Heat-Mavericks Preview
Dirk Nowitzki's performance in Dallas' latest win had coach Rick Carlisle
gushing, and the Mavericks' star is on the verge of moving up another rung on
the NBA's scoring list.
Dirk Nowitzki在达拉斯小牛昨天的胜利中表现杰出,教练Rick Carlisle也对
子弟兵赞誉有加。接下来,Dirk有机会在历史得分榜再进一步。
While Nowitzki has performed well in recent games against the Miami Heat, it
hasn't been enough for the Mavericks to earn their first win in the series
since the 2011 NBA finals clincher.
尽管Dirk在近年来对上迈阿密热火的成绩很好,但自从2011年小牛在迈阿密封
王之后,还没有在对战中取得胜利。
With LeBron James having departed Miami, the Mavericks will try to end their
six-game skid to the Heat and earn their fifth victory in six contests Sunday
night.
今年,LeBron James离开了热火,小牛有机会终止对战的六连败,并且拿下最
近六场比赛的第五胜。
Nowitzki scored 24 of his season high-tying 27 points in the first three
quarters Friday in Utah. He also made 11 of 18 shots, went 5 of 8 from
3-point range and grabbed a season-best 10 rebounds while leading Dallas to a
decisive 105-82 victory.
Dirk昨天在前三节就拿下24分,最后得到平本季新高的27分,他投18中11,三
分球投8中5,并抓下本季最多的10个篮板,帮助小牛以105-82在客场打败爵士。
"Everybody better enjoy watching Dirk Nowitzki while he's still playing,
because there's not going to be another one like him ever," Carlisle said.
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime guy and he's a total game changer."
卡帅说:"大家得要珍惜Dirk打球的时光,因为不会再有人像他一样了,一个人
一辈子大概就只会遇到这么一个能掌控比赛的人。"
Currently with 26,913 points, Nowitzki needs 34 to surpass Hakeem Olajuwon
for ninth on the NBA's all-time list. While he hasn't reached that total
against Miami since Game 3 of the 2011 finals, he did have a combined 50
points on 15-of-26 shooting (57.7 percent) in last season's two meetings.
生涯得分来到26913分的Dirk,需要34分超越历史排行第九的Hakeem Olajuwon,
尽管自从2011年总冠军战的第三战之后Dirk就不曾在对战热火时拿下这么高的得
分,不过他在去年两次对战中还是以26投15中,57.7%的命中率拿下50分。
It wasn't enough, however, to outdo former James, who totaled 81 points on
73.2 percent shooting.
不过这都不足以帮小牛拿下胜利,因为上季James在两场比赛以73.2%的命中率砍
进81分。
With James back home in Cleveland, this could prove a prime opportunity for
the Mavericks (4-2) to break their losing streak to the Heat that began after
a 105-95 win in Miami for the franchise's only NBA title.
如今James回到克里夫兰,这让小牛有机会终止2011年总冠军战以来的对战六连
败。
Already one of the top offensive teams in the league, Dallas is coming off
its best effort at the other end of the floor. The Mavericks had given up an
average of 105.6 points in their first five games before holding the Jazz to
a season-low 42.6 percent shooting.
小牛是本季进攻火力最旺盛的球队之一,不过他们昨天展现了开季以来最好的
防守表现,在前开季的五场比赛平均每场要掉105.6分的小牛,昨天让爵士的
命中率只有42.6%。
"We played better defense," said forward Chandler Parsons, whose team is
scoring 106.5 points per game. "We were all locked in and we all made an
effort that we were going to defend tonight - especially coming out in the
second half. And it showed. When we get stops like that, it fuels our
offense."
小牛本季的平均得分高达106.5分,前锋Chandler Parsons说:"我们的防守
做的更好,我们全神贯注,专心在防守上,尤其是下半场。这展现在球场上,
当我们做好防守时,对我们的进攻更有帮助。"
The Heat (4-2) rebounded from a pair of lackluster offensive performances
with a 102-92 win over visiting Minnesota on Saturday. Miami shot 52.6
percent after going a combined 40.4 percent from the field in a 108-91 loss
to Houston on Tuesday and a 96-89 defeat at Charlotte on Wednesday.
热火今天以102-92击败来访的明尼苏达灰狼,从前两场的低迷表现中反弹。
热火本场比赛的命中率高达52.6%,而在前两场分别以91-108败给休士顿火
箭、89-96败给夏洛特黄蜂的比赛中,命中率一共只有40.4%。
Dwyane Wade scored 25 points for the second straight game while shooting a
season-best 68.8 percent (11 of 16), and Chris Bosh topped 20 points for the
sixth consecutive contest with 24.
Dwyane Wade连续两场得到25分,今天他16中11,命中率是本季最高的68.8%,
Chris Bosh则是连续六场比赛得分到20分以上,今天他得到24分。
"That's why we get all the headlines, that's why we get paid the most money,
to try to come through," Wade said. "We've got to make the right play for the
team."
Wade说:"这就是为什么是球队的头牌,赚最多的钱。我们希望打出好球,为
球队突破重围。"
The Heat also had 26 assists after recording a combined 35 in their previous
two games.
在再前两场比赛一共只传出35次助攻的热火,今天送出了26次助攻。
"Guys really took it to heart that we really had to try to make the game
easier for each other, get the ball popping," coach Erik Spoelstra said.
热火教练Erik Spoelstra说:"全队看起来都很用心,并且希望让队友有更好的
发挥空间,传导的更顺畅。"
James was the leading scorer during the win streak over the Mavericks,
averaging 32.2 points - well ahead of Wade's 19.7. Bosh had 22 points on
8-of-12 shooting in his most recent game in his native Dallas.
James在这六场对战的连胜中平均拿到32.2分,是全队最高,比起Wade的19.7分
高上许多。Bosh在上一次对上家乡球队小牛时,投12中8攻下22分。
好久没赢热火了 希望明天能赢下来!!
Let's Go Mavs!!
