Finally, there was Coach Phil Jackson, on his feet, whistling at his players, moving toward the court and barking something bitter at Ronny Turiaf. Honest, Jackson, often as animated as a urinal cake, was visibly and undeniably coaching. Lakers的板凳大隊像是Sasha,Famar的連續三分,Fisher對著裁判吼叫 最後,Phil站起來不停的以口哨聲來提醒他的球員,並責備著Turiaf他所犯的錯誤 老實說,Jackson,大多時候像是活生生的小便斗裡的除臭劑一樣坐在板凳上指揮 昨天卻看到他不停的走來走去提醒球員 All this, and it was only the second quarter. Of an NBA game.In February. 這不過是一場二月份的常規賽裡面的第二節而已 "This was an important game for us from a confidence perspective," Bryant would explain later. "My message to the guys before the game was, 'Know you can do it , don't just think you can. Know you can.'" "這是一場重要的比賽讓我們對未來的有著無比的信心"Kobe解釋著 "我跟隊友在賽前說,相信你自己可以作到而不是只有想著你可以作到" Realize, this generally is the time when most TV viewers would opt to watch the finish of that Magic Bullet infomercial. There is nothing in sports more superfluously necessary than the NBA second quarter. But, on Wednesday, it was prime-time, must-see. 必須要了解這時段通常是觀眾們都在看著東森購物台準備搶購的時刻 沒有什麼運動比NBA的第二節還這麼索然無味了 但是在週三的比賽,卻是一場精采的,必看的第二節 The premiere of the Desert Diesel — one Shaquille O'Neal — made just another regular-season game vibrate off the screen. The fact it was Lakers vs. Suns made the images vibrate all the way to Southern California and back. "These guys have eliminated us from the playoffs the past two years," Lakers forward Lamar Odom said. "If you can't get hyped up for Phoenix and you're a Laker, something's wrong with you." O'neal的沙漠初體驗讓一場常規賽事變的另人注目 "我們連續兩年被Suns在季後賽淘汰"Lakers前鋒Odom說 "如果你看到鳳凰城的辣妹們那你還無法特別興奮的話那你就不配當個湖人球員" Yes, this game had potential repercussions for the long run, the victorious Lakers gaining a tiebreaker edge and maybe a psychological one, too. It certainly had serious Pacific Division implications, the teams now even in the standings. 這場宿命之戰不但一直會讓人得到熱烈的回應 帶走勝利的湖人同時也建立起了信心並且也跟Suns並列太平洋組的龍頭 But the big picture was too big on this night, a night when the focus was contained by the four lines that define the court. This was the new Lakers against the old Laker, the glorious memories of O'Neal vs. what remains of O'Neal. This was a collision of the Lakers' past and their future, a bunch of storylines tangling in one magnificent mess. 這場賽事不只是跟從前的隊友O'neal的比賽,也是Lakers跟Suns的宿敵戰 在這場精采的比賽中不只有一個觀戰焦點 "It's gonna be fun," Suns coach Mike D'Antoni predicted. "We all want to win the championship … but this is going to be entertaining." "這比賽一定會很刺激" D'Antoni在賽前說到 "我們都想贏得冠軍,所以這是一場很好看的比賽" Sadly, what felt like a Game 1 actually was a Game Done. Unless they meet in the playoffs, these teams won't face each other again until sometime around Halloween, at the earliest. Too bad, because the NBA needs more of what these four quarters delivered, and we don't just mean the 254 total points. People like to say this league has an image problem. If so, this game was an attempted makeover. 可惜的是這場比賽卻是雙方在本季最後一次交手,除非他們能在季後賽再度碰頭 不然球迷們可能要等到大概明年的萬聖節左右才能再度目睹這場比賽了 這真是太可惜了,NBA就是需要這樣有話題性的比賽來刺激觀眾族群 NBA就是需要這樣刺激的比賽來挽回觀眾的心 "This was definitely a game we were excited to play," Fisher said. "Anybody who had a chance to see this tonight had to feel good about what both teams put out there." "我們的確是對這場比賽萬分的興奮與期待"Fisher說 "任何一個人看了這場比賽後應該對這兩隊的比賽內容而感到雀躍不已才是" After mostly silence of late, Bryant finally spoke about O'Neal on Wednesday. He also said some stuff after the game, even describing Shaq's bullying baskets in the fourth quarter "pretty awesome to see." 在多次以沉默回答記者有關O'neal的問題後,Kobe昨晚終於發表了意見 他也提到了一些比賽的內容,也形容Shaq在第四節多次的凌辱禁區是很讓人畏懼的 But Bryant's words weren't as telling as his deeds. He scored 41 points, 13 in the fourth quarter. He had a late three-pointer that D'Antoni said, "kind of cut our legs off." He sat out barely two minutes total, the message being that he wanted badly to beat O'Neal. Kobe說的話不如他在場上的行動那樣讓Suns球迷心碎,他得了41分 也在第四節得了13分,關鍵時刻更補了一個三分球 D'Antoni說"這無疑是在我們背上捅了一刀" Kobe昨晚打了46分鐘,種種的現象隱約讓我們感到他有多想打敗過去的老隊友 In the same building where he once famously didn't assert himself in the playoffs, Bryant was as into this game as the basketball was. More than once, it was as if he rose to shoot in February and landed right in the middle of May. "There was a familiar energy in the building," Bryant said. "It felt like a playoff type of environment. It was fun to be a part of." 在同樣的場地,Kobe不只一次的在這邊打過季後賽 五月的時候我們都希望能在同樣的場地看到Kobe又在這邊比賽 "這主場讓我感到熟悉的感覺"Kobe說到"這激烈的程度就像是一場季後賽" Then there was O'Neal lunging after a loose ball and instead chop-blocked one of the referees into the front row. He tried to take a charge from Pau Gasol and somersaulted backward, later explaining, "I took gymnastics when I was little." After one of his shots was goal-tended by a flying Bryant, O'Neal turned and manically sprinted to the other end, a 7-foot-1, 325-plus-pound cartoon character. Asked about his speed later, he explained, "Steve Nash has instructed me to get my Randy Moss going." O'neal爭搶地板球撞到一旁的裁判,嘗試著作Gasol的進攻犯規,還飛出去救回一顆界外球 "我小時候練習過體操"O'neal解釋著 在那次對Kobe的勾天頂之後,o'neal更是狂暴的往球場另一方走去 當被問到他的速度的時候, 他解釋"Nash就像是我的Randy Moss,我只要跑到他傳球的地方就好" His influence limited until the fourth quarter, O'Neal finished with 15 points and nine rebounds. It was a start for him but not enough for his teammates. Now the Lakers and Suns head in different directions, while both pointed at the same destination. There's potentially something very large happening here, and we're not talking about O'Neal's presence. No, this is about two teams and one rivalry. All three only figure to get better. Here's hoping the Lakers and Suns intersect in the spring. Quite simply, this was too good not to last. 他到了第四節才展現他的影響力,O'neal最後得到了15分跟9個籃板 當然這樣的表現還不足以讓球隊贏球 現在Suns跟Lakers雖然補強的方向不一樣但是卻都是朝著同樣的目標邁進 這兩支宿敵球隊的爭戰還會在這持續下去 我們期望這兩支球隊還能在今天春天交手, 簡單的說,這樣精采的比賽不能只是本季的最後一次交手 -- 暴喧 █▅▅▅█ ▅▅█▅▅ ▅▅▅▅▅▅ ◢ ▅▅█▅▅ 暴常 走嘩 █▅▅▅█ █ █ ◢█ ▅▅█▅▅ 走存 無下 ▄█▄█▄ ▅▅▅█▅▅▅ ▅▅▅█▅▅▅ ◤█ █▅█▅█ 一我 用等 ▄▄█▄█▄▄ █▅ ◢◤◥◣ █ █ 筋心 ！！ ◢◤◣█◢◥◣ ◢◤ █ ◢◤ ◥◣ █ ◥█◣ ，。 ◢ ◢▼◣ ◣ ◢◤ ▅█▅▅◤ ◢◤ ◥◣ █ ◢◤◥█◣ --
