4.一篇短文

Isaiah who? Why Kyrie is Boston's new king of clutch time. Kyrie Irving has morphed into Boston's clutch-time superhero
以赛亚是谁？为什么凯里是波士顿新的关键时间之王？凯里欧文已经变成波士顿的关键时刻超级英雄。

What is it about the fourth quarter for Irving?
对于欧文来说第四节是什么样子？

"Pretty simple: It's winning time, man," Irving said. "Been doing it for a few years in the league in the fourth quarter. Just doing whatever is needed to get the win."
很简单，（第四节）是取胜的时间。

It seemed unlikely that anyone could **rival ** Thomas' fourth-quarter production any time soon. So even though Irving arrived with a reputation as one of the league's most clutch players, it was fair to wonder if he could carry the Celtics late in games in the same way that Thomas did.
能很合理地怀疑他是否能够带领凯尔特人走得更远，就像托马斯所做的那样。

Irving isn't scoring with quite the same volume as Thomas did last year, but Irving has been maybe more efficient and has only cemented his own reputation as one of the league's best late-game players.
欧文的得分没有托马斯去年的多。但是他更加有效率，巩固了他是联盟最佳后程球员之一的名声。

Irving isn't scoring quite as much as Thomas or Westbrook. He's averaging 7.3 points per game in the fourth this year, the fourth-best mark in the league, but he's doing it in fewer minutes than Thomas did (Irving is averaging only 7.3 fourth-quarter minutes per game). And it's when he's scoring: Irving's production is coming largely in the final five minutes, especially in close games.
欧文不想托马斯和维斯布鲁克得分那么多。他第四局场均7.3分，联盟第四好。但是他取得这个成绩所花费的时间比托马斯短。
欧文的产出多数在最后五分钟，尤其是在实力接近的比赛中。

It hasn't mattered what opposing defenses have thrown at Irving; he has found a way to dominate, especially when it matters most.
不管什么样的对抗防守让欧文面对，他都能找到一种方式来统治，尤其是及其重要的时候。
