Knicks-Mavericks Preview With their offense misfiring since a six-game win streak, the Dallas Mavericks are on the verge of losing three straight for only the second time in 21 months. 达拉斯小牛最近的火力消失了，让他们不但中止了六连胜，还有可能要 吞下最近21个月以来第二次的三连败。 The Mavericks, however, may not need to kick things into high gear Wednesday night against the New York Knicks, who have found virtually no success on the road this season and may be without an ailing Carmelo Anthony. 不过明天小牛应该不需要特别好的表现，因为对手纽约尼克本季的客场 成绩惨淡，而且可能还会缺少Carmelo Anthony。 During its recent winning streak, Dallas (10-5) - which leads the NBA with an average of 109.3 points - scored 118.6 per game, though that number was significantly bumped by three contests ending with point totals of 123, 131 and 140. 10胜5败的小牛尽管靠着之前连胜时期平均118.6分的强大得分能力，目 前以单场109.3分作为联盟炮火最猛的球队。不过这个平均得分一部份也 是因为连胜的最後三场打出123、131、140分给冲高的。 Dallas, which beat Philadelphia by 53 and the Los Angeles Lakers by 34 in that span, then ran into a wall Saturday at Houston in a 95-92 loss. The difference came from 3-point range, where the teams shot a combined 21 for 81 with 15 of those 3s made by the Rockets. 小牛以53分之差痛宰费城76人，也一度以34分之差大胜洛杉矶湖人，但 之後在休士顿火箭主场以92-95落败，两队的分水岭在三分线上，小牛 与火箭那场的三分球一共投81中21，不过火箭包办了其中15颗。 After being held below 100 points for only the third time this season, the Mavs returned to that plateau Monday at home against Indiana but managed only one field goal over the final 7:17 to walk away with a 111-100 loss. 小牛本季只有三度得分不到100分，尽管昨天他们勉强得到100分，但是 他们在第四节的最後7分17秒只有一个进球，让球队最後以100-111败给 印第安纳溜马。 "You can't always try to outscore the other team every single night," said center Tyson Chandler, the NBA's Defensive Player of the Year in 2011-12. "Some nights, you're going to rely on your defense." 2011-12球季曾拿下联盟最佳防守球员的Tyson Chandler说："我们不能 总是想着比对手得更多分，有时候我们得靠防守来赢球。" Monta Ellis scored 24 points and Dirk Nowitzki had 22 points and 11 rebounds for Dallas, which lost three straight games just once last season - the club's only skid of that length since February 2013. Monta Ellis昨天得到24分，Dirk Nowitzki拿下22分11篮板，小牛上季 只有吞下一次三连败，再更前一次要追溯到2013年2月。 A defense that sits in the middle of the league rankings at both 99.6 points allowed per game and 45.1 percent shooting may not have to contend with Anthony, the NBA scoring champion in '12-13 who is averaging 23.2 points this season. 尼克的平均失分是99.6分，对手命中率45.1%，要是Anthony缺阵可能更 难与敌队抗衡，Melo是2012-13球季的得分王，他本季场均23.2分。 Anthony, who admitted to dealing with knee pain after a Nov. 18 loss at Milwaukee, did not play in the second half of Monday's 91-86 loss at Houston because of back spasms. Anthony承认他在之前对上密尔瓦基公鹿时，就已经感到膝盖不太舒服， 昨天作客休士顿时，又因为背部抽筋缺席下半场的比赛，球队最後以86-91 吞下败仗。 "Back spasms are really tough to deal with," Knicks coach Derek Fisher said of Anthony, who didn't talk to the media after the game reportedly because he was in so much pain. "He felt very uncomfortable, and we have to see." 尼克教练Derek Fisher谈到Anthony："背部抽筋让人很头痛，他感觉不 太舒服，我们要再观察。"Melo因为伤势太痛了，所以没有参与赛後的访 问。 Anthony didn't practice Tuesday with the team in Dallas and is listed as doubtful. Melo今天没有参加练习，明天能否上场还未定。 Without their star forward, the Knicks (4-11) could be hard-pressed to duplicate their most recent road performance against Dallas, which had beaten New York in three straight home meetings before posting its lowest point total of last season in a 92-80 loss Jan. 5. 4胜11败的尼克在缺少头号球星之後，可能很难延续最近一次客场对上 小牛的表现。小牛在上季之前主场对上尼克拿下三连胜，不过在上一季 的对战当中，小牛拿到本季最低的得分，以80-92败北。 The Knicks of this season in no way resemble the team that dominated that night, losing all six of their road games since winning their first in Cleveland on Oct. 30. 现在的尼克很难延续那时的表现了，他们本季自从开幕战在克里夫兰取 胜之後，就吞下了客场六连败。 The assumption some may have about New York's January win in Dallas is that Chandler's presence contributed to the stout defense, but the center was working his way back from injury and played less than five minutes. 一般人会猜测尼克那时对小牛坚强的防守，要归功於Chandler的好表现， 但其实那场比赛Chandler因为受伤只打了5分钟而已。 New York shipped Chandler back to Dallas in an offseason trade that brought in point guard Jose Calderon, who missed the first 13 games with a strained calf and has totaled 12 points and eight assists in the last two games. 尼克今年夏天把Chandler送回小牛，换来Jose Calderon，Calderon因为 小腿拉伤缺席了季初的13场比赛，归队後的两场比赛他一共得到12分8助 攻。 The Knicks and Mavericks split their two meetings in each of the last three seasons. The most recent ended with Dallas prevailing 110-108 at Madison Square Garden on Feb. 24 despite Anthony's 44 points. 两队去年的交手各取一胜，今年2月24日时小牛在客场以110-108险胜， Dirk的最後一击压倒了Melo拿下44分的表现。 看到上一场打溜马打成这样 实在不知道明天会打成怎样了...加油吧 Let's Go Mavs!! --
