Spurs-Mavericks Preview The Dallas Mavericks know they will avoid the NBA's best team when they open the postseason and now they are in good position to avoid the second-best club as well. 小牛已经确定季後赛第一轮不会遇到联盟最佳的球队(勇士)，而现在他们有机会避开战 绩第二好的马刺。 The Mavericks can secure at least the Western Conference's No. 6 seed when they host a short-handed San Antonio Spurs club in the regular-season finale Wednesday night. 小牛有绝佳的机会能够取得西区至少第6的位置，因为他们本季最後一场将在主场遇上 最近人手短缺的马刺。 (我们才人手短缺吧...马刺Diaw、Aldridge有伤应该不会上，可爱跟TP确定不会出赛) Dallas (42-39) clinched its 15th playoff berth in the last 16 years with Monday's 101-92 victory at Utah. The Mavericks have won seven of eight after Deron Williams scored 23 points and Dirk Nowitzki had 22 and 11 boards. "Well, it's been a lot of work," coach Rick Carlisle said. "It's been an amazing two weeks. Our guys looked like they were down and out, and we all dug in. Everyone dug in, especially the players, and we found a way to get into the playoffs." 在星期一战胜爵士队之後，Dallas挺进最近16年的第15次季後赛。这也是小牛最近八战 的第七场胜利，其中小胖得了23分，Dirk则是22分外带11篮板。教练Carlisle说:"这不 是轻松的工作，两个礼拜来的惊人表现。我们的球员显露出疲态，因为我们每一个人都 很认真，特别是球员们，而我们已经找到进季後赛的方法了。" There's little doubt that Dallas wants to avoid being the seventh seed for a matchup with San Antonio (66-15) after losing 14 of the previous 16 regular-season meetings, including all three this season. 毫无疑问，小牛会想在季後赛避开马刺，因为他们在最近的16场的常规赛对战中输掉了 14场，包含本季的前三场交手。 "You know, this team wants to be as high of a seed as possible, and that's what we're going to try to do," Williams told the Mavericks' official website. "And we'll try to take care of business at home against San Antonio." Now the only way the Mavericks can finish seventh is with a loss to the Spurs and an upset victory by Memphis at Golden State later Wednesday. Dallas will gain the sixth seed with a victory or a loss by the Grizzlies and will be fifth with a win and a loss by Portland at home to Denver. 小胖跟球队官网说:"你知道的，我们希望获得更高的排名，这也是我们一直在做的，我 们会全力以赴明天和马刺的交战"。目前，唯一会使小牛落到第7顺位的是明天输给马刺 而且灰熊打赢勇士。然而小牛获胜或灰熊落败，都会使小牛保有第6顺位。若小牛获胜且 拓荒者输给金块，则小牛将会以第5顺位进入季後赛。 Although the Mavericks have enjoyed little success against one of their Lone Star state rivals, the task should be easier in this one. The Spurs won 102-98 in overtime over Oklahoma City on Tuesday and figure to rest many of their stars one night later, with Kawhi Leonard and Tony Parker confirming they won't be making the trip. 小牛还享受着在打赢同是德州的竞争者(火箭)所取得的优势，然而明天对上马刺应该会 比较轻松。马刺今日打到延长赛才以102比98战胜雷霆，估计阵中的一些球员会在Dallas 的比赛中休息，已经确定Kawhi Leonard和Tony Parker不会跟随球队前往客场。 One player who also probably won't be there is LaMarcus Aldridge, who exited three minutes into the third quarter and didn't return. He doesn't appear to be injured, with coach Gregg Popovich saying Aldridge left because he needed to use the restroom. LaMarcus Aldridge也可能不会上场，在对雷霆之战的第三节开始三分钟，他就离开球场 并且没有再回来。对此马刺教练说Aldridge离开只是因为他要去厕所。 "He's fine," Popovich said. "He went in to take a leak." Considering the break lasted most of the second half, Popovich was again pressed to explain Aldridge's absence. "Let me say it differently," Popovich said. "He went into the locker room and used the latrine." Popovich说:"他没甚麽问题，他只是去洗手间而已。"由於Aldridge在下半场几乎没有再 出现，媒体的询问让Popovich再次说明:"让我换句话说，他是去更衣室和去上厕所。" Leonard scored 26 and Parker added 20 for the Spurs, who tied an NBA record by going 40-1 at home after being down by 10 points at halftime. 今日Leonard得了26分而Parker得了20分，帮助球队从半场10分的落後逆转获胜，也让 马刺以40胜1败的主场战绩追平联盟纪录。 "Just try to stay in rhythm obviously, because we're not going to play until Saturday or Sunday," Parker said. "The second half was a lot better." The Spurs have dropped three straight regular-season finales. Parker说:"试着保持比赛的节奏，因为一直到星期六或日我们都不会有比赛，今天下半场 状况有了改善。"马刺连续三个球季的最後一场都输了球。 -- Let's Go Mavs! --
