Most Improved Player: Sasha Vujacic

The entire team seemingly improved in the third quarter of the season, but no
player in purple and gold stepped his game up more than Sasha Vujacic. Once
mused by Coach Jackson as the best practice shooter in the league, Vujacic is
no longer simply an 11:00 a.m. player; Sasha has emerged as one of the team’
s most reliable options off of the bench, getting primetime minutes down the
stretch of games and proving that he not only belongs in the NBA, but can
thrive in it. In averaging double digits over his past 15 games and playing
with a sense of confidence he’s never displayed before, Vujacic will no
doubt be a huge weapon in the playoffs for the Lakers.
整支湖人隊在進行完3/4球季後已經提升了整體實力，不過整支紫金軍團進步幅度最大的非
殺殺莫屬了。曾經被禪師酸為聯盟最佳練習性射手的殺殺，已經不再是只有在早上11點投
籃才會進的射手了。他已經成為全隊板凳上最為可靠的選擇之一，常常在比賽後段進行殺
手任務，他不只已經證明他可以立足於NBA，而且可能可以在此發光發熱。他最近的15場比
賽得分平均達雙位數，而且展現他前所未有的自信，他已經告訴大家他將是湖人季後賽中
最重要的重型武器。

Most Disappointing Performance: Luke Walton
What started out as a disappointing first quarter for Walton is quickly
turning into a disappointing season. Walton has battled nagging injuries
throughout the year and has failed to establish himself on either end of the
court. In fact, the forward has only scored in double figures one time in his
past 23. Before the Lakers took on the Blazers on Feb. 26, Coach Jackson said
that Walton—temporarily starting at small forward due to the injuries of
Radmanovic and Andrew Bynum—would not retain his starting job once the team
is healthy. Moreover, Jackson said that Luke is no longer a player that is
capable of playing 30-plus minutes a night for the Lakers—a true sign of how
far Walton has fallen since opening up last season on fire for L.A.
球季進行1/4時，我們認為Walton是當時最讓人失望的球員，但現在卻逐漸轉變為本季最令
人失望的球員。他整季都在傷病中掙扎，而且在賽場上的任何一端都沒有建立起他自己的
地位。事實上，這位前鋒在過去23場比賽中只有一場得分達到兩位數。而在2/26對戰拓荒
者賽前，禪師也發表了對Walton的談話，他說Walton目前只是Radmanovic及Bynum受傷之下
的暫時先發小前鋒而已，當整隊球員都健康時，他將不再擔任先發的角色。而且，禪師還
說他認為Luke已經不是一個每晚可以勝任30分鐘以上出賽時間的球員了，最明顯的明證就
是他上季只有季初打出火熱表現後，接著你看他後來的狀況跌得有多深。

Surprise Performance: Pau Gasol and Vladimir Radmanovic

While All-Star level play was expected of Gasol upon joining the Lakers, his
near perfect transition into the Lakers’ offense has been one of the most
surprising developments of the season for the Lake Show. Since acquiring the
talented Spanish star, the Lakers are a jaw dropping 12-2, garnering
league-wide respect and in some cases, instilling downright fear into
opponents.
當大家都期待Gasol加入湖人後可以發揮全明星等級的價值時，他在湖人進攻體系幾近完美
的融入，是本季湖人比賽中最大的驚奇。在湖人拿到這位潛力十足的西班牙球星後，湖人
拉出了令人昨舌的12-2，獲得了全聯盟廣大的尊敬，而且在有些時候，會將對手陷入於徹
底的恐懼中。

Although his strained right calf has kept him out of the last five games,
Radmanovic finally returned to the form the Lakers were hoping for when they
signed him to a multi-year deal prior to last season. While everyone knows
that Vlade can shoot lights out from long distance, before his injury, he
finally began to show some of the lesser-known facets of his game—his
ability to put the ball on the court and post-up game. His improvements also
came when the Lakers needed it most this quarter, as Radmanovic was Jackson’
s starter of choice next to Lamar Odom and Pau Gasol on the Lakers’ front
line.
雖然滑雪板男孩因為小腿扭傷的關係休息了近五場比賽，但他還是回到當初湖人用複數年
合約簽他時該有的期望表現。正當大家都關注在他長程砲火能力時，在他這次受傷前，他
也開始表現出他在場上比較少見的部分—他有那個能力取得球後進行低位單打的工作。在
此同時也是湖人最需要他這種進步的時候，因為他目前是先發前場鋒線中，僅次於Gasol
及Odom的第三個選擇。


Best Overall Play: Kobe, Luke, & Lamar - Lakers vs. Heat, 2/28/2008

In a play reminiscent of the franchise’s showtime days, Kobe, Luke and Lamar
connected on one of the most creative highlights of the season Feb. 28,
electrifying a sold out STAPLES Center crowd.

Best Overall Performance in a Single Game: Kobe Bryant, Lakers vs. Mavericks,
3/2/2008

In the biggest home game since the Suns rolled into town in mid-January, Kobe
arguably played his strongest game of the season against the new-look Dallas
Mavericks, scoring 52 points and grabbing 11 rebounds. However, it was hardly
the numbers that made Bryant’s performance so memorable?it was the time and
manner in which he scored, methodically plotting his shots in the final
quarter and overtime, showing an incredible will to win that separates #24
from other players in the league. In making 15-27 field goals (30 points
alone in the fourth quarter and overtime) and 20 of 27 free throws, including
his last 17 in a row, Kobe repeatedly crushed the Mavs’ hopes and kept the
Lakers in the thick of the race for home court advantage throughout the
playoffs in the West.
在一月中太陽拜訪LA後的第一個主場大比賽中，Kobe在對上全新的小牛比賽中，強勢的締
造他的本季最佳表現，52分11籃板。不過你很難光從數據上來證明Kobe的表現有多令人難
忘。當他得分的時候以及取分的手段，那種取分的法度在末節及延長賽中展現無疑，他在
在的證明這位#24的球員的求勝決心與聯盟其他人不同的地方。整場比賽投27中15，罰球27
中20，還包然後來的連續17罰命中，Kobe一再地撲滅小牛的反攻希望，而且保持湖人在未
來西區季後賽的主場優勢。

Best Overall Performance: Kobe Bryant

Almost immediately after receiving word that the Lakers had traded for one of
the best big men in the game, it seemed like Kobe stepped it into another
gear. Whereas he was already playing at an extremely high level, #24 has been
absolutely dominant on both ends of the floor following the Gasol trade,
turning in MVP caliber performances on a nightly basis. Even more
impressively, Bryant is playing with a mangled pinky that threatens to derail
his season every time he steps onto the court. Like a shark smelling blood,
Kobe can knows his elusive fourth championship is within striking distance
and his brilliant play this quarter is reflecting just that.
幾乎在同時知道湖人把Gasol交易過來後的那一場比賽，Kobe似乎就把自己換到了另一個檔
次去了。雖然他本來就已經在高不可攀的境界，但這位#24在Gasol交易案後絕對主宰比賽
中攻防的兩端，將自己提升到MVP等級的基礎。更可怕的是，Kobe還帶著他的隨時都可能毀
掉他本季的手指韌帶斷裂傷出賽。就像是鯊魚聞到了血腥味，Kobe瞭解他渴望的第四座總
冠軍就在顯目的距離裡，而且他耀眼的表現已經在閃耀著了。
