標題：Time not on the Mavericks' side? 　　　時間是否站在小牛這邊呢？ 前言：Mavericks have to worry about outlasting injuries and the Spurs 　　　小牛必須開始擔心傷病與馬刺交手的問題 正文：By EDDIE SEFKO / The Dallas Morning News WASHINGTON – One race wasn't enough for the Mavericks. 華盛頓巫師：一場比賽無法滿足小牛們 Matching wins with San Antonio will be difficult enough, for sure. But with 17 games left in the regular season, the Mavericks have another chase that probably trumps the battle with the Spurs for the best record in the Western Conference. 可以肯定的是，小牛要打敗馬刺是一件艱難的事情， 不過在１７場賽事以後，小牛必須面臨一個極有可能的挑戰， 那就是和聖安東尼奧馬刺隊的西區最佳紀錄之爭． They must win the race against time. 小牛必須贏得和時間的競賽． In little more than a month, the playoffs begin. The clock is ticking on getting a playoff rotation set. Before Avery Johnson can do that, he must get some players healthy. And that is the overriding issue in the locker room. 再一個多月，季後賽就要開始了． 時間的滴答聲點響了即將到來的季後賽循環， 小牛教練 Avery Johnson必須在那之前讓傷兵量減到最少． 這將是小牛更衣室內最重要的問題． "Yeah, it would be great to have the No. 1 seed and have home court throughout the playoffs," Jerry Stackhouse said. "But that could all be gone in one game. We got to worry about hopefully having our guys come back and trying to have enough games to get them in a good rhythm going into the playoffs with some continuity. ”是的，季後賽的西區第一種子和主場穩固的確是我們追逐的目標” Stackhouse說， ”那些可能都只是一場比賽的事情，我們現在必須去擔心且祈禱， 　我們隊上那些小夥子(傷兵)能不能在季後賽之前回來， 　而且還要有足夠的時間和上場去讓他們恢復狀態． "Last year going into the playoffs, the last 17, 18 games, we were pretty damn good. Now it's a question who we'll have and how much we can expect from them. So we got concerns. But at the same time, some other guys are stepping up." ”去年我們闖進了季後賽，在最後第１７和１８場比賽， 　我們表現真他媽的好．(原諒我XD 我必須忠於原味) 　現在有一個問題讓我們去思考，那就是我們可以得多少分， 　這是我們所掛念的． 　但是在同一時間，有些小夥子正在步步成長中．” But Rawle Marshall and Josh Powell and D.J. Mbenga – willing and able helpers during this injury crunch – are not supposed to be the heavy lifters come playoff time. 但是 Marshall和 Josh Powell, D.J. Mbenga 必須在這傷兵滿營的關鍵時刻挺身而出， 他們必須在那些傷兵歸營前幫忙撐起大局． The aches and pains to starters Josh Howard and Adrian Griffin, as well as key reserves Devin Harris and Keith Van Horn, have shifted the focus as the Mavericks arrive in Washington for the middle leg of their three-game trip. Josh Howard和 Adrian Griffin是小牛傷病的開端， 而 Devin Harris和 Keith Van Horn也是一樣的， 三場的客場之旅包括與華盛頓巫師隊的比賽，他們都有可能是板凳上的球員． San Antonio? The Mavericks will worry about the Spurs if they get to the last week or two of the season and the issue still isn't settled. 聖安東尼奧？小牛的確需要擔心與他們的交手(只翻大意囉)． "I don't think anybody's thinking about that right now," Stackhouse says. "We want to win every game we play and not worry about what San Antonio does. They might win every game they play. So what? ”我不認為誰現在會去想這些，” Stackhouse說． ”我們渴望贏得每一場比賽，包括聖安東尼奧馬刺在內． 　他們同樣可能贏得他們每場比賽，那又如何？ "We're dealing with so many little things with guys coming in and contributing. As far as the standings go, we're a playoff team, so either way we're going to line up against somebody." ”我們大夥兒解決了很多事情和貢獻在賽場． 　就名次而言，我們已經是一支季後賽球隊， 　我們必須整頓好球隊去防範某些麻煩．” In the interim, they are adjusting on the fly as they plug holes. 在這過渡期，小牛已經適應，且他們火力全開． "We're not going to make excuses," Erick Dampier said. "You put five players on the court, regardless of who's hurt. Obviously, we have enough talent to win." ”我們不會找理由” Erick Dampier說． ”不管誰受傷，無論如何，你必須在場上放五名球員． 　很明顯的，我們有足夠的才能去取得勝利．” Making a late run: Marshall will continue to start until Adrian Griffin is ready to return. 最新及時消息： Marshall將繼續在場上直到 Adrian Griffin傷癒復出． Owner Mark Cuban joked after Marshall's season-best 12 points against Houston on Wednesday that the 6-6 guard is "trying to make that all-rookie team with a late push." 我們的 Mark Cuban對 Marshall在對抗休斯頓火箭時的個人新高表現(12分) 開了個小玩笑　”以後我想嘗試組一支全"菜鳥"球隊．” Johnson just wants to see solid play. 而小將軍只想要看到充實硬朗的球風． "I told Rawle not to do anything fancy," Johnson said. "Just keep it simple." ”我跟 Marshall說別做任何幻想，”小將軍說． ”盡量把事情簡單化．” Said Marshall: "I had a bunch of great players in front of me. I just waited my turn. Unfortunately they got hurt, and this is my chance. I just want to get out and help." Marshall則說”我只是幫忙那些比我偉大的球員．我就等待我的出場． 　很遺憾他們受傷了，但這也是我的機會．我就只想著上場且幫忙球隊．” M-V-P, M-V-P: Dirk Nowitzki might be swaying MVP votes with every city he visits in the last month of the season. M-V-P, M-V-P的呼聲： 在本季最後一個月， Dirk Nowitzki將影響他拜訪過城市的ＭＶＰ選票． "They always want to talk about the other guys in the MVP race, and they put him in the "also mentioned" category," Johnson said. "But there's not one coach in the league I don't think that wouldn't want to have him on their team." ”他們總是很喜歡討論誰誰誰有力競爭ＭＶＰ， 　然後又將 Dirk Nowitzki放在"值得一提"的分類中，”小將軍說． ”不過整個聯盟不是只有一個教練，我不認為他們不希望隊上有 Dirk．” Coast to coast: Only three days after arriving in Dallas from Sacramento, the Mavericks touched down in the nation's capital. Tonight against the Wizards, they will play in their fourth time zone in a week. 客場之旅： 僅僅三天從沙加緬度到達拉斯，小牛們又即將降落在國家的首都(華盛頓巫師)． 今晚就要對抗巫師了，這是小牛們一周內降落的第四個時區．(真是舟車勞頓XD) "We don't make excuses," Johnson said. "We started off in the Central time zone, went [Pacific], came back to the Mountain, back west, now we're heading to the East Coast. That's part of the NBA. ”我們不會找藉口”小將軍說． ”我們從中央時區開始，往太平洋方向，然後又回到山上，接著回到西部， 　現在我們又要去東區客場．這就是ＮＢＡ的一部分． "But I never give this team a reason for excuses. Obviously, I realize some of the circumstances. But I will not compromise our vision or our system just because we have a few guys out." ”但是我不會給任何理由去給這支球隊找藉口． 　很明顯的，我領悟到關於局勢的一些事情(傷兵滿營問題)． 　但是我不會影響到我們的視野和作戰系統， 　因為我們只是有一些小夥子不能上場而已．” 原文來源:達拉斯晨報 www.dallasnews.com -- 翻的不好請見諒囉^^"" 好累,都是不停斷線害的>"<m 我先去睡搞搞了~大家晚安 -- ★ 我愛你!!
