Suns’ Brandon Knight accepting of new role 小奈接受了他的新角色 http://ppt.cc/xlL5o PHOENIX — Phoenix Suns guard Brandon Knight is entering territory he’s never dealt with regularly as an NBA player. 鳳凰城訊──太陽的後衛小奈正在進入他做為 NBA 球員的生涯中未曾踏入的疆界。 The Suns’ newly-appointed sixth man has started 315 of the 328 games he’s played during his five-year career. 這位太陽隊的新任第六人在他五年生涯的 328 場出賽中有著 315 場的先發紀錄。 “I mean, we’ll see, I can’t predict the future, I don’t how it will be,” said Knight after Tuesday’s practice at Talking Stick Resort Arena. “Like I said, I’ll do my best to stay warm, figure it out. You have to be professional about it and remain positive.” 「我是說,我們會看到的,我沒有辦法預測未來,也不知道他會變成怎麼樣。」 小奈在星期二的練習後這樣表示(省略地名了):「就像我說的,我會盡我所能的 保持熱度,看著辦吧。你必須要以很專業的角度對待這件事情並且保持積極。」 Knight got his first taste of coming off the bench in Phoenix’s first preseason game Monday night against the Spurs. He scored eight points on 4-of-7 shooting with two assists, two rebounds and four turnovers in 17 minutes. 在星期一對戰馬刺隊的季前賽中,是小奈作為一名太陽人初次嚐到替補的滋味。 “We are going to be ourselves no matter who’s on the court,” explained Knight, whose starting role was given to second-year guard Devin Booker. “You ’re not going to not do a certain thing or do something that you wouldn’t do. No matter who you’re on the court, whether starters or non-starters, I think you’re gonna play your game and be yourself.” 「不管誰在場上,我們就是做好自己就對了。」當他把自己的先發位置讓給了 二年級生 Booker ,小奈這樣解釋:「你不會因此去不做某些事情,或者因此 去做某些你不會想做的事情。不管你在場上扮演什麼樣的角色──或者先發或 者不──我想你總是需要打出自己的比賽並且扮演好自己。」 While this might not be the path Knight expected his career to take at the age of 24, or his preference, he’s accepting of the role he’s been placed in because of Suns first-year head coach Earl Watson. 雖然這很可能不是 Knight 在對自己生涯規畫中在二十四歲應該扮演的角色, 或至少他特別有意願扮演的那種,但他表示為了太陽隊僅僅執教一年的花生, 他願意接受這個花生要他扮演的角色。 “I respect Earl. Earl did an excellent job of letting me know ahead of time, ” said Knight. “He’s (a) straightforward, honest guy and I love him for that. That’s the reason I want to play for Earl, ’cause a lot of coaches wouldn’t handle it that way. I appreciate the way Earl handled it and I respect him a lot for that.” 「我尊敬花生,花生在他做出這樣一個決定之前就讓我知道了,他做得很好。」 小奈說:「我喜歡他是一個直接而誠實的人,這是我願意為他打球的原因。因為 很多教練沒有辦法把這種事情處理好,所以我很欣賞花生處理這件事情的方式, 而且這讓我更尊敬他了。」 Watson let Knight and the team know of his decision with the starting lineup before the preseason even started. 在熱身賽開始之前,花生就向小奈跟全隊的隊員通知了他的決定。 The reality of the situation is outside of the perception that comes with Knight losing his starting role — not much is changing for Knight. 而現實的狀況是,在小奈失去它的先發位置以後,他的表現上──看起來 好像沒有甚麼改變。 Watson has made clear he plans on playing two of Knight, Booker and Eric Bledsoe as much as possible. 花生已經明確表示,他打算盡可能的保持三衛中的兩衛能夠同時上場打球。 That adds up to 96 minutes at the point guard and shooting guard spots, which when divided by three comes to 32 minutes per game for three players. 這就大概是先前提到的麥當勞數學 三個得分後衛跟控球後衛平分96分鐘,等於一個人平均每場上32分鐘。 (小巴:.............) Acknowledging that Booker could also see some time at small forward and it’s clear there are 32 to 35 minutes for Knight to play. 他也承認了 Booker 有的時候會在小前鋒的位置上出現,而他也說得很清 楚,小奈一場還是可以上個 32 - 35 分鐘。 As long as Knight follows through with his words, there’s no reason he can’ t thrive this season and, as is Watson’s goal for him, be in the conversation for the Sixth Man of the Year award. 如果照著小奈的說法的話,這一季他沒有理由不會成長茁壯。 而以花生給他設定的目標,希望他可以獲得年度第六人的位置。 -- ▃▃ ▅▅▅▅ ▄▄ ▇▇ ▄▄ ██   ▅▅ ▃▉ █▅ ▄▄ ▄▄ ▄▄▄ █▆ █▄ ▄▄▌█▊██▌ 04-05╴╴ ╴╴▄▄ █▅ █▄▌▄▄◤ █ - ╯05-06 ◤◥▄▄▄ ▄▄▄▄▄ - -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 220.134.88.52 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/PHX-Suns/M.1475683820.A.9E9.html
