The Celtics flew out to a 37-20 lead by the end of the first quarter, but expended an immense amount of energy in the process. 禮拜五青賽的第一個圈用迅雷不及掩耳的速度 37:20打爆來犯的老鷹隊 不過也有點用光汽油 Sure enough, Atlanta battled back and eventually took the lead late in the third quarter, which prompted Stevens to expound upon his metaphor following the final buzzer. 結果老鷹隊後來居上甚至第三節一度領先 搞的史帥有以下譬喻 "For any of you that have ever run the mile," he explained to the media, "you run the first lap breakneck speed, and then at about the third lap it just feels like you're never going to make the last two laps." 「如果你第一圈衝太快， 到了第三圈你會覺得自己最後兩圈跑不完了」 Typically, a runner would be passed by another in that situation. Or, in the case of a basketball team, it would blow its lead and have difficulty recovering. 通常這種狀況，跑者都會被超越 那籃球來說，可能就是被拉開追不回來 There are a few freak athletes, however, that can keep going at breakneck pace and never let up until the finish. 可是有少數的幾個變態體能王 可以整場都用一樣的速度在場上衝刺 Fortunately, Boston had one such athlete on its side Friday night, as Isaiah Thomas sprinted from the starting gates to the finish line and never broke stride en route to a career-high 42 points that guided Boston to a critical 111-103 Game 3 win. 很幸運的，青賽隊上就有一個—矮笑湯 打滿全場、拿下生涯新高42分，帶領青賽111:103取勝 "I thought that we were starting to wear down after we took that 19-point lead [in the second quarter]," said Stevens. "But then Isaiah made huge play after huge play." 「我以為我們第二節失去19分的領先就要完蛋了 還好矮笑湯的好表現讓我們穩住戰局」史帥說 IT dashed out with a 16-point first quarter, nearly outscoring the entire Atlanta squad during that span. He played just half of the second frame, but came out and tallied 12 points during the third and 11 during the fourth to cap off his career performance. 第一節16分，跟老鷹整隊一樣 第二節只打了一半時間 拿了12分 第三節11 Thomas' second-half effort was particularly impressive as he kept the C's afloat despite Atlanta's comeback effort. He was playing as if it was the last game of the season, throwing his body around and putting everything on the line for his team. 尤其是下半場的表現令人驚豔 矮笑湯把這場比賽當作最後一場比賽在打 "Tonight was just a game that I didn't care what happened," said Thomas. "I was out there just trying to make the right play, make the winning plays and do what I can to help this team win." 「今晚就只是一場我不顧一切的比賽」矮笑湯說 「我只是試著投進、讓隊伍贏球」 Throughout Games 1 and 2, the point guard experienced difficulty making such plays. Atlanta was swallowing him up in the paint and he seemed a bit out of his element, which was evident by his 33.3 percent shooting from the field. 第一戰第二戰我們的這位控衛打的很爛 命中率只有33.3%的他被老鷹完全封鎖 So Boston adjusted heading into Game 3 by playing Thomas off the ball more, and it worked wonders. With Thomas not serving as much of a primary ball-handling role, he was able to fly more freely around the court and get different looks off screens and in transition. 所以這一站青賽讓矮笑湯多打無球 結果奏效了 不用控球後矮笑湯在場上的存在更加自由 "That was a really good adjustment that they made," reflected Hawks guard Kyle Korver. "They were setting great screens and that was a look that we hadn't had from him in this series, so it's something that we were talking about after the game. 「他們這樣打很厲害」艾希頓庫奇說 「製造出很多前兩場沒看過的空檔，我們賽後在討論的就是這個」 "We have to be ready for it, but it definitely gives them a different look when he's coming off the screen and just loaded with the ball right away." 「我們會準備好破解的，縱使他的效果讓我們耳目一新」 And when IT is locked and loaded, he always has the green light to shoot away. 矮笑湯因為這套打法獲得更多輕鬆出手的機會 "Can't get any more green than playing here," Stevens cleverly stated. "He can shoot it whenever he's open or thinks he's open." 「無以復加的空檔」史帥說 「當他是空檔 或他認為自己是 就可以出手」 Sometimes, it appears as if Thomas just needs an inch of separation to feel open. He proved that time and time again Friday night as he knocked down a number of contested shots. 有時候感覺矮笑湯只需要一點點的空間 他今天投進不少碰撞後or被鎖死後的出手 "He hit five 3s and some of them were tough," said Hawks coach Mike Budenholzer. "Coming off pin-downs, coming off screens... he had a heck of a night." 「他幹進5顆三分而且有一些是豪洨球」 布鐸喉摺說「檔拆卡位跳投出手...很猛喔今天」 As Thomas put it after the game, "I was just in attack mode. I was trying to do everything it takes to win this game, and my teammates kept feeding me and putting me in the right spots and the shots were falling." 「我只是進入攻擊模式，試著用所有辦法贏球 而我的隊友一直傳給我然後想辦法讓我舒服出手」 矮笑湯將功勞歸究於隊友 Those shots will need to keep falling when Boston takes the court Sunday night for Game 4. As long as Thomas keeps running laps around Atlanta like he did during Friday's contest, the C's should be in position to tie this series up 2-2. 如果一直持續下去 我們會贏下第四場 只要矮笑湯繼續維持這樣的高檔 那2:2，我們來了。 --
