Suns-Mavericks Preview With 10-time All-Star Dirk Nowitzki sidelined for at least three more games, the Dallas Mavericks are counting on their supporting cast to continue to help fill his void. 10度入选明星赛的Dirk Nowitzki还要休息三场，达拉斯小牛需要其他人 跳出来弥补这段空缺。 If their latest effort is any indication, the Mavericks should be able to manage just fine. 看他们最近的状况，小牛应该还可以应付。 Looking to extend its winning streak at American Airlines Center to seven, Dallas tries for a ninth consecutive home victory over the Phoenix Suns on Monday night. 小牛明天将寻求主场的七连胜，同时也是主场对凤凰城太阳的九连胜。 Nowitzki, who has been hindered by a sore right knee, was held out of Saturday's 83-81 win at New Orleans. He isn't expected to return until Jan. 29 versus San Antonio at the earliest. Dirk目前受右膝酸痛的伤势所苦，昨天客场对纽澳良黄蜂的比赛没上， 不过小牛还是以83-81险胜，他预计最快要到29号对马刺才会回来。 "We just thought it was a good decision for everybody. I'm not happy right now anyways, so the guys are better off when I'm not out there," Nowitzki said. "This gives me time to really do some of the stuff that I couldn't do when my knee was bothering me the last couple weeks. I couldn't lift and run and do the things I needed to do." Dirk说："这个决定对大家都好，我现在打的不太开心，大家代替我上场 会更好。这让我有时间来做一些膝盖受伤没办法做的事，我没办法举东 西、跑步或是做一些我需要做的事情。" Dallas (10-7) didn't seem to miss a beat without the reigning NBA Finals MVP thanks in large part to Lamar Odom, who scored 16 points in his first start. 小牛看起来没有受到去年总冠军战MVP的缺阵所影响，多亏了来自小牛首 度先发的Lamar Odom，他昨天攻下16分。 "I liked the way Lamar played. We're a running team, so with him starting and getting more minutes, this is an opportunity for him to get in the habit of running and to raise his level of conditioning," coach Rick Carlisle said. "This week is a big week for him." 小牛教练Rick Carlisle说："我喜欢Odom打球的方式，我们是支节奏快 的球队，所以我让他先发并且打久一点，这是一个机会，让他可以找到 这样的比赛感觉并且让体态恢复，这礼拜对他来说很重要。" Delonte West also scored 16 points while Shawn Marion and Jason Terry combined for 26. Delonte West昨天也得到16分，而Shawn Marion跟Jason Terry则是合计 攻下26分。 "We've gone through this last year when we lost (Nowitzki) for nine games," said Jason Kidd, who had nine rebounds and five assists. "We felt like we have a lot of talent here, and we feel like our depth is one of our keys. Everybody just has to step up." 昨天抓下9篮板送出5助攻的Jason Kidd说："我们去年也经历过Dirk缺阵 了九场的时期，我们有很多有才能的人，我们的深度很够，这是我们的 优势，大家都可以跳出来。" The Mavericks have outscored opponents by an average of 19.2 points in winning six straight at home - and given their recent history in this series - have to like their chances of keeping things going with Phoenix (6-9) coming to town. 小牛在最近主场的六连胜中，平均胜分是19.2分，而且看看他们对战太 阳的历史战绩，明天应该有机会继续连胜。 Dallas, which has beaten the Suns eight consecutive times on its own court by 12.7 points per game, has also taken six straight from Phoenix overall. 小牛在主场对太阳已经八连胜了，平均胜分12.7分，而对上太阳也已经 拿到六连胜了。 The Suns, however, enter this matchup on a bit of a roll after posting back-to-back victories for just the second time this season. Two nights after prevailing 91-88 at New York, Phoenix handed Boston a 79-71 defeat Friday on the fourth stop of this five-game trip. 不过太阳近况有所回升，他们拿下今年第二次的二连胜，先是以91-88在 客场打败纽约尼克，然後两天後又以79-71客场击败波士顿塞尔提克，这 是他们客场五连战的第四场。 Center Marcin Gortat recorded 24 points and 12 rebounds for his seventh double-double in as many games while Steve Nash had 11 points and nine assists. 中锋Marcin Gortat攻下24分12篮板，并且连七场拿下双十，Steve Nash 则是攻下11分9助攻。 "Steve put on a show, and people found me in the right spots," Gortat said. "We have to start winning. We tripped a couple of times at home. Now we need to make it up on the road." Gortat说："Steve展现了他的球技，而且大家都能在对的位置找到我， 我们得开始赢球了，我们之前在主场失败了几次，我们必须在客场弥补 回来。" Gortat is averaging 19.0 points and 11.3 boards in his last three matchups in this series. He had 22 and 10, respectively, in a 98-89 loss at Dallas on Jan. 4. Gortat最近三场对小牛平均攻下19.0分11.3篮板，他在1月4日对小牛的 比赛中攻下22分10篮板，不过太阳以89-98败阵。 Odom's career average of 16.3 points versus the Suns is his highest against any opponent. Odom生涯对太阳场均得分是16.3分，是他对所有对手的最高纪录。 In addition to Nowitzki, Vince Carter (sprained left foot), who spent the majority of 2010-11 with Phoenix before signing with the Mavericks in the offseason, is also out. 除了Dirk之外，去年大部分时间待在太阳的Vince Carter也因为左脚扭 伤不会出赛。 http://www.nba.com/games/20120123/PHXDAL/gameinfo.html?ls=gt2hp0021100249 赌盘又多一个赞助选项了XD 希望能在这次主场连战中延续连胜!! 也祝大家新年快乐~~ Let's Go Mavs!! --
