전망 [ 4/19 vs Regular - Season Finale Match Magic Preview ] - Game Start AM 8:00

[HEAT!Shaq32]

The Miami Heat are focused on defending their NBA championship, not on their regular-season finale with Orlando. The Magic, meanwhile, have a lot to gain in their final contest.

내일 마이애미는 플레이오프에 초점을 두고 마지막경기를 펼치겠지만, 올랜도는 굉장히 열심히 마지막 경기를 치룰것이다.

Orlando tries to improve its chances for a higher seed on Wednesday when it hosts the Heat, whose starters will likely see reduced time.

올랜도는 동부지구 7위자리를 차지하기 위해 열심히 뛸것이다.

The Magic (39-42) are headed back to the playoffs for the first time since 2002-03, when they lost to Detroit in seven games in the first round.

올랜도는 2002-2003 시즌이후에 처음으로 플레이오프에 진출하게 됬는데, 그 당시 디트로이트와 1라운드에서 7차전까지 가는 접전을 펼쳤지만 패했다.

They are currently in the eighth spot in the Eastern Conference, which would earn them another meeting with the Pistons, but a recent surge has them in contention for the seventh seed.

그들은 지금 동부지구 8위인데 만약 지금 플레이오프에 이대로 진출하면 디트로이트와 맞붙게 된다. 그렇지만 그들은 7위를 노려볼수도 있다.

Orlando has won three straight games and five of its last six, including a 95-89 victory over the Washington Wizards on Tuesday. The Magic can take the No. 7 seed with a victory over Miami combined with a Washington loss to Indiana on Wednesday.

올랜도가 내일 마이애미에게 승리를 거두고 워싱턴이 인디애나에게 패하면 올랜도는 7위가 된다.

"From a professional standpoint, it's very rewarding and gratifying to play in April and have these games mean something,'' said Magic guard Grant Hill, who scored 13 points. "Just six weeks ago, it didn't look like we were going to get in. We focused, we got serious, we started playing with a purpose and we put it together.''

"열정적으로 플레이한 덕분에 우린 4월에 좋은소식을 접하게 됬어요, 6주전만 해도 우리가 플레이오프에 간다는걸 아무도 생각하지 못했어요, 그래서 우린 심각하게 생각했고, 다함께 플레이오프에 진출하기 위해 열심히 뛰었습니다." 라고 올랜도 매직의 그랜트 힐이 말했다.

Hedo Turkoglu scored 26 points Tuesday and Dwight Howard recorded 17 points and 12 rebounds, but the Magic lost backup center Darko Milicic to a sprained right ankle. He'll have an MRI on Wednesday and his status is uncertain for the playoff opener this weekend.

화요일에 히도 터코글루는 26점, 드와잇 하워드는 17점 12리바운드를 기록했지만, 백업 센터 다르코 밀리시치는 오른쪽 발목에 부상을 당했다. 밀리시치는 플레이오프가 시작되는 첫주에 경기를 뛰지 못할것이다.

Staying healthy is the top priority for Miami (44-37), which has wrapped up the fourth seed in the Eastern Conference and is now simply waiting to see whether it will meet Chicago or Cleveland in the first round. The Heat defeated the Bulls in six games in the opening round last season en route to their first NBA title.

4위가 확정된 마이애미는 지금 시카고 or 클리블랜드를 기다리고 있다. 히트는 지난 시즌 1라운드에서 불스에게 6차전에서 승리를 거두었다.

"Coach has really gotten us focusing on things we need to try to work on right now to face whoever we're going to play in the playoffs,'' Heat swingman Eddie Jones said. "Don't get it wrong. We know we have a game (Wednesday) night in Orlando, but we also know the fact that the playoffs are a totally bigger stage and we have to be ready for it.''

"우리가 플레이오프에서 누구를 만나든지간에 코치는 우리가 좋은방향으로 갈수있게 지도해 주고 있습니다. 걱정하지 않습니다. 우린 수요일밤 올랜도와 경기를 갖지만, 전체적으로 큰 무대인 플레이오프를 준비하게 될 경기로 생각할겁니다." 라고 에디존스가 말했다.

Miami had 14 players available at practice Tuesday, with the exception of James Posey, who sprained his left wrist and shoulder in Monday's 91-89 defeat to the Boston Celtics. Posey is expected to be ready when the playoffs begin.

마이애미는 화요일에 제임스 포지를 제외한 14명의 선수가 연습을 했다. 포지는 지난 보스턴전에 왼쪽 손목과 어깨가 다쳤다. 그러나 별 문제가 없는 부상이었고, 포지는 내일 경기는 뛰지 않을것이고, 플레이오프를 준비할것이다.

Miami's top two scorers, Dwyane Wade and Shaquille O'Neal, have both battled significant injuries this season and will likely see little time Wednesday, but coach Pat Riley wouldn't specify who will be on the court.

다이나믹 듀오는 올시즌 매직과의 경기에서 같이 뛴적이 없었지만, 팻 라일리는 내일 그들이 출전할지 확실히 말하지 않았다.

"What's important is getting ready for the playoffs, getting them healthy and conditioned and mentally ready and focused for the playoffs,'' Riley said. "That's one of the reasons they were on the bike before practice today and on the bike after practice. ... They may. They may not.''

"플레이오프를 준비하는것이 가장 중요하고, 우리가 건강하고, 정신적으로도 좋은상태를 만들어 플레이오프에 초점을 맞출겁니다." 라고 팻 라일리가 말했다.

Concluding their regular season on the road - where they are 17-23 this season - will be good playoff preparation for the Heat. Miami won't have home-court advantage in the first round because its record is worse than the Bulls and the Cavaliers.

히트의 올시즌 원정경기 기록은 17승23패이다. 중요한건, 마이애미는 플레이오프에서 홈어드벤티지를 획득하지 못했다.

The Magic have won all three meetings in the season series.

매직은 올시즌 히트에게 패한적이 없다.
