No Lamar Odom mean increased PT for Dirk? 沒有Odom，所以要增加Dirk的上場時間？ Even as Lamar Odom has struggled to find his shot and generally fit in with the Dallas Mavericks, coach Rick Carlisle has noted that Odom playing even just 20 minutes a game allows Dirk Nowitzki stay around a very manageable 32. 儘管Odom陷入低潮，這一季一直在尋找他的投籃手感跟融入小牛的隊型， 但Carlisle每一場還是讓Odom上場大約20分鐘， 藉此控制Dirk的上場時間在32分鐘左右。 That will be put to the test again Tuesday as it would appear that Odom will not be in uniform. Carlisle said after Monday's practice that Odom remains away from the team tending to a family issue. A source confirmed that Odom left the team Wednesday because of his ill father, who resides in Los Angeles. 如果下一場比賽沒辦法看到Odom穿著球衣的話， 教練對於Dirk的上場時間的控制又將面臨考驗。 Carlisle在星期一的練習過後表示Odom還是因為家人的關係沒有在隊上。 消息指出Odom是在上星期三離隊，因為他那住在LA 生著病的父親。 Odom missed Wednesday's 96-91 home loss to the Lakers and Nowitzki logged 36 minutes, not a terribly high number, but certainly such games can add up as the Mavs begin a stretch of nine games in 12 days Tuesday against the New Jersey Nets. Odom缺席了上一場在主場跟湖人的比賽， 那一場Nowitzki打了36分鐘，還不算是太糟糕的數字， 但是可以想像這數字將會增加，伴隨著小牛接下來12天9戰的賽程。 "We have a lot of games coming up, a lot of back-to-backs so we’ve got to get our rest," Nowitzki said. "We’re going to need our bench to play well, that’s for sure." Nowitzki：＂我們接下來會有一堆比賽，一堆B2B的比賽，所以得讓我們休息一下， 可以確定的是，我們需要板凳群有好的表現。＂ Without Odom, Yi Jianlian spelled Nowitzki at times against the Lakers. Brandan Wright can play power forward, but he has been used mostly at center. Shawn Marion is also capable of switching from small forward to power forward. 沒有Odom的情況下， 上一場跟湖人的比賽中，Yi稍微幫Dirk爭取了一點休息的時間。 Wright是可以打PF喇，但他大部分的時間是扮演中鋒的角色。 Marion也是個可以SF PF通吃的球員。 "We’re an older team and those young guys; we’re glad Roddy’s back and DoJo and we’re going to need some fresh legs to make some stuff happen," Nowitzki said, referring to guards Rodrigue Beaubois and Dominique Jones. "Brandan Wright’s got young legs and those guys need to come play for us." Nowitzki：＂我們是支老人加上一些年輕人組成的球隊， 我們很高興Roddy的歸隊，再加上DoJo都有我們需要的年輕有勁的雙腿。 Wright也有雙年輕的腿，這些傢伙必須多幫我們跳一下。＂ Beaubois returned to practice Monday. He missed the last five games following the death of his father. Beaubois歸隊。 http://0rz.tw/mEalY 12天9戰真的很辛苦， 希望Odom早日歸隊，板凳人人都是暴徒！ 撐過這段時間，接下來就沒這麼累人了吧... 當然也希望魔獸能一起撐過交易時間，這樣3D的機會就更大了XD --
