以第四節的改變，大略節錄翻譯…
This one really hurt for the Bulls, Sunday's 86-84 Cleveland Cavaliers
victory to even the conference semifinal series at 2-2.
公牛在G4輸掉，非常可惜，本來公牛很有機會以3-1擴大領先。
Not because LeBron James beat them with a 21-foot corner buzzer beater on an
inbounds play with 1.5 seconds left after a frantic Bulls rally from six
behind with two minutes remaining.
詹皇從21呎處的角落，用高難度投射結束比賽，成了G4的結局。這讓公牛隊最後兩分鐘的
猛力反彈，更顯得令人惋惜。
“It was a tough shot,” agreed Derrick Rose, who tied the game on a twisting
drive with 9.4 seconds remaining and scored 31 points.“Jimmy (Butler)
pushed him to the corner; he got a chance to adjust his body, square up. Hell
of a shot. This game is (now) already over. Just enjoy your (Mother's) day
with your mom, with your parents and just look forward to battling and
competing again the next time we play.
對於最後9.4秒追平比數，84-84，全場拿下31分的Rose，以及專防詹皇的Jimmy倆人而言，
只能專心與母親度過佳節，然後再次放眼G5的客場征戰。
“When you lose on the last shot there's nothing you can do about it,” said
Rose.“He hit a great shot; he's a hell of a player. You’ve just got to
make sure if we are in that position again make sure we force him out a
little more or make someone else get the ball.”
Rose表示，對於防守詹皇的策略，我們只能迫使他傳球，詹皇是個想投就能投的好手，我
們必須盡可能的壓迫詹皇傳球。
G4最後關鍵時刻回顧：
Cavs coach David Blatt madly calling three times for a timeout after Rose's
basket to make it 84-84 with 9.4 seconds remaining. Finally, assistant
Tyronn Lue grabbed Blatt and pulled him back to the bench because the Cavs
had no timeouts. They actually had just used three in a row to get the ball
inbounds, which led to a James offensive foul with 18.8 seconds left to give
the Bulls one more chance. If the officials had seen the timeout call—and
it's difficult to believe all three missed it—the Bulls would have gotten a
free throw and possession to probably end the game; …
1. 騎士菜鳥教練，很有可能在最後關頭，因為過量使用暫停，而促使公牛隊獲得額外的
罰球機會，並且擁有球權，隨後將比賽逆轉成功。當然，一切因為騎士助理教練Lue的阻
止，以及三位裁判的忽視，而逃過一劫。
Rose's incredible crossover blowing by Iman Shumpert and then beating
James at the basket for the tie and what looked like overtime; …
2. Rose最後一擊扳平84-84，大家幾乎都準備好打延長賽了。
James driving through the ignored timeout call, dribbling full court while
holding Butler off with his left hand and then turning toward the basket,
where his shot was knocked away by Joakim Noah as James screamed for a foul.…
3. 最後反擊時，詹皇向菜鳥表示，擦掉戰術，給我該死的球，接下來的大家都知道結果
了。
Even with Pau Gasol out with a hamstring strain, this was a game the Bulls
could not have lost, should not have lost, really had no business losing in
what should certainly have a been a 3-1 series lead returning to Cleveland
for Game 5 Tuesday. …
4. 芝加哥球迷們，都感受到以3-1的方式，前去騎士客場。在G4結束前，芝加哥不認為自
己會輸掉這場比賽。
“Going into the fourth we had a good margin,”noted Gibson of the 68-61
lead and by 11 a minute earlier.“We just blew it. We had a chance. The way
it was going we had a good lead going into the fourth quarter. …The Bulls
then added another 24-second clock violation a minute later and suddenly it
was a tie game with nine minutes left, an opportunity gone availing.
5. 當公牛隊以68-61進入第四節時，公牛隊全體成員，都深信可以拿下G4的勝利，但是，
他們搞砸了。半場失誤，24秒進攻違例，這些都害慘了公牛隊。第四節的開始，場上氣氛
明顯的改變，都帶給公牛隊不安與壓力。
“Pau, the way that he scores, just his presence on the floor, the way that
he shots the ball, rebounds the ball, is huge,” Rose noted. “But I think
the guys who stepped in did their jobs and they played well. We lost the
game, for sure, but I love our mentality. The way the guys were talking in
the locker room; we know we had the opportunity to put them away and we didn’
t. I’m not concerned at all. I think we’re a quick learning team. It hurts
now knowing we had a couple of chances. The game is over with and we’ve just
got to chalk this one up and make sure we’re prepared next time.”
最後，Rose表示，Gasol的存在，對G5以及整個系列賽，在進攻端與防守端的貢獻，是無
庸置疑的最佳人選。但Rose更欣慰有許多隊友，在Gasol不在時，都能跳出來一起彌補這
個缺口，這讓公牛的球員們，更緊密的結合在一起。在更衣室裡，大家都知道失去G4的遺
憾。但我們團結至上，我們將迅速吸取失敗的經驗，前往G5。
公牛 V.S. 騎士 G5 還有得打...
Gasol會是最大的一顆彩蛋嗎？
