※ 引述《jerod (KG4MVP)》之铭言： 最近的延长赛有着较好的防守 : http://www.twincities.com/mld/twincities/sports/basketball/16667279.htm : The Timberwolves have been playing better defense down the stretch. That has : allowed them to stay competitive and have a chance to win. 灰狼在最近一连串的比赛中,防守有了较好的表现.这也让他们有足够的竞争力去争取 胜利. : The Wolves allowed an average of 20.4 points a game and 34.9 percent shooting : in the fourth quarter in the first nine games since Randy Wittman was made : interim head coach following Dwane Casey's firing. That includes outscoring : the Golden State Warriors 32-21 in the fourth quarter of a 121-93 victory : Wednesday night. 灰狼在嘴炮西被炒鱿鱼,Wittman接手总教练後的九场比赛,缴出了平均一场比赛20.4分 以及34.9%的命中.其中也包括了周三晚上对上勇士,以121-93赢得胜利中,爆发性得分 32-21的第四节. : "We've done a better job I think of trying to shrink the floor up and not : give driving lanes," Wittman said. "Sometimes you're going to give up : perimeter shots, but I'd rather give up a perimeter shot than a layup. Our : guys have done a better job of clogging the paint up a little bit, forcing : teams to penetrate and kick the ball out." "我想藉着防守内缩以及阻止内线切入,我们已经做的很棒了,"Wittman在赛前这麽说. "有时候你必须去放弃外线投射,但是我宁愿放弃一个投射也不会放弃一个上篮.我们 的球员在油漆区的防守紧锁会较为严密,这促使队伍看透对方并且不让对方得分." : Heading into Friday night's game at Memphis, Wittman's club was just 3-6 : since he took over, but four of those losses have been by three points or : fewer. The Wolves outscored opponents by an average of 5.3 points in the : fourth quarter in the first nine games. 即将再周五晚上对上灰熊,Wittman在他接管教练之後有着3-6的成绩,但是其中四场败 场输了三分以下.在前九场比赛中,灰狼在第四节的得分平均超过对手5.3分. : "If you want to close the game, the fourth quarter is the right time to do : it," veteran guard Marko Jaric said. "如果你想赢球,那麽第四节是你最好的选择,"经验丰富的後卫,Marko Jaric在赛前这 麽说. : Jaric believes the players have been more focused in the fourth quarter and : have paid more attention to details defensively. Jaric说他相信球员们在第四节时会更加专着,并且在防守的细节上更为谨慎. : Wittman said his emphasis on defense might be paying off. : "We've just stressed coming down the stretches of games (that), hey, we've : got to buckle down now," Wittman said. Wittman说他对於防守的强调将会有回报. "我们已经对於之前的比赛紧绷了很久,嘿,现在我们可以轻松一下了."(这段有点看不懂) : Memphis likes to push the pace and play high-scoring games. The Wolves didn't : want to get caught up in that tempo and play out of their comfort zone. 灰熊像是在加快比赛节奏并且打高得分比赛.灰狼并不愿意去跟随他们的节奏,并且在 他们不擅长的领域打球. : "We can't come down and get into a quick shooting game with this team," : Wittman said. "That's what they want. They want you to make no passes or one : pass and a quick shot. We've got to make sure we're working them defensively : and making them play defense." "我们不能跟他们一样打着快速投射的球风,"Wittman说"这是他们所想看到的.我们必 须确实防守他们,并且让他们也打防守球风." : Briefly: The return of Rashad McCants to the lineup has pushed Bracey Wright : to the inactive list for the past five games. The organization remains : committed to reincorporating McCants, the club's 2005 first-round pick. : Playing time, however, is dictated by performance, just like any other : player, Wittman said. : "It's all how he's playing and how he looks," Wittman said. "There's going to : be ups and downs with that. We'll see how his legs are (against Memphis)." 短讯:Rashad McCants的归来,在过去的六场比赛中,将Bracey Wright挤到非上场球 员名单.球队也做出表态,会持续的让这位2005第一轮选上的球员上场表现.然而Wittman 说,不管是任何人,上场时间都应该由他们各自的表现来决定. "一切都要看他打的如何以及身体状况如何,"Wittman说"情况可能会有所起伏.我们会在 对抗灰熊的比赛中观察他腿的情况." : ‧ Mike James and Randy Foye did a better job of running the offense against : Golden State, Wittman said. : "I want us to run and look for easy scoring opportunities, but then when we : don't have it that we're into something where all five guys know where : everybody is at," Wittman said. "I thought it was better. The transition : (offense) was good for us the last game. We had some better opportunities." Wittman说Mike James以及Randy Foye在周三晚上对上勇士时,跑位进攻做的很不错. "我希望我们的球员可以跑动并且寻找任何可以轻松得分的机会.但是当我们没有机 会的时候,我们就必须跑位,并且熟知所有人的位置."Wittman说"我想这方面已经较 之前好了.上一场比赛我们在进攻上表现地很不错.我们因此有了较好的出手机会." : ‧ Minnesota's 28-point margin of victory over Golden State was its biggest : since defeating Washington by 35 points on Dec. 26, 2004. 灰狼大胜勇士28分的纪录是自他们在2004年12月26号赢了巫师35分後,赢最多的分数. --
