http://www.sacbee.com/kings/story/2039010.html The pain has worn off now, with Kings shooting guard Kevin Martin concerned only with the physical kind and refusing to acknowledge the emotional. 傷痛現在已經逝去。 He swears there are no hard feelings, that the criticism he endured related to his left ankle last season didn't linger like the injury itself. No, the healing process has run its course. And Martin, who missed 31 games in all while so many fans and some media questioned his toughness in the following months, is ready to bounce back. 他發誓沒有難受的感覺，上一季左腳踝的傷勢不再困擾著他。KM上個球季缺席了31場比賽球迷和媒體都在質疑他的強度，而他已經準備好要反彈了。 "(The ankle) just needed rest," Martin said earlier this month while watching the Kings at the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas. 「只是需要休息而已」KM說 "It's starting to feel much better now. I'm watching the workout tape from when we were (training) in Florida last (summer), and it's amazing watching the tape how explosive I was. It's starting to get back there. I'm not going to put a percentage on it or anything, but I feel damn good right now." 「現在開始感覺好很多，我在看去年夏天訓練的帶子，很驚訝我那時候的爆發力。要開始回到那時候，我不會說好多少，但我現在感覺真的是棒透了」 That wasn't the case before, when the absence of answers about the ankle that was first injured Nov. 9 led to questions from inside the organization and beyond. Martin – who had a mixture of ligament damage, bone bruises and a bad sprain – didn't need a doctor to tell him he didn't feel right. Evidence supported those facts, not the least of which was Martin's newfound habit of playing below the rim. 11月時第一次受傷導致疑問從內部產生。KM那時候是肌腱損傷、骨頭受傷和糟透的扭傷，不需要醫生跟他說他有多不舒服，從他那時候上籃的動作就可以看得出來。 But statistics turned the Martin argument the other way, as his ability to score in spite of his limitation increased the scrutiny about his defensive shortcomings. Martin's season finale was the ultimate example, as he scored 50 points in an overtime loss to Golden State before missing the final eight games. 但統計數字又說出不一樣的事實，儘管他的防守令人詬病，但他得分的能力無庸置疑，在對上勇士時得了50分。 "People can say what (they) want; that's fine with me," said Martin, who averaged 24.6 points per game on 42 percent shooting in his fifth season. "(But) I could go to the mirror and look at myself. I'm out there playing on one leg, averaging 25 (points per game) on one leg, and you can say what you want. 「人們可以說出他們想要的，我是不在意，但我可能會走到鏡子前，看著我自己。我現在只有用一隻腳在打球，用一隻腳平均得25分，那你可以說你想要說的」 "It's all about winning. That's one thing I've learned. If we were in a 40-win season with my same kind of stats, you could say, 'Oh, he's an All-Star, one of the best two-guards in the league,' stuff like that. So it's just a point of getting the team on the same page and getting back there to winning a lot." 「一切都是因為輸贏。這是我所學到的，如果我們這季有40勝，我的數據還是一樣，你可能會說「噢，他是個全明星，聯盟中最好的後衛之一」像那樣子的話。所以就只是要讓球隊一直贏球」 To that end, he approves of the Kings' offseason moves to date. For all the fanfare surrounding the possible drafting of Spanish point guard Ricky Rubio, Martin rooted for Tyreke Evans all along. He likes the toughness the rookie should bring and the fact he can contribute immediately. 他贊同國王季外的作為。所有的球迷都希望選Rubio，而KM獨鐘於Evans。他喜歡他的強度而且他可以馬上有所貢獻。 And when asked about the notion that opposing defenses will have to focus somewhere other than him, Martin's eyes light up. The pleased expression remains when Paul Westphal is mentioned, as Martin raved about the coach who will be his fifth in six seasons. 當被問到對方的防守焦點可能會有所改變，不會光盯他一個，KM眼睛就發亮了。當提到保羅，他就開心了起來，保羅是他六個球季中第五個教練。 "I love him," Martin said. "It's the way he talks about the game. The first time (they met), he said, 'What do you want from all this? Where do you feel comfortable on the floor?' It was nice to finally talk to a coach like that. He's very wise. Very wise. 「我愛他，這是他談論比賽的方式，第一次會面時，他說「你想要什麼？在場上時，哪裡讓你感到舒服？」很開心最後能和這樣子的教練談話，他非常有智慧」 "I love his coaching personality, just because it feels like back in the (Rick) Adelman days when this whole organization was just gliding by with no uptightness or things like that. I think it's going to be great. I hope it's going to be great." 「我愛他的教練特質，只是因為就像回到矮豆人時代，我想這一切會很棒，我希望會很棒 As always, Martin is working hard in the offseason. After staying off the ankle for nearly a month after the season, he began a routine inspired by Kobe Bryant. 如往常一樣，KM在季外都會非常努力。在因為腳踝而休息將近一個月後，他開始一些例行練習，都是因為Kobe The Lakers star has long been known for beginning his offseason workouts at 6 a.m., pushing himself to wake up when it's dark and arrive at the gym long before anyone else. Martin pushed the schedule back a bit, starting at 6:30 a.m. four to five days a week for much of the summer while lifting weights four days a week as well. He arrives with two of his closest friends from his hometown of Zanesville, Ohio, then executes the workout routine provided by his personal coach, David Thorpe, before returning at night for another session. 這名湖人巨星很早之前大家就知道他在季外時會在早上六點就訓練，當天還是黑的時候就起床到體育館，比任何人都還要早非常多。KM晚了一點，六點半開始。一個禮拜做四到五天，而且一個禮拜重訓四天。他和他的兩位摯友一起做著他私人教練給他的課表，在晚上訓練之前。 "I just decided I was getting up early to see where my dedication was because we're trying to turn this team around – the mentality on the team and the whole organization," Martin said. "Turn the lights on and then turn them off, too. That's what I'm doing this summer. It's a lot tougher than what I thought it was." 「我只是決定我要早點起床去看我能貢獻什麼，因為我們現在正試著要改變這隻球隊和組織的心態，打開燈，然後關燈(這是在說第一個到，最後一個走)，這就是我在這個夏天所做的。這真的比我以前所想像的還難很多」 Martin had learned from Bryant up close last summer, playing with him on the Team USA Select team and impressing among the Olympians. But he wasn't invited back this summer, with Martin insisting he wasn't disappointed or surprised and spending his time with other endeavors instead. KM去年從Kobe身上學到很多，在靶子隊的時候和他一起打球。但他這個夏天並沒有被邀請，KM堅持他並不失望也不驚訝，而是更加努力 His four-day basketball camp begins today at Capital Christian High School, and he heads for Indonesia in mid-August for an NBA-run charity trip to which he was invited. And with the pain of the past behind him, he said he'll remain patient about the Kings and their future. 他為期四天的籃球營今天開始，而且他會去參加NBA慈善活動。傷痛都已經過去，他說他將會對國王和他們的未來保持耐心。 He is entering the third season of his five-year contract worth approximately $53 million, with the prospect of being traded more possible than before, if only because 17-win teams must be open to everything. Martin knows that much, but said he hopes to see the turnaround all the way through. 他正要進入五年合約中的第三年，被交易的可能比之前大很多，因為17勝的球隊什麼都有可能。KM很了解，但他說他希望可以看到轉變。 "You definitely want (the Kings' rebuilding) to speed up," he said. "You definitely don't want to be scoring 25 (points) for no reason. … But I've still got time. I definitely want to be part of this. I'm just along for the ride." 「你絕對想要加速，你絕對不想要沒有理由地得個25分。但我仍然還有時間，我絕對想要成為這些事的一份子，我跟著大家走」 ============================================================= KM的決心，這就是為什麼我一直說不能換他走，一直這麼喜歡他的原因他絕對不是那種會擺爛的傢伙，他是國王的國王。 KM說教練怎麼樣怎麼樣，我不予置評，有可能是場面話，但又怎麼樣呢？難道要他說這教練爛透了？還是要說這教練有待考驗哦！？而且他怎麼吹捧教練跟他自己的表現有什麼關係？第二，一直有大部分的人認為他拿最高薪就應該要怎麼樣怎麼樣，KM說得很清楚了，如果今天球隊有四十勝，我相信你們會說他是聯盟中最好的得分機器之一。球隊的戰績只是一個人的問題嗎？防守爛是誰的問題？供輸不好是誰的問題？之前已經講過了，如果戰績不好就單怪一個最高薪的，那Kobe早該走人了，PP早該走人了，Bosh早該走人了，Wade早該走人了。一隻球隊要強沒這麼簡單好嗎。第三，什麼叫作身體力行？一個球員願意每天早上六點半到球館練習這叫作沒有身體力行嗎？難道這還要叫作沒有老大的自覺嗎？全聯盟有幾個球員有這樣做的？更不用說這個你們所謂的沒有身體力行的人只拿屈屈一千出頭。更不用說他為了球隊可是連開刀都不願意，因為他想要和球隊一起奮鬥，因為他覺得他有責任跟球隊在一起，隊中許多小老弟需要他這個老大哥的幫助。因此他寧願忍著疼痛打球，連灌籃都不行，只能上籃，你就知道他有多痛苦了。這叫作只會嘴炮的球員嗎？因為湖人戰績好，所以Kobe手指不開刀就是老大，因為國王戰績爛，所以KM不開刀就是嘴炮嗎？真是好見解。第四，版上應該很多人對Petrie很不爽。但有沒有去分析過或者去看過別人的分析，從選秀到現在，他的表現絕對是非常優秀的。為什麼簽May不簽屌古之前已經講過了，不再贅述選秀選到這三個表現如何相信也有看到，雖然只是在夏季聯盟，但是如果連夏季聯盟都不能屠殺的話，那還談什麼在NBA發光發熱。有空的人可以去下載來看五場比賽，Evans的表現絕對比數據上好上非常多，不管是節奏的掌控、視野、製造空檔的能力、傳球技術都比原先想像的好得非常多，如果隊友都有把握住，他的助攻平均可以再多個3、4。球隊有沒有他在表現差很多。或許Petrie去年在交易並沒有太亮眼的表現(是因為以前太亮眼嗎)，但也是中規中矩，有達到球隊的需求(省錢中補到球隊要的)，大米其實並不好賣，他不是傳統中鋒，光這一點就去掉多少球隊了。鮭魚有不傳球的問題，在可以進季後賽的球隊中，哪一個不是有好的得分點的，要再多一個鮭魚真的是很不容易。要省錢是誰的錯？是他沒錢了嗎？在有限資源中達到最大效益是總管的責任沒錯，但要求不合理的效益是對的嗎？今年FA前場符合國王要的根本沒多少人，我們要堪用又不要薪水高，在這個缺長人的年代只要可以用的通常薪水就不會低到哪裡去，所以我們只能撿那種有疑慮別人不敢用，但因為我們在重建，可以賭一賭的人。為什麼不簽屌古，因為他貴啊，除非他願意降價，但我想他至少會要求2、3M，不過國王應該不會答應他的要求。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 220.130.141.241 ※ 編輯: eliczone 來自: 220.130.141.241 (07/20 16:41)
