http://0rz.tw/tWg74 Tyreke Evans showed up at the Sacramento Kings' practice gym at 4 a.m. one day last month to work on his shooting. Kings officials weren't surprised. Evans has spent much of the offseason in the gym – part of his plan to regain the form he showed his first season in the NBA when he was named Rookie of the Year. 上個月的某一天，凌晨四點reke突然現身在國王的練習場館，為的是練習他的投籃。國王官方並不意外，reke季外花了很多時間在場館，為了回到第一年那樣的樣子。 "I've been receiving a lot of criticism about not being healthy and not playing like I did my rookie year," Evans said. "I just want to come back this year and show people I'm still here and that I haven't lost a step." 「我一直遭受到批評，都關於無法保持健康以及表現不如菜鳥年，我只想要在今年表現給人們看我還是很威的」reke說 After averaging 20.1 points, 5.8 assists and 5.3 rebounds as a rookie, Evans' production has dropped each of the past two seasons. He averaged 17.8 points, 5.6 assists and 4.8 rebounds while coping with a foot injury in 2010-11 and then averaged 16.5 points, 4.5 assists and 4.6 rebounds last season. 在第一年神級表現後，reke過去兩年數據持續下滑。 "I've had injuries; not been in the best shape," Evans said. This season will be an important one for Evans. The Kings have yet to offer him a contract extension. If they don't extend him, he'll become a restricted free agent after the season. 「我過去一直受傷痛所苦；沒有在最佳狀態」。本季對reke而言非常重要，國王還沒有開出延長合約，如果他們不延長，他在球季後就會變成受限制自由球員。 Evans knows he faces an uncertain future, and has devoted himself this summer to improving his game. He says he's taken just one week off since the end of last season, and this is the first offseason he primarily has worked out in Sacramento. He's played in a couple of pro-am leagues and says he's completely healthy now. reke知道他面對著未知的未來，這個夏天一直在增進自己的球技。他說在球季結束後他只休息一個禮拜，而這是他第一次主要在沙城訓練的休賽期。打了幾場業餘比賽，他說他現在完全康復了。 "He's been a lot more focused this summer," Kings general manager Geoff Petrie said. "Part of it is maturing as a player. You kind of forget that he is only 22 years old. He's definitely put in more work and concentration in trying to improve parts of his game. He wants to be thought of as one of the best players in the league." 「他這個夏天更加地專注，變的更成熟了。你也許忘了他才22歲。他更加努力而且專注在增進球技。他想要被視為聯盟最佳的球員之一」Petrie說 Some of Evans' workouts have been led by Petrie. The 1971 NBA Rookie of the Year and a two-time All-Star, Petrie averaged 21.8 points in six seasons with the Portland Trail Blazers before his career was cut short by injury. Evans said they've been "working on a little bit of everything." Kings owner Gavin Maloof has also attended some of the workouts. 有些訓練是由Petrie主導，他是1971年的新人王而且二度入選明星賽，在阿拓六個球季平均21.8分，之後因受傷而生涯縮短。reke說他們什麼都練，有時候馬老闆也會出現。 "I've never had a chance to work with him before," Evans said of Petrie. "He was a good player, a Rookie of the Year, so he knows some things about the game." 「之前從來沒機會和他一起練，他過去是個好球員，是新人王，所以他了解一些事」 Asked about Evans' contract situation, Petrie said: "I don't think it's something on the front burner at this point. Going forward salary cap-wise, we have a lot of flexibility. There are no real concerns about our ability to pay going forward because of our future numbers. The most important thing in the big picture is that Tyreke takes his game to another level. The reward for that is ultimately what's greater in a lot of respects." 當被問到reke的合約狀況，Petrie說「我不認為在這個時候這很重要。關於薪資空間，我們有許多彈性。因為我們未來的數字，並不真的擔心無法付大錢。最重要的是reke能夠進化到下一層級。」 Evans said he won't be too frustrated if he isn't offered a contract before this season. He also said that if he's offered a new deal he'll consult with his brothers before deciding to sign. reke說本季前沒有收到延長合約並不會感到挫折。他也說如果收到了會和哥哥們商量後才決定。 "Eventually something would happen," Evans said. "I'm just trying to do whatever I can to get us rolling this year. I've been working on my game. I got a lot to prove. The most important thing is I'm a lot better than I was last year." 「船到橋頭自然直，我只會去試著今年讓球隊變的更好。我一直在訓練著，還有很多東西需要證明，最重要的就是我現在比去年好上許多」reke說 Of course, even if Evans re-signs with the Kings, there's no guarantee he'll stay in Sacramento. The franchise could move if a new arena deal isn't struck with the city. 當然，就算reke和國王簽下新合約，也不保證他會留在沙城。如果新場館還是沒著落球隊可能會搬家。 Kings fans often ask Evans about the team's future in Sacramento, but he tells them he knows no more than they do. And after failing to make the playoffs his first three seasons, he's more worried about winning. Even with the addition of rookie forward Thomas Robinson, the Kings will likely be pressed to make the postseason. 國王迷常常問reke關於國王在沙城的未來，但他的回答都是他也不知道什麼內情。而且在前三季都沒有進季後賽後，他更在意贏球。就算有TRob的加入，國王要進季後賽還是很拚 "I've been losing ever since I got here," Evans said. "I just want to win games. I've never been a loser." 「自從來到這裡一直在輸球，我只想要贏得比賽，我從來都不是一個輸家」 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 111.240.143.202 ※ 編輯: eliczone 來自: 111.240.143.202 (09/13 01:04)
