Ailing Piston Tayshaun Prince's goal is to play versus Hawks on Wednesday http://0rz.tw/Jc3SS Auburn Hills -- Although, it looked bad at first sight, Pistons forward Tayshaun Prince's sprained right ankle could be ready for Wednesday night's game in Atlanta as the Pistons go bak to playing NBA-caliber competition. 虽然要让扭伤脚踝的小王子能够在星期三对老鹰的比赛中上场， 看起来是不太可能的事情 "I didn't do anything today, but I should be all right by the game," said Prince, who's officially listed as a game-time decision. 小王子说：「我今天还不能做任何事情，但那天我应该能够上场比赛」 Sprained ankles aren't new to Prince, but his right ankle could be more troublesome than the usual ones he's played through in his durable 11-year career. As a left-handed player, he pushes off, accelerates and jumps from his right side - which could slow him down if he does play. 扭伤脚踝对小王子来说并不是新鲜事，但这次扭伤应该比过去生涯所受过的伤还要严重。 对於一个左撇子球员，冲刺、起跳、加速等动作都是从右半边发动，右脚踝的伤势势必会 造成影响。 He sprained it in the third quarter of Saturday's game, being fouled by Wizards center Nene. 小王子在星期六对上巫师的比赛中受伤。 "It was a little bit more painful," Prince said. "Like my left one if I sprained it now it could be a bad sprain, but I've sprained it so many times I could bounce right back, but the right one hasn't been twisted." 「跟以往比起来，这次比较麻烦一点」小王子说，「如果是扭伤左脚踝，我可以用右脚来 动作，就跟以前几次扭伤左脚踝的状况一样。」 Prince said strength and conditioning guru Arnie Kander put some special tape on it, which stopped it from swelling - but it was so uncomfortable, it was hard for Prince to sleep. He took it off Monday morning and did some electric stimulation. 小王子说防护员有先贴了一些特殊的贴布在脚踝上消肿。但这让小王子很不舒服，让他很 难入睡；於是在礼拜一的时候就把胶布拿掉了，并且改作了一些电疗。 If Prince can't go, Pistons coach Lawrence Frank hasn't revealed who would start in his place. 如果星期三小王子没办法上场，教练Lawrence Frank也尚未透露谁将会代替他的先发位置 。 "When a guy is injured, it's always next man up," Frank said. "You do everything to rehab him but that's why you have the number of guys you have on the team. You just read the situation." 「有人受伤时，总是会有人替代他」教练Frank说：「对於受伤的球员，你会尽一切可能 的办法去帮助他康复，但这也是为什麽需要许多替补球员在队上。」 He has a few options. He could reactivate veteran Corey Maggette, who's been inactive the past two games. Also, moving Rodney Stuckey back to the starting lineup and sliding starter Kyle Singler to his natural spot at small forward could also be in play, as well as starting Austin Daye or giving Jonas Jerebko a spot back in the rotation. 对於活塞教头，他有一些选择。他可以继续启用老将 Corey Maggette，就像前两场比赛 一样；或是把Stuckey重回调回先发的位置，并且让Kyle Singler回到熟悉的小前锋的位 置，以及让Austin Daye 先发，又或者把Jonas Jerebko 回到轮替中。这些都是可行的方 案。 Confidence Builders While nobody's throwing a parade after two straight wins over the Wizards, the Pistons took care of business in a workmanlike fashion. Frank believes it can only instill more confidence for down the road. 虽然没有人关注活塞的二连胜，但活塞在乎的是他们是否能够展现出更佳的方式来赢得比 赛，教练Frank相信只要能够注入更多信心就能够推动球队持续前进。 "Especially when you're a team like ours where we go through stretches where we just have a hard time sustaining our play, anytime you win it helps with your confidence," he said. "I read a great thing by (New York Giants coach) Tom Coughlin this morning where he said (though) a team's confidence you earn confidence. 「尤其是当你的球队刚经历过一段艰难的时间，任何一场胜利都能带给我们信心。」 Frank说「今天早上，我从纽约巨人队总教练Tom Coughlin那边听到一句话，他说「一个 团队的信心就是你能得到的信心」 "Your players earn it, you can't just talk about it or want it, so you earn it through your play, which hopefully can generate wins or generate quality play." 「你的球员得到它了，不是嘴巴说说或是心里想要就可以得到，必须要透过实际的行动表 现出来，信心可以带来胜利或是令人赞许的表现。」 Having longer breaks between games wouldn't hurt either. The Pistons have played a league-high 30 games, while the Wizards by comparison have played 25. 有比较长的休息时间也不是什麽坏事，活塞已经打了30场的比赛，而巫师只到目前为止只 打了25场。 "You realize how many more games we've played, but it all catches back up to you," Frank said. "When you have days off, it's the balance between rest and recovery and work." 「你知道我们已经多打了好几场的比赛，但每一场比赛的收获是取决於我们自己。当你有 机会喘口气时，必须要平衡休息、回复体力跟重新回到岗位的时间。」 -- 少年不识愁滋味，爱上层楼，爱上层楼，为赋新词强说愁。 而今识尽愁滋味，欲说还休，欲说还休，却道天凉好个秋。 --
