Mavericks-Knicks Preview Tremendous scoring led by Dirk Nowitzki has the Dallas Mavericks surging into playoff position. 火力全开的Dirk Nowitzki带领达拉斯小牛往西区更高顺位冲刺。 Carmelo Anthony's dazzling offensive efforts, meanwhile, are being wasted by the fading New York Knicks. 而尽管Carmelo Anthony的可怕进攻表现，纽约尼克依旧积弱不振，浪费了Melo 的成绩。 Nowitzki looks to continue his strong stretch and lead the Mavericks on Monday night against Anthony and the Knicks at Madison Square Garden. Dirk希望延续最近的手感，明天小牛将前往Madison Square Garden踢馆。 Dallas (34-23) has won nine of 12 games while averaging 107.5 points. The Mavericks have a chance to sweep this three-game road swing after scoring 118.5 points per game on 55.1 percent shooting in double-digit wins at Philadelphia and Detroit. 34胜23败的小牛近12战九胜，平均能得到107.5分，明天要是能赢，就能拿下 客场三连战的全胜回家。近两战作客费城与底特律的胜利中，小牛平均得到 118.5分，命中率55.1%，且胜分皆破十。 Nowitzki is a big part of Dallas' recent surge, helping it climb into eighth in the Western Conference. Dirk是小牛从西区第八往上爬的关键人物。 The forward is averaging 24.5 points on 57.0 percent from the floor - 49.1 from beyond the arc - over the past 12 games. He connected on 58.1 percent of his field goals in the two road wins, sinking 7 of 14 3-pointers while totaling 49 points. Dirk在最近12战平均24.5分，命中率57.0%，三分线外命中率49.1%。而最近 两场客场胜利中他的命中率更是来到58.1%，三分球投14中7，一共得到49分。 The 12-time All-Star scored 24 in a 113-102 victory over the Pistons on Saturday as six Mavericks scored in double digits, and the team totaled 31 assists one day after getting a season-high 39. 12度入选明星赛的Dirk昨天攻下24分，帮助小牛客场以113-102打败活塞，小 牛有六名球员得分破十，传出31次助攻，前一场比赛他们才传出本季球队新高 的39次助攻。 "It helps when you're not turning the ball over, plain and simple," guard Vince Carter told the team's official website after Dallas committed 14 turnovers Saturday - 11 fewer than the season-high 25 while beating the 76ers. "We can score and we get the job done when we're efficient and we take care of the ball. We were just sharing the ball and I think guys were finding the open man. Guys were making shots, but we were just making plays for each other." 後卫Vince Carter说："当我们没有太常失误时，比赛就变的简单多了，只要我 们掌控好球，我们的进攻能力就没有问题，我们只需要好好的传导球，大家都 在找寻空档的队友。最近大家的手感都很好，但我们还是愿意传球给其他人。" 小牛在对上七六人时犯下本季最多的25次失误，昨天全队的失误降低到14个。 Anthony might appreciate some help from the rest of the Knicks (21-35). The superstar forward is averaging 31.3 points during their 2-8 stretch, but Tim Hardaway Jr. is the next highest scorer over that span at 11.9 per game. 而21胜35败的尼克则是需要Anthony以外的火力支援，这位明星前锋最近10场 比赛平均31.3分，球队却仅有2胜8败，这段时间球队平均得分第二高的是得到 11.9分的Tim Hardaway Jr.。 That gap has been even wider the past three games, with Anthony averaging 40.3 points and no other Knick above 13.3. 最近三场更是夸张，Anthony平均得到40.3分，其他尼克球员却没有超过13.3分 的平均得分。 He did his part again Saturday, scoring 35 points and hitting 13 of 25 from the field while the rest of the team shot 40.6 percent in a 107-98 loss at Atlanta. 昨天他尽力了，投25中13攻下35分，不过其他队员的命中率只有40.6%，最後 尼克以98-107客场败给亚特兰大老鹰。 Frustration is growing for Anthony, who has already stated he won't leave the Knicks via free agency after the season. Anthony感到挫折，不过他说他在今年不会跳脱合约成为自由球员。 "It's same things, different days," Anthony said. "It's starting to get tough to handle. It's definitely tested me. The frustration has definitely sunk in." Anthony说："情况越来越糟了，这是对我的考验，我最近感到有些挫折。" Reality may also be starting to set in since Anthony may miss the playoffs for the first time in his 11 NBA seasons. 现实的情况可能会开始改变Melo的想法，他可能会在11年NBA生涯中首度没有 季後赛可以打。 Coach Mike Woodson, though, isn't ready to give up. 不过尼克教练Mike Woodson还没有准备要放弃。 "I'm going to keep coaching and I'm going to keep pushing," Woodson said. "If it means being naggy or whatever, that's my job. But I've got to get them over the hump, man. I've got to get them over this funk that we're in." Woodson说："我会继续执教，并且继续帮助球队进步，就算要我扮黑脸。我的 工作就是要带领球队走出低潮。" The Knicks won 92-80 at Dallas on Jan. 5, limiting Nowitzki to 18 points, and have taken the last two matchups at MSG while holding the Mavs to an average of 95.5 points. 尼克今年稍早曾在客场以92-80打败小牛，仅让Dirk得到18分，并且已经拿下 主场对战小牛的二连胜，平均失分只有95.5分。 They took the latest meeting there 104-94 on Nov. 9, 2012, behind Anthony's 31 points. Nowitzki, though, missed that game recovering from knee surgery. 两队最近一次在纽约碰头，Anthony攻下31分，帮助尼克以104-94获胜，不过 Dirk因为膝盖手术复原中没有上场。 He's averaged 29.8 points in his past 11 games - eight wins - at the Garden, making 52.0 percent of his shots, including 46.4 from long range. Dirk最近11场作客MSG平均得到29.8分，拿下八胜，命中率高达52.0%，三分球 命中率46.4%。 希望这次客场之旅能全胜作收 不要再输尼克啦~~ Let's Go Mavs!! --
