Group D: Powerhouse Serbia are heavy favorites in Foshan D組：強權塞爾維亞是佛山賽區的大熱門 26/08/2019 PREVIEW 3 MIN TO READ FOSHAN (China) - Serbia have been on a roll as the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019 nears, and it seems like there doesn't seem to be any legitimate threat to their dominance in Group D. 塞爾維亞在接近2019世界盃前氣勢驚人，似乎沒有任何人能威脅他們在D組的地位。 The Serbians have risen to the very top of the latest version of the World Cup Power Rankings and for very good reason. They haven't lost any of their preparation games to date, highlighted by wins over Lithuania (twice), Italy (twice), Turkey and the Giannis Antetokounmpo-powered Greece. They will face the Italians anew in Group D along with the Andray Blatche-led Philippines and World Cup veterans Angola, who are making their seventh appearance on the biggest stage of international hoops. 塞爾維亞在最新公布的FIBA世界盃戰力榜上升到了龍頭。在熱身賽未嘗敗績，特別是對戰立陶宛拿下兩勝、對戰義大利拿下兩勝，及對戰土耳其和Giannis Antetokounmpo在陣的希臘也都拿下勝利。他們將在D組面對義大利和Andray Blatche領軍的菲律賓以及世界盃連續七屆登場的老面孔安哥拉。 Team to beat: Serbia 目標球隊：塞爾維亞 The Orlovi are bringing in their big guns to the World Cup. Nearly all of their NBA talents have answered the call of the national team as they have a generation of players that more than a few believe can pose a significant challenge to unseat Team USA's stranglehold on the throne. 白鷹大軍帶了強大的火力來到世界盃。幾乎所有NBA的天賦球員都被徵招，這一代球員被認為能對美國隊鞏固的王座形成重大挑戰。 Powering Serbia's engine will be their terrific triumvirate of big men bannered by Nikola Jokic of the Denver Nuggets, Boban Marjanovic of the Philadelphia 76ers and Nemanja Bjelica of the Sacramento Kings. That's a frontline that can hardly be matched by any other team in the field, but that's not all that head coach Sasha Djordjevic has in his arsenal. There is also explosive wing scorer Bogdan Bogdanovic (also of the Sacramento Kings), all-rounder Marko Guduric, who recently penned a deal with the Memphis Grizzlies, 7ft 0in (2.13m) Miroslav Raduljica, who scored 13.3 points per game in the European Qualifiers and many others. Given all these, it's not an overstatement to say that the odds are heavily stacked in Serbia's favor in Foshan. 為塞爾維亞提供動力的包含丹佛金塊的Nikola Jokic、費城76人的Boban Marjanovic及沙加緬度國王的Nemanja Bjelica幾位指標性的大個子。有著其他隊難以匹敵的前場，但除此之外，總教練Sasha Djordjevic還有著更多的武器。具有爆發力的側翼得分手 Bogdan Bogdanovic(同樣來自沙加緬度國王)，剛與曼菲斯灰熊簽約的全能型的Marko Guduric，歐洲區資格賽場均貢獻13.3分有著7呎(2.13公尺)身高的Miroslav Raduljica。綜合以上，說塞爾維亞在佛山賽區是最大熱門一點也不為過。 FIBA World Ranking, presented by NIKE WORLD RANK COUNTRY ZONE RANK IOC CURRENT POINTS 4. Serbia 3. SRB 645.4 13. Italy 9. ITA 492.9 31. Philippines 4. PHI 317.6 39. Angola 3. ANG 262.5 Key matchup: Italy v Philippines 關鍵賽事：義大利對菲律賓 Assuming Serbia plays true to form, all the other three teams in Group D will be playing to join the group front-runners through to the Second Round. Angola, despite being seasoned World Cup veterans, are the clear underdogs in the group, which means the contest pitting the Squadra Azzurra and Gilas Pilipinas carries extremely consequential repercussions. In addition, having the Italians and Filipinos collide on Day 1 of the competition increases the tension even more. 假設塞爾維亞如前面所說的勢不可擋，那麼D組的其他三隊將競爭剩下一個晉級第二輪小組賽的資格。安哥拉雖是世界盃的老面孔，但明顯在這組落居下位，就表示義大利和菲律賓是影響出線的關鍵。也為義大利和菲律賓在第一比賽日的賽事增添更多緊張感。 The edge will be on Italy's who have NBA players Marco Belinelli and Danilo Gallinari leading the Azzurri's charge. Expected to backstop them will be some of Italy's finest Europe-based stars like Luigi Datome, Amedeo Della Valle and Awudu Abass. On the other end, much of the Filipinos' collective fate will rest on Andray Blatche's aging shoulders, while five-time Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) Most Valuable Player June Mar Fajardo will also be expected to do heavy lifting. 義大利隊的利器是擁有NBA球員Marco Belinelli及Danilo Gallinari的帶領。支援他們的有義大利最好的歐洲球星如Luigi Datome、Amedeo Della Valle及Awudu Abass。而另一方面，菲律賓的命運則倚重老將Andray Blatche，曾五度獲選PBA年度MVP的June Mar Fajardo 同樣肩負重任。 Click here for the full schedule of Group D. http://www.fiba.basketball/basketballworldcup/2019/groups Star: Nikola Jokic 球星：Nikola Jokic https://youtu.be/BrOypnhis28

There is no other player in this group who will command as much attention as the Serbian frontliner nicknamed 'The Joker.' For some basketball die-hards, Nikola Jokic isn't just the best center from Europe, he's the best center in the NBA and on the planet. His combination size, heft, mobility, court vision, passing, and shooting make him such a nightmarish matchup for any opponent, and a cursory view of the field in Group D reveals one certainty - there really is nobody here who can stop Jokic if he's one hundred percent focused on imposing his will. 這個小組沒有其他球員會像這位綽號"小丑"的塞爾維亞球員如此受到關注。對一些籃球死忠球迷來說，Nikola Jokic不只是歐洲最佳中鋒，也是NBA甚至是地表最強中鋒。他具備了身材、體重、機動性、視野、傳球能力以及投籃能力，對任何與之對戰的對手來說都像是惡夢，在D組概略來說，如果Jokic專注發揮百分之百的能力，沒有人能夠阻止他。 Yes, his performance at the Rio 2016 Olympics wasn't exactly amazing (just 9.1 points, 6.0 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game), but remember that he's no longer a wide-eyed 21-year-old. Instead, the versatile 7ft 0in (2.13m) big man is coming off his first NBA Play-Offs appearance, his first season as an NBA All-Star and his first time to be named to no less than the All-NBA First Team. 雖然他在2016里約奧運表現不起眼(場均9.1分、6.0籃板及2.4助攻)，但別忘了，他已經不是那個21歲的男孩了。相反的，這位多工的7呎(2.13公尺)大個子剛經歷他的第一次NBA季後賽、第一次的NBA全明星賽，也是第一次入選NBA第一隊。 Top prospect: Robert Lee Bolick, Jr. 最佳新秀：Robert Lee Bolick, Jr. Many of the talents in Group D will be grizzled veterans from World Cups and Olympic Games past, but one young, up-and-coming player who can potentially turn some heads is the Philippines' very own Robert Lee Bolick, Jr. At just 6ft 0in (1.82m), Bolick won't be the most imposing figure on the hardwood, but he has mightily impressed in the Philippines' tune-up matches and is currently one of the top rookies in the PBA's 2019 season, putting up 17.0 points, 5.1 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 2.2 three-pointers per game. If Bolick can play at a high level in Foshan, the Philippines may just be able to barge into the Second Round. 在D組有許多曾參與世界盃或奧運的年邁老將，但有一位年輕且前程勢似錦的球員正吸引一些人的目光，來自菲律賓本土的Robert Lee Bolick, Jr.。僅有6呎(1.82公尺)的身高 Bolick並不是會讓人注意到的球員，但他在菲律賓的熱身賽中讓人留下了深刻的印象，他是2019PBA賽季最佳新人之一，場均有17.0分、5.1籃板及4.6助攻並有2.2個三分球。如果Bolick能在佛山有高檔表現，菲律賓將有機會進入第二輪。 Familiar face: Eduardo Mingas 熟悉的面孔：Eduardo Mingas No other player in Group D has more World Cup appearances than Angola's Eduardo Mingas, who made his World Cup debut at the 2002 edition in Indianapolis, Indiana. Back then, Mingas was the greenhorn, serving as an undersized center for an overmatched Angolan quintet that won just two of their eight matches. Now, the 40-year-old serves as the 'wise old man' as Angola hope to defy expectations and finish among the top ten teams just like what they did 13 years ago in the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2006 in Saitama, Japan. D組沒有其他人比安哥拉的Eduardo Mingas有更多的世界盃出賽經驗，首次亮相是在2002的印第安納波利斯世界盃。當時，Mingas還只是個菜鳥，作為一個小尺寸的中鋒僅能替補出賽，而安哥拉當時在八場比賽中只取得兩勝。現在，這位40歲的球員做為一位智慧型的老將，期望帶領安哥拉能像在13年前的2006日本埼玉世界盃一樣進入前十名。 FIBA https://tinyurl.com/FIBAWC-D -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 223.136.55.181 (臺灣) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/worldbasket/M.1567138970.A.25B.html ※ 編輯: jathymin (223.136.55.181 臺灣), 08/30/2019 12:48:35
