Grizz Fans, Your Franchise Player Is . . . Written by Lee Eric Smith Thursday, 19 November 2009 09:10 I admit it: When it comes to basketball, I, too, am a sucker for flash. I like to see a guy break ankles on a crossover on his way to the hoop and throw up some sort of weird dipsy do heave that somehow magically goes in. I like to see a guy go for 40 or 50 points. I like to see a guy dunk on somebody. Often, the player who does these things tends to be called your franchise player: See LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, Dwyane Wade. But highlight reels do not a franchise player make. What you want in a franchise player is leadership, mental toughness, basketball smarts. You want a guy who can will his team to victory even if he's having a bad shooting night. You want a player who plays hard every night, hates to lose, is coachable and both demands and inspires his teammates to perform at a high level as a unit. You want a player who makes his teammates better. And of course, you want someone you can throw the basketball to when you need a bucket -- someone who will either score or make the right play. And because of all THOSE things, the fans LOVE him. I wasn't sure who that guy was among our beloved Blue Bears -- not until last night. So Grizz fans I proudly present your TRUE franchise player . . . Franchise Player Marc Gasol MARC GASOL. I know, right? It's crazy, for so many different reasons. But there it is. Never thought you'd see the words "franchise player" and "Gasol" in the same sentence again, did you? To make the leap to the next level, the Grizzlies will certainly need more than one franchise player. I fully expect Rudy and/or OJ to grow into this role. But until further notice, Marc Gasol is our guy. So much so that I predict it's a matter of time before his teammates are referring to him as "The Big Fella" much the same as Shaq and Dwight. He's been proving it all season, whether we win or lose. But it was so obvious last night with the way he was picking apart the L.A. Clippers that I knew I'd be writing this post today. He's been playing well and getting better. He makes an already good Zach Randolph even better. He's a great passer. He can make a jumper. He even rolled through the lane for a couple of those pretty sweet lefty skyhooks. I'm pissed off to the highest levels of pisstivity that Allen Iverson is on our All-Star ballot, and Marc Gasol isn't. And you know what? Marc Gasol doesn't care. He just wants to win. Then again, what else would you expect from your franchise player? 灰熊球迷，你心中的特權球員是誰? 我承認，關於籃球，我也鐘情於突破，我喜歡看一個傢伙用匪夷所思的腳步，晃過對手衝向籃框，然後拋出一道怪異的弧線。我喜歡一個傢伙得到4，50分。我喜歡看一個傢伙在某人頭上扣籃。能做到這一切的被叫做"特權球員"。LBJ，Kobe，D-Wade都是。但集錦裏並不都是特權球員。一個"特權球員"需要領導力，毅力，籃球智商。你需要一個即使整晚投籃都很糟糕仍然能把球隊帶向勝利的特權球員。你需要一個球員每晚都很努力，痛恨失敗，容易執教，要求並激勵隊友組成一個統一的整體。你需要一個能使隊友變得更好的球員。你還想能傳球給一個可信任的傢伙--要能得分，也能合理進攻的球員。因為這些原因，球迷喜歡他們。我一直不確定我們深愛的灰熊隊有沒有這樣的球員，直到昨天晚上：灰熊迷們，我將向你們隆重推出我們的"特權球員"。他就是M.Gasol。有很多理由覺得這很瘋狂，不是嗎？你從不會想到Gasol會和“特權球員”連在一起。要進入一個新境界，灰熊需要不止一個特權球員。我滿希望Rudy和OJ能成為這種角色，但據更深入的觀察只有M.Gasol是我們的特權球員。所有我推測很久以前隊友就把他當做Shaq和魔獸那樣猛的大個子。他整個賽季都在進步，不管我們贏球還是輸球。但很明顯是昨晚他打爆了快艇，使我要寫今天這篇文章。他打的很好、還在變的更好，他已經比Zach Randolph更好了。他甚至在禁區投進許多美妙的左手勾射。我非常憤怒AI在全明星候選名單之列，而M.Gasol不在。但你知道嗎？M.Gasol並不在意。他只在意勝利。你對你的特權球員還能有什麽期待? http://3sob.com/archives/44-november-2009/767-grizz-fans-your-franchise-player -is--- -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 82.139.87.216 ※ 編輯: kundera 來自: 82.139.87.216 (11/21 23:44)
