火箭慘敗告別本賽季 魔登組合或就此解體

With the Houston Rockets' season finally over after a 114-81 loss to the Golden State warriors, the truth was finally uttered in the locker room.

在以81比114大比分輸給金州勇士隊之後，休斯頓火箭隊的這個賽季終於結束了，而一些事實則最終在更衣室中公諸於衆。

"The season from the beginning wasn't going our way," James Harden said. "We had too many distractions, a bumpy road this entire season."

詹姆斯·哈登說：“本賽季一開始我們就沒有按照我們的方式去打球。我們有太多的干擾，整個賽季就像一條崎嶇不平的路。”

A team with fantastic chemistry in Golden State won the first-round series 4-1. Klay Thompson led the way with 27 points. The Rockets played the Warriors without Curry four times this season, winning just once. Harden was the only offense for the Rockets, scoring 35 points on 12-of-23 shots from the field. The Rockets' star guard was alone, very alone on the offensive end in noisy Oracle Arena.

充滿奇妙化學反應的金州勇士隊以4比1的大比分贏得了首輪系列賽。克雷·湯普森本場拿下27分。火箭隊本賽季與缺少庫裏的勇士共交手過4次，但只贏下了1場。哈登是今天火箭隊唯一的一個進攻火力點，他23投12中拿下35分。在嘈雜的甲骨文球場，這位火箭隊的明星後衛在進攻端顯得很無助，非常無助。

Dwight Howard, potentially playing his last game with the Rockets, finished with eight points and 21 meaningless rebounds, missing 10 of 13 shots. Trevor Ariza, dreadful in this series, missed 7 of 8 shots, including all seven of his 3-point attempts. Jason Terry, the man who guaranteed a victory in Game 5, missed all seven of his shots.

德懷特·霍華德，在有可能是他爲火箭隊效力的最後一場比賽中，拿下8分和毫無意義的21個籃板，13次出手投丟了10次。在這輪系列賽中表現糟糕透頂的特雷沃·阿里扎，本場比賽8次出手投丟了7球，其中3分出手7次無一命中。那個賽前保證拿下第五場比賽的賈森·特里本場比賽更是7投全失。

So where was the other offense for the Rockets? Well, Michael Beasley, the late-season signing by GM Daryl Morey, finished with 11 points, but needed 13 shots to do it.

那麼火箭隊的其他進攻點呢？恩，邁克·比斯利，這位總經理莫雷在賽季尾聲階段簽下的球員，本場比賽拿下11分，不過他爲此出手了13次。

The chemistry between Howard and Harden disintegrated over the course of the season; Howard, dismayed with not getting the ball enough, and Harden, not trusting in what the center could do.

而霍華德與哈登之間的化學反應在整個賽季都是分裂的。霍華德因爲沒有足夠的球權而沮喪，哈登則是不信任這名中鋒（霍華德）的表現。

Now, it's over with. Howard will become a free agent this summer, seeking a big-money contract he likely won't receive from the Rockets.

現在，一切都結束了。霍華德將會在這個夏天成爲自由球員，去尋求一份他可能不會在火箭隊能得到的大額合同。

Most in the locker room didn't make a plea for the center to return next season.

而更衣室裏的大多數人都沒有請求這名中鋒於下賽季回到球隊。

"I mean, ultimately it's his decision," Harden said. "But you know obviously we love Big Fella here and I guess he'll go back with his family and figure it out."

“我要說的是，這最終是他自己的決定。”哈登說。“但是你們很清楚，我們愛這個大傢伙，我想他會和他的家庭回來的，並解決好這些問題。”

Howard declined to talk about his future and didn't respond when asked whether he would speak with his teammates about returning.

霍華德拒絕談論關於他的未來的問題，並且當被問到他是否會和隊友們談論迴歸的事宜時，他也沒有作出迴應。
