[外電] Additional big man could help Kings’ rotation

[eliczone (C'est la vie)]

Had the Kings won the No. 1 pick in the June 25 draft, they almost certainly
would have taken Oklahoma forward Blake Griffin.
如果國王是第一順位，他們幾乎會選Blake。

Even with young big men Jason Thompson and Spencer Hawes improving enough
last season to inspire confidence from Kings basketball president Geoff
Petrie on down, the in-house consensus was most good teams rotate three
quality big men and that there was plenty of room for more talent in the
paint. Yet even as their fate at No. 4 means much of the focus regarding
their top pick is on drafting a point guard, they may still opt to go big –
 particularly later in the draft.
就算小湯和Hawes上一季有長足的進步，但大部分好的球隊都要有三個水準以上的大個。
就算四號位會專注在pg上，但他們仍然有可能選個大個，尤其是在後面的順位。

Today we look at two forward candidates for the Kings' picks at Nos. 23 and
31: North Carolina's Tyler Hansbrough and Georgia Tech's Gani Lawal. Both
took part in last week's predraft combine in Chicago, which Kings brass
attended, and were seen again at a group workout in Oakland on Tuesday.
今天我們來看兩個國王在23和31順位的候選人：漢堡和甲尼。他們兩個都有參加上禮拜的
predraft combine，他們也會再次參加在奧克蘭的測試。

‧ Hansbrough (North Carolina, senior, 6-foot-8 power forward)

If Hansbrough is available at No. 23, the Kings could very well take him.
假如漢堡在23順位還沒被挑走，國王選他是非常好的。

For all the questions about his athleticism and ability to match the
physicality of professional forwards, the Atlantic Coast Conference's
all-time leading scorer has proven critics wrong before and plans on doing it
again in the NBA.
所有的疑問都指向他的運動能力去面對職業球員的體格，分區的得分王之前就已經證明過
評批是錯的，而且現在計劃又要在nba再證明一次。

"They can doubt me or whatever but I got the job done and was a national
champion," Hansbrough said while in Chicago. "Doubt me all you want."
他們可以懷疑我或不管怎樣，但我已經完成工作，而且是全國冠軍，儘管懷疑我吧」

Hansbrough, who spent four seasons flourishing in the same town (Chapel Hill,
N.C.) in which Kings regional scout and UNC alum Keith Drum resides, firmly
believes his extended stay in college means he can contribute quickly at the
next level.
漢堡在chapel山待了四季，國王的區域球探也住在那，堅定地相信他待在大學這麼久代表
他是即戰力。

"A lot of people have potential, but you never know if it's going to actually
show up or not," he said. "With me, you're getting someone who's good, who's
proven, who has been there for four years. You know what I'm about, and I've
improved my game each year. … Plus, my maturity level is up there. I'm more
of a guy that's more of an adult than some of these young guys who really
haven't been away from home for as long."
「很多人有潛力，但你沒有辦法知道是否能夠展現出來，而我，你將得到一個很棒的人，
一個已經證明過的。你知道我的能力，我每年都在進步，我的成熟度就在那，我比那些還
離家沒多久的小子成熟多了。」

In many respects, Hansbrough is a less flashy version of Griffin, who
measured 6-8 3/4. He showed his respectable strength at the combine, bench
pressing 185 pounds 18 times to Griffin's 22. His standing vertical leap was
27 1/2 inches, Griffin's was 32.
從各個方面來看漢堡都比Blake黯淡，他的臥推185磅18下，Blake22下(真的很厲害)。他的
垂直跳是27吋半，Blake是32吋。

Griffin is a superior rebounder (14.4 per game to 8.1), which isn't
surprising considering the disparity in leaping ability. Hansbrough, however,
has a significant edge when it comes to making the most of his ability to
draw fouls.
Blake是個超級籃板手(每場14.4，漢堡8.1)，漢堡在做人犯規上有一定的能力。

Whereas Griffin hit just 59 percent of his free throws last season while
averaging 9.3 attempts per game, Hansbrough – who holds the Atlantic Coast
Conference's mark for career free throws made – was an 84.1 percent
free-throw shooter while averaging 8.7 attempts in his senior season.
Blake上季罰球命中率才59%，平均每場罰9.3次，漢堡是生涯罰球命中保持人，84.1%FT，
平均罰8.7次。

‧ Lawal (Georgia Tech, sophomore, 6-8 power forward)

Thompson was a bright spot in the Kings' otherwise dreary campaign, playing
in all 82 games as a rookie while consistently competing at a breakneck pace.
小湯是國王的亮點，菜鳥球季就打滿全季。

Lawal could be the same type of fan favorite.
Lawal也可能是球季喜歡的類型。

"Any team that picks me, I'm going to do the dirty work from the power
forward (position)," Lawal said in Chicago. "I try to use my length and
athleticism for rebounding, blocking, altering shots, just being a beast
around the boards. Just be strong down there and play hard and give it my all
every time I step out on the court. I just think I could bring real sense of
workmanship."
「任何選我的球隊，我會去做髒活，我試著運用我的高度和運動能力來搶籃板、蓋火鍋、
阻礙投籃，做個籃板附近的野獸。當我上場就是很硬，打得很努力，總是用盡全力。我想
我可以帶來真正的工人階級」(以前的班蛙？)

Lawal is far from polished, with a suspect mid-range game and
cover-your-eyes-bad free throw percentage of 55.9. But his strengths are the
Kings' weaknesses, from strong post defense to an aptitude for mop-up duty
with offensive rebounds and putbacks. He averaged 15.1 points, 9.5 rebounds
and 1.5 blocks for the Yellow Jackets last season.
Lawal還很生疏，令人懷疑的中距離和很爛的罰球。但他的長處就是國王的弱點，有很強的
低位防守和很強的進攻籃板和補籃的天份。平均得15.1分，9.5籃板和1.5火鍋。

Asked to compare himself to NBA players, Lawal picked Atlanta's Al Horford
and Utah's Paul Millsap. Lawal said in Chicago he would work out for the
Kings today, but that session did not transpire. It is not known if it will
be rescheduled.
問他自己覺得像nba的誰，他說是老鷹的Al Horford和爵士的Millsap。

============================================================================
看起來後段真的可以挑一下這兩隻哦，如果真的像Horford和米爺，那國王的內線不容小覷
