賽的意思(爭取排名)
我們當然想要在主場打第一戰,
但若沒有也不會世界末日,反正我們習慣了
如何狀況之下我們都會想辦法拿下系列戰的勝利。」
Jae說
First, Boston must handle one final regular-season task, one that will likely
determine its postseason fate in regard to its first-round opponent and Game 1
location.
首先 青賽本季賽的最後一個挑戰
就是打贏也許是季後賽第一輪的對手喔。
