March 10, 2006 Pacers speed Tinsley's return Carlisle had wanted to bring guard back slowly, but Jones' injury changes plan 溜馬加快 Tinsley 的歸隊進度 Carlisle 教練原本想慢慢來，但 Jones 的傷讓計畫出現變動。 記者： Mike Wells 信箱：[email protected] OKLAHOMA CITY -- Indiana Pacers coach Rick Carlisle's plan was to work point guard Jamaal Tinsley back into the rotation slowly. 本來，Rick Carlisle 教練準備慢慢讓 Tinsley 重回原本的崗位。 As he's done so frequently in the past two seasons, Carlisle has to change those plans. 不過，正如前兩季的情況一樣，Carlisle 教練又一次改變計劃。 Fred Jones' torn ligament in his left thumb, which will keep him out the lineup indefinitely, will hasten Tinsley's transition back into the lineup. 讓 Fred Jones 進入傷兵名單且不確定何時能歸隊的左大拇指韌帶傷勢將會 加快 Tinsley 歸隊的步伐。 Tinsley has totaled 13 points, four assists and two turnovers in 27 minutes in two games since he returned from his right elbow injury, which kept him out for 15 straight games. 自右手肘傷勢復原，歸隊以來（他為此連續錯過１５場比賽），他在兩場比賽 內共出賽２７分鐘，攻下１３分、遞出４助攻、發生２次失誤。 "I thought he played well in the Houston game and he did some good things in the New York game," Carlisle said. "He's going to be an important guy for us with Freddie out." Carllisle 說：「我想他在對火箭隊的比賽中打得不錯，對尼克時也是。 Jones 不在的話，他的角色會很重要。」 Tinsley will continue to come off the bench, but he likely will play more than expected because Sarunas Jasikevicius will play some as Stephen Jackson's backup at shooting guard. Tinsley 會繼續以替補角色上場，不過由於 Sarunas Jasikevicius 必須去分 擔 Steohen Jackson 在ＳＧ的位置， Tinsley 很有可能必須多打一點。 "Sarunas has shown in the past that he's been able to play the position," Carlisle said. "His role is just as important now. Having an extra playmaker involved on the court can be a positive for us." Carlisle 說：「Sarunas 過去的資歷證明他可以扮演好這個角色。他現在 的角色同樣重要。有個能起關鍵作用的球員在陣上是件好事。」 A lack of practice time is forcing Tinsley to get into shape during games. Because of the frequency of games, the Pacers might not have a full-scale practice until late next week. Carlisle said the key with Tinsley will be not playing long stretches. The Pacers think Tinsley re-injured his elbow in January because he returned too soon. 練習時間不足逼得 Tinsley 在實戰中找回球感。由於賽程緊密，溜馬必須等到下 周才能進行完整規模的練習。 Carlisle 說關鍵是讓 Tinsley 避開過長的上場時 間。溜馬認為一月時 Tinsley 手肘傷勢會復發就是因為他太快歸隊。 "He'll gradually get back to where he needs to be as long as he doesn't get major doses of minutes," Carlisle said. "It would be great to have more practice time, but he's been in this situation before and he's familiar with it." Carlisle 說：「只要他別上場太久，他應該會慢慢重回本來的崗位。如果練習 時間能多些會更好，但是，他已經碰過這情形，他知道會有那些事情會發生。」 〔Injury update〕 Carlisle said rookie Danny Granger (flu) is feeling better, but Carlisle won't know his status for tonight's game against the Hornets until later today. Carlisle 說 Danny Granger 的感冒已經好多了，但他今天才能確定 Granger 是否能夠上場。 Forward Austin Croshere, out since Jan. 31 with a concussion, has been cleared to go through full contact workouts. It's still uncertain when he will return. 一月３１號就因為腦震盪進入傷兵名單的 Austin Croshere 已經被允許參加 正常強度的練習。不過歸隊的時間仍不確定。 〔Defense slipping〕 After holding seven of nine opponents to fewer than 90 points, the Pacers have allowed at least 91 points in seven consecutive games, including 100 or more in the past two. 在讓９位對手中的７位攻下最高９０分後，溜馬已經連續讓７位對手得分過 ９１分，最近兩場甚至都超過１００分。 Largely because of center Yao Ming, the Rockets shot 53 percent against the Pacers on Wednesday. Yao went 14-of-21 from the field and finished with 38 points. 主因還是姚明，周三火箭隊命中率達５３％，姚明投２１中１４，拿下３８分。 "Yao has been playing great for a long stretch," Carlisle said. "I thought our guys battled him and did a good job in a lot of areas, but we could have done better as a team. You give up 38, that's a lot." Carlisle 說：「姚明一直以來都打得很好。我們的球員正面迎戰而且有很多地方 確實做得不錯，但是我們全隊應該可以打得更好。你讓對手一人拿了３８分，那 可是不少分數。」 Call Star reporter Mike Wells at (317) 444-6053. ３１７－４４４－６０５３這支電話，寂寞的話不要打，想聯絡 Mike Wells 才打。 Copyright 2006 IndyStar.com.
