原文網址：http://ppt.cc/Pysz How it happened: By the end of the third quarter, the Dallas Mavericks had long faces. It was apparent by then that their long beards weren’t getting whacked Thursday night. 這個可怕的差距是如何發生的呢? 在第三節末小牛陷入了得分荒，自那時開始，小牛想要在這場 剃掉鬍子就很明顯地無緣了。 The Mavs’ defensive deficiencies, which had been masked recently by Dallas’ remarkable efficiency on the other end, got exposed in the third quarter, when the Pacers turned a halftime tie into a lopsided lead by lighting it up for 34 points in that frame. Indiana shot 70 percent in the quarter, hitting 14 of 20 shots from the floor. 本場小牛的防守漏洞百出，蒙蔽了前幾場他們的高效率表現， 小牛在第三節完全被打爆，由中場時41:41的膠著開始，第三 節比賽呈現了一面倒的狀態，溜馬在此節攻下了34分，在20投 14中、7成的命中率下控制了比賽。 The Mavs, meanwhile, shot 30 percent (6-of-20) and barely managed to outscore Indiana’s Paul George in the third. The Mavs had 17 points in the quarter; the Pacers’ young All-Star wing had 13 of his game-high 24 points. The Mavs trimmed the lead to 10 points early in the fourth quarter, but they never made a serious run. 同時在此節，小牛20投6中，僅僅3成的命中率只攻下17分，而 且完全無法阻止Paul George的攻勢，在他今天所得的本季新 高24分中，有13分來自第三節。 雖然小牛在第四節曾一度將比數追進到只差10分，但仍無法把 握這個機會。 Dirk Nowitzki scored 21 points on 10-of-20 shooting, but this was otherwise a dreadful offensive night for Dallas against the NBA’s stingiest scoring defense. It was the first time the Mavs failed to score at least 80 points since a Dec. 14 loss to the Toronto Raptors. Dirk本場20投10中，攻下21分，但除了他之外大家都陷入得分 荒，這是本季自12月14號輸給暴龍後，小牛得分少於80分。 The Mavs were physically overmatched against the bigger, stronger Pacers all night. Indiana had a 55-34 rebounding advantage and a 50-34 edge in points in the paint. What it means: The Mavs aren’t shaving on this homestand. More importantly, they didn’t make up any ground on the Los Angeles Lakers, who lost in Milwaukee. Dallas (35-37) is a game and a half behind the eighth-place Lakers and a game behind the Utah Jazz, who were idle Thursday. 小牛在禁區的身體對抗完全遭到壓制，以34籃板遠遠落後溜馬 的55籃板，以及34對50的禁區得分。 小牛無法在本場比賽上剃掉鬍子了，更重要的是，他們無法把 握今天湖人輸給了公鹿的機會，小牛現在35勝37敗，以1.5場勝 差落後湖人，以及1場勝差落後今天沒有比賽的阿爵。 --
