http://www.sacbee.com/kings/story/2387592.html Shooting better than 50 percent for a season is nothing new to Beno Udrih. It's just that most basketball fans in the United States have not seen that Udrih on the floor. 投籃命中率超過50%對Beno來說並不是什麼新鮮事，但對於大部分的美國球迷來說還沒看過那樣子的Beno. Before the San Antonio Spurs drafted him in 2004, Udrih had a reputation as a good shooter that his statistics in Europe supported. 在被馬刺選中之前，Beno在歐洲就是個好射手。 Udrih's shooting percentage in his first five NBA seasons wasn't horrible, but he wasn't proficient enough to be considered a player who could be counted on to lead his team in shooting. 第一年命中率不差，但也不夠好。 Udrih trails only Jon Brockman for the Kings lead in shooting percentage, but Brockman has taken just 28 shots this season. Beno只輸給洛克人，但洛克人本季只有28投。 Udrih's 54.6 percent shooting from the field is second among guards in the NBA. In his past seven games, Udrih has made 64.4 percent (38 of 59). Udrih credits coach Paul Westphal with giving him the freedom to show he is better than his NBA career 44.5 percent shooting percentage entering the season. 在nba後衛中排第2。過去7場比賽，命中率64.4%。Beno將功勞歸功於西佛給他空間去展現他自己。 Udrih said his recent stretch of accuracy has happened before, just "not in the NBA." Beno說之前就有過這樣的表現了，只是不是在nba "I just never got the opportunity to play," Udrih said. "I think coach Paul and all the assistant coaches make it easier. We can just go out there and just play and have some fun and play basketball." 「我只是從未得到過機會去展現，我想教練和所有的助教使得事情更容易了。我們只是打球」 When Udrih says "play," he doesn't just mean minutes. He's speaking of his style. Westphal has encouraged Udrih to be aggressive, and that has paid off for the guard, who has not shot better than 50 percent in his first five seasons. 當Beno說「打球」並不只是代表時間。他在講他的風格。西佛一直鼓勵他要具侵略性，而這的確有效。 It's a contrast to Udrih's shooting before he arrived in the NBA. Udrih had only one season below 50 percent since earning Slovenian Rookie of the Year honors in the 1999-2000 season. That came when he played for Maccabi Tel Aviv in 2002-03 and shot 46.4 percent. Whatever Westphal told Udrih, it's working. Udrih's 13.6-point average and shooting percentage are above his career averages. He is making 44.4 percent of his three-point attempts, too. Beno平均13.6分，投籃命中率也都高於生涯平均。三分球命中率44.4%。 "He's really being aggressive. He's in attack mode," said San Antonio's Gregg Popovich, who coached Udrih his first three seasons in the NBA. "He's a really skilled kid. He's got great speed, he's a great passer, he can knock down shots. I think he's starting to feel more comfortable and he's being aggressive and just playing the game." 「他真的很有侵略性，他處於攻擊模式，他是個很有技巧的孩子，他有很棒的速度，他是個很棒的傳球者，他可以投進球。我想他正要開始感到很舒服」波波說 Westphal said it takes time to learn what each player does best. He's learned he wants Udrih to be assertive on offense. 西佛說要得知每個球員怎樣最好需要花時間。他已經知道他想要Beno在進攻上更有侵略性 "I try to be consistent and I try to be encouraging as long as (players are) playing hard and trying to play to their strengths," Westphal said. "I think that's how I wanted to be treated as a player. I didn't want to be fighting with my coach over something. If they're doing their best, I like to encourage them." 「我試著穩定，而且我試著當球員很認真而且試著利用他的長處就去鼓勵他們，我想那就是我當球員時所想要被對待的。我不想要和我的教練為了某些東西而爭吵，如果他們正在盡他們的全力，我喜歡去鼓勵他們」 So don't expect Udrih to stop putting up shots. After all, he has Westphal's permission. 所以不要預期Beno會停止投籃。畢竟，西佛准許他這麼做。 "Oh yeah, he definitely tells me to be more aggressive," Udrih said. "I hear that from a coach, personally, it tells you he has confidence in you. I just felt better after that and more confident after that." 「對啊，他的確告訴我要更侵略性一點，我從教練口中聽到那個，對於個人而言，這代表他對你有信心。之後我感覺更好，更有自信。」 Udrih's recent seven games, in which he's averaging 13.4 points a game, have all been as a reserve. He missed the Kings' win over the New York Knicks on Nov. 25 because of the flu and has come off the bench since. Udrih had replaced injured guard Kevin Martin in the starting lineup, but he hasn't changed his style now that he's a reserve again. "I was sick one day and then Donté (Greene) had a good game," Udrih said. "So coach decided to start Donté and I'm fine with that. He's the coach and I shouldn't really complain about that. I'm happy I'm here, and when I get on the court I try to be as aggressive as I can." 「我那時候有一天生病，綠綠打得不錯，所以教練決定讓綠綠先發，我沒關係。他是教練，我不應該去抱怨。我很開心我在這裡，當我上場時，我會盡我所能具侵略性」 ================================================================ 今日一字「aggressive」 -- -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 220.130.141.241
