Kings-Mavericks Preview The Dallas Mavericks finally got back on track following a rough start, but now there's real concern they won't even get the chance to defend their NBA title. 達拉斯小牛一度從開季的陰霾中走出來，不過他們目前面臨了可能連挑戰衛冕的機會都沒有的窘境。 If Dallas does make another playoff push, first-year Mav Lamar Odom won't be along for the ride. 而在小牛最後的衝刺階段，第一年加入小牛的Lamar Odom 將不會再歸隊了。 The Mavericks go for a 16th consecutive home win over the Sacramento Kings on Tuesday night, a day after announcing Odom's season in Dallas is done. 小牛明天尋求主場對上沙加緬度國王的對戰16連勝，而昨天小牛高層宣佈Odom本季玩完了。 After winning the franchise's first NBA championship, Dallas (31-26) opened 2011-12 by losing three straight and four of five. 拿下隊史首冠的小牛衛冕之路並不順遂，目前戰績31勝26 敗，開季就三連敗，前五場比賽輸了四場。 The Mavericks recovered from their championship hangover and climbed to fourth in the Western Conference with a season-best six-game run Feb. 8-17, but they've gone 11-15 since and are clinging to one of the final three playoffs spots. 不過小牛一度擺脫了低潮，在2月8號到17號拿下本季最長的六連勝，站上西區第四。不過之後小牛只拿下11勝15敗的成績，並且落到西區最後三個名額的爭奪戰中。 "I'm not a big watcher of the standings, but for anybody that is, it brings to the forefront the urgency of the situation," coach Rick Carlisle said following Saturday's 94-89 loss at Memphis. 教練Rick Carlisle在上一場比賽以89-94敗給曼斐斯灰熊之後說到："我不是非常在意排名，不過對於那些在乎的人來說，現在我們身處一個緊急的狀況。" Before opening a four-game trip, Dallas will try to avoid a third consecutive loss and second in a row at home. 在前往客場四連戰之前，小牛希望能避免三連敗以及主場二連敗。 The Mavericks will have to do so without Odom, who Monday was placed on the inactive list - where he'll remain for the rest of the season. Odom averaged career lows of 6.6 points and 4.2 rebounds in just over 20 minutes a game while shooting 35.2 percent. 小牛將會缺少Odom，昨天他被球隊逐出可上場名單，並且將持續到季末。Odom本季平均是生涯最低的6.6分與4.2籃板，上場時間只有20分鐘左右，命中率35.2%。 After being acquired from the Los Angeles Lakers shortly before the season - Odom would have gone to New Orleans as part of a trade for Chris Paul had the league not nixed that deal - the veteran forward has been unable to fit into Dallas' system. 在球季剛開始之前他被洛杉磯湖人交易過來，Odom本來應該是要被送去紐澳良黃蜂換取Chris Paul的籌碼，不過這筆交易被聯盟所阻止，而Odom在加入小牛之後一直無法融入球隊。 The Mavericks, who called up Kelenna Azubuike from the D-League on Monday, are not expected to waive last season's Sixth Man of the Year. 小牛把Kelenna Azubuike從NBDL叫了上來，並且不打算把 Odom給裁掉。 "I'm done talking about (Odom)," Nowitzki said following Saturday's loss. Dirk Nowitzki在禮拜天的輸球之後表示："我對Odom沒什麼要談的。" With that distraction behind them, the Mavericks can focus on extending a regular-season home winning streak over Sacramento (19-38) that began in January 2004. 在解決的隊上的問題之後，小牛希望能延續自從2004年1月之後對上國王的主場連勝紀錄。 Dallas won 99-60 in the Kings' last visit to American Airlines Center on Jan. 14. It was the fewest points ever allowed by the Mavericks, and Sacramento's 23 first-half points were a franchise low. 小牛在今年1月14日以99-68在主場打敗國王，這是小牛隊史的單場最低失分紀錄，而上半場只得到23分則是國王隊史的最差紀錄。 The Kings ended a 10-game skid in this series with a 110-97 home win March 9, but they enter this contest with just two wins in their last 11 games. 不過國王在3月9日對上小牛時終止了對戰的十連敗，以 110-97在主場獲勝，然而國王在最近的11場比賽中只贏了兩場。 They dropped their fourth in a row Sunday, 104-87 to Houston, as injuries to Marcus Thornton (bruised left calf) and Francisco Garcia (concussion) forced coach Keith Smart to give rookie Jimmer Fredette his first start since Jan. 31. Fredette finished with 17 points but was unable to contain Courtney Lee, who scored 17 of his 25 in the opening 12 minutes as Sacramento fell behind by 11. 昨天他們吞下了最近的四連敗，以87-104在家敗給休士頓火箭，他們的傷兵有左小腿瘀青的Marcus Thornton與腦震盪的Francisco Garcia，這迫使總教練Keith Smart 讓新秀Jimmer Fredette自從1月31號之後首度先發。儘管Fredette攻下17分，不過他卻沒法守住Courtney Lee，讓他在第一節就攻下全場25分當中的17分，讓國王在第一節打完就落後11分。 "We've got guys that are normally in the rotation, trying to come in, trying to play frontline teams, NBA players who are starters on other teams," Smart told the league's official website. "... But you know, you've got to fight through it and we will fight through it." Smart對聯盟官網表示："我們有一些球員想從輪替當中擠進先發名單，也有一些在其他隊打過先發的球員，我們得堅持下去，並且上場奮鬥。" Thornton could return as the Kings open this three-game trip after missing the last four. Garcia is questionable, as is John Salmons, who has missed eight straight with a sore hip. Thornton可能會在缺陣四場之後歸隊，Garcia的狀況未明，而因為臀部酸痛缺席了八場比賽的John Salmons也不確定會不會上。 Whoever is on the court needs to take care of the ball and make free throws. Sacramento has committed 41 turnovers in the last two games while hitting just 39 of 65 from the foul line. 在球場上的國王球員必須好好保護球，並且加強罰球的命中率。國王最近兩場比賽總共犯了41次失誤，同時罰 65球只進了39球。 DeMarcus Cousins has missed nine of 15 free throws during that stretch and has averaged 10.7 points over his last three since scoring a career-high 41 last Tuesday against Phoenix. DeMarcus Cousins最近的15次罰球有9球沒進，而他在上週對上鳳凰城太陽拿下生涯新高的41分之後，最近三場比賽平均只攻下10.7分。 The Kings are a conference-worst 5-23 on the road. 國王的客場戰績是西區最差的5勝23敗。明天真的不能再輸了拿出全力求勝吧 Let's Go Mavs!! -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 111.248.161.215
