絕地大反攻．．功虧一簣。

CLEVELAND -- LeBron James scored a season-low 14 points, but added nine
assists and eight rebounds as the Cleveland Cavaliers won their fifth
straight, holding off the Indiana Pacers 94-89 on Friday night.
在週五晚騎士隊以９４－８９擊敗溜馬隊的比賽中 LeBron James 雖然只攻下本季
新低１４分，但是送出９次助攻８次籃板，讓騎士隊連勝紀錄推進到五連勝。
Drew Gooden added a season-high 21 points and 12 rebounds on a tender
ankle and Larry Hughes had 18 points for the Cavs, who blew a 15-point
lead in the fourth but made all the big plays down the stretch.
帶傷上陣的 Drew Gooden 也打出本季新高２１分還有１２籃板， Larry
Hughes 替騎士隊拿下１８分，即使球隊在第四節把１５分領先拱手讓出，
他們還是在關鍵時刻拿出關鍵表現。
After the Pacers clawed back from a 22-point deficit to tie it at 86,
James drove for a layup with 56 seconds left and was fouled by Jermaine
O'Neal. He missed the free throw, but Cavs guard Eric Snow leaned in
and drew an offensive foul on Jamaal Tinsley as the Pacers guard pushed
the ball up the floor.
當溜馬隊狂追２２分，把比數定在８６平時，時間剩下最後５６秒。 James
切入上籃得手還被 Jermaine O'Neal 犯上一規。他這球罰球沒進，不過，
騎士隊 Eric Snow 佔住位置，讓正準備往前推進的溜馬隊 Jamaal Tinsley
撞個正著，造成進攻犯規。
Hughes then dropped a short jumper to make it 90-86, and after Stephen
Jackson missed a 3-pointer for Indiana, the Cavaliers made four free
throws, including a technical when Jackson was ejected with 10.8 seconds
left to ice it.
Hughes 接著投進一記跳投，比數拉開成９０－８６，而在 Stephen Jackson
錯過下一球三分球後，騎士隊又投進４球罰球，其中包含 Jackson 被判技術
犯規驅逐出場時的一次罰球，那時比賽只剩下１０．８秒。
O'Neal scored a season-high 34 points with 11 rebounds and five blocks.
Fred Jones had 15 points for the Pacers, who were just 4-of-19 on
3-pointers.Indiana fell to 3-2 since forward Ron Artest said he wanted
to be traded.
O'Neal 攻下本季個人新高３４分１１籃板５阻攻。 Fred Jones 也替溜馬
攻下１５分。今晚溜馬三分球投１９中４，在 Ron Artest 事件後，戰績
因為這場敗仗成為３勝２敗。
Donyell Marshall added 17 points and Zydrunas Ilgauskas 15 for Cleveland,
which improved to 11-3 at home, and at 16-9, have the Eastern Conference's
second-best record.
騎士隊這邊 Donyell Marshall 攻下１７分、 Zydrunas Ilgauskas 攻下
１５分。他們的主場戰績目前是１１勝３敗，並且以１６勝９敗的成績站穩
東區第二。
Trailing 76-61 at the start of the fourth quarter, the Pacers chipped
away by forcing the ball down low. After Ilgauskas picked up his fifth
personal and had to sit with 5:41 left, the Pacers scored seven straight
points, pulling within 84-82 on Tinsley's 3-pointer with 2:58 remaining.
第四節開場還以６１－７６落後的溜馬隊施加壓力，努力追分。在 Ilgauskas
五犯於５分４１秒離場後，溜馬隊連得７分，靠著 Tinsley 的三分球在最後
２分５８秒時追到８２－８４落後２分。
Ilgauskas returned and missed his first shot, and O'Neal's 14-foot
jumper tied it 84-all with 2:16 to go.
Ilgauskas 回到場上，但是剛拿球出手就沒進， O'Neal 一記跳投在比賽
最後２分１６秒時把比數追平，８４－８４。
James came in averaging nearly 36 points in 10 December games, but he
didn't reach double digits until he made a steal and a reverse breakaway
dunk to put the Cavaliers ahead 79-68 in the fourth.
本場比賽前， James 在１２月份平均每場攻下３６分，但是今晚他卻遲遲
等到第四節才靠著一次抄截快攻猛灌將分數突破個位數，這球也讓騎士隊
７９－６８領先。
For a change, James didn't have to carry the scoring load and didn't
force many shots. The Cavaliers improved to 15-3 when James, whose
previous season low was 16, tries under 25 shots.
有個轉變，現在 James 不再把得分責任一肩扛，不再需要狂出手。當 James
出手少於２５球的情況下，騎士隊戰績在這場後進步到１５勝３敗，他個人
上季得分新低是１６分。
With Artest elsewhere, Pacers coach Rick Carlisle assigned Jackson
to James. It was a mismatch early on as James got his teammates
involved by either blowing past Jackson or setting up the Cavaliers
with crisp passes.
沒有了 Artest 溜馬隊教練必須派上 Jackson 守 James，這是個吃虧
的組合， James 利用機會不是咻一聲的甩開 Jackson 就是找機會跟
隊友配合，遞出妙傳助攻。
The Cavs were already ahead by 10 when James scored his first points,
driving the lane for a thunderous dunk that Marshall followed with a
3-pointer to give Cleveland a 15-point lead.
當 James 以一記雷霆萬鈞的扣籃攻下第一球時，騎士隊已經領先１０分，
Marshall 接下來又投進一顆三分球，把領先擴大到１５分。
James sat for a more than five minutes in the second quarter, but the
Cavs extended their lead to 19 while their star rested. When he came
back, James fed Marshall for the Cavs fourth 3-pointer of the period
to make it 51-29.
在第二節， James 休息長達５分鐘，但是騎士隊繼續擴大領先到１９分。
接著， James 回到場上，妙傳給 Marshall 投進騎士隊該節第四顆三分球
，比數成為５１－２９。
However, the Pacers closed the half with an 11-1 spurt to get within
52-40 at the break.
不過，溜馬隊在中場休息前拉起一波１１－１的攻勢，把比數追成５２－４０。
Notes: 〔花絮〕
Ilgauskas, shooting .886 (109-of-123) from the free throw line,
is on pace to have the highest free-throw percentage for a player
7-feet or taller. Joe Kleine made .882 percent of his free throws
in 1988-89. ...
投１２３中１０９，罰球命中率８８．６％的 Ilgauskas 有機會成為
七呎以上球員中的罰球王。１９８８－８９球季， Joe Kleine 的罰球
命中率達到８８．２％。
With three games in four nights, James has some last-minute Christmas
shopping to do on Saturday. "I'm nowhere near done," he said, "been
playing too much." ...
四天內三場球要打， James 的聖誕購物清單幾乎要到週六才能完成。
他說：「我還有很多沒買，太多比賽了。」
Jones, who has made two or more 3-pointers in 18 of 25 games, leads
the league with 4.4 3-pointers made per 48 minutes. ...
在２５場比賽中有１８場投進至少２個以上三分球的 Jones 目前以
每４８分鐘投進４．４球三分球領先全聯盟球員。
Tinsley didn't practice Thursday and was questionable until game time
after suffering whiplash when he collided with Clippers center Chris
Kaman on Wednesday.
跟快艇隊中鋒 Chris Kaman 相撞的 Tinsley 週四因傷沒有練習，
直到開打前才確定能上場。
