The Spurs show why the Clippers shouldn't break up their team
馬刺展示了為什麼快艇不該拆掉他們核心球員的理由 http://tinyurl.com/l72jo9s
San Antonio stole a win in Los Angeles and took the upper hand in this
series. But win or lose, the Clippers should keep their core together. The
Spurs illustrate why.
馬刺在快艇主場偷得了一場勝利，並在這系列賽暫居領先，但無論輸贏，快艇都應該

You need luck to win an NBA championship. Luck alone can't do it, but if you're
one of the top five teams in the league and there isn't much separating you
from the other four squads considered contenders and near-contenders, luck

course of fate. Sometimes you catch the breaks, sometimes you don't.
想贏得ＮＢＡ總冠軍，你得需要有好運氣，單純只有好運可辦不到，但如果你是聯盟
裡最頂級的五支球隊之一，你跟其他四支具有爭冠實力隊伍實力相差不大時，運氣就

更是如此，像是馬刺快艇的第五戰，勝負就是決定在那一瞬間；任何事都可能發生，
唯一不變的真理就是只有一隊會贏
We are a deterministic people, and we like to attribute the results of random
events to character attributes. When DeAndre Jordan lightly taps a ball in
the cylinder that may very well have gone in had he been absent, we like to
suggest its indicative of the center's basketball IQ (or lack thereof). When
the Clippers lose a heartbreaking nailbiter, we prefer to blame their
comparative playoff inexperience or lack of championship moxie instead of
chalking it up to a random event that broke the wrong way. When the Spurs win
a game like this
