Mavericks-Thunder Preview Spurned by DeAndre Jordan and all the other top free agents this offseason, the Dallas Mavericks were an afterthought in the deep Western Conference. 暑假被DeAndre Jordan骗的团团转的小牛，被大家认为在实力坚强的西区 难以出头。 Kevin Durant's return made the Oklahoma City Thunder a popular pick to win it. 而一般预料Kevin Durant的回归将会让奥克拉荷马雷霆有很大的机会在西 区出线。 Yet it's Dallas developing the chemistry of a title contender as Oklahoma City stumbles while playing through Durant's latest injury. 然而，现在小牛产生的化学效应让他们的战绩理想，而雷霆又因为Durant 的脚伤，战绩平平。 The reigning champion Warriors are the only team hotter than the Mavericks, who visit the Thunder on Sunday night going for their longest winning streak since the season in which they won the title. Achieving that feat would surely be made easier if Durant is still unable to go. 卫冕冠军金州勇士是目前唯一连胜比小牛长的球队，明天小牛将作客挑战 雷霆，挑战自从2011年以来最长的七连胜，如果KD明天不能上场，将是小 牛的一大利多。 There's a chance the former MVP will be back in action after missing the past five games. He was originally expected to miss 7-to-10 days after straining his left hamstring Nov. 10 in a win at Washington. KD在过去已经缺席了五场比赛，这位前MVP球员预计将会因为左腿拉伤休养 7到10天，他是在11月10日受伤的，所以很有可能在明天归队。 Oklahoma City is 2-3 since losing Durant, with the only victories coming against each conference's worst team - winless Philadelphia and a New Orleans squad missing Anthony Davis. 雷霆在KD受伤之後只有2胜3败，2胜分别来自分区的垫底球队－费城七六人 与缺少了Anthony Davis的纽奥良鹈鹕。 "I think you gotta see the big picture, and realize it's tough to win especially when you've got your best player out," forward Nick Collison said after Friday's 93-90 home loss to New York. "... Really all you can do is control your effort and your concentration, and try to avoid other things that come in and distract you from doing that." 前锋Nick Collison在昨天以90-93在主场败给纽约尼克之後说到："当缺少 了全队最佳的球员之後，是很难赢球的。我们只能保持专注，避免其他事 情干扰我们。" The Mavericks are no longer dealing with the distraction of questions about free-agent stars like Jordan, who again chose not to join them. Just enjoying playing together, according to offseason acquisitions Deron Williams and Zaza Pachulia, has keyed Dallas (9-4) getting hot. 而小牛也不再为了Jordan的毁约而烦恼，在Deron Williams与Zaza Pachulia 加入後全队相处融洽，拿到9胜4败的战绩，并打出六连胜。 "I'm having fun right now, being a part of this team," Williams told the team's official website. "You know, we've talked about it a lot, but this is a great group of guys that we have in this locker room. It sounds cliche, but it's the truth. We all just enjoy each other, we all like each other and love playing for each other." 蝶龙在球队官网访问说到："我现在打球很快乐，跟全队在休息室里相处融 洽，这很像场面话，但这是真的，我们喜爱一起打球的感觉。" Williams set or tied season highs with 23 points, eight assists, six rebounds and three steals in Friday's 102-93 win over Utah. Williams在昨天主场对上犹他爵士的比赛中拿到23分6篮板8助攻，皆为本 季新高，率队以102-93获胜。 It was the Mavericks' sixth consecutive victory - only Golden State is riding a longer win streak with its 14-0 start. Dallas hasn't had a longer one since having three win streaks of seven or more during its 2010-11 championship season. 这是小牛的六连胜，只有勇士的开季14连胜比他们更火热，在2010-11的 夺冠球季拿下过三次七连胜之後，小牛就没再连赢过七场。 "It's so much fun to play with these guys," Pachulia said. "Guys that we have in this locker room really know how to play, and they're unselfish guys. I definitely enjoy it." Pachulia说："跟大家一起打球很快乐，每个人都知道该怎麽打，也不自 私，我很享受这一切。" Pachulia had 15 points and 12 rebounds Friday, and the Mavs improved to 6-1 when he gets a double-double. Pachulia昨天拿到15分12篮板，小牛在他拿下双十的比赛中战绩6胜1败。 As for 37-year-old Dirk Nowitzki, he's playing efficient basketball with a slightly diminished role. His averages of 13.2 field-goal attempts and 28.9 minutes are his lowest since his rookie season, but he's shooting a career-best 53.2 percent after hitting 17 of 26 in the last two games. 而37岁的Dirk Nowitzki虽然上场时间控制在新人年以来最低的28.9分钟 以及平均13.2次的出手次数，但他的效率惊人，在进两战投26中17之後， 本季命中率来到生涯最佳的53.2%。 Dallas can further prove it is for real with a stretch of three road games in four nights, including stops in Memphis and San Antonio. The Mavs are 5-2 away from home. 小牛希望在接下来的三场客场硬战证明他们真的有这番实力，依序将碰 上曼斐斯灰熊与圣安东尼奥马刺，小牛本季客场战绩5胜2败。 "We've got to play with the same defensive energy and try to execute the game plan, as the opponents get tougher," Nowitzki said. "... If we run back and talk defensively and rebound with them, we've got a shot against anybody." Dirk说："对手越来越强了，我们得打出一样的防守能量，并且依照进 攻战术走。如果我们能持续这样的防守与团队篮板能力，我们能跟任何 球队抗衡。" The Mavs have limited opponents to 40.5 percent from the field during their win streak. 在这波连胜中，小牛让对手只有40.5%的命中率。 The Thunder are shooting 41.9 percent in five games without Durant. Russell Westbrook is 11 for 37 from 3-point range in that span. 雷霆在Durant缺阵的五场比赛中命中率只有41.9%，Russell Westbrook 这段期间内三分球投37中11。 Oklahoma City's lone win in four meetings in 2014-15 was the only one in which Durant played. That Feb. 19 game turned out to be his last of the season due to a foot injury. 雷霆上个赛季对上小牛4次只赢了1场，就是唯一Durant有打的比赛。2月 19号的那次较量是他上季最後一次的出赛，之後就因为脚伤报销。 不知道明天KD会不会回来 希望继续维持好表现拿下连胜啊!!
