[情報] Pacers trade draft selection for Spur's George Hill

[candy521 (滿天都是大猩猩)]

上個月才把小希爾球衣帶回家，沒想到....
還想說，如果要換，2009年以前就換的話，至少還可以在台北看到小希爾

僅以一篇外電記錄今天的壞心情
小希爾是個好孩子，請溜馬版友多多愛護他，不要對他太兇

Indiana Pacers president Larry Bird has spent the past couple of
years talking about the need to acquire veteran players to speed
the team's development.

Larry Bird過去數年都在談論著，需要一位資深球員來加速球隊成長。

Bird did that Thursday night, and he accomplished it while also
bringing a local standout back home.

美國時間周四，他這麼做了，將一位在地出色球員帶回他的家鄉了。

The Pacers acquired George Hill, a Broad Ripple High School
graduate and former UPUI star, from the San Antonio Spurs for
the NBA draft's No 15 pick -- San Diego State's Kawhi Leonard --
and the No. 42 pick-- big man Davis Bertans.

溜馬以第15順位的Kawhi Leonard和第42順位的Davis Bertans，向馬刺
換來前IUPUI球星George Hill。

The Pacers also gave up the rights to forward Erazem Lorbek,
who has been playing in Europe since 2005.

溜馬也放棄了Erazem Lorbek的簽約權，他從2005年起就在歐洲打球。

The Pacers used part of the $3.5 million trade exception they
acquired in the Troy Murphy deal with the New Jersey Nets last
summer to get Hil.

溜馬用去年Troy Murphy交易案中所獲得的部分350萬美元交易特例條款
帶回小希爾。

"Very emotional moment right now," Hill wrote on his Twitter
page. "But just want to thank everyone for all the support.
(San Antonio) has been great to me and will never forget it."

小希爾在Twitter上留言：「非常感傷的時刻，但我想要感謝每個支持我
的人，在San Antonio的一切都很棒，我一輩子也不會遺忘。」

Keeping Leonard, 19, meant the Pacers likely would have had to
wait at least a year before he became a regular contributor. He
was projected to be a top-10 pick.

如果選擇留住原本預期在前10順位中選的19歲Leonard，意味溜馬可能需
要等待一年，才能盼到他成長為戰力。

The Pacers, who made the playoffs for the first time since 2006,
have spent the last couple of seasons developing players.

溜馬從2006年後首度闖進季後賽，已經花了很多時間在等待球員成長。

Hill, 25, could have an immediate impact with the Pacers.

身材精壯+臉蛋可愛的25歲小希爾卻能為溜馬帶來立即的影響。

He wasn't heavily recruited out of high school but went on to
become a star at IUPUI and was drafted by the Spurs with the No.
26 pick in the 2008 draft.

他並非來自高中籃球名校，就讀IUPUI成為校隊球星，在2008年被馬刺以
第26順位選中。

"I think it's great for the Pacers, great for George, and
ultimately great for IUPUI," IUPUI coach Todd Howard said in a
statement release by the school. " He's been an ambassador for
our program and it's great that he's going to have the
opportunity to continue to showcase his skills in his hometown."

「我認為這對溜馬是好事，對小希爾也是好事，當然對IUPUI也是好事。」
IUPUI教練Todd Howard透過學校發表的聲明稿指出，「他是我們的最佳代
言人，而現在他有回到家鄉繼續展現球技的機會。」

Spurs coach Gregg Popovich quickly became a fan of Hill for his
work ethic and versatility.

馬刺教頭Gregg Popovich很快就成為小希爾的球迷，因為他的拚戰精神和
才華洋溢。

"We can put him at (shooting guard) because he can guard those
guys, runs the floor well and he's a good rebounder," Popovich
said during a 2009 interview.

老波在2009年接受採訪時表示，「我們可以把他放在得分後衛，因為他可
以守住那些二號位置球員，他能掌握節奏，也是個籃板好手。」

Bird has had his eye on Hill since he entered the NBA. Bird talked
to the Spurs about Hill during the summer of 2010 before the Pacers
traded for Darren Collison.

大鳥從小希爾一進入NBA就在注意他，早在2010年夏天，換來Darren Collison
前，溜馬就曾馬刺討論交易小希爾的可能性。

"We're very pleased to get a player that has NBA experience,"
Bird said.

大鳥說：「我們很高興能得到一位具有NBA經驗的球員。」

"We've been after him for a while. San Antonio always told us they
didn't have interest in trading him."

「我們已經注意他好一段時間了，馬刺總是回覆我們，他們沒有興趣交易
小希爾。」

Hill played an important role coming off the bench and starting
for the injured ony Parker at times during his three years with
the Spurs.

三年來，在Tony Parker受傷期間，小希爾不論從板凳出發或是先發出賽，
都扮演了重要角色。

Hill averaged 11.6 points and 2.5 assists last season for the Spurs.

去年他繳出平均11.6分和2.5助攻。

The addition of Hill will make for interesting competition between
him and Collison for the starting point guard position.

小希爾的加入，也將帶來他與Collison之間的先發控衛之爭。

Collison started all 79 games he appeared in last season and was
never threatened after T.J. Ford was demoted by former coach Jim
O'Brien.

Collison去年79場出賽全數先發，T.J. Ford退居板凳後，就再也沒有人可
以影響他的位置。

Hill averaged 14.8 points and 3.6 assists in 55 starts, compared
to 8.4 points in 176 games off the bench in his career.

小希爾在生涯55場先發中繳出14.8分和3.6助攻，176場替補出賽則為8.4分。

Hill, like Lance Stephenson, can play both guard positions.

小希爾就和Lance Stephenson一樣，一號位和二號位都可以打。

"It'll be good competition, which will only make us better,"
Collison said during a phone interview. "He's a very good defender
and he can play both guard spots."

Collison表示：「這會是很良性競爭，只會讓我們兩人都變得更好，他是位
好的防守球員，兩個位置都能打。」

Hill's defensive ability means the Pacers no longer have to assign
Paul George to defend point guards.

小希爾的防守能力意味溜馬不需再讓Paul George去防守對手控衛。

Hill's addition likely signals the end of A.J. Price's time with
the Pacers.

A.J. Price的上場時間也將受到影響。

The Pacers will have to improve their frontcourt depth once free
agency starts after an expected NBA lockout.

預期中可能發生的封館落幕後，溜馬也還需要補強前場戰力。

Big men Jeff Foster, Josh McRoberts and Solomon Jones are
unrestricted free agents.

上面這三個傢伙都是非受限自由球員。
