DeRozan ran up the stairs in his escape from James, backing away wasn't very Spursian of him, but these are not the Spurs we're used to.
德罗赞踉跄着跑上了场边的楼梯，躲避着詹姆斯的进攻。这样唯唯诺诺的退却并不是我们记忆中的马刺人的风格，但这只马刺队也不再是我们所熟知的马刺队了。
Before the Knicks, the Spurs had lost eight straight, it was the franchise's longest such streak since 1996.
而在遭遇尼克斯之前，马刺经历了一波8连败，这也是球队自1996年以来的最长连败。
Though there's always a pro-Pop stat to look at, even in the bad times: San Antonio is the only team without a nine-game losing streak in the last 30 years.
即使在低谷期，我们仍能找到关于波波的积极正面的统计：圣安东尼奥是过去30年里唯一一支没有经历过9连败的球队。
In his 24 seasons as head coach, Gregg Popovich has turned around many sorry teams by recasting roster shortcomings as strengths.
在担任主帅的24个赛季里，格雷格-波波维奇多次通过调整阵容短板将球队转危为安。
Pop's superannuated midrange offense may not pull through to the new decade (They shoot the fewest 3s.). The stats are damning, the aura is lost.
波波这种过时的中距离进攻可能无法延续到明年了(三分投射全联盟最少）。球队的各项数据都很糟糕，球队的气质也不复存在。
San Antonio's tenacious reputation spans decades. When I think of the Spurs, I think of defense.
圣安东尼奥因球风顽强而享誉多年。一想到马刺队，就会想到他们的防守。
The Spurs organization used to run like a Ferris wheel. New players were added at each stop while those in their primes were at the top.
马刺的运转就像是摩天轮。新球员会在队里球员尚在巅峰的时候逐一加入球队。
It rotated season by season, cycling out the old with freshly groomed talent.
虽然随着赛季的进行，老球员会离开，但新鲜血液也会及时注入。
It's not fair to say Kawhi Leonard broke the system, but he at least disrupted it by asking for a trade.
或许把球队的更新换代的体系全部归咎于莱昂纳德，对他来说是不公平的，但是他提出的申请交易确实一定程度上颠覆了整个体系。
It's strange to see a Spurs team without direction. There's no clear next step, either this season or long-term.
看到马刺失去方向还是很令人奇怪的。他们没有明确的下一步计划，不管是本赛季还是球队长期的发展。
Part of Popovich's legend is his ability to pull teams together.
波波的传奇性就在于他有能力将球队拧成一股绳。
There's still time for the Spurs to recover, but not getting a playoffs seed would mark the official end to an era, one that was expected to conclude with his retirement.
马刺还有时间重振雄风，但是如果拿不到季后赛名额，这就标志着一个时代的落幕，届时老爷子可能也会考虑退休了。
