Allen Iverson, ever the assist man, spotted his powdered-blue brethren,
arms wide open. Like he had done all night, Iverson sent a surge through
the Pepsi Center crowd - this time, by tossing his sneakers into Section
146.
現在樂於幫助隊友的 Allen Iverson,今晚看到他穿淺藍色球衣的隊友們,張開
雙臂熱情迎接。Iverson 的情緒總是引起主場球迷的歡呼,就像他今晚的表現一
樣。這次,他則是把他的球鞋丟到146區的座位上。
At this point in the Nuggets' blowout of the Knicks, Denver led by 33 in
the fourth quarter, and Iverson and the starters were on the bench, told
they wouldn't need their sneakers for the rest of the night. Iverson
confirmed that.
這時候正是第四節,金塊隊在這場大屠殺領先33分的時候,Iverson 與其他的先發
球員坐在板凳上,A.I.告訴他們,今晚再也用不到穿在腳上的那雙鞋了。Iverson
扔球鞋的動作再次確認這點。
His Nuggets (7-3) won their fifth straight game Saturday night, 115-83, a
bludgeoning speckled with revenge. On Nov. 6, the Knicks (2-7) outscored
the Nuggets 37-20 in the fourth quarter, and Denver lost by seven. The next
night, the Nuggets lost by 26 at Boston. They're undefeated since then.
他的金塊隊(7勝3敗)在禮拜六贏得五連勝,118-83狠狠了報了一箭之仇。11月6日
,尼克隊(2勝7敗)在第四節打出37比20的攻勢,最後金塊以7分落敗。隔天晚上,金
塊隊在波士頓狂輸26分,從那時候開始,金塊隊變成了不敗之師。
"We were talking on the bench - the Boston game was probably the best thing
that happened to us, getting beat the way we did up there," Nuggets
starting forward Kenyon Martin said. "We turned it around since that point.
Just the team coming together and buying into everything we need to in
order to win."
金塊先發大前鋒 Kenyon Martin 說:「那時候我們做在板凳區談論著,這場比賽對
我們來說,也許會是好事,他們用我們贏球的方式,狠狠教訓了我們。我們從那時
候開始,扭轉了整個局勢,我們開始團結一致,不管球隊需要什麼,我們都努力去
做,一切只為了勝利。」
Iverson finished with 23 points, Carmelo Anthony had a game-high 24 and the
Nuggets turned the ball over a season- low 11 times, a telling statistic,
even more so considering they had just three turnovers at the half, when
they led 57-43.
Iverson 最後拿了23分,Melo 攻下全場最高24分,金塊隊也只發生本季最低的11次
失誤,上半場只有3次失誤,沒意外地以57比43領先。
After three quarters, they led 84-56, thanks to center Marcus Camby's
efforts, which prompted coach George Karl to say: "I've coached a lot of
games, and I don't know if I've seen a better defensive quarter in my
life."
第三節打完他們以84比56領先,這要感謝中鋒勉族的努力,他的表現讓老爹不禁
讚嘆:「我帶過很多場比賽,但是我不知道在我的執教生涯裡,有沒有哪一節比賽
的防守,做的比今天第三節更好。」
In those 12 minutes, Camby tallied eight rebounds and five blocks. For the
night - mind you, he played just 28 minutes - Camby finished with a game-
high 20 rebounds and tied for a team-high six assists. He also scored six
points and had the five blocks, too.
整節12分鐘裡,Camby 拉下8個籃板,搧了5個火鍋。提醒你,今晚他只打了28分鐘。
勉族最後抓下20個籃板球,傳出追平整場比賽最高的6次助攻。他也得到6分,外帶
5個火鍋。
"It's a good feeling when you don't have to play in the fourth quarter,"
Camby said.
Camby 說:「第四節不需要再上場的感覺真的很爽阿!」
For the third time this week, a team stumbled into Denver after playing 24
hours before. And Friday, the Knicks-Kings game went to double overtime in
Sacramento, the home team finally winning 123-118.
這禮拜第三次,只休息24小時的客隊都在丹佛慘敗。禮拜五尼克隊作客沙加緬度,
這場比賽打到二次延長才分勝負,最後國王拿下勝利。
The Knicks came to town accompanied by a circus organ. In the past month,
coach Isiah Thomas lost a civil sexual harassment case and then found
himself feuding with Stephon Marbury, the anger spilling into the pages of
the New York tabloids. Oh, and they had lost five straight, their last win
against the Nuggets.
無止盡的鬧劇伴隨著尼克隊來到這個城市,一個月前,教練 Isiah Thomas 在性騷
擾的官司中敗訴,然後發現自己與 Stephon Marbury 的關係已經水火不容,紐約小
報的內頁充斥著這些憤怒,還有,他們已經五連敗,上次贏球就是在金塊手上拿下
的。
In the weeks after the game, Karl made reference to the Knicks' 70 points
in the paint that night, a gluttonous total. It was even written on the
Nuggets' locker room dry-erase board before Saturday's game. The Knicks
scored just 42 points in the paint at Pepsi Center while Denver scored 52.
Also, the Nuggets had 28 fast- break points, the Knicks six.
那場比賽之後的這些禮拜以來, Karl 一直因為尼克隊那場比賽高達70分的禁區得
分而耿耿於懷,這個數字甚至在今天開賽前,被寫在休息室的白板上。最後尼克隊
這場比賽的禁區得分只有42分,金塊隊52分;快攻得分金塊則是28比6大勝。
The only moment of doubt was in the third quarter, when Martin headed to
the locker room, limping and wincing. Naturally, onlookers cringed,
thinking it was his surgically repaired knee. Martin said it was back
spasms.
本場比賽唯一令人緊張的時刻在第三節,K-Mart 帶著不適的表情一瘸一瘸走進休息
室。自然,旁觀者不免害怕起來,擔心會不會是他那動了手術的膝蓋。Martin 告訴
大家,是他的背部抽筋。
"I had them before and they went away, so hopefully that will be the case
this time," he said. "We've got a couple of days before we play again."
他表示:「我以前有這樣的傷勢,不過已經無大礙了,希望這次也一樣沒事。我們
在下場比賽之前還可以休息個幾天。」
When they play again, it will be against another reeling team, the Chicago
Bulls, on Tuesday at the Pepsi Center. Fans should beware of flying
objects.
下場比賽,禮拜二在主場,他們將面對另一支進況不好的球隊,芝加哥公牛。
球迷們可要小心,不要被不名飛行物體打到了。
Nuggets Recap What you might have missed
金塊本日短評:你可能不知道的事。
Denver outscored New York in all four quarters, and it has now either
outscored or tied its opponents for 14 consecutive quarters, dating back to
the third quarter at Indiana on Nov. 10.
金塊隊這場比賽每節得分都高於尼克,他們現在已經連續14節比賽,分數沒有輸過
對手了。上一節分數少於對手勢在11月10日,面對溜馬隊的第三節。
Final thought
本日心得:
The Nuggets are off to their best start since 1988-89, when they also
started out 7-3. They're playing steady defense - a big question mark
heading into the season - and they are putting away teams early, not
letting opponents crawl back in the second half.
金塊隊本季開戰成績是1988-89年以來最好的,當時他們也是7勝3敗。他們現在
打著堅強的防守—這是一直到開季前還存在的一個大問題—而且他們現在一開局
就能把比分打開,更不會讓對手在下半場追回來了。
臨時工喜獲麟兒。

Mike Wilks 的老婆禮拜二幫他生了個小男孩。談到他的小Baby,
「他很健康,10跟手指頭,10跟腳指頭。」
那麼,小男孩的名字是什麼呢?
「Carmelo Allen Wilks。」
…………
「事實上他叫 Isaiah Sharod Wilks 啦﹗我很感謝她。」
