Ime Udoka: Win Over Thunder 'Shows Growth On Our Part'

The Houston Rockets defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder 119-116 on Sunday
to pull within a half-game of first place in the Western Conference.
The Rockets are 15-6 and avenged a 126-107 loss to the Thunder in early November
. The two teams are atop the West standings and are also the NBA's
two highest-ranked defenses.

休士頓火箭隊上週日在主場以3分差距擊敗奧克拉荷馬雷霆，拿下本季第15勝（6負），
不僅距離西區第一名僅剩下半場勝差，也為球隊在上個月慘敗給OKC報了一箭之仇。
這兩隻球隊除了是西區戰績的前兩名，也是全NBA防守效率最好的兩隻球隊。

"I wouldn't say a statement [win]," Ime Udoka said. "It just shows growth on our
part. ... Just we're building on last year -- the mindset of who we want to be
going forward."

第二年擔任火箭總教練的Ime Udoka表示：「我不會說這（場勝利）是一個宣示，它只是
證明了我們從去年起的成長，以及我們在未來比賽想要擁有的心態。」

The Rockets made a 19-win improvement to go .500 last season and are on their
way to achieving Udoka's goal of reaching the playoffs.

火箭隊在上個賽季就已經創造19勝外加勝率突破5成的進步幅度，如今更是要達成
Udoka當初設定的目標，一路挺進季後賽。

"The foundation that we're laying, it's easy to see it when you're just compet
-ing," Fred VanVleet told ESPN. "But to see wins against good teams at
different stages of the season, it's a good sign that what we're doing is work
-ing. We're getting better."

老將後衛Fred VanVleet 對ESPN表示：「這是我們依靠的基礎；如果你是競爭者的話，
很容易看到這一點（指火箭隊的進步）。但是在這個球季的另一個階段，能夠見證對強隊
時贏球，的確是我們正在成功的好徵兆，（畢竟）我們的確更棒了。」

心得：恭喜Udoka時代的火箭隊，在今年的再進化！感覺他會是今年最佳教練獎的另
一個強勢競爭者，不曉得他季末記者票選時會得到多少分？
