Reed--His department is defense
原文位於:http://www.boston.com/sports/basketball/celtics/
Justin Reed loves to make people uncomfortable. Not the
I-can't-believe-he-just-said-that kind of uncomfortable. But the
stop-bothering-me, get-out-of-my-face, stay-away kind. Reed wants to provoke
strong reactions with everything he does. He sees that as the most important
part of his job. Such is the life of the Celtics' second-year defensive
specialist.
Reed 喜歡讓人覺得不舒服,但這是指在防守上,他將它視為籃球中最重要的一環
Usually, young players don't like to play defense. Usually, they go instead
for the high-flying dunks. But not the 23-year-old Reed, who had coaches at
Provine High School in Jackson, Miss., and the University of Mississippi
drill defensive fundamentals until they became both second nature and fun.
Watching an opposing player become so frustrated he cannot help but complain
to officials provides its own rush for Reed.
通常年輕球員不會喜歡防守,只喜歡灌籃,但是Reed可不一樣,在密西西比大學時就受
過良好的防守訓練,而成為一種自然動作和樂趣(看著對手失挫、無助地向裁判報怨
Reed對他的干擾)
''You really get to see what a guy is made of when you make him
uncomfortable," said Reed. ''Some guys don't like to be touched, so I touch
him a little bit. Some guys like to get to their normal spots, so I don't let
them get to their normal spots. I just do little negative things to keep them
off balance, just to make my job a little easier. At the same time, it
creates a little problem between us. But that's a part of playing defense.
Some guys will start crying and complaining and asking the refs for a little
help. If you play defense long enough, you start to pick up on the signals
when your guy has had as much as he's gonna take and when he doesn't want it
anymore. I always know.
Reed說"你們一定要看看那些被你們防到受不了的傢伙的反應,有些人就是不喜歡別人碰
他,所以我就碰他一點點,有些人喜歡走到他們正常的位置,所以我就不讓他們到正常的
位置,我就是做一些負面的事讓對方失去平衡,讓我的工作更容易些,同時在我和對手之
前製造一些小衝突,但這些都只是防守上的事。有些傢伙就會開始向裁判哭鬧希望得到幫
助,而當你防守的經驗夠多時就能感應到對方到底還受不受得了.我總是能知道~~"
''You have to be tough. You have to be willing to get bumped, bruised,
kicked, scratched, and just bounce back from it. I know I'm tough. Really,
I'm built for defense. That's what I was brought here for, so that's what I'm
going to do."
Reed"你一定要夠壯,要願意去做肢體碰撞,我知道我夠壯,真的,我是為了防守而建立
的,這也是我為這裡(C's)帶來的東西,也是我要去做的事"
On a team stocked with young, talented scorers, Reed knows how he can
distinguish himself enough to earn significantly more playing time than the
5.3 minutes per game he averaged last season. Defense could go a long way
toward winning Reed the starting small forward job, if coach Doc Rivers
decides to start Paul Pierce at shooting guard and keep Ricky Davis coming
off the bench. In any event, Reed hopes he can set an example that makes
defense a priority among his teammates.
在一群年輕有得分天分的球隊中,Reed知道自已在可以贏得比上季(5.3m/game)更多的上
場時間,防守是一條長遠的路直達Reed贏得先發小前鋒的工作(如果Doc打算讓PP打SG讓
Ricky打第六人的話),無論如何Reed希望他能在隊友中立下一個防守的典範。
''My goals are to be one of the best team players I possibly can, to do
whatever the team needs me to do," said Reed. ''Whatever they call for me to
do, whatever my role is, I want to be the best at my role as possible. I can
bring intensity; excitement about playing on defense. Sometimes people dread
playing defense. So, I think if the team sees me having a winning attitude on
defense, it will kind of circulate through the whole team. Then we'll all
start enjoying defense as a collective effort."
Reed:"我希望能成為一位最好的團隊球員,去做任何球隊要我做的事。無論他們要我做
什麼,無論我的定位是什麼,我只要在我的位置上做到最好,我可以帶來強度和防守上
的剌激,有些人不喜歡防守,所以我想球隊會看到我在防守上的正面態度,這就像一種
循環一樣,直到整隊都樂於防守"
Reed's defensive development in the NBA has already been something of a
collective effort. He credits Pierce and Davis for providing defensive
challenges in practice. When asked who is the toughest player to guard in the
league, Reed does not hesitate to name Pierce. And that is not an uninformed
opinion. Although Reed saw limited playing time last season, Rivers trusted
the rookie enough to match him with some of the most talented offensive
players in the NBA when Pierce, Davis, and others needed a rest.
Reed防守發展在nba已經是一種集體的作用力,他歸功於PP和Ricky在練習時給他的防守
挑戰,如果你問到說誰是NBA最難守的球員,Reed豪不遲疑的說是Pierce(這可是不制式
的回答喔),雖然上季Reed的上場時間不多,但已經足夠贏得Doc的信任去看守聯盟中一些
有天分的進攻球員(當Pierce、Ricky及其它球員需要休息時)
''He has the size, the quickness, and the strength to be a top-notch defender
in the league," said Pierce of the 6-foot-8-inch, 240-pound Reed. ''Only a
few guys can come with that combination. He still has to prove himself. He
still has a lot to learn, but he has the will for defense. Now, it's just
about getting the experience. We come in a lot and practice one on one. I
show him where I draw fouls and where he can become a better defender,
knowing how not to pick up those fouls."
Pierce說"他有那個體型、速度和力最去成為一個聯盟中最強的防守者(指六呎八吋二百
四十磅的Reed),沒幾個人能同時有上述的條件,他還必需要去証明自已,他還有很多要
去學,但他有意願去防守,現在他就是要去得到更多的經驗,我們練習了很多次的一對一
我告訴他在怎樣我會吃到犯規和怎樣能讓他成為一個更好的防守者,並知道如何不犯規"
Rivers would have used Reed more last season if not for NBA rules legislating
a five-game minimum stay on the injured list. Often odd man out when it came
to the active roster, Reed was placed on the injured list with such
questionable maladies as left hip pointers and right knee tendinitis. As a
result, he missed long stretches of the schedule, though he continued to
practice. In good news for Reed and other young players around the league,
the NBA now allows coaches to add and remove players from the inactive list
game by game. Reed should be able to better supplement what he learns from
Pierce and Davis in practice with game experience.
Doc上季本來可以更加重用Reed但受致於nba的傷兵規定(一進傷兵就要五場不能打?),
Reed上季因為只要有人出傷兵名單他就要進去,總之他錯過很多場比賽,但是他一
直保持練習,好消息是聯盟現在可讓球隊每一場之間將球員於傷兵名單中拿出和進去
Reed應該要由比賽的經驗中學到和PP、Ricky的練習所缺失的東西。
But before Rivers gives Reed more playing time, he must build on his success
from the Las Vegas Summer League, where he averaged 11.7 points and 3.8
rebounds per game and earned second-team honors at the end of the two-week
competition. According to Rivers, Reed has struggled adjusting to tougher
competition in training camp. Defensive gambles that were easy to recover
from in summer league play are more costly in preseason. Recognizing he still
has a lot to learn, Reed spent countless hours at the Celtics' training
facility during the offseason, dissecting his play and that of his teammates
and opposition. He knew how important making a good preseason impression
would be.
但是在Doc給Reed更多的上場時間之前,他應該要在建立在夏季聯盟的成功上,當時他平
均11.7分3.8籃板一場,並得到夏季聯盟第二隊的榮耀,根據Doc說Reed在訓練營中苦腦讓
自已更強健,賭博式的防守在夏季聯盟中比較容易彌補但是在熱身賽就可能傷害比較大,
他還是有很多要學的,季外Reed花了數不清的時間在C's的練習設備上,分析他的打法和
隊友及敵人的打法,他知道在熱身賽打好有多重要
''It's a big opportunity," said Reed. ''I'm not going to say it's going to be
a breakout [season], just hopefully I can take advantage of the opportunity
that hopefully they give me. I've just been eating, sleeping, and breathing
basketball, learning the ins and outs of NBA basketball. It's not so much the
athletic part of it. It's learning the X's and O's. So, I just really focused
in on more of knowing basketball than anything else, watching film and game
tape, playing a lot of ball, and working on a lot of different aspects of the
game."
Reed說"這是一個很大的機會,我不是指我會大突破,只是說我會在機會中得利,我現在
只做吃、睡、呼吸和打球,學習nba籃球(learning the ins and outs of NBA basketball. It's not so much the
athletic part of it. It's learning the X's and O's...這段在說什麼@@),我現在只
注意如何學習更多的籃球知識,觀看球賽影帶、打很多球及在球賽的很多不同角度努力。
