Monday, February 25, 2008 BY DAVID WALDSTEIN Star-Ledger Staff When the Nets traded Jason Kidd last week it was immediately apparent that the two stars left behind would have to increase their workload and productivity if the Nets were going to stay afloat. 當籃網將 Jason Kidd 在上周交易出去後，很顯然的這兩位剩下來的球星必須增加工作量以及生產力以維持他們的競爭力。 "The key for our success," Lawrence Frank said after Saturday's victory over the Pacers, "is not for Richard or Vince getting going. We need Richard and Vince to get going." Frank在打贏溜馬之後說:"我們勝利的關鍵，不只是 Vince 或 Richard 其中一人打得很好。我們需要兩個人同時打得很好" Well, it's only a small sample, but in the three games the Nets have played since Kidd's departure was finalized, Carter and Jefferson have done just that, and the Nets are 2-1 (against sub-par teams) and still alive in the playoff standings in seventh place. 恩，這只是一個小小的嘗試，但是自從 Kidd離開之後的過去三場比賽， VC 和 RJ 雙雙打出好球，而籃網的戰績是二勝一敗(對抗不是很好的球隊) 並且依舊在季後賽球隊中的第七名。 In the three games, Carter and Jefferson have combined for 166 points, or an average of 55.3 points per game, which is more than half of the team's total points in those games (53 percent). 三場比賽中，VC和RJ貢獻了一百六十六分，或平均每場55.3分，超越了球隊一半以上的分數。 Carter is averaging 20.7 points per game this year along with 5.7 rebounds in 38.7 minutes. But since the trade all his numbers have gone up: In 43.3 minutes per game, he has averaged 24 points and eight rebounds. 本季 VC 平均 20.7 分 5.7 籃板在38.7分鐘內。但是當交易之後，數字都上升了，平均每場打43.3分鐘， 24分和八個籃板。 With a huge second half in the Nets' 102-91 victory over the Pacers Saturday, Jefferson has 94 points in the last three games for an average of 31.3, up from his season average of 23.5. 這三場球賽，RJ也貢獻了九十四分，平均每場31.3分，從季賽平均值23.5上升。 Granted, the opposition (the Bulls and Pacers twice) wasn't the '86 Celtics, and the Nets will be strongly tested in the coming weeks with a make-or-break road trip to the Southwest Conference after tricky home games against the Magic, Bucks and Spurs this week. But Jefferson and Carter will continue to be asked to play more minutes, score more points and grab more rebounds. 就算這些對手不是86年的塞爾提克，籃網將會有一段強烈的測試，不是成功就是失敗的客場西南組之旅。包含在主場對抗難打的魔術、公鹿，還有馬刺。但 RJ 和 VC 將被要求打更多的時間，得更多的分數和搶下更多的籃板。 It's interesting that when the Nets traded for Carter back in 2005, many people wondered if Carter and Jefferson were too redundant to play together. Now that Kidd is gone, they have the opportunity to show more than ever that they really are unique unto themselves. 當 VC 於 2005年交易來時，許多人就好奇VC RJ 兩人在一起打球是不是重複了位置。現在 Kidd 已經離去，他們有比過去好很多的機會證明，他們對彼此而言都是獨一無二的。 "They are very different types of players so they can play together, but they really get their shots in complete opposite ways," Frank said, "so it's a balancing act to get them both going. The good thing is, they're both there to help their teammates and make the right play." Frank: "他們是非常不同類型的球員，所以他們可以在同一隊為球隊貢獻。像是在進攻的時候，他們有著截然不同的風格。所以說，讓他們兩人同時上場是很平衡的。只要他們共同在場上時，好處在於，他們都會幫助隊友，傳出助攻" Trenton Hassell wasn't in the original trade for Kidd because the Nets didn't want to take on his contract, which doesn't expire after this year. While some believe the Mavericks got a better deal, it's possible the Nets got lucky, too, because Hassell could be a keeper. Trenton Hassell 原本並不在籃網的交易計畫之中，因為不想要吃下他的合約，且因為他的合約不是在今年到期。當一些人相信小牛隊做了更好的交易，但很有可能籃網是幸運的，因為 Hassell 應該會留下來。 He is probably their best perimeter defender right now, and given the opportunity to play far more minutes than he did in Dallas, Hassell has shown he can contribute. 他很有可能的是目前籃網最好的外圍防守者，並且有比在小牛還要更多的機會上場貢獻，Hassell 已經展現出他可以付出的貢獻。 He came to the Nets averaging under three points and two rebounds in 13 minutes per game. But in three games with the Nets he has averaged 20 minutes, 5.7 points and four rebounds. 從平均不到3分、兩籃板，十三分鐘。在這三場比賽，平均二十分鐘， 5.7分、四籃板。 With Marcus Williams playing very well in the Nets' two victories since he became the starter, Frank was asked if there is any chance of him supplanting Devin Harris as the point guard of the future. 當小馬在籃網的兩場勝利之中先發，並且打得相當出色， Frank被問到，是否有機會將未來希望PG Devin Harris 排擠掉先發位置。 Not likely. If the Nets thought Williams was ready they wouldn't have insisted on Harris in the trade for Kidd. But Frank left open the possibility that Williams can still have a role on the team. 是不大可能的。假如籃網認為小馬已經做好準備了，那麼他們不可能堅持 Harris 出現在Kidd的交易中。但是教練語帶保留，並且說小馬能依舊在這支球隊有好的角色。 "If Marcus can continue to improve, it's a great situation because it's on me to find minutes for the guys who are playing well," Frank said. "It's potentially a great situation when you have it." Frank: "假如小馬持續進步，這當然是個好的狀況，因為我將去尋找哪些人打得好，並且給他更多的上場時間，這很可能是所有情況當中，最好的一個情形。" http://0rz.tw/893Hf -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 220.132.58.136 ※ 編輯: NetsFan 來自: 220.132.58.136 (02/25 20:09) ※ 編輯: NetsFan 來自: 220.132.58.136 (02/25 20:09) ※ 編輯: NetsFan 來自: 220.132.58.136 (02/25 20:10)
