http://scores.espn.go.com/nba/preview?gameId=400553107 Trail Blazers-Rockets Preview HOUSTON (AP) -- The Houston Rockets remain confident they can rebound from a 3-1 deficit in their first-round playoff series with the Portland Trail Blazers. 休士顿火箭有信心从3-1首轮劣势下逆转波特兰拓荒者 But just in case they needed a reminder that such a comeback was possible, coach Kevin McHale had Mario Elie and Hakeem Olajuwon talk to his team as it prepares for Game 5 on Wednesday night. They helped the Rockets bounce back from the same deficit to beat the Phoenix Suns in seven games in the Western Conference semifinals in 1995 en route to an NBA title. 教练Kevin McHale让Mario Elie和Hakeem Olajuwon 与球队讨论如何准备星期三的第五战 他们曾帮助火箭在西区半决赛在相同劣势下卷土重来 最後在第七场打败凤凰城太阳队 当年拿下NBA总冠军 "You focus just on the one game (Wednesday) and shift the game back to Portland (and) there will be tremendous pressure on the Portland team," Olajuwon said. "You have no choice right now. You've got to focus." 「你必须集中注意力在星期三的比赛并且将系列赛带去波特兰， 到时候巨大的压力会在拓荒者那边」Olajuwon表示 「你们现在已经没有选择，只能专注在比赛上」 Despite their pep talk, the Rockets aren't sugar-coating their situation. 尽管有鼓舞士气的谈话，火箭并没有美化他们的处境 "It's desperation time," Chandler Parsons said. "We don't want our season to end and if we lose that's going to happen. All of our backs are against the wall and we've just got to be a resilient team." 「这是一个绝望的时期」Chandler Parsons表示 「我们不希望本赛季就此结束如果我们输了这场比赛， 目前已经退无可退我们必须更加自强」 Dwight Howard isn't ready for his first season in Houston to be over, either, and is working to ensure that he and his teammates don't let another one get away. Three of the four games in this series have been decided in overtime and two of Houston's three losses were by a total of five points. Dwight Howard还未准备好在休士顿的第一个赛季就此结束 同样的他和他的队友正努力使季後赛继续走下去 系列赛近四场比赛内有三场比赛都在延长赛分出胜负 火箭输了其中两场失分总和五分 "We've got to really believe and that's the only way we're going to win it," Howard said. "It starts with myself and James (Harden)." 「我们必须相信而且我们只有一种方式能够赢得系列赛」Howard表示 「将从我和James Harden开始」 Harden scored 37 points in Houston's lone victory, but has struggled against the Blazers, making just 36 of 103 shots combined in the four games. Harden在火箭队赢球的那场比赛得到了37分， 但在面对拓荒者时显得很挣扎 四场比赛投篮出手103次只命中36球 Howard said the Rockets are focused on finding a way to finish better. Howard表示火箭将寻找方法将比赛最後时刻打得更好 "We've got to go from playing good for 44 minutes to playing for all 48," he said. "If we do that, then we'll turn this series around." 「我们必须从44分钟变成整场比赛都好表现」他说 「如果我们这样做的话，我们将可以逆转此系列赛」 Portland's Damian Lillard knows the Blazers will get Houston's best shot on Wednesday night and this will be their biggest test yet. 拓荒者队Damian Lillard表示拓荒者将在星期三晚上面临火箭的最大考验 "Houston will show a lot of fight," he said. "I believe 100 percent that they feel like they can still win the series. It will be hard to put them away. We've got to take it up a level because they will try to keep their season alive." 「火箭将会展现出对抗」他表示 「我认为他们百分之百相信他们仍然可以赢下此系列赛 这将很困难将他们甩开 我们必须提升我们的水平因为他们将设法将系列赛延伸下去」 The Trail Blazers have lost in the first round in their last six trips to the playoffs. A win Wednesday would put them in the second round for the first time since losing in the Western Conference finals in 2000. 波特兰拓荒者在近六次季後赛之旅中都在首轮出局 在星期三的比赛赢得胜利的话将使他们挺进第二轮 自从2000年输掉西区决赛後首次 "We want to finish the series right now and it's going to take a lot of focus from our team and a lot of mental toughness and togetherness," Lillard said. "That's the only way we're going to get it done on the road." 「我们想要就此结束系列赛 我们必须更加团结与心理素质更好」Lillard表示 「这是唯一的方法我们能够在客场结束系列赛」 The Rockets have gotten a boost in the last two games from the play of rookie Troy Daniels. Daniels spent most of the season in the NBA Development League, playing just five regular-season games in Houston, but made the game-winning 3-pointer in Houston's win and added 17 points in the last game. 火箭新秀Troy Daniels在近两场比赛中爆发 Daniels本季大部分在NBA发展联盟中打球 只在火箭打了五场例行赛， 但在火箭赢球那场比赛投进致胜三分 第四战中得到了17分 McHale plans to use Daniels in Game 5, too. McHale计画继续让Daniels也在第五战上场 "We've got to incorporate him in there," McHale said. "He can make shots. He's not afraid. He works hard." 「我们并需更加善用Daniels」McHale表示 「他可以投篮并不畏惧，他非常努力」 If Houston wants to keep its season alive, it will have to stay focused on trying to slow down LaMarcus Aldridge. He combined for 89 points in the first two games of the series but cooled down a bit in Portland, and had 23 and 29 points in the two games there. 如果火箭想要将季後赛延续下去，必须焦点集中在放慢LaMarcus Aldridge 他在前两场比赛中合计得到89分但在波特兰时时手感稍微冷却 後两场比赛分别得到23分与29分 He was unhappy with the way Portland has played in the first quarter of the last two games and said the Trail Blazers are intent on changing that on Wednesday. 他并不高兴拓荒者在第三与第四场比赛首节的表现 并且表示拓荒者将在星期三改善此情形 "We've just got to have a better start," he said. "We just have to match their intensity because they're going to be ready to go." 「我们必须在一开始表现得更好」他表示 「我们必须达到与对手的强度一样， 因为对手已经准备好了」 Houston point guard Patrick Beverley missed practice on Tuesday with an illness and has been struggling with a knee problem since banging into Aldridge late in Game 1, but McHale expects him to be ready for Game 5. 火箭控卫Patrick Beverley在星期二的练习中由於伤病缺席 并且在第一战撞到Aldridge後，被膝盖问题所困扰 但McHale期待Beverley能够准备出战第五战。 "I have been concerned about Pat between his knee and not feeling well and everything else," McHale said. "He is going to have to show up and play." 「我一直很关心Patrick的膝盖并且有点担心」McHale表示 「他明天将上场打球」 --
