As the Lakers await the winner of the Utah Jazz vs. Houston Rockets series, we take a look back at the team’s impressive First Round sweep of the Denver Nuggets.
湖人队还要继续等待爵士和火箭队决出系列赛的胜者，我们可以借此机会回顾一下湖人横扫掘金的惊人表现。
What Went Right
湖人做得好的地方
• The Lakers set the tone for the entire series in their 128-114 Game 1 blowout and the Nuggets were never really able to recover despite showing flashes of their potential in the second half of Game 2 and in Game 4.
l 湖人队在第1场以128：114赢得开门红的比赛就为整个系列赛定调，尽管掘金在第2场和第4场比赛的下半场的潜力灵光一现，但他们还是没有能够从失利中恢复过来。
• The Lakers held the Nugget’s top two scorers in check when they needed it most. Although Iverson and Carmelo Anthony averaged almost 60 points during the regular season and during the first two games of the series, L.A.’s defense held them to just 31 points in Game 3 and 43 in Game 4.
l 湖人在掘金队最需要他们两名得分主力时将他们死死防住。虽然艾弗森和安东尼在常规赛及季后赛的前两场比赛平均携手砍下60分，但是湖人的防守还是成功地让他们在第3场只拿到31分，第4场也只有43分。
• Although most of the buzz before the series dealt with Denver’s high-scoring offense, the Lakers proved that they were no slouches, shooting 48% from the floor and averaging nearly 115 points per game.
l 虽然在系列赛以前大家都在称赞掘金的强大进攻，但湖人队通过48%的命中率和场均115分的成绩证明了他们并不弱于对手。
• Although the Lakers have one of the youngest benches in the league, Sasha Vujacic, Jordan Farmar, Ronny Turiaf and Luke Walton answered any questions about their playoff readiness in Round 1, combining for more than 30 points in the team’s critical victories in Games 2 and 3.
l 虽然湖人有联盟中最年轻的板凳，弗贾西奇、法玛尔、图里亚夫和沃顿以自己的表现回击了此前关于对他们在第1轮表现的置疑：他们在球队关键的第2和第3场胜利中每场都能为球队贡献30分以上。
• The Lakers dominated the Nuggets with their passing game in each of the series’ four games, with L.A. racking up nine more assists per game than their Denver counterparts. Furthermore, the Lakers averaged only 12 turnovers per game in the series.
l 湖人在这4场比赛中通过传球击败了掘金，他们每场要比他们的对手多送出9次助攻。此外，湖人队每场比赛也只有12次失误。
• Even though Denver had the league’s leading shot blocker Marcus Camby on their side, the Lakers still managed to block more Nuggets shots in the series, 6.2 to 4.8 even without a real shot-blocking presence on the active roster.
l 即便掘金拥有联盟最好的盖帽王坎比，湖人队还是在封盖方面以场均6.2：4.8的封盖领先对手，要知道他们场上球员并没有一位真正擅长封盖的球员。
• The Lakers’ successfully held the Nuggets below their season average in scoring, allowing only 101.5 points per game. While the number is still high, L.A. played clamp-down defense when it needed to both in the fourth quarter of their Game 1 victory and in the closing moments of Game 4.
l 湖人成功地将掘金的得分限制在他们常规赛场均得分以下，他们让掘金平均每场只拿到101.5分。虽然这个数字还是有些高，但是第1场比赛和第4场比赛的第4节，在需要防守时，湖人还是打出了高质量的防守。
What Went Wrong
做得不好的地方
• While the Lakers were able to stop Iverson and Anthony in stretches, they struggled to find an answer against Denver reserve J.R. Smith whose 26 point effort in Game 4 capped off a great series for him in which he averaged over 18 points a game.
l 虽然湖人能够阻止艾弗森和安东尼，但是他们并没有变法防守掘金的替补球员史密斯。史密斯平均每场拿下18分，他在第4场甚至飙下了26分。
• Although he is usually known as a stellar playoff performer, Lamar Odom had a mediocre series for the Lakers, averaging only 12 points and nine rebounds a game. Odom’s versatility should come in handy against the Jazz or Rockets though.
l 虽然大家都认为他是一名稳定的季后赛选手，奥多姆在这个系列赛中的表现中规中矩——场均12分和9个篮板。希望奥多姆的全能表现能够在对阵爵士或火箭时得以体现。
• The Lakers were outrebounded by the Nuggets by a healthy 49 to 43 margin, including 17 to 11 in offensive rebounds alone.
l 篮板方面，掘金以49：43超出湖人，而且在进攻篮板方面的优势是19：11。
• As a team, L.A. shot only 71% from the foul line—including an uncharacteristic 74% from Kobe. Although it didn’t come back to bite the Lakers in the first round, a poor shooting percentage from the charity stripe could haunt the team in later rounds.
l 湖人队整支球队的罚球命中率只有71%——其中就包括科比74%的非典型性罚篮命中率。虽然这样糟糕的数据并没有在第1轮影响湖人队，但是过低的罚篮命中率会在接下来的比赛中给湖人造成麻烦。
Best Overall Performer
系列赛最佳球员
#24 was sensational throughout the first round, following up a horrible shooting game in the series opener to launch a spectacular 49 point, 10 assist bomb in Game 2 that effectively demoralized the Nuggets for the rest of the series. In four games, Kobe averaged a team-high 34 points to go along with six assists and five rebounds.
24号球员整个系列赛的表现都非常出色：虽然第1场手感不好，但科比还是成功地在第2场比赛复苏，拿下49分和10次助攻，而这也极大地打击了掘金对剩余系列赛比赛的信心。在过去4场比赛中，科比场均拿下全队最高的34分、6次助攻和5个篮板。
Best Supporting Performance
最佳辅助球员
Pau Gasol made his Lakers playoff debut in Round 1 and he certainly did not fail to impress, averaging 22 points, nine rebounds and five assists to for a potent one-two punch for L.A. The Spaniard’s Game 1 effort—a monster 36 point, 18 rebound performance—helped set the tone for the entire series for the Lakers.
加索尔终于在湖人的季后赛第1轮亮相，他也没有辜负这次机会，为球队贡献了场均22分、9个篮板和5次助攻的数据。西班牙人在第1场中怪兽般的表现——36分和18个篮板——帮助湖人奠定了整个系列的基调。
Most Surprising Performance
最令人惊讶的球员
Shaking off a disappointing statistical season, Luke Walton proved himself as a huge X-Factor against the Nuggets, averaging over 14 points a game to go along with five assists. With Odom focusing on other areas of the game, Walton unexpectedly emerged as the team’s third leading scorer, shooting a gaudy 71% from the floor and looking like he’s finally regained the confidence he lost earlier in the year.
在摆脱了令人失望的常规赛后，沃顿证明了自己才是与掘金系列赛的X因素——他平均每场拿下14分和5次助攻。在奥多姆经历放在比赛其他方面的时候，沃顿出人意料地成为球队的第3号得分手，命中率高达71%。现在看起来他已经找回了他在今年初失去的信心。
Best Overall Play
最佳时刻
Gasol’s sky-high lob to Kobe for a thunderous one-handed dunk in Game 2.
第2场比赛中，加索尔高空传给科比，后者单手重扣。
