Curry是否能奪得本季MVP是許多球迷熱烈討論的話題剛好昨天BlueManHoop的專欄作家Rahil Mathur寫了篇簡單的比較文，就隨意翻一下 Is Stephen Curry the Leading MVP Candidate? by Rahil Mathur 16h ago 來源 http://bluemanhoop.com/2015/02/01/stephen-curry-leading-mvp-candidate/ LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Derrick Rose. These are the names of the most recent candidates that have won the Most Valuable Player Award. But, as LeBron James’ Cleveland Cavaliers are not playing like a team with three stars is supposed to, as Kevin Durant has not even played half the games his team has played, and as Derrick Rose is still not playing like his MVP-level self, the race has opened to a slew of new candidates. LBJ，KD，Rose是過去幾年的MVP得主，但騎士並沒有打出一個擁有三巨頭的隊伍該有的表現；KD本季目前的出賽甚至還不到雷霆的一半；Rose也並沒有達到MVP級別的表現。 MVP現在正由幾個快速竄起的新人所角逐。 At the top of this race sits two players: Stephen Curry and James Harden. Currently, the race really boils down to Stephen Curry vs James Harden, though LeBron is still doing LeBron-MVP things in Cleveland as they still try to figure out team basketball. Regardless, we will look at the Curry vs Harden comparison, and then MVP numbers in the past and see where the Curry/Warriors narrative comes into play. 兩位領跑者分別是Curry和鬍子，我們甚至可以把本季MVP的競爭，簡化成這兩個人之間的戰爭，雖然LBJ的身手不減，但騎士似乎還不太懂什麼是團隊籃球。無論如何我們現在就來比較一下這兩個人，也比較過去幾個MVP數據，來看看咖哩是如何加入MVP行列的。 Stephen Curry: 23.0 ppg (48.7%/39.5%/91.5%), 8.1 apg, 4.7 rpg, 2.1 spg, 3.2 tov James Harden: 27.0 ppg (45.2%/38.4%/91.5%), 6.8 apg, 5.6 rpg, 2.0 spg, 4.0 tov The stats are somewhat comparable. Harden leads in scoring and rebounds, while Curry edges out in assists, steals, and turnovers per game. Their shooting splits are also somewhat comparable; Curry shoots a slightly higher FG% while Harden hits free throws at the same clip as Stephen Curry on far more free throws. Most importantly, both these offensive juggernauts have drastically improved their defense from the last season and can no longer be called negative defenders. 兩人的數據可說是難分軒輊。累積數據裡，鬍子在得分和籃板勝出，但咖哩失誤較佳，助攻怒電，抄截小勝。三圍命中裡，咖哩的雖然數字表現明顯較好，但鬍子可是在罰了更多球後依然擁有91.5%的鬼神命中。更重要的是，這兩台進攻機器本季的防守有著非常戲劇性的進步，我們再也不會說他們是旋轉門了。 So what sets them apart? The narrative. The MVP Award unfortunately is not the MVP of the League Award, but in reality the award is the MVP of one of the top seeded teams. And right now, the Warriors are sitting pretty as the first seed in the West. Since 1985, no MVP has been awarded to a player on a team with a seed lower than the third. As a result, Curry inherently has the advantage over Harden in this regard by playing for the best team in the West. So yes, Curry is most likely currently leading the MVP race. 那什麼才是這兩個人間決定性的分水嶺呢？事實是，MVP並不是頒給整個聯盟裡最有價值的球員，而是頒給高位種子裡的最有價值的球員。而現在勇士正打出西區最佳戰績。從1985年開始，MVP這個獎項就沒有頒給低於第三種子的球隊的球員，也因此咖哩從一開始就佔據了絕對優勢(戰績)。結論，YES，咖哩就是目前最有希望贏得MVP的人選。 But let’s take a look at some past MVP winners to compare Curry to. 不過這邊我們先看一下，過去和咖哩同樣身為PG且奪得MVP的球員。 Derrick Rose (MVP 2011, 1st seed): 25.0 ppg (44.5%/33.2%/85.5%), 7.7 apg, 4.1 rpg, 1.0 spg, 3.4 tovpg Steve Nash (MVP 2005, 1st seed): 15.5 ppg (50.2%/43.1%/88.7%), 11.5 apg, 3.3 rpb, 1.0 spg, 3.3 tovpg Steve Nash (MVP 2006, 2nd seed): 18.8 ppg (51.2%/43.9%/92.1%), 10.5 apg, 4.2 rpb, 0.8 spg, 3.5 tovpg When you look at the numbers of the past point guards who have been awarded the MVP, Curry certainly fits in. Curry shoots more efficiently than Rose and edges out Rose on assists, rebounds, and steals while he betters Nash on points, rebounds, and steals. He even has a somewhat similar efficiency to Nash, though Curry suffers due to the volume of difficult shot he takes, now that defenses are designed to slow him down. 如果看看這兩個人的數據就會發現，咖哩絕對值得這個獎項。咖哩在三圍命中、助攻、籃板、抄截都完勝Rose，得分、籃板、抄截則同樣贏過了Nash，而甚至和Nash有著同樣高效率的進攻，咖哩略輸是因為他有不少高難度出手，但之後針對他的防守大概不會再讓他這麼囂張了。 Curry has a good shot at the MVP award this year. His numbers align with past numbers of point guard MVP winners and are comparable (if not better) than the next best candidate, while his team holds the 1st seed in the brutal West. He has the numbers, the team, and the narrative. All he needs is the award. 咖哩在今年確實有著很好的機會，他的數據既不輸過去同樣身為PG的MVP的數據，也不輸第二位競爭者(鬍子)，決定性因子戰績更在可怕的西區暫居第一。結論，MVP所需要的因子，本季的Curry全都有了。 Curry for MVP! -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 1.175.97.11 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/StephenCurry/M.1422880528.A.377.html ※ 編輯: e2167471 (1.175.97.11), 02/02/2015 20:38:19
