The Dallas Mavericks haven't stood out recently from a crowdedWestern Conference playoff field -- and with good reason: They haven'tbeaten another West contender since January.
小牛队近来一直在没有乱成一团的西部季后赛争夺中脱颖而出，原因很简单：他们从今年1月开始还没有击败过他们的任何竞争对手。
The Mavericks will look to end a six-game slide against teams in theWest playoff picture on Tuesday when they host the Los Angeles Lakers,who've lost two straight and will likely be without injured center PauGasol.
周二小牛将主场迎战湖人队，他们希望能够结束对未来西部季后赛对手们的6连败。而湖人队目前两连败，他们的中锋加索尔也很有可能无法出场。
The Mavs have won five in a row to remain only 2 1/2 games behindthe conference-leading Houston Rockets, but all five games have comeagainst losing teams from the Eastern Conference. Dallas' 44-23 recordisn't even good enough for home-court advantage in the first round ofthe playoffs.
小牛已经取得5连胜，只落后西部第一的火箭2.5个胜场，但是他们近5场胜利都是面对东部战绩不佳的球队取得。小牛队44胜23负的记录并不足以保证他们在季后赛第一轮取得主场优势。
Since acquiring point guard Jason Kidd from New Jersey before theNBA's trade deadline, Dallas is 9-0 against teams with losing records,but 0-5 against playoff teams after losses to New Orleans, San Antonio,the Lakers, Utah and Houston. Four of the five losses were on the road.
自从在交易截止日前从网队换来基德，小牛队在面对弱队时9胜0负，但是在面对季后赛队伍时0胜5负，他们先后输给黄蜂 、马刺、湖人、爵士和火箭，其中4场输球还是在客场。
The Mavs last beat one of the top nine teams in the West on Jan. 27,when they beat Denver 90-85. They've since lost six straight againstsuch teams, but will have two chances this week with home games againstthe Lakers (45-21) and San Antonio on Sunday.
小牛队上次击败西部排名前9名的球队还是在1月27日，当时他们以90：85击败了掘金。他们在面对季后赛球队时已经6连败，但是他们有可能改写这一记录，除了主场迎战湖人外，他们还将在周日迎接马刺的挑战。
In between, they host the NBA-leading Boston Celtics on Thursday.
在这两场比赛之间，他们还将与NBA战绩最好的凯尔特人在周四鏖战一场。
"We feel like, at home, we should be ready," Mavs forward Dirk Nowitzki said.
“我们认为在主场我们应该能获得胜利。”诺维茨基表示。
Nowitzki led the Mavs with 21 points in just 25 minutes in Dallas'98-73 win over the lowly Miami Heat on Sunday. None of the Mavs'starters played more than 27 minutes in the blowout -- the team's fifthstraight win by at least 19 points.
诺维茨基在周日小牛击败热队的比赛中仅出场25分钟，拿下21分，率领球队以98：73大胜对手。小牛的先发球员出场都没有超过27分钟，这场胜利也是球队第5次以至少19分的优势赢球。
"I wanted to get this team to a point where we can get somemomentum," Dallas coach Avery Johnson said. "... Things could changequite a bit in the Western Conference over the next week or 10 days."
“我想让球队向着保持势头的方向前进。”小牛主教练表示，“……在未来一周或10天内，西部的局势可能会发生很大的变化.”
Some of that change could depend on Gasol, who was healthy andscored 17 points when the Mavericks visited Los Angeles on March 2.Still, Lakers guard Kobe Bryant had 52 points in the Lakers' 108-104overtime win.
这种变化很大程度上将取决于加索尔。在他未受伤前，他在3月12日与小牛的比赛中拿下17分，而那场比赛科比拿下52分，帮助球队通过加时以108：104获得胜利。
Now that Gasol is out with a sprained ankle and not expected toplay Tuesday, Bryant said he'll have to carry even more of the offense.
现在加索尔右脚踝扭伤，有可能无法在周二的比赛中出场，科比说他将会在进攻端承担更大的责任。
Gasol only played 2 1/2 minutes before he suffered the injuryFriday in a 108-98 loss at New Orleans, as Bryant had 36 points. Bryantthen attempted 33 shots -- a season high in a non-overtime game -- butmade just 11 and had only 24 points in Sunday's 104-92 loss at Houston.
加索尔只在与黄蜂的比赛中出场2.5分钟就因伤下场，而湖人也以98：108不敌黄蜂，科比在那场比赛中拿下36分。在与火箭的比赛中，科比全场出手33次，这也是他在本赛季未打加时赛情况下出手最多的一次，但是他只命中11次，全场拿下24分，球队也以92：104客场输给火箭。
"Teams obviously can crowd the lane and go back to playing the typeof defense against us that we've seen in the past," Bryant said. "Whatwe have to do is focus on the defensive end a lot more. And I'llobviously have to shoulder more of the load."
“现在对手很明显都挤在篮下，再用我们过去见识过的那种防守对付我们。”科比说，“我们要做的就是要在防守方面做得更好。而很明显，我在那一端也要承担更多的责任。”
The Lakers, in the midst of a four-game road trip against Westcontenders, were knocked out of first place in the conference Sunday asthe Rockets extended their winning streak to 22 games. Los Angeles lastlost three straight games in late January, with center Andrew Bynuminjured and Gasol still on the Memphis Grizzlies.
湖人目前正在进行客场之旅，他们要面对4名西部强队，并且在周日的比赛中他们输给火箭，拱手将西部第一让人，并让火箭队将自己的连胜记录延续到22场。湖人队在1月后期3连败，当时中锋拜纳姆已经受伤而加索尔还在灰熊。
That skid included a 112-105 loss at Dallas, a game the Lakers lostdespite 40 points from Bryant and 56.3 percent shooting from the field.
那次连败中就包括输给小牛那场。尽管科比命中率高达56.3%，全场拿下40分，湖人还是以112：105不敌小牛。
Los Angeles has lost four straight games at Dallas and five of seven to the Mavs overall.
湖人队在达拉斯已经4连败，他们在过去7次挑战小牛的比赛中5次败北。
