Pop's point is in the (falling) stars Web Posted: 11/11/2008 12:00 CST http://0rz.tw/7e52E By Mike Monroe - Express-News (以下時間皆為美國時間) Spurs coach Gregg Popovich knows who is going to start at point guard when his club plays the New York Knicks tonight at the AT&T Center, but he intends to keep the Knicks guessing as long as possible. 馬刺隊教頭 Gregg Popovich 知道今晚他的球隊在 AT&T 中心迎戰紐約尼克隊時， 誰將會擔任先發的控球後衛，但是他打算讓尼克隊猜越久越好。 “I have decided who is starting,” Popovich said Monday after practice at the team's complex near the Medical Center. “The chances of my sharing that with you are less than if a meteor were to strike the Earth.” 「我已經決定了誰會先發」，波波星期一在 Medical Center 旁的團隊練習之後如是說。 「但是我會告訴你們的機率比隕石撞地球還要來得低！」 (譯者按：Medical Center？不要告訴我這是球館名字…> <) (譯者再按：標題該不會是作者因為這句而想出來的雙關語冷笑話吧) Speculation on who will take injured Tony Parker's spot in the starting lineup has centered on rookie George Hill, but Popovich does have options, including veteran Jacque Vaughn and new guard Roger Mason Jr. 大多數人猜測會取代受傷的Tony Parker's 在先發球員上的工作的人是菜鳥 G.Hill， 但是 Popovich 還有其他選項，包括老將 Jacque Vaughn 和新後衛 Roger Mason Jr Vaughn has started 13 games in two-plus seasons as a Spur, including nine last season. Vaughn 過去兩個多球季在馬刺時有擔任過 13 場先發，包括去年擔任過 9 場 Mason, who started at shooting guard in Friday's game against the Heat, started nine games at point guard for the Wizards last season when both Gilbert Arenas and Antonio Daniels were injured. Mason， 在星期五對上熱火的比賽時他擔任先發得分後衛， 而上個球季在巫師隊，當 Gilbert Arenas 和 Antonio Daniels 都受傷時， 他有 9 場比賽以先發控球後衛的身份上場。 Whether he starts or comes off the bench, Vaughn's play will be vital over the month Parker is expected to miss with a sprained left ankle. Regardless of how much he plays, he also will serve as a mentor to Hill, who is just beginning his rookie season. 不論他(Vaughn)是替補還是先發球員，在 Parker 因左腳踝扭傷而預期將缺賽的 這一個月，Vaughn的表現會是相當重要的。而不管他表現得如何， 他也將會是剛開始菜鳥球季的 Hill 的曼托(希臘神；意指良師益友) “He's a consummate pro, as we all know,” Popovich said. “I've seen him operating over the years, and his mentoring of George will be paramount to whatever success he may have.” 「就像我們大家知道的，他是個完美的職業選手」波波如是說， 「我已經看過他的表現好幾年了，而不論他是否成功， 他的指導對 George 來說將會是相當重要的」 (譯者按：拜託，只許成功不許失敗好嗎？) Clean look: Spurs All-Star forward Tim Duncan, who began the season with a full beard, has trimmed down to a goatee and admits the new look is intended to change the team's luck. 乾淨的外表：在這個球季剛開始時，馬刺隊的全明星前鋒 Tim Duncan 蓄了 一臉的鬍子，但是現在他已經剃成了小山羊鬍。 他承認那是因為他希望新外表能夠改變球隊的運氣 Duncan has not, however, suggested that Popovich get rid of the full beard he has sported since the summer. 然而，Duncan 並沒有建議Popovich 剃掉那叢他從這個夏天就開始炫耀的鬍子 “Not yet,” Duncan said of suggestions he force Popovich to get rid of his beard. 「時機尚未成熟」， 當 Duncan 談到建議他強迫Popovich 剃掉他的鬍子的想法時如是說。 That will be the next step. 那將會是下一個步驟！ “I thought it was my beard. That's why I shaved. Let's keep it there.” 我想因為那是我的鬍子，所以我剃掉它了，就讓我們先保持這樣子吧。 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 第一次試著翻譯，請大家幫忙找錯或翻不通順的地方， 好險隨機選到的這篇還不是太長，拿來練習肛肛好。 然後在這裡謝謝 531 ，因為我的文章格式是參考他來的...XD -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- 我的無名小站...記載我在東京和紐約的生活... http://www.wretch.cc/blog/dsntinjp 歡迎大家來和我聊天...^^...(我是男的喲..慎入謝謝) --
