But his unselfishness as a passer (six assists) more than made up for his inability to put the ball in the basket. 只有小王子在他该表现时漏气了，有好几次上篮失手。但他无私地扮演助攻角色(传出 六次助攻)，完全弥补了无法顺利将球摆进篮框对球队所造成的伤害。 The Pistons were unstoppable when running set plays. On three straight third-quarter possessions, Detroit ran Rip Hamilton off a baseline screen before having him pivot and run all the way back around a baseline screen on the other side of the court. 活塞在执行小组配合战术时无人能挡。在第三节中连续三次活塞持有球权时，他们用 底线单挡掩护RIP，让RIP掉头再利用另一个底线单挡跑向球场另一端。 No Nets defender was near Hamilton as he nailed three straight midrange jumpers . 在RIP连续三次中距离得手时，他身旁完全没有任何网队的防守者。 Other impressive play calls involved Prince curling around a mid-paint pick en route to a catch-and-layup, and a nifty give-and-go between McDyess and Hamilton that led to an easy jumper. 其他令人印象深刻的几个play还包括小王子在油漆区中央利用一个单挡闪过防守者後 接球上篮，还有一次袋鼠和RIP藉由漂亮的传接配合，轻松跳投得手。 When Flip Saunders allowed his charges to iso, post up, or freelance, a number of Pistons made impressive one-on-one plays, including impossible-to-defend fadeaways in the post by Rasheed Wallace, effective screen-rolls by Billups and McDyess, and aggressive attacks on the basket by Jason Maxiell. 当老桑授权放单边、背框单打或甚至自由开火时，活塞球员几次单打成功令人印象深 刻，包括溪蛙在禁区内几次根本无法防守的後仰跳投，枪蜥和袋鼠间几次有效的挡切配合 ，还有J-Max几次积极进攻篮框也都顺利得手。 Billups was strong and smart. On one possession, a screen left him matched up one-on-one with Sean Williams at the top of the key. Billups drove at him and then away from the basket along the baseline, before pivoting back to the hoop and netting an un-blockable reverse layup. 枪蜥既强壮又聪明。在一次握有球权时，一次掩护在圈顶让他单独面对Sean Williams 的防守。枪蜥切向他之後又沿着底线远离篮框，最後才掉头出手，放进一球根本无法防守 的反手上篮。 Billups also showed great timing when going up for layups in traffic, knowing when and how to avoid blocked shots. 枪蜥也展现了在兵荒马乱之际掌握上篮得分时机的本领，他知道在什麽时候以及采用 什麽方式出手可以避免被封盖。 The Piston reserves went Saran Wrap in the fourth quarter, blanketing the court and making simple basketball plays like wing passes and screen-rolls ineffective. Jarvis Hayes, Lindsay Hunter, Jason Maxiell, and Rodney Stuckey probably tipped more passes in the fourth quarter than the Detroit Lions secondary has all season. 活塞的替补球员在第四节展现了如保鲜膜般密不透风的防守功夫，扑天盖地，让一些 简单的篮球技巧，例如锋翼传球和挡切配合全都失效了。Jarvis Hayes、猎人、J-Max和 Rodney Stuckey在第四节抄截的总数可能比底特律狮子第二防线整季所截断的球还多。 That nonstop disruption and defensive energy will be a nightmare for opposing second lines all year, and was one of the most impressive aspects about the team. 那种不间断的骚扰和防守能量对於对手的二线球员会是一整年的梦魇，同时也是活塞 最让人印象深刻的强项之一。 The Pistons nearly had as many assists (27) as the Nets had made baskets (30), and the Pistons' execution was just about flawless. 活塞传出的助攻(27次)几乎和网队投进的FG一样多(30个)，而且活塞的表现几乎是无 懈可击。 Wallace’s rotations were perfect, and while his basket defense only yielded two blocked shots, his presence altered countless others. Also, his desire to show on the nether side of screens thwarted many New Jersey screen-rolls. 溪蛙的轮转防守做得实在太出色了，尽管他只送出两记麻辣锅，不过其他还有许多无 形的贡献。另外，他在对手掩护两面的积极防守成功挡下好几次纽泽西的挡切配合。 Most shocking of all was the fact that on a questionable foul call against Wallace in the first quarter, he raised his hand and accepted responsibility. 不过其中最令人震惊的是当溪蛙在第一节被吹了一个不确定的犯规时，他竟然举起手 ，欣然接受裁判的判决。 Rasheed not going after the throats of the three blind mice? Say it ain't so! 溪蛙没追过去掐那三只瞎眼老鼠的咽喉？这不是拉溪蛙这不是拉溪蛙这不是拉溪蛙！ And let's not forget the most important factor making the Pistons a lock for the Conference Finals: 而且我们别忘了活塞会是分区冠军赛当然成员的最重要因素： They play in the Eastern Conference. 他们身处东区联盟。 Why Getting to the NBA Finals Isn’t a Lock 为什麽活塞不一定能顺利晋级总冠军赛。 When Flip Saunders stopped calling plays, the team reverted back to simple isolation, post-up basketball. 当老桑停止喊战术，球队就会回归最基本的篮球打法，放单边和背框单打。 Despite starting out 6-6 from the field, the Pistons were only shooting 13-34 from the field at one point in the second quarter. 尽管一开赛活塞六次出手全数命中，活塞的命中率在第二节时一度低落到只有出手34 次命中13球。 Simple-minded offense has doomed the Pistons the last two postseasons, and will doom them again this year if Saunders doesn’t call more set plays. 过於单调的进攻方式在过去两次季後赛已经让活塞吃足苦头，而且，如果老桑没有设 计更多样化的进攻战术，那活塞将会再一次因此吃鳖。 While the Piston offense was unselfish and crisp, there was precious little weakside action to force every opposing defender to play defense. In fact, the only time a ball was reversed from one side of the court to the other was when a potential entry pass to the post was successfully denied. 尽管活塞的进攻是无私且俐落的，不过只要有极少数的弱边动作足以让对手做好防守 。事实上，在球从球场一边回传到另一边时就有可能在传进禁区时被对手成功截断。 That’s another area of offensive simple-mindedness that will hurt Detroit come playoff time. 那是过於单调的进攻方式在季後赛将会对活塞造成伤害的另一种可能性。 Antonio McDyess missed several rotations early, contributing to New Jersey’s shooting over 50 percent from the floor in the first half. 比赛初段袋鼠几次轮转防守跟丢了，导致纽泽西在上半场命中率轻轻松松突破高标50% 。 The Pistons starters played with a surprisingly low amount of energy in the first half, perhaps brought about by New Jersey’s lethargic play. 活塞先发球员们在上半场的表现出人意表的精神涣散，或许跟纽泽西令人昏昏欲睡的 表现也脱不了干系。 But Detroit’s biggest area of concern is the Boston Celtics. 不过底特律争取'07-'08球季总冠军门票的最大绊脚石还是非波士顿超塞队莫属。 --
