This is the fourth installment of the You Can Do Better series, in which I'll
take a look at the Spurs' players and give an opinion on what part of their
game I'd love to see them improve. It doesn't mean these players don't
already have a valuable skill set or that they absolutely need get better.
The idea is to come up with realistic ways in which every one of the Spurs'
players can evolve and help the team. Here are the previous installments:
This time we'll take a look at Kawhi Leonard.

哇嗚~這已經是”你可以更好”系列的第四集了耶!!! 這次我們要來看看Kawhi Leonard

Kawhi Leonard exceeded expectations last season to become the Spurs' starting
small forward and their biggest piece for the future. His long range
shooting, a big concern coming out of college, improved as the season went
along to make him a well-rounded young player with star potential.

Kawhi在上季已經超出預期的成為了馬刺的先發小前鋒，並展現出了他的潛力。他的長射
、在大學磨練出的專注力不斷在進步，這讓他成為一個有潛力且全面的年輕球員。

With a likely increased role on offense looming, Leonard will face a lot more
pressure his sophomore year than he did as a rookie. The Spurs will need him
to evolve if they expect to stay a contender in the improved Western
Conference.

隨著進攻腳色逐漸吃重，他在第二年將會面臨更多的壓力。馬刺如果想要保持在戰況更激
烈的西區保持競爭力一定會更加需要他發揮。

What can he improve on?
Offense
With Parker as the primary creator in the starting lineup and the addition of
Diaw's passing ability, Leonard won't be expected to take on a heavy
offensive burden from the get-go. That being said (and if the way he was used
in Summer League is any indication), Leonard will likely get a chance to
create his own shot, which is something he rarely did last season. So how can
the Spurs put Leonard in settings where he can score by himself without
overwhelming him? Here are some situations that won't demand as much from
Leonard while likely addressing another one of his deficiencies: a lack of
trips to the line.

他可以怎麼進步呢?

進攻:
有Parker掌握進攻主軸加上Diaw的策應能力，Kawhi不需要在進攻上負荷太多壓力，也就
是說Kawhi有可能得到更多自己投籃的機會，這在上季是還不常見，所以馬刺現在有個課
題:要怎麼讓Kawhi練出可以自己創造投籃的機會而不至於被玩壞呢?  這裡列舉些情況~

    Isolate in the mid-post: Leonard is not a good enough ball handler to
isolate far away from the basket and take his man off the dribble with ease.
He has the tools to become a solid post player in time, but right now he'll
likely struggle against experienced defenders. The best compromise? Is in the
mid post. By getting Leonard the ball at the elbow (a la Paul Pierce), he
will have the choice between posting up a smaller player or taking a power
dribble and blowing by a slower guy. If the defender sags, Leonard has the
range to hit a mid-range jumper; if they crowd him, he can look for contact
and get to the line. If helps comes from one of the opponent bigs, he can
find someone under the basket or at the 3-point line. By giving him options
instead of limiting him, the Spurs would be getting an idea of not only how
far along Leonard's offensive game is, but also how good his decision making
with the ball is developing.

腰位(介於高位和低位之間)單打:
Kawhi在距離籃框有段距離時的持球單打或是運球過人都不夠好。他是有能力成為一個單
打好手的，但他目前面對有經驗的防守者還是打得很掙扎。最好的妥協就是向Paul 
Pierce學習在肘區(罰球線和分位線相交處)附近處理球，可以選擇低位單打矮小的球員，
也可以運球甩開速度較慢的防守者。若是防守者往低位移動阻擋，Kawhi可以在中距離出
手；若是對手對他貼身防守，他可以運用身體接觸擺脫對手；若是對手包夾他，他更可以
傳球到籃下或三分線外給空檔的隊友。要給予他更多的選擇而不是限制他，馬刺不只要注
重Kawhi進攻端的發展，也要留意他處理球的能力。

   Switch between P&R ball handler and screener: We saw during Summer League
how Leonard was running pick and rolls from the top of the key. The Spurs'
offense often starts with a classic P&R set, so having Kawhi familiarize
himself with those is paramount to his development. If he improves enough in
those sets to take some pressure off Parker and Ginobili, the Spurs would be
exponentially more versatile. But as I mentioned in my entry on Parker, the
Frenchman's inability to play off the ball could limit Leonard's
effectiveness initially. Kawhi should still get a crack at running some P&Rs,
but an area in which he could thrive could be as a P&R screen setter. A 1-3
pick and pop/roll between Leonard and Parker or Ginobili presents numerous
problems for the defense. If they switch, Parker/Manu has a slower guy they
can take off the dribble or Leonard can post up a smaller player. If the
primary defender sags and the secondary defender doesn't show, Manu can sink
a 3 while Tony can score on a mid-range shot. If they are determined to stop
penetration by showing hard, Leonard would be open behind the arc to either
shoot or drive and look for contact. If he struggles as a ball handler at
first, having hims set screens on P&R sets could be a good option to further
Leonard's development.

明辨在擋拆戰術時扮演的腳色:
我們在夏季聯盟時已經看到了Kawhi在擋拆戰術中怎麼詮釋自己的腳色。馬刺的進攻戰術
往往是從擋拆開始發動，所以Kawhi可以熟悉自己有哪些地方需要加強。如果他可以分攤
Parker和Manu的壓力，馬刺的擋拆多樣性會大幅提升。但這裡要提一下我在第一集提到過
Parker不持球時幾乎沒有威脅性，這點會讓Kawhi執行戰術時的效率大打折扣。Kawhi仍會
有一些機會發動擋拆，但能讓他進步最多的是他做為一個掩護者時，當Parker或Manu跟他
玩起1-3擋拆/擋切 戰術時，對手根本防不勝防。如果對手選擇交換防守，讓大個子守到
Parker或Manu，他們可以運球晃過防守者，或是交給Kawhi低位單打小個子；如果防守
Parker或Manu的人選擇後繞，而防守掩護者的人又沒有出來幫忙時，Manu和Parker可以在
三分線及中距離空檔出手；如果對手嚴防切入，那麼Kawhi會獲得外線的空檔，可以選擇
直接出手或是空手走位尋找肢體接觸；所以如果Kawhi扮演擋切戰術時的持球者不順利的
話，就讓他好好當個掩護者吧! 這對他的發展是很有幫助的。

Defense
We all know Leonard subverted expectations by becoming a good offensive
player right off the bat, while struggling a bit on defense. If he didn't
possess an amazing work ethic and elite physical tools, I'd be worried; but
in my eyes, Leonard only needs experience to become an above average
defender. His rebounding is amazing for a small forward too, which makes him
a potential defensive star. The only aspects I would like to see Leonard
improve are:

防守:
我們都知道Kawhi顛覆了我們的預期，進攻方面是進步的如此多，但防守反而遇到了
點挫折。如果他沒有發展出很優秀的本領，我會很擔心，但在我眼裡，Kawhi需要的只是
經驗好讓他成為一個防守專家。他的籃板能力以小前鋒而言也是相當出色的，這也足以
讓他成為一個防守之星；我唯一希望Kawhi進步的地方只有:

    Post defense: Leonard and Jackson played some power forward last season
whenever the Spurs went small and that could, and I believe should, continue
to happen this upcoming season. Aside from the fact that the two teams that
played in the finals have versatile forwards that can slide up and down to
cause match-up nightmares, figuring out if Kawhi can cause his own mismatches
should be a priority early on the season. If his good defensive rebounding
holds, there's no reason why Leonard could not spend some time at the 4 next
to Duncan, other than his shaky post D. I believe Leonard will improve enough
as a one-on-one defender to be able to check guys on the perimeter
effectively, but his post defense needs to get better. If he learns to deny
position early and then use his length to bother shots in the post without
fouling, Leonard could give the Spurs real positional flexibility to
experiment with.

禁區防守:
Kawhi和S-Jax在上季都有分攤一些大前鋒的工作，馬刺近年很愛打小球，我相信這種現象
會繼續發生。撇開總冠軍賽那兩隊的萬能小前鋒不談，Kawhi只要維持他的防守籃板能力
，他一定可以勝任4號位。我也相信Kawhi可以進步成一對一的單防好手，只是他在禁區的
防守必須要加強，如果他學會卡位並且運用自己的臂展干擾對方在禁區出手並且不犯規，
他可以讓馬刺的陣容更有彈性，也讓POPO有更多實驗可以做。

    Help defense: When the guy he's guarding is not a threat to score, Leonard
could roam the paint, swiping at penetrating guards, going for blocks and
generally making life hell for the offense. With those long limbs, quick
hands and decent hops, Leonard could be a nightmare for sloppy offensive
players, just like Manu Ginobili is. For years, every player facing the Spurs
had to be aware of where Manu was, lest they get blocked, called for a charge
or have the ball stolen. I truly believe Leonard could become a similar type
of pest. Being a disciplined defender is still the key to the Spurs' defense,
but gambling a little while helping on penetrations and post ups could
improve the Spurs interior defense.

協防:
當對方不是個得分威脅時，Kawhi有餘力在禁區補防、幫忙封蓋切入的後衛、快速攻守轉
換。他那修長的四肢、迅雷不急掩耳的下手速度、優異的彈跳能力都是對手的惡夢，就像
Manu一樣。這幾年來，每個遇上馬刺的球隊都得特別小心Manu，因為要提防他突如其來的
火鍋、抄截、甚至做你進攻犯規，我極度相信Kawhi也是可以做到的。成為一個訓練有素
的防守者對馬刺來說仍是最重要的，但偶爾有些賭博式的補防，像是幫助協防切入者及禁
區球員也都有助於提升馬刺的禁區防守。

Leonard will likely get a long leash to start the season and every
opportunity to figure things out. If he can make the leap from acceptable
defender and spot up shooter into a more well rounded player, the Spurs could
boast a crunch-time lineup that rivals any of the other league superpowers.

Kawhi在下季一開始很有可能會碰到撞牆期，如果他能夠從一個及格的防守者+定點射手進
步成一個更全面的球員，那麼馬刺在全聯盟的列強中仍是可以一較高下的。
