Dirk Nowitzki-led Mavericks send Thunder to first loss DALLAS -- In their sixth game, Dirk Nowitzki and the Dallas Mavericks finally looked like the reigning NBA champions. 到这第六场比赛，达拉斯小牛和Dirk Nowitzki终於打起来像是 个卫冕冠军。 They loaded up on easy baskets. They forced the league's last unbeaten team to miss way more shots than usual. And the best highlights came from their superstar, as Nowitzki scored 10 of his 26 points during a third-quarter spurt that sent the Mavs to a 100-87 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday night. 他们轻松的投进球，把联盟中最後一支不败的球队给封锁住，让 他们频频落空。而表现最精采的就是小牛的超级巨星Dirk，他在 第三节得到全场26分当中的10分，让小牛拉开比数，最後以100-87 击败奥克拉荷马雷霆。 Dallas had been 1-4, with its aging roster seeming to show its age and a gaggle of new players looking like they needed more time to get in the flow. Yet while playing their fourth game in five nights, the Mavs had their best game so far. 小牛前五场1胜4败，他们的阵容经过一番变动，而且更显老态， 看起来还需要更多的时间来磨合。尽管小牛将在最近五天内打四 场比赛，他们在这场打出了本季的代表作。 "This team is set up to get better month-by-month," Nowitzki said. "We should have a good team in March and April. Saying that, we've still got to find ways to win. ... This team has a lot of potential, with a lot of scorers, a lot of veterans who know how to play. We can be a very dangerous team." Dirk说："我们会一个月比一个月打的更好，我们在三月到四月 会成为一支强队。我们要找到赢球的方法，我们有很多得分好 手，也有很多充满经验的老将，我们会成为很恐怖的球队。" The Thunder, who lost to the Mavericks is the Western Conference finals last season and beat Dallas with a buzzer-beater last week, were the more dangerous team coming in. They started the night 5-0, joining Miami as the league's last unbeatens. The Heat lost to Atlanta while this game was going on. 雷霆去年在西区决赛败给小牛，上礼拜则是用buzzer-beater才 险胜，他们现在看起来是更危险的球队。他们在今晚以前跟迈阿 密热火一样维持5胜0败的不败之身，而在这场比赛进行中的同时 热火则是先输给了亚特兰大老鹰。 Oklahoma City had a chance to take a healthy lead in the opening minutes, when the Mavericks missed nine of their first 11 shots. But the Thunder just never got going -- on either end. They gave up 34 points in the second quarter then scored just 18 in the third. 小牛开赛前11投有9球没进，雷霆有大好的机会拉开比数，不过他 们也找不到手感，攻守失序。他们第二节失了34分，第三节只得 到18分。 "We didn't have any energy from the beginning," said Kevin Durant, who scored 27 points. "We need energy. It changes the whole game. We need to play with more effort. Everybody looks to me so I've got to start the game better." 今天攻下27分的Kevin Durant说："我们一开始就打的很没劲，我 们需要能量，这改变了整场比赛。我们需要更努力，大家都对我有 所期待，我必须在一开始打的更好。" Russell Westbrook added 18 points and eight rebounds, and Harden had 16 points and seven rebounds. Russell Westbrook攻下18分8篮板，James Harden攻下16分7篮板。 "(Losing) one game out of six isn't the end of the world," Thunder coach Scott Brooks said. "They played much better than us throughout. It wasn't our night. They shot better than us. And we missed shots we normally make." 雷霆教练Scott Brooks说："在六场球里输掉一场没什麽大不了的， 他们整体来讲都比我们打的还好多了，今晚我们打的不好。他们投 篮比较准，而平常我们能投进的球却都没进。" Dallas began pulling away with a 9-2 run at the start of the second quarter, but Oklahoma City kept clawing back to keep things close. Then Nowitzki took over. 小牛在第二节一开始打出9-2的攻势把比分拉开，不过雷霆不断苦 追，然後Dirk掌控了全局。 He opened the second half with a jumper over Kendrick Perkins that left the big man snarling at his own bench. He made another shot with defender James Harden ducking for cover, then scooped in a layup on a play that began with Delonte West spinning Harden to the floor. The layup put Dallas up by 15 and the game wasn't close again. Dirk下半场一开始就在Kendrick Perkins面前投篮得手，让Perkins 对着自家板凳区咆哮。然後Dirk又在Harden想躲犯规的状况下投进 一球，接着切入又上篮得分。最後Delonte West切过Harden得分， 让差距拉开到15分，雷霆再也无法追近。 Before the game, Dallas coach Rick Carlisle said, "I don't think we're as far off as it may appear." He turned out to be right. Two of their flaws were fixed as the Mavs scored 56 points in the paint and kept the rebounds even at 41. Dallas had been averaging nine fewer rebounds than their foes. 在赛前，小牛教练Rick Carlisle说："我不觉得我们有打出应有的 水准。"他说的对，小牛今天修正了两个缺点，他们在禁区得到了56 分，并且跟雷霆的篮板数一样是41颗。赛前小牛平均要比对手少抓 9个篮板。 They also got points from a variety of players. 小牛今天也多点开花。 Shawn Marion scored 17 points, Jason Terry 15 and Vince Carter a season-high 14 -- eight on free throws. Jason Kidd didn't score but had a season-high nine assists. Shawn Marion攻下17分，Jason Terry攻下15分，Vince Carter攻 下本季新高的14分，其中8分是来自罚球线，Jason Kidd没得分不 过传出本季新高的9次助攻。 "We're gaining a little momentum, but we were gaining momentum last week and then laid an egg last night in Minnesota," Carlisle said. "We've got to continue the right way and maintain the proper focus, and that's challenging." 卡帅说："我们正在凝聚士气，我们上礼拜就就开始凝聚了，但却 在明尼苏达踢到铁板。我们得维持这股气势，这会是个挑战。" Nowitzki was 10 of 16, with four of his misses from 3-point range. He had six rebounds, three assists and two steals. Dirk投16中10，在三分线外投失了4球，他另外还有6篮板3助攻2抄 截。 "I've still got work to do, like everyone else," Nowitzki said. "My wind is coming back and my legs are getting stronger." Dirk说："我还有很多地方要努力，跟大家一样。我的手感回来了， 但是我的腿力还需要加强。" Game notes Nowitzki made a 10-foot, stepback jumper at 7:40 of the second quarter for his 8,000th career basket. He's fourth among active players (behind Kobe Bryant, Kevin Garnett and Tim Duncan) and 31st on the NBA career list. ... Oklahoma City's Daequan Cook (flu) was inactive. Thabo Sefalosha also had a touch of flu, but started. He didn't play the second half because of a sore right foot. ... The Mavericks don't play in Washington, D.C., this season, but they're headed there on Monday for the annual champion's visit to the White House. Team president Terdema Ussery set it up after the club realized the omission on the lockout-condensed schedule. Mavs owner Mark Cuban said "the league office was stupid or dumb or worse" to let that happen. 一些纪录 Dirk Nowitzki在第二节倒数7分40秒时投进一球，这是他生涯第 8000颗进球。这个纪录是现役的第四位，落後Kobe Bryant、Kevin Garnett跟Tim Duncan，历史上排第31位。 雷霆对的Daequan Cook感冒缺阵，Thabo Sefalosha也被传染了， 但他今天先发，不过下半场因为右脚酸痛没上。 小牛本季不会造访华盛顿特区，不过他们下礼拜一(美国时间)将 造访白宫，这是冠军队的惯例。球队总裁Terdema Ussery在今年 赛程因为封馆做了改变後订下这个行程。小牛老板Mark Cuban说 联盟真的很蠢，居然没让小牛去华盛顿。 --
