L: What a game! I like playing man-to-man defense¹, while I can keep my guy from scoring.

L: 多精彩的比赛！我喜欢这种一对一的防守赛，这样我可以阻止对手得分。

M: Yeah! If we had been playing zone defense, I don't think we would have beaten them by so much.

M: 是啊！如果我们当时打区域联防，就不会赢他们那么多了。

L: We might only have tied, and then gone into overtime².

L: 我们顶多只能打个平手，然后进入加时赛。

M: But I knew we were going to win by intuition³.

M: 但我凭直觉就知道我们会赢。

L: Really?

L: 真的吗？

M: Well, their play was too loose. They should have played a tighter game. Their defense seemed confused, uncoordinated.

M: 是啊，他们的防守太松懈了。盯人应该盯紧一点才对。他们的防守阵容一片混乱，而且不够默契。

L: That's true. Let it be, we won the game and really beat them.

L: 那倒真是的。管它呢，反正我们已经赢了，也真正打败了他们。

M: Do you want to practice still more next Sunday?

M: 下周日你想加强训练吗？

L: Next Sunday? Okay. You can teach me how to hit the ones from inside the key.

L: 下周日？好啊。你可以教我如何在篮板下投球。

M: You can perhaps help me improve my dribbling⁴ skills, too.

M: 你也可以教我如何运球。

L: Sounds good. See you!

L: 听起来不错。再见！

M: Be there, or be square.

M: 不见不散！
