http://nbadraft.net/2008northwestteamneeds001.asp 快速翻譯 Portland Trailblazers 2007-08 Record: 41-41 Head Coach: Nate McMillan Team Needs: SF We all know about the Trailblazers and we all know that this really isn't a lottery team. Not in terms of talent anyways. This team is about 2-3 years and a healthy Greg Oden away from being a serious contender, which points out the obvious flaws in the playoff seeding and lottery process. 拓荒者實力不僅是一隻樂透球隊，Oden的傷使球隊打不進季後賽 The Trailblazers, at 41-41, don't make the playoffs, thus putting a good Western team in the lottery, while the Hawks (37-45), the 76ers (40-42) and the Raptors (41-41) all make the Eastern Conference playoffs, thus placing them outside the lottery. Superior teams are in the lottery, thus stockpiling the Western Conference with more talented teams. 拓荒者的41勝在東區可以進季後賽，但在西區有更多強隊 If the Suns, Spurs and Mavericks weren't on the way down, who knows how gnarly the West would get with teams like the Hornets, Lakers and Trailblazers all looking like the next set of contenders. 黃蜂、湖人、拓荒者看起來會成為一組冠軍競爭者 As for the Portland lineup, there are few flaws. They are loaded with young players and potentially two All-NBA players. In the backcourt, the one spot is currently manned by Steve Blake and backed up by Jarrett Jack and Sergio Rodriguez. 拓荒者的陣容沒什麼大缺陷，PG由Blake先發，Jack、Sergio替補 Blake is a very capable guard, but not necessarily starting material, but with Jack, a scoring point, and Rodriguez, the player the team would like to see ultimately win the starting postion, the Blazers don't see PG as a position of need. Rodriguez' early jump to the NBA seems to have limited his long term potetnial to some degree. 拓荒者將讓PG三人組爭奪先發位置，PG不需要人 At shooting guard is the silky smooth Brandon Roy. The more I got to watch him this year, the more he reminds me of a Tim Duncan type player. Nothing flashy, excellent fundamentals, wins games, does whatever it takes to make you better and win games. Roy很棒很強大 I'm not trying to say that Roy is at the same level as Duncan, but Roy just strikes me as the kind of player that gets overlooked and then you look back and stare in awe at the accomplishments, kind of like Tim Duncan. 強大到拿Duncan來說嘴 Roy plays point guard in the closing minutes, and GM Kevin Prichard is said to be targeting other positions in this years draft as he feels Roy is the teams long term answer at PG. Roy打PG很好很安心，所以他是PG的答案 (噓~~) Backing up Roy is Von Wafer, the once highly touted McDonald's All American who never fulfilled expectations, and James Jones. Jones, more of a small forward than a guard, is tall and can stroke from just about anywhere. A nice situational player to have around. Again, Portland, with their hyperactive draft days, found another young international player to stash away in Spanish Rudy Fernandez, often compared to Manu Ginobili, who is ready to come over and be a factor. Rudy明年將可以補上替補SG的洞 The three spot is often cited as a weak spot in the Blazers' lineup. Funny how all three players there came straight out of high school. Martell Webster, the high schooler selected third overall a few years back, was at one time compared to a young Glen Rice. Well... that didn't really pan out. 小前鋒(陣容中的弱點)剛好是三個高中棄學生，Webster成長遲緩 Webster appears to be fairly one dimensional, and while he can shoot the ball, opposing players know he can't do much else, making their jobs that much easier. Travis Outlaw, the lanky, super athletic forward out of Mississippi, is finally starting to develop into a spot starter in the league. Outlaw將發展成先發 Lastly is Darius Miles, the high school out of East St. Louis. Early in his career, Miles was seen as a player with the type of immense physical gifts that could take the league by storm. At this point though, he is merely an afterthought on this talented team, brushed aside due to his malignant attitude and selfish play. Between Webster and Outlaw, the Blazers are solid at the three spot, but look for them to explore a small forward upgrade in this year's draft. 講到高中三人組最後一人的Miles(啊都退休了)，建議選秀中選個SF升級 In the front court, everything is going to revolve around Oden. This guy was a top overall pick the minute he exited the womb. Gifted with length and athleticism usually not bestowed upon seven footers, this gentle giant should lock down the Blazers frontcourt for the next 15 to 18 years, provided he bounces back from microfracture surgery in the same manner that Amare Stoudemire has. Oden可以撐起前場15到18年 (40 + 15~18=!!!) Backing up Oden is Joel Przybilla, a big body that provides defense off the bench, and Raef Lafrentz. As much as I loved Raef during his days at Kansas, and wanted so badly for him to be a great NBA player, it just hasn't been the case. Lafrentz does provide a good shooting touch if that's what is called for, but it certainly doesn't justify his monster contract, coming in at over 12 million dollars this season. Przybilla從替補席提供防守，Lafrentz提供投射(笑)和1200萬到期合約 Joining Oden in the front court at the four spot is LaMarcus Alrdidge, with Channing Frye and Josh McRoberts in reserve. With Oden's injury this past season, Aldridge was given the opportunity to come into his own. Given his skill set involves more mid-range jumpers than Oden's, the two should complement each other nicely. 大前鋒有Aldridge、Frye、McRoberts，LMA的中距離和Oden是天造地設的一對 Frye's rookie season with New York seemed to indicate that he might one day be an all star type player, but much of his hype has cooled off and he is being more fairly assessed now. Frye offers nice size, athleticism and adequate defense, but an inadequate offensive game which relies mostly on put backs. Frye新人年表現良好，且有不錯的身體條件，但現在.. Had McRoberts entered the draft coming out of high school, or even one year out of college, he would have been a lottery pick (or close). His two years at Duke exposed him for what he really is as a player; a lumbering big man that seems to do everything ok, but nothing spectacularly. As if the Blazers didn't already have enough players, also within their cupboard of international projects is English big man Joel Freeland, a 20 year old athletic big with a decent perimeter shot. 杜克誤McRoberts一生，我們還有個Freeland在歐洲放牛吃草 With all that said the Blazers also have the 13th pick and could go in a number of different directions. Since there is no glaring need on this team, the best player available philosophy stands to reason. Players the Blazers should target include PG Russell Westbrook, SF Joe Alexander and C JaVale McGee. 拓荒者在選秀有很多選擇方向，選這順位最好的人 PG Russell Westbrook, SF Joe Alexander and C JaVale McGee -- 看到Team Needs寫SF我就笑了 ~(~^ ^~)~ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 221.169.172.177 ※ 編輯: YuuAoi 來自: 221.169.172.177 (05/29 18:30)
