※ [本文轉錄自 Lakers 看板] 作者: OdomLamar (LamarOdom) 看板: Lakers 標題: [外電] Kobe Bryant's role is limited, but other Lakers step int 時間: Fri May 16 01:47:21 2008 來源：http://0rz.tw/f440r Bill Plaschke A sore back limits the Lakers star, but Pau Gasol and Lamar Odom rise to the occasion, and others step up their play too as they defeat Jazz to take 3-2 series lead. 背痛困擾著神，但Gasol和Odom在重大戰役中不肯妥協，還有其他小弟都站出來保護大哥，與大哥一起將爵士推入3:2的懸崖邊。 Kobe's back? 大哥的背？ The Lakers had it. 還在！ This time, his teammates would not be ignored. This time, his teammates would not be still. 這次，他的弟兄們不再被忽略了，這次，他的兄弟們不再沈靜了。 This time, the spasms were in their shaking fists and screaming voices. 這次，他們的激情，在他們揮舞的拳頭裡，在他們忘情的吶喊聲裡。 The time, the guys who collapsed in pain were dressed in Jazz. 這次，這些男人不再與爵士的血戰中疼痛而倒下。 On a night when Kobe Bryant's sore back limited him, his maligned teammates hoisted him, and this is why the Lakers are now just one win from the NBA Western Conference finals after a 111-104 victory over the Jazz in the tiebreaking Game 5 at Staples Center. 這個夜晚，大哥因為背痛而受限，但隊友們將大哥舉起，一起衝鋒陷陣。湖人，在西區系列戰第二輪與爵士的血戰，111-104擊倒了強悍的爵士，為什麼？因為這群強悍的隊友們強力捍衛著大哥。 One win needed, two games to get it. And if the Lakers can't finish off this series on Bryant's back, well, after the fourth quarter Wednesday, we know there are plenty of shoulders around to carry him. 還有一場，接下來兩場戰役，他們必須要拿下其一。如果大哥的背無法跟大家走完比賽全程，沒關係，今日的第四節小弟們告訴他，死也要扛著大哥往前衝。 There are the shoulders of Pau Gasol, who in a few quick seconds became the giant everyone imagined, grabbing two huge offensive rebounds and scoring twice after the Jazz pulled to within one point in the final minute. 扛著大哥走的，Pau Gasol。他在幾秒鐘內成為讓人無法忘懷的巨人，血肉爵士在最後一分鐘內將比分拉至一分內時，他站了出來抓下兩個巨大的籃板，並且兩度強悍取分。 Then there were the shoulders of Lamar Odom, who threw down a late dunk that rattled the room while throwing defensive elbows and hands that rattled the Jazz. 扛著大哥走的，Lamar Odom。他的手臂和手掌強力阻擋爵士的侵犯，比賽晚期的強力灌籃，震撼了整個賽場。 Gasol "made huge plays, he and Lamar both," Bryant said afterward. 大哥說，「Gasol達成重大的使命，還有Lamar一起扛著我。」 And what about his back? 那，大哥的背呢？ "It really got sore in the fourth quarter, it kind of stiffened, and my teammates picked me up," he said. 「第四節時真的是痛極了，幾乎到了僵硬的地步，但我的隊友們打死不退的拉著我走。」 How much was he picked up? Are you ready for some of the most amazing statistics of the season? 你們知道他的隊友們怎麼拉他嗎？你準備好聽看看下面這個駭人聽聞的可怕統計數字了嗎？ The most important quarter of the Lakers' season, and Kobe Bryant did not take one shot. 這是湖人本季最重大的12分鐘，但大哥卻在這12分鐘裡出手0次 The most pressure-filled quarter in many of these young players' careers, and their leader helped them with only two assists. 對這些年輕人來說，這是他們生涯壓力最沈重的一節，但他們的老大卻只貢獻了2次助攻而已。 And yes, one of the loudest, sweatiest quarters of the season, and the Lakers didn't make one turnover. 是的，這也是最響亮也最甜蜜的一節，因為他們這一節失誤0次！ Yeah, the Lakers outscored the Jazz, 30-23, in that final quarter with brilliant play by every forgotten player. 是的，湖人在這節以30-23強壓爵士，這些令人難忘的弟兄們爭相跳出來發光發熱。 "They tried collapsing on me, so I had to kick it out to our shooters," said Bryant, who made three free throws in the final minute of the game. 在最後一分鐘罰進三球的老大說，「他們嘗試利用血肉想要擊垮我，所以我必須把球分向我們的射手們。」 Shooters, shoulders, all of them showing up after being chilled only three days earlier in a controversial Game 4 loss in Utah. 這群射手們、還有老大依靠著的肩膀，他們曾經在被擊倒的第四戰裡的表現令人心寒。 Entering the fourth quarter, with the score tied at 81 and an exhausted Bryant sitting on the bench, the Lakers' lineup consisted of Sasha Vujacic, Vladimir Radmanovic, Gasol, Luke Walton and Jordan Farmar. 當比賽進入第四節，81-81平手，而快油盡燈枯的老大坐在板凳上，而湖人在場上的是紫金五白，Sasha Vujacic、Vladimir Radmanovic、Gasol、Luke Walton及Jordan Farmar。 These were some of the same guys who were blown away by the Jazz's second unit at the start of the fourth quarter in Game 4, leading to a public scolding by Coach Phil Jackson. 但這也是在第四戰第四節的初期被爵士後輩部隊擊垮的同一批人，也因此遭致禪師的公開責備。 These were also some of the same guys who were ignored by Bryant in the overtime of that game, leading to criticism of Bryant by some, and support of Bryant by Jackson. 這也是在那場戰役的延長賽裡被老大所忽略的同一批人，也因而遭到老大的微詞，以及禪師對老大的力挺。 In other words, these guys were in the eye of Sunday's storm. 也就是說，這一群人幾乎是第四戰的風暴中心。 And suddenly, Wednesday, they were the storm. 但，剎那間，今晚，他們成了風暴。 Radmanovic made a three-pointer to start the quarter. Walton threw up a shot at the shot-clock buzzer to draw a foul, leading to another point. Radmanovic用三分彈開啟第四節的爭鬥。 Walton在一次攻擊時間快到時爭到了一次犯規，然後罰得了一分。 Gasol scored on a layup from Radmanovic, then, midway through the quarter, the much-maligned Farmar gave the Lakers their final push toward home. Gasol從Radmanovic那接獲傳球上籃取分，接著這節的中段戰，最令人心寒的Farmar跳出來，捍衛湖人的堡壘。 Yes, that was him faking out Deron Williams and scoring on a layup. Yes, that was him being fouled on the play and making the ensuing free throw. 沒錯，就是他的假動作騙過了Deron Williams，然後上籃攻分。是的，就是他造成了犯規，然後又加罰進了重大的罰球。 And, yes, that was him being slapped joyfully on the head by Bryant as he came to the bench amid the night's loudest ovation. 對的，就是他在走向板凳時受到老大拍擊腦袋的慶賀，也是今晚全場最令人振奮的時刻。 Before the game, Jackson stated the obvious. 開賽前，禪師講得很明白。 "They've held serve, we've held serve, now it's time for us to step up and hold serve," he said. "That's what this is all about." 「他們保有發球權，我們也有，而現在，該是時候要挺身而出，並且堅持到底。這也是我們所有該做的事。」 But who would have thought it would be the other guys swinging the racquet? 但又有誰會想到是其他人跳出來舞動這命運的球拍？ In that fourth quarter, the Lakers' defense held the Jazz to 33% shooting, and stayed within two rebounds of the physical team. 第四節，湖人把爵士的命中率降至33%，然後籃板也僅落後這支血肉球隊兩個。 Before the game, Utah Coach Jerry Sloan said he figured Bryant would play through his pain. 比賽前，猶他教皇Jerry Sloan就認為Kobe Bryant將會帶著傷痛上場。 "He puts the uniform on . . . he goes to another level," Sloan said. "I'm sorry to talk about it like that, but I'm just being honest with you." Sloan說，「他一樣穿上了戰袍，然後走向另一個層次。我很抱歉講這樣的話，但我只是誠實以對而已。」 To be honest with him, it was everyone else playing at the other level Wednesday. 但事實上是，其他的弟兄們將自己帶往另一個層次去了。 "We're starting to believe we can compete with these guys," Sloan said after the game. Sloan賽後表示，「我們正開始相信我們可以和這些人戰爭。」 To be honest with him, if the Lakers' role players keep starring this way, the Jazz doesn't have a chance. 誠實的對他說吧。如果湖人這些角色球員持續的凝聚，爵士根本不會有機會。 Kobe's back? 大哥的背？ The Lakers had it. 你轉身看看這些弟兄就能明瞭了。 -- 無兄弟不籃球？ -- -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 123.50.41.29
