Yahoo! NBA Recap 4/3 五連勝!!! - 波士頓塞爾提克 Boston Celtics

Garnett has 20 points to lead Celtics to 92-77 win over Pacers

超塞又贏了（平淡）

BOSTON (AP)—The Boston Celtics reached two milestones—matching the NBA
record for best single-season turnaround and winning 60 games for the first
time in 22 years.

超塞藉著這場勝利一魚兩吃，既創下聯盟史上反差最大的兩個球季，同時也是２２年來首
度在季賽拿到６０勝

Big deal.

了不起

“Did we do that?” coach Doc Rivers said of the 36-game improvement. “
Thanks for telling me. I didn’t know.”

「真的嗎？我都不知道耶，謝謝你告訴我～」當被問到跟上季比起來進歩３６場的勝場數
時，河流如此答覆

They did it with a 92-77 win Wednesday night over the Indiana Pacers in which
they led by at least 13 points for the last 2 1/2 quarters. But equaling that
mark doesn’t matter to them.

超塞以９２－７７擊敗溜馬，並且在第二節的一半之後就沒有讓對手追進到１３分以內，
這對超塞而言似乎稀鬆平常

“A championship does,” said James Posey, a member of the Miami team that
won the 2006 title. “That’s what you play for.”

「冠軍級的表現，這就是超塞」波西說，他在０６年曾是熱火奪冠的成員之一

Boston’s 60-15 record is the NBA’s best just one season after its 24-58
mark was the second worst. The only other team to improve by that much was
the San Antonio Spurs, who went from 20-62 in 1996-97 to 56-26 the next
season, Tim Duncan’s first.

超塞的６０－１５是聯盟最佳，不過他們上一季是以２４－５８，聯盟次差的戰績收尾。
擁有同樣進步幅度的是馬刺隊，他們在９６－９７是２０－６２，不過在鄧肯加入後變成
５６－２６

The Celtics also added a dominant player in the offseason, Kevin Garnett, who
had 20 points and 12 rebounds Wednesday.

ＫＧ以２０分，１２籃板的表現讓大家知道他準備好要打季後賽了

Boston was 67-15 in 1985-86, when they won the most recent of its 16 NBA
championships. That was The Celtics’ sixth 60-win season in a seven-season
stretch.

超塞在８５－８６年的戰績是６７－１５，那年他們也拿下第１６座冠軍盃，這也是超塞
在連續七個球季中第六次達到６０勝

“We’re well past where I’ve been,” said Paul Pierce, who played on just
three winning teams in his other nine seasons with Boston. “I’ve only won
49 games. Sixty is all good. We have a bigger picture in mind.”

「現在的超塞已經跟以前不一樣了，」皮爾斯說，他在超塞的九季中只有三季是勝場數多
於敗場數，「我之前最多也只有拿下４９勝過，雖然６０勝很爽，但是我們有更遠大的目
標」

Boston won its fifth straight and increased its Eastern Conference lead to 6
1/2 games over Detroit, which was idle. The Celtics lowered their magic
number for clinching the No. 1 seed to two.

超塞在贏了這場後把跟活塞的差距拉大到六場半，並且距離東區封王的魔術數字也只剩２

Indiana dropped into a tie with New Jersey, four games behind Atlanta, which
currently has the final playoff spot in the East. The Hawks beat Toronto
127-120 in overtime.

The Pacers were led by Danny Granger with 14 points, and Mike Dunleavy and
Jermaine O’Neal with 12 each. O’Neal came off the bench for the second game
since missing 33 straight with a bone bruise on his left knee.

Ray Allen had 15 points and Leon Powe had 14 with nine rebounds for the
Celtics.

雷槍１５分，李阿砲從板凳殺出得了１４分和９籃板（越來越猛了）

Boston hit its first four shots of the game and Indiana missed its first six
as the Celtics never trailed. They took a 35-24 lead with 7:26 left on a
3-pointer by Posey and led by at least 10 points the rest of the way.

超塞開場４投皆中，溜馬則是６投不進，超塞整場比賽都沒落後過。波西在中場前７：２
６三分命中，此時比數為３５－２４，之後超塞就沒讓溜馬追近到１０分內

“We seemed to be out of it pretty quick,” Jeff Foster said. “We have seven
games left. We’ve got to try to win all seven of them and hope Atlanta loses
some.”

溜馬的Foster說他們很早就被打爆了，並且希望剩下的七場都贏，加上老鷹多輸幾場

It was 49-30 at halftime after the Celtics held the Pacers to just nine field
goals in 36 shots. In their last home game, three days earlier, the Celtics
allowed just 17 field goals, an NBA record low in the shot-clock era, in an
88-62 win over the Miami Heat.

上半場超塞只讓溜馬投進９個ＦＧ，與他們三天前對上熱火的表現相差不遠

“I think they are the best defensive team in the league,” Indiana coach Jim
O’Brien said. “I think they play the hardest of any team in the league. I
don’t think there is that much dispute about that. That’s why they are
contenders.”

「他們無疑是聯盟中最佳防守球隊，同時也是最硬的。他們的表現沒啥好批評的，這也是
為何他們現在是奪冠勁旅之一」溜馬教練歐比王說

Boston increased its lead to 56-30 as Allen scored five of the first seven
points of the third quarter.

Then the Pacers, who lost for just the third time in nine games, finally
found their shooting touch, scoring nine straight points, capped by Foster’s
layup, to make it 56-39. Gradually, Boston regained control and took a 67-45
lead on a dunk by Kendrick Perkins with 2:50 left in the third quarter.

Indiana closed that to 79-66 midway through the fourth quarter, but the
Celtics went on an 11-1 run to take their biggest lead, 90-67 with 2:18
remaining.

下半場戰況，沒啥重要的就不翻了

“We’re preparing for something way bigger than the present,” Garnett said.
“I just don’t believe that you get to the playoffs and you wake up in the
morning and blink and all of a sudden you turn it on.”

「我們正為更大的目標努力，」ＫＧ說，「到現在我對進季後賽這件事仍反應不過來，有
時候早上起床時，你眨眨眼，然後突然想起『嘩！我們要打季後賽了！』」

Notes

The Celtics have allowed 20 points or less in each of their last nine
quarters at home. … Troy Murphy had 11 points and 10 rebounds for Indiana. …
With just one game in five days, Rivers plans to give some of his key
players more rest before gearing back up for the playoffs. He said recently
acquired guard Sam Cassell, who didn’t play Wednesday, would see
considerable action Saturday at Charlotte. Boston has two more off days after
that before playing on consecutive nights at Milwaukee and Washington.

超塞最近在家的對手已經連九節沒法單節得超過２０分（今天對溜馬不是破功了嗎？）．
．．超塞接下來的五天中只有一場比賽，河流計畫要讓主力多休息以面對即將來臨的季後
賽，他說這場沒上的外星人對山貓時將可以打個痛快。在打完山貓後，超塞還可以休息兩
場，接著才要連續對上公鹿和巫師



不好意思...今天頭有點痛
跟超塞無關的地方就省略不翻了 orz
