Re: [外電] Interview Part II: John Salmons and …

[GodEyes (上帝請救我......)]

其實我原本就對鮭魚回鍋沒啥太大反感，

現在小卡離開了，

反而讓我覺得這是筆加分的交易。


雖然西佛說了鮭魚是三號，

但原本我自己的想法就是開季 sf 維持小賈先發，

鮭魚機動打二、三號替補再看情況調整先發 sf ，

這是對球隊磨合期傷害最小的輪替。


這樣的調度方式還可以多買一份保險，

有了洗衣店的例子，

假定我們會順利留下 MT ，  （總不可能要省到連受限自由球員都放吧）

但我們真的能確定 MT 下一季還能維持高檔嗎？


MT 去年在黃蜂不得志的原因，

照外電的說法，

上場時間縮短跟拿球機會減少是主因，

現在寂寞來了，

球隊勢必會給他不少上場時間，

再加上他是 PG 會是持球者，

正好就是之前讓 MT 表現下滑的因素，

雖然 MT 還會是 G 的主要輪替者之一，

但有鮭魚在陣，

無疑還是為 MT 可能在新球季磨合適應不良提供了很好的保障。

（其實這點也適用在 TE 身上，

快樂持球了兩季，

要開始學習無持球打法的他，

適應不良的可能性或許會比 MT 來得嚴重）



即使 G 不是問題，

現在小卡離隊，

鮭魚在三號上場的時間可以理所當然增加，

算是剛好也合了教練的調度。


我不清楚西佛以前在太陽、超音速是個怎樣的教練，

但在國王這兩季，

他真的讓我覺得他是個只會用已經是接近完成品又還不錯的球員，

大懶、洗衣店、 Udoka 就是很好的例子，

你會看到他們做的事情其實跟在原母隊差別不大，

只是來國王是不是剛好是教練要你會的而已，

鮭魚無論在二、三號都能提供這點，

總而言之，

先把大纜是否續約的問題放下，

在一 ～ 三號這點 Petrie 已經盡量滿足教練的需求，

如果在新球季二三號還是問題，

那我真的希望西佛能夠越早離開越好，

我還是很希望他不是下一季的教練就是，

我真的很擔心到下季末依然看到的是 TE、表弟還在用他們的天賦打球.......

: http://0rz.tw/FoCHA
: James Ham: You just brought in Salmons and that gives you five small forwards
: (pre-Omri Casspi trade), how is that situation going to settle out?  Is there
: going to be some movement there?
: James Ham:換來了鮭魚，小前鋒變成5個人(在Omri交易前)，那這要怎麼解決？會有一些
: 變動嗎？
: Coach Westphal: Like I said, we’re not through with our roster yet.  You can
: never know what move you can make, particularly now because we don’t know
: what the collective bargaining rules are going to be.  But there will be
: moves made with our roster, I don’t think we’ll go in with five small
: forwards with a twelve man roster, but several of those players are flexible
: and can play multiple positions.  A lot of this will be addressed when it’s
: possible to address it.
: 西佛：如我所說，輪替還沒有完整。你無法知道可以做什麼變動，尤其現在因為我們不知
: 道CBA會怎樣。但將會有一些變動，我不認為我們會在12人名單中塞進5個小前鋒，但這些
: 球員都是有彈性的，都能夠打很多位置。任何事都是有可能的。
: James Ham: We’ve talked about Salmons a little bit already, but are you
: getting the same player that left here a few years ago?  Because a lot of the
: talk is that when John came to Sacramento the first time, it was his first
: real chance to be a starter in the league and maybe he was trying to prove
: something.  Do you think he’s matured as a player and might be a more
: well-rounded player than he was last time around?
: James Ham:我們已經討論過一點點關於鮭魚的事，但又讓幾年前離開的球員回鍋？因為在
: 鮭魚第一時間來到沙城時有很多討論，那是他第一次有機會在聯盟中當先發，所以或許他
: 在試著證明某些事情。你認為他身為一名球員成熟了嗎？比上次更全面了嗎？
: Coach Westphal: Oh I do.  I know that his shooting percentage was down a
: little bit this year and a lot of that you can point to the injury he had
: earlier in the year.  I think he’s in his prime, he’s got some great
: experience, he was very successful when he was here before and I think that
: there is no reason to think that he’s not a better player right now than
: when he left.
: 西佛：噢，我是這麼認為。我知道今年他命中率降了一點，因為他今年受傷了。我認為他
: 在最好的狀態，他有些很棒的經驗，當他在這裡的時候他很成功，我認為沒有理想認為他
: 沒有比之前更好。
: James Ham: You moved down three spots in the draft to get Salmons, can you
: kind of walk us through the logic of that transaction.  Was Salmons just that
: much of a need player?
: James Ham: 降了三個順位去得到鮭魚，你可以大概跟我們講一下整個事件的邏輯嗎，鮭魚
: 真的有這麼好嗎？
: Coach Westphal: He answers a lot of what we have been looking for at that
: three spot.  He’s a top notch defender at the position that is hardest to
: defend.  The best athletes in the world play the two and three in the NBA and
: he can defend them as well as anybody.  That’s a major plus.  He is a good
: ball handler.  He is a good post up player and he is a very good three point
: shooter.  All of those things help compliment the rest of the players we have
: on the roster in a way that I think will really help our offense run more
: smoothly.  One of the biggest problems that we have had to deal with is once
: it’s been established that point guards are helpless guarding Tyreke (Evans)
: in the post, 90% of the point guards in the league never guard him – if Beno
: (Udrih) was playing, they’d guard Beno, sometimes they’d guard Spencer
: (Hawes) before they’d guard Tyreke. (laughing)
: 西佛：他解決了很多我們三號位所想要的。在那位置他是頂級的防守者，那位置是最難守
: 的。世界上最棒的運動員都是2、3號，而他可以防守他們。那是最主要的，他是個好的持
: 球者，他是個好的低位球員，他是個非常棒的三分射手。這些都可以和我們所有的其他球
: 員互補，所以我認為將會幫助我們的進攻更流暢。最大的問題要處理的就是後衛在低位守
: 不住reke，所以90%的PG都不會去守他，那如果Beno有上，他們就會去守Beno，有時候他們
: 寧願去守Hawes也不想去守reke(笑)
: It’s been a problem for us because we would like to have the point guards,
: guard Tyreke.  If we have Tyreke, John and Marcus Thornton out there, it’s
: in our favor because it’s a really tough match-up.  Marcus Thornton is a
: dynamic post player, especially if he has a size mismatch and so is Salmons.
:  I think that helps our overall picture in a big way because of John’s
: versatility and his ability to play inside and outside and also have an
: in-between game.  The experience that he’s had in the league to understand
: the various times to use what he’s got.
: 對我們而言一直是個問題，因為我們想要PG去守reke。如果我們有reke、鮭魚和MT，這會
: 是我們的最愛，因為這真的很難守。MT能打低位，尤其是他有身材會造成錯守，鮭魚
: 也是。我想這會對我們大方向有所幫助，因為鮭魚的多功能和他內外都可以打。
: James Ham: I know one of your objectives this off-season was to add veteran
: leadership.  That hasn’t always been Salmons’ strong suit.  Is the
: leadership issue something you still hope to address, through free agency or
: through trades in this off-season?
: James Ham:我知道這個季外你其中一個課題就是增加有領袖氣質的老將，那一直不是鮭魚
: 的強項，領袖問題是你仍然希望去解決的嗎？透過自由球員或者交易？
: Coach Westphal: Leadership … it’s easy to know when you see it, it’s hard
: to define it in advance.  Leadership grows or people grow into a role like
: that and every team has a little bit different dynamic.  I think Tyreke has
: some abilities in that area that we’re going to see coming out next year.  I
: think Marcus Thornton is a quiet leader.  I think Salmons with the experience
: and maturity he has will be a respected player.  I think Jimmer has real
: leadership qualities even though we don’t expect him to come in  and start
: directing traffic to the extent that he probably will a few years down the
: road.  It will be interesting to see how that develops as we complete our
: roster too.
: 西佛：領袖氣質…你一看到就會知道的，這很難先去定義。我認為reke在那領域有些能力
: ，我們在下一年會看到，我認為MT是個安靜的領導者，而擁有經驗和成熟度的鮭魚會是個
: 令人尊敬的球員。Jimmer有真正的領導本質，雖然我們不期待他一進來就開始指揮，可能
: 要幾年後才會吧。
: James Ham: Switching gears, there have been some things written about how
: Dalembert might not have left on the best terms.  How did his exit interview
: go?  From your estimation, do you think that Dalembert would consider coming
: back to Sacramento?
: James Ham:換個話題，有傳言山米的狀況不是太好，之前跟他的面談是什麼情況？你認為
: 山米會考慮回到沙城嗎？
: Coach Westphal: Oh I think he would.  He didn’t come off as an unhappy
: person at all.  There are some things that he would like to see different,
: but so would we.  At the same time, I think he helped us, I think the way we
: finished the season gave him a glimpse of what it could look like at a
: minimum.  I don’t think he’s closed the door to coming back here at all and
: we haven’t closed the door to having him.  I’m sure he’s going to want to
: get well paid wherever he goes and that will be the largest factor, more so
: than him not wanting to be someplace.  I didn’t get the feeling that he was
: unhappy at all.
: 西佛：我想他會的。他離開的時候完全沒有不開心。有些東西他會有不同的看法，但我們
: 也會。同一時間，我想他會幫助我們，我想我們本季結束的方式給了他一些以後的方向。
: 我不認為他已經關上回來的門，我們也沒有關上這扇門。我很確定他想要得到很好的薪資
: ，不論他到哪裡，那會是最大的因素，比他不想在哪裡打球還要重要。我一點都不覺得他
: 有不開心。
: James Ham: Last season, I watched Dalembert workout a lot and even with
: Whiteside  on occasion.  He came in with a questionable reputation, but that
: didn’t seem to be the case here.  He seemed to be a pretty good teammate and
: a pretty good leader.
: James Ham: 上一球季，我看了很多山米的訓練，有時候也會跟白邊。他來的時候有些令
: 人質疑的名聲，但現在似乎不是這麼一回事。他似乎成為一名好隊友和好的領導者。
: Coach Westphal: Sam is a professional.  He takes a lot of pride in what he
: does and at this stage in his career, it’s pretty well established what Sam
: Dalembert can do for a team.  Most teams need what he can do and I think he’
: s got several good years left and he can be an asset to anybody.
: 西佛：山米是名專業球員。他很重視他所做的，而且在他生涯的這個階段，山米所能為球
: 隊做的已經有口碑。大部分球隊都需要他所能做的，而我認為他還有很多年，而他能夠成
: 為任何人的資產。
: Clearly Coach Westphal was on board with the acquisition of John Salmons.
:  While Beno Udrih was a valuable member of last season’s Sacramento Kings
: team, Westphal was hoping for and received the stabilizing influence he was
: looking for at the small forward position.  Sometimes it’s about fit and
: Westphal thinks he can make things work with a starting line-up that includes
: three or four high usage players.
: 很顯然西佛愛鮭魚，當Beno是去年國王很有價值的一員時，西佛還是希望能夠在小前鋒有
: 穩定的表現。有時候這是關於融合，而且西佛認為他能夠讓包括三、四個高usage球員的
: 陣容work。
