Timberwolves-Mavericks Preview Though the Dallas Mavericks have played well at home, they won't take anything for granted during the longest stay in club history. 达拉斯小牛主场成绩不错，不过在这波队史最长的主场连战中，他们不会 把胜利视为理所当然。 They'll look for a fourth consecutive victory at home and overall Wednesday night against a Minnesota Timberwolves team that has fared well in Dallas of late. 小牛希望拿下主场四连胜，明天将对上明尼苏达灰狼，灰狼在这几年带给 小牛不少麻烦。 A day after concluding a 2-1 trip with a 109-86 win over Oklahoma City, Dallas (41-27) opened a franchise-high eight-game homestand by grinding out a 94-89 victory over lowly Boston on Monday. Five Mavericks scored in double figures as Dallas overcame a 42.3 percent shooting effort by holding the Celtics to 36.6 percent. 在客场三连战最终以109-86击败奥克拉荷马雷霆，取得2胜1败回家之後， 昨天小牛以94-89击败战绩不佳的波士顿塞尔提克，为首次的主场8连战拿 下好彩头，战绩来到41胜27败。小牛有五名球员得分破10，并且靠着42.3% 的命中率压过塞尔提克的36.6%，惊险获胜。 Boston, though, wiped out most of two double-digit deficits in the second half and was within one point in the final minute thanks to a 57-36 rebounding advantage that included 21 offensive boards. 塞尔提克多次化解下半场10分以上的落後，在最後关头还追到1分差，多亏 了他们在篮板上取得57-36得优势，进攻篮板更是抢了21个。 "We all know that after an emotional and tough win on the road (over the Thunder) sometimes it's hard to get up the next day, especially against a team that so-called does not have a great record," said Dirk Nowitzki, who had 19 points on 6-of-17 shooting and has scored fewer than 20 in four of five. "But we wanted to get this win somehow and it wasn't pretty. We're fortunate to come away with the win." Dirk Nowitzki昨天投17中6攻得19分，这是他五场以来第四次得分不到20 分，他说："我们在前一天辛苦的拿下客场胜利後，今天对上战绩较差的球 队表现的不够好，但是我们还是需要拿到这胜，尽管过程不太漂亮，我们 很幸运的能笑着离开球场。" Seventh in the Western Conference, the Mavericks have won five of six and matched their win total from last season Monday. Dallas has taken 11 of 15 at home and allowed an average of 93.7 points in the last three there, but five of the next seven during the home stretch are against teams currently above .500. 小牛近六战拿下五胜，排名西区第七，目前的41胜已经追平去年的总和。 小牛近15场拿下11胜，最近三场主场平均只失93.7分，不过接下来的七场 主场，有五个对手胜率高过五成。 The Mavericks hope Monday's resiliency will pay off for the rest of the homestand. 小牛希望接下来的比赛都能保持像昨天那样的韧性。 "I think we've always had a winning attitude," guard Devin Harris said. "We have a veteran group, so (this home stretch) can really push us where we want to be. I think guys know what's at stake." 後卫Devin Harris说："我认为我们的态度很好，大家都是老将了，这波 主场连战有机会能让我们的战绩大幅提升，全队都知道重要性。" Though Minnesota (33-32) is 10th in the West and 5 1/2 games out of the final playoff spot, it's won two of three against the Mavericks this season and three of the last four in Dallas. 尽管灰狼的战绩只有33胜32败，西区第10，且落後第八的曼斐斯灰熊还有 5场半，但是在本季的三次交手中，灰狼拿了两胜，去年也在四次对战拿了 三胜。 Kevin Martin scored 27 while Nikola Pekovic added 21 as the Timberwolves shot 50.6 percent in a 112-106 win at the American Airlines Center on Nov. 30. 在本季第一次於达拉斯交手时，Kevin Martin拿到27分，Nikola Pekovic 攻下21分，灰狼以50.6%的命中率，在客场以112-106打败小牛。 "We've got to get ready for them, it's always been a physical game with them," said Dallas forward Shawn Marion, who had a season-high 32 points and blocked Kevin Love's jumper at the buzzer in the Mavericks' 100-98 victory at Minnesota on Dec. 30, the most recent meeting. 小牛前锋Shawn Marion说："我们得做好准备，对上他们总是相当的激烈。" 上次交手时，Marion拿到本季新高的32分，还在最後关头"盖"掉Kevin Love 企图追平的跳投，以100-98险胜。 Love has averaged 30.4 points in his last five against the Mavericks. He's totaled 68 points in two home games versus Dallas this season, but had 21 on Nov. 30 - more than five below his season average. Love最近五次对上小牛平均得到30.4分，在本季两次主场对上小牛一共得了 68分，不过在客场那次对战却只有21分，比起赛季平均少了5分。 He finished with 26 points and 10 boards and Martin scored 31 as the Timberwolves overcame 48.2 percent shooting from Sacramento to win 104-102 at home Sunday. 昨天他拿到26分10篮板，加上Martin的31分帮助下，灰狼以104-102主场打败 沙加缅度国王，灰狼让对手的命中率来到48.2%。 Though Minnesota has its highest victory total in eight seasons, it's alternated losses and wins in the last six. 灰狼已经拿下八季以来的最高胜场，不过他们在最近六场只有三胜三败的表 现。 After recording season highs of 12 points and 11 rebounds in his first start Sunday, rookie center Gorgui Dieng could again see more time if Pekovic misses a second straight contest with ankle soreness. 灰狼的新秀中锋Gorgui Dieng昨天首度先发，拿到本季新高的12分11篮板， 如果明天Pekovic将因为脚踝酸痛再度缺阵的话，他有机会得到不少上场时 间。 灰狼这两年也是打的蛮糟的...主要还是篮板跟外线要守住啊 希望主场能继续连胜下去!! Let's Go Mavs!! --
