[專欄] 失去火箭的宅爵，轉向新歡湖人的懷抱

[celestial318 (強尼)]

http://0rz.tw/MUqRE


The Jazz could have avoided this series if they could have beaten the Lakers in

their final game of the season, but the Jazz let a one-point game late in the

third quarter turn into a 13-point rout. That left Utah coach Jerry Sloan

sounding as if he was conceding the series before it even starts:


爵士本可在最後一場對陣湖人的比賽中取勝並藉此在第一輪避開紫金軍團，但天助自助者

，在第三節末尚只有一分差的比賽卻因爵士的兵敗如山倒導致他們最後以13分之差輸球。

受到打擊的教皇甚至在季後賽尚未開打之前便發表了示敵以弱的言論:


"We didn't give them much of a battle and, knowing that we're going to have to

play them again, it looks pretty bleak," Sloan said. "Hate to say that, but

it's one of those things."


"這場比賽我們並沒有對他們造成太大的威脅。這也罷了，但當我醒覺到我們必須第一輪

就要面對他們時，我的人生在剎那間就變成黑白的，吃再多的許榮助保肝丸也沒有用。"

教皇表示。 "我很討厭這麼說，因為酸民會以為是暗黑兵法，但事實卻是如此。"


As bleak as it might look, with the Lakers winning 17 more games in the regular

season than the Jazz and coming into the Playoffs as winners of seven of their

last 10 games -- while the Jazz have lost seven of their last 10 -- three

eight-seeds have pulled off an upset before.


教皇今罕漫貢位很老實，而我們再來看看一些可以支持他言論的事實: 湖人在打完正規賽

後比爵士多取得了17場的勝利。兩者在最後十場比賽的數據皆為70% -- 只不過湖人是勝率

，爵士是敗率...，且NBA史上至今只演出過了三次的黑八傳奇。


Head-to-head


Kobe Bryant vs. Deron Williams: Bryant might be the best player in the world,

but his former Olympics teammate Williams plays as if he has a shot at that

title when he goes up against the Lakers. Williams averaged 22 points and 12

assists in three games against L.A. this season.

While Bryant is accustomed to locking down wing players, he didn't put it past

switching to Williams and chasing a point guard around the court if necessary.

"He's a problem," Bryant said. "He was a problem for us last year in the series

. He'll be a problem for us this year in the series."

Bryant has been a problem for the Jazz as well, averaging 31 points, four

rebounds and 4.3 assists in three games against Utah this year.


對戰重點:


小飛俠科比vs小胖跌龍


Kobe可能是地球上最強的籃球員，(以上為作者言論，不代表譯者立場，若要抱怨請寄信

至作者信箱。為免諸位辭不達意，譯者提供版本如下以供參考:

Kobe number 1? Bullshits! He only get ball and shoot and shoot and shoot and

shoot, no pass. No Shaq, no Gasol, Lakers is no good, Kobe is no use.)

但曾與其共同征戰奧運的隊友跌龍每每於對戰湖人時大喊一聲: 老師公你大顯威靈阿!!!

，表現就有如請神上身一般神勇。本季對戰湖人的比賽中跌龍平均可拿下22分以及送出

12次的助攻。

Kobe通常是會去看守敵方的搖擺人並發揮其大鎖的功能，但如果必要的話他也不排除對戰

爵士時改為全場跟著跌龍的屁股後面跑。"他真的很讓我們頭大"，Kobe表示。"去年季後賽

時他已經是個麻煩人物，我想今年依舊會如此。"

但在談論對方前Kobe也得先回過頭來看看自己的表現。今年對陣爵士的三場比賽中他平均

可以拿下31分，摘下四個籃板，並送出4.3次助攻，同樣是令對手頭痛的數據。


Behind the numbers


.741 -- Utah's winning percentage if you do not include its putrid 2-18 record

in the second night of back-to-backs. If the Jazz had sustained that winning

percentage for the whole season, they would have the fourth best record in the

league behind Cleveland, Los Angeles and Boston. There are no back-to-back

games scheduled in the Playoffs.


關鍵數據: .741


若扣除掉爵士隊在背靠背的第二場比賽中所打出的慘不忍睹的2勝18負的戰績，他們的勝率

竟高達.741! 如果他們整季都維持著這種勝率，那麼最後他們可以拿下全聯盟第四的戰績

，僅次於湖人、騎士還有超賽。看到這一定會有人說整天在那邊如果如果，如果湖人沒有

Gasol、如果MJ復出、如果Kobe認真打...，但你必須要了解一件事，在季後賽中是沒有安

排背靠背的比賽的。


Five big questions


1. How healthy are these teams?


The Jazz, not very. Former All-Star center Mehmet Okur missed Tuesday's game

with a bum hamstring and Utah's starting small forward, C.J. Miles, sat out the

last two games with a dislocated finger. If Okur and Miles aren't at 100

percent, the Jazz lose two of their top 3-point threats. Carlos Boozer is only

averaging 14.1 points a game since coming back from a knee injury in February (

to go with 3.7 fouls per night), so you're looking at a depleted roster.

The Lakers, on the other hand, welcomed Andrew Bynum back from a knee injury

for the last four games and he averaged 17.3 points and 5.5 rebounds. That's

not far from the 14.3 and 8.0 he put up for the season.


五大問題(最近很愛搞這套...)


1. 這兩隊的球員是否頭好壯壯?


爵士隊可能需要多吃點愛之味鮪魚。主力中鋒妹妹‧歐庫最後一場正規賽因為大腿肌腱的

拉傷而沒上，C.J. Miles則飽受指骨移位傷勢之苦而錯失了最後兩場比賽。若這兩位沒

有辦法健康的上場的話，爵士隊便失去了兩位他們最佳的三分冷箭手。Booooooozer自從

養好了膝傷由2月復出至今每場比賽平均只能拿下14.1分(另外奉送對手3.7次的犯規)，所

以爵士隊離完全體還有一段不小的差距。

反觀湖人藉由最後的四場比賽來觀察傷癒復出的小鯊魚Bynum的表現，而這四場他平均可以

攻得17.3分並抓下5.5個籃板，與受傷前場均14.3分以及8籃板的表現並不算相差太遠。


2. What's changed since L.A. beat Utah 4-2 in last season's West semifinals?


The average score in last year's Playoffs series between the two teams was

Lakers 110.3, Jazz 107.3. L.A. won the first two games at Staples Center, the

Jazz tied it at 2-2 when it went back to Utah and the Lakers took the next two

at home to move on. But not before nearly blowing a 19-point lead in Game 6.

L.A.'s personnel has changed a bit with Bynum and Trevor Ariza being healthy.

Lamar Odom now comes off the bench and Ariza starts in place of Vladimir

Radmanovic, who was traded. The Jazz, when healthy, now start Miles in place of

Andrei Kirilenko, who was in the first unit last season.


2. 距離去年雙方的對戰後他們各自有了哪些改變?


去年雙方對戰的系列賽中湖人平均每場可攻下110.3分，爵士則可攻下107.3分。湖人先在

主場拿下兩場勝利，但回到鹽湖城後爵士扳成了2-2平手，最後湖人再連下兩城而淘汰了

爵士隊。值得注意的是第六戰湖人險些揮霍了19分的領先而差點陰溝裡翻船。在Bynum和

Ariza健康的狀況下湖人的先發陣容有了些變動。Odom現今由板凳開始出發，Ariza則是取

代了被交易走的狼人而站上了先發小前鋒的位置。而在全員健康的情況下爵士這季則是採

用C.J. Miles做為先發小前鋒，而把去年的先發Kirilenko拉到了板凳上待命。


3. How physical will it get?


Deron Williams is listed at 6-foot-3, 207 pounds, and he uses every centimeter

of that body to pound his opponent. Okur is 6-foot-11, 263 pounds, Boozer is 6-

foot-9, 266 pounds and backup big Paul Millsap is 6-foot-8, 250 pounds. While

the Lakers rely on the length of Odom, Bynum and Pau Gasol, the Jazz pound,

evidenced by their league-leading 24.7 free-throw attempts per game.

"They drive the ball down your throat with Williams and then get to the foul

line when you go to help," Lakers coach Phil Jackson said on Tuesday when Utah

shot 35-for-47 from the line. "Forty-seven foul shots. That's ridiculous."


3. 肢體碰撞的激烈程度?


跌龍的官方登錄資料是6呎3吋、207磅，而他也不怕去利用他的身體跟對手製造碰撞。歐庫

6呎11吋、263磅，Booooooozer6呎9吋、266磅，而奇兵Millsap則是6呎8吋、250磅。相較

於湖人依賴的是禁區球員Odom、Bynum跟Gasol的高度，爵士則主要是利用製造碰撞來賺取

犯規。爵士隊場均24.7次罰球在聯盟中是名列前矛的。

"他們利用跌龍帶球推進並殺入禁區，而當你一上去協防時很容易就會製造犯規。"，禪師

說道。星期二的比賽中爵士隊整場獲得了47次罰球機會並罰進了35球。 "罰47球...幹這實

在太誇張了，這樣的話都給你們玩就好了阿。"


4. How much of Shannon Brown can we expect to see?


Brown was a throw-in to make the numbers work in the Radmanovic deal, but now

is the Lakers' first guard off the bench because Jackson likes the athleticism

and Brown's 6-foot-4, 211-pound frame. Brown averaged 7.2 points in 16.4

minutes per game over the Lakers' last five games.

Brown's promotion means Jordan Farmar has been demoted, at least for the time

being. Williams is a tough cover for the 6-foot-2, 180-pound Farmar.

"Jordan is much more comfortable and familiar with things that we do out there

on the floor," Jackson said, "but with bigger guards, muscular guards that are

pushing the ball, there's a need or potential for Shannon to help us out there

as he progresses."


4. 系列賽中Shannon Brown的出場機會是否會增加?


香濃咖啡原本只是在狼人的交易中被拿來湊數的棋子，但他現在卻是湖人的首席替補PG。

他以勁爆的體能以及6呎4吋、211磅的青春肉體得到了禪師的青睞。在過去五場比賽中

Brown場均出賽16.4分鐘並可以取得7.2分。

Brown的升級也使得Farmar暫時只能呆坐在板凳上，甚至最後只能夠回鄉下種田去了。6呎

2吋、180磅的Farmar很明顯的無法與小胖匹敵。

"農夫對於我們在場上戰術的運作及執行是比較熟悉。"，禪師表示。"但現在對方的PG是個

胖子，而當對方主要是利用他們高壯的後衛來帶球時，唯一的方法便是以毒攻毒。

Shannon的確有所進步，而我相信他將會是能夠幫助我們的一位奇兵。"


5. Is the Lakers' bench a concern?


Not since Odom resumed his substitution role, it's not. Odom is averaging 12

points, 6.4 rebounds and 3.8 assists since embracing his playmaker duties off

the bench when Bynum returned. Farmar might be in a bit of a slump, but Brown,

Sasha Vujacic and Luke Walton have all had a spike in their production from

playing with Odom over the last handful of games.


5. 湖人的板凳是不是一個隱憂?


自從Bynum歸陣後，Odom被Phil Jackson重新拉回板凳上。身為替補中的霸主(也沒什麼好

說嘴的...還是替補)，Odom上場時專職進攻方面的組織且場均可攻下12分、抓下6.4個籃板

並送出3.8次助攻。Farmar最近是陷入撞牆期，但Odom由板凳出發時卻有效的提升了香濃咖

啡、莎莎公主以及沃頓等人對於球隊的貢獻度。


Prediction


Lakers in 5


不負責任之預測:

5場內打包回家的........................................................是爵士。
