From Chris Vivalmore of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution:
“I almost had a heart attack, man,” Teague said. “(Pierce) just won't give
up. He keeps fighting. He's a great player. He makes big-time shots. When I
saw him get the ball I said, ‘He's going to make it.' And he did. Luckily,
the time ran out.”
"我差點要心臟病發了, 老兄," Teague說. "(Pierce)是不會放棄的. 他持續奮戰. 他是個
優秀的球員. 他能投進關鍵球. 看他拿到球的時候, 我想說,'他會把球投進.' 而他做到了.
但幸運的是時間已經沒了.
Teague had the same reaction everyone watching did when Pierce shot the ball.
His teammate DeMarre Carroll had a similar reaction but also believed divine
intervention stepped in.
當Pierce投那球的時候, Teague跟在看比賽看的人都有相同的反應. 他的隊友
DeMarre Carroll也差不多, 但他也相信上天會出手相救.
“When they ran the play, I saw John Wall get the ball,” Carroll said. “I
was like, ‘Man, should I foul him or should I just contest the 3?' I know
these whole NBA playoffs have been buzzer-beaters. I didn't want the game to
end on a buzzer beater, and I didn't want Coach mad at me.
"他們跑那次進攻的時後, 我看到Wall拿到球," Carrll說. "我就想, '天啊, 我應該犯
他規還是去防守三分球?' 我知道整個季後賽已經有很多壓哨球了. 我不想讓比賽結束在
一個壓哨球上, 我不想讓教練對我發飆.
“John Wall handed it off, and I chased him. By the time I turned around I
saw Paul Pierce shooting the ball, and I was about to cry. I said, ‘Not
again.' It went through, but the basketball gods were on our side. They let
us get through this one.”
"John Wall那時把球傳出去, 而我追著他. 在我轉身看見Pierce投球那時, 我就快叫出來
了. 我想說, '別又來了.' 然而球進了, 但籃球之神站在我們這. 他讓我們渡過了這關."
