Mavericks-Spurs Preview While San Antonio Spurs steamrolled toward their fourth 60-win season in 11 years, coach Gregg Popovich was asked if there is a secret formula for the franchise's almost unfathomable run of excellence. 圣安东尼奥马刺本季拿下傲视全联盟的60胜，这是他们11年以来第四度达成 这样的里程碑，总教练Gregg Popovich被问到马刺王朝成功的秘诀。 "Yes there is," said Popovich, in typical deadpan fashion. "Get the No. 1 pick in the draft every 10 years and make sure that it's a franchise player. That's the formula. That's how lucky you have to be. You've got David (Robinson) for a decade and then Timmy (Duncan) comes. Well, I think most anybody could build around that." Popovich用一贯死板的语调说："我的确有秘方，就是每10年选一个足以担任 球队核心人物的状元，就是这样。我的运气很好，在David Robinson打了10年 之後，Tim Duncan加入了球队，我想任何一个教练都能将这支球队打造成一个 王朝。" Of course, Popovich is oversimplifying. What the Spurs have created is a program unlike any other in the league, one built on the willingness of three stars to take less money, band together and establish a culture and a pecking order under their no-nonsense coach. 当然，Popovich过份谦虚了，马刺的系统有别於联盟其他球队，三巨头愿意降 薪让球队有更多补强空间，全队上下团结一心，塑造出马刺的文化，当然关键 少不了严律制军的总教练。 "Everybody knows their secrets," Minnesota Timberwolves coach Rick Adelman said. "It doesn't do you any good, though." 灰狼的总教练Rick Adelman谈到这点时，他说："大家都知道他们成功的方法， 但在别的球队不见得用的上。" The Spurs finished with an NBA-best 62-20 record, wiping out last season's heart-breaking loss in the NBA Finals in emphatic fashion. Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili are back for another run, and standing in their way is another one of the league's most enduring forces. 马刺拿下联盟之冠的62胜20败，将去年总冠军战的痛苦失利抛诸脑後，Duncan、 Tony Parker与Manu Ginobili组成的三巨头将再度挑战冠军，第一个考验，就是 另一个叱吒联盟数年的球队，达拉斯小牛。 In his 16th season, Dirk Nowitzki has enjoyed a renaissance, averaging 21.7 points, 6.2 rebounds and shooting 49.7 percent from the field to lead the Dallas Mavericks back to the playoffs. That patented one-legged step-back jumper is as dangerous as ever. He's battled Duncan for 16 years now, and one more matchup should be a thriller. Dirk Nowitzki在生涯第16个球季打出回春的表现，平均21.7分6.2篮板，命中率 49.7%，率领小牛重活季後赛。他的注册商标－单脚後仰跳投变成更致命的武器， 16年来，他不断的与Duncan正面交锋，这次的对战也是精采可期。 "This is a treat for people that appreciate NBA basketball and the history of the game," Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle said. "And you've got two guys whose love and respect for the game is so high and their work ethic and standards are so high. They've kept it going in their mid-30s as well as anybody I've ever seen." 小牛总教练Rick Carlisle说："这个系列赛，对喜爱NBA传奇球星的球迷来说， 会是绝佳的飨宴，两位热爱并尊重比赛的球星，展现出高水准的职业道德，尽管 到了生涯尾声，他们还是不停的征战。" Here are five things to watch in the series, which begins on Sunday in San Antonio: 下面是五个德州内战的观战重点： COACHING CLASH: The series features a matchup of two of the best coaches in the league in Popovich and Carlisle. The moves and counters from the opening tip of Game 1 will be fascinating to watch, and the postgame interviews of two men completely comfortable in their own skin should be almost as entertaining. 教练斗志：联盟顶尖的教头之二，Popovich对上Carlisle的戏码，在第一战的哨 声响起後就将展开，两位教练的运筹帷幄势必相当精采，在赛後记者会时，两人 忠於自我的发言谈话，也会很有意思。 "Those little adjustments with coach Pop and Carlisle, those in-between games, trying to adjust something," Nowitzki said. "It's just a fun time." Dirk说："Popovich与Carlisle教练两人在比赛中、比赛间的阵容调整，会是很 有趣的对决。" SPURS DOMINANCE: The Spurs have won nine straight games against their in-state rivals. Parker's penetration has given the Mavericks' porous perimeter defense fits and generated easy layups or wide-open 3-pointers for the Spurs offense. On defense, the Spurs have Boris Diaw, Tiago Splitter and even Kawhi Leonard to throw at Nowitzki. 马刺的宰制：马刺目前对上小牛已经拿下九连胜，Parker的切入让小牛凄惨的 防守更显糟糕，马刺能制造内线轻松的得分，以及外线的空档。防守上，Boris Diaw、Tiago Splitter与Kawhi Leonard会用不同的方式轮番上阵防守Dirk。 "We've got to pick up our game," Carlisle said. "We haven't played well against these guys. It's pretty clear from the results and the stats. We've got to bring a better game." 卡帅说："我们要打出自己的节奏，最近几次对上马刺，我们打的不太好，从比 赛结果与数据上都看的出来，我们得打的更好。" RESTED VETERANS: As usual, Popovich did a masterful job of navigating the grind of an 82-game season and limiting the wear and tear on his aging Big Three. The Spurs didn't have a single player average 30 minutes a game this season, meaning everyone should be rested and ready for another deep run. 老将充分的休息：一如往常，Popovich在球季中精算了三巨头的上场时间，让 他们在82场比赛的赛季中得到充分休息，并且维持比赛手感。马刺是联盟唯一 一支没有球员平均上场超过30分钟的球队，他们已经养精蓄锐，准备在季後赛 大干一场。 LEONARD'S EMERGENCE: One could argue the Spurs no longer have a Big Three, but a Big Four. Leonard has delivered a career season and is the heir apparent to Duncan's throne. The Spurs are 54-14 when Leonard plays this season. Leonard的崛起：有人说，马刺已经过了三巨头时代，现在是四巨头的开端， Leonard打出生涯年，有望继承Duncan的地位，当Leonard有出赛时，马刺的 战绩是54胜14败。 "He really made a big step forward in the last two months of the season and hopefully he keeps getting better for the playoffs," Ginobili said. Ginobili说："最近两个月，他进步很多，希望他在季後赛有更好的表现。" X-FACTOR: Monta Ellis. The mercurial guard has reinvented himself in Dallas as a slightly more efficient scorer. When he gets rolling, he's tough to stop and that may represent the Mavericks' only chance at an upset. X因子：Monta Ellis是个关键角色，这位飞快的後卫在加入小牛之後成为更有 效率的得分好手，当他的土匪模式打开时，很难有人挡的住他，Ellis将是小牛 想要暴冷胜出的唯一可能。 第一战将在不到12小时後开打 大家好好欣赏倒数几次的德州世仇大战吧!! 期待Dirk、Ellis等人的好表现 Let's Go Mavs!! --
