March 9, 2006 Rockets 103, Pacers 99 Pacers let big lead disappear in loss Indiana blows 17-point 3rd-quarter advantage 溜马让领先自手中溜走，让１７分的领先在第四节消耗殆尽。 By Mike Wells [email protected] HOUSTON -- Center David Harrison sat inside the locker room after the Indiana Pacers let another winnable game get away from them on Wednesday against the Houston Rockets. David Harrison 坐在休息室内。他与溜马队又一次输掉一场原本可以胜出的 比赛，今晚，对手是火箭队。 Harrison talked about the games against Milwaukee, Toronto and Charlotte. And you can't forget, Atlanta has beaten the Pacers three times this season. Harrison 谈起对公鹿、暴龙、山猫的比赛。别忘记，老鹰队本季也击败溜马队过 ，总共三次。 At some point in the next month when they're scratching and clawing trying to secure a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference, the Pacers will look back and kick themselves for not winning those games. 当溜马队球员们下个月咬紧牙关为了进入季後赛苦苦拼战时，他们会想要赏自己 两个巴掌，恨自己之前该赢的球赛为什麽没有赢。 "I really hope we're not doing that," Harrison said after the Pacers 103-99 loss to Rockets. "We have to make those games up somehow. We are literally a bad losing streak from being out the playoffs." Harrison 在球队以９９－１０３输球後说：「我真的希望我们不会那样（後悔）。 我们必须想办法回神。我们正一路输球，输到要掉出季後赛顺位了。」 Fortunately for the Pacers, Washington and Philadelphia, the two teams closest to them in East, also dropped games Wednesday, leaving them with a game lead for the fifth spot in the conference. 还好，有个好消息。两支在东区战绩最接近溜马的球队，巫师及七六人，周三 都输球，让溜马得以在战绩上继续领先，守住第五名。 The Pacers boarded the bus after their second straight defeat wondering how a 17-point lead with four minutes left in the third quarter turned into their third one-possession game in the past week. 溜马队球员在输球後搭上巴士，想不通为何第三节剩四分钟时的１７分领先怎麽 会以输球做结束。这个礼拜，溜马已经输掉三场一分之差的球赛。 After calling Stephen Jackson's number in the previous two one-possession games, Pacers coach Rick Carlisle put the ball in Anthony Johnson's hands Wednesday. 在连续两场球都把球放在 Stephen Jackson 手中做最後一击後， Rick Carlisle 今晚把球交在 Anthony Johnson 手中。 Down 101-99 with 12.1 seconds left, Johnson drove on Rockets points guard Rafer Alston and shot a turnaround 12-foot jumper. The shot was nowhere near the rim. 剩下１２.１秒，９９－１０１落後的溜马队由 Johnson 运球攻向火箭控卫 Rafer Alston 转身出手跳投，是个连篮框都没勾着的面包球。 "I took it upon myself to shoot the turnaround jumper, but I overshot it," Johnson said. "We have to find an answer for taking shots late in the game. Johnson 说：「我告诉自己这球该转身跳投，但我太用力了。我们必须想想在比 赛末段时怎麽进球。」 We've all taken our cracks at it and nobody has been able to step up and make shots. We just have to buckle down and try to find something that works in the clutch and get us good looks and get a few buckets when we need them." 他继续说：「我们总是在赌，没人真的能够挺身而出，投进关键的那球。我们必须 埋头苦练，练出能在关键时刻发挥效用的招式，能有胜算的招式。」 The Pacers got their biggest lead, 86-69, on a Harrison three-point play with four minutes left in the third quarter. 第三节溜马靠着 Harrison 的一次三分打将比分拉到８６－６９的最大差距，那时 第三节还有四分钟。 But rather than put the Rockets away, the Pacers forgot how to put the ball in the basket. 奇怪的是，溜马没有继续进球让火箭无力回天，反而开始失神忘记怎麽进球。 The Rockets kept chipping away and eventually got the lead, 94-93, on a Stromile Swift dunk with 3:53 left in the game. 火箭队不断进球，终於在比赛剩下３分５３秒时靠着 Stromile Swift 的灌篮 取得９４－９３的领先。 The two teams would then exchange the lead six times. 接下来，双方互换领先六次。 The Rockets gave the Pacers every opportunity to get a cushion when they turned the ball over three straight times. The Pacers only basket came when Stephen Jackson found Peja Stojakovic underneath for a lay-up on an inbounds pass to make it 99-98 with 58.2 seconds remaining. 火箭队很好心的连续失误三次，要让溜马队赢球。但是，溜马队只有在 Stephen Jackson 找到 Peja Stojakovic 时由界外发球进了一球。时间是５８.２秒，比 数是９９－９８。 Jeff Foster had a chance to make it a three-point game the next time down, but his missed two put backs. Alston grabbed Foster's second miss and fed Keith Bogans up the court for lay-up to give the Rockets the lead for good. Foster went 0-for-7 from the field. Jeff Foster 本来可以在下一波攻势中将领先扩大到三分，但是他试了两次都 没能把球放进篮框。Alston 抓下那颗篮板球，传给另一边的 Keith Bogans， 火箭队得以超前。Foster 今晚投７中０。 The Pacers scored just 11 points and shot 16 percent (4 of 25) from the field in the fourth quarter. 整个第四节，溜马只攻下１１分，投２５中４（１６％）。 Stojakovic led the Pacers with 29 points. Jackson added 23 points. Rockets center Yao Ming continued his dominant play of late by finishing with 38 points, 10 rebounds and five blocked shots. Tracy McGrady had 15 points for Houston before leaving early in the third quarter with a sore back. Stojakovic 以２９分居全队之首， Jackson 以２３分居次。火箭队中锋姚明 维持他近来的好状况，主宰了禁区攻下３８分、１０篮板５阻攻。Tracy McGrady 在第三节初因背痛离场前也贡献了１５分。 "I thought we got some pretty good looks at the end," Pacers coach Rick Carlisle said. "It's disappointing to work that hard to get the lead and lose it. It's tough." 溜马教练 Rick Carlisle 说：「我想我们在末段有几次不错的表现。那麽认真 却输球总是很难受。」 Call Star reporter Mike Wells at (317) 444-6053. 您可以透过３１７－４４４－６０５３的专线号码联络上 Mike Wells . Copyright 2006 IndyStar.com.
