7. look up to

look up to 這里的意思是“admire，respect，尊敬”，比如：The students really looked up to Mr. Jones. 這些學生真地尊敬瓊斯先生。

8. Foul 犯規

9. run the floor

中文為“下快攻”，意思是“有改換進攻的能力，能跑快攻，不知疲倦地奔跑，擁有源源不斷的續戰力……”，比如：He is a very good athlete who can run the floor and jump like few others in his size. 在他這樣身材的運動員中，他是少數幾個既能下快攻又能跳的之一。

10. Now the double-team.

Double-team是“夾擊”的意思。

11. pucker up

Pucker up 這個表達的意思是“撅起嘴來”，比如：A: Helen, I've got the mistletoe... pucker up! 海倫，我拿到檞寄生了……撅起嘴來！B: Get away from me! 離我遠一點！（在槲寄生樹下可以接吻。）

這里是球賽的解說員調侃Charles Barkley，因為他曾經在姚明第一次比賽、表現不佳時說過“如果姚明能在一場比賽中拿下19分，他就親吻Kenny（另一同行）的屁股”，現在姚明依然拿到了這個分數，Charles 就該踐行諾言，所以解說員讓Charles撅起嘴來。

傳奇籃球人物 George Mikan，Elgin Baylor，Jerry West

1. George Mikan

George Lawrence Mikan, Jr. (June 18, 1924 – June 1, 2005), nicknamed Mr. Basketball, was an American professional basketball player for the Chicago American Gears of the National Basketball League (NBL) and the Minneapolis Lakers of the NBL, the Basketball Association of America (BAA) and the National Basketball Association (NBA). Invariably playing with thick, round spectacles, the 6 ft 10 in 245 lb. Mikan is seen as one of the pioneers of professional basketball, redefining it as a game of so-called big men with his prolific rebounding, shot blocking and his talent to shoot over smaller defenders with his ambidextrous hook shot, result of his own Mikan Drill.

Mikan had a successful player career, winning seven NBL, BAA and NBA championships, an All-Star MVP trophy, three scoring titles and being member of the first four NBA All-Star and the first six All-BAA and All-NBA Teams. Mikan was so dominant that he caused several rule changes in the NBA, among them widening the foul lane — known as the "Mikan Rule" — and introducing the shot clock.

After his player career, Mikan became one of the founding fathers of the American Basketball Association (ABA), and was also vital for the forming of the Minnesota Timberwolves. In his later years, Mikan was involved in a long-standing legal battle against the NBA, fighting against the meager pensions for players who had retired before the league became lucrative. Mikan died after a long-standing battle against diabetes.

For his feats, Mikan was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in 1959, made the 25th and 35th NBA Anniversary Teams of 1970 and 1980 and was elected one of the NBA 50 Greatest Players in 1996. Since April 2001, a statue of Mikan shooting his trademark hook shot graces the entrance of the Timberwolves' Target Center.

2. Elgin Baylor

Elgin Gay Baylor (born September 16, 1934 in Washington, D.C.) is a retired American basketball player who played 13 seasons as a forward for the NBA's Minneapolis Lakers/Los Angeles Lakers. Baylor was a gifted shooter, a strong rebounder, and an accomplished passer. Renowned for his acrobatic maneuvers on the court, Baylor regularly dazzled Lakers fans with his trademark hanging jump shots. He is regarded as one of the game's all-time greats.

3. Jerry West

Jerry Alan West (born May 28, 1938, in Chelyan, West Virginia) is a retired American basketball player who played his entire professional career for the NBA's Los Angeles Lakers. West has also had a successful career as a coach and as an executive. He was enshrined in the Basketball Hall of Fame in 1980, and his dribbling silhouette has long been used in the National Basketball Association's official logo.

West was a standout in high school and at college, attending West Virginia University and leading it to the 1959 NCAA championship game (of which he was named Most Valuable Player) before embarking on a 14-year career with the Los Angeles Lakers. He also played for, and co-captained with Oscar Robertson, the 1960 US Olympic gold medal team in Rome. (answers.com)
