D’Antoni’s rotation is tight and his directive is to run. 第一段是甚麽意思阿@@? Point guard Raymond Felton had trouble with the concept in the preseason and at the beginning of the season. He found a happy medium, and his play is a large portion of the Knicks’ recent success (13 wins in 14 games). But with no natural backup, Felton is logging a career-high 38.6 minutes a game. 肥顿很重要，但是没有候补的他，打太久了(场均38.6分钟的新高)。 Amar’e Stoudemire is right beside Felton, on the court for 37.4 minutes a game . Both ranked among the top 16 in the N.B.A. entering Tuesday. 阿骂也打很久(场均37.4分钟)。 D’Antoni is acutely aware of the minutes and the potential costs later in the season, when the mileage starts to accrue. At practice Tuesday, D’Antoni said he would like to trim his top players’ minutes slightly. 教练也知道这件事，他在练习时说，他想减少点球员的上场时间。 “I would love to cut some minutes off our guys,” D’Antoni said. “They’re playing a little bit too many minutes now, but we’ve got to win also. It’s a little bit of a balancing act. I’m trying to find ways I can shave minutes off. 教练说:我知道他们打太久，我想减少他们的上场时间但是我也想赢球。我会找到一个 平衡的方法。 “If we were in a deadlock for one of the top four spots, then I would be concerned about it, but we’re trying to make the playoffs, and that’s where we’re at.” 第一行看不太懂，大概是说要打季後赛需要体力调配? D’Antoni said he would limit his players’ practice time and offer more days off. Other N.B.A. teams compensate in a similar manner. Through age and injuries, the Los Angeles Lakers’ tandem of Kobe Bryant and Derek Fisher rarely practice and rarely miss games. 教练说他会让减少球员的练习量，让他们休息几天。 There is another way to reduce minutes, D’Antoni joked. “If they would just start winning by 20 points, then I could give them the fourth quarter off,” he said. “That’s on them.” 再不然就是能够领先20分，那样他们第四节就可以休息。 Felton and Stoudemire are welcoming the cutback, but Felton said he would feel comfortable playing 40 minutes a game. 阿骂和肥顿乐於降低出场时间，但是肥顿说打40分钟不是问题。 Chris Duhon, Felton’s predecessor as the Knicks’ point guard, started capably his first year with the organization, hit a wall because of the heavy minutes and never recovered. But Felton is proving that he is a step above Duhon. 杜洪没办法打那麽久，但是肥顿可以。 (的确，在第四节看不太出来体力下滑的影响，其他几个人也是，年轻肉体真耐操) In Charlotte last season, Felton split time with D. J. Augustin, then one of the league’s better backup point guards. Toney Douglas is Felton’s primary backup with the Knicks, but Douglas is more equipped to play off the ball. 在山猫时有D. J. Augustin帮肥顿分担，但是做为主要替补的TD，不是个控球的料。 The rookie Andy Rautins is the team’s only other possible point guard. Rautins has made only two cameo appearances, but D’Antoni is hesitant to send him to the N.B.A. Development League because of the team’s lack of depth at the position. 新秀Andy Rautins也无法胜任，教练没把他送去发展联盟，因为球队在PG位置深度不够， (Rautins本季打了两场共10分钟，FG:1-3 3P:1-2 1助攻 3失误，不被用正常..) The Knicks are perusing the league for backup candidates and have held multiple discussions with the Minnesota Timberwolves concerning Sebastian Telfair, according to an executive involved in the discussions. The Timberwolves will probably not make a move until they gauge the health of Jonny Flynn, their young point guard who recently returned from a hip injury. 我们有跟灰狼谈过Sebastian Telfair，但是他们还得先观察过他们的年轻PG， Jonny Flynn的伤势回复的怎样，再来做决定。 (Sebastian Telfair今年2.7M镁，到期约，符合尼克的操作，但是他控球会比TD好吗? 我不熟，如果可以最好能够顶到15分钟? 肥顿打33分钟，TD专心打SG? (我在灰狼板有看到Luke Ridnour也有可能，可是这一篇没讲到，他的约每年4M镁，13-14 年到期，有点常不太适合。) Meanwhile, the Knicks prepared to host the Boston Celtics on Wednesday, and one or more streaks will end. Stoudemire has scored at least 30 points in a franchise-record eight straight games, all Knicks victories. The Celtics have a league-best 10-game winning streak, last losing on Nov. 21. 明天打超赛 “I don’t understand questions about are we there yet,” Felton said. “We’re doing better than any other team in the league right now.” 帮我翻一下这一段，不太确定意思。 Stoudemire said: “We’ve got to make our mark first before we start any rivalry. We’re just getting started regaining some respect here as a team. We got no room to start rivalries right now.” 教练转性? 其实有交易是好事..但是我很怕交易来的人教练又不用阿 --
