[外電] Kings unlikely to make blockbuster trade
http://0rz.tw/k493T
Might the Kings be among the more active teams?
國王會很主動嗎?
Possibly, but don't expect a blockbuster. Geoff Petrie has no intention of
swapping one of his premier assets (Kevin Martin) for someone else's garbage,
and thus far, he has been underwhelmed by offers. He is more likely to move
someone like Kenny Thomas and his expiring contract or Andres Nocioni and his
hefty deal, particularly given the congestion at small forward.
也許吧,但不要期待有爆炸性的交易。Petrie沒有意願拿最棒的球員去換別人的垃圾。他
比較有可能換像KT或Noc。
Meanwhile, here are a few observations, suggestions and musings, looking
ahead:
‧ Quality big men are always in demand – always – and the Kings remain
among the needy. Toronto All-Star Chris Bosh destroyed their interior defense
Sunday, receiving little or no resistance from Spencer Hawes, Jason Thompson
or Donté Greene.
優質大個總是我們的第一需求。Bosh在禮拜天給我們的禁區好好上了一課,他完全沒有遭
受到Hawes、JT或綠綠的抵抗。
So what are the choices? The usual characters. Marcus Camby. Samuel
Dalembert. Tyson Chandler. Troy Murphy. Emeka Okafor. Possibly Andris
Biedrins. And some within the Kings' organization advocate packaging wing
players and contracts for Chicago Bulls power forward Tyrus Thomas.
那有什麼選擇呢?勉族、大懶伯、泰山、莫非和Okafor。逼菌斯也有可能。一些國王組織
內的人也主張用鋒線球員去跟公牛換TT。
‧ While Hawes' inconsistency must be placed in context with his age (21), he
is an offensively skilled finesse performer who would benefit enormously from
a physical defender on the frontline.
Hawes進攻很有技巧,但他必須搭配一個很硬朗的防守隊友。
‧ Tyreke Evans and Omri Casspi are excited but admittedly exhausted as they
prepare for tonight's Rookie Challenge.
reke和omri很興奮,但他們會因為準備今晚的新秀挑戰賽而累壞。
"One of our coaches said, 'The thing you have to do with Tyreke is tell him
there's three minutes left in the game,' " Paul Westphal joked after Evans
directed Tuesday's comeback at Madison Square Garden.
「我們其中一個教練說,你唯一需要對reke做的就是告訴他比賽只剩三分鐘了」西佛在
reke再一次逆轉的時候開玩笑地說(我同意....)
The slender Casspi appears even more depleted. He is visibly worn down by the
physical demands of an 82-game schedule and the constant and inordinate
attention he receives as the first Israeli in the NBA.
苗條的omri出現了疲態。
‧ Several months ago, Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson described Westphal, his
former coach with the Phoenix Suns, as an unconventional thinker whose
substitutions would leave people "shaking their heads." K.J. wasn't kidding.
Neck strains abound at Arco Arena.
幾個月前,市長描述他太陽時期的教練西佛說,他是個非傳統思考的人,他的人選替換會
讓人們搖頭。市長沒有在開玩笑,Arco一堆脖子扭到的人XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Westphal doesn't coach games as much as he moves bodies on a chess board. Of
course, players prefer consistency only when they're the players consistently
on the court.
西佛教導比賽並不像他在玩西洋旗一樣。當然,球員還是比較喜歡可以有固定時間在場上
Part of Westphal's job during the duration of the season will be to provide
Petrie with insider information. And, after the trade deadline, expect the
coach to settle on something more closely resembling a rotation.
西佛在球季中有一部分的工作是提供內線消息給Petrie。在交易死線後,預期教練會更確
定重組的人選(不會像現在這樣一直試)
‧ Francisco García expects to return within the next two weeks, but NBA
types continue to express disbelief about the incident that fractured his
right forearm and damaged his wrist. Lifting 90 pounds with each arm? While
positioned on a physio ball? This skinny guy? I still can't believe it,
either.
Cisco預計會在兩個禮拜內回來,但NBA還是持續在懷疑那場意外。每支手舉90磅?在
physio ball上?這個瘦弱的人?我也仍然不能相信。
Finally, a few thoughts on the recent trip:
‧ Evans enjoyed his best stretch as a playmaking point guard, as a floor
leader who looked to involve teammates and took over offensively when needed,
say, in the closing minutes.
reke在享受他最好的定位,PG,場上領導者,讓隊友融入進攻,當需要時再接管整個比賽
‧ This Evans-Martin backcourt deserves a long look. Though still not
convinced that the two guards are complementary in the long term, if nothing
else, Martin is playing with more of a bounce. The better he plays, the more
attractive he is for 29 other teams or for the Kings.
雙槍值得長遠的觀察。雖然還沒有辦法確信雙槍可以互補,如果沒有意外,KM會反彈回來
的。他打得越好,對國王和其他29支球隊的吸引力越大。
‧ I liked Westphal's decision to go with a zone in the deciding moments
against the Knicks. But the Kings' defense remains the biggest obstacle to
rising in the standings. Hence, the need to add a big man, but also for
Martin and the wing players to be more attentive to the defensive end.
我喜歡西佛在對尼克的關鍵時刻用區域防守。但國王防守還是最大的一個障礙。因此,他
們需要新增一個大個子,但KM和鋒線球員也必須更專注在防守端。
