[情報] Inside the Hornets: David West’s NB …
Hornets power forward David West has experienced a banner 2005-06 campaign,
one in which he’s developed into the team’s leading scorer and a primary
candidate for the NBA’s Most Improved Player award. The Xavier (Ohio) graduate
has also provided the Hornets with three of the most memorable moments from
this season –game-winning shots against Houston, Milwaukee and Washington.
West sat down with Hornets.com’s Jim Eichenhofer at Thursday’s practice to
provide his NBA Superlatives in the latest edition of Inside the Hornets.
黃蜂隊強力前鋒David West正經歷一個傑出的2005-06球季.他不但是隊上的得分王
同時也是最佳進步獎的強力候選人. Xavier (Ohio)畢業的他同時也在本季對上火箭,公鹿
和巫師完成至勝一擊讓球隊在這一季有珍貴的回憶
Most memorable moment in the NBA: “During my rookie year, we played the Lakers
for the first time and I realized I was standing between Kobe, Karl Malone and
Shaq, and I think Gary Payton was nearby. That was crazy. I was in awe of being
out there.”
NBA最難忘的回憶:在我新人年當中,我們第一次和湖人對陣,而我感覺到我和Kobe
Malone和Shaq站在一起,而我想Payton就站在旁邊.那真是瘋狂,而且讓我感到戒慎恐懼
Most embarrassing moment in the NBA: “When I was a rookie, I went to check
into a game, and I realized I didn’t have my jersey on underneath my warmups.
I ran back into the locker room to get it. The guys on the team gave me some
heat about that for a few days [West laughs].”
NBA最羞愧的回憶:同樣在新人年當中,我正準備進場比賽,我沒發現在熱身衣裡面我
沒穿球衣,我衝著回休息室穿球衣,隊上的人為此笑了我好幾天.
Most surprising thing about the NBA as a rookie: “The pace that the game is
played at. A lot of people don’t think it’s that tough, but the adjustment
from college is hard, because there are shorter possessions (in the NBA) and
you’re changing ends of the floor a whole bunch more times per game.”
新人時對NBA最訝異的事:比賽的節奏,很多人可能不認為那有多難,但是從大學到
NBA要適應真的很難,因為在NBA進攻時間變短,而在一場比賽中攻守會交換很多次.
Most underrated non-Hornets players in the NBA: Lamar Odom, Gilbert Arenas.
“I say Lamar Odom because some people talk about the Lakers as if Kobe Bryant
plays by himself, but Lamar Odom is a talent. In my opinion, Arenas was the
best player we played against all season. For him to not be put on the
(initial) All-Star team was hard to believe. He’s a freak. He doesn’t get
the credit he deserves.”
非黃蜂隊最被低估的球員: Lamar Odom, Gilbert Arenas
我會說 Lamar Odom是因為一些人認為湖人隊就只有Kobe,但是Lamar卻是非常的有天份
在我的想法裡Arenas是我們這一季對陣過最好的球員,他沒有入選明星賽很難讓人信服
他是個怪胎,他也沒有獲得他應得的信任.
Toughest player to face at his position: “You don’t want to disrespect
anybody by leaving them off, but I’d put Dirk Nowitzki up there. He’s tough.
Tim Duncan, Jermaine O’Neal is tough. There are a lot of ‘hard guards’ out
there (at power forward).”
在你這個位置上最難對付的人:你不會想去遺漏任何人而顯出你不尊重他們,但是說
真的我會選Dirk Nowitzki,他很棒.Tim Duncan, Jermaine O’Neal同樣也很棒,有一狗票
的大前鋒都很難防守.
Favorite road arena to play in: Miami. “You just get a good feeling playing
there. I also like the Staples Center in Los Angeles. Surprisingly, I like
playing Boston, too. It’s one of those places where you get a ‘
beginnings-of-basketball’ kind of feeling, because they have all of the
(championship) banners hanging in the arena.”
最喜歡打的客場,Miami,在那裡打球就是很爽,我也很喜歡洛杉磯的Staples Center
讓人驚訝的是我也很喜歡Boston.那是一個會讓你感到籃球就是從這裡開始的地方,我想是
因為他們拿過那麼多次冠軍,有那麼多個傑出的球季.
Favorite road trip based on the city: Miami, Los Angeles. “Usually the West
Coast trips are nice, because you’re going to nice places like Phoenix, L.A.
and Sacramento.”
在客場中最喜歡的城市:Miami, Los Angeles.通常在西岸比賽比較舒服,因為你會
去到像Phoenix,L.A和Sacramento(我猜是因為天氣比較好)
Best trash-talker in the NBA: Gary Payton. “Nobody is even close to Gary
Payton. Nobody. He talks even if you’re not at his position. He’ll check
into the game talking trash. Besides him, Rasheed Wallace and Damon Jones talk
a lot.”
NBA最佳垃圾話球員:Gary Payton,沒有人能夠關上GP的嘴巴,沒有任何人,即使在場
上你不是跟他放對他還是可以滔滔不?,從一開始比賽他就在說了,除了他之外
Rasheed Wallace和Damon Jones也很會說.
Change he’d make if he were NBA commissioner: “I’d shorten the amount of
games. Even though I know the old-school guys would be upset about me saying
this, there is a lot more size and a lot more talent in the NBA now (which
takes a bigger physical toll on players). There are games where guys are really
tired from playing back-to-back games and it affects the quality of play. I’d
try to make it between 50 to 60 games.
如果他是NBA行政人員,我會減少球賽的數目,即使我知道學院派的人不同意我說的
現在有很多更壯碩也更有天份的球員在聯盟裡,但是太多的比賽讓人厭倦,尤其是
back-to-back的比賽,我想50-60場是比較適合的.
“I remember one of the coaches told me when I was a rookie that every team is
going to have eight to 10 games a season where you don’t have your legs and
mentally you’re fatigued. We played the Lakers early that year and beat them
by a lot, a night after the Lakers played a double-overtime game at San Antonio.
They were really tired, and so the game wasn’t even close.”
我記得新人年時一個教練告訴我每支球隊每年都會有8-10場比賽是在你的腿和心智
都很疲累時開打的.今年稍早我們打敗了湖人,贏了很多,但那是因為前晚湖人和馬刺打了
2次延長,他們顯得非常疲憊,所以那場比賽打的一點也不刺激
