PACERS 96, HEAT 94 OT Cold start, sizzling finish Pacers erase 20-point deficit to knock off Heat 开低走高，红火收尾。 溜马克服２０分之多的落後击败热火。 By Mike Wells 记者 Mike Wells The Indiana Pacers' leading scorer, Jermaine O'Neal, couldn't put the ball in the basket no matter how hard he tried. Their second scoring option, Danny Granger, who scored a career high the previous week, was walking down court shaking his head after missed shots. 不论首席得分点 Jermaine O'Neal 多努力，他就是没办法把小皮球放进篮框里。而 前一周刚刚豪取个人生涯新高分的第二火力来源 Danny Granger 也只能在数球不进 後低着头走下球场。 The Miami Heat, meanwhile, made their open shots to build a 20-point third-quarter lead. 同一时间，热火队在第三节初不断进球，把领先拉大到２０分。 The Pacers looked like they were on their way to being blown out of Conseco Fieldhouse, when their 38-year-old energizer, Darrell Armstrong, and Granger brought life back into the team. 正当溜马横看竖看都像是要在主场 Conseco Fieldhouse 给狠狠修理的 MOMENT， ３８岁老将 Darrell Armstrong及 Granger 带着球队起死回生。 Granger and Armstrong sparked a rally early in the fourth quarter as the Pacers overcame their largest deficit in a victory this season to beat the Heat 96-94 in overtime Wednesday night. Granger 与 Armstrong 在第四节初带起了反攻的气势，让溜马克服了本季最大 落後，从而在延长赛中力克热火队胜出。 "These guys didn't give up; they just kept playing," Armstrong said. "No matter how things are going, at some point, things can turn quickly. For us, it turned so quick because we were able to get stops." Armstrong 说：「大家就是不愿意放弃，每个人都咬牙撑下来。不论情况如何，某 些时候，风云变色的速度会出乎意料。对我们来说，情况能逆转是因为我们打断了 对方的进攻气焰。」 The win, the ninth straight over the Heat in the regular season at the Fieldhouse for the Pacers, didn't come without one last shot from the Heat. 这场胜利，成为溜马在正规赛季，於主场击败热火队的连续第九胜。但是，热火 可没有束手就擒。 After Dwyane Wade blocked Marquis Daniels' jump shot with 12.9 seconds remaining, the Heat called a timeout to advance the ball to the frontcourt. 当最後１２.９秒 Dwyane 赏了 Marquis Daniel 一个火锅後，热火队喊出暂停， 组织好队形运球过了半场。 Most people in the building thought the ball would end up in Wade's hands. Instead Jason Kapono came off a screen, jumped to attempt a 3-pointer, then passed the ball Gary Payton. Payton immediately gave the ball back to Kapono, whose 3-pointer went halfway down before popping back out. Kapono went down court looking toward the Heat bench, telling his teammates the shot looked good. 多数球场上的人都认为球一定会在 Wade 的手中做处理。然而， Jaason Kapono 自 队友掩护後跑出来，起跳做势要投三分球，却再次把球传给 Gary Payton。Payton 很快的又把球回传给 Kapono ，他终於投出了这球，还是颗三分球。只是，球儿在空 中画着弧线，却没进篮。Kanopo 转头走向休息区，看向热火教练，告诉自己的队友 这球是有希望的。 "As soon as it left my hand, I thought it was down," said Kapono, who made his first four 3-point attempts. "It didn't stay in, though." Kanopo说：「球一离手，我就觉得会进。但事实不是如此。」这球是他今晚唯一 一次失手，三分球，他投五中四。 The Pacers have won two straight after dropping their previous four. 在四连败後，溜马已经打出二连胜。 "We dodged a couple of bullets," Pacers coach Rick Carlisle said. "Kapono had one that was in and out at the end. When you play as hard as the guys played, especially tonight in the second half, you tend to get some breaks I guess." 溜马教练 Rick Carlisle 说：「我们躲过了好几球，Kanopo 那球弹了出来。当 你的球队像我们今晚这样的拼，特别是下半场那种拼法，幸运之神似乎会眷顾你。」 While Wade scored a game-high 32 points, O'Neal had difficulties scoring. O'Neal had his worst shooting game of the season, going 4-of-20 from the field. Wade 攻下两队最高的３２分， O'neal 却无法发挥。今晚，是他本季最糟的一次。 投２０中４。 "I was trying to do too much of what I rarely do," said O'Neal, who had 13 rebounds and four blocked shots. "I kept attacking the crowded lane. I thought I was going to get a couple more calls if I drove the lane. All in all, those other guys stepped up big for us. They got us out of the hole and we were able to win the game." O'neal说：「我试着去做太多我不习惯做的事情。我不断往人满为患的禁区攻，打 算靠这样赚到几次犯规。不论如何，队上球员真的给了我们很大的帮忙，他们把 我们从黑洞中拉出来，让我们有机会赢球。」今晚，他拉下１３个篮板，４次阻攻。 The Heat, leading by seven at the half, opened the third quarter by scoring 15 of the first 18 points to take what looked like a commanding 19-point lead, 56-37. They eventually led by 20 points before the Pacers managed to make it a 13-point deficit at the end of the quarter. 中场休息时领先７分的热火队在第三节初抢进了两队前面１８分中的１５分，把 局面带到了似乎没什麽会改变的１９分领先，也就是５６－３７。即使热火队一 度把领先拉大到２０分，溜马在第三节结束时还是把差距缩小到１３分。 Momentum started swinging the Pacers' way at the start of the fourth quarter when Armstrong and Granger, who missed his first five shots, made three straight 3-pointers to make it a four-point deficit. 整个局面在第四节初开始转变，那时，Armstrong 与前面五次出手通通不进的 Ganger开始开火，连续进了三颗三分球，差距瞬间缩小到４分。 Granger made up for his slow start by going 5-of-8 from the field in the fourth quarter and overtime to finish with 16 points. Granger 在第四节的表现，弥补了之前的低潮，当节他投８中５，最终以１６分 的成绩收尾。 "Coach told us in the huddle there's no six- or eight-point plays," Granger said. "Score, get a stop. Score, get a stop. We kept chipping away, then we went on that run and we were back in the game. It's a big win for us. Now we have a chance to put some wins together, especially with our schedule having us at home." Granger说：「教练告诉我们，没人一球得六分、八分。进球，防守，进球，防守 我们就是这样缩小差距，接着，我们打出一波小高潮，得以重新有机会争取胜利。 这场胜利很重要。我们现在有机会拿下更多胜利，因为接下来有不少在主场的比赛。」 Call Star reporter Mike Wells at (317) 444-6053s. Copyright 2006 IndyStar.com.
