Carlisle barked, interrupting the question. "That's right. It's only one game." Carlisle打斷了提問，他大吼：「對!沒錯！就只是一場比賽而已！」 It was a nice sentiment, particularly after the Mavs posted a franchise low playoff points total on 29.8 percent shooting from the field. It was just one night, and ostensibly the Mavs would turn the page and move ahead preparing for Game 2. But really, after the blowout in Game 1, would a fresh start make much of a difference? After all, the Mavs would be facing a Thunder team that seemed to be peaking, and Dallas would be without an injured J.J. Barea and David Lee, with Deron Williams listed as a game time decision. What a difference two days makes. 有這種情緒反應很好，特別是小牛剛打出了季後賽比分新低和命中率慘淡的29.8%。這只一個晚上，很明顯的，小牛會挺過去，繼續備戰Game2。但在第一場慘敗後，小牛真的能重新站起來，表現得不一樣嗎？畢竟小牛傷了J.J. Barea 和David Lee，Deron Williams 還在觀察名單中，而雷霆似乎正在他們的巔峰狀態。這兩天到底發生了什麼改變？ Tonight it was the Thunder who couldn't buy a basket, and the zombie Mavs managed to hang around and hang around, until time finally ran out on the Thunder by the slimmest of margins. Dallas evened the series at one game apiece, with an 85-84 win. 今晚換雷霆找不到籃框，而且小牛球員像活尸一樣死纏著他們直到鐘響的最後一刻。小牛以85-84追平了系列賽。 Coming into the series, Dallas emphasized getting out to strong starts against the Thunder, who were one of the NBA's best first quarter teams during the regular season. While Game 1's first quarter ended with OKC on top 26-11, in Game 2 the Mavs managed to end the first quarter with a 24-20 lead. As Dirk Nowitzki said, "For us to have a lead after the first quarter kind of set us up to be in the game for the rest of the night, and come up with the close win at the end." 小牛在這個系列賽中努力地在第一節對抗雷霆的強悍開場。雷霆在常規賽裡是首節表現最佳的球隊之一。Game1第一節雷霆以26-11領先，而Game2第一節小牛已經超前，以24-20的領先作收。Dirk說: 「在第一節取得比分領先讓我們準備好面對剩餘的比賽，而且在最後險勝。」 For the Thunder, things seemed off from the start. Even Westbrook's pregame dance routine with Cameron Payne was interrupted by a couple of interloping Mavs (Westbrook later waved off the gamesmanship, saying "That's for the guys who don't play"). 對雷霆來說，比賽似乎從一開始就脫離了他們的掌握。Westbrook和Payne的賽前舞蹈還被小牛隊打斷。 Kevin Durant tried just about everything within reason to get going and keep the Thunder in the game. He pulled up, he drove, he spun, he used his rip move, he went to Dirk Nowitzki's trademark fadeaway jumper, he played a spell at power forward for the first time in the series, he pleaded with the officials...heck, Durant even changed shoes at halftime, switching from a pair of Nike KD 8s to a pair of KD 8 Elites. KD已經在合理範圍內用盡所有方法來幫助雷霆了。他急停、他空切、他轉身過人、他用 rip move、他去守Dirk的招牌後仰、他向裁判抱怨……，他甚至在中場換了鞋子。 But on this night, nothing worked. Durant finished the game 7-for-33 from the floor, including 2-for-11 on 3-pointers. Although he totaled 21 points, it was the most missed shots in a game in Kevin Durant's postseason career. 但是今晚KD所作的一切都不管用。KD投33中7，三分投11中2，創下他自己季後賽史上最低命中率。 "No excuses. I've just got to make them next time," Durant said. "I've got to be better and put the work in. I'm going to have nights like that, that is a part of the business. I've just got to keep staying confident and my teammates and my coaches stay confident in me." KD表示:「我沒有藉口。我下次必須命中那些球。我必須表現得更好。有時候就是這樣，我會表現不好。我必須保持信心，我的隊友和教練也會對我有信心。」 Meanwhile, Dallas guard Deron Williams started and couldn't miss, as he hit three 3-pointers to score 11 points in the first quarter. Williams was battling a sports hernia, which has limited him for several weeks, and he finished with 13 points and 5 assists in 26 minutes, before exiting for good midway through the third quarter. 另一方面，小牛的DW先發，而且當他在第一節砍下三分，得到11分的時候，他沒有miss任何一球。DW有疝氣的毛病，這對他造成好幾週的限制，他最終上場26分鐘，得到13分5助攻。 "None of this would be possible without Deron Wiliams," Carlisle said. "His effort in the Utah game a week ago tonight, he played a huge game that night. It was his second game back after an over-two-week hiatus, and that game got us in the playoffs. Tonight, had he not played the first 26 minutes, we wouldn't be in position to win. He kept the confidence level of the club up." Carlisle稱讚子弟兵:「沒有DW我們沒辦法贏。上周對爵士，他表現得非常出色。那是他傷癒歸來的第二場球，他就把我們帶進季後賽。今晚，沒有他前26分鐘的表現，我們沒辦法贏。他帶給我們信心。」 When Williams exited, Raymond Felton picked up the slack. The 11th year veteran who averaged 9.5 points per game in the regular season, came alive against the Thunder, finishing with 21 points to lead Dallas, including a huge layup over Thunder big man Steven Adams with 28.7 seconds remaining to give Dallas an 83-81 lead. Moments later, Wesley Matthews converted following a steal to push the Dallas lead to four. DW下場後，Raymond Felton跳了出來。這位打了11個球季的老將平均每場砍下9.5分，他在打雷霆的時候活躍起來，豪取21分帶領小牛取得領先。當中還包括比賽時間只剩28.7秒時，在Steven Adams面前的一個大號上籃，讓小牛取得83-81領先。然後Wesley Matthews 又把小牛領先拉開到四分。 Though the Thunder have struggled in the fourth quarter -- as NBA.com's John Schuhmann notes in his series numbers preview -- they weren't finished just yet. Despite Durant's struggles, Donovan said, "I was never going to tell him not to shoot." Durant drained the three to shave the Mavs lead to one with 9.5 seconds remaining. 雖然雷霆第四節打得很掙扎，KD打得很掙扎，但他們沒有那麼簡單被擊敗。Donovan說:「我永遠不會叫KD別投球。」KD在鐘響前9.5秒砍進一個三分，把比數追了上來。 After Felton missed two free throws, the Thunder's final possession was a microcosm of their entire night: Durant's layup attempt was blocked by Dallas rookie Justin Anderson; the ball fell to Russell Westbrook, who missed the putback; Steven Adams got to the miss and tipped it up and through, and as the crowd celebrated and streamers streamed from the ceiling, a video review showed that the shot was too late, preserving the win for Dallas. Felton竟然投丟了兩顆罰球（囧），雷霆最後一波進攻是他們整晚比賽的縮影：KD上籃被 Justin Anderson蓋掉；Westbrook撿到球，沒有補進；Steven Adams補進，但是當觀眾在歡呼、彩帶飄過天花板的時候，錄影回顧顯示那一球投晚了，小牛保住了勝利。 The teams will now head south to Dallas for Games 3 and 4, with the Mavs suddenly holding home court advantage. While there's no telling which players will be healthy enough to play for Dallas -- "Ask Mother Nature," Carlisle quipped -- as the Mavs proved in Game 2, questioning their desire or drive is a losing game. Game3和4在達拉斯舉行。小牛守住了主場優勢。現在還不能確定那些小牛球員能夠健康的打球，Carlisle說:「不如就問天吧。」 "Every time we came in the huddle, even after they were making runs, guys were encouraging each other to hang in there, keep banging away," Carlisle said. "That's what we've been doing the last three weeks: banging away. And that's what we're going to keep doing." 「每次我們陷入泥沼，即使是敵人先馳得點之後，我們都會彼此鼓勵，繼續撐下去，奮戰下去。這是過去三週我們不停在做的事情，奮戰下去。這也是我們會繼續做的。」 -- 小牛劇場超精彩，忍不住想翻一篇 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 140.112.4.206 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/NBA/M.1461133864.A.820.html
