As the Tim Duncan era is nearing the end, staff-writers Robby Lim and Jason
Rogers will be having a debate on which current San Antonio Spurs player will
most likely be the one to carry the torch for the team post Duncan era. Up
first is Robby Lim.
隨著Tim Duncan的時代接近尾聲，特約撰稿人Robby Lim與Jason Rogers將探討現有
的馬刺球員誰將最有可能是接下後Duncan時代馬刺火炬的人。首先由Robby Lim開始吧!
I know it's a little too early. Tim Duncan is not retiring tomorrow. But hey
it's the offseason, the NBA Draft is over, Tiago Splitter finally signed with
the Spurs, the major free-agents are signed and the 2010 NBA Summer League is
winding down so why not have some fun and try to look into the future of the
franchise.
我知道這有點言之甚早。Tim Duncan不會明天就宣布退休。不過，拜託哩嘛幫幫忙，
現在是休賽季耶，選秀結束了，Tiago Splitter終於來馬刺簽約了，自由市場的大魚都
找到東家了，而夏季聯賽即將落幕，那我們為何不來點輕鬆的，試著研究研究這支球隊
的未來呢?
Let's be realistic, the Duncan era is slowly coming to a close but he still
has two to three good years in him. Maybe four? However, with the current
roster makeup, who do you think will be the best player three years down the
road? My best bet -- DeJuan Blair.
咱們實事求是點，Duncan時代即將緩緩落幕，但他仍有兩三年的時間可以打得不錯。
也許有四年? 然而，現有的球員陣容中，你認為哪一位會是三年後最好的球員? 我的最
佳人選是 — Dejuan Blair。
Surprised? Let me explain.
意外嗎? 且聽我娓娓道來。
Blair had one of the most successful rookie seasons as a Spur. He ranks third
in points per game among rookies (behind Duncan and Tony Parker) since the
1997-1998 season and he managed to do this despite averaging just 18.2
minutes per ball game.
Blair在成為馬刺人後，是歷年馬刺人中有著最為成功的新人球季的其中之一人。
自1997-98球季以來，他在新人年場均得分排行第三(僅次於Duncan與Tony Parker)，
儘管他每場比賽平均只上18.2分鐘，他還是辦到了這點。
Not only that, last year he was one the most efficient player in Spurs
uniform. His PER was 17.8 third behind Duncan (24.8) and Manu Ginobili
(22.5). As he averaged 7.8 points, 6.4 rebounds and .61 steals while shooting
55.6% from the field in 82 games. Now think long term and as he gets better,
his numbers could possibly be even better.
不只如此，去年他還是馬刺陣中最有效率的其中一人。他的PER有17.8，僅次於Duncan
的24.8與Manu Ginobili的22.5排行第三。整季82場比賽下來，場均7.8分，6.4籃板，
0.61次抄截以及55.6%的投籃命中率。現在把眼光放遠點想一想，當他變得更棒時，他
的數據可能還會更好。
It's also worth noting that despite falling into the 2nd round as the 37th
pick in the 2009 NBA Draft amidst concerns of his ACL-less knees, Blair was
able to play all 82 regular season games without suffering any serious
injury.
儘管因沒有ACL而在2009年選秀會上掉到第二輪第37順位，Blair還是打滿了82場季
賽，沒有任何嚴重的受傷。
(注: 09-10年馬刺陣中唯一全勤者)
More importantly, he was a solid rotation player who did a great job as
Duncan's backup. Who can forget his 28 points and 21 rebound performance
against the Oklahoma City Thunder when the Spurs chose to give Duncan the
night off.
更重要的，他在當Duncan替補時是個表現穩定、分內職責做得不錯的球員。別忘了
對雷霆馬刺選擇讓DuncanDNP的那場比賽，他拿下28分21籃板的表現。
The most important part is Blair still has a lot to improve and all his
deficiencies are correctable. Another year in the Spurs' training camp can do
wonders for him. Most new players are better during the second season. After
his impressive rookie campaign there is a great chance he can do the same.
最重要的是
Blair還有很大的進步空間，而且他所有的缺點都有辦法矯正。新的一年
在馬刺訓練營將會為他驚艷。大多數的新秀在第二年會變得更好。在令人印象深刻的
菜鳥年之後，他很有機會將這表現延續下去。
I know skeptics will say that he is too undersized to be a dominant force
someday but he already proved that he can compensate his lack of height. He
scores on put backs and grabbed rebounds using his wide body and 7'2"
freakish wingspan. He even covers the passing lanes pretty well getting some
steals on defense.
我明白懷疑論者會說他的身高太矮了，將來難堪大任，但他已經證明了他能夠彌補他
高度上的不足。他能以不尋常的7呎2臂展補籃得分、抓下籃板。在防守上他甚至涵蓋了
對手的傳球路徑，得到了些不錯的抄截。
Charles Barkley, another undersized power forward became an All-Star during
his days and if Blair keeps on improving, he might project to be similar to
Barkley down the road of his career. Of course by no means am I stating he
will be on the level of a Hall of Famer like Barkley. More like "Barkley
lite."
另一位人小志氣高的大前鋒Charles Barkley在他的球員生涯期間成為了全明星，
而如果Blair持續進步下去的話，他也許將來有一天也能與Barkley有著類似的成就。
當然我決不是一口咬定他會達到像Barkley那樣的名人堂等級。更適切地不如說是"
精簡版的Barkley"。
On and off the court, #45 also has set a great example being a good role
model and setting up basketball training camps for kids. He was well liked by
coaches and players and was an instant fan favorite because of his nice
demeanor. He also has a wide grin that can certainly light up the day of
Spurs fans. So what's not to like?
在球場裡外，45號球衣也能成為一個很好的角色典範，為籃球訓練營的孩子們樹立
榜樣。由於他良好的舉止風度，他廣受教練團、隊友們的喜愛，並立即成了球迷們的
最愛。他那咧嘴而笑的笑顏無疑能帶給刺迷們美好的一天。那你還有哪點不喜歡他的?
And with Parker being open to leaving San Antonio next season and Ginobili
not getting any younger, Blair is a promising young player that could be the
face of the Spurs' franchise in the future.I mean the guy is a hard worker
and is very coachable.
隨著Parker下一季可能會離開馬刺，而Ginobili不再年輕，Blair是個前程似錦的年
輕球員，而有望成為馬刺未來的看板人物。我的意思是他是個努力勤奮，而且非常受教
的人。
He also has some lofty expectations about himself, having mentioned recently
that he wants to win an NBA title and league MVP someday.
他對自己也有著崇高的期許，近來他說他有朝一日要贏得一座冠軍盃並拿下MVP。
Young, talented, confident and has desire to win. How can you pass on a
player like that to possibly carry the torch for the San Antonio Spurs?
年輕、有天賦、充滿信心且渴望贏球。打哪兒找得到這種有可能接下聖安東尼奧馬刺
火炬的球員?
Come back tomorrow for part 2 as Project Spurs' staff-writer, Jason Rogers,
will present which current Spur he feels will most likely to carry the torch
once Duncan retires.
Part 2作者Jason Rogers將談如果Duncan當下宣布退役的話，現今馬刺成員中他所認
為最可能接下火炬的人。

As the Tim Duncan era is nearing the end, staff-writers Robby Lim and Jason
Rogers will be having a debate on which current San Antonio Spurs player will
most likely be the one to carry the torch for the team post Duncan era.
Yesterday, Robby Lim made the case for DeJuan Blair. Up next is Jason Rogers.
隨著Tim Duncan的時代接近尾聲，特約撰稿人Robby Lim與Jason Rogers將探討現有
的馬刺球員誰將最有可能是接下後Duncan時代馬刺火炬的人。昨天Robby Lim提出了他
的看法(DeJuan Blair)。接著就輪到Jason Rogers吧!
With Tim Duncan inching toward retirement, San Antonio Spurs fans are
wondering who might take the torch next. Spurs fans can remember watching
David Robinson take a backseat to his protege, Duncan, in an effort to win
the first championship for what became one of the best professional sports
franchises of the following decade.
隨著Tim Duncan退役的那天緩緩接近，馬刺迷們想知道誰有可能接下這把火炬。刺迷
們可回想一下David Robinson為了他的接班人Duncan而退居次要，試圖為這支往後十年
來最好的球隊之一贏下隊史第一座冠軍。
Who's next? Who will be Duncan's.....Duncan?
誰會是下一個? 誰會是Duncan的...Duncan?
Look no further than George Hill.
除George Hill外，不做他想。
His rate of improvement in his first two seasons with the Spurs is well
publicized, but let's review. He went from 5.7 points per game in 2008-2009
to 12.4 in 2009-2010 - more than a 100% increase. His shooting percentage
rose from 40% to 48% on an increase in minutes from only 16 to over 29. On
top of all of this, he is a 40% three-point shooter and, though most
effective as a shooting guard, he has shown that he is able to run the
offense as a point guard as evidenced by his starting role during the Parker
injury. With a shift of that magnitude from his first season to his second,
who can predict a limit to his capabilities.
他在馬刺頭兩年的進步幅度有目共睹，讓我們回味一下。他在2008-09年場均5.7分，
進到2009-10年達到了12.4分 — 漲幅超過了100%。他的投籃命中率從40%升到了48%，
上場時間從16分鐘升到了29+分鐘。而比起這些，最重要的是他是個40%的三分射手，儘
管得分後衛是他最有效率的位置，在Parker受傷期間他以先發球員的角色證明了他能夠
勝任控球後衛帶動進攻。隨著他第一年至第二年對球隊的重要性轉移，他的才能不可限
量。
In the mold of those before him in Duncan and Robinson, he is unselfish and
respected by his coaches and teammates. During the 2010 playoff series
against the Dallas Mavericks, Manu Ginobili said of Hill, "He's become very
reliable. He's played the most minutes for us because he's been unbelievable."
與在他之前Duncan與Robinson的風格一樣，他是個無私且受到教練與隊友們敬重的人。
在2010季後賽與小牛的系列賽中，Manu Ginobili談及Hill時說到，「他變得非常可靠。
他為我們打了最多的時間
(在場上待最久)，因為他一直讓人難以置信」
Spurs' coach Gregg Popovich has quite famously called Hill his "favorite
player" on more than one occasion and his defensive abilities has garnered
Hill the responsibility of guarding the best player on the court on any given
night.
馬刺教練Gregg Popovich不只一次向他"最喜愛的球員"示愛，而Hill的防守能力讓他
承下了每場比賽要防守場上最強球員的責任。
With a roster that includes an aging Ginobili, a star guard in Tony Parker
that may not be with the team when his contract is up next season, a
promising, but inconsistent, DeJuan Blair and a few solid role players, it is
hard to see how the torch could be passed to any other than Hill. The only
question is will be be ready to run with it?
隨著陣容中Ginobili的老化、球星Tony Parker下一季合約到期可能走人，有前途但
不穩定的DeJuan Blair，以及一些不錯但談不上出色的綠葉們，除了Hill之外很難找出
能接下這把火炬的人。唯一的問題是他是否已準備好接下這火炬繼續前進?
Alright Spurs fans, time for you to chime in. Robby made the case for Blair
and you just read Jason's case for Hill. Who else could possibly take the
reigns after Duncan leaves or are one of these two players more than likely
to be the one who carries the torch?
好啦刺迷們，輪到你們了。Robby說他的看法是Blair，而你們剛讀完Jason支持Hill的
理由。還有哪位可能有機會在Duncan退役後掌管馬刺隊? 或者是這兩人其中之一哪位更
有可能是接下火炬的那個人?

個人看好Blair，除了實力外，他還能吸引鎂光燈(Hill與Splitter都低調型)，有鎂光
燈加持總有些好處(名氣、牌子、金身等..)，沒鎂光燈加持毫無反應就只是個配角，畢竟
要像Duncan那樣低調到生涯20-10的球隊靈魂實屬罕見..
