Mavericks-Spurs Preview Dirk Nowitzki hasn't had many open shots in the first-round series against San Antonio. Tony Parker usually gets chased all over the court by Dallas defensive ace Shawn Marion. 达拉斯小牛的Dirk Nowitzki在系列赛中得不到太多空档，而圣安东尼奥马刺的 Tony Parker也被小牛的防守悍将Shawn Marion满场追着跑。 The German forward and the French point guard sure look like top priorities for the opposing defense in a series tied 2-all heading into Game 5 on Wednesday night. 这两位来自德国与法国的球星，在第五战依旧会是双方防守的重点，两队在前四 战打成2-2平手。 And both teams are winning without dominant games from their leading scorers in the regular season. 两队在前面四战的胜利，都不完全仰赖这两位球队得分王的发挥。 "They have a lot of guys on their team that are first priorities," Dallas' Vince Carter said. "It's not just one. Trust me. Whoever has the ball is probably the first priority." 小牛的Vince Carter说："对手有许多能作为第一攻击手的球员，不是只有一个 人，相信我。只要是持球者，就会是我们的防守目标。" Carter had a game-winning 3-pointer at the buzzer in Game 3. Boris Diaw put the Spurs ahead with a shot from long range in the final minute of a Game 4 win. VC在第三战的砍进压哨逆转三分球，而Boris Diaw则是在第四战的最後关头投进 致胜超前三分弹。 Monta Ellis has been tough for San Antonio to stop in the second half of games. Spurs reserve guard Manu Ginobili has two of the four highest-scoring games in the series. Monta Ellis在下半场的爆发让马刺头痛不已，马刺的替补後卫Manu Ginobili在 球队的前四战当中，两度拿下全场最高分。 Parker has virtually disappeared since scoring 17 points in the first half of Game 3, and now he's dealing with a mild left ankle sprain that appeared to happen in Game 4, when he had a series-low 10 points on 5-of-14 shooting. Parker在第三战的上半场攻下17分之後就消失了，现在传出他在第四战扭伤了左 脚踝，伤势不严重，但他在昨天投14只中5，拿下系列最低的10分。 "He didn't have a great game by any means, but it happens. He'll be fine," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said after the game. "I don't think the same guys are going to play great every night in a series." 马刺教练Gregg Popovich赛後说："他在各方面都没有表现的很好，但他会没事 的，我不认为会有一个球员在系列赛中的每场比赛都打得很好。" Nowitzki hasn't been shut down completely. His scoring has steadily increased in the series, topped by 19 points in Game 4. Dirk并没有完全被守住，他的得分慢慢的上升，昨天他拿下系列最高的19分。 Still, the 7-foot sharpshooter has been held under 20 points in four straight playoff games for the first time since his first postseason in 2001. And he's not getting any freedom at the 3-point line. He has just five attempts in four games, and has made one. 这是他自从2001年季後赛对马刺以来，首度在季後赛连续四场得分不到20分， 他就算到了三分线外也不会有空档，四战下来他仅出手5次，命中1球。 Nowitzki missed all three tries from long range in Game 4, and was short on a rare open mid-range jumper with the Mavericks up by one late. 第四战他的三分球3投不中，在第四节紧要关头落後1分时，也投失了出现空档 的中距离跳投。 "He's missed some easy bunnies that I think he's rushed because now when they're open he's like, `Oh, man I've got to get it up,"' Carter said. "He beats himself up over it. He'll play through it. He'll be fine." VC说："Dirk投失了一些简单的球，我想是因为在他难得碰上空档时，他会想着 这球非进不可。他被自己的感觉所影响，不过Dirk会挺过去的。" Dallas coach Rick Carlisle is aware that the sight of Nowitzki with the ball and room to operate has been rare. 小牛教练Rick Carlisle也发现Dirk在持球制造空间的时候总是被对手紧黏着。 "I'm working to try to help get him more," Carlisle said. "In the playoffs, a lot of the game comes down to playing out of flow. When we're doing it well, the ball moves and it moves through the hands of the best players as much as possible." 卡帅说："我试着让他有更多机会攻击，在季後赛里，偶尔会被打乱节奏。当我 们很顺利的传导球时，我希望最後能让我们最强的球员拿到球。" Parker's mid-range jumper was surprisingly off target in Game 4, and he even missed a couple of layups when trying his other specialty - getting to the rim. Parker在第四战时的中距离意外的失去准心，而且甚至几次上篮也放枪。 Popovich said Parker was day to day with a Grade 1 sprain, the mildest. No MRI or X-rays were planned, an indication that he will be out there trying to match his Game 1 showing. He came up limping at one point Monday night but kept playing. Popovich说Parker因为脚踝的最轻微的一级扭伤进入每日观察名单，他没有要照 MRI或是X光，一般预期他还是会试着打出像第一战一样的水准，昨天他一度用一 拐一拐的走路，但还是回到场上。 Parker finished with 21 points in the series opener, including the go-ahead basket on a spinning layup during a 14-0 run in the fourth quarter. Parker在第一战拿下21分，包括在第四节的一波14-0中，以一个转身上篮拿下超 前分。 "If Parker's having some down stretches, it probably means we're busting our butt and doing a good job on him," Carlisle said. "But when the Ginobilis and (Tiago) Splitters and Diaws make plays, that means that we aren't getting it done in some other areas." 卡帅说："如果Parker在最後关头有精采表现，大概是代表我们已相当努力，并且 在防守他上面做的很好。但如果是Ginobili与Tiago Splitter或Diaw的小组配合 打出攻势，就是我们防守上的缺失了。" The question is whether either team can win the series without something resembling dominance from Nowitzki or Parker. Nowitzki says the Mavericks might have to. 问题来了，两队有可能在Nowitzki或是Parker都没有打出最佳表现的情况下晋级 吗？Dirk说小牛必须这样做。 "They are just taking my air space away," Nowitzki said. "That's what the good teams have done the last couple of years. If it's not there, I'm going swing it and let someone else make a play." Dirk说："我快要连呼吸的空间都没有了，这是我这几年来遇到很好的防守，如果 我的机会没有出来，我会试着传给队友。" That approach has actually worked for both teams in a series boiling down to a best of three. 这样的防守方法正如两队的意，现在他们把系列赛打成三战两胜的比赛。 Mavericks center DeJuan Blair has been suspended for this game for kicking Splitter in the head Monday. Blair is averaging 5.5 points and 4.5 rebounds in the postseason. 小牛的中锋DeJuan Blair在昨天的比赛中踢了Splitter，明天将被禁赛一场，他 在系列赛中平均5.5分4.5篮板。 前几战就算输了也很接近 而且都在第四节有领先、赢球的机会 第五战继续打出水准 小牛还是很有机会的!! Let's Go Mavs!! --
