Scouts Inc. Update: Nuggets vs. Lakers, Game 4 這篇真的值得看，許多地方一針見血，對比賽也有很實際的觀察。來源：http://0rz.tw/4a40q By David Thorpe Scouts Inc. Updated: April 28, 2008 George Karl loves having his players make immediate decisions after they catch the ball, whether it is to drive, pass or shoot. He wants the ball moving quickly, which forces the defense to move with it and ultimately opens up lanes for his talented players to exploit. George Karl喜歡他的球員在一接到球就做出決定，不論是要切入、傳球或投球。他希望球能快速的流動，這讓防守必須跟著移動，到最後會被迫打開一點空間，讓他手下很有才華的球員們去突破。 But the irony he is forced to face is that his top two players are considered to be among the biggest ball-stoppers in the NBA. Standing and holding the rock (as Carmelo Anthony often does) and lateral dribbling (as Allen Iverson is known to do) allow the defense to consistently reset and re-orient toward the main threats. 但他必須面對最大的諷刺是，他手下兩名最好的球員被認為是聯盟裡最容易讓球的流動停下來的球員。一直站著並像是拿著石頭一樣（這是Carmelo常做的）以及橫向運球（大家都知道Allen Iverson愛做的）讓防守常常能夠重新排列，並重新對這主要的威脅作好準備。 When the Nuggets move the ball, they can light up any defense. When Melo or AI stops the ball, sometimes their talent is enough to find a way to win. But for Denver in the playoffs, especially against the No. 1 seed and well-prepared Lakers, holding the ball has added up to lots of horrible shots and three losses. 當金塊讓球不停流動，他們能擊敗任何防守。當Melo或AI把球停下來，有時候他們的才華還夠他們找到方法贏球。但這次丹佛在季後賽，特別面對的是來勢洶洶的第一種子湖人，停球只會讓他們有一大堆濫投以及三場敗仗。 The Nuggets are now faced with a potential sweep, an all-but-certain first-round loss and possibly the end of the short-lived combination of their two star players. 現在金塊很有可能被橫掃，這可能導致這對組合的結束。 Los Angeles has certainly made it difficult for Melo to get buckets. He always has to deal with his own defender -- often the tall and long Vladimir Radmanovic, who has played him straight up (mostly) and invited him to shoot perimeter shots. 洛杉磯的確讓Melo難以輕鬆得分，永遠都會有一個防守者在身邊，通常都是身高高又手長的Vladimir Radmanovic，通常就只是把手舉高，並歡迎他投中長距離的球。 But the Lakers also have pulled Derek Fisher toward him, allowing Fisher to swipe at his dribbles or clog up any middle drives. Plus, to further cut off Melo's angles to the basket, the Lakers have dragged Lamar Odom over to the same "box" Melo is in. 但湖人也讓Derek Fisher去貼近他，讓Fisher在他運球時抄截或當他切入中間時堵住他。在加上他會先把Melo靠近籃框的角度封死，並讓Lamar Odom在這個空間中拖住他。 These tactics would be risky maneuvers if the Nuggets would employ some quick, "swing, swing" passing action, which could end up with a dunk, interior foul or a wide-open 3-point shot in the opposite corner. 這個戰術是很危險的，如果金塊能讓球快速的轉移，結果可能就是灌籃、內線的犯規或是對角大空檔三分。 But the Lakers counted on Melo holding, reading and then either shooting or driving into the teeth of the defense. His catching and squaring without passing killed any chances for him or his team to get easy looks. 但湖人相信Melo會停球，閱讀防守然後投球或運球切入防守的陷阱裡。只要他接球單打不傳球就讓他以及他的球隊沒有輕鬆進球的機會。 Melo finished Game 3 with 5-for-22 shooting and is now 24-for-68 for the series. Iverson shot 5-for-16 and is 26-for-61 in the three games. The rest of the Nuggets, who feed off of these two, went 22-for-48 in Game 3. Imagine if they got 68 shots. George Karl is thinking about that right now. Melo第三場投22只中5，本系列總共投68只中24。Iverson則投16中5，系列投61中26。金塊其他一直餵球給這兩人的球員在第三戰加起來投48中22，想像一下如果他們出手68次會怎麼樣？George Karl現在也在想這個問題。 Because of AI's ability to finish against guards and wings, the Lakers challenged their bigs to make things difficult on him. The Spurs employed a similar strategy against Iverson last season, to great success. 因為Iverson在對抗後衛以及兩翼球員之後仍然能夠把球放進，於是湖人就用他們的大個去干擾他讓他更難出手。在上個賽季，馬刺就用了類似的策略對付Iverson，結果非常成功。 Iverson is still an incredible athlete and as relentless as ever, but he's not very good at finishing over guys like Odom and Pau Gasol. Those two guys have mostly ignored their own men, allowing Kenyon Martin to finish 6-for-11 -- including some incredible dunks that should have energized every Nugget player and fan in the building. Iverson仍然是一位出色的運動員而且一直都是，但是當他對上的是像Odom以及Pau Gasol 這樣的傢伙，就很難把球弄進籃框。這兩個人常常因此無視自己的防守對象，導致Kenyon Martin上場投11中6，其中還有些應該要能給予金塊球員以及球迷激情的灌籃。 Marcus Camby, who likes to get some shots each half and thus feel a part of the offensive end of the floor, didn't get many looks, going 0-for-2 for the game. Marcus Camby是一位需要在上下半場都有些出手機會才能感覺自己有進入進攻狀態的球員，但這場球他沒得到多少機會，只有投2中0。 There is no more telling statistic than AI and Melo combining for four total assists in Game 3 -- half the number Kobe dished out himself. 還有什麼比這個數據，AI與Melo兩人在第三戰加起來只有4助攻，Kobe一個人助攻數的一半，更能說明這個事實呢？ Denver's effort on defense was adequate for awhile, as they were shading off of guys like Odom and Fisher and forcing Kobe to look at numerous white jerseys in his path to the basket. 丹佛曾經試著防守一陣子，他們盯住了Odom以及Fisher這樣的傢伙，並讓Kobe切入籃下的路上都是他們的人。 But players who get shut out of their offense tend to lose interest on defense, and so it went for the Nuggets. 但是當球員進攻端打不開的時候就會對防守失去興趣。 They again did a fine job in transition, making the Lakers work harder than they had to in Game 1. 他們又重新在轉換上做的好極了，讓湖人要做的比第一戰難多了。 But Denver's attention to detail was poor throughout the game: the Nuggets gave up easy baskets on simple initial actions, like a back screen involving Melo and Camby's men. 但丹佛整場都對細節很不注意：金塊放棄了許多啟動剛開始簡單的拿分機會，像是Melo與 Camby兩人在底線的掩護。 L.A. seemed content to run its triangle, trying to make easy plays every time down and focusing on not turning the ball over (eight turnovers for the game). Denver didn't do anything to shake the Lakers out of their rhythm. 洛杉磯看來更願意好好跑他們的三角，每次進攻都試著做出輕鬆的出手機會，以及注意不要有任何失誤（上場全隊只有八失誤）。丹佛完全沒有作任何事去破壞湖人的節奏。 Of the 16 playoff teams, no single team has been more disappointing or has played worse than the Nuggets. 在16支進入季後賽的隊伍中，沒有一隊打的比金塊更叫人失望的。 They were horribly disinterested in defending in Game 1. 他們在第一戰完全不防守。 Then in Game 3, they were incredibly unwilling to move the ball quickly against a well-prepared defense. 在第三戰，他們面對一個準備充分的防守，又神奇的不願意快速的移動球。 Once again, the postseason has been a nightmare for this group of talented individuals. But it should be over soon. 季後賽再一次成為這支才華洋溢的球隊的惡夢，不過這也很快就要結束了。 PREDICTION: Lakers win Game 4 預測：第四戰湖人贏難得有一篇不是在討論Melo的放棄論。這系列什麼都好，就是出太晚，每次翻了也沒什麼要看。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 122.118.35.253
