[外電] Wolves turn focus to future
※ 引述《jerod (KG4MVP)》之銘言：
: Wolves turn focus to future
: http://www.twincities.com/mld/twincities/sports/basketball/14127605.htm
: Team's inexperience shows on winless trip
贏不來的客場之旅曝露出來球隊的嫩
: Coming off the worst road trip in franchise history, the Timberwolves meet
: with the reality that they're building for next season while dealing with
: the disappointment of what led them there.
剛剛結束有始以來最差的客場之旅，面對這些失望的事情，灰狼要重現在開使重建到
下一季。
: All-star forward Kevin Garnett was perhaps the last holdout, just a week
: ago ripping into his teammates for joking around after a loss at Phoenix.
: Garnett said such behavior was unacceptable and that reaching the playoffs
: was still the goal. Now, even Garnett acknowledges that developing the
: future is the focus.
狼王在上個星期輸給太陽為了隊友的不認真的態度動怒，他依舊對季後賽的堅持與努力。
敗場之旅後，狼王也認為現在目標就放在未來好了。
: "This is when you see who really wants to play and who really doesn't,"
: he said after Thursday night's loss at Golden State, the final nail in
: an 0-6 trip that dropped the Wolves to 26-39.
在六連敗之旅，把灰狼打入26-39敗的戰績，狼王在輸給勇士們之後晚上又說話了：
這就是當你在到真的想打球(應該是勇士們)和誰真的不想打(應該是狼群)的不同
: There are 17 games left, including home games against Sacramento on Sunday
: and Miami on Tuesday. For the first time since Garnett was a rookie, the
: last month of the season brings no postseason hope for Minnesota. Even
: during last season's disappointing campaign, the Wolves finished 19-12
: after Kevin McHale took over as interim coach.
這是自從小賈還是菜鳥以來，第一次一點希望都沒有的最後一個月，甚至比長臂猿下海當
臨時教頭還慘。
: That team had veterans such as Sam Cassell, Latrell Sprewell and Ervin
: Johnson, who had subpar seasons but still added a different edge to the
: locker room. The dearth of veteran experience on the current club has
: played a role in its record, Garnett said.
狼王又開口了：我們球隊曾經擁有如外星人，鎖喉手和不魔術強生這些老球皮，戰績在平
均之下但是仍有差異化的優勢。在目前流行趨勢，欠缺老練的經驗扮演主要的角色。
: "We don't have the veteran leadership to execute plays when we have to,"
: he said. "What you see is sometimes we have a breakdown or when the game
: needs to be slowed down, Marcus (Banks, point guard), his natural reaction
: is to speed it up... . He and Marko (Jaric) have yet to have the experience
: to slow the momentum, those things."
沒有老球皮領導去作應該做的事。當你看到我們忽然停滯或該打漫的時後，銀行自然
而然的衝血殺入重圍...........0rz他和賈老客要有經驗的放慢，諸如此類的事
註解：言而總之...就是嫩，可是那有人沒嫩過...老賈要體認一下
: Garnett was careful not to blame his teammates for losses, saying,
: "Everything starts with me."
小賈很小心並因為輸沒有責難隊友，他說每件事都因我而起
: The Wolves had opportunities to win every game during the trip. They led
: by at least nine points in every game. And they led at halftime each time.
: Yet they frittered away those cushions, often starting with poor performances
: in the third quarters despite having starters on the court. Wolves coach
: Dwane Casey said he has tried to change the halftime routine, showing his
: players less game film so that they can get to the court in plenty of time
: to warm up. But nothing has worked.
狼群有機會在無勝之旅可以取勝。每一場比賽最少都曾經領先過九分。上半場都會領先喔!!
他門都偷偷的耗費分數，通常是在第三節得到窮的分數，儘管先發五虎都在場上。
教頭凱西有在第三節試著更換陣容，或讓狼群片子少看一點有更多的時間暖暖狼身，
沒有用...一切都是沒用的...
: "We're not consistent for 48 minutes in what we're doing, and it's our
: fault," Garnett said. "We can't blame Case. We can't blame anybody but
: ourselves, starting with me."
狼王說我們在這48分鐘裡作的事沒有從一而終，它就是我們最大的肉點
我們不口以怪[個案]，不能怪任何人除了我自己，由我開始。
: Garnett has had the opportunity, and perhaps the justification, to criticize
: Casey and McHale, the team's vice president of basketball operations. But the
: Wolves' franchise player hasn't gone that far.
狼王有機會和借口砲打狼隊高層教頭凱西和麥客海爾，但是他沒有這樣做:
: Casey wants his players to re-establish a defensive mind-set. But teams are
: attacking Minnesota with success.
凱西想要他球員重建中防守意志。但球隊用成功攻擊灰狼( 亂翻)
: The Wolves allowed 58 points in the lane Wednesday against the Los Angeles
: Lakers, then 46 points in that category to the Warriors.
狼群讓湖人得58分在lane，勇士的46分
: "We had an opportunity to get in the playoff race, and to come back with a
: goose egg is very disappointing for me. It should be disappointing for the
: players, and it's disappointing to the staff," Casey said. "When you have
: young guys like that, we make so many mistakes on both ends of the floor,
: it's hard to recover from that on the road."
凱西說：我們有機會得到季候賽入場卷但是得到是鵝蛋=zero，對我來說是非常失望。
應該對球員和經營團隊來說都是令人失望。當你有年輕人就會容意犯很多錯在攻守兩端，
尤其在客場更難去挽回。
: But it's Garnett's feelings that matter most. Whether he will be traded
: after the season remains the most important question surrounding this team,
: from now until next season starts.
狼王的感覺是很重要。狼王在下一季是否可能變成x王，是最重要的事情一直纏繞著球隊
，直到下一季的開幕戰。
: So every word that Garnett issues regarding the state of this team becomes
: magnified, his frustration level measured by the day.
: "You've got to continue to fight," Garnett said.
: Briefly: The Wolves had the day off Friday.
狼王放出注意球隊的心態，每個字都變的非常大。他在這一天感到很挫敗。
簡而言之：在星期五狼有一個休息日
: ‧ Trenton Hassell said he's not sure how his lower lip was split open
: during Thursday night's game. He needed two stitches at halftime to close
: the wound, but he characterized it as no big deal.
: "I can still walk and run, so I'll be all right," he said.
哈索說他不確定他的下嘴唇怎麼裂的，在星期二之夜。他縫兩針在中場時間，他依舊上
場奮鬥，我還可以走和跑，所以我將整晚都可以上陣
: ‧ Forward Eddie Griffin was an unexpected contributor Thursday, still
: dealing with a sore right wrist but able to play 14 minutes, grab seven
: rebounds and block three shots. Casey had said he originally was targeting
: Sunday's game for Griffin's return.
艾迪機沒有被期望在星期二有供獻因為右腕的疼痛，但是還能上場14分，抓七板子和
三鍋。凱西說他原本是要機在星期日回來就好。
