Red-hot mavs rolling into March thanks to Dirk's career-best shooting By EDDIE SEFKO / The Dallas Morning News Published 01 March 2011 12:15 AM http://tinyurl.com/6cqwdrx PHILADELPHIA — It’s hard to tell who was sadder to see February end, the Mavericks or all those folks who got $5 -Dollar Footlongs. The Mavericks devoured the month like so many Philly cheesesteaks, going 11-1 and feasting on mostly sub-standard opposition. What they can take out of February is a fattened-up record and the knowledge that they re-learned how to run their system with a mix-and-match lineup that put a premium on unselfish play, no matter which combination of players was on the court. Look no further than the assist total for February as proof. The Mavericks dished out 25.2 helpers per game, a sizeable bump from the 22.5 they averaged before February. 小牛吞噬了有如此多费城起司牛排的一个月，打出了11胜1败的成绩。他们用混合搭 配的方式重新学习到如何跑他们的系统，用无私的打打， 不管球场上的球员是什麽 样的组合 小牛本季平均传出22.5次助攻，2月更是多达25.2次。 The Mavericks’ sizzle actually started in late January, when they won their last five games to salvage an 8-8 month. 小牛的嘶吼从1月底开始，赢得了最後5场比赛，挽救了只有8胜8败的一个月。 Since then, it’s been all good, particularly for Dirk Nowitzki, who hasn’t had to score as much as usual thanks to the way his teammates are spreading the scoring wealth. 自从那之後，这一直都很好，特别是Dirk不需要像平常一样得那麽多分， 这都要感 谢队友们帮忙得分。 “The key is that he’s gotten into a good rhythm and he’s playing with a lot of different guys because of our rotation, and I think that’s helped our team,” coach Rick Carlisle said. 总教练Rick Carlisle说：关键就是他进入一个很好的节奏，因为我们的调度，他也 和很多不同的球员搭配，而我想这帮助了我们的球队。 And it’s helped Nowitzki, too. He’s shooting a career-best 52.4 percent and was even better than that in February. While his scoring average is down more than two points from last year and almost four points below his career best, he’s clearly more efficient as he’s seen his playing time drop by three minutes per game. 而这也帮助了Dirk。他的投篮命中率是生涯新高的5成24，而2月甚至更好。 虽然他 的平均得分比起去年下降了2分多，也几乎比生涯最佳少了几乎4分，然而很明显的， 他是更有效率了，从他的上场时间平均少了3分钟来看。 Nowitzki said Monday that the shuffling of lineups is a positive thing for the Mavericks and that the depth already is paying dividends and will be an even greater asset in the playoffs. Even though rotations tend to shorten in the postseason, the Mavericks have different sorts of players who can contribute against different opponents. It ’s all based on match-ups. And all of them know they can mesh with Nowitzki. 即使季後赛的调度会紧缩，而小牛有不同的类型的球员可以去对抗不同的对手， 这 完全看对战组合。而他们都知道可以和Dirk互相配合。 “To me, we have a veteran team and it doesn’t really matter who is out there with you,” he said. “We all know how to play the game and it all goes back to Jason Kidd and how unselfish everybody is.” 对我来说，我们是支老经验的球队，我们真的不太在乎谁下场休息， 我们都知道如 何打比赛，而这完全追溯到对每个人都无私的Kidd。 It also ensures the Mavericks have plenty of weapons to hedge against occasional slumps by individual players. 这也保证了小牛勇有足够的武器去防备个人临时的低潮。 -- ╭─────────╮ Our Way Our Will Our Win ╭╯Dallas Mavericks╭╯ ￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣ ╰─────────╯ --
