Rebounding, effort both go missing. 大意是和公牛的交易遲早都會有的來的副作用還是來的變成一隻慵懶的暴龍籃板和鬥志都不見了... 走了A.Davis和垃圾狗教練Kevin O'Neill說搶籃板不再只是前場的大個的專責而是場上每個球員都應該奮力一起抓籃板按照教頭自己說法他說這是"gang rebounding" 嗯..果然招來了球評質疑這下要舉證了昨天輸給了開季來一直不太順的魔術但是他們在籃板上可不是一支弱隊身為一隊之首的卡特老大在拖著腿傷奮力防守T-Mac的情況下耗費很多氣力以致只得了17分只抓一個籃板而J.Rose在籃板也並沒有太積極的演出光是靠Donyell Marshall一個人猛撐實在看不出這是哪裡有全隊一起搶籃板的感覺比起之前A.Davis加上垃圾狗平均至少交出一定成績的演出也難怪多倫多球評要質疑K.O'Neill的"gang rebounding"成效如何過了交易後的蜜月期卡特自己也知道現在隊上悶著打不出來問題的確是出在籃板上尤其是基本的防守籃板咱們暴龍禁區原本高度就不佔優勢同時也沒有擅長蓋鍋的魔人 (不過最近得知Donyell Marshall在大學時曾經締造過某某蓋鍋紀錄...期待回神) 少了防守籃板根本等於大門開著送給對方一波又一波的攻勢不過教練還是對於C.Bosh和L.Baxter滿懷希望暴龍寶寶 -_-" 快茁壯吧報導還把卡特的防守訓了一下卡特身為球隊的領袖雖說在進攻上交出亮麗的成績單但是在防守上面還是被嫌不夠積極老調重彈了不過既然是剛剛復出我覺得卡特可以慢慢調整他的步伐成為攻擊重心當然是首要但是並不是他就不可以忽略防守畢竟敵對可怕的SG和SF 還是要由他來守慢慢轉緊你的防守腳步唄卡老大可以看出來最近卡老大有點小疲累還有他和他老弟心手相連也抱怨了一下去年聯盟開始准用區域防守把他弄得很卯力真是個專殺球星的戰術每次只要一個切進去層層人海包過來真是他X的可怕呼~也不能總是期待交易期待哪個禁區小將的快速成長帶頭衝吧還是全隊的防守意義趕快提升都好暴龍加油!! --------------------------------------------------------------- 原文: When the Raptors traded away Antonio Davis and Jerome Williams last month — and in the process shipped out 19 of the 39 rebounds they were averaging per game — Toronto coach Kevin O'Neill spoke of compensating for the void on the boards with something called "gang rebounding." The idea was to make up for the lack of frontline bulk by imbuing each and every Raptor — not only the big guys, but the littler ones, too — to take responsibility for grabbing a handful of rebounds every night. Skeptics figured it could never work in the every-man-is-an-island NBA. And the skeptics haven't been wrong. Witness last night, when the Raptors were soundly out-rebounded — not to mention out-hustled and out-scored — by the Orlando Magic, one of the least remarkable rebounding teams in the league. Problem was, the whole gang didn't show up to play. Vince Carter shuffled through an early Christmas break, scoring 17 points but procuring exactly one rebound, apparently expelling most of his energy in an ongoing in-game conversation with Magic all-star Tracy McGrady. Jalen Rose — the other half of Toronto's $25 million (U.S.) one-two punch — knew enough to get his hands on a respectable five rebounds, but he half-speeded it through a 5-for-15 brickfest in a game in which the only Raptors who earned their keep were Donyell Marshall and Chris Bosh, who combined for 35 points and 29 of Toronto's 44 rebounds. It all left O'Neill banging the scorer's table in rage before taking the drive to his upstate New York lake house to ponder his club's deficiencies over a three-day break that begins today. Before he left, the coach pointed out the obvious; that his size-depleted club is getting clobbered by front lines that w ouldn't scare some college teams. Now that the post-trade giddiness has worn off, now that the Raptors, .500 before the deal, are one game over .500 after it, general manager Glen Grunwald is under pressure to deliver a front-court player of note to remedy the anemia. Last night, after all, marked the Raptors' second sellout of the season, their first in more than a month. But performances like this one don't bring the customers back. "Inside, we're getting beat up," said O'Neill. "Chris (Bosh) and Lonny (Baxter, who had four rebounds in 20 minutes off the bench) are young guys who are forced to play better guys night in and night out. And when they have to do that, that's going to take a toll on those guys. "There's a myriad of problems on the defensive end and the boards. ... We need to have our perimeter (players) give us four or five rebounds apiece." Carter didn't uphold that end of the bargain. But he seemed to blame the loss on the NBA rules committee that instituted the use of zone defences before last season, chastising the Magic for playing the zone defence that befuddled Hogtown's not-so-savvy floor generals. "It's the worst part of the game right now," Carter said of t he 1-2-2 defence that continually forced Toronto into quick-and-long jumpers. Carter played so poorly in the third quarter on both ends that O'Neill took him out of the game for more than five minutes. But as for how exactly it was possible for a Mr. Half Man, Half Amazing, one of the highest jumpers in the NBA, to occupy a court for 36 minutes and not have more than a single rebound fall into his meat-hook hands, Carter was silent. How could he only get two and three rebounds, respectively, in last week's losses to Dallas and Miami? The only answer is effort — as in the team co-captain, though he often shows flashes of offensive brilliance, isn't giving a consistent one. "Any time you're struggling, you're looking for anyone to step up. You'd hope it'd be Vince or Jalen or one of those guys," said O'Neill. "You're not going to win many NBA games with that kind of effort." Indeed, and the Raptors are not going to go much better than . 500 with this kind of on-court leadership, this kind of undersized team. -- Mo-p今天真是讓我傷心 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.119.192.75
