另一篇表弟的文章，作者同上一篇Favors的文章選秀觀察：DeMarcus Cousins http://tinyurl.com/y5csoeb 19 years old 19歲 6'11"; 270 lbs. 六呎十一吋；兩百七十磅 Kentucky, Freshman 肯塔基；大一 A full grown man, playing against 6th graders. That's what Cousins looks playing against College competition. He's a tremendously imposing physical specimen, standing every bit of 6'11", and looking like old time (1960's & 1970's) prototypical NBA Centers like Bill Lambier or Willis Reed - thick chest, broad shoulders. But Cousins is not just an impressive physical presence - he also has an impressive skill set to go with his physical gifts. Standing nearly 7-feet, and weighing in at 270 with a condor-like wingspan and great hands; Cousins still looks like he's got a little baby fat on him. He's got the ideal size to play Center in the NBA - but he's also mobile and agile. There isn't a better low-post scorer in college basketball. I'll let that sink in for a few seconds. Cousins is averaging 15.9 points, 10 rebounds and 1.8 blocks per game; but he's only playing a little over 22 minutes a game. His per 40 minute numbers are absolutely gaudy: 27.6 points, 17.6 rebounds and 3.1 blocks per 40 minutes. Those are scary numbers. 大人打小孩，這就是表弟大學比賽的寫照。他的身材非常強壯，領先所有六呎十一吋的球員，他很像Bill Lambier和Willis Reed這類六○、七○年代有著厚重胸膛和寬闊肩膀的老式中鋒，但表弟不光只有身材，他的技巧也是一等一的罩。身高近七呎，體重兩百七十磅，禿鷹般的翼展以及一雙大手，雖然表弟的身材看起來有點虛胖，但他符合NBA中鋒的標準身材而且很靈活敏捷。如果這還不是大學籃壇的最佳低位好手，那你再看看下列數據，表弟平均成績15.9分 10籃板1.8阻攻，注意，他的平均上場時間只有22分鐘，將平均時間以40分鐘計算的話，他的數據變得很華麗，27.6分17.6籃板3.1阻攻，相當恐怖的數據。 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MBT3uwiJ1g&feature=player_embedded

Cousins is able to establish and hold deep position in the post and rarely gets pushed off the blocks. His long arms gives teammates a target that the opponent simply cannot get to. He's able to handle the ball well for a player his size. He has very good footwork around the basket, and when he's not dunking, he shows a surprising number of post moves. He's shown a baby hook, with either hand, a jump hook, tear drop, various pivots, drop steps (usually from the right side) and spin moves to the middle. I even saw him do an up and under against North Carolina. He's got no problems finishing through contact, even very heavy contact. He's shooting a respectable 54.5% from the field; and he gets to the line a lot (7.1 times per game) and converts at a 63.7% rate. That percentage could be better, but he has a good, consistent stroke and he should be able to improve that percentage. 表弟很容易就在低位搶到好位置而且很少被防守者推出來，他的長手讓隊友輕鬆就能把球吊給他，對手也不容易從後面撥掉，以他這種體型的球員而言，他持球的技巧很好，禁區周圍的腳步極佳，他的低位進攻手段很多，小鉤射﹝雙手皆可﹞、起跳鉤射、單手拋射、多變的移動步伐、接球後直接卡住對手轉入籃框內側投籃﹝多半在右側 ﹞以及中距離的轉身過人。對北卡時，我還看他用過up and under﹝背框接到球後先向一側轉身佯投將對手晃起後，把腳步採向另一側下球向前移動後投籃﹞，強烈肢體碰撞後的投籃對他也沒問題，他的投籃命中率為54.5%，製造犯規的機率很高，每場能上罰球線7.1次，平均罰球命中率為63.7%，這樣的表現已經不錯，但他還有在更進步的可能。 Speaking of shots, Cousins does have a fairly good mid-range game. He rarely brings it out, but the few times I've seen him shoot a jumper, he looked smooth. His jump shot is mechanically sound, with a good release and nice rotation on the ball. That's one of the reasons I think he can be a better free throw shooter. 表弟的中距離不錯，他很少投中距離，但我有看過他投幾次，他的出手機制很好，這也是為何我認為他的罰球還會進步的原因。 However, Cousins is not what you'd call "unselfish." He's more of a black hole on offense. He's not much of a passer, once he gets the ball and he rarely gives it up without taking a shot. He runs the floor well, but otherwise, he's got only average athleticism. However, his great size and strength help to mitigate that weakness somewhat. 表弟是個黑洞球員，很少傳球，接到球後幾乎都會選擇出手，他在球場上的跑動狀況不錯，但他的運動能力一般，不特別出色，不過他壯碩的身材可以彌補這項缺點。 Defensively, Cousins can block shots ... well, he can block a LOT of shots and sometimes he can block shots just by standing in the paint with his arms up. Most of the time, he looks like he's putting forth effort on the defensive end, if only because John Calipari would bench him if he wasn't trying Calipari. He cannot be backed down, at least at the college level, and it's extremely difficult for opposing Centers to get shots over him. 防守上表弟的封蓋能力突出，有時候甚至不用跳只要把手舉起來就能搧掉對手的球，但多數時間表弟願意把心力放在防守上是因為教練Calipari威脅他敢不執行教練的命令就要讓他守開特力。還有表弟很難被推動﹝至少在大學層級﹞，所以對手中鋒想要在他面前投籃絕非易事。 Cousins is a terrific rebounder, especially at the defensive end. His 17.6 rebounds per 40 minutes attest to that fact. However, I'm not totally enamored with his rebounding technique. It seems that he rarely blocks out, and sometimes rebounds with one hand. He's picked up some lazy habits because he's just simply bigger, and stronger than his opponents at the college level, and he'll find out that you just cannot rebound that way at the next level. There are bigger (taller), more athletic guys in the NBA that will jump higher than him, and there are guys that will use their body, timing and fundamentals (David Lee, Kevin Love) to out rebound him in the NBA. 表弟的籃板能力出色，特別是在保護防守籃板上，平均40分鐘有17.6籃板，但我不喜歡他抓籃板的方式，他很少卡位，而且有時會用一隻手去抓籃板，他倚仗自己的身材優勢在大學層級無往不利，他會發現到了下一個層級後不能靠這種方式抓籃板，到時候會有更多高大而且更會跳的對手，而且他們卡位和抓籃板的技巧更好，會不斷從他眼前把籃板抓走。 Cousins lacks anything resembling quickness - and his deficiencies on defense are exposed when defending smaller, quicker opponents. Cousins will have a lot of trouble at the next level defending the pick-and-roll, or switching out on smaller players. He's also not especially comfortable guarding the perimeter, and the NBA is peppered with Centers that roam around the three-point line. 表弟敏捷度不夠，這項缺點在防守速度快的矮小球員時會被放大，到了NBA後，表弟守檔拆或遇上錯位防守應該會有很大的麻煩，他也不太會守外線球員，而NBA有很多中鋒都有外線能力。 There are also obviously questions about Cousins maturity and mental toughness. There were some incidents in high school where he displayed some anger issues and there was that forearm shiver incident against Louisville. But for the most part, with the entire college basketball world waiting for Cousins to explode, those issues have not materialized. Cousins has his supporters, like Calipari and John Wall, and there's always the problem that small issues are sometimes taken out of context or blown up way out of proportion, as Brian Eldridge points out in his article at Scout.com 表弟的成熟度和心智強度有很大的問題，高中時就因為脾氣鬧過一些事，在路易斯維爾也發生過揮臂事件，不過當整個大學籃球界都在等著看笑話時，表弟並沒有真正的鬧過事。表弟也有支持他的人，像是Calipari和John Wall，他們有時候也會出現一些小問題，Brian Eldridge的文章有特別提過。﹝http://0rz.tw/nbt00﹞ That's not to say that Cousins is the epitome of teamwork and unselfishness. While Kentucky was blowing out East Tennessee State in the second half, an ETS player drove to the basket, and while Patrick Patterson and Perry Stevenson defended for Kentucky, Cousins leaked out on the break. Patterson and Stevenson battled with three ETS players before one of the East Tennessee State players finally put the ball in the basket. As John Wall brought the ball up court, he spotted Cousins under their offensive basket and hit him with a pass for an easy dunk. Now I don't bring this up to show John Wall's vision, or Cousin's ability to dunk; but rather to show that while his team was battling on defense, Cousins was sprinting down court for a blue bird. 有一次肯大大勝東田納西州大的下半場比賽，對方球員切入時，表弟偷跑到對方半場，留下Patterson和Stevenson面對對方三名進攻球員，對手順利得分，球發回場上，Wall立刻發現在對方籃下的表弟，直接把球長傳給表弟灌籃得分，我特地提這段不是要稱讚Wall的視野，也不是要誇表弟的灌籃，而是當你的隊友在防守上奮戰時，你卻像隻輕巧的小藍鳥跑到對方半場？ On another play, he was fouled hard under the basket; and showed a little disgust? Anger? I'm not sure what the right word is, but he's gotta know that until he's a better Free Throw shooter (63%), teams are going to foul him rather than let him just go up and dunk the ball. The CBS announcers noticed it and talked about Cousins attempts to "control his emotions" this year, and that he had made real strides. 另外一次進攻，他被對手下重手犯規，表弟立刻作出不悅的舉動，他必須知道除非他的罰球更上一層樓﹝63%﹞，否則對手寧願對他犯規也不願讓他輕鬆灌籃，CBS主播就特別提出表弟要懂得控制自己的情緒才能更上一層樓。 STRENGTHS: Great size, NBA body, Strength, Huge wingspan Good hands, great footwork, Excellent Touch Establishes, and maintains deep position in post Offensively skilled, post moves Ability to finish through contact Great rebounder Productivity, ability to get to the FT line Dominates inside Nice mid-range jump shot Above average ball handling skills for a big man Shot-blocking 優點： NBA等級的身材，強壯，極佳的翼展，手大，腳步好，投籃手感極佳，懂得在低位取得好位置並不易被推開，進攻技巧和低位步伐成熟，能夠在碰撞後得分，籃板能力優秀，高效率，犯規製造機，禁區統治者，中距離不錯，以長人而言持球技巧出眾，具封蓋能力。 WEAKNESSES: Conditioning, motor, effort, focus, activity level Not especially athletic Sometimes lacks effort on defense Defensive Fundamentals Lack of quickness Intangibles: Maturity, work ethic, Basketball IQ Anger issues? High bust potential 缺點：自我控制，不夠積極，對球隊的影響力，不夠專注，活動範圍，防守會恍神，防守不扎實，不夠快，不夠成熟，工作態度不佳，籃球I.Q.低，易怒？容易失控。 Talk about a dilemma! General managers must look at the physical gifts and the skills of Demarcus Cousins and dream that he could be the next great center. A franchise cornerstone type player. A HoF type player. And they are right. The physical gifts and skills are all there. 表弟是把雙面刃，各隊總管都會垂涎他的身體條件和技巧，寄望他能成為下一個偉大中鋒，建隊基石型的球員，有名人堂的潛力，這些都是事實，他的天賦就擺在那不會騙人。 But then there's the other side of the coin: those pesky intangibles. Those things that are hard to quantify with statistics, but easy to see on and off the court and easy to put into words: Work Ethic. Coachability. Basketball IQ. Effort. Focus. Maturity. Mental Toughness. Competitiveness. If those things are there, they can turn a good college player into a great NBA player. But if they are not, well, you know the rest. 但從另一面來看，他的負面態度在數據上並不會顯現出來，但不論在場內外你都很容易看出來而且形容的出來：職業道德、受教程度、籃球智商、影響力、專注力、成熟度、心智強度和競爭心態。如果具備這些條件，就能讓一個好的大學球員變成一個傑出的NBA球員，如果不具備，你應該也知道會發生甚麼事。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 123.192.13.144 ※ 編輯: kingpredrag 來自: 123.192.13.144 (04/25 21:43)
