It can happen during the seven scary seconds when the eyes of a franchise’s would-be savior stay closed, right before he opens them in agony. 这可能发生在下巴与硬木地板第一次惊人的碰撞，以及随之而来的第二次剧烈反弹之间。 这可能发生在全城寄予厚望的救世主双眼紧闭、随即因痛苦而睁开的那恐怖的七秒钟内。 That’s how quickly a plan can fall apart. That’s how quickly a season of hope and apparent destiny can crash into irrelevance. That’s how quickly Fiesta can become Dia de los Playoff Muertos. 这就是计画崩溃的速度。这就是一个充满希望与天命感的赛季陷入毫无意义的速度。这就 是Fiesta变成季後赛亡灵节（Dia de los Playoff Muertos）的速度。 The good news Tuesday night at Frost Bank Center was that Victor Wembanyama got up again. 周二晚间在 Frost Bank Center 的好消息是，Victor Wembanyama 再次站了起来。 Now we’ll find out if the Spurs can do the same. 现在，我们将看看马刺队是否也能做到同样的事。 They still might make it past the Portland Trail Blazers and into the second round of the NBA playoffs. They might go a lot farther than that. But it’s not going to be as easy as it looked when Wembanyama started his second-quarter spin move around Jrue Holiday, and that truth applies no matter how long the 7-foot-4 Frenchman needs to sit out. 他们或许仍能击败波特兰拓荒者并挺进 NBA 季後赛第二轮，甚至走得更远。但这不会像 Wembanyama 在第二节绕过 Jrue Holiday 进行转身过人时看起来那麽容易了。无论这位 7 尺 4 寸的法国人需要缺阵多久，这都是事实。 Championship aspirations are such fragile things, aren’t they? One minute, a packed arena is rocking, and the city around it is contemplating how long a second dynasty can last. Then the Most Valuable Player finalist who’d just hoisted a Defensive Player of the Year trophy lands face-first under the basket, and in an instant, premature celebration morphs into premature dread. 夺冠的抱负是如此脆弱的东西，不是吗？前一分钟，满场的球馆还在震动，整座城市还在 思索第二个王朝能持续多久；下一分钟，这位刚刚举起年度最佳防守球员奖盃、且是年 度 MVP 决选名单的球星，脸朝下摔倒在篮框下。瞬间，提前到来的庆祝演变成了提前到 来的恐惧。 After a 106-103 loss that left the Spurs’ first-round playoff series with the Trail Blazers tied 1-1, any details of Wembanyama’s status moving forward remained unclear. Coach Mitch Johnson confirmed his star center suffered a concussion. Johnson and two other team officials said Wembanyama was not being evaluated for any other injuries. 在马刺以 103 比 106 输球、使得季後赛首轮系列赛被拓荒者追成 1 比 1 平手後，关 於 Wembanyama 未来状况的细节仍不明朗。总教练 Mitch Johnson 证实他的明星中锋遭 受了脑震荡。Johnson 与另外两名球队官员表示，Wembanyama 目前并未针对其他伤势进 行评估。 补充：网路上有关於Wembanyama下巴摔断的传言，这也是赛後媒体询问教练「Wembanyama 是否有到医院做其他检查」的主因。教练跟两位马刺团队人员都确切说「没有」。 But even if he’s cleared to return at some point in the next week, beating the seventh seed in the Western Conference will be no mere formality. 但即使他在下周的某个时间点获准回归，要击败西区第七种子也绝非走个过场。 With Scoot Henderson — Wembanyama’s old draft classmate — shooting the way he did in a 31-point outburst Tuesday, Portland doesn’t need Deni Avdija to do everything. With dogged defenders like Holiday making life miserable for San Antonio scorers, the Blazers aren’t going to let themselves get blown out, especially once the series shifts to Oregon for Games 3 and 4. 随着 Scoot Henderson，Wembanyama 的同届选秀老同学，在周二爆发砍下 31 分的表现 ，波特兰并不需要 Deni Avdija 独扛大旗。加上像 Holiday 这样顽强的防守者让圣安东 尼奥的得分手生活艰难，拓荒者绝不会让自己被轻易击溃，特别是当系列赛转往奥勒冈州 进行第三、四战时。 What the Spurs need to figure out is whether the last eight minutes of Game 2 were a sign of more trouble to come. Even with Wembanyama out of the game, they built a 14-point lead early in the fourth quarter, but that’s when it started going haywire. 马刺队需要搞清楚的是，第二战最後八分钟是否为更多麻烦的前兆。即便 Wembanyama 不 在场上，他们在第四节初期仍建立起 14 分的领先，但随後一切开始乱了套。 Jump shots started clanging off the back of the rim. Floaters started bouncing off the front. Driving lanes were cut off. A couple of passes got sloppy. Before the Spurs knew it, their lead in the game was gone, and so was their lead in the series. 跳投开始弹框而出，抛投磕在篮框前缘，切入路径被封死，几次传球变得粗糙。马刺队还 没反应过来，领先优势已消失殆尽，系列赛的优势也随之而去。 Johnson noted that his team was “not as poised” as it had looked in Game 1, and perhaps that’s to be expected. Most members of his rotation were appearing in their second career playoff game, which meant that this was the first chance they’d ever had to experience something resembling playoff crunch time. Johnson 指出他的球队「不像第一战看起来那麽沉稳」，而这或许是在预期之中。轮替阵 容中的大多数成员都只是在打职业生涯的第二场季後赛，这意味着这是他们第一次体验到 类似季後赛关键时刻（crunch time）的滋味。 They had to navigate those tense final minutes without their best player, and those final minutes didn’t go well. But it wasn’t as though those minutes couldn’t have gone well. 他们必须在失去最强球员的情况下应对那紧张的最後几分钟，而结果并不好。但这并不代 表那些时间原本无法处理好。 After all, Wembanyama missed 18 games during the regular season, and the Spurs won 12 of them. They beat Portland twice without him. They beat Nikola Jokic and the Nuggets without him. They beat LeBron James, Luka Doncic and the Lakers without him. 毕竟，Wembanyama 在例行赛缺席了 18 场比赛，而马刺赢下了其中的 12 场。他们曾在 没有他的情况下两度击败波特兰；他们在没有他的情况下击败了 Nikola Jokic 与金块队 ；他们也在没有他的情况下战胜了 LeBron James、Luka Doncic 以及湖人队。 Wembanyama was the biggest reason why the Spurs pulled off one of the most impressive single-season turnarounds in league history. But he wasn’t the only reason. Wembanyama 是马刺能完成联盟史上最令人印象深刻的单季大翻盘的最大原因，但他并不 是唯一的原因。 “Obviously it’s a big hit that we don’t have the big fella,” forward Keldon Johnson said. “But we’re a good team.” 「显然，失去这位大个子是一个沉重的打击，」前锋 Keldon Johnson 说。「但我们是一 支优秀的球队。」 That’s the catch, though. Even good teams as deep and as balanced and as multi-dimensional as the Spurs can find the postseason to be a razor’s edge. Dwell a few extra seconds on a missed shot, or spend a bit too long protesting a call that doesn’t go your way, and the direction of an entire series can turn. 然而，这就是问题所在。即使是像马刺这样有深度、平衡且多面化的优秀球队，也会发现 季後赛就像刀锋一样危险。多花几秒钟纠结於一记投失的球，或花太长时间抗议一个不如 意的判决，整个系列赛的走向就可能扭转。 If these young Spurs, still newcomers to razors of both the playoff and shaving varieties, needed any lessons about that, they just received some convincing ones. 如果这些年轻的马刺队球员，不论是在季後赛还是括胡子这件事上都还算新手，需要任何 教训，他们刚刚得到了极具说服力的课程。 And if there’s anything they should be grateful for, now that they’ve been reminded how quickly all of this can end? 现在他们已经被提醒这一切能多快结束，还有什麽是值得庆幸的吗？ They still have a chance to make sure it doesn’t. 那就是他们仍有机会确保这一切不会真的结束。 Mike Finger Sports Columnist --
