Re: [外電]丹佛的前進,從防守開始
※ 引述《dctray (RAY)》之銘言:
英文不是很好 如果有錯請指證 謝謝!
: DENVER (AP) -When Anthony Carter first heard that George Karl was going
: old-school and preaching a defensive-first philosophy after two years of
: trying to run up the scores, he was a bit skeptical.
: "To tell you the truth, I didn't think we would really do it because
: he's said that before and then when we needed some scoring,
: the defensive guys went back to the bench," Carter said, chuckling.
: "But I'm glad we stuck with it this year."
AC有點不可置信,當他第一次聽到Karl強調防守第一的時候,尤其是玩了兩年進攻之後.
"老實告訴你啦,我覺得Karl根本在嘴砲,因為他以前也這樣說過,結果需要取分的時候,
他就把防守球員換下去了啦!!!囧>
不過我很高興這次好像是真的"
: It's the main reason the Denver Nuggets have reached the Western
: Conference Finals for the first time since 1985.
但防守第一的確帶領他們走到了睽違25年的西區冠軍咧!
: While waiting to see if they'll be playing the Lakers or Rockets in the
: next round, the Nuggets spent Saturday working more on defensive drills,
: precisely what got them this far.
: The switch occurred during a tumultuous offseason that started with
: their fifth straight first-round playoff exit and continued with the
: departures of defensive stalwarts Marcus Camby and Eduardo Najera and
: assistant coaches Doug Moe and Mike Dunlap.
: Before Camby and Najera were out the door, Karl's right-hand man,
: Tim Grgurich, convinced him that he had to return to his roots and preach
: defense.
在"Rockets or Lakers, 都機!"的時候,流氓們在星期六繼續一斯不苟地磨練防守.
金塊改變了,在歷經了"丹一輪"combo x5,加上鍋神以及馬市長還有兩位助理教練的離開
後(Doug Moe 和 Mike Dunlap).
在Camby和馬市長離開的時候,Karl的心腹Tim Grguric說服了他,
必須要返回根本,必須要發動流氓式的防守.
: Mark Warkentien, the NBA's Executive of the Year, did his part by signing
: two big bargains in Chris "Birdman" Andersen and Dahntay Jones before
: trading Allen Iverson to Detroit for Chauncey Billups, who has converted
: the Nuggets from perennial first-round fodder into championship contenders.
Mark Warkentien, 年度最牛GM , 先是簽下了鳥人和當貼Jones ,然後在拿AI換Billups.
將丹一輪帶到了西區冠軍賽
: Even before Billups returned to Denver to lead his hometown team to new
: heights, Karl got a gift when Kenyon Martin immediately bought into the
: new approach.
在Billups帶丹佛衝到新高度之前,K罵這頭野獸竟也浪子回頭,防守至上了.Karl很爽.
: "I agreed. I brought it to some of the coaches, as well. So, I had no
: problem with it," Martin said Saturday. "Just look at it, if you want to be
: successful in any sport, no matter if it's individual or a team sport,
: you've got to do something else besides what you do best.
: "We always knew we could score. Shoot, we're top 3 in the league in scoring
: for the last five years. But we've been in the bottom in defense all those
: years as well," Martin said. "So, you've got to fix it. How do you fix it?
: You get in the gym and work at it. And that's what we did every day in
: training camp and we got good at it."
: Despite appearances, the dumping of Camby's big contract wasn't the
: impetus for the shift in focus. It began in what Karl calls "the mope
: period," immediately after being eliminated from the postseason party.
: Karl said he realized "maybe I took too much of a risk," in preaching an
: offensive-first philosophy for the first time in his life.
: Grgurich persuaded Karl to go back to his defensive foundation after the
: Nuggets became the first 50-win team to get shut out in the playoffs.
: So, in their summer league, "the whole game was defense," Karl said.
: "Everything went back to the old-school drills, the shell drills,
: all the rotation drills, all the old-school stuff we had done in Seattle.
: We talked to everybody about it then the trades hit."
: Camby, gone. Najera, gone.
K罵在星期六說:"黑阿,只要教練要求,恁爸也是一點問題都沒有啦!我告訴你,
不管是單人或是團體運動,如果想要成功的話,你必須也去做一些
不擅長的事情.獨眼龍也知道我們很會得分,過去五年來是聯盟第三內!
但是防守這些年也是吊車尾,所以我們才要每天在體育館苦練阿!
我們能做得很好!
其實Camby的出走也算是激發了全隊防守這個想法,Karl說:"我發現之前的攻擊至上
真的是賭太大了"他以前從未試過攻擊為主.他的心腹說服他真的要開始拼防守!
50勝以上的丹一輪很囧的!
在他們的夏季訓練Karl說:我們必須回到西雅圖古拳法最高境界:鎖!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
即使是馬市長和Camby都走了,必須全力貫徹防守.
: "That was kind of a funky period from mid-July to the first week of August,
: everybody was cussing and moaning," Karl said.
: Soon, he and Grgurich divvied up what remained of the roster and reached
: out to all the veterans to tell them about the back-to-old-school basics
: that were suddenly more important than ever.
: Nene wasn't happy about Camby leaving or his role changing, but Karl soon
: swayed him.
: "I said, 'Nene you've gone from an overpaid bench player to an underpaid
: star in one trade," Karl said, admonishing him, "You're not going to be
: able to do this with your habits. If you want this culture to change you've
: got to help me. The first way you help me is get in the gym."'
: Starting Aug. 15, Nene was in the gym five hours a day.
Karl說"去年的七月中到八月初,大家真的是靠背靠木"
Karl和Grgurich用沒有坎老大和馬市長的陣容苦練防守,NENE或許對Camby走了這件事
或是他在隊中地位改變,感到金美送
Karl跟NENE說"這樣一來你可以從高薪替補升級成被低估的巨星阿!去體育館練習吧
如果你想要讓大家刮目相看的話你要拋棄一些嗜好,你必須幫我也幫自己"
從去年8月15日之後,乃哥每天在體育館5個小時苦練
: Karl figured Martin would be just as tough of a sell as Nene was, but Martin
: jumped right on board.
: "As soon as we got back here we met and he said, 'You're not going to have
: any problem with me. I'm going to be your leader,"' Karl recounted. "We had
: our first meeting of the season and he said, 'I've been a problem for the
: coach and it's not going to happen any more. I'm going to be his
: policeman."'
: Without the money to hire a seasoned staff, the Nuggets turned to young
: assistants Jamahl Mosley, John Welch and Chad Iske, who quickly proved they,
: too, were ready.And then came Billups.
: "The culture was changing before Chauncey came," Karl said. "And then
: Chauncey comes and here's the spokesperson for everything I was basically
: saying."
Karl以前以為K罵跟NENE都只會是燙手山芋.
"我跟K罵第一次見面我就跟他說,我將是你的老大,你最好不要有任何問題.
然後K罵就說'哭哭啦ToT我在這裡一點都不會快樂了!教練要我當他的乖寶寶
我會成為他的大麻煩的 科科!'' Karl很囧.
其實除了槍西的到來之外,新來的年輕助理Jamahl Mosley, John Welch and Chad Iske
也都證明了他們準備好大開殺戒了!
"其實槍西來之前我們就開始防守至上了 他來了之後就變成我的傳聲筒 科科"
