all we want is a chance, no matter how small it may be
别以为火箭没戏了(2009-05-11 14:34:53)标签：巴蒂尔 火箭 nba 季后赛 湖人 姚明 体育当大家都以为火箭没戏的时候，我们用出色的表现震惊了篮坛。在得知火箭最佳球员、球队领袖姚明受伤赛季报销后不到24小时，大家都认为我们没有机会再在这个系列赛中取胜。湖人在第三场比赛中击败了我们，现在没有了姚明，火箭赢球的希望就更加渺茫了。那些并非真正支持火箭的人也开始关心起我们将作何反应。那些人根本不了解我们球队。我们队员个个都是斗士，我们不喜欢被人看扁，认为我们在逆境面前无法赢球。这是我职业生涯中最值得骄傲的一场胜利。毫无疑问，湖人的才华、实力、运动天赋都要胜过我们。对我们来说，这意味着我们需要更加努力、更加团结，以弥补我们天赋和实力的不足。
我不知道有多少球队会像我们今天这样回应(质疑)。看看今天的板凳席，不能出场的球员的年薪加在一块有4000万美元，他们是穆托姆博、麦蒂和姚明。没有哪支球队在失去这么多主力的情况下依然能够打得那么好，并且击败联盟中最好的球队。不可能。
我很高兴在比赛的最后时刻能够投中几个关键的三分，帮助球队锁定胜局。姚明缺阵，我们最好的对策就是多投三分，如果需要投40个三分，那我们就会投40个（除非你折断我的胳膊）。我不知道如果我们是否可以赢得这个系列赛，因为湖人太优秀，但我直到我们将战斗到最后一刻，我们至少还有机会。像我们这样的球队，需要的只是一个机会，再小都无所谓。
火箭加油，
肖恩

Just when you thought that you could write off the Houston Rockets, we give a performance that shakes up the basketball world. Less than 24 hours after hearing our best player and leader, Yao Ming, will miss the rest of the playoffs with a foot fracture, most people did not think that we had a chance to even win another game in this series. The Lakers beat us handily in game 3 and without Yao, the chances of success were slim. People who did not really follow our team had already made up their minds on how this team would react. Those people don't know our team. We are a team of fighters, who don't like to be told that they can't win because of adversity. I am as proud of this win today as I have ever been of a win in my professional career. There is no question that the Lakers are more talented than us, they are bigger and more athletic. For us, those facts do not mean much other than the fact that we know we have to compete harder and be more of a team to make up for our lack of talent and athletic shortcomings.
I don't know how many teams would have responded like we did today. When we looked over on the bench today, there was over 40 million dollars of salary in street clothes between Dikembe, Tracy, and Yao. You could not find another team in the entire league that could lose that much and still be competitive and take down one of the best teams in the NBA. No way.
I was happy to be able to finally hit some three pointers to help my team win. The best way to make up for the absence of Yao is to shoot more three pointers, if it takes 40 three pointers, then we will shoot 40 three pointers (you don't need to twist my arm!). I don't know if we can win this series, the Lakers are very good, but I do know that we'll compete to the final buzzer and that will give us a chance at least. With a team like we have, all we want is a chance, no matter how small it may be.
Go Rockets,
Shane
