Lin shows improvement in Rockets' system
by Jonathan Feigen
Rockets guard Jeremy Lin reviewed video Thursday with coach Kevin McHale to see
the opportunities he had to take easier shots than the drives he tried against
the Hornets and then worked on taking those midrange attempts Thursday and
Friday.
火箭後衛林書豪在當地時間週四與主帥Kevin McHale一起重新觀看了球隊上一場擊敗黃蜂
的比賽錄影,他們通過觀看錄影為林書豪尋找更容易的投籃機會,並在對陣魔術時奏效。
"I just get more comfortable every game," Lin said. "It's something that's new.
There's going to be some time of transition and familiarity, but every game,
every step we're getting there. It's good. I love playing here. I love the
team. I love the system, the culture. It's been a great situation for me."
"每一場比賽我都更加適應,"林書豪說,"新的東西需要時間來過渡和熟悉,但是每場球,
我所邁出的每一步,都不錯。我喜歡在這裡打球,我愛這支球隊,愛這個體系,愛球隊的
文化,我在這裡很不錯。"
Lin made five of 10 shots with five assists and no turnovers Friday.
林書豪10投5中5助攻而且沒有一次失誤。
"We talked about making decisions early, pulling up early, just making simple
plays," McHale said. "I thought he did a nice job of that."
"我們談論的是更早更快地做決定,早早起跳投籃,讓戰術變得更簡單," McHale說,"我
認為他幹得不錯。"
Smith finishes with a flourish Smith大爆發
Rockets second-year center Greg Smith went from not playing at all to finishing
the preseason with a burst. After scoring eight points against the Hornets, he
had his second straight 4-for-4 shooting game, scoring 15 points against the
Magic on Friday. He finished the preseason making 93.3 percent of his shots.
火箭隊二年級中鋒Greg Smith,從季前賽開始時的坐冷板凳到季前賽收官階段的爆發,
Smith逐漸站穩腳。對陣黃蜂他4投4中拿到8分,本場對魔術他再一次4投全中砍下15分,季
前賽他的投籃命中率高達93.3%。
"I was just trying to be a beast and go to the goal," Smith said. "I was just
trying to go to the rim and get fouled or make it. That was the whole goal and
don't go up there soft."
"我只是努力去做一隻野獸,向目標前進," Smith說,"我努力殺向籃下,打成進攻或者製
造犯規,這就是我的目標所在,不讓自己顯得太軟弱。"
Stern earns McHale's praise 麥克海爾盛讚史騰
With a career in the NBA that began in 1980 and brought a close-up view of the
explosive growth that began with the Celtics-Lakers rivalry, Rockets coach
Kevin McHale praised NBA commissioner David Stern for his ability to make the
most of his perfect timing.
Stern, who became commissioner in 1984, McHale's fourth season, announced
Thursday that he would step down Feb. 1, 2014.
NBA總裁大衛史騰於週四公開宣佈2014年2月1日退休,史騰從1984年開始擔任NBA總裁,那
一年McHale剛剛進入聯盟四個賽季。從塞爾提克和湖人的宿敵對抗開始,NBA的收視率在史
騰的領導下暴漲,McHale高度稱讚了史騰的能力,讚他總能夠很好地把握機會,在正確的
時間做出完美的決定。
"I think he's done a great job," McHale said. "I was in the league before David
(became commissioner.) I think he's been a great commissioner. A lot of times
in life, you have to match up the right timing with the right plan. The timing
was Magic (Johnson) and Larry (Bird), and the plan was really promoted. It
worked out really well.
"我認為大衛的工作做得非常出色," McHale說,"在他成為總裁之前我就已經進入這個聯
盟,我覺得他是一個非常了不起的總裁。生活當中很多時候,你都必須在正確的時間做出
正確的計畫,他所打造出的魔術強森VS大鳥柏德的時代真得促進了聯盟的發展,那個計畫
實施得非常好。"
"That was the start of the NBA changes. When I first got in the NBA, the Finals
were tape-delayed. It wasn't a huge event as it is now. Within probably two of
three years of David taking over, it became a much, much, much, much bigger
thing."
"NBA從那個時候開始發生改變,當我初入NBA的時候,那時候的總決賽還是實況錄影的時代
,NBA根本不像現在這樣有如此巨大的影響力。大衛接手的兩三年時間裡,NBA聯盟變得非
常、非常、非常、非常重要,影響力越來越大。"

Rockets cap 5-2 preseason with rout of Magic
by Jonathan Feigen
ORLANDO, Fla. - If Rockets coach Kevin McHale had brought a to-do list to
Friday night's preseason finale, he might not have crossed off every line, but
he would have given himself more to do than the game itself did.
如果火箭主帥McHale在球隊最後一場季前賽開始之前列出一份球隊在場上要做的事情的清
單,那麼比賽結束之後球隊肯定不會達到所有要求,但是必須要說的是,他們已經做得足
夠好了,McHale下次可能需要多列一些。
The Rockets could not have hoped for a better conclusion to the preseason,
finishing 5-2 with a 108-92 blowout of the Orlando Magic. Jeremy Lin made a
significant offensive adjustment and had his best scoring game of the
preseason. The bench, led by Carlos Delfino, Shaun Livingston and especially
Greg Smith, dominated.
火箭以108-92擊敗魔術,從而以5勝2負的戰績結束了季前賽的所有比賽,這是他們在季前
賽開始之前肯定不會想到的。林書豪在進攻端進行了調整,打出了季前賽開始以來最出色
的進攻表現。以Carlos Delfino和Shaun Livingston、特別是Greg Smith領銜的板凳們更
是統治了對手。
The Rockets led by as many as 30 points before McHale began playing the guys so
far to the end of the bench that there were not enough seats for them.
在McHale換上板凳席最末端的球員之前,火箭一度領先魔術30分之多。
The Rockets did not assume all the tasks on McHale's list heading into training
camp had been similarly checked off, but as they look to the start of the
regular season against Detroit on Wednesday night, they pointed to significant
progress.
That might not be enough. They had a long way to go. But the strides were
significant and undeniable.
火箭肯定沒有將McHale清單上的所有東西完全呈現出來,但是在他們下週三晚上迎來與底
特律活塞的新賽季揭幕戰前,他們已經取得不小的進步。他們只是前進了一小步,還有很
長的路要走,但是他們的進步有目共睹,不可否認。
"We're moving in the right direction," McHale said. "It's going to be a process
this year. There will be bumps in the road as there always is, especially with
young guys. But we're finding a group of guys and they're getting some
chemistry, which is nice. We had some really nice ball movement tonight.
"我們在朝著正確的方向前進,"McHale說,"這將是一個漫長的過程,前行的道路上總會有
起起伏伏,尤其是我們擁有很多年輕球員。但是我們已經可以看到某些球員之間的化學反
應,這很不錯。今晚,球的移動真得很好。"
"We had the ball zipping from side to side. We had some good stuff happening."
"我們對球的轉移從一側到另一側,一些好的反應正在發生。"
Lin finds the range 林書豪找到了投籃感覺
Through 26 days and seven preseason games, the Rockets found that is how they
must play, pushing tempo and moving the ball. They had assists on 31 of 41
field goals Friday, finishing the preseason averaging 26.4 per game. When the
ball did not move in the preseason or the players tried to go one-on-one, the
Rockets were crushed by Dallas and San Antonio. When they ran and kept the ball
moving, the offense was surprisingly effective.
經過26天7場季前賽的時間,火箭發現了他們新賽季必須堅持的打球方式,那就是加快比賽
節奏,不停地傳導球。對陣魔術的比賽,他們全場命中41球,其中有31是靠助攻得到的,
整個季前賽他們場均助攻26.4次。當他們不堅持這樣的策略,不能很好地轉移球或者去嘗
試一對一的時候,他們被小牛和馬刺打傻了;而當他們這樣做了,他們的進攻相當的有效
率。
"We came to camp not knowing what to expect with all the new faces and young
guys, but we're walking away with very positive, happy vibes going into the
regular season," Kevin Martin said. "When you have combinations like this that
just started playing together - especially with Omer (Asik) who has never been
a starter and Jeremy who just started 25 games and Pat (Patterson) who never
started - you never know what could happen.
"當我們來到訓練營的時候,並不知道會發生什麼,因為有這麼多新面孔和年輕的傢伙,但
是一路走下來,我們贏得了一些比賽,而且發現很多積極的方面,我們產生了很好地共鳴
,並以一種快樂輕鬆的心態迎接常規賽," Kevin Martin說,"當你將這樣一群球員組合在
一起的時候,尤其是Omer (Asik)從沒擔任過首發,林書豪只首發了25場,Pat (Patterson
)從來沒擔任過首發,你永遠不知道會發生什麼。"
"But it seemed like we came together pretty fast."
"但是我們非常快地融合到一起了。"
Lin might have found how he must attack in the season after last season's
breakthrough. With defenses converging on him when he goes to the rim, he often
pulled up for midrange shots. Making just 22.2 percent of his shots in the
preseason, he converted five of 10 on Friday, including three of four
3-pointers, his first made 3s of the preseason.
經過上賽季的爆發,林書豪或許已經發現了他在新賽季應該如何去進攻。對手顯然已經針
對他佈置防守了,尤其是他帶球殺向籃下的時候,很多時候他會進行中距離投籃。季前賽
林書豪的命中率只有22.2%,不過與魔術的比賽他在23分鐘時間裡10投5中,三分球4中3,
這也是他在季前賽當中首次命中三分球。
"I just wanted to make a lot of simple plays," said Lin, who had 13 points,
five assists and no turnovers in 23 minutes. "That's what coach talked to me
about. I wanted to make simple plays, whether it was an open jumper or a quick,
easy pass."
"我只是想打出更多簡單的進攻來,"林書豪說,全場比賽他貢獻13分5次助攻並且沒有一次
失誤,"那就是教練告訴我的,我想要打出更簡單的戰術,無論是空位投籃還是快攻,簡單
的傳球。"
A lot of positives 許多積極的方面
Lin's offensive struggles have overshadowed many preseason developments, but
the Rockets have been thrilled with Asik's defense and rebounding, and
surprised at his ability to contribute offensively by cutting to the rim and as
a passer.
林書豪在進攻的掙扎似乎讓他在季前賽當中取得的進步變得暗淡了,不過Asik的防守和籃
板球,尤其是他切入籃下的得分以及作為一個傳球者在進攻端所做的貢獻。
They have been similarly pleased with their veteran acquisitions Livingston and
Delfino, with both finishing the preseason with strong games. Terrence Jones
removed himself from the pack of young players to take over as Patterson's
backup at power forward. But the bigger surprise could be Smith, who led the
Rockets with 15 points in just 20 minutes Friday and finished the preseason
making 93.3 percent of his shots.
與此同時他們對於兩位老將Delfino和Livingston在季前賽的表現也感到滿意。新秀
Terrence Jones從一群年輕人當中脫穎而出成為Patterson的得力替補。更驚豔的是Smith
,與魔術的比賽他只出戰20分鐘便拿到15分,季前賽他的投籃命中率為93.3%。
Eager to get going
They also have learned if they play their young players together in bunches, it
can be a disaster. They have been overly reliant on Martin to key the offense.
They similarly fall off badly on the defensive end when Asik is not on the
floor.
But heading into preseason, depth was the least of their worries.
火箭還發現如果讓球隊的年輕球員一起上場,可能就會演變成災難。他們在進攻端過度依
賴Martin,而當Asik下場,他們的防守就會很快漏洞百出。不過球隊的陣容深度卻是他們
很少擔心的。
"We definitely made strides, especially defensively," Chandler Parsons said.
"We're definitely getting better there in rotations, helping each other out in
our team defense.
"毫無疑問我們取得了進步,尤其是在防守端," Parsons說,"我們在輪換方面越來越好,
球隊所有人在防守端都彼此協作,互相幫助。"
"I know all our guys are itching for the season to start. It's exciting."
"我知道所有人都已經迫不及待開始新賽季了,這是令人興奮的。"
If nothing else, that is something the Rockets could not say four weeks ago.
時間往回倒撥四個星期,他們肯定不會說這樣的話。
