Mavericks-Clippers Preview For a few days in July, the Dallas Mavericks thought they had pried DeAndre Jordan away from the Los Angeles Clippers. 七月初时，达拉斯小牛以为他们已经成功的挖来洛杉矶快艇的中锋DeAndre Jordan了。 The saga that ensued could only seemingly come from the pages of a screenplay. 结果剧情急转直下，简直可以媲美电影剧本了。 Jordan will get to see the Mavericks for the first time since that tense and wild portion of the summer Thursday night when they visit Staples Center. 在度过了气氛紧张的暑假之後，Jordan明天将会在主场Staples Center首 度面对小牛。 Jordan was first reported to have an agreement with Dallas for a four-year contract worth around $80 million on July 3, two days after the start of free agency. On July 8, there were rumors that the 6-foot-11 center had a change of heart. 自由市场开市的两天後，7月3日，据报Jordan已经与小牛达成4年约8000万 的口头协议。7月8日，就有消息指出这位6尺11寸的中锋改变心意了。 What followed was an exodus to Jordan's home in Houston by Clippers coach Doc Rivers, and players Blake Griffin, J.J. Redick and Paul Pierce. 之後快艇教练Doc Rivers，队友Blake Griffin、J.J. Redick与Paul Pierce 都来到Jordan位於休士顿的家，不让他外出。 They stayed inside with their teammate while denying Mavericks owner Mark Cuban and their currently injured forward Chandler Parsons a chance to talk with Jordan. Griffin sent out a photo on Twitter of a chair wedged underneath a door handle. 他们不让Jordan与小牛老板Mark Cuban与球员Chandler Parsons有任何接触 或交谈的机会，Griffin还在推特上传了一张用椅子顶住大们的照片。 The tactics paid off as Los Angeles ultimately got Jordan's signature on a four-year deal worth approximately $87 million just after midnight Eastern time. 这样的战术奏效了，快艇很快的就在自由市场开放签约的午夜时分与Jordan 签下了4年约8700万的合约。 "The most emotional part of the whole entire process was when I decided I was going to stay because I knew I had to upset and let down a whole different fanbase," he said. "That definitely got to me. Jordan说："这整个过程中，我决定留下来是因为不想让球迷们失望，这打 动了我。" "The (Mavericks) had a great presentation, a great owner, a great coach, a championship team, but at the same time, I felt like I didn't give it all of my thought. At the end of the day, we're basketball players, these great athletes, but we're also human and we make mistakes." 他说："小牛对我做了很棒的报告，有很棒的老板与教练，是个冠军球队。 不过我觉得我没有想清楚，毕竟我们只是篮球员，也跟一般人一样会犯错。" Jordan had eight points, 12 rebounds and four blocks in his first game with the Clippers under his new contract Wednesday, a 111-104 win in Sacramento. Griffin scored 33 points, and Pierce's jumper with 2:21 left started Los Angeles on an 11-4 run to end the game. Jordan今天在快艇的球季开幕战中拿到8分12篮板4火锅，帮助快艇以111- 104在客场打败沙加缅度国王，Griffin拿到33分，Paul Pierce在最後2分 21秒的跳投让快艇开启了一波11-4的攻势结束比赛。 "This group has been together for some years, they have a good understanding of one another," Pierce said. "I'm just trying to fit in and play with that group down the stretch." Pierce说："这个团队已经运作了很多年，对彼此很了解，我要做的就是 融入大家，在关键时刻做出贡献。" Dallas also opened the season with a victory Wednesday, 111-95 in Phoenix, with eight players scoring in double figures led by Raymond Felton's 18. 小牛今天也在开幕战拿下好彩头，以111-95在客场打败凤凰城太阳，队 中八名球员得分达双位数，最高分是Raymond Felton的18分。 The Mavericks got a chance to rest a little for this game after building a 27-point lead in the third quarter. 在第三节取得27分的领先之後，小牛有机会让主力球员多作休息。 "We stayed in attack mode all night and never let up, and that is how we are going to have to play," coach Rick Carlisle said. 教练Rick Carlisle说："我们整晚都在攻击模式，不让对手喘息，这就 是我们该打的方式。" Dallas blew out the Clippers 129-99 in the most recent matchup March 13, but Griffin (staph infection) and Jamal Crawford (sore calf) were inactive for Los Angeles. The Clippers have won eight of the last 11 meetings and five of the last six at home. 小牛最近一次遇上快艇时，在主场以129-99大胜，不过那场比赛Griffin 与Jamal Crawford都因伤没有上场，快艇拿下了最近11次对战当中的8胜， 并且最近6次主场对上小牛时拿下5胜。 One small reason why the Mavericks coveted Jordan was perhaps the thought of not having to face him. He has averaged 17.1 points in his last seven meetings - his highest versus any opponent in the past two seasons - and 17.3 rebounds. 小牛想尽办法要挖来Jordan，可能是因为不想面对到他，最近7次对战当 中Jordan平均能拿到17.1分17.3篮板，得分是过去两季他面对所有队伍的 最佳成绩。 Dallas forward Charlie Villanueva averaged 22.5 points on 60.7 percent shooting off the bench and went 8 of 15 from 3-point range in the final two meetings last season. 小牛的Charlie Villanueva前两次对上快艇时从板凳出发，以15投8中的 三分球与60.7%的命中率平均拿下了22.5分。 今天赢了真让人高兴 明天又是一场硬仗啊 希望能讨回暑假的怨气!! Let's Go Mavs!! --
