今天,NBA常规赛火箭队主场迎战老鹰队,火箭头号球星麦蒂在缺阵五场后终于复出,目标帮助火箭结束此前的七连败。
外电报道如下:Houston Rockets' Tracy McGrady said after the morningshootaroundthat he remains a game-time decision Tuesday night against Atlanta, reports from Houston said. McGrady has missed the Rockets' past five games, all losses, with a recurring back injury. Houston is 0-8 without its best player this season.
Shootaround 是篮球比赛中一个极具特色的术语,意思是“投篮训练”。在NBA比赛中,投篮训练赛前通常在主队的主赛场进行,主队不会和客队抢球场,如果他们要练,会在另一块练习场地上。Shoot around 是它的动词形式。
例如:I shoot around before the game to get a sweat and then watch tape of my opponent. (我会在赛前练练投篮,出点汗,然后看看对手比赛的录像带。)
