英文不好大概翻一下^^" 最近版有點乾說...>""< http://myurl.com.tw/aagk Lakers Unleash 'Junkyard Dog' 湖人關門放狗? Second-round pick Turiaf says he旧 willing to do the dirty work, and Rambis says L.A. is going to love the former Gonzaga standout. 湖人第二輪新秀 Turiaf說他很樂意做髒活，湖人助理教練 Rambis也說湖人迷們將會愛上這傢伙。 Ronny Turiaf understands that being drafted in the second round offers no guarantees in the NBA. The Lakers took the gregarious power forward as the 37th overall selection but all it means now is that they have an interest in him. Turiaf說他知道自己領的是沒有保障的合約，湖人選他只不過代表了湖人目前對他的興趣。 But then, there were no guarantees either when Turiaf left his family on the tiny Caribbean island of Martinique as a teen-ager to embark on a basketball odyssey that carried him to Paris and Spokane, Wash. 當Turiaf還是個小鬼頭的時候，就離鄉背井流浪打拼的經歷。 So it's no wonder that the 6 foot 10, 249-pound former Gonzaga star is willing to show the Lakers that he'll do the dirty work the team often didn't do last season. 所以，不用懷疑，這位6'9" 249磅的新秀前鋒將會秀出湖人上個球季最缺乏的"髒活"。 "I know they're going to ask me to play defense, be physical and rebound the ball, block shots and be an energy guy," Turiaf said. "That's what I like. It's what I enjoy doing. My role is to be the junkyard dog." 他說"我知道球隊會要求我防守、肢體對抗、保護籃板、賣火鍋、以及當個有活力的傢伙，這些都是我愛做的，我的角色就是當個 junkyard dog 。(垃圾狗？) Turiaf played on the same Paris high school team as San Antonio Spur point guard Tony Parker and was discovered by Gonzaga coaches, who lured him to the Pacific Northwest. At Gonzaga, he became a star and helped make the Bulldogs a household name in college basketball. Turiaf和 Tony Parker都曾為同一所法國高中球隊效力，然後他被Gonzaga大學教練發掘並帶到美國，之後他成為 Gonzaga的明星球員並幫助學校球隊成為一個響噹噹的隊伍。 Now he is a rookie, one who will have to battle Brian Cook, Slava Medvedenko and Brian Grant for a roster spot. "I don't have any pressure on myself," Turiaf said. "I have confidence in my capabilities. I know what I can do and can't do. "The Lakers drafted me because they had some interest in me. If they want to sign me, I'm more than willing to put my name on the line." 現在菜鳥Turiaf必須和 Brian Cook、Slava Medvedenko、Brian Grant競爭上場時間。 "我不給自己壓力"他說"我對自己有信心，我知道我在球場上能做什麼，不能做什麼"。湖人簽下我是因為對我有興趣，所以我會督促自己做到最好。 Laker assistant coach Kurt Rambis, who is running the club's entry in the Summer Pro League, says Turiaf has been impressive in workouts this week. "He has done everything that you expect somebody to bring to the table," Rambis said. "He has size, strength and a tremendous knowledge of the game. He's out there encouraging teammates and he works hard on both ends of the floor. "He's shown the things needed to make it in this league. I think L.A. is going to love him." 現在正在帶領夏季聯盟球隊的Rambis說 Turiaf在workout時令人印象深刻。"他做到了所有你希望他做的，他有身材、力量、以及很不錯的籃球智慧，他能激勵隊友，而且在攻守兩端都很努力。" 他做到了所有在聯盟裡需要做的，湖人迷會喜歡他的。 ------------------------------------------------------------------- 另外提到Bynum今晚的初次登場，我們可以觀察到更多關於他的表現。 Rambis則是說，我們對Bynum需要有耐心，他還需要更多的練習、培養，明顯的，他還沒能在NBA層級的比賽打滿40分鐘...。 ------------------------------------------------------------------- 關於Von Wafer Wafer的長射能力可以幫他爭取到上場時間。 Wafer上個球季是Seminoles的得分王，不過他兩度因學業問題無法上場，而且和教練發生衝突....，以投射功夫聞名，6'5"的 Wafer平均每場12.5分，但在上個球季末，只能在板凳上度過。(還真是個問題兒童= =) 他說這經驗令他深思(喔？)，結束了兩年大學生涯，他曾考慮轉校繼續念，但他不想再繼續坐板凳了。不過後來還是打消這個念頭，投入選秀...。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.223.192.50
