New York Knicks: Examining the Most Critical Parts of the 2012-13 Season By Sean Hojnacki (Featured Columnist）on September 14, 2012 http://tinyurl.com/8deomvl 'Yo, Melo. I can't wait to get outta this beret and start the season!' 嘿，甜瓜，赶紧把那贝蕾帽扔了，我等不及要看新赛季比赛了！ You think a lot happened with the New York Knicks last season? That was only over 66 games. They're packing a full 82 games into this season. Check out the schedule for 2012-13here. http://www.nba.com/knicks/schedule/ So, what will be the most critical part of the season? Obviously, that will be the playoffs. But that's technically the postseason. So what will be the most critical part of the regular season? Here are six stretches during which it will be crucial for the Knicks to stay on their game if they want to reach the playoffs and secure a decent seed. 你觉得上个赛季尼克经历了很多很多？可是去年只有６６场比赛而已。 今年他们会有一个足足８２场的完整比赛季。 那麽这个赛季最关键的部份将是什麽？显然，是季後赛。但是，目前，言之过早，那只是 理论上可以有的比赛。那麽，现实的说，常规赛最重要的部分将是什麽？ 这里是六个时段，他们将对尼克能够以一个体面的排名进入今後产生重要影响。 November 1-18 http://tinyurl.com/98be5xm If Cuban won't, maybe the Nets will retire his jersey. 如果库班不干，那麽篮网可能会退役他的球衣。 It's hard to say the very beginning of the season is crucial, but as the team demonstrated last year, if you don't start well it's hard to right the ship. The Knicks open with a tough nine-game stretch. They play the Netson national television in the first regular-season game at the new Barclays Center, which will surely be a charged contest. The next night, they host the NBA champion Miami Heat at MSG. After an off day, they have a back-to-back home-and-away showdown against Andrew Bynum and the new-look Sixers. And their opponents don't get much easier after that. They'll next take on Dallas, whomay be a little bitter about Jason Kidd going to Manhattan. After that is a three-game road trip to Orlando, San Antonio and Memphis—all playoff teams from last year. They return home to play Indiana, who are young, tough and very talented. If the Knicks stumble in this opening stretch, recovery could be tougher than they think. 很难说赛季的最初会是什麽关键时刻，但是根据上赛季尼克的表现，如果他们开局表现不 好，之後将很难进入正确轨道。 尼克开赛的９场比赛很艰难。他们在常规赛第一场会在全美国的注视下，在崭新的 Barclays 中心客场挑战篮网，很显然，这绝对将是一场剑拔驽张的比赛。 第二天，在ＭＳＧ，主场迎战卫冕冠军迈阿密热队。 一天修整之後，他们背靠背分别主客场迎战以崭新面孔出战的７６人和新加盟的Andrew 他们的对手之後也并没有变得容易。他们接下来面对的是小牛，Jason Kidd 加盟纽约会 让这场比赛变得有点苦涩。 接下来尼克将上路客场挑战奥兰多魔术，圣安东尼奥马刺和孟菲斯灰熊——全部是去年的 季後赛队伍。结束旅程回到家，年轻，坚强而极富才华的印第安纳溜马在ＭＳＧ等待着尼 克。如果尼克在这一连串开场秀中表现不佳，那麽之後重回正轨将比他们想像的难得多。 December 6-13 http://tinyurl.com/987zgdu The Nets will no longer be playing in an empty arena. 篮网队将不再在空空如也的球馆比赛了。 The Knicks will still be without the deft defense of shooting guard Iman Shumpert, who is expected to return around January. The team will have 17 games under their belt at this stage and should have regained their sea legs by this point. Ideally, their chemistry will be cooking as the season kicks off. And it had better be. They'll be at Miami and at Chicago, facing last year's No. 1 and 2 seeds. They'll return home to face a stout Nuggets team that took the Lakers to seven games in last year's playoffs and gained Andre Iguodala in the offseason. The Knicks then face the Nets in Brooklyn to continue their budding East River rivalry. Finally, they will bring Dwight Howard and Steve Nash to the Garden for the first time in Laker yellow. They also have some guy named Kobe Bryant and Marc Gasol's older brother. A losing streak in these five games could be a lump of coal in the Knicks' Christmas stockings. 在这个时候，尼克的後防将依然没有得分後卫香波的加盟，他将在明年１月复出。在这个 时段，尼克将有１７场比赛。这时候，尼克应该已经习惯了赛季中颠簸的生活。希望那时 候希望他们的化学反应已经在比赛中建立得不错了。 必须得这样。 他们要在迈阿密和芝加哥迎战去年东区的１，２号种子。他们回到家要迎战强壮的金块， 他们去年在季後赛中和湖人苦战７场，并且在休赛季得到了伊古达拉。 在此之後，尼克再次面对布鲁克林篮网队，继续他们的同城德比之战。最後，首次披紫金 战衣的魔兽和Nash将访问ＭＳＧ，当然还有一些老朋友，例如科比，嘎兽什麽的也会一同 到访。 输掉这一系列赛将会让尼克的圣诞节过得没那麽舒爽。 January 21-27 http://tinyurl.com/9urpynz These two bosom buddies age like fine wine. 这对铁哥们像陈年美酒。 Divisional matchups are so important, and the Knicks have a run of them in late January. First, the Knicks will take on Brooklyn at MSG on the 21st, which is also Martin Luther King, Jr. Day and the Presidential Inauguration. It will be interesting to see which event Jay-Z attends. After that, they'll head to Bostonon the 24th and Philly on the 26th. If the Knicks can reel off two or three divisional wins, coach Mike Woodson may very well be buying the whole team cheese steaks at Jim's on South Street. They'll still probably have to wait in line. Then, they return home to play against another Eastern Conference foe on the 27th, last year's fifth-seeded Atlanta Hawks. Any losing streak is bad, but one against divisional rivals can be fatal. 分区对决很重要，而在１月下旬尼克将有一个分区系列上演。 首先，尼克将在２１号主场迎战布鲁克林篮网，那一天也是马丁－路德－金日以及总统就 职仪式的日子。不知道Jay-Z 在那天会去参加那个活动呢？ 之後，尼克将在24 号去波士顿，26 号则在费城比赛。如果尼克能在这3 场比赛中取得两 场或者过多的胜利，武僧教练一定会非常乐意在费城着名的Jim's steak 为全队的 cheese steaks 买单的。当然，在生意火爆的Jim 家，他们可能还是要排队的。 然後，尼克回到家，27 号迎战去年的东区第五——老鹰队。 任何连输都不好，但是在分区战中连输将会是致命的。 February 20-24 http://tinyurl.com/9lpzt9m 'Should I play hard? Or dog it? Can't decide!' 我应该更努力还是应该逃避，我也不知道。 At the All-Star break, there will be 50 games in the books. The Knicks will have six days off over the break, with their last game being on February 13 at home against Toronto. The Knicks return from the break on February 20 to play the Pacers in Indiana. This will not be an easy matchup. The Knicks cannot afford to be rusty against such a talented squad, especially a conference rival that they'll be battling for playoff position with. It will be important to set the tone after such a long layoff. The Knicks will then travel to Toronto on the 22nd and return to New York to host Philly on the 24th. I'm sure Andrew Bynum will be rested, so he may very well decide to bring the noise that night on Broadway. Tyson Chandler and Marcus Camby had better be ready. 在全明星期间，一共有50 场比赛。在这期间，尼克将在面对暴龙之後休战6 天。 尼克在全明星之後第一场比赛将是在2 月20 号客场迎战溜马。不会容易。尼克在面对这 个极有天赋的对手时绝对不能掉链子，特别是，作为分区对手，他们将争夺季後席位。 另外，在长假之後，为之後的比赛定基调也非常重要。22 号，尼克将作客多伦多，然後 在24 号主场面对费城。 我敢肯定那时候拜纳姆肯定休息得不错，他肯定想在那天晚上在百老汇制造点声响。拳王 和坎比最好做好准备。 March 7-27 http://tinyurl.com/8wwqpbv This is the best team in the NBA. 这是NBA 中最好的球队。 From March 7 through 27, the Knicks play 12 games. Seven of those will be on the road. They begin at home against the Western Conference champion Thunder and then take on an improved Utah Jazz squad that posted a 36-30 record last year. After that, they hit the road for a tough five-game swing on the West Coast. Over eight days, they will play the Warriors, Nuggets, Trail Blazers, Clippers and Jazz. They come home and have a day off before taking on the Magic at MSG, then they have another night off before an away-and-home pair of contests against Toronto on consecutive nights. They will have two nights off before they head up to Boston for a key divisional showdown. And the next night they take on the Grizzlies at the Garden. These 12 games could very well be a make-or-break stretch for the Knicks. Poor play could drop them down towards the bottom of the Eastern Conference playoff picture with only a dozen games remaining. 3月7 号到27 号，尼克总共有12 场比赛，其中包括7 场客场。这次，他们还是从家里开 始，他们将迎战西区冠军雷霆然後和进步很快的犹他爵士对阵。去年爵士的战绩是36-30 在那之後，尼克再次上路，在西海岸面对5 场艰难的比赛，他们将分别对阵勇士，金块， 拓荒者，快艇和爵士。 回家修整一天，尼克在MSG 招待魔术，一天休息之後，背靠背主客场对阵暴龙。 在和波士顿进行分区的关键战役之前，尼克将有两天休整时间。决战之後，他们将在花园 背靠背迎来灰熊。 这12 场比赛将会是决定性的一个系列赛。比得不好，将会让尼克在还剩下十几场比赛的 时候，排名在东区季後阵营中垫底。 March 31-April 7 http://tinyurl.com/9fz6bcu It may look like P. Diddy's White Party, but it's no picnic playing in Miami. 这可能看起来像是P.Diddy 的白色派对现场，但是对阵迈阿密可不是件容易事。 On March 31, the Knicks will take on Boston at MSG in the 72nd game of the season. This is known as crunch time. Their place in the division and their playoff seeding will be at stake. And it doesn't get easier after this contest. After a travel day, they head down to Miami and then play in Atlanta the next evening. They'll return to New York to play the Bucks, whom they battled for a playoff berth last season. And after a travel day, the Knicks will be down in OKC to take on the fearsome Thunder. After this, only six games will remain, including contests against Washington,Cleveland and Charlotte. That should guarantee at least a split, as they face Chicago, Indiana and Atlanta too. They'll have to go out there and take care of their games, but analysts and prognosticators will be watching all the other teams and playing the "who would you rather" game as playoff seeding becomes clear. Good play in these six stretches should guarantee the Knicks a cushy spot as the No. 2 or 3 seed. Then all they have to do is win a playoff series for the first time since 2000. 3 月31 号，赛季的第72 场比赛，尼克主场迎战波士顿。这绝对将是生死对决。他们在分 区的位置和季後排名将是赌注。当然，之後的路也并没有多好走。 一天的路途奔波之後，尼克会南下背靠背迎战迈阿密和亚特兰大。然後回到纽约，去年争 夺季後席位的老朋友公鹿会在花园恭候。这场比赛结束之後，尼克再次上路，前往奥克拉 荷马，再次面对恐怖的雷霆。 当着一切结束得时候，尼克就只剩下6 场比赛了，对手将分别是华盛顿，克利夫兰，和夏 洛特。至少要保证赢得一半比赛，因为另一半对手将会是芝加哥，印第安纳和亚特兰大。 尼克必须认真面对他们的比赛，但是在这个季後席位逐渐明朗的时候，分析家和预测帝们 肯定会综合局势，开始玩一年一度的猜谜游戏了。 在这六个系列的比赛中取得好的战绩将会保证尼克在东区取得2 ，3 号种子的位置。 到 那时，他们需要做的就是考虑怎样取得2000 年以来的第一个季後系列赛的胜利。 原文：http://tinyurl.com/8bjrr36 翻译：http://bbs.hupu.com/4308107.html -- ─∥ ─── ◣ =◥"◥’． ∵ ◆∥ ψsherry821224 ────────────── ∥ ◤ ◥ ◤ ◥ ∥ ◤ ◢◤\ ◣◥ Teammates don't ∥ ╱ ∥◤￣◣ ﹍◣∥◤￣╲∥ ╱∥◤￣╲ ▼‵､λ﹀▼▼ play with each ∥◆◇ ∥ ∥∥◣∥ ∥╱ ∥◣＿ ─-.╳ ︶- other, they play ∥ ╲ ∥ ∥∥ ∥ ∥ ╲ ◥∥▲ ρ\ `, ▲▲ FOR each other. ─∥ ╲ ∥ ∥∥ ∥◣＿╱∥ ╲╲＿◢∥ ◥ | ◢────────…‥． --
