标题: [外电] New Jersey Nets showing sudden strength on defense 时间: Mon Dec 8 12:46:00 2008 by Dave D'Alessandro/The Star-Ledger Sunday December 07, 2008, 7:53 PM The Nets' Yi Jianlian blocks a shot by the 76ers' Andre Miller Saturday night.Through the first month of the season, the Nets have fashioned an identity based almost entirely on team speed, offensive energy, youthful exuberance, fourth-quarter mental toughness, resilience in the face of injury, and the incandescent play of point guard Devin Harris. 在星期六对上七六人的比赛中，易赏了 A.Miller 一个大锅。 从本季开始，篮网就一直在进攻速度、战术、刚加入的新血、 伤兵问题，及第四节崩盘症上做调整。当然，这包含了新加入 的新星控卫 - Devin Harris。 Defense? Eh ... not so much. 至於防守呢....似乎囧了点。 But the past two games have served a useful purpose, and that is to confuse the heck out of the competition. 不过，在近两场比赛里，防守似乎有了些起色。 Entering the weekend, the Nets had yielded an average of 105 points per game in their first 17 games. In the past two games, however, they limited Minnesota and Philadelphia to 84 apiece, forcing them to shoot a combined 39.3 percent from the field and 24.2 percent from 3-point range. 到这个周末为止，篮网在近17场比赛中，平均得了105分。 更重要的是，在近两场对上灰狼跟七六人比赛，篮网只对手 得了84分，并且将他们的两分及三分命中率压低到39.3%及24.2。 Which raises the question: What's going on here? 这让很多人产生了疑问 "篮网怎麽了!? " (当然是变强啦...~(￣▽￣)~(＿△＿)~(￣▽￣)~(＿△＿)~(￣▽￣)~(＿△＿)~) "That's been our priority, to get better on defense -- individually and as a team," said backup center Stromile Swift, whose return from a back injury has helped the cause. "I think the last two games we've been pretty decent -- I wouldn't say great, but decent. "防守一直是我们希望能做到的事"，Swift 说。 刚从背伤回到球场的 Swift ，明显的在防守端上帮助了球队不少。 "我想，上两场比赛我们打的不错。不能说很好拉...不过还不错"，Swift 又说。 "I think we've gained a lot of confidence by defending this way the last two games. Winning helps. It builds confidence. And when you're confident, you make shots, and it snowballs." "我们靠着防守赢得了上两场比赛的胜利，而胜利建立了我们的信心， 最後信心又能让你更准，这一切就像雪球一样，越滚越大"，Swift 说。 He was being modest: The Nets gave their best defensive performance of the season at Philly -- with four rock-solid quarters, not just one or two -- and they probably could have held the Sixers to fewer than 80 points had they not gift-wrapped some extra points with turnovers that led to breakaways. Swift 其实太谦虚了，因为上两场比赛，篮网根本把对手锁爆了。 And almost all of their success Saturday night had to do with coach Lawrence Frank throwing a fist in the air -- signaling his team to play zone. 而这些大多要归功於发秃，因为他在比赛中下了重要的战术指令 - 区域联防 In the first half alone, the Nets zoned for roughly 21 possessions, and got 16 stops out of it. In the second half, using primarily zone again, they held the Sixers to 8-for-27 shooting (forcing six turnovers) over the last 17 minutes. 在对七六人的比赛中，上半场守的虽然还好，只让对手失手16球， 但是在下半场的倒数17钟内，篮网的区域联防造成对手许多失误， 更让他们投 28 只中 7。 "Basically it's hit or miss, depending on the opponent we're going to play," Nets forward Bobby Simmons said of zone efficiency. "(The Sixers) don't have a lot of outstanding shooters, so we want that." "基本上，我们会看对手，再决定防守战术，而像76人这样没有很多射手的球队， 我们就会选择区防"，Simmons说。 Still, this is not the Nets team that others had come to know. Winning with defense isn't exactly in their DNA. 当然，大家认识的篮网，并不是靠防守取胜的。 "We can do a good enough job to win games," Harris said. "Obviously, it's not going to be the (NBA's) best. We're not going to be a lock-down type of team. But we can make some strides in certain areas." "其实我可以躺在女郎中更久..(误)， 不是啦，其实我们可以打的更好，当然，更好的定义不见得是一定要把对方守爆， 不过我们还是可以偶尔来一下阴的...XD " ，小哈说。 "The difference is that we trust each other more now," Vince Carter said. "Everything else comes from that; we trust that if we can make a guy drive, fine -- if he beats us, he beats us, but someone's going to be there. It's a slow process. We were really bad early, but I think we're getting there. "我们最大的不同在於 - 我们相信彼此。 我们尽最大的力量去防守，就算被切成功了，也不能让他向切豆腐一样容易! 开季的时候，我们打的不好，不过...嘿嘿..."，阿卡说。 "So the thing we were missing was communication -- like not calling out screens. I was excited when I got to play in the back of the zone, because I have a big mouth. The guy back there can talk and dictate and yell at guys, and after a while it's a habit -- everyone takes it upon himself to do it." "所以，我们之前其实只是缺乏沟通而已， 所谓的沟通，就像我常在场上讲话，叫队友帮忙防守、注意..等。 而最近...在场上讲话，变成大家的习惯了XD"，阿卡说。 Moral of the story? 这故事告诉我们什麽呢!? "It's really the best way you can play on the road: You have to rely on defense," Carter said. "Everyone pulling together." "防守的确是胜利的关键，尤其当你在打客场的时候，因为防守让我们更团结"，阿卡说。 As of this morning, the Nets have pulled together a 7-3 road record, which is the fourth-best in the NBA by percentage. 团结的篮网，目前是 NBA 第四客场胜率最高的球队，成绩是 7-3 。 And as of this morning, they are tied for fifth place in an improved Eastern Conference. 这也让篮网在东区爬到了第五顺位。 Yes, fifth place -- one game out of fourth, where Atlanta resides. 是的!!你没听错，第五顺位，而且只要在赢一场就可以干掉老鹰了。 "We're not surprised," Harris said. "We know what we're capable of doing. It's just going to be a thing all year long: We have to keep proving ourselves. We'll obviously take some steps back, and we want to be consistent as possible, keep getting better as the season goes on." "其实我们并不意外阿...，因为我们本来就不错，而且接着会更强。"小哈说。 "That 11-8 sounds right," Carter said with a nod. "I'm really not that surprised -- I thought we'd be pretty good. I didn't think we'd be 15-1, but 11-8 sounds good." "11胜8负，听起来ok啦...，我知道我们球队不错， 虽然还到可以15胜1败，不过...，11-8其实很ok了"，阿卡说。 How high is up? 那你觉得你们接着会多强呢? Now Carter was smiling. "Stay tuned," he said. "Stay tuned." "我们还在调整中拉"，阿卡XD的说。 http://www.nj.com/nets/index.ssf/2008/12/new_jersey_nets_showing_sudden.html 第一次翻...有错请指教 (￣▽￣＃)﹏﹏ --
