來源:http://goo.gl/QhDr3P 原文作者: Kevin O'Connor Forget offense. Kentucky center Willie Cauley-Stein is one of the best defensive prospects to come into the NBA Draft in a long, long time. 先忽略他的進攻吧。肯大中鋒WCS是NBA選秀長久以來最好的潛力防守球員之一 Wllie Cauley-Stein is the king of the jungle for the ferocious Kentucky Wildcats because he has the speed to chase down fleeing prey and the size and length to devour them once they're within his grasp. It looked like National Geographic when Cauley-Stein corralled Jerian Grant into a corner and forced the doomed gazelle into a desperate game-winning attempt. The shot missed and the Wildcats remained undefeated. WCS是擁有兇猛實力的肯塔基野貓隊中的叢林之王，因為他有速度能夠追捕那些逃走的獵物，又有優秀的體型，當獵物在控制範圍時一下就能把他們吃乾抹淨。當WCS將Jerian Grant(今年NBA巫師選秀球員)驅趕到底角並迫使他投出孤注一擲的致勝球的時候就像在看國家地理頻道中那些命數已盡的瞪羚一樣。球沒進，肯大繼續保持不敗。影片聯結:http://streamable.com/4hlv?t=7.8 It was an extraordinary play, but those who have watched Kentucky at all this season shouldn't have been shocked. At 7'0 with a 7'2 wingspan, Cauley-Stein's basic measurements are impressive. But the numbers he logged this past year at the Kentucky Combine put him in unique territory. 這是很驚人的一個play，但是那些看過整季肯大比賽的可不會被嚇到。 7呎的身高以及7呎二吋的臂展，WCS的身材條件是令人印象深刻的。但他過去這一年在肯大創下的數據將他推向另一個境界。 http://i.imgur.com/Y2cqznr.png

No big man has ever recorded a quicker time in the lane agility drill, which assesses body control and change of direction ability. And with a 147-inch maximum vertical reach, few bigs even come close to Cauley-Stein's length. But Cauley-Stein athleticism doesn't only shine in his practice shorts. John Calipari has used his bouncy big man as a defensive stopper by having him harass the opponent's best player, regardless of their position. The 21-year-old has the lateral quickness to defend at least three positions in the NBA, though he can defend all five in college while wearing a blindfold. Big men should not be able to stay with NBA-quality guards like Grant. 從來沒有長人在lane agility*(註1)訓練中作出這麼快的紀錄，一個需要控制身體平衡與變向的能力的訓練。接著147吋的最高垂直摸高，甚至也只有少數的長人能夠接近這數字。不過WCS的運動能力可不是只有在練習時才傑出而已。肯大教練John Calipari將他這位活力十足的大個子當成防守悍將去不斷騷擾對手最好的球員，不管是哪個位置。這位21歲的球員擁有快速的橫向移動能力讓他在NBA至少能夠守三個位置，雖然他在大學是隨便1~5號都能守。沒有長人能夠黏著像Grant這種NBA等級的後衛。註1:訓練如影片所示:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UzgxaNCaxXU

http://streamable.com/nhf0?t=2.3 "I don't think many (players could've blocked that shot). I barely got it. Anthony Davis could've gotten it," Cauley-Stein said when asked about that block. "The step-back is probably one of the fastest step-backs I've guarded. (Grant's) good at it. He knows how to set you up just to get you just enough space. I'm fortunate I even got my fingertips on it." Cauley-Stein almost got beat, but he morphed into a pogo stick and leaped into the shot's trajectory using his wingspan. It's unfathomable that Cauley-Stein got there and it could go down as the biggest play of his collegiate career ... at least until he does something equally as spectacular in the Final Four. It's not out of the question for Cauley-Stein to actually defend all five positions in the NBA. Consider his measurements: 我想沒有很多人可以蓋到這一球。我想幾乎沒有吧。AD或許可以。當WCS被問到這火鍋回答:”這個後撤步也許是我所守過的後撤步最快的一個。Grant很擅長後撤步。他知道怎麼從你身上取得足以吃掉你的空間。我很幸運我只不過是稍微用指尖碰到這球而已。” WCS幾乎抓到節奏了，但他就像踩著有彈簧的高蹺似的跳向那投籃的拋物線並且試圖用他的臂展干擾。WCS這球實在令人覺得深不可測而且也許是他大學籃球生涯中最重要的一個 play…至少在他在Final Four作出類似壯舉前都是。(這場是elite-8) WCS在NBA要能守到1~5號並非是不可能的。看看下列他的體測成績吧 http://i.imgur.com/ONKHAtD.png

Very few players are as fast and laterally-quick as Cauley-Stein, much less big men. Only seven players have lane agility and sprint scores that combine for fewer seconds than him, and none of them measure over 6'4. As more NBA teams switch pick and rolls and off-ball screens, many head coaches will feel comfortable allowing Cauley-Stein to defend the perimeter. Most big men get exposed if they're away from the paint. Cauley-Stein won't be, offering his NBA team unique versatility. 非常少球員速度跟橫向移動能跟WCS一樣快，更不用說那些長人了。只有七個球員在 lane agility跟3/4場衝刺加起來的秒數少過WCS，而那些人沒有人超過6呎4吋。當越來越多NBA球隊執行P&R還有無球擋人換防時，很多教頭一定會感到樂意讓WCS去守到或壓迫外圍的那個持球者。大多數長人離開禁區就會曝露他們移動過慢的缺點。但WCS不會，並提供選他的NBA球隊多功能的用途。 We've talked about his lateral quickness, but he can protect the rim too. If a team rotation is missed, he's swift enough to get to the other side of the court and long enough to block or at least deter the play. And he has even matured to the point where he resists the natural urge of a young shot blocker to leave his feet and commit fouls. These defensive attributes will all translate to the next level. While it's true Cauley-Stein can't score in the low post or facilitate offense like his contemporaries, those draft prospects don't have near his ability on the defensive end. Scoring is sexy, but defense is also a necessity and Cauley-Stein brings that at the highest of levels. Staying three years at Kentucky has allowed Cauley-Stein to become an intelligent and athletic rim protector that can also stay with guards. The lottery team that is fortunate enough to draft him will have a Defensive Player of the Year candidate for many years to come. 我們剛都在談論他的橫向移動能力，但他也能夠保護籃框。如果球隊防守出現漏洞時，他能夠迅速跑到場上的另一端並補上漏洞也夠高能打火鍋或至少能逼退一下對方的進攻。而他甚至成熟到避免像那些年輕的阻攻好手一樣不被騙起來要犯規，避免這個很正常的衝動。這些防守特質都將會轉換到下一個層級的比賽的。 WCS沒辦法在低位單打得分也沒辦法像他隊友讓進攻變的更容易是事實，但那些選秀潛力新人也沒有一個在防守端接近他的能耐的。會得分很誘人，但是防守同樣是個必需品而 WCS能帶給你最高層級的防守。待在肯大的這三年讓WCS成為一個有智慧、有活力的籃框守護者並且也可以守到後衛群們。擁有樂透籤的球隊如果有幸能選到他將會有個很多年都能競爭年度最佳防守球員的選手心得:1.翻得不好有錯請指正 2.希望國王今年能給球迷不錯的夏天補強跟球季 3.WCS加油，很看好你。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 1.174.97.185 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Kings/M.1435946340.A.7C3.html ※ 編輯: gibe (1.174.97.185), 07/04/2015 02:01:19
