[外電] 雷霆的板凳

匆匆翻譯了一陣，又是第一次翻譯外電...
很粗糙、打大意，希望大家願意看XD




======================正文==========================

   Thunder coach Scott Brooks doesn't get the sudden fuss over
his bench.

布魯克斯不明白為什麼最近雷霆板凳被大肆討論。

   “We’ve always played 10 guys. I've done it for many years,”
 Brooks said. “All of a sudden we’re all getting credit that we’re playing 10 guys. It’
s baffling that we’re all of a sudden talking about it.”

教練表示：我們本來就是十個人的輪替呀！每年都是。

   The fuss isn’t so much over the number of guys coming off the bench, but
rather the numbers those guys are putting up. For a team so reliant on its
two superstars, Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook, the Thunder bench is
scoring more this season than at any time during the Big Three era with super
sixth man James Harden, as well as last season when Kevin Martin replaced the
Houston-bound Harden.

重點不在輪替人數，在於這些板凳的人的貢獻。
雷霆的板凳從哈登當第六人、小馬丁當第六人，一直到現在，
板凳的貢獻這一季是最多的。

   This Thunder bench (according to hoopsstats.com) ranks 11th in the league in
scoring (33.8 ppg) and is statistically blowing away past incarnations in a
number of categories: Sixth in rebounding (17.1), eighth in offensive
rebounding (4.7), 11th in assists (7.2), third in field-goal percentage
(47.4) and ninth in minutes (19.2). That’s a top-11 ranking in six key
categories.
   Last season’s bench ranked in the bottom 11 in five of those categories
(field-goal percentage, 45.2, being the lone exception).

雷霆的板凳這一季在得分、籃板、進攻籃板、助攻、FG%
和上場時間都排名聯盟前十一名。
去年除了FG%以外，這些項目都是聯盟倒數十一名內XD

   Outside of stalwart forward-center Nick Collison, this is largely a new-name
bench. Third-year point guard Reggie Jackson has been excellent and his
ascension from 14.2 mpg last season to 24.8 mpg this season was somewhat
predictable after his 2013 playoff breakout as Westbrook’s stand-in. More
doubts centered around 6-foot-5, second-year shooting guard Jeremy Lamb and
his ability to handle a hefty bench role for the first time in his career.
Averaging 9.8 ppg and shooting 41.1 percent from beyond the arc in 20.7 mpg,
so far, so good.

除了老柯，其他的板凳都是新面孔：
RJ上場時間會從14.2mpg上升到24.8mpg不意外，
看看他上季季後賽RUSS受傷後表現的爆發！

第二年的小羊則受到質疑是否首次在板凳就能提供足夠的貢獻，
目前場均得分9.8ppg，三分命中率41.1%，上場時間20.7ppg，
目前都還很棒！

   Add 7-foot rookie center Steven Adams, OKC’s at-the-time unheralded 12th
pick in the Draft, spot minutes for 2012 first-round pick Perry Jones and a
still-healthy dose of court time for everlasting point guard Derek Fisher,
and the Thunder’s bench is producing at previously unseen levels.
Three-point percentage (33.9), ranking 20th in the league, is the only
lacking category.

大家都沒有料到會出頭的七呎長人鴨蛋，加上PJ3和老漁，
雷霆的板凳在貢獻程度上，是前所未有的多。
只差三分命中率33.9%還美中不足。(排名聯盟第20)

   The emergence of Adams (4.0 ppg, 4.8 rpg, 1.0 bpg in 16.1 mpg) has allowed
Brooks to limit starting center Kendrick Perkins‘ minutes to 18.1 a game.
Jackson, averaging 12.2 ppg and 3.4 apg, and Lamb (plus Fisher’s 13.4 mpg),
have kept Westbrook down to 33.0 mpg coming off knee surgery. That’s about
two fewer minutes per game than last season.

鴨蛋的貢獻(4.0 ppg, 4.8 rpg, 1.0 bpg in 16.1 mpg)
讓布魯克斯教頭可以降低PERK的上場時間到18分鐘。
另外RJ和小羊這一季的表現，
讓剛從受傷回來的RUSS場均時間比上季少2分鐘，可以好好休息。

   When the Thunder advanced to the 2012 Finals, Fisher was the most heavily
used reserve guard beyond Harden. In the previous seasons, Harden was flanked
by Eric Maynor (averaged 14.6 mpg in 2010-11) with Daequan Cook adding
inconsistent minutes (and production) at shooting guard. This is the first
time Brooks has trusted his personnel enough to regularly employ two young
and athletic reserve guards.

2012殺進決賽時，老漁是哈登以外最被Brooks重用的後衛；
再之前哈登以外被使用的是妹妞、Cook；
也就是說這一季是Brooks第一次信任兩位年輕有力的後衛(RJ&小羊)

   “The trust came with all the work that he put in last season,” Brooks said
of Lamb, who is shooting 48.7 percent overall. “When you don’t play as a
rookie, you have a choice to make: either pout or get better. And he chose
the one that we helped him choose. But it’s on him. He wanted to get better.
”

Brooks談到這和小羊上一季下苦工的態度有關。
"當你新秀年不被重用，你可以選擇生氣(擺爛)或讓自己更強，
小羊選擇了後者。"

   No doubt that the 22-year-old Lamb was the wild card for a highly functioning
bench. In Sunday’s win over Orlando, he played in his 23rd game of the
season to equal his rookie total. He went 7-for-10 from the floor for 16
points, his 12th game in double figures and fourth in a row. He was 2-for-3
from beyond the arc, giving him 30 made 3s on the season, the number he
attempted all of last season.

毫無疑問小羊是高效能板凳的外卡(?)
星期天打贏奧蘭多魔術那場，他打了這季第23場比賽，等於他上一季總出場數；
他第十二次得分兩位數(目前連續4場)、
本季投進30顆三分球，等同於上一季總三分出手數。

   In his last three games, Lamb is averaging 15.0 ppg and is 6-for-10 from
downtown. Even at his impressive clip, Lamb said he’s not happy with his
long-range accuracy (30-for-73).
   “I haven’t been hitting the 3 like I want to. I don’t know (a specific
percentage), but I’ve missed a lot of wide open shots, some big shots. Those
have to go down,” said Lamb, a 34.8-percent 3-point shooter during two
seasons at Connecticut. “There’s been games where I’ve had open shots in
overtime; open shots whether it’s the first quarter or overtime, I want to
make them.”

小羊說他的三分球的狀態還沒有到達期望的水平。
"我錯過了許多空檔三分、許多關鍵三分，那些應該要投進。"

   Lamb and Harden are both 6-foot-5, but inherently different players. Lamb,
lanky and with exceptionally long arms, is a pure shooting guard, while
Harden, stockier and listed 35 pounds heavier than Lamb, is a rare backcourt
hybrid. Harden possesses extraordinary skill to drive to the basket, and
therefore to get to the free throw line. Still, Lamb is measuring up well to
Harden’s rookie season with OKC when he averaged 9.9 ppg, shot 40.3 percent
overall and 37.5 percent from 3-point range in 22.9 mpg.

小羊和哈登是不一樣類型的球員，小羊體型瘦、臂展長，是純SG
哈登比他壯，是稀有的backcourt hybrid(PG/SG??)，能切入製造犯規。

   With Lamb on the floor, the Thunder’s offensive rating is an excellent 110.1
(points scored per 100 possessions — only Portland has a team offensive
rating better than 110.0; OKC’s is 105.9) and their defensive rating is a
solid 99.0 (points allowed per 100 possessions — only six teams have ratings
below 100.0; OKC’s is 98.0). When Lamb is on the bench, their offensive
rating dips to 102.9 and the defensive rating is quite comparable at 97.3.

小羊在場上時OffRate高達110.0分(每100波進攻)，
DefRat則是被得99.0分(每100波防守)。
小羊坐板凳時，110下滑到102.9，99.0減少到97.3

   “Last year I had to change my mindset,” Lamb said. “I came in thinking, ‘
OK, I’m going to get some minutes.’ But once I realized that I wasn’t
going to get any minutes, I just tried to stay positive. I decided to keep
working because I knew at some point I was going to get that chance, and when
I got that chance I wanted to be ready.”

小羊說："上一季我原本以為會能夠上場，沒想到會坐板凳；
但我保持正面的態度，等到我被使用時，我已經預備好。"

   So, coach, that’s what the fuss is about.

所以，Brooks這就是為什麼大家在討論你的板凳XD。
