After the tumult and the injuries, the dizzying changes and the wild swings of fate, the Knicks concluded their season with a 48-minute exhale, a final chance to breathe before the air gets heavy and the lungs grow tight. 整季的风风雨雨都告一段落了, 虽然终於可以稍微喘口气, 但马上又得飞往迈阿密, 面对又紧张又激烈兴奋的季後赛! The Knicks are heading to Miami for a first-round playoff series that will strain their resolve, stretch their star power and ultimately define their season, if it does not wreck them. The series opens Saturday at American Airlines Arena. 首轮第一场在(台北)周日早上, 迈阿密主场开打 The date with the Heat was clinched Thursday, on the final night of the season, when the Knicks secured the seventh seed in the Eastern Conference with a 104-84 rout of the historically bad Charlotte Bobcats. 季赛最後一战的今天才确定首轮要去迈阿密海滩灭火 The Knicks (36-30) could have dropped to eighth — and drawn a more favorable matchup with the Chicago Bulls — with a loss and a Philadelphia victory. But the Knicks, even without three starters, found it difficult to lose to the lowly Bobcats. And the 76ers did not cooperate anyway, being routed, 108-86, by the Detroit Pistons. 本来今天如果选择性输给山猫 & 76人赢球的话, 能以第八种子来对战公牛, 公牛看来 没有热火那麽硬, 但一切都只是空想, 即使尼克今天三名先发主力没上, 烂山猫还是 赢不了我们, 然後76人输给了活赛 Either way, the Knicks had acknowledged the challenge would be immense in the first round. So they rested Carmelo Anthony, Tyson Chandler and Baron Davis on Thursday and played Amar’e Stoudemire sparingly, a necessary breather before they wrestle with LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. 无论火/牛, 尼克都很清楚首轮会是极大的挑战, 所以今天才没上甜瓜, 拳王, BD上 场打山猫, 只让阿骂持续上场恢复手感但也小心的不让啊骂打太久, 这安排对於即将 面对热火三焱, 超重要的 “Three superstars, I call them,” Coach Mike Woodson said earlier. “They have a nice supporting cast that has learned how to play with those guys.” 武僧: 超级球星--三焱, 今年多了些能好好在旁支援的队友了 Woodson added, “However you cut it, you have great teams you’re going to have to deal with and you’re going to win a game to flip the series and get it back in your favor.” The Knicks went 0-3 against the Heat this season, including two double-digit losses in Miami and a 93-85 defeat at Madison Square Garden on April 15. They played the Heat once without Anthony, once without Stoudemire and deployed a different lineup in each game. 本季对战热火没赢过, 两场双位数落败, 一场在MSG的是93-85输球, 其中一场没甜瓜, 一场没啊骂, 然後每次尼克的阵容都不一样 As he weighed the Heat and the Bulls, Woodson sounded a confident note. “Can we beat those teams? Absolutely,” he said. “But we’ve just got to come mentally and physically ready to play 48 minutes. We haven’t put 48-minute ballgames together against the Miami team.” 当武僧在评论热火公牛这两队时, 他下了个强力的注解: 我们尼克打的赢吗? http://imgur.com/SvGgo 但我们要把身心状态都调整到能好好应付整整48分钟的竞赛, 我们还没试过跟热火 连续打几场会是怎样咧! Stoudemire and Iman Shumpert were the only Knicks starters who played Thursday, in a patchwork lineup with Josh Harrellson, Landry Fields and Mike Bibby. Of the Knicks’ veterans, Stoudemire needed the most work, having returned a week ago from a back injury. He played the first and third quarters, finishing with 21 points, 2 rebounds and 2 blocks. 今天啊骂上去打一三节, 24分钟21分2板2火锅 ps. 老实说有点失望, 与其得高分, 我比较想看啊骂抓多一点篮板... Even without their stars, the Knicks had no trouble routing the woebegone Bobcats (7-59), who lost their 23rd straight game and finished with the worst winning percentage (.106) in N.B.A. history. That ignominious claim had been held by the 1972-73 76ers, whose 9-73 record remains the worst for an 82-game season. 即使今天没放球星上阵, 尼克对战"无鼻孔"的山猫一点问题也没, 顺便推了山猫一把 让山猫名留臭史 (季赛最低胜率10.6%, 之前是1972-73的76人) The Bobcats’ season-ending losing streak is three short of the record set by the Cleveland Cavaliers last season and is tied for the third longest in league annals. The Knicks ended on a happier note, with 18 victories in their final 24 games, all under Woodson. They finished with their best winning percentage (.545) in 11 years, since going 48-34 (.585) in 2000-1. 尼克开心的结束季赛, 武僧执教下近24战18胜, 也是近11年来最佳季赛胜率(54.5%) The only real regret for the Knicks, over these final weeks, were two inexcusable losses —at Indiana (when they blew a 17-point lead) and at Cleveland (when they simply failed to compete) — that ultimately prevented them from rising to sixth in the East. 但唯一另人扼腕的, 是对溜马跟骑士这两场的输球, 唉唉~ 说好不提排老六的.... The Knicks kept their focus Thursday, despite the weakness of the opponent and the lack of any tangible reward. J. R. Smith led the Knicks with 22 points off the bench. Anthony, Chandler and Davis asked for the night off. Davis is still coping with back and hamstring injuries. Chandler and Anthony have been carrying a heavy load for the last month. The Knicks need both at their absolute peak to have any chance of winning a playoff series for the first time since 2001. Woodson left the decision up to his players and said he would have used them if they wanted to play. 拳王跟甜瓜四月loading太重了, 所以今天准休, BD是伤还没好. 尼克超级需要拳王 跟甜瓜带领大家冲过首轮, 我们2001之後就不知道次轮长怎样了. 休息与否武僧让 球员自行决定 “He wanted to rest,” Woodson said of Anthony. “I didn’t suggest it.” 甜瓜想要休息, 武僧虽然同意但不太赞同这样做 It was an easy call under the circumstances. The Knicks began the day in seventh place, with no chance to move up and only a slight chance of slipping to eighth. The lineup the Knicks used was their 18th this season. The lineup that will open Game 1 in Miami — Davis, Shumpert, Anthony, Stoudemire and Chandler — has started only one game, against the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday. 顺带一提, 今天的阵容是本季的第18种不同阵容喔~ 然後对战热火首战的阵容: BD + 甜瓜 + 阿骂 + 拳王 + 香波, 这季只出现过一次, 就是上一场打快艇的时候 “At this point, the way the season has been going for us, everything is a challenge,” Davis said. “We’ve been having to adjust to so many different lineups and so many different injuries that we’re just going to go and give it our best shot.” REBOUNDS Tyson Chandler finished the season with a 67.9 field-goal percentage, tops in the N.B.A. and the third highest in league history. Only Wilt Chamberlain has recorded a higher percentage: 72.7 in 1972-73 and 68.3 in 1966-67. Chandler easily beat the runner-up, Orlando’s Dwight Howard (57.3). ... Steve Novak won the 3-point crown, with a league-leading 47.2 rate (133 for 282). He is the first Knick to lead the league in that category since Campy Russell in 1981-82, with a 43.9 mark. ... Jeremy Lin had the league’s second most popular jersey over the last 12 months, based on sales at N.B.A.com and the N.B.A. Store in New York. Lin, who finished behind Chicago’s Derrick Rose, did so despite only becoming an everyday player in February. Carmelo Anthony had the fifth-highest-selling jersey. 特报!! 1. 拳王本季67.9%命中率全NBA第一! 然後史上第三!! (只输张伯伦的72.7% & 68.3%) 2. 腰带王以47.2%(282中133)的三分球命中率联盟称王!! 3. 揪咪林荣获今年最卖座球衣第二名 4. 甜瓜也挤身最卖座球衣第五名!! BEAT˙THE˙HEAT!!! http://imgur.com/SvGgo PS. 明天出国, 5/12才回来, 烦请rexxon跟其他版友帮忙翻译外电罗 希望回台湾时能有第二轮的尼克外电可以翻.... -- 清晨雾一般的思念, 清新 double, 美丽 double, 捉摸不定 double... --
