我們在最佳最與差的榜上表現都不錯喔
最佳的第四名 就是盛讚我們的三個第一輪都是好貨 (Freeland還沒來所以還不算）
看得實在是讓人心花怒放:)
Coming in at No. 4 on Hollinger's "Best off-season moves" are the Blazer
draft picks:
The Blazers' flirtation with respectability has been mainly the result of a
career year from Zach Randolph, but in the long term this season may be
memorable for a different reason: The Blazers' great draft crop.
While the Joel Freeland era doesn't seem imminent, Portland's other three
first-rounders look like studs. Brandon Roy is the likely Rookie of the Year,
and while that's not saying much in this disappointing class, he is scoring
14 a game and will be even more deadly once he figures out the NBA 3-point
line. Joining him in the Blazers' backcourt of the future is Spanish import
Sergio Rodriguez, who has played well in limited minutes and has posted an
insanely high assist rate (11.7 per 40 minutes).
But the best prospect of all may be big man LaMarcus Aldridge, who has played
sparingly while the team showcases Jamaal Magloire for a trade. Aldridge can
run the floor and shoot jumpers out to 20 feet, and with his length he can
get the shot off against anybody. His per-game numbers don't do justice to
his performance because he's seen so few minutes, but he's shooting a solid
percentage (49.7 percent), dropping in 14.8 points per 40 minutes, and he
rarely turns the ball over.
最差的第二名是尼克 丟掉 Ime Udoka 卻把所有的中產花在 Jefferies上
Udoka 可以提供尼克想要的 又幾乎不用錢 而Jefferies並不適合尼克
Isiah Thomas has an unusual fondness for dumping his full midlevel exception
on mediocrities with "J.J." for initials, particularly when there's a better
player already sitting on his roster. A year after ignoring the presence of
Jackie Butler and giving Jerome James his full midlevel exception, Thomas
repeated the effort by waiving Udoka after the season and then signing
Jeffries for the full midlevel exception as a free agent.
Udoka would have provided exactly what the Knicks need: a defensive stopper
on the perimeter who doesn't need the ball but can hit 3-pointers from the
corner. Instead, he's doing it for Portland and helping the Trail Blazers to
a surprisingly competent start - and doing it while making the minimum.
As for Jeffries, he has some value in the right system but he is much more
effective in trapping, pressing defenses like the one he left in Washington,
where his length could create deflections and shorten the floor. Plus,
Jeffries can't stretch defenses like Udoka can -- other than rebounding, his
primary offensive weapon seems to be the missed layup.
Two things make matters worse. First, Jeffries hurt his wrist and missed most
of the early part of the season (not to mention his four-game suspension for
his part in the brawl); since coming back he's underperformed offensively
even by his modest standards. Secondly, because the Knicks are over the
luxury tax he costs them twice as much, making this a $60 million mistake
rather than a $30 million one.
