Lakers could use a bang from big men in NBA Finals
By Mike Bresnahan, Los Angeles Times Staff Writer
June 12, 2008
Think the Lakers could use Andrew Bynum right now?
想想看,如果湖人現在可以把 Andrew Bynum 派上場會怎麼樣?
The kid keeps watching and recovering, three more weeks until he can start
jogging, but the Lakers' inside game has been stuck on a treadmill against
Boston in the NBA Finals.
這個孩子持續在觀察自己的狀態並且正在復原中,在三個星期之後他就可以開始慢跑了
,但是湖人目前在總冠軍賽與塞爾提克的禁區對抗就像卡在跑步機上一樣。
Lamar Odom is averaging 9.3 points and five fouls through three games. Pau
Gasol is averaging 13.7 points (more than five below his season average), has
blocked only one shot in the Finals and was a non-entity in Game 3 until a
pair of late tip-ins . . . off Odom misses.
Odom 在這三場比賽中平均 9.3 分,五次犯規。 Gasol 平均 13.7 分 ( 比他賽季平均
低五分 ),在總冠軍賽中只搧了一個火鍋,而且在 G3 一分未得,直到補進... Odom
放槍沒進的一球。
Odom and Gasol fed off each other brilliantly toward the end of the regular
season and through most of the playoffs, but now the Lakers are winning
despite them.
Odom 和 Gasol 在季賽後段以及大部分的季後賽漂亮地互補,但是現在湖人在他們
爆掉的情況下贏球。
Odom's first field goal in Game 3 came with 4:22 left in the third quarter.
Gasol's first field goal was a few minutes later. That's two-thirds of a
frontcourt that also starts Vladimir Radmanovic, who scored three points.
Odom 在 G3 第三節還剩下 4:22 的時候投進他第一個進球,Gasol 在幾分鐘之後進了
他的第一個,三個前場球員裡面兩個的表現是這樣,另外一個 Vladimir Radmanovic
也差不多,他得了三分。
They'll get another chance tonight in Game 4 at Staples Center, with the
Celtics ahead, two games to one. It can't come fast enough for Odom.
他們今晚在 STAPLES CENTER 舉行的 G4 有另一次機會來證明自己,目前賽爾提克
以 2:1 領先,Odom 等不及了。
He was hit with more than a dozen questions at Wednesday's practice about his
struggles in the series.
關於在這個系列賽的失常,他在星期三練習時被問了一堆問題。
"You have to persevere," he said. "Right now, it's about the L.A. Lakers, not
Lamar Odom. If I could just stay on the court to help the team do whatever,
whether it's rebounding or making plays . . . you can't expect for every game
to be a 20-point game in the Finals.
Odom 說:「你必須要不屈不撓,
就是現在,這不只是關係到 Lamar Odom,而是關係到整個湖人隊!
只要我能留在場上,我可以做任何事來幫助球隊,
不管是搶籃板,或是組織進攻,
......你不能寄望總冠軍賽每場比賽都拿個 20 分。」
"I'll go watch the tape over and over again and just see what I can do."
「我會一遍又一遍地看錄影帶,看看有什麼是我能做的。」
He'll see a lot of the same sequences on video.
他將會從錄影帶裡發現,一樣的劇情重複上演。
The Celtics are dropping off Odom and begging him to take 15-foot jumpers (he
is shooting 41.9% in the Finals, very low for a power forward).
塞爾提克讓 Odom 停在 15 呎外跳投,他在總冠軍賽的命中率是 41.9 %,以一個大前
鋒來說是很低的。
When Odom does decide to drive, he runs into Kevin Garnett, the NBA defensive
player of the year.
而當 Odom 要切入的時候,他會發現前面等著他的是 Kevin Garnett,NBA 年度最佳
防守球員。
Odom also can't stay on the court because he keeps picking up fouls.
Odom 無法一直待在場上是因為他不斷地犯規。
He barely made it to the midpoint of the first quarter before picking up his
second foul in Game 3. He went to the bench, returned for the start of the
second quarter and picked up his third foul 23 seconds into the quarter. Back
to the bench again.
第三戰他在第一節一半的時候領到第二張犯規,坐回板凳,當第二節一開始他回到場上
23 秒後,他又犯規了,乖乖地重回板凳。
Unlike Kobe Bryant, who can sit on the sidelines for half an hour, enter a
game and start drilling jumpers, Odom has shown to be a rhythm player who
needs uninterrupted playing time to be effective.
不像 KOBE 可以在下面躺個半小時,上場後馬上來個鬼之跳投,看得出來 Odom 是個
需要保持節奏感的選手,需要不間斷的上場時間他才會有效率的表現。
"I'm probably fouling too much, which would [contribute] to a scoring slump,
I guess, if you would call it that. Defensively I have to play with a high IQ
-- know when to say when," he said. "[Offensively], every great hitter goes
through a slump in baseball, goes three for 20. This is the same thing."
Odom 說「我想你會那樣說,我可能犯了太多規了,進而讓我的進攻也跟著陷入低潮。
防守上我必須要更聰明一點,進攻上,每個優秀的攻擊手都會有低潮,
都會有過投 20 中 3 的時候。這次也是一樣。」
Gasol, for his part, had nine points on three-for-nine shooting, numbers that
looked better after his late tip-ins.
輪到檢討 Gasol 了,投 9 中 3 得到 9 分,在跟進補籃之後,分數看起來稍微好一點。
He is averaging 10 rebounds in the series and doesn't have the same foul
problems as Odom, but the Lakers are looking for him to be more decisive in
the post.
這個系列賽他平均抓 10 個籃板,並且沒有像 Odom 一樣有犯規麻煩,但是湖人需要
他在油漆區內更果斷一點。
"I think most of the players out there struggled physically," he said of Game
you could tell that the travel and the Game 2 and 3 being so tight
together. . . . I think that was a factor."
談到 G3,Gasol 說:「我想大部分球員在體能上陷入困境,
你可以說是因為第二戰和第三戰賽程安排的太緊,
我想那的確有影響。」
Gasol and Odom weren't the only ones answering questions about their troubles.
Gasol 和 Odom 不是唯二對表現不佳作出回應的人。
Paul Pierce spoke about his six-point nightmare in Game 3 . . . by bringing
up Gasol and Odom.
PP 談到 G3 的惡夢的時候把 Gasol 和 Odom 給拖下水:
"Me and Kevin [Garnett] really didn't play well," said Pierce, who made two
of 14 shots. "But then you've got to look at the Lakers' side. Odom and Gasol
really don't play well. So you've got to expect me and Kevin to play a lot
better in Game 4 as well as Gasol, as well as Odom to play a lot better."
「我跟 Kevin 都打的不好,合起來投 14 中 2 ,但是你也要看看 湖人 那邊嘛,
Odom 跟 Gasol 打的真的很爛,所以你可以期待我跟 Kevin 第四戰表現好一點,
就像 Gasol 會打的比較好,Odom 也會打的比較好一樣。」
Not all the talk Wednesday was about who needed to improve their game.
不是星期三所有的發言都是在檢討要怎麼樣打的更好。
Sasha Vujacic was flooded by reporters a day after his 20-point effort helped
save the Lakers. Vujacic, who becomes a restricted free agent in three weeks,
is only helping his financial future with such an outburst on the national
stage.
在得到 20 分救了湖人隊的隔天,
Sasha Vujacic 在星期三發現記者有如滔滔江水綿延不絕,
三星期之後他會變成受限自由球員,他爆發的好表現會對他日後薪水的發展很有幫助。
Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo was flooded for a different reason. He played
only a few ineffective minutes in the fourth quarter after sustaining a bone
bruise on his left ankle early in the third quarter.
塞爾提克後衛 Rajon Rondo 也被滔滔江水般的記者包圍但是原因不同,
他第三節一開始傷了左腳踝,在第四節只打了無關痛癢的幾分鐘。
He had trouble jumping at practice Wednesday but said he would play tonight.
He will, however, yield to Sam Cassell or Eddie House if he doesn't play
effectively.
在星期三練習時跳都有問題,不過他說他今晚會上場。他會上場的,儘管 Sam Cassell
或是 Eddie House 可以代替他如果他沒辦法有效地表現的話。
"If I'm going out there at 50%, I don't want to hurt the team," said Rondo,
who had 16 assists in Game 2.
Rondo 說:「如果我只恢復到百分之五十,我不想傷害這支球隊,」
他第二場比賽傳出 16 次助攻。
"Eddie and Sam do a great job of running the team, so I'll let them have it."
「Eddie 和 Sam 在帶領球隊跑動上做的很好,所以我會把比賽託付給他們。」
