If Lakers play defense, they can have deep thoughts 如果湖人有在防守，他们才能想想总冠军 来源：http://0rz.tw/b93Y9 Los Angeles Daily News By Steve Dilbeck, columnist Article Last Updated: 04/25/2008 12:06:29 AM PDT EL SEGUNDO That offense has become something to behold. 他们的进攻很有看头。 Smooth, versatile, explosive. 流畅，多才多艺，具爆炸力的。 The Lakers share the ball, use the whole floor, attack the lanes, hit net on 3s. 湖人很会传球，利用空间，攻击禁区，以及丢三分。 That defense has become a postseason work in progress. 但对於季後赛来说，他们的防守还要练。 It can look brilliant in stretches. Can frustrate the Denver Nuggets to death, at times. 他们在战况激烈的时候看起来棒极了，能让丹佛金块沮丧到要撞墙，但只是有时候。 It can also fade. Take a serious siesta here and there. Be slow to rotate, fail to fill the lanes, to help, to simply play tight, in-your-face `D.' 这些都可能会消失。认真来说常常某些地方会消失不见，轮转太慢，禁区没人。你必须要 帮忙防守，就是认真点打，最重要的就是防守。 That will not get it done. It'll be enough to get past the Nuggets, so defensively challenged they were second-to-last in points allowed this season. 不防守就没戏唱。可能不防守还可以过金块这关，但想要走的更远，真正对防守的挑战还 在後头。 But the Lakers have ambitions well beyond Denver, beyond the looming second-round showdown with the Utah Jazz. 但湖人比丹佛更有野心，也比可能的第二轮对手犹他爵士更有野心。 These Lakers are allowing themselves to dream big, to dream of a trip back to the Finals, of an NBA title. 湖人球队都有一个很大的幻想，幻想他们能回到冠军赛，拿到总冠军。 Want to win, Lakers? 但湖人，你要拿什麽来赢？ Step up the defense. And do it consistently. 你必须要加强防守，并且持续。 At some point, it will be absolutely necessary. 在很多时刻，这是绝对必要的。 Count on it. 必须靠它。 "It always comes back to the defense over time," veteran guard Derek Fisher said. 『最终都要回到防守。』经验老到的後卫Derek Fisher说。 There are a limited number of teams the Lakers can plan on simply outscoring. Can just overwhelm with their admittedly impressive offense. 很少球队能让湖人简单的比得分就结束，能让湖人以必须承认很好的进攻打败。 If the Lakers should get past the Jazz, no certainty, it appears more than ever they might meet up with the defending champion Spurs in the conference finals. That would be the third-best defensive team in the NBA. 如果湖人能过了爵士那关，只是如果，那他们很可能会在西区冠军赛碰到去年的总冠军 马刺。他们是联盟防守第三好的球队。 Should they actually advance to the Finals, they're expected to meet either Detroit of Boston, the top two defensive teams in the league. 如果他们真的能进入冠军赛，那他们很可能会碰到底特律或是波士顿，这两名联盟最会防 守的球队。 These teams play great defense and the Lakers will need to also if they are to emerge with that funky golden ball. 这两队的防守都极强，湖人如果也想拿起欧不来嗯金盃，那他们也必须要一样。 "One-hundred percent yes," Pau Gasol said. "That's how you win games. That's how you win championships." 『百分之百的正确。』Pau Gasol说。『那就是你如何能赢球，能赢得冠军的关键。』 It's not like the Lakers are not capable of stepping it up. Of playing lock-down defense. Of forcing their will upon opponents. Making a statement not just with the dazzling slam dunks and rain of 3s, but of intimidating defense. 湖人并不是做不到防守，或是意志力凌驾於对手。你必须做的不是那些华丽的灌篮或三分 雨，而是令人害怕的防守。 They've done it plenty of times. Have been absolutely impressive. Blocking shots, coming up with steals, shutting down potent offensive weapons. 他们也曾做到过很多次，让人印象非常深刻。盖锅，抄球，让对手熄火。 But they tend to do it in spurts, and that's not the same as a true commitment to defense. Not the kind they need to make. 但他们情愿尔偶做做，那不是对防守的承诺，不是他们必须去做的。 This turn-it-on-and-off business flirts with danger and can come back to take a large bite out of your playoff derriere. 那只是一时的激情，但这很可能会在之後的比赛被狠狠的咬一口。 Sometimes their defense is truly impressive. 有时候他们的防守真的很好。 Sometimes it's way too casual, too laid back. 但有时候又太随意，太被动了。 "I think it's pretty good," Gasol said. "Sometimes we have little breakdowns. We get a little comfortable because we have such a good offense, we rely on it a lot. 『我想这还算可以。』Gasol说。『有时候我们打的比较轻松，因为我的的进攻很好，我们 依赖的就是它。』 "But our defense steps up when we need to. We really dig in and get a lot of stops. We get the stops when we need them. If we can keep it more consistent for a longer period of time, we will be very hard to beat." 『但是当有需要的时候我们会防守，我们会认真起来并阻止对手，只要我们有需要。如果 我们能更持续的防守更长的一段时间，要打败我们会非常的困难。』 Absolutely. If the Lakers can get their defense to approach the current level of their offense, they can dream as grand as they want. 完全正确。如果湖人的防守能接近他们进攻的等级，他们爱怎麽幻想就怎麽幻想。 The Nuggets make judging the Lakers' defensive performance a precarious undertaking. They are a non-traditional team that goes pedal-to-the-floor offensively, and gambles plenty defensively. 金块证明了湖人的防守很不稳定。他们是支非传统的球队，他们就像脚踏风火轮的进攻， 而且常常赌博性的防守。 They play a ridiculous amount of one-on-one basketball with stars Allen Iverson and Carmelo Anthony. They offer matchup problems and force some uncommon defensive strategies. 他们用Allen Iverson以及Carmelo Anthony在太多毫无道理的一对一处理上，他们经常 有错位的问题造成一些不常见的防守策略。 Yet they play so loosey-goosey that they invite turnovers, almost promise rewards for unswerving defense. 他们很欢迎失误，不过只要你防守够坚定就会得到成果。 But playing defense, much like rebounding, is largely about a commitment, about an attitude. 但是防守就像抓篮板一样，是很需要承诺以及态度。 Twelve of the top 13 defensive teams this season made the playoffs. It's not coincidence, it's evidence. It's a veritable clich : defense wins championships. 本季前13支最会防守的球队有12支进入季後赛，这不是巧合，这是证据：防守才能赢得总 冠军。 "Absolutely," said Kobe Bryant. "We understand if we want to get to the ultimate goal, we have to defend. That's something we've really been focusing on. 『当然。』Kobe Bryant说。『我们知道如果我们想要达到最终的目标，就必须要防守。 那是我们真的很专注的东西。』 "We're doing a pretty good job I think. The tempo of this series is obviously different, but all and all, I think we're doing a pretty good job." 『我想我们做的还不错。这系列的节奏很明显的不同，但不论如何，我想我们做的还算 不错。』 The Lakers are passing the ball so well right now - they have 66 assists on 92 field goals in the first two games against Denver - that they can probably continue the way they're going and advance into the second round for the first time in four years. 湖人现在非常会传球，在头两场对丹佛的比赛中，92次命中有66次由助攻产生。他们很可 能会在四年内第一次进入第二轮。 But if they want to go deep into this postseason, a marvelous offense won't be enough. The playoffs will demand that the Lakers emerge as a stellar defensive team. 但如果想在季後赛走的更长，非凡的进攻是不够的。季後赛需要湖人成为一支很会防守的 球队。 "That always rears its head at some point," Fisher said. 『有时候你只能这样做。』Fisher说。 It takes will, takes a committed team. Without it, a team is just a glorified version of the Nuggets. 这需要意志力，需要球队做出承诺。如果没有，那这支球队只是美化过的金块。 The Lakers might not have a traditional center in Gasol, but he's a true presence in the middle. They have the pieces necessary. Now they just have to get it done beyond simple stretches. 湖人可能没有一个传统的中锋，但Gasol仍然在禁区有实质的吓阻力。他们已经有了所有 该有的拼图，现在他们只需要把它拼好。 对不起，这篇也没有很实际的讲到哪里该改进。 它没有讲是我的错， 我以为它会讲是我的错， 昨天太晚睡是我的错， 我家旁边电子花车一直吵也是我的错， 全都是我的错～ （我真的真的没有在婊谁） --
