DENVER, April 13 (AP) -- J.R. Smith made so many boneheaded plays in last year's postseason that he got a benching and a public scolding from his coach. 由於老二在季前干了许多脑残的事，他在季中坐了许久的板凳，甚至遭到Karl的公开批评 。 After working his way out of George Karl's doghouse this season, the new and improved Smith has led the Denver Nuggets to the cusp of a return trip to the NBA playoffs. 从Karl那边学乖以後，全新的老二重新出现在我们眼前，并协助金块回到季後赛的大门。 The super sub's 23-point performance sparked Denver to a 111-94 rout of the Houston Rockets on Sunday night that both clarified and cluttered the wild Western Conference playoff race. 疯狂的老二从板凳砍了23分，终场金块以111-94敲昏火箭，这场比赛同时也让西区老八的 竞赛有了结果。 "That's all he's got to do is come into the game and the energy is there,'' said Allen Iverson, who scored 33 points. "It hypes us up. You look at the things he does on the floor, it excites us as teammates. Just see the way he can shoot the ball, the way he can dribble the ball, the way he can jump, he has the whole package. “他就是这样，他为我们带来了激情与活力。”当晚取了33分的AI说道”看着老二在球场 上所做的，这激起我们的热情！看着老二如何乱喷，看着他如何运球(不是很抖吗..？)看 他跳的有多高，他拥有蓝球场上所需的所有东西。” "There's nothing on the court he can't do.'' 球场上没有老二做不到的事！！！！！！！ It was the 13th time Smith has come off the bench to score 20 or more points, most in the NBA among players who haven't started a single game. 这是老二第13次从板凳砍了20分，他是所有从板凳出发拿的分数又最多的球员。 "He's been a big spark for us, bringing that energy and excitement we were looking for,'' Carmelo Anthony said. "He's come around for us. It's just great to see him out there playing the way he's playing and knowing he's a big part of our success.'' “他为我们产生了火花，他带来了我们所需要的活力与激情”Melo说道”能看到他如此的 打球令我们相当开心，同时他也是我们赢得胜利不可或缺的因子。” Now all the Nuggets have to do to reach the playoffs for the fifth straight time is beat lowly Memphis on Wednesday night at home. 我们现在只要在礼拜三晚上在主场打败灰熊的话，季後赛就是稳进的了！ Denver (49-32) moved a half-game ahead of Golden State for the eighth and final playoff spot. The Nuggets might even be able to catch Dallas for the seventh seed if the Mavericks lose at home to New Orleans on Wednesday night. 我们目前正领先贼子们半场胜差，甚至有可能跟小牛角逐西区老七的位置，线在就期待黄 蜂在小牛的主场肆虐吧！ As for the Rockets (54-26), they can still secure the top seed in the West, but they're going to need plenty of help to do it. 火箭的战绩是54-26，他们仍然可以爬到西区霸王的位置，但他们需要一些条件。 First off, they need to win their last two games, at Utah on Monday night and at home against the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday night. They also need the two teams ahead of them to lose Tuesday night: the conference-leading Los Angeles Lakers host Sacramento and New Orleans hosts the Clippers. 首先，他们要赢得剩下的两场比赛，一场是礼拜一晚上宅爵的地狱主场，另一场则是礼拜 三晚上在主场迎战来访的快艇。此外，不光是要自己努力，还要诅咒其他两队都输掉礼拜 二的比赛。一场是在主场的湖人迎战来访的国王，另一场则是黄蜂在主场迎战快艇。 McGrady was flabbergasted that the Rockets played so poorly with so much to play for on this night. TMAC为他们打了这场混乱的比赛感到失望。 "That team needed a win badly and we played like it really didn't matter to us,'' McGrady said. "And at this point in the season, although we clinched, we still have to bring it every night.'' “金块或许真的很需要这场胜利，但我们打的也太像原本就要送他们这场一样了吧！？” TMAC狂啸"在这个时候，我们虽然已经取得季後赛资格，我们仍然应该全力应付每一场 比赛"(感谢willix大) The Rockets fell 1 1/2 games behind the Lakers atop the crazy conference, where Golden State could become the first team in NBA history to win 50 games and miss the playoffs. 火箭目前正落後湖人1.5场胜差，另外贼子们有可能打破纪录，NBA史上第一之50胜却没办 法进季後赛的队伍。 "I'm not so concerned about the No. 1 spot,'' McGrady said. "I'm more concerned about how we're playing right now.'' “我并不十分在意我们是否为西区老大”TMAC平静的说道”我比较关心的事我们如何打好 比赛！” Bouncing in and out of the eighth and final playoff spot for a month, no team has had more of a roller-coaster ride than the Nuggets, who won a huge game at Golden State only to lose at Utah on Saturday night before bouncing back against the Rockets. 这一个月来我们在西区老八和提早回家睡觉的窘况下不停打滚，相信不会再有比我们更不 稳的球队了。我们赢了在贼窟的重大战役，紧接着虽然不敌宅爵的地狱主场，但是我们马 上也展现我们的宅度并不输给宅爵，隔天马上在闪闪发光的主场把火箭给击落！ "It's impossible to feel good because for three weeks we've been feeling stressed,'' Karl said. "You never play three playoff teams in three games in four nights in three different cities that had huge, huge ramifications. We survived it; we won two out of three, but we're still not out of the woods.'' “这实在很难令人感到好心情，在三礼拜前，我们遭受着极大的压力(按：如果你每场都 可以季末一样吃错药喊对暂停时机我们就不会有这麽大的压力啦(／‵Д′)／~ ╧╧)” Karl说道”你很难想像，我们在四天内要跟三场季後赛队伍比赛，而且是在三个不同的主 场，不过，我们撑下来了，我们赢了三场中的两场。” To have a shot at keeping the Nuggets out of the postseason party, the Warriors need to win at Phoenix on Monday night and beat Seattle on Wednesday. 要把金块赶出季後赛的话，贼子们必须打翻太阳的主场和击败超音速。 But even that won't matter if the Nuggets handle their business against the lottery-bound Grizzlies, who will be playing the second game of a back-to-back against a Denver team that will have had two days off. 如果他们真的连赢两场，那也要看我们脸色才行，我们的主场也不是好惹的，何况我们还 是打一队极需乐透签的灰熊，一个愿打，一个愿挨，看来我们季後赛的门票时拿定了！ Iverson said the enigmatic Nuggets certainly won't blow it now that they finally have their postseason destiny in their own hands. AI说我们并没有把自己搞砸，最终我们还是靠着自己的力量来达到目标！ "We understand what's at stake, and we don't underestimate them because we know they have talented guys on their team,'' Iverson said. “我们知道这其中的利益关系，我们也不会对他们轻敌，他们队上拥有极有才华的球员， 一个不小心我们也是会被他们打趴的。” This was a surprisingly easy win for the Nuggets, who raced to 43 fastbreak points as the Rockets shot 34 percent. Denver pulled away with a 10-0 first-half run sparked by consecutive 3-pointers from Smith. 其实这场比赛对我们来说是相当轻松的，我们在对火箭中光快攻就拿下了43分，而且火箭 的投篮命中率也仅仅只有34%。在老二不停地乱喷三分下，我们在上半场就打出了一波 10-0的攻势。 Luther Head lead Houston with 19 points and McGrady scored 16. Marcus Camby grabbed 14 rebounds, all but one of them off the defensive glass, and blocked seven shots for Denver, which led 61-44 at halftime and never looked back. Head拿下火箭对中的最高分19分，TMAC拿下16分。Camby抓了14颗篮板，其中有一颗是进 攻篮板，而且还卖了七锅火锅给火箭队吃，上半场我们就已61-44大大领先火箭，而火箭 到终场前一直都无力反扑。 "We didn't have any energy at all,'' Houston forward Chuck Hayes said. "They were the team that played the night before, but we played like we had. Maybe it meant more to them and we paid for it.'' “我们今天打的很没活力”海爷失望的说道”他们昨晚在去宅爵家被惨电一场，结果看来 像是我们昨天打了背靠背一样。” 这是小弟第一次翻外电..有错请大家指教^^” --
