在前幾天的某篇外電翻譯中有位網友提到說想要翻翻 A lame apology to Derrick Rose這篇 by Henry Abbott (Jan 27) 我一時手癢就去看了一下也順便貼上也期待有人有時間的話翻成大家熟識的語言 A lame apology to Derrick Rose Yesterday's bullets included this: 他一月27號會寫這一篇是因為作者前一天的小評中他滿直接的批了Rose的防守 (以下一小段為原批評) Abbott :他的攻擊的PER才排第14 (恕版工我一直沒有研究PER) 偶爾的妙傳也才助攻排第七 A treasure trove of opinions arguing that Derrick Rose is or is not the leading candidate for MVP. I think it's an accomplishment for Rose to even get into conversations like this, no matter your criteria. He's a pretty bad defender on the NBA's seventh-best team, and he's not even among the very best producers on offense, ranking 14th in PER. Dumb ol' points per game can sometimes get someone a magic pass, but even there he's seventh. I'm not saying any of those metrics are gospel. I'm saying the best player in the league ought to really stand out at something, and being the most exciting player and leading scorer on a good team in a big market is not enough. 然後 Abbott說網民憤怒的回覆尤其是芝加哥人把芝加哥的大風雪都帶來我的城市跟寫信到我Gmail信箱 (噴吃他怎知道回覆的是芝加哥人？難道只有芝加哥人才喜歡Rose 還是是故意要戰城市？拉攏其他非Rose球迷支持論點？) 以下從他的敘述帶入本文這篇的迴響又更大了有兩百多人直接回覆我還沒有時間讀回覆所以不知道大家在論述些囉 An angry wind has since blown in from Chicago, dumping three feet of snow on my town, and three dozen expletive-laden e-mails on my gmail account. 90 percent of the anger is reserved for two words: "pretty bad." As in "defender." 他說也許我講Rose防守很爛是用得重一點 Maybe that was too strong. Sorry. Kind of. 那我某種程度我道歉但是................ Half of those e-mailers point me to an article by the 33mTrueHoop Network's own Rob Mahoney on The New York Times site. 文中提到的另一篇文章 http://tinyurl.com/4dp8hnm 自行參看 Mahoney skillfully points out that for all the improvements to Rose's shooting this season, the Bulls' guard's biggest improvement has come on defense, where the Bulls have remained exceptional despite a rash of injuries to big men. Even then, the story begins with the accepted premise that Rose has been, in the past, an atrocious defender. I can't find any person or metric that disputes that, and with time you could make a lowlight reel of Rose, in his first two years, losing his man at the slightest whisper of a pick, and losing his train of thought with every switch. Before this season, his default defense, with good reason, was to avoid foul trouble like the plague, which a lot of offensive stars do. Rose is no longer an atrocious defender, certainly. But in his improvement, what level has he risen to? Passable? OK? Good? Excellent? Individual defense is basketball's most inscrutable topic. After digging through a lot of analysis, Mahoney's opinion is that now, for the first time, Rose can make "a legitimate claim as a plus defender." As in: He's probably helping his team on defense. Mahoney then provides some video and Synergy data showing that in many different instances, especially in isolation, Rose has elite defensive numbers. So that means something. That's about where I am, too. "Pretty bad" is, I think, still a generous assessment of his total defensive career, but it's probably a step too dour for his current effort. So, sorry. I should have said "average." 好吧我不該說他很爛該說他還行兒(捲舌) Just for fun, I called David Thorpe, too, who says that he sees Rose as a vastly improved defender but "average" for his position. "There might be some situations," Thorpe allows, "where he is above average." 然後他打電話給 David Thorpe 這是Luol Deng的訓練員問他.... But to me the biggest point here is that Rose just got the NBA's sharpest defensive mind running his team, in Tom Thibodeau. Ray Allen had a career as a miserable defender, then teamed with good defenders in Boston, in an amazing system where he got to excel in a limited role, and presto: He was a starter on the NBA's best defense. The same goes for Hedo Turkoglu in Orlando. He was a bad defender everywhere, a good defender under Stan Van Gundy, a bad defender again for Toronto and Phoenix, and then boom: There he is back in Orlando, part of an elite defense again. Is the lesson there that Allen and Turkoglu are great defenders? Hardly. (No one in Toroto or Phoenix is accusing Turkoglu of that, anyway.) What I get from that is that a really good defensive system, anchored by strong defenders (like Kevin Garnett, Kendrick Perkins, and Dwight Howard) and administered by an uncommon coach can accomodate lots of different kinds of players. The Bulls have a great game plan on defense, and a number of good defenders. Watch Ronnie Brewer for ten or twelve straight plays. Everyone wonders why Keith Bogans gets minutes even though he's horrible on offense, and the reason is defense! Not that he's first-team all NBA, but he knows what's happening. Luol Deng has savvy and size, Taj Gibson is long and athletic. Put it all together, and you get Rose as the starting point guard on what is quite probably the NBA's best defense. But let's just say you were to plug Rajon Rondo, Russell Westbrook, or Jrue Holiday into that same system, in place of Rose. Would the Bulls' defense improve even further? Heck yeah it would. And so long as that's the case, let's credit Rose with tremendous improvement. He's a great team player and worker who does more than enough on defense. But certainly his most important contributions are on offense. (開始放大絕) Abbott:要不是有Thibs這個好教練你看好教練帶你上天堂像是Ray Allen終其一生防守都只是還行兒(捲舌) Hedo也是因為碰到Van Gundy 況且小酒, Bogans, Deng, Taj防守都好到翻出包皮了 (無人身影射) Rose加到這個系統你能說不好嗎？哩公跨賣？如果你把Rondo跟Westbrook或是Jrue Holiday(這誰？)放到同樣的系統裡跟你說防守只會更好!!!!!!!! 不信我雞雞爛掉！！！！ To the bigger point about Rose's MVP candidacy: In that regard, being in the lower middle, middle, or upper middle of the pack is still not ahead of the pack. My point is that by every theory someone can win an MVP award -- team record, individual production and scoring have played massive roles in past years -- Rose is elite but not the best. Defense will not be the thing to seperate him from the pack, either. 總結 Heney: Rose請繼續加油好嗎？ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 131.193.231.81 ※ 編輯: eertllams 來自: 131.193.231.81 (02/11 04:53) ※ 編輯: eertllams 來自: 131.193.231.81 (02/11 04:54) ※ 編輯: eertllams 來自: 131.193.231.81 (02/11 04:55)
