[外絮] 無私的黃蜂2015-2016賽季進攻火力全面升級
Unselfish Hornets could have more offensive punch in 2015-16
無私的黃蜂隊可望在2015-2016賽季帶來更多進攻火力
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — If the NBA preseason is any indication, the Charlotte Hornets are going to be a vastly improved offensive team.
北卡夏洛特(美聯社)— 如果 NBA 熱身賽真的能代表什麼的話,夏洛特黃蜂隊將會成為一支進攻大幅度進步的球隊。
The concern will be how well they can defend.
問題就在於,他們防守可以守得多好。
The Hornets made an effort to upgrade their offense this past offseason by adding Nicolas Batum, Jeremy Lin, Jeremy Lamb and Spencer Hawes, along with first-round draft pick Frank Kaminsky.
在今年的休賽期間,黃蜂隊在自由市場簽下了Nicolas Batum、書豪、Jeremy Lamb 跟 Spencer Hawes,並透過第一輪選秀選到了Frank Kaminsky,升級了他們的進攻。
But none are particularly known as defensive stalwarts and with top defender Michael Kidd-Gilchrist sidelined for six months with a shoulder injury, third-year coach Steve Clifford will be relying on team defense.
但這些球員沒有一個球員被證明在防守上可被信賴,何況隊上防守最好的MKG因為肩傷休戰6個月,以至於教頭Clifford只得仰賴於球隊的團隊防守。
"Potentially we could be a very good offensive team, but if we want to go where we want to go we are going to need to be a good defensive team also," Clifford said.
“我們很有潛力成為強大的進攻隊伍,但除非我們也成為一支防守堅強的球隊,不然我們哪裡也去不成。”
The Hornets scored more than 100 points three times and started the preseason 4-0, showing unselfishness, solid chemistry and ball movement for a roster that includes seven new players.
黃蜂隊的熱身賽到目前為止有三場比賽得分超過100分、戰績4勝0敗,並展現出無私的球風、良好的化學效應與球的流動性,對一個有七個新球員的球隊而言,實屬難能可貴。
"The ball is moving and when guys are open the ball is in their hands," Clifford said.
“球的流動很好。當球員有空檔,我們都能將球傳到他們手中。”教頭Clifford 如是說。
The Hornets were the worst 3-point shooting team in the league last season, but are shooting 40.2 percent from long distance during the preseason.
去年的黃蜂隊三分命中率全聯盟最爛,但今年熱身賽中黃蜂隊團隊三分命中率卻高達百分之40.2。
"The big thing is what we addressed in terms of more skill, more shooting and ways to create more range shooting — and that is evident so far," Clifford said. "We have more perimeter players who shoot and create shots. But a lot of that is set up by the spacing of the bigs."
“就像先前已經提過的,我們最主要的改變是現在的球員中有更多的天份、更好的投射能力,也有更多創造投籃機會的方式。” Clifford說到,“我們有更多能投籃也能創造得分機會的外圍射手。但這些也是受惠於隊上的長人所創造的空間跟機會。”
================================================
Things to watch from the Hornets this season:
本季觀戰重點:
JEFFERSON'S DURABILITY: Al Jefferson is only 30 years old but he has plenty of tread on his tires having played in 780 career games during his 11 seasons in the league. Jefferson began to show wear and tear on his knees and feet last season, forcing him to miss games. He has dropped 25 pounds in the offseason hoping to lessen the pressure on his lower body.
一、Jeffereson 能否保持健康
Al Jefferson才30歲而已但他已經有相當程度的磨損,畢竟他已經在11個NBA賽季中打了780場比賽。上賽季他已經因膝蓋跟腳部的損耗入廠維修了一些比賽。本季 Al Jefferson 瘦身25磅,希望能為下半身減輕一些壓力。
BATUM'S ROLE: The Hornets traded to acquire Nicolas Batum, figuring he would play mostly at the shooting guard spot. But when Kidd-Gilchrist went down with an injury, Batum shifted over to small forward, where it is expected he will see most of his playing time. Batum is big and athletic enough to play either position. Clifford is excited about his court smarts and expects him to be one of the top three scorers on the team this season along with Jefferson and point guard Kemba Walker.
二、Batum 的角色
黃蜂隊透過交易取得 Nicolas Batum,認為他可以打得分後衛。可惜MKG受傷倒下以致 Batum 必須被拉去打小前鋒,他本季大概主要都會打這個位置。Batum 身高夠高,運動力也強,無論得分後衛或小前鋒都足以勝任。Clifford 對Batum的籃球智商感到非常興奮,並期待Batum可以和Al Jefferson跟控衛 Kemba Walker一起分擔球隊的前三得分點。
POWER FORWARD BATTLE: Kaminsky, a four-year player at Wisconsion, may have to bide his time as he looks to find his way into the Hornets rotation. Charlotte is jammed with bigs that include Jefferson, Cody Zeller, Spencer Hawes and Tyler Hansborough. Kaminsky came into the league with an NBA-ready game and has already shown he plays well off the pick and roll. There were plenty of critics who berated the Hornets for passing on Duke's Justise Winslow with the ninth pick, but the team fully believes they
made the right decision by taking a power forward in the first round for the third straight season.
三、大前鋒之爭
當在Wisconsin大打了四年球的Kaminsky想要在黃蜂的輪替中找到位置時,他須要稍微沈潛並等待機會。黃蜂隊上塞滿了長人,包括Al Jefferson, Cody Zeller, Spencer Hawes, 和 Tyler Hansborough。Kaminsky 已經準備好挑戰NBA等級的比賽,並且已經展現出打擋拆的優秀能力。許多人批評黃蜂隊在第九順位放棄了杜克大學的Justise Winslow,但球隊完全相信他們連續第三個球季用首輪籤選下大前鋒是正確的決定。
WALKER'S SHOOTING: Clifford believes Walker could be on the verge of a breakout season with other scorers around him. The 6-foot-1 point guard shot just 30.4 percent from 3-point range last season and is at 31.8 percent for his career. Clifford said Walker has worked extremely hard on that aspect of his game this offseason and the Hornets would like to see him shooting around 37 or 38 percent.
四、肯巴走路人(Kemba Walker)的投籃
Clifford 相信 Walker 本賽季在許多得分好手的環繞之下,將迎接他的生涯爆發年。走路人是6呎1吋的控衛,去年三分命中率只有30.4%,生涯三分命中率也只有31.8%。Clifford表示走路人過去的暑假在各方面都超級無敵認真的尋求進步,因此黃蜂期待他本季命中率可以達到37-38%。
SHOOTING GUARD OPENING: Clifford is set on four of his five starters with Walker, Batum, Zeller and Jefferson. He hasn't figured out who'll start at the shooting guard spot. Lin, Lamb and P.J. Hairston are all options there. Lin is looking to jumpstart his career in Charlotte, and has looked good in the preseason playing games in China. But Clifford also likes the idea of Lin coming off the bench as a second-team point guard. "He can play both positions, which is an advantage," Clifford said.
五、得分後衛的空缺
Clifford已經決定先發五人中的四人了,包括走路人、Batum, Zeller, 跟Jefferson。不過他還沒決定誰是先發得分後衛。可能的選項包括林書豪、Lamb跟P.J. Hairston。林書豪迫不及待要開始黃蜂的生涯,且在中國的季前賽看來狀況很好。但是Clifford教練也頗喜歡讓Lin從板凳出發的主意。 “他[控衛跟得分後衛]兩個位置都可以打,這是他的優勢。”
