01/11 넷츠 전 리캡 - Cooling off the red-hot Nets -

[Duncan&Kidd홧팅]

제가 넷츠도 좋아하는건 잘 아시겠죠. ^^;;

일단 넷츠에서 제퍼슨이 부상땜시 빠졌다는 게 아쉽습니다. 경기 승패야 어찌됐건 제가 워낙 애지중지하는 선수라 ㅜ ㅡ 그래도 무리하지 않고 안나온게 고맙네요.

넷츠 입장에서 4쿼터 중반의 침체가 아쉬웠을테고, 스퍼스 입장에서는 경기 마지막의 득점 허용이 아쉬웠던 경기인 듯 합니다.

San Antonio 96, New Jersey 91
Duncan, Spurs Snap Nets’ Win Streak

SAN ANTONIO, Jan. 10 (Ticker) -- Tim Duncan and the San Antonio Spurs cooled off the red-hot New Jersey Nets.

팀 던컨과 샌안토니오 스퍼스가 레드 핫 뉴져지 넷츠를 식혀 버렸다.

Duncan had 27 points and 12 rebounds and Tony Parker added 18 points as the Spurs posted a 96-91 victory over the Nets, who had their season-high 10-game winning streak snapped.

던컨이 27 득점과 12 리바운드를 기록하고 토니  파커가 18 득점을 추가하며 스퍼스는 넷츠에 96 대 91 승리를 거뒀으며, 넷츠는 시즌-하이 10연승에서 멈춰야 했다.

Duncan made sure San Antonio continued its winning ways at the SBC Center. The 6-11 All-Star connected on 7-of-16 shots and 13-of-15 free throws as the Spurs won their 12th straight home game.

던컨은 샌안토니오가 SBC 센터에서 확실히 승전가도를 계속하도록 해줬다. 6-11의 올스타는 7/16 샷과 13/15의 자유투를 연결시시키며 스퍼스가 12 연속 홈경기 승리를 얻게 했다.

New Jersey trailed, 49-41, at intermission but rallied to take the lead with a 16-6 surge that opened the third quarter. Jason Kidd had four points and two assists during the stretch.

뉴져지는 휴식시간에 49-41로 뒤쳐졌으나 3쿼터를 여는 16-6 득점폭발로 리드를 가져갔다. 그 시간동안 제이슨 키드는 4 득점과 2어시스트를 기록했다.

"We weren't concerned about the streak," Kidd said. "We were just concentrating on trying to get better every time that we take the floor, and I think that we tried to do that. We had some great looks, we just didn't make them."

키드의 인터뷰,
"우리는 연승에 집착하지 않았습니다. 우린 플로워에 들어갈때마다 항상 더 발전하는데 집중할 뿐이에요. 그리고 우린 그렇게 하도록 노력했다고 생각합니다. 우린 어느정도 좋은 모습을 보여준 반면 승리하지는 못했을 뿐 입니다."

The Spurs held a 70-65 advantage to start the final period as they closed the third quarter on a 9-4 spurt.

스퍼스는 3쿼터 마지막에 9-4 스퍼트로 끝내며  마지막 쿼터를 70-65 우위를 갖고 시작했다.

Cliff Robinson's dunk cut the deficit to 72-67 with 10:56 remaining, but the Nets went scoreless over the next 4 1/2 minutes as the Spurs built a 16-point lead. Duncan scored seven points during that stretch.

10분 56초 남기고 클리프 로빈슨의 덩크가 점수차를 72-67로 깎았지만, 넷츠는 4분 반 정도동안 무득점에 그쳤고 이동안 스퍼스는 16 점차의 리드를 가졌다. 던컨이 그 시간동안 7 득점을 올렸다.

"We just came out with empty possessions and some untimely turnovers in the fourth quarter," Nets coach Lawrence Frank said. "That gave them a separation we never caught up to. We gave ourselves a chance, we just couldn't get it done at the end. We put forth maximum effort. They (Spurs) are obviously a championship team."

넷츠 감독 로렌스 프랭크 감독의 인터뷰,
"4쿼터에서 우리가 얻은 것 없는 포세션을 갖었었고 때아닌 턴오버들을 몇개 저질렀습니다. 이때문에 우리가 추격할 수 없는 격차를 만들었죠. 우린 기회를 만들기도 했지만, 마지막에서는 해내지 못했습니다. 우리는 최고조의 노력을 쏟아부었습니다. 그들(스퍼스)은 확실히 챔피언십 팀이더군요."

Vince Carter was fouled on a 3-pointer by Bruce Bowen with 25 seconds to go and sank all three free throws, closing the gap at 91-86.

빈스 카터가 25초를 남기고 3점슛을 쏘며 브루스 보웬에 파울을 당해 자유투 세 개를 모두 집어넣으며 점수차를 91-86으로 좁혔다.

"We didn't quit," said Kidd, who made 7-of-15 shots overall. "We kept playing until the game was over. You never know what is going to happen. We played hard and gave ourselves a chance."

7/15 샷을 성공시킨 키드의 인터뷰,
"우린 포기하지 않았습니다. 우린 경기끝날 때까지 계속 플레이했어요. 무슨일이 일어날지 아무도 모르는 겁니다. 우린 열심히 플레이했고 기회를 만들어 냈습니다."

But San Antonio made 5-of-8 free throws in the final seconds to seal the victory, although not one that the Spurs were particularly proud of.

하지만 샌안토니오가 마지막 수초간 5/8 자유투를 성공시키며 승리를 굳혔다. 비록 이 자유튜는 스퍼스가 특히나 자랑스럽지 못한 것이긴 하지만.

"They scored 14 points in the last 39 seconds," said Bowen, who scored nine points. "It didn't end on a high note and that's our attitude about this game right now. It puts a damper on tonight's game. We didn't accomplish what we wanted to as a team because of what happened at the end of the game."

9득점을 올린 보웬의 인터뷰,
"그들이 마지막 39초 동안 14점을 올렸었지요. 마지막엔 높은 점수를 줄 수 없고 이것이 지금 우리가 갖고 있는 태도입니다. 그것이 오늘 경기의 오점이었어요. 경기 마지막에 일어났던 일로 인해 한 팀으로서 우리가 원했던 바를 성취하지 못했습니다."

"Well, we won a basketball game," San Antonio coach Gregg Popovich said. "They helped us out because they were undermanned. They played more aggressively than we did. They executed better. They were sharper. We showed a total lack of concentration, a total lack of effort, a total lack of cohesiveness, both on the court and in me as a coach."

샌안토니오 감독 그렉 포포비치의 인터뷰,
"음, 우리가 농구경기를 이기긴 했죠. 그들이 선수가 모자랐기 때문에 우리가 이득을 봤습니다. 그들은 우리가 했던 것보다 더욱 어그레시브 했습니다. 더 잘 운영했어요. 더 샤프했습니다. 우리는 총체적인 집중력 부족, 총체적인 노력의 부족, 총체적인 응집력의 부족을 보여줬습니다. 코트에서나 감독인 나에게나 모두 말이죠."

Manu Ginobili scored 16 points and Michael Finley added nine for the Spurs, who shot 48 percent (30-of-62) from the field, including 6-of-14 3-pointers.

스퍼스의 마누 지노빌리는 16 득점을 올렸고 마이클 핀리가 9 점을 보탰다. 스퍼스는 6/14의 3점슛을 포함 48 퍼센트(30/62)의 야투를 선보였다.

Carter scored 34 points and Kidd added 15 and eight rebounds for New Jersey, which shot 45 percent (37-of-82) overall and 6-of-13 shots from the arc. Forward Richard Jefferson missed the game due to back spasms.

뉴져지의 카터는 34 득점을 올렸으며 키드가 15 득점과 8 리바운드를 보탰다. 넷츠는 전체 45 퍼센트(37/82)야투를 기록했고 3점은 6/13을 기록했다.

"They are a good team and they play good team defense," said Carter, who added six rebounds. "With them it isn't the first line of defense that you have to worry about, it's the second line of players that make it tough on you. You just have to find ways to score and be effective."

6 리바운드를 추가한 카터의 인터뷰,
"그들은 좋은 팀이며 좋은 팀 디펜스를 펼쳤습니다. 그들을 상대할때 걱정해야할 건 1선 수비가 아니고, 힘든 건 2선 수비에 있는 선수들입니다. 거기서 득점하고 효과적일 수 있는 방안을 찾아내야 해요."

Who's Hot?

Vince Carter started off strong for the Nets, scoring their first 7 points of the night and finishing the first quarter with a game-high 14 so far. The Spurs opened the game with Michael Finley guarding the All-Star guard. Manu Ginobili guarded him for a stretch, and then the Spurs put defensive stopper Bruce Bowen on towards the end of the first quarter.

Pregame

Who's Out?

The Spurs are home again tonight to host the hottest team in the NBA, the New Jersey Nets. The Nets are currently 19-12, but have won their last ten games coming into tonight's match-up...a streak that has included wins over two of the East's Beasts...the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Miami Heat. The Nets get to test their best against the West this week though, with a game here tonight, and then games on Friday and Saturday in Memphis and Dallas, respectively.

The Spurs come into tonight's game with a 26-8 record, good for the best record in the Western Conference...half a game ahead of the Dallas Mavericks. San Antonio returns home after a disappointing 91-86 loss in Phoenix on Saturday night. The Spurs have won five of their last six home games against the Nets.
