那些NBA聖誕大戰的難忘瞬間
The NBA began playing games on Christmas Day in 1947. This year marks the 69th time with NBA games on the holiday. Here is a look at some memorable moments from NBA Christmases past.
自1947年後，NBA每年都會安排聖誕大戰。今年是NBA聖誕大戰的第69個年頭。讓我們回顧一下NBA聖誕大戰歷史上的難忘瞬間。1961: Wilt Chamberlain scored 59 points and grabbed 36 rebounds but his Philadelphia Warriors lost to the New York Knicks 136-135 in double overtime.
1961：威爾特-張伯倫得到59分並搶下了36個籃板，但他的費城勇士隊在歷經了兩個加時賽後以135-136輸給了紐約尼克斯隊。The rebounding total remains a Christmas record and the scoring total was a Christmas record for 23 years.
36個籃板球仍是聖誕大戰的歷史紀錄，而59分的聖誕大戰得分紀錄在過了23年後才被他人所破。
1972: Nate “Tiny” Archibald of the Kansas City-Omaha Kings equaled a Christmas Day record with 18 assists in a 104-99 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks in 1972.
1972：堪薩斯城奧馬哈國王隊的“小精靈”內特-阿奇博爾德在1972年以99-104輸給密爾沃基雄鹿隊的聖誕大戰上砍下了平聖誕大戰紀錄的18次助攻。Archibald’s performance was part of a season in which he became the first player in NBA history to lead the league in scoring and assists.
阿奇博爾德爲當賽季的得分王兼助攻王，成爲了NBA歷史上第一位達成此成就的球員。The Hall of Famer remains the only player to accomplish the feat, but Russell Westbrook of the Oklahoma City Thunder and James Harden of the Houston Rockets rank among the league leaders in both categories this season.
這位名人堂成員也是目前NBA歷史上唯一一位完成此壯舉的球員，但本賽季俄克拉何馬城雷霆隊的拉塞爾-威斯布魯克和休斯頓火箭隊的詹姆斯-哈登在這兩項數據上皆排名聯盟前列。Westbrook will play against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Christmas Day this year.
威斯布魯克將在今年的聖誕大戰中迎戰明尼蘇達森林狼隊。1984: The greatest individual scoring performance in Christmas Day history came in 1984, when Hall of Fame forward Bernard King of the New York Knicks scored 60 points in a 120-114 loss to the New Jersey Nets.

金成爲了聖誕大戰歷史上第三位至少能夠得到50分的球員，其他兩位是威爾特-張伯倫（1961年的59分）和裏克-巴里（1966年的50分）。1985: Rookie Patrick Ewing (32 points, 11 rebounds) and the New York Knicks rallied from a 25-point deficit to stun the mighty Boston Celtics 113-104 in double overtime.
1985：新秀帕特里克-尤因（32分11籃板）和紐約尼克斯隊完成了25分的大逆轉，在歷經了雙加時後以113-104擊敗了強大的波士頓凱爾特人隊。This was a massive upset as the rebuilding Knicks finished the season 23-59 under current ESPN analyst Hubie Brown and the Celtics went 67-15 en route to winning the NBA championship.
當賽季，重建中的尼克斯隊在現ESPN分析師胡比-布朗的執教下最終以23勝59負的戰績結束了賽季之旅，而凱爾特人隊以67勝15負的強勢表現一路殺到了總決賽，並贏下了當賽季的NBA總冠軍，這使得這場大逆轉更具含金量。New York and Boston will meet on Christmas Day this year.
