[外絮] Trail Blazers-Knicks Preview
Trail Blazers-Knicks Preview
By SANTOSH VENKATARAMAN Posted Mar 14 2012 12:48AM
Neither the New York Knicks nor the Portland Trail Blazers look like playoff
teams right now.
不管是尼克或是拓荒者目前看起來都不像是一只季後賽的球隊。
It's safe to say the tailspin the Knicks are going through is more worrying.
"尼克一蹶不振的情況可能雪上加霜"這是目前合情理的説法。
New York looks to avoid its first seven-game slide in more than two seasons
Wednesday night when it hosts a stumbling Portland team that has dropped six of
eight.
尼克尋求避免近兩個賽季以來首次的七連敗。星期二晚上面對的拓荒者近8戰6負。
New York (18-24) has lost six in a row for the second time this season.
Although the Knicks endured three six-game skids last season and managed to
reach the playoffs for the first time since 2003-04, they know they need to get
back on track.
尼克嘗到本賽季第二次的六連敗。儘管上賽季尼克也曾經克服三度六連敗並且自03/04賽季
以來首度打進季後賽,但是他們現在需要讓球隊重新振作回到正軌。
That's particularly the case since they are tied for the Eastern Conference's
eighth and final playoff spot with Milwaukee, which appeared close to pulling
off a blockbuster deal Tuesday by acquiring Monta Ellis, forward Ekpe Udoh and
center Kwame Brown from Golden State.
特別是他們被公鹿追平了同時佔據東區老八也就是季後賽最後一席名額的時候。而公鹿已
經接近完成涉及Monta Ellis,Ekpe Udoh和Kwame Brown三個勇士球員的重磅交易。
(譯注:原文發稿時 還沒完成交易)
"We're eighth place, we're in a dogfight. Should you worry about it? No, you
shouldn't," Knicks coach Mike D'Antoni said. "I think everybody understands
the stakes and they have to know it's disappointing to lose one like this,
but they have to know we played better and they have to know Wednesday we
start to try to keep eighth place, or better."
"我們處於第八的位置,現在是刀刃相見的情況。你需要擔心嗎?不,你不需要",D'Antoni
表示。"我認為大家都知道它的重要性以及了解失去這個位置感覺,但是我們必須知道我們
是越打越好然後明白我們需要在星期三的比賽中努力保八或是更好。"
Carmelo Anthony has failed to mesh with newcomer Jeremy Lin. Anthony's
average of 21.3 points is his lowest since his second season, and his 40
percent shooting is by far the worst mark of his nine-year career.
"Right now times are tough, so I'm not going to get through it by myself,"
Anthony said. "Nobody is going to get through it by themselves. We need
everybody."
甜瓜和Lin的磨合還沒成功。甜瓜場均21.3分是他自球員生涯第二個賽季以來的新低,40%
投籃命中率是生涯最差的。"這是一個困難的時刻,我沒辦法靠我自己去克服它。"甜瓜表
示。"沒有人可以,我們需要彼此齊心合力。"
Portland (20-22) likely has little sympathy after trailing by as many as 29
points in Tuesday's 92-75 loss at Indiana that dropped it into last place in
the Northwest Division. The Trail Blazers have made the playoffs the last
three seasons but are not in the West's current top eight.
在星期二晚上一度落後29分最終以75比92輸個溜馬 且在西北組掉到最後一名的的拓荒者的
應該不會再和尼克的比賽中手下留情。雖然拓荒者在過去三個賽季都曾經殺入季後賽,但
是目前他們不在前八的排名裡。
LaMarcus Aldridge scored 17 points for the Blazers, who shot a season-low
31.3 percent from the field and made a season-worst 20 field goals.
Aldridge為拓荒者得到17分,拓荒者本場比賽創賽季新低31.3%命中率和最差的命中僅20顆
球。
Portland's five assists were the fewest by an NBA team this season.
全場5個助攻更是本賽季所有球隊中最差的。
"The missing shots definitely hurt us," guard Nolan Smith said. "We obviously
shot badly, and we let that affect our defense. As a team, you never let
offense affect defense. But we did, and it just snowballed from there."
"那些失投真的太傷了"Smith表示。"我們的投籃真的很爛,同時讓這影響到我們的防守。
作為一個好的球隊,你不能讓這事情發生。但是我們沒做好,結果事情就越來越糟。"
Portland is 6-15 on the road, where several Blazers seem to be entirely
different players. Gerald Wallace averages 17.1 points at home compared to
9.2 on the road and Wesley Matthews is at 14.7 at home and 9.3 away.
拓荒者客場僅6勝15負,同時有些球員的表現也是徹底的兩極化。Wallace主場場均17.1分
而客場則是9.2分,Matthews主場14.7分客場9.3分。
The Blazers will get their first look this season at Lin, who turned in one
of his two double-digit efforts last season with Golden State when he had 12
points versus Portland on April 13, 2011.
本場比賽也將是拓荒者本賽季首度面對Lin,而Lin這位在上賽季代表勇士出賽而有兩場得
分雙位數的比賽中的一場就是在2011年4月13日面對拓荒者打出的。
Lin is shooting 39.1 percent and averaging 16.2 points during the Knicks'
slide. He missed 20 of 29 total shots in defeats Sunday to Philadelphia and
Monday to Chicago.
Lin在尼克六連敗期間投籃命中率39.1% 場均16.2分。但在上兩場和76人和公牛的比賽中29
投僅有9中。
This is the lone matchup of 2011-12 between New York and Portland after they
split two last season.
這將會是尼克和拓荒者11/12賽季中僅有的一場對決,上賽季兩隊對戰各取得2勝2負。
