這篇頗激烈的，砲口全指向布朗教練。而這個網站的作者們從交易完成的當天就對這筆交易的前景有疑慮，文中也提了一些所謂交易失敗的數據來佐證。大家不妨可以討論討論。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://mvn.com/nba-cavaliers/ Explain This, Mike Brown 你倒是說說看啊布朗教練 Remember when the Cavs dismantled the Memphis Grizzlies right after pulling off that blockbuster trade last month? And remember how I said to “proceed with caution” despite the impressive showing in the debut of the new guys Danny Ferry brought in? 還記得交易後大勝灰熊的那個夜晚嗎？還記得我說過，儘管交易後的第一場球看起來很美好，還是必須要持續注意這些Ferrt所換來的新隊員嗎？ Well, the Cavs are 9-7 with their new lineup - a winning percentage of .563. Keep in mind that this team was 30-24, a winning percentage of .556, before the trade. They aren’t going to catch Orlando for even the third seed in the pathetic Eastern Conference. 看看戰績吧。交易後：9-7，勝率56.3；交易前，30-24，勝率55.6。至今還追不上魔術隊，在東區搶不下第三種子。 It’s one thing to fall behind Detroit and Boston, but Orlando? If the Cavs - the defending Eastern Conference champions - are going to let a young team that has yet to be battle-tested like the Magic close the door on them for the third seed, then can this really be a successful trade? 落後給超塞與活塞是一回事，但落後魔術呢？如果騎士作為一支東區衛冕軍，卻讓一支至今仍處於試煉中的球隊關上了他們成為第三種子的大門，那麼，這還可以算是一筆成功的交易嗎？ Keep this much in mind: Larry Hughes dropped 40 on the Magic back in February. 把這點記在心上吧：秀詩兄在二月對上魔術時得了40分。 And speaking of the success of the guys the Cavs got rid of, it’s interesting to watch the ascent of one Drew Gooden. 說到那些被騎士所拋棄的球員們的成功，檢視古登的提升將會非常有趣。 The Bulls, who were left for dead at the time the three-way trade with Cleveland and Seattle went down, have finally found their way back into the playoff hunt. And they have Gooden to thank for that. Although the Bulls’ winning percentage has been about the same since the trade as it was before, the former Kansas Jayhawk has logged some huge - huge - games for Chicago against some prime time competition. 公牛隊在三方交易過後，終於找到了他們重返季後賽的方式──感謝古登的貢獻。儘管交易前後公牛隊的勝率沒啥變化，但這位前堪撒斯Jayhawk的球員（譯按：http://kuathletics.cstv.com/）替他們注入了比賽的競爭力。 Gooden posted a monster game of 31 points and 16 boards on 12-for-23 shooting on Tuesday night as the Bulls took a big step towards the eighth and final playoff spot in the East with a win over Atlanta. The Bulls were +13 when Gooden was on the floor, a statistic for which he had been knocked on when he was a Cavalier. 對老鷹的比賽，古登的表現為：31分16籃板，12-23的投籃表現，讓公牛朝向著季後賽資格邁進。當古登在場上時，公牛在-/+這項數據上是+13的表現，而這項數據是他在騎士時一直被抨擊的。 In 16 games as a Bull, Gooden is putting up 15.1 points and 9.6 boards for Chi-town. Eight of those 16 games have gone for double-doubles. For a guy who was criticized for his inconsistency in Cleveland, these numbers would easily be career highs for Gooden if he averaged them for an entire season, and putting them up over a span of 16 games is a long enough time period to prove his newfound consistency as far as I’m concerned. 在16場公牛的球賽中，古登的數據攀升至15.1分9.6籃板，當中有八場雙十。對於一個在騎士隊以"不穩定性"被批評的球員而言，這些數據已經足以讓他的季平均達到生涯新高。而且16場比賽已經夠久了，足以證明他的穩定性。 The knocks that Gooden took on his defense? He averaged 0.5 blocks in two and a half seasons under Mike Brown. In Chicago, he’s already averaging 1.5 blocks per game, including a season high of four swats last week against New Jersey. 至於那些對他防守能力的抨擊呢？在布朗教練兩個半球季的麾下，0.5個火鍋。而作為一隻公牛，他的場均火鍋已經來到了1.5個，包括上週對上籃網賽季新高的四個大鍋。 Where was this production in Cleveland? Well, Gooden had his career year in his first season in a Cavaliers uniform back in 2004-05 under Paul Silas, where he nearly replaced Carlos Boozer without skipping a beat with 14.4 points and 9.2 boards a game. That season, Gooden hit his career-highs of points in a game (33 against Milwaukee) and boards (21 against Phoenix). Under Silas, Gooden definitely turned a corner in his career, playing in all 82 games and notching 37 double-doubles. 這些情況出現在克里夫蘭過？當古登第一年來到克里夫蘭當Boo$er的替代品時，在Paul Silas手下他打出了當時的生涯新高：14.4分9.2籃板，包括得分與籃板上的新高（33、21），82場全勤，37次雙十，為生涯的轉戾點。 Under Brown, Gooden was a solid role player, but his production was limited. He always seemed to put up big numbers in losses while not contributing as much in wins. This is unlike what’s going on in Chicago, where Gooden has arguably become one of the best two or three players on a roster that includes Ben Gordon, Kirk Hinrich, and Luol Deng. He’s not just padding his stats - he’s legitimately leading the Bulls to huge victories, including ones against New Jersey and Atlanta to keep Chicago alive in the playoff hunt. 而在布朗教練手下，他是個單功能的球員，但他的表現被限制。他總是在輸的比賽數據漂亮，贏的比賽卻貢獻不多。不像在芝加哥，他處在核心的上場輪替名單，不僅有漂亮的數據陪襯，還帶領球隊贏球，使球隊依舊保有季後賽的一線生機。 Don’t believe me? Then just ask Bulls fans, some of whom believe that Gooden is their best player outright and could even be their first All-Star in years. 不相信嗎？問問公牛隊的球迷吧。有些公牛迷相信古登是他們今年表現最好的球員，甚至可能是接下來幾年他們的第一位明星球員。 This is the exact same Drew Gooden that was a Cavalier just a month ago - the same guy who is shooting 47 percent as a Bull after shooting 44 percent as a Cav this season. If Brown had found a way to get Gooden as involved in the team’s offense as Bulls interim coach Jim Boylan has, the Cavs would have a legitimate second scoring option and a low-post threat to go next to LeBron, as well as one of the best, most consistent rebounders in the league. 這確實是那個一個月前還是騎士球員的古登。命中率：47%（在騎士44%）。如果布朗教練找到讓古登融入球隊進攻的法子（如同公牛隊教練Jim Boylan），那麼騎士隊將會有個正當的第二得分選擇，與一個具有低位威脅性的球員，還有聯盟最棒、最穩定之一的籃板好手。 Instead, they now have Ben Wallace, who has averaged a measly 4.9 points and 8.1 boards on 46.4 percent shooting. Wallace, known for being a tenacious defender and shot-blocking demon, is averaging 1.4 blocks (translation: less than Drew Gooden) in his 14-game tenure as a Cavalier. 反之，現在的大班，4.9分與8.1籃板，與46.4%的命中率；曾經以防守與蓋火鍋著稱的球員，現在場均1.4鍋（意即：比古登差）。以上是在騎士隊14場比賽下來的數據。 Even Larry Hughes has seen his production go up from 12.3 points to 14.5 in just two more minutes per game. Hughes is also averaging 4.0 dimes and 1.8 steals as a Bull - more than his totals in two and a half tumultuous seasons in Cleveland. 連秀詩兄都打得更好了！12.3上升到14.5，每場比賽也只多打了兩分鐘！ The Cavs, once again, have been able to get by on the merits of LeBron James alone. They needed an easy road to the Eastern Conference Finals against two .500 teams as well as unworldly performances from King James against the Pistons to get to the Finals last season. This season, they’re already all but guaranteed a tough, rocky road back to the NBA Finals if they stay in their current position - probably Toronto, Boston, and Detroit, in that order. 騎士隊又在一次地，能夠讓LBJ的優點落單了。在進到東區決賽之前，他們需要有個輕鬆的客場，在面對兩支五成勝率球隊時，以及上季大帝對上活塞時的超人類表現。假使騎士隊維持著目前的順位，那可以很肯定地，這季想要重返冠軍戰將保證會商當地難──季後賽對手的順序可能是暴龍、超塞與活塞。 And a worse supporting cast around The King. 而大帝的親衛隊們更糟了。 Go get ‘em, LeBron 去吧，李柏榕。 -- 譯後記：　　古登的表現除了上一場爆胎之外，似乎真的打得不錯。但秀詩那段我就比較不同意了，且看他近來幾場真的越來越秀詩了。　　小弟之前的文章也曾提過，換過來的球員大多是單一功能取向，整合得不好不會產生質變（還是支一人球隊），而量變上的影響會更明顯（籃板與防守的數據下降）。今天雖然一分飲恨給西區第一，但基本上還是靠交易前的老球員在撐。從古登的例子看來，莫非真的是教練問題？（而我認為秀詩，即使從數據來看，都只有他身手不再的問題）　　無論如何，趕快找出些贏球的方式吧。騎士加油！！ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 125.225.110.210 ※ 編輯: kenta10 來自: 125.225.110.210 (03/28 01:06)
