Role-Players Become Difference-Makers 「四」馬難追 出處：www.nba.com/pacers 〔終場〕 END RESULT With the Pacers flat running out of guys that can make plays, there might've been a temptation to approach the guy sitting with purported nemesis Spike Lee in the courtside seats. As it turned out, however, there was no need for Reggie Miller to pull things out in Madison Square Garden. The Pacers had Danny Granger. And Jamaal Tinsley. And Sarunas Jasikevicius. And Austin Croshere. And, as usual, Jermaine O'Neal. 在幾乎沒有多的球員能夠上場貢獻的情況下，溜馬隊可能很想請坐在場邊前排敵方 啦啦隊頭目 Spike Lee 身邊的「那個人」幫點忙。還好，這次不需要動用「那個人」 來讓溜馬隊在麥迪遜花園廣場得勝。這次，溜馬隊有 Danny Granger 還有Jamaal Tinsley、Sarunas Jasikevicius、AustinCroshere。當然，一如往常的，Jermaine O'Neal。 O'Neal scored 31 but was just one of four Indiana players with season-highs as the Pacers outscored the Knicks 11-2 in the final 3 minutes to rally for a 102-96 victory Saturday night in New York. The late burst salvaged an otherwise ragged performance in which the Pacers were badly outrebounded 57-38 and suffered a 41-13 disadvantage in bench scoring. But the bench was thin because Fred Jones sat out the game with a sprained ankle and Stephen Jackson couldn't play in the second half after suffering a sprained thumb. O'neal （31分）只是「四位」創下本季個人得分新高紀錄當中的一位球員，溜馬隊 在最後三分鐘一波１１－２的衝刺讓他們週六在紐約勝過地主尼克隊。這波來的相當 晚的致勝攻勢讓籃板、替補得分通通輸人的溜馬起死回生（籃板 38-57 、替補得分 13-41 ）。隨著 Fred Jones 因傷缺賽，替補戰力大打折扣，還有， Stephen Jackson 也因大拇指扭傷無法於下半場出賽。 〔勝利代表的是〕 WHAT IT MEANS The Pacers won their second in a row and fourth in five games without Ron Artest. They improved to 14-8 overall, 7-5 on the road. The Knicks lost their sixth in a row to fall to 6-17 overall, 3-6 at home. 溜馬拿下二連勝，也是 Artest 不在的五場中第四次勝利。整體戰績進步到 １４勝８敗，客場戰績７勝５敗。尼克隊六連敗，目前６勝１７敗，主場戰績 ３勝６敗。 〔比賽關鍵〕 KEY TO THE GAME Without Granger's energy, not to mention timely productivity, the Pacers would've been in line for an ignominious defeat. Replacing the injured Jackson in the lineup for the second half, Granger was a factor at both ends of the floor. In the fourth quarter his defense may well have been the key, as three times he rotated into the lane to block drives by New York guards that appeared headed for layups. Twice those blocked shots led to fast-break points for the Pacers, precisely the kinds of momentum-changing plays that are necessary to win on the road. 要是沒有 Granger 的拼勁，更重要的是，他那來的正好的貢獻，溜馬今晚完全 是支等著輸的慘兮兮的球隊。替補 Jackson 在下半場出賽的 Granger 是在攻守 兩方都扮演關鍵角色的重要球員。在第四節，他的防守就是關鍵，有三次換防後 擋下尼克隊後衛準備切入上籃的路徑。兩次阻攻轉換成快攻得分，這完全就是客 場獲勝關鍵要素的「挫敵人銳氣，長自己威風」表現。 〔比賽過程〕 TURNING POINT After an abysmal first half, the Pacers came to life in the third quarter, taking a 63-58 lead midway through after O'Neal's second 3-pointer of the season. But the Knicks would not go away quietly and the game was tight the rest of the way, with 12 lead changes and five ties in the final 18 minutes. The Knicks appeared to grab momentum with consecutive 3-pointers from Stephon Marbury and Quentin Richardson gave them a 94-91 lead with 3:29 left but they wouldn't make another basket. 在一段很糟糕的上半場後，溜馬回神在第三節中段靠著 O'Neal 本季第二計三分球 取得 63-58 的領先（官網賽後報導影片說，這球就在 Miller 座位前面投出的．． 呵呵）。但是尼克可不會坐以待斃，比賽的末段可是打的難分難解。在最後一節半 （１８分鐘）內，兩隊有１２次互換領先地位，５次平手。尼克在最後３分２９秒時 靠著 Stephon Marbury 以及 Quentin Richardson 的連續三分球打出一波高潮，取得 94-91 的領先。但是，在那之後，他們沒有再投進任何一球。 While the defense shut down the Knicks, the offense generated quality looks on the final six possessions. The biggest came with the Pacers nursing a 99-96 lead in the final minute. O'Neal dropped a pass inside to Croshere, who put a nice up-and-under move on former teammate Antonio Davis for a layup that pushed the lead to five points with 16 seconds left. 防守也許成功守住尼克隊，但是，溜馬隊最後六次持球進攻更是精采。當中的高潮 要算是最後２２秒鐘 99-96 時打出的那一球。O'Neal 傳給空切的 Croshere，面對 著前隊友 Antonio Davis 的防守， Croshere 以假動作騙過防守者，接著轉向小拋 球，進籃得分！這球在最後１６秒時將差距擴大到５分。 〔球員表現〕 INSIDE THE BOX SCORE O'Neal's 31 points came on 9-of-21 shooting overall, 12-of-13 from the line. He added six rebounds, six assists and two blocks. Tinsley had a strong game with 23 points, seven assists and six rebounds. Sarunas Jasikevicius made four 3-pointers on his way to 18 points, adding four rebounds and three steals. Granger had 12 points, six rebounds and three blocks, all in the second half. The point totals for O'Neal, Tinsley, Jasikevicius and Granger all were season highs. The Pacers shot 45.2 percent and committed just nine turnovers. O'Neal 投２１中９攻下３１分，罰球投１３中１２外加６籃板６助攻２阻攻。 Tinsley 打出一場好球攻進２３分７助攻２阻攻， Sarunas Jasikevicius １８分當中有１２分來自於三分線外，還有４籃板３抄截。 Granger 有１２分 ６籃板３阻攻，「全都來自下半場的表現～～」。這四位溜馬球員今天的得分 全都是個人本季新高。溜馬隊命中率達４５．２％，而且只發生９次失誤。 The Knicks had dominant advantages on the boards and off the bench, but shot 37.2 percent, their starters were outscored 89-55 and they did not score a fast-break point. Marbury's 25 points, six rebounds, five assists and four steals led the way but he was 8-of-23 from the floor. Jamal Crawford scored 15 but shot 4-of-14. Richardson scored 12 with six rebounds and rookie Channing Frye had eight points and 12 rebounds. 尼克在籃板掌握以及替補球員表現上佔優勢，但是命中率只有３７．２％，他 們的先發球員得分表現不如對手（ 89-55 ）而且連一次快攻都沒有。 Marbury 以２５分６籃板５助攻４抄截領導全隊，但是投２３中８。 Jamal Crawford １５分，但是投１４中４， Richardson １２分６籃板，新人 Channing Frye 有８分１２籃板。 焦點球星　　Ｊａｍｍａｌ　Ｔｉｎｓｌｅｙ 　　　　　　２３分７助攻６籃板２阻攻，投１６中８ 默默付出　　Ｄａｎｎｙ　Ｇｒａｎｇｅｒ 　　　　　　「２９分鐘內」１２分６籃板３阻攻，投５中４，三分球２投全進！ 誰最難纏　　Ｓｔｅｐｈｏｎ　Ｍａｒｂｕｒｙ 　　　　　　２５分６籃板５助攻４抄截 場邊傳真　　Ｏ’Ｎｅａｌ 　　　　　　「過去兩場我們打得．．不算好，但是，我們已經找到方向。 　　　　　　　現在，重要的是打出穩健的表現（character）」 說故事時間　在主場，尼克隊已經連續六場失分超過１００分。溜馬隊正是 　　　　　　第六隊。而過去十三場主場比賽，溜馬是第十一隊讓尼克失分 　　　　　　超過１００分的隊伍。 　　　　　　　 　　　　　　連續兩場溜馬籃板都輸人，但是都贏球。 Ｐａｃｅｒｓ　ｗｉｎ　ｓｔｅａｋｓ　２　～～～～～～～～～～～ 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　數據比較 　　　　　　　　　　　溜馬　　　　　　　　　尼克 　　　　　　　　　　　２８　禁區得分　　　　４０ 　　　　　　　　　　　　２　快攻得分　　　　　０ 　　　　　　　　　　　１１　第二波進攻得分　２５　 　　　　　　　　　　　１６　靠對手失誤得分　　９ 　　　　　　　　　　　８９　先發球員得分　　５５ 　　　　　　　　　　　１３　替補球員得分　　４１ 球員消息 Jones 對上猶他爵士隊時左腳踝扭傷，所以今晚無法出賽 Jackson 因為左大拇指扭傷在第二節末段時離場 這已經是尼克隊 Eddy Curry 連續第二場無法出賽，因為他在練習時扭傷腳踝。 Ｐａｃｅｒｓ　ｗｉｎ　ｓｔｅａｋｓ　２　～～～～～～～～～～～ 看到那句「沒有 Artest 後已經打出４勝１負」後，我腦中竟然閃過一個 很滑稽的句子．．「分手後，我要過得比之前好！」。 這篇文章粉怪．．前後有矛盾，前文說 Granger 第四節兩次阻攻都轉換成 快攻得分，最後數據比較怎麼溜馬快攻得分只有２．． 還有，NOTEWORTHY 說溜馬前面７次輸球第一節得分都輸人，被前後文矛盾 困擾的我打開賽程一看１２月４號主場輸給西雅圖超音速，明明第一節得分 有贏人家啊．．還有還有．．STAT OF GAME 讓我花了十分鐘才看懂，原來 他寫的是尼克隊「主場戰績」 來個高手教偶 After losing the first seven games in which they trailed entering the first quarter 這句到底是什麼意思？還有 The Pacers were the sixth consecutive team and 11th in 13 games to score at least 100 points against the Knicks 中哪裡看得出是主場戰績．．刻以嗎？刻以嗎？ 各位溜馬迷，有覺得今天自己比較笨嗎╮(▔▽▔")╭ --
