No match for Heat http://tinyurl.com/d4s79 By PHIL JASNER [email protected] Posted on Sat, Dec. 17, 2005 THIS WASN'T as much a gauge of the 76ers' progress as it was a confirmation of what needs to be done. This was a night when they wanted to do more, but could not. They began almost as if they were so many concert-goers, pushing, shoving, scrambling to get as close as they could to the marquee visitors. Instead, they remained behind the velvet rope. 这场球赛不能说是一个衡量七六人是否进步的方法，更适合的说法是它确认了什麽 事情是需要做到的。这是一个他们想做到更多，但是做不到的夜晚。他们一开始的 表现好像他们是抢着要看音乐会的观众，推挤、冲撞、混乱，想尽办法更靠近音乐 会入口的遮蓬。事实上，他们仍然只能站在护栏後面。 In what became a 112-105 loss to the Miami Heat, the Sixers - chugging out of the gate like a '57 Chevy with the engine sputtering - fell behind by as many as 17 points in the first half, and by as many as 20 in the third quarter. That doesn't work against a Diesel. 以112比105输给了迈阿密热火队，七六人—像一台摧着引擎从栅栏冲出来的'57 Chevy 汽车—上半场就落後17分之多，第三节更落後达20分，因为他们挡不住柴油拖车。 The Diesel is, of course, Shaquille O'Neal, all 7-1, perhaps 345 pounds of him. In his fourth game back after missing 18 with a sprained ankle, O'Neal served as a massive fulcrum for the visitors. They have won all four since O'Neal returned, and are now 3-0 under Pat Riley, who moved down from the president's office when Stan Van Gundy decided to spend more time with his family. 柴油拖车，当然就是七尺一寸、三百四十五磅重的Shaquille O'Neal。在他因脚踝 钮伤缺阵十八场比赛後归队的第四场比赛，O'Neal在热火队里扮演中流砥柱的角色。 侠客归队後他们已经连赢四场，在代替想要花更多时间陪伴家人的Stan Van Gundy 而从总裁大位下来执教的Pat Riley掌符之下，他们战绩三胜零败。 The Sixers, for their part, must start spending more time on the glass, more time preventing, say, Dwyane Wade from getting into the lane so easily, more time working on their defensive rotations. Granted, the Heat offers some unique challenges, with the power and domination of O'Neal in the post, the speed and grace of Wade and a supporting cast, including Gary Payton, James Posey and Antoine Walker, that can spread the floor and launch jump shots from all angles. 对七六人来说，应该要开始花更多时间练习抓篮板；花更多时间训练防守，看看Dwyane Wade能轻易地拿球切入就知道；花更多时间练习防守阵容；就算面对热火队带来的 独特挑战：他们有充满力量主宰禁区的侠客、有集速度与美感於一身的Wade、还有 能能够提供火力的队友，包括Gary Payton，James Posey和Antoine Walker；他们 可以打开进攻视野，可以从球场的任何角度出手跳投。 Compounding that, the Sixers' Allen Iverson suffered a sprained left thumb that seemed to hurt his ability to shoot free throws; the NBA's leading scorer, who finished with 35 points, was 7-for-16 from the foul line. The nine misses represented the most he has ever missed as a Sixer. Also, at some point, Kyle Korver sprained his right thumb. 加上七六人的Allen Iverson左手大拇指扭伤，似乎造成他罚球命中率下降。这位目 前NBA得分王得了35分，但罚球线上投16只中7。9球失手是他为七六人征战以来从来 没有过的。另外KyleKorver也扭伤了右手大拇指。 X-rays were negative on both. X光检查的结果都没有大碍。 "I don't think the thumb affected [Iverson] that much," Sixers coach Maurice Cheeks said. "I think he was going to play, no matter what, even if it were broken." 「我不认为大拇指受伤会影响他那麽多」，Maurice Cheeks说，「不管如何我想他还 是会继续奋战，即使手指断了」。 Iverson said: "I know mentally it was bothering me, but I don't know how much it was bothering me physically. They knock Shaq about free throws, but I'm the one who needs to get knocked about free throws." Iverson表示「我知道身体上来说它会影响我，但我不知道心理上它影响了我多少， 他们利用侠客罚球不准这点来攻击，但是今天我也是其中一位，可以利用罚球不准 来攻击的人」。 Raising their level to meet the Heat's challenges, the Sixers painfully learned, can be a steep climb. The Heat shot 70.6 percent from the floor in the first quarter, 62.5 percent in the first half. In the end, a respectable 45.5 percent effort from the Sixers, with Chris Webber contributing 23 points, wasn't close to sufficient. Again, the requisite ray of hope came from rookie Shavlik Randolph, who battled for 10 rebounds in 19 minutes, 1 second. 提高自己的层次对抗热火队这个挑战，七六人痛苦的学到，这就像是攀爬悬崖一样 难。热火队第一节命中率70.6%，上半场结束62.5%。最後七六人即使是有着让人尊 敬的45.5%命中率，还有Chris Webber也贡献23分，也都还不足够。一样必要的希 望之光，这次是新秀Shavlik Randolph。他上场19分钟1秒抓下10个篮板。 The Heat - with O'Neal managing 21 points and 13 rebounds - cleaned the glass for a 49-35 advantage. 热火队—侠客拿下21分还有13篮板—掌握49比35的篮板优势。 If there were a ray of disappointment, it was that John Salmons - who began the season playing the best, most aggressive ball of his career - played only 11:35, all in the first half. 如果有令人失望的表现，那就是鲑鱼了。他开季打出身价，也是生涯最积极的时候 今晚只打了11分35秒，全部是在上半场。 The Sixers, who began the fourth quarter down 15 points, came back as close as 95-90 with 6:06 remaining. But they didn't have a ladder that reached high enough to climb out of the huge hole. 七六人第四节开打前还落後15分，而在比赛结束前6分06秒追成95比90。但是他们没 有够高的梯子，可以爬的更高、填补巨大的漏洞。 "When you play a team like Miami, you cannot start the way we started, because we put ourselves in such a hole," said Cheeks, who saw the Sixers' winning streak end at four games. "But I thought that in the fourth quarter was where we competed. I thought we competed at a high level, but we put ourselves in such a hole, and you can't do that against a good team like Miami. 看到七六人终止四连胜的教练Cheeks说：「当你跟热火这种球队比赛，你开局不可以 打成这样；因为我们把自己丢进洞里。但是我认为第四节我们有做到该做的，我想我 们最後打出高水准，但是我们把自己丢进这麽大的洞里；而你不能再跟像热火队这种 好队伍对战的时候做这种事」。 "They spaced the floor. They have a great post player, and a great perimeter player who is going to get better - Shaq and Wade. Then they spread the floor with those shooters, so if you stop one of them going to the rim... they kicked the ball out, and fortunately for them, Walker made a couple of threes. That probably was the difference." 「他们打开局面，他们有很好的低位球员、还有一位精益求精的好球员—就是Shaq跟 Wade。然後他们利用射手拉开进攻范围，如果你可以阻止其中一位，把他逼到边线他 们就会丢球出来；幸运地，Walker投进几颗三分球，而这或许就是差别所在」。 A follow-up three by Walker was, in fact, a dagger. He drained the shot with 1:56 remaining, giving the Heat a 107-97 lead. 事实上，接下来Walker投进的三分球就像一把匕首。他终场前1分56秒得手，让热火取 得10797领先。 With O'Neal, Cheeks said, "You have to figure out if you're going to [double-team him], but they have the great perimeter player who can get to the rim. We've just got to get better." 谈到侠客，Cheeks说：「你必须想出方法包夹他，但是他们有很好的外线射手，我们 需要在更进步」。 Said Korver: "It's hard to guard Shaq even if there's no outside presence. The stat sheet said he was 9-for-17; it felt like he was 15-for-17. It didn't feel like he ever missed; he was just pounding us down low." Korver说：「即使没有外线射手，要守住Shaq也是困难的事；数据表上显示他投17中9 但感觉像是他投17中15，感觉不出来他有失手过；他就是击败我们」。 Cheeks was pleased with the Sixers' fourth-quarter defense and rebounding, a far cry from a third-quarter timeout huddle he began by telling his players, "If you want to bleeping play, then play." Cheeks满意七六人在第四节的防守跟篮板，第三节的一次暂停他一开始就说：「如果 你们想要一场精采的比赛，那就打出身手阿」。 After the game, he said, "If we can learn to compete for 48 minutes [as we did in the fourth quarter], we'll be fine." 赛後他说：「如果我们整场都能像第四节做的那麽好，我们应该没问题」。 The Sixers seemed to understand. 而七六人球员们似乎了解。 "Just getting back into the game and making it a game is all heart," Iverson said. "It feels bad, though, because we don't give that effort in the beginning and then we start showing the heart when we're about to get blown out. You have to play like that in the beginning and get stronger as the game goes on." 「要从落後追回来、还有在比赛中做好工作，就是一个决心而已」。Iverson说 「感觉很糟、很艰难，因为我们一开始并没有努力，当我们要被击败了我们才开始 展现决心；你必须比赛一开始就这样打，然後随着比赛的进行打的更强势」。 --
