Hornets look to bolster frontcourt Smith could be used as trade bait to get another big man J.R有可能會被拿來當作交易籌碼,補強隊上大個不足的問題 With a 36-year-old power forward starting at center, and a lone backup with 53 points all season, the Hornets need another big man just to get through practices, much less make a playoff push in the final 12 weeks. P.J,36歲的大前鋒開始改打中鋒,但替補Vroman目前卻只能有53分的總得分(少了鳥人真的有差...),黃蜂需要在尋覓其他長人並通過測試,至少要為12週後的季後賽作衝刺。 In order to fill this 7-foot void, the Hornets might have to gamble. 為了要補足7呎長人的空缺,黃蜂必須要下個賭注。 J.R. Smith, the sky-walking 20-year-old guard in his second season, could be one of the players traded by the Feb. 23 deadline. J.R,這位年僅20歲,打NBA第二年的飛人級後衛,在2月23日交易截止日前,可能會成為交易뤊 對象。 Yes, this is the same Smith who dazzled New Orleans last season with his dunks and long-range shooting, winning Western Conference rookie of the month honors three times. 沒錯,這和你熟知,那位在上一季以灌籃和三分長射,技驚紐奧良的Smith是同一人,包括曾經三度榮獲單月西區最佳新秀的殊榮。 But Smith was inconsistent during the first two months of this season -- his first two months as a starter -- suffering through a horrid shooting slump in December. Smith averages 9.3 points per game and has led the team in scoring three times; last season he averaged 10.3 points and led the team in scoring 17 times. Since his Jan. 2 benching, he has played 10 or more minutes just four times. 但是,J.R這一季前兩個月的表現,和上一季可說是迥然不同,簡直就像是個初學者,在12月時經歷了投籃的低潮期,他平均得分僅有9.3分,三度得分居全隊之冠;而他上一季平均得分有10.3分,還17度得分居全隊之首,自從1月2號被將為板凳以來,他上場時間超過10分鐘的ꘊ 次數僅有4次。댊 Said Smith earlier this month: "I put a lot of pressure on myself more last year than this year." 『跟上一季比較起來,我給自己更多的壓力來要求自己。』J.R在這個月初是這麼說的。 Byron Scott, the Hornets' stern coach, does not tolerate complacency. Earlier in January, when asked about Smith's efforts, Scott said that NBA stands for "No Babies Allowed." Scott,黃蜂的總教練,並不滿意他的表現,就在一月初他接受訪問,當問到J.R練習時的努力程度,Scott回答:『NBA不是嬰兒該來的地方。』 And there's no caboose on Scott's train. 然而在Scott的訓練中,這並不會有任何改變。(caboose:艙面廚房...) Obviously, the Hornets have invested in Smith -- the No. 18 pick of the 2004 draft -- and want to see if he will pan out. He's still learning the pro game at a college age. But if Scott isn't going to play Smith -- or even have Smith in his rotation -- then the Hornets will have to consider trading Smith to get a player who can make an immediate impact. 很明顯地,黃蜂正在試探J.R,這位2004年18順位的二年級生,而且也在看他是否能成功。他仍然在本應是讀大學的年齡,學習如何適應職業比賽。但如果Scott不重用J.R,甚至放任他繼續處在低潮期,那麼黃蜂就必須思考交易J.R這個問題,來獲得一名具有即戰力的球員。 Right now at center, there's P.J. Brown, a wise veteran who averages 9.1 points. Some nights he's crafty in the lane. But when he doesn't get the rest he needs, he has some nights where he struggles offensively. 現在黃蜂的中鋒,P.J,是個具有籃球智慧的老將,雖然僅有9.1分的平均得分,但有些夜晚他在底線相當活躍,當他的需求沒有滿足時,他就會充分展現進攻慾望。 And Friday, when center Chris Andersen was kicked out of the NBA for violating the anti-drug policy, that left only Jackson Vroman as a backup on the active roster entering the weekend. 禮拜五,當中鋒Andersen因違反NBA反毒品政策而被聯盟踢除後,這禮拜開始名單上就僅剩 Vroman能當替補了。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 私心的希望J.R能留在黃蜂 >"< -- 情報來源:http://0rz.net/5911j 附上原文網址供大家參考 ^^" -- █ █ New Orleans / Oklahoma City █ █ I Believe In The Hornets ◥████ I Believe In Chris Paul █ █ I Believe In David West █ █ornets I Believe In........Me -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 218.167.188.47
