Staples Center, Los Angeles , CA
A recent visit from an old interconference rival didn't go so well for the
Los Angeles Lakers. They're hoping a game against another Eastern Conference
nemesis turns out better.
前次湖人對上來訪的東區世仇時表現得差強人意。他們期待著這場面對另一支東區冤家的
比賽能讓他們扳回一城。
The Lakers look to bounce back from their worst home loss of the season on
Friday when they host the Philadelphia 76ers.
在主場慘敗後,他們希望星期五對上七六人的比賽能讓士氣從谷底回升。
Los Angeles (19-11) had won four straight and 10 of 12 before a 110-91 loss
to the NBA-best Boston Celtics on Sunday. The Lakers wore short shorts and
throwback uniforms, a reminder of their three NBA finals matchups with Boston
in the mid-1980s.
在星期日以91比110敗給超賽前,湖人拿下了四連勝,且贏了最近十二場比賽中的十場。
那天湖人穿的是性感短褲與老款球衣,讓人想起八零年代中期與塞爾提克隊的那三次總冠
軍決賽。
The "Showtime" Lakers took two of those series, but couldn't stay close with
the 2007-08 Celtics, who held Los Angeles to a season-worst 35.4 shooting
percentage from the field.
"We just came out flat. We didn't have energy out there," center Andrew Bynum
said. "It started in shoot-around, guys didn't really take it too seriously.
We have to come out there with more energy than that."
球風華麗的湖人那時拿下了兩次系列賽,今年卻難望超賽項背。後者的防守讓湖人全場命
中率掉到三成五,本季最低。“我們彷彿洩了氣。在場上我們就是提不起勁,”霸男說道
(居然變成第一發言人了)。“一開始球就被丟過來又射過去,大家好像都隨便打。我們
得拿出更多精神專注在場上。”
Los Angeles will try to rebound against Philadelphia, a team the Lakers also
faced in three NBA finals in the 1980s, winning twice. They beat the Sixers
106-101 on the road Dec. 21, when Bynum scored 24 points to lead four Lakers
with at least 19.
湖人將嘗試藉由籃板掌握對上七六人的比賽。雙方也曾在八零年代的冠軍系列賽對上三次
,湖人拿下兩回(世仇會多好像不是沒有道理)。湖人曾在十二月的客場之旅以106-101
擊敗七六人,那場霸男拿下二十四分帶領湖人一度領先至十九分(?)。
This time, though, the Lakers will be without their second-leading scorer and
rebounder. Lamar Odom, who's averaging 14.1 points and 8.9 rebounds per game,
was suspended for one game without pay after committing a flagrant foul on
Boston's Ray Allen on Sunday.
The Lakers' frontcourt is already missing Chris Mihm, who will miss three to
four weeks due to ankle inflammation. They may also be without Vladimir
Radmanovic, who twisted his ankle during practice on Thursday and is
questionable for this contest.
然而這回隊上第二得分點歐多畝因星期四的惡意犯規被禁賽,前場老是實實虛虛的湖人岌
岌可危。小明因為沒有定時吃阿鈣得休養三到四週,狼人又在星期四扭傷腳踝為今天是否
出賽畫上問號。
That means more of the scoring load will fall on Kobe Bryant, the league's
second-leading scorer at 27.1 ppg. He's averaging 32.5 points over his last
four games and has averaged 33.0 in his last four against the Sixers. Bryant,
however, was held to 19 while shooting 6-for-20 from the field during the
Lakers' visit to Philadelphia two weeks ago.
於是今晚的得分重任再度落在老大身上。(歌功頌德歌功頌德) 不過兩週前對上七六人的
客場比賽老大卻表現得不太理想,投二十中六全場只拿下十九分。
While no one will confuse this year's version of the Sixers (14-18) with
their dominant teams of a quarter-century ago, Philadelphia has won four of
six since its loss to the Lakers, and is 2-2 so far on its six-game road trip
against Western Conference teams.
雖然今年的七六人不能跟過往那支傳奇勁旅相提並論,他們在輸給湖人後的六場比賽中贏
了其中四場,並在目前的客場之旅中從西區強敵拿下兩勝兩敗打平的成績。
Despite posting their second-highest point total of the season, the Sixers
lost 110-107 at Utah on Wednesday. Philadelphia's 93.5-point average is among
the five lowest in the NBA.
即便奮力拿下本季至今全場第二高分,星期三七六人對阿爵時還是以107-110落敗。93.5
的場均聯盟倒數第五。
While his team has struggled to score, Andre Iguodala hasn't. The swingman is
averaging 24.3 points in the Sixers' last six games
"Andre's been playing this way. Shooting his jump shot a little better,
getting to the basket more, just doing things like that," 76ers coach Maurice
Cheeks said.
Iguodala had one of his most productive games as a pro against Los Angeles on
March 9, scoring 31 and grabbing 8 rebounds in a 108-92 Philadelphia win.
That victory was the only one for the Sixers in their last four meetings with
the Lakers.
相較於他的隊友,小AI在得分時顯然不那麼吃力。最近六場比賽這位搖擺人場均24.3分。
“他最近的打法就是跳投好好投,多切籃下,差不多就醬(這不是廢話嗎)”七六人教練
臉頰男說道。小AI在去年三月對上湖人時打出生涯代表作,三十一分八籃板最終七六人以
108-92贏了湖人,但這也是他們最近四次對上湖人唯一贏的一場。
