Saturday, December 31, 2005 BY DAVE D'ALESSANDRO Through 48 minutes, 25 lead changes and 10 ties, the difference between the Nets and Atlanta last night proved to be one thing: The Nets have a superstar who can force double- and triple-teams and make plays in the last five minutes of a game, and the Hawks do not. 历经了48分钟的比赛，25次的互换领先，以及10次平手，我们可以从篮网跟老鹰两队 表现上的差异证明了一件事：篮网有一位真正的球星，他可以在比赛最後五分钟，即使 面对对手两人或三人包夹的时候，从容不迫的进球。而老鹰队没有。 That would be Vince Carter, of course. 当然，大家都知道那个人是Vince Carter。 And it wasn't merely his 37 points that enabled the Nets to escape embarrassment against the league's second-worst team, but his ability to make an entire defense flinch, twitch and overreact every time he put the ball on the floor in crunch time. 这不仅仅是Carter在这场比赛攻下37分，让篮网避免陷入被联盟战绩第二差的老鹰击败 的窘境，每当他在关键时刻拿到球，他还可以使对手的防守产生畏惧。 So Carter -- either directly or indirectly -- accounted for every Nets field goal when they went on an 18-7 surge over the final 5:51 last night to record a 99-91 victory over the very stubborn Hawks. 於是不管是直接或间接的，在比赛最後的5分51秒中，篮网的每一个FG都有Carter巨大的 贡献，一波18-7的攻势也让篮网击败了顽强的老鹰队。 The Nets' eighth straight triumph also marked the first time that three players scored 20 plus -- Jason Kidd had 21 points and nine assists, while Richard Jefferson had 21 and six -- but Carter's floor vision made heroes out of them all, notably Jacque Vaughn, who drilled three jumpers in the last 4:53 after Carter drew double- teams to help get the Nets over the top. 这一场胜利也是篮网的三叉戟第一次三人都得到了20分以上 -- 队长有21分9助攻， RJ也有21分6助攻 -- 但Carter的表现使得他们没有办法当这场比赛的英雄， Jacque Vaughn也差点成为这场比赛的英雄，他在比赛最後4分53秒中，靠着VC被包夹的 情形下让他有空档可以投进三次重要的跳投。 "The last six minutes of the game, we just try to out-execute the opponent," said Carter, who also had four assists. "I just try to be more aggressive, try to put pressure on the guy that's guarding me -- or the guys that are guarding me. "比赛的最後六分钟，我们试着要击垮对手" Carter说，他也有四次助攻，"我只是试着 更具有侵略性，试着把压力留给守我的人，不管是一个或是几个。" "They were kind of playing it back and forth. They trapped, sometimes they show hard, and sometimes it's one-on-one. So I was just trying to read it as we go and make the right play." "他们打的有点来来回回，(略，大家帮忙)，所以我只是试着解读并且做出正确的决定。" "It's nothing new," Lawrence Frank said. "We've seen this a lot from Vince. The key point was just the trust, and the fact the ball kept on moving, and Jacque stepped up and hit big shots. But it was a result of Vince attacking, forcing two to play one." "这没什麽好大惊小怪的" Lawrence Frank说 "Vince的表现我们已经看过很很多次了， 重点很简单，就是大家互相信任，球持续的传导，然後Jacque挺身而出在关键时刻投 进好几球。不过这也是因为Vince持续进攻的关系，逼使着他们要去包夹他。" With both teams playing small, Elizabeth native Al Harrington (26 points) hit his fifth 3-pointer of the game to give the Hawks an 84-81 lead with 5:52 left, but Carter wasn't letting the game get away. 两队今天都是打小球战术，Al Harrington得到26分，比赛剩下5分52秒的时候，他的第 五颗三分球让老鹰取得84-81的领先，但Carter可不会这麽让比赛结束。 He made four straight plays -- hitting a force in the lane over Harrington, assisting on Vaughn's 19-footer, hitting a sensational change-of-hands drive over Josh Childress, and then drawing a double that led to an open jumper for Vaughn in the opposite corner -- to personally account for an 8-2 Nets run. That resulted in an 89-86 lead at the 3:27 mark. 他连续策动了四次进攻 -- 先是在Harrington面前投进一球，然後传球给Vaughn完成一个 助攻，再来是一球精彩的换手上篮过了Josh Childress，最後是吸引了包夹後让Vaughn 有一个空档投球 -- 一波8-2的攻势。也使得篮网取得了89-86的领先。 "Pretty much before the play, I'm looking to see if my man is going to go help -- which he always does, and then I start smiling," said Vaughn, who hit four of five shots. "A lot of times, Vince and I actually have a little eye contact. It just feels good that he had the trust to throw me the ball, and I came through to knock 'em down." "在这波攻势之前，我试着寻找可以帮忙球队的机会 -- 就像他平常做的一样，然後我 笑了" Vaughn说，他今天投五中四。"有很多时候，Vince跟我都会有眼神的交会，很高 兴他这麽信任我传球给我让我出手，而我击倒他们了。" That was followed by three straight stops, and the Nets blew a chance to extend the lead when Jefferson missed two foul shots with 2:35 left. But one play later, after a Cliff Robinson steal, Carter drove the lane, the defense collapsed, and he hit Jefferson on time and on target for an open 3-pointer, making it a 92-86 gap with 1:52 to go. 这波攻势之後篮网连续失手三次，RJ连续两罚失手更丧失了可以把领先拉大的机会， 但是大叔的抄截後，Carter及时把球传给RJ，一个空档的三分球使得比数拉开到92-86， 比赛剩下1分52秒。(详情请看J大的重播，在此不多加叙述.XD) "That's just confidence -- Vince having the confidence in me," Jefferson said. "You know, he had a game going. But he still kicked it to the open man and I knocked it down." "这就是信心 -- Vince对我有信心" RJ说 "他把球传给有空档的人而我投进了。" The Hawks came as close as 94-91 after a three-point play by Tyronn Lue (18 points), but the Nets followed the script, as Carter drove and kicked it to Kidd, who fed an open Vaughn, who drilled another open jumper from the corner to ice it with 43 seconds to play. 靠着Tyronn Lue的三分球老鹰把比数追到94-91，但是Carter--Kidd--Vaughn的传球 及投篮让比赛大势底定。 "Atlanta played extremely hard," said Kidd, who locked up Joe Johnson over the last 10 minutes (1-for-4, three turnovers). "The big thing is we executed down the stretch and we got some stops when we had to, and again, Vince was great tonight. He found the open guy, found the basket, he did a lot for us at both ends of the court. That was a big win for us, we ended the year right and now we have to move on." "老鹰打的非常好，"Kidd说，他在第四节的大锁锁住了Joe Johnson(投4中1，三失误)， "重要的是我们打的很好，Vince今天还是一样棒，他找到有空档的人，他找到篮框， 他在攻守都有很大的贡献，这是重要的一胜，尤其在一年结束的时候，而新的一年 我们必须要再往前走。" Notes: Nenad Krstic needed X-rays on his left wrist after a second-quarter fall, but he said it was fine. ... The Nets, 17-12 with a two-game lead in the Atlantic, don't play again until Friday. "Give me a two-week break, I'm happy," Jefferson said. "Any break is good." Notes:Krstic去照X光了，不过他说情况还OK，篮网的下一场比赛要到下星期五了.. RJ说有这麽久的休息是很好的。 ---- 新年连胜文~ 祝大家新年快乐~ 也希望篮网战绩可以越来越好~ 翻译有不完全的一样希望网友们补上罗~ --
