So Casey wasn't complaining about his team's 78-71 win at Indiana, even though issues remain. 但当你已经连续吞下四场败仗，任何型态胜利都会是令人振奋的。所以尽管还有些问 题亟需处理，阿西并未对球队在印地安那以78比71获胜的比赛有所抱怨。 It's difficult to say whether the Wolves actually won this game. Maybe the Pacers just lost it after being ahead 20-4 early and then shooting 27.8 percent in last three quarters. 事实上我们很难说灰狼是靠自己的力量赢得这场比赛，或许只是溜马自乱阵脚，开赛 之初取得20比4的领先後，在接下来三节的比赛只留下27.8%的投篮命中率而导致输球。 The Wolves' defense against Indiana overshadowed Minnesota's own struggles on offense, which included 39.2 percent shooting. Ricky Davis, Mike James and Mark Blount shot 3 for 20 combined (.150). 灰狼对於溜马优异的防守表现掩饰了他们自己荒腔走板的进攻(全场只有39.2%的投篮 命中率)，先发球员R.Davis、伪大帝和M.Blount一共出手20次却只有命中3球(合计命中率 15%)。 After the game, Casey was happy his team had won for the first time since a four-game streak that began Dec. 13 at San Antonio. 赛後，阿西对球队自12月13日於圣安东尼奥以来四连败後首度获胜显得很高兴。 "We'll take it," Casey said. "I think we got our defense back, but we can't forget that we didn't shoot the ball well. But you're going to have those nights. I thought our (starters) played big minutes (Friday night against Milwaukee). I thought that had something to do with our sluggishness at the beginning of the game, but they fought through it." "我们会好好思考，"阿西说。"我认为我们找回了防守，但也不能忘了要好好地把球送 进篮框才能赢球。但你总会遇到像这样情形。我认为我们的先发球员在星期五晚上对上密 尔瓦基公鹿的球赛中上场时间过久，那应该是在开赛之初导致球员表现无精打采的原因之 一，但我们最终还是设法克服了这个问题。" Casey must feel like he can never solve all the problems. 阿西一定觉得自己总有处理不完的问题。 "One night it's one thing, another night it's another," he said. "One of these nights, we're going to get our offense and defense going at the same time. But I was really happy that our guys were able to get a road win in a tough place." "这一晚是这件事，另一晚又是另一件事，"他说。"曾经也有过某个晚上球队在攻守两 端都有好表现，我真的很高兴球队能在难以攻破的球场拿下客场胜利。" That's the most important thing, after all. The Wolves improved their record to 3-14 all time in Indiana. 毕竟，赢球才是最重要的。灰狼将他们对上溜马的对战纪录推进至3胜14败。 -- Second unit surge: For the first time this season, Casey played with a significantly different lineup at the start of the third quarter. Part of the change was forced by the absence of Trenton Hassell, who was out with stomach flu. But Casey's search for a spark dictated the moves when he decided to use Marko Jaric, Mark Blount, Justin Reed, Kevin Garnett and Troy Hudson. 替补球员大跃进：本季第一次，阿西在第三节起启用焕然一新的不同阵容。这一部份 也是因为色狼的缺席，他因为感冒导致肠胃不适所以未能出赛。但从阿西决定使用M.Jaric 、Blount、J.Reed、KG和T.Hudson可以看得出来他希望去改变他的球员组合，看看能否碰 出一些不一样的火花。 "It was all about defense," Jaric said. "We scrambled. We fought for each other. We knew that even if we don't score on offense, defense was going to hold us." "那全都可以归功於出色的防守，"Jaric说。"我们很拼命、为了彼此而奋战。我们知 道就算我们在进攻端没办法拿分，但防守仍可以让我们取得比赛的胜利。" The Pacers shot 2 for 16 in the third quarter and scored just eight points, compared with Minnesota's 17. Indiana's 71 points were the club's fewest since scoring 66 at Cleveland on Jan. 24 last season. 溜马在第三节出手16次仅仅命中2球而且只攻下8分，相较之下灰狼则拿到17分。溜马 全场71分的表现是球队自上个球季1月24日作客克里夫兰仅拿下66分以来的最低纪录。 -- Briefly: Jaric said the Wolves need to show more consistency before declaring their troubles finished. 快讯：Jaric表示灰狼在声明他们的问题都已经获得解决之前必须展现更多的毅力。 "Some guys said we took the monkey off our back," Jaric said. "But I think we still have a couple more games to win. We have to come back and fight harder the next couple of weeks." "有些人说我们已经找出问题的症结点，"Jaric说。"但我认为我们仍有更多的球赛要 拿下，我们必须赶快回神并且在未来数周的球赛中展现更多的拼战精神。" -- ‧ The Wolves play host to Chicago on Tuesday night at Target Center. ‧灰狼星期二晚上将在主场标靶中心迎战芝加哥公牛。 --
