Denver confident Game 5 won't end its season again 金块有信心，第五场比赛不会让赛季结束 By Chris Tomasson, Rocky Mountain News May 2, 2007 http://tinyurl.com/yp9nb7 SAN ANTONIO - By George, it can be done. 这是教练说的，而这可以实现。 That was the message Nuggets coach George Karl tried to get across Tuesday to his players even if one of his teams never has come back from a 3-1 deficit to win a playoff series. 这是金块教练George Karl想要对他的球员们说的，即使说他所带 领的球队没有一次从3-1的逆境中反败为胜过。 Karl hopes the speech can motivate the Nuggets, who trail 3-1 heading into tonight's Game 5 (6, Altitude, TNT) of a Western Conference playoff series against San Antonio at the AT&T Center. Karl希望这番话能够鼓励金块队，他们今天(美国时间)就要带着 3-1的情势与马刺在AT&T球场进行第五场比赛。 "Just trying to pick up the morale of the team," Nuggets center Marcus Camby said of Karl's words. "It could easily be down at this point, especially being down 3-1, and this season could potentially be over (tonight). But our spirits are definitely high." 「他试着努力重振球队的斗志。」金块中锋Marcus Camby说到Karl 的话，「这种时刻很容易就会让人沮丧。尤其被对手领先3-1时， 整个赛季或许就会在此划下句点。但是我们的士气非常高昂。」 Eight times a team has fought back from a 3-1 deficit to win. While a Karl team never has been involved, he told his players about two series he coached when it nearly happened. 球队从3-1的逆境中反败为胜的纪录已经有过八次。虽然说Karl的球队 从没这样过，他还是告诉他带过两季季後赛的球员这已经快要发生。 In 1996, Seattle led Utah 3-1 before losing two, then winning the series in seven. In 1997, the SuperSonics trailed 3-1 before winning twice and losing to Houston. 1996年，西雅图超音速在败给犹他爵士两场先取得3-1 领先，然後 输了两场，之後才在七战里获胜。1997年，超音速又领先了火箭取 得三比一优势，但还是输给了火箭。 Previous speeches haven't worked before Game 5. The Nuggets have lost 4-1 in the first round the past three seasons, including to San Antonio in 2005. 像这样以前的演讲没有在第五场比赛起作用过，金块在前三个赛季 都在第一轮以4-1输给了对手，包括2005年的马刺。 So what's different about the Nuggets this time? 那麽这次的金块有什麽不一样？ "We just feel confident," said Camby, who, along with Carmelo Anthony and Nene, has been around for all the 4-1 losses. "We feel that obviously we kicked two home games, but we haven't been playing particularly well here all season long and we feel we're a better road team. So, hopefully, that can come into play." 「我们这次就是很有信心，」Camby说。他和Carmelo Anthony、Nene 都一起经历了之前三次4-1的季後赛 。「我们都很想要好好的打主场 比赛，但是我们一整年在这打的都比较不好，我们想我们是一个比较 会打客场的球队。我们希望今晚会比较顺利。」 One difference is the Nuggets, who lost 96-89 on Monday at the Pepsi Center, have played closer games than in previous playoff series. They have been within three points in the final minute in each of their past three games. 其中一个不同是，金块队比起前几个赛季现在打的分数比较黏，在 今年前三场的比赛结束前一分钟时，他们的分数都咬在3分以内。 But at the end, the Spurs' experience has made the difference. 但是最後，马刺的经验使比赛起了变卦。 "Experience to some degree is something that a coach would love have with his team," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said. "So we do have some guys that have played together for a while and read each other pretty well. And one would hope that that's a benefit." 「就某种程度上而言，经验这东西是每个教练都希望自己球队有 的。」马刺的教练Gregg Popovich说。「所以我们会让那些有经 验的球员多打一会儿，我们也会仔细研究对手。大家都希望这会 是一个优势。」 It was Monday. With the Spurs leading 90-89, Robert Horry, who has six championship rings, drilled a decisive three-pointer with 30 seconds left. 星期一，马刺90-89领先，有着六枚冠军戒指的Robert Horry， 在只剩下三时秒的时候，射进了一个致胜的三分球。 The player called "Big Shot Bob" has turned the Nuggets into long shots. 这个有Big Shot Bob的球员，让金块的获胜机会变的渺茫。 "Everyone's aware of the situation," Eduardo Najera said. "We know it's one and done. We have to come out with everything we've got. Everything we've got in the tank. Our main guys, our leaders, they know what to do." 大家都知道这是怎样的一个情形，Eduardo Najera说。「我们知 道差一场比赛就可以决定我们的命运。我们必须使出浑身解数， 所有我们能付出的我们都要奉献。我们的主力球员，我们的领袖 们，他们知道该怎麽办。」 Anthony plans to do his part. Anthony准备好了。 "I can try to tell everybody it ain't over," the co-captain said. "Anything can happen." 这位队长之一的他说，「我想告诉大家这还没结束，所有事情都有 可能发生。」 Sounds as if Anthony and Karl have compared notes. It also will help if guard Allen Iverson can make some shots. 听起来Anthony和Karl都有一样的话，如果後卫Allen Iverson也可以说些话，可能会更好。 After shooting 11-of-22 for 31 points in Game 1, Iverson in the past three games has gone 25-of-70 (35.7 percent) and averaged 20.7 points. 在第一场比赛22中11，31分的表现之後，Iverson在最近的三场比赛 里70中25(命中率35.7)，平均得分20.7。 "If I knew how to adjust, then I would," said Iverson, who said he's just missing shots and is "searching" for his game. 「如果我知道该怎麽调整，我会尽力去做。」Iverson说，他说他失 投了一些球，还在努力想办法。 Tony Parker and Bruce Bowen have been searching for ways to stop Iverson. Tony Parker和Bruce Bowen都在想办法阻止Iverson。 "They're working very hard on it and focusing most of their energy on trying to guard him," Popovich said. "They're doing a decent job." 「他们都努力在想办法，把他们的精力集中在防守他。」Popvich说， 「他们做的很棒。」 Karl said Iverson, with seven assists, had his best passing game of the series Monday. Karl said he's "excited about what (Iverson's) going to do in Game 5." Karl说有着七次助攻的Iverson在礼拜一的比赛时，他传球状况是季 後赛里最好的。Karl说他「很期待他(AI)在第五场里的表现。」 But there are plenty of things the Nuggets have a hard time getting excited about. 但是在金块兴奋之际，他们的确有很多事情要头痛。 The Spurs continue to shut down the Nuggets' running game, and Denver's bench has been outscored 131-33 in the series. 马刺依旧对金块造成很大的威胁，板凳分数方面马刺的和金块的比 起来，有超过131对33这麽多。 Karl has used only three reserves in the series. The bench will be even thinner tonight, with Karl saying J.R. Smith won't play because of two ill-advised shots late in Monday's game. Karl在这个系列战里只有用了三个板凳，这个板凳阵容今晚会更 少，Karl说J.R. Smith有了在礼拜一的比赛时的错误判断，今天 不会出赛。 Nevertheless, the Nuggets still are talking tough. 不管如何，金块的大家还是鼓舞着士气。 Camby said the Nuggets have "always thought that we were the better team." Karl didn't back down in discussing his game preparation. Camby说金块「总觉得我们是比较好的那只球队。」Karl在讨论比 赛前的准备时，并没有退缩。 "(The Nuggets will) tinker a little bit (today) in shootaround, and go kick some (butt)," Karl said. 「我们今天进场练习时会多练一下，然後就痛宰对手。」Karl说。 Down 3-1, the Nuggets insist they're still kicking. 尽管三比一，Nuggets还是不放弃。 -- 中间的懒的上色了orz (系统怪怪的 都会自动吃掉字 太麻烦了) -- 大家加油~~~ 不过Karl决定要冰丁.尺...Orz -- "I don't care about nothing but winning," Najera said. "I'm going to sacrifice my body." --
