Noah gets his reward, but what about Deng? http://goo.gl/HiPnm Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau is happy for Joakim Noah, who was named to the NBA All-Defensive second team announced Monday. But there’s no defense for leaving Luol Deng off the All-Defensive first team, Thibodeau said. Thibodeau 為 Noah 能入選週一公佈的防守第二隊而高興，但表明沒人能為 Deng 落選第二隊來辯護。 “In my eyes, Luol deserves to be first team,’’ said Thibodeau, surprised that even Derrick Rose, who narrowly missed joining Noah on the second team, got more votes from the league’s 30 coaches than Deng. “Joakim has played well, and Derrick has certainly improved a lot. But to me, Luol’s an all-league defender.’’ 「在我眼中，Luol 應是第一隊的，」Thibodeau 說著，並訝異於 Rose 僅以些微的差距，就能加入 Noah 的第二隊，而從30名教頭那贏來的票數甚至比 Deng 還多。「Joakim 打得很好，而 Rose 也得到長足的進步。但對我而言，Luol 是全聯盟級別（第一隊）的。」 Named to the first team were Orlando’s Dwight Howard, Boston’s Rajon Rondo and Kevin Garnett, Miami’s LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers’ Kobe Bryant. Joining Noah on the second team were Memphis’ Tony Allen, New Orleans ’ Chris Paul, Dallas’ Tyson Chandler and Philadelphia’s Andre Iguodala. （略；說明一二隊的成員） While Noah missed 30 games with a thumb injury, Deng, who logged a team-high 39.1 minutes per game, was the most important cog in a team defense that finished second in points allowed and led the league in field-goal and three-point defense. 相對於 Noah 因姆指受傷而缺席了30場比賽，Deng 平均每場打了全隊最多的39.1分鐘。他是全隊防守的重心，被得分全聯盟第二低、被進球及三分球的防守則都是聯盟最好。 One of Deng’s strengths is that while he generally guards small - forwards, Thibodeau has not hesitated to put him on power forwards and shooting guards — and occasionally even on point guards. Deng 的其中一個優勢，是他一般都守小前鋒，而 Thibodeau 未有疑慮地讓他守大前鋒、得分後衛，甚至偶爾還守控衛。 “I don’t mind it,’’ Deng said. “I’ve played the longest at the four [power forward] that I’ve ever played. It’s the most I’ve guarded the two guards. Sometimes [I’ve guarded] the one a little bit, but it’s the three most of the time.’’ 「我不在意，」Deng說，「我最常打四號位（大前鋒），最多可守到後衛，偶爾守一號，但最多時間還是守三號。」 Thibodeau has never underappreciated Deng. “I always thought he was a complete player,’’ Thibodeau said. “What I didn’t understand is how great a leader he is. And he can handle big minutes. Thibodeau 從未低估 Deng。「我總是認為他是全能球員，」Thibodeau 說，「我未能了解的是他能當多好的領導者？他確實是能打長時間的。」 “We ask him to do everything, whether it’s guarding a tough premier cover, score, rebound, play-make. He moves extremely well without the ball. He complements Derrick and Carlos [Boozer] really well.’’ 「我們要求他要做所有事，無論是外圍的協防、得分、籃板、單打。他的空手走位非常好，而和 Derrick 及 Carlos 的互補也確實很好。」 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 114.25.182.111
