Spurs-Mavericks Preview
Rajon Rondo wants another ring and knew it probably wasn't happening anytime
soon with the rebuilding Celtics.
Rajon Rondo知道如果想要再拿一枚冠军戒指，待在重建中的波士顿塞尔提克
会让他的等待遥遥无期。
When Rondo was on his way to Dallas with Mavericks owner Mark Cuban, the
four-time All-Star point guard serving as the centerpiece of a five-player
trade, championship talk dominated the conversation.
Rondo今天与达拉斯小牛的老板Mark Cuban共同现身，四度入选明星赛的他在
一波五人交易中被换到小牛，身为交易的主角，所有的讨论当然都与冠军有
关。
The Mavericks believe they've acquired a key piece to their title hopes in
Rondo, who is expected to make his Dallas debut Saturday night against a
likely weary San Antonio Spurs team following another triple-overtime defeat.
小牛相信他们拿到了冠军的重要拼图，明天他将首次穿上小牛战袍出赛，对
手是连续两场在三度延长赛落败，疲累不堪的圣安东尼奥马刺。
"To be a contender right away, there's a goal that you have in mind and I'm
dying to get a ring again," Rondo said at his introductory news conference
Friday. "I want another parade."
Rondo在记者会上说："我加入了有竞争力的球队，我的目标当然是再拿下一
枚戒指，再参加一次冠军游行。"
The ninth-year player got his first with the Celtics in 2008, and now Rondo
is joining 2011 champs Dirk Nowitzki and Tyson Chandler as part of the
nucleus of a Dallas team trying to win another title.
九年级的Rondo在2008年帮助塞尔提克拿下一座冠军，现在他们加入了2011
年的冠军小牛，将与当时的冠军成员Dirk Nowitzki、Tyson Chandler再次
问鼎总冠军。
Rondo and center Dwight Powell were acquired Thursday for center Brandan
Wright, forward Jae Crowder, point guard Jameer Nelson, a first-round draft
pick in 2015 and a second-round choice in 2016.
Rondo与中锋Dwight Powell被塞尔提克交易，换来小牛的中锋Brandan
Wright、前锋Jae Crowder与控球后卫Jameer Nelson，2015年首轮选秀
与2016年第二轮选秀。
Although he has his lowest scoring average since his 2006-07 rookie season at
8.3, Rondo is averaging an NBA-best 10.8 assists while ranking in the
league's top 15 with a 3.16 assist-to-turnover ratio.
尽管Rondo目前的场均得分是自从2006-07的新人球季后的最低，只有
8.3分，但是他平均每场可以传出10.8次助攻，是联盟的助攻王，而
3.16的助攻失误比也是联盟前15名。
He's joining a Dallas team that already leads the league with a 1.96 ratio.
而他要加入的小牛，在助攻失误比上以1.96排联盟第一。
"I view Rondo as an extremely resourceful guy with a lot of ability," coach
Rick Carlisle said. "He's a guy that loves winning."
小牛教练Rick Carlisle说："我认为Rondo是个很有潜力、很全能的球员，
并且有旺盛的求胜意志。"
With the addition of Rondo, the Mavericks (19-8) hope to be even better
offensively while improving on the defensive end. They're averaging a
league-best 110.1 points following Wednesday's 117-106 road win over Detroit.
19胜8败的小牛进攻火力强大，他们希望在Rondo加入之后，能有更强的
防守能力，小牛在前一场比赛以117-106在客场打败底特律活塞，场均得
分来到联盟最佳的110.1分。
Chandler Parsons finished with a season-high 32 points, while Monta Ellis
added 25. Parsons has hit 20 of 34 from 3-point range in his past five games
for Dallas, which has shot 25 for 55 from beyond the arc while winning its
last two.
Chandler Parsons拿到本季新高的32分，Monta Ellis也拿到25分，
Parsons在最近五场出赛的在三分线外投34中20，在小牛最近的二连
胜中，小牛的三分球投55中25。
The Mavericks, though, have allowed 107.0 points per game over their past 13.
Rondo has a reputation as a solid defender and his 1.7 steals per game are
one of the league's highest marks among point guards.
然而小牛在最近13场比赛平均失分为107.0分，Rondo的防守能力不错，
场均1.7次抄截是联盟控卫当中的佼佼者。
Now he'll try to help Dallas snap a 10-game regular-season losing streak in
this series after San Antonio (17-10) pulled out a 101-100 home win in the
season opener. Tony Parker had 23 points in that meeting, but he may not get
to oppose Rondo after missing seven of the past eight games with a strained
hamstring.
他将希望帮助小牛终止对战马刺的季赛10连败，两军最近一次的交手
是在开幕战，卫冕冠军在主场以101-100险胜，Tony Parker那场比赛
拿到23分，不过他因为腿部拉伤缺席了最近八场比赛当中的七场，明
天预计也不会出赛。
Kawhi Leonard is also questionable after sitting the past two games with a
torn ligament in his shooting hand.
Kawhi Leonard也可能因为右手肌腱撕裂缺席，他已经休息了两场。
It's possible more players may be rested after the Spurs suffered their
second straight triple-overtime loss Friday, 129-119 to visiting Portland.
They're on the verge of dropping four in a row for the first time since a
six-game skid late in the 2010-11 season.
马刺有可能会有大幅度的休兵，因为他们连续两场在3OT输球，今天
在主场以119-129败给来访的波特兰拓荒者，17胜10败的马刺希望毕
避免吞下四连败，这将会是他们自从2010-11球季尾声的六连败之后
的最长纪录。
"It's different every night (with the injuries), so it keeps them out of
rhythm and we are wearing some guys down," coach Gregg Popovich said. "Timmy
(Duncan) is a big worry in that respect and so is Manu (Ginobili)."
马刺教练Gregg Popovich说："每场比赛伤兵的状况都不一样，受伤的
球员还没找到状况，能打的却累坏了，Tim Duncan与Manu Ginobili让
我最担心。"
Duncan certainly isn't showing it, averaging 22.4 points and 13.4 rebounds
over his last five games after scoring a season-high 32 on Friday. Danny
Green, who scored 27, has totaled 52 points while hitting 13 of 22 from
3-point range in his past two.
Duncan完全看不出疲累的迹象，他最近五场比赛平均攻下22.4分13.4
篮板，今天也拿下本季新高的32分。Danny Green今天拿到27分，最近
两场比赛他的三分球投22中13，一共得到52分。
It was the first time a team played consecutive triple-overtime games since
the Baltimore Bullets in December 1951.
马刺是自从1951年12月的巴尔的摩子弹队以来，第一支连续两场比赛
打到3OT的队伍。
明天打马刺可以说是占尽便宜 希望能中止季赛的连败呀
Let's Go Mavs!!
