http://0rz.tw/Qa0Mg Injuries and matchups have forced Kings coach Paul Westphal to be creative with his starting lineups. 受傷和matchup強迫西佛必須常常在先發名單上發揮創意(但老兄，你也太有創意了...) The variation that came out when the Kings played Cleveland on Wednesday was the youngest. 對騎士的先發陣容是最年經的。 How young? Four of the five starters played on the Kings' Summer League team and the fifth, Spencer Hawes, was a player the Kings wanted in Las Vegas with them. 是多幼齒？五個先發裡面有四個還在替國王打夏季聯盟。而第五個呢，Spercer Hawes，國王也希望他可以去打。 Westphal could only laugh when asked what his feelings would have been if told back in July there would be a game in which rookies Tyreke Evans and Omri Casspi started a game with second-year players Jason Thompson and Donté Greene. 當西佛被問到如果他六月的時候知道會有場比賽是reke加omri還有兩個二年級生小湯和綠綠先發有啥感覺，我想西佛會覺得很好笑。 "We played well that (last Summer League) game," Westphal said. "If you had told me that after the first game I would have been 'oh, it's going to be a long season.' " 「我們打得很好，如果你告訴過我會有這樣子一場比賽，哇，這會是很漫長的一季」 That was the youngest starting lineup in the Sacramento-era of the franchise, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. 這是沙城年代最年輕的先發陣容。 The average age was 21 years, 269 days. Thompson was the oldest starter at 23. Casspi, Greene and Hawes are 21 while Evans is 20. 平均21歲又269天。小湯最老，23歲。omri、綠綠和Hawes都21，reke20。 The Memphis Grizzlies were the last team to start a younger group on Nov. 5, 2008 (O.J. Mayo, Rudy Gay, Marc Gasol, Mike Conley, Darrell Arthur). 灰熊是上一隻用年輕人軍團先發的球隊，在08年11月5號。 The Kings have used 11 different starting lineups this season. Thompson is the only King to start every game this season. 國王本季已經用了11種不同的先發陣容，小湯是唯一個每場都先發的人。 It's not the ideal situation for Westphal, who wouldn't mind not shuffling lineups. 這對西佛來說並不是理想狀態，他並不介意固定先發陣容。 "I'm looking forward to the day where we can just trot out our lineup and that be it, but we're not there yet," Westphal said. "What it is really is we want to make sure we can guard reasonably well and still score and have a chance to get good shots. 「我很期待有天可以找出我們的陣容，然後就不動了，但我們還不到那個地步。我們想要確定我們可以防守得很好，仍然可以得分還有有個機會能夠有好的投籃」西佛說 "That's what it all amounts to. It's not like oh, he had a good game last time so I'm going to start him." 「那這就是所有的依據，並不像是，哇上一場他打得很好，那我讓他先發吧」 Saturday night's starting lineup against the Lakers was Evans, Udrih, Greene, Thompson and Hawes. That lineup was 0-1 as a starting unit this season. 今天的先發陣容目前戰績為0-1。 The lineup is bound to look different in a few weeks when Kevin Martin returns from injury. 過沒多久KM回來後先發又會看起來不一樣。 Westphal, however, remained pleased with that group from Summer League. 西佛還是對年輕組滿喜歡的。 "I'd have to say the one thing they share is they get after it," Westphal said. "They're all trying to get better. They're making each other better because of that. And that's something we couldn't know in the summer but they've shown that. That'll pretty much guarantee each one of their success in this league long term as long as they keep that up." 「他們都想要更好，因此他們使得彼此更好，那就是我們在夏季聯盟所不知道的。如果他們保持下去，那他們在這聯盟肯定會成功」 ========================================================= 我也滿喜歡年輕組 -- -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 220.130.141.241
