Flying Under The Radar: Kyle Lowry The Best Of The Bench Bunch
論Kyle Lowry是全聯盟最佳板凳

by James Buffi Contributor

Kyle Lowry has come a long way from being the 24th selection in one of the
worst drafts in recent history.

Selected behind the likes of busts such as Adam Morrison, Saer Sene, Patrick
O'Bryant, Hilton Armstrong, and countless others, Lowry is creeping into
relevance in NBA circles with his gritty play and never quit attitude.

Soon he'll be creeping his way into the discussion of the top 10 PG's in the
league.

No, I'm not kidding.

K.Lowry是2006年被灰熊以第24順位選到，那年的選秀是公認近幾年中的選秀弱年，
而Lowry還僅僅是選秀弱年的第24順位而已喔!他甚至排在A. Morrison(#3)、M. Sene(#10)
、P. O'Bryant(#9)、H. Armstrong(#12)和無數的雜魚之後，

(註:2006年選秀 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2006_NBA_Draft)

以他打不死的精神和衝撞禁區的力量，我可以打賭總有一天Lowry會出現在top 10 PG的名
單上。林北沒在開玩笑！


If you haven't had the pleasure of watching Kyle play, well, then you better
find a way to get in front of a 42" plasma the next time the Rockets are on
NBA TV.

I would say on TNT or ABC, but the Rockets weren't scheduled for any
nationally televised games this year. Strange for a team in the top 15 of all
relevant power rankings since the second week of the season.

如果你沒看過Lowry如何打球那你就白活了，你最好去買台42寸電漿電視來看NBA TV。當然
能從TNT或ABC看轉播更爽，但奇怪的是，火箭今年竟然完全沒有被排任何一場全國轉播，
火箭可是任何一份power ranking都在top 15裡的，那些人是腦袋裝大便嗎？


While Kyle's averages seem modest at 8.5 points, 4.1 rebounds, 4.7 assists,
and 1.1 steals, you have to look a little deeper to understand what makes him
arguably the most important bench player in the NBA.

Listed at a generous 6'0", Kyle's per 36 minute ranks tell only half the
story and are as follows: FTA (10th), Offensive Rebounds (1st), Defensive
Rebounds (3rd), Total Rebounds (1st), Assists (9th), Steals (7th),
Assist-to-Turnover Ratio (10th), and Charges Drawn (1st).

Lowry目前的數據是8.5分 4.1籃板 4.7助攻和 1.1抄截，深入去了解就能知道為什麼
Lowry是NBA裡的最佳板凳球員。

就好比Lowry在fantasy的深聯盟裡是很好用的球員，一樣的道理XD

                          (Landry:我勒我勒?)

在眾多6'0"的小矮子之中，Lowry平均每36分鐘的數據名次如下:

FTA (10th) 罰球次數
Offensive Rebounds (1st) 進攻籃板
Defensive Rebounds (3rd) 防守籃板
Total Rebounds (1st) 籃板總數
Assists (9th) 助攻
Steals (7th) 抄截
Assist-to-Turnover Ratio (10th) 助攻/抄截比
Charges Drawn (1st). 製造對方進攻犯規次數


He also leads the Rockets in on plus/minus with a + 9.6. If there was a stat
for hustle plays, I'm willing to bet the rent that Kyle would lead the league
in that too.

For the other half of the story, you need to look past the box score.

除此之外，Lowry在火箭隊中，平均+/-也是以+ 9.6高居第一，如果要比hustle play
我敢打賭，Kyle也一定是全聯盟第一。

接下來後半文章，大家得順便看看boxscore。


Did I mention Lowry is the only 6 footer in the league with the ability to
guard two positions? Despite his vertically challenged stature, Kyle holds
opposing PG's to a PER of 15.0 and opposing SG's to 17.7.

Not bad considering he gives away at least 4 inches to almost every opposing
SG in the league.

我有提過Lowry是全聯盟唯一一個能同時防守PG和SG的6呎球員嗎?Kyle平常防守的可是
平均能得到15.0分的控球後衛和17.7分的得分後衛。他幾乎要面對比他平均高上4吋的
得分後衛。


Kyle's versatility is integral to the success of the Rockets because it
allows Aaron Brooks, the only legitimate scoring threat on the team, to play
alongside him. The speed and pressure put forth by the Lowry-Brooks tandem
makes them a near impossible cover for any team while not causing the Rox to
give up too much on the defensive end.

多功能的Lowry是火箭今年成功的要角，因為有他，火箭中唯一是得分如喝水的一哥Brooks
才有辦法徹底發揮。Lowry-Brooks連線用速度和壓迫，使火箭今年在防守端有不可思議的
表現，不至於因為擺上過度矮小的後場而被打爆。


Having Lowry and Brooks on the floor together also helps both players focus
on their strengths. On offense, Lowry plays the one, and on defense he covers
the two.

This allows Lowry to fight for offensive rebounds more aggressively since he
doesn't need to worry about stopping the ball after a missed basket. He has
mastered sneaking in behind defenders as soon as they come down with an
uncontested board and poking the ball away usually resulting in an offensive
rebound for a teammate (with no mention of his play in the box score).

This is a huge reason why the Rockets are fifth in the NBA in offensive
rebounding despite starting the smallest center in NBA history, 6'6" Chuck
Hayes.

同時擺上Lowry和Brooks的好處是讓兩位球員都能專注在球場上，進攻端Lowry幫忙控球，
Brooks無限開火，而Lowry在防守端更是可以守住對方的PG或SG。這讓Lowry可以盡全力
去爭搶進攻籃板，所以不需要去擔心火箭投丟之後還得阻止對方快攻。Lowry已經掌握
趁對方要搶籃板時偷鑽到對方前面的技巧，三不五時還能把對方的球戳掉，讓其他隊友
搶到進攻籃板，這都還是boxscore上看不到的功勞。

這就是為什麼火箭先發中鋒C.Hayes明明只有6呎6吋，卻還能在團隊進攻籃板排行榜上高居
第五的原因!


Brooks on the other hand, gets to play off the ball which allows him to get
open behind the line with more regularity. When you have a shooter on your
team as lethal as Brooks, you have to find a way to get him open. If teams
choose to guard Brooks 25 feet from the basket, he blows right by them and
into the lane opening up the offense.

另一方面，Lowry讓Brooks可以時常在外線出現空擋。當隊上有Brooks這種瘋狂射手時，
你必須為他找出空檔。假如對手撲出去守Brooks，這時候就讓Lowry有機會衝撞禁區。


People laughed at Rockets GM Daryl Morey when he said trading away Rafer
Alston in the three team deal at the trading deadline that netted the Rockets
Lowry made them better at the point guard position.

當年大家都嘲笑Morey把Alston在一筆三方交易中送出去換Lowry，但事實上Lowry真的讓
火箭更強大。


How could it be that a guy who couldn't get significant minutes in Memphis
could contribute on a playoff team? Well you have to look no further then the
team that traded him. The Grizz have a history of being amongst the worst
teams in the league when its comes to evaluating talent. I'm looking at you
Stromile Swift. And you Marcus Banks. You too Darko.

回頭想想，為什麼當年在灰熊甚至都沒有固定出賽時間的Lowry，竟然能在一隻季後賽隊
伍中做出這麼大的貢獻?那你要看看灰熊是支怎樣的球隊阿，他們幾乎是全聯盟最不會培養
潛力的球隊，像是Stromile Swift，Marcus Banks，還有Darko Milicic。


Lowry becomes a restricted free agent after this year and you can be bet will
be making a nice deposit in his bank account this offseason. Whether it will
be courtesy of the Rockets, who declined to extend him this year, or another
team remains to be seen.

Lowry在今年過後即將成為限制性自由球員，但可以打賭Lowry今年球季後的荷包一定是飽
飽的，不管是火箭決定要和他延長合約或是有別的球隊看上他。


For now, Lowry is limited to being the leader of the best bench in the NBA
along with 6th man of the year candidate Carl Landry, high flying rookie
Chase Budinger, and 29 year old rookie center David Andersen.

目前Lowry是全NBA最佳板凳軍團的領導者，包括年度最佳第六人候選人Landry，看漲的新
秀Budinger，以及29歲的偽新人Andersen。
