Heat-Hornets Preview By NOEY KUPCHAN Posted Nov 05 2010 10:49AM Since losing their season opener, the Miami Heat have been on a roll. They'll face a stiff test Friday night when they take on one of the NBA's three remaining unbeatens. 熱火輸一場之後步上軌道了，但面對不敗之師黃蜂仍是艱鉅的考驗。 Miami seeks its fifth straight victory when it hits the road to face the New Orleans Hornets. 熱火尋求五連勝。 The Heat (4-1) have won their last four games by an average of 22.8 points while holding opponents to 36.8 percent shooting from the floor, but Chris Bosh believes there's room for improvement on the boards. 熱火過去四場平均勝分達到22.8，讓對手只有36.8%的命中率。而霸王龍認為 他們還有進步的空間。 "I think we have to get used to teams missing so much. We're holding teams to a low (field goal) percentage, and that's a lot of misses," he said. "We're going to have to box out a little bit better. We have been winning by 20 points but it might increase if we give them one shot. If we clean (the rebounding) up, I think we'll be an even better defensive team." After averaging a career-best 24.0 points and 10.8 rebounds with Toronto in 2009-10, Bosh is scoring 11 fewer points and grabbing 6.4 boards per game for star-studded Miami. He doesn't seem to mind as long as the team continues to triumph. 霸王龍數據下降但球隊持續獲勝，他本人說他不在意數據。 "I don't care about numbers," he said. "The only number I care about is winning. You can have great games, you can have great numbers and be at the bottom of the totem pole as far as the league is concerned. I think I can speak for that, too. I've experienced it. You can do everything you want, you can average the best numbers, but if you don't win it really doesn't matter." Bosh isn't the only Heat star who has seen his numbers drop off. LeBron James is averaging a career-low 20.4 points. 不只霸王龍，雷霸龍也犧牲數據換取勝利。 The Heat might want to think about getting James more involved offensively Friday night. Cleveland went 8-0 against the Hornets when James scored 22 points or more, and 3-5 when he had 21 or fewer. The two-time reigning MVP missed Thursday with a deep bruise on his right shin, but expects to be in the lineup Friday. Miami routed Minnesota 129-97 on Tuesday behind Dwyane Wade's 26 points and 12-of-17 shooting. Wade knows Miami will have its hands full in New Orleans, where it is 2-8 since the Hornets relocated eight years ago. 從上場比賽得分看來，閃電俠是明天比賽的關鍵。 而熱火在黃蜂搬家之後客場比賽只有2-8的成績。 "Chris Paul is one of the best, if not the best, point guard in our league today, especially at picking you apart," he said. "He does a great job of making you commit to him because he's a scoring threat and also with the ability to throw it to (a teammate). It's not going to be an easy task at all." 閃電俠說：「保羅哥不是得分就是助攻，真是個咖。他在場上充滿威脅性！」 Paul leads the Hornets in scoring (21.3) and assists (9.0), and is adding 6.3 rebounds per game. He's led New Orleans to its third 4-0 start in five seasons. 保羅本季仍然有21-9-6的好成績，帶領黃蜂四連勝。 "We're a defensive team, we're still trying to find our identity," said Paul, who scored 25 points in Wednesday's 107-99 victory at Houston. "We're no where near where we want to be, but we know that every night we step on the court - if we defend, we give ourselves the opportunity to win." 保羅哥說：「我們是防守型球隊，如果我們防守就有機會獲勝。」 Despite the early success, first-year coach Monty Williams doesn't want his Hornets to get ahead of themselves. "It's good to start 4-0, but with 78 more games to go we're not going to be a team that allows our record to dictate how we play," he said. 蒙提教頭則認為球隊不會讓戰績影響球隊打法，因為還有78場比賽要打。 文章出處： http://www.nba.com/games/20101105/MIANOH/gameinfo.html?ls=gt2hp0021000075 輕鬆翻，大家輕鬆看。 --
