Anthony得到了24分和10個籃板,Miller得到17分7籃板6助攻 帶領著金塊在西區第一輪第 三場的賽事贏得一場對灰狼的重大的勝利. Marcus Camby chipped in 12 points and 16 rebounds for Denver, which lost by 14 points in each of the first two contests in the best-of-seven series but never trailed in this one. Camby為丹佛提供了12分16籃板 他分別在這一系列的七場賽事中的前兩場對抗中少了14分 但這次他不再重蹈覆轍 "The difference was that we got up here in the altitude and ran. Home court is a good thing," Camby said. "I don't think our guys are nervous anymore, we're playing loose and having fun." "其中的分別是我們在這個高海拔的地方重新站起來 而且快速奔跑.主場是一件很美妙的事 情"Camby這麼說著"我不認為我們有任何一點緊張,我們放開來打 而且很愉快." "The game was fun tonight. I play my best when I am having fun," Anthony added. "The first two games, I was too analytical. Tonight we played our game. It is a series now. We knew we had our backs against the wall." "這場比賽很有趣.我儘我最大的能力而且打得很愉快."Anthony這麼說著."前兩場比賽. 我想太多了.今晚我們打出自己的球風.這是一整個系列.我們知道我們能夠背水一戰." It was the Nuggets' first playoff victory since winning Game Six of the 1994 conference semifinals against Utah. Denver lost Game Seven of that series, was swept in three games by San Antonio the following year and missed the playoffs the next eight seasons. 這是金塊隊自從贏得1994年對猶他的分區準決賽第六場的勝利之後的第一場季後賽勝利. 丹佛輸掉了那個系列賽的第七場,然後隔年被聖安東尼奧馬刺三場比賽橫掃,接著錯失了八 年的季後賽. "Denver has a great tradition and a great history," Nuggets coach Jeff Bzdelik said. "It's been dormant for a couple of years, but we're going to rekindle that. ... We knew our fans would be there for us and we wanted be there for our fans." "丹佛有很好的傳統."金塊的教練Jeff Bzdelik說."這支球隊沉睡了幾年,但是我們將會重 新振作.我們知道我們的球迷會在那為我們加油,而且我們也想要為我們的球迷而表現. The Nuggets jumped out to a 23-6 lead, had a 30-18 cushion after one quarter and a 54-41 advantage at halftime. Minnesota pulled within 67-59 on a 3-pointer by Latrell Sprewell with 6:24 left in the third quarter before Denver embarked on an 11-0 run over the next 3:12 to effectively put away the game. 金塊一開賽就以23-6領先,第一節以30-18作為墊背,第二節過後以54-41結束上半場.明尼 蘇達拉在第三節還剩下6分24秒的時候Sprewell的一個三分球比把數追近到到67-59,但接下 來3分12秒裡,丹佛步入正軌打出一波11-0的攻勢拉開比數. "Denver is a great first-quarter team," Minnesota coach Flip Saunders said. "We made about three different runs but couldn't get over the hump. They did a very good job, they made us play out of character. Their whole team played with energy at home." "丹佛是一支很會打第一節比賽的球隊."桑德斯這麼說."我們打出了大概三波高潮,但還是無 法越過那座高山.他們打的很好,他們讓我們打不出自己的風格.他們整隊在主場都很有活力 Sprewell scored 25 points and Kevin Garnett collected 24, 11 rebounds and eight assists for the Timberwolves, who had won 11 straight games since a road loss to the Los Angeles Lakers on March 26. Sprewell得到25分,Garnett得到24分,11籃板,8助攻.灰狼自從在3月26日一場客場比賽中輸 給湖人之後已經11連勝. "We didn't play well," Sprewell said. "If we defend, they don't score 100 points. They were energetic and aggressive. We have to make some adjustments. We would like to get them down early (in Game Four) on Tuesday, but that is easier said than done." "我們打得不好."Sprewell說."如果我們防守,就不會讓他們得到超過100分.他們很有活力 而且很有侵略性.我們必須做些調整.我們禮拜二會在第四場打敗他們,但說得比做得容易" "We felt like we didn't do anything right tonight, we felt out of sync, " Garnett added. "Our plan was to take the crowd out of the game early, but that just didn't happen." "我覺得我們今天晚上好像什麼都沒做好"Garnett說.我們的計畫是不被觀眾給影響,但它 就是沒發生." Denver dominated Minnesota on the glass, 53-36, holding a 20-7 advantage in offensive rebounds, and handed out 29 assists. 丹佛以53-36在籃板上支配著Minnesota,保持著進攻籃板的優勢:20-7,而且傳出29次助攻. Our goal tonight was to compete with passion, togetherness," Bzdelik said. "We did a good job tonight. Everybody played very well. I like the fact that we had a lot of assists." 我們今晚的目標是帶著熱情,合作無間去競爭."Bzdelik說."我們今晚做得很好,每個人都 打得很好.我喜歡我們有很多助攻. "Denver should have confidence," Saunders said. "They manhandled us. They outrebounded us. ... We were in a Catch-22 situation - we didn't do anything defensively, but we couldn't do anything on offense, either." "丹佛應該很有信心了."Saunders說."他們動搖了我們,侵略了我們,我們處在一個擺脫不 了的情況 - 我們幾乎不防守,但同樣地我們也無法在進攻中做什麼." -- --
