Utah Jazz Preseason Preview: Shooting Guards

While the point guard situation is pretty clear cut, shooting guard is perhaps
the most difficult position to predict for the Utah Jazz. Fortunately, Jerry
Sloan and his staff have plenty of options. Unfortunately, each of them is far
from ideal. Gordan Giricek, Derek Fisher, Ronnie Brewer, and C.J. Miles are
all vying for minutes here. Last season, Andrei Kirilenko, Deron Williams, and
Matt Harpring played heavy minutes there. With such a convoluted line-up,
training camp will go a long way toward determining Sloan's off guard rotation.
在控球後衛上的分工明確, 但得分後衛可能是爵士最難以預測的位置。樂觀的想,
Jerry Sloan 和教練團有很多不同選擇。反之, 每一個都不是最理想的選擇。吉里
塞克、漁夫、釀酒人和西街邁爾斯將要相互競爭上場時間。在上個球季, AK、D-Will
和哈普林三人占去這個位置的大多數時間。先發陣容仍是難解謎團, 訓練營的表現
將會決定Sloan在得分後衛位置上的調度。
Despite his injuries and occasional disagreements with Sloan, Giricek looks to
be the front runner for the starting line-up. While he is wildly inconsistent,
he is a solid mid-range threat who also possesses a cadre of creative moves.
He is a good spot-up shooter and could thrive if Williams develops the ability
to drive and kick. Giricek is surprising strong and can get to the basket.
His idea of a good shot and Sloan's definition are sometimes polar opposites.
He sometimes gets too trigger happy and hoists up shots without abandon ─
a no-no in Utah's line-up. The defensive ability is there... the desire is a
different story. He is a good passer and a below average rebounder. He has
been plagued with injuries, but according to Kevin O'Connor, he's not only in
shape but has gotten stronger. Sloan went public saying that he loves having
Giricek on the roster and any disagreements have been exaggerated in the press.
Still, with many hungry youngsters behind him, he's going to have to work hard
to earn starter's minutes.
即使他有傷痛困擾, 也偶爾和 Sloan有意見不一的情況發生, 吉里塞克看起來似乎
仍是最可能的先發人選。雖然他非常不穩定, 但他的中距離很有威脅性, 也能展現
一些具創意的得分動作。他是不錯的定點射手, 如果D-Will在切傳上能有更好的成
長, 他將因此受益。 他和Sloan彼此對於"好的出手"的定義截然不同。有些時候他
太專注於進攻, 並且毫無節制的出手投籃, 這在猶他的先發陣容中是不被允許的。
防守能力尚可, 但防守的欲望卻不足。他的傳球能力不錯, 籃板能力略差。之前一
直受到傷勢困擾, 不過據Kevin O'Connor所言, 他不但已經恢复而且還變得更壯。
Sloan 公開表示他愛死了小吉能夠歸隊, 所有不合都被媒體過度地渲染。最後, 在
他背後有不少年輕人虎視眈眈, 他得加倍努力以保住先發的時間。
Fisher's abilities were discussed in the previous article. Because of his
outside shooting prowess, he will most likely play some minutes alongside
Williams. Don't be surprised if he is an occasional starter.
漁夫的能力已在前一篇文章中談論過, 他突出的外線能力將可能讓他和D-Will一同
上場。甚至在某些比賽中先發也不無可能。
First-round draft pick Ronnie Brewer is perhaps the most intriguing of the
bunch, and one Jazz fans are extremely excited to watch. Brewer brings much
needed athleticism to one of the least athletic teams in the NBA. He is
quick and can jump out of the building. During the Rocky Mountain Review, he
displayed a great all-around game. On the offensive end, he is a capable
finisher and will help when Williams chooses to push the tempo. He is also an
underrated outside shooter. Much has been said about his unorthodox shooting
form (due to a childhood accident); as Shawn Marion, Michael Adams, and Bill
Laimbeer would agree, who cares as long as it goes in? He definitely has NBA
three-point range. He is an excellent rebounder, particularly on the defensive
end. Brewer surprised many with his deft passing and allows Sloan to have
another creator on offense. Defensively, he has all the potential in the world.
At 6'7" and with his long arms, he will develop into a lockdown defender. With
his ability to play three positions, he brings the versatility Jazz brass love.
There is no question that Brewer is the shooting guard of the future. Could he
possibly be the two of the present? He will earn minutes and can contribute
immediately. Several teams are going be hitting themselves for passing on him.
第一輪選秀釀酒人可能是球員之中最令人感興趣, 也是球迷最期待想看的。這是
聯盟中最缺乏運動力的球隊之一, 釀酒人的到來補強了這個缺點。他有速度、有
彈跳力。在落磯山夏季聯賽中, 他展現了全能的球風。在進攻端, 他足以擔任終
結者(finisher), 在D-Will想要加快節奏時, 他能提供幫助。他同時也是個被低
估的外線射手。已經有很多人提過他怪異的出手方式, 但只要球能進, 誰管它是
如何投進。我想Shawn Marion..Michael Adams..Bill Laimbeer都會認同這點。
他的射程顯然已達到 NBA距離。他也是出色的籃板手, 特別是防守籃板部份。他
熟練的傳球令很多人感到意外, 也讓 Sloan有了另外一個進攻的發起點。在防守
端, 他擁有所有該具備的潛力。六呎七吋的身高搭配一雙長手, 他將會發展成一
個大鎖型防守者。爵士高層喜歡他的多才多藝, 能打三個位置。毫無疑問地, 釀
酒人是得分後衛位置上的未來答案。但他是否有可能現在就站上二號位置呢? 他
將爭取自己的上場時間並立即有所貢獻。好幾支隊伍將因為自己錯過了他而捶胸
頓足。
Miles is another player full of potential. As the season winded down and he
was finally given some minutes, he produced. He's added some muscle to his
thin frame and has been working hard this entire off-season. Miles is an
erratic shooter, but has a stroke that will work if he continues to hone it.
He can get to the line in his limited minutes. He is a surprisingly good
rebounder and can adequately lead a break. Defensively, he has a ways to go.
He is quick enough to stay in front of his man, but just commits too many
silly fouls. He is also quite young, having come right out of high school.
Subsequently, he will be hard pressed to get many minutes with the competition
that's ahead of him.
邁爾斯則是另一位充滿潛力的球員。一直到球季接近尾聲才獲得了上場時間, 而
他也有所發揮。瘦長的體型現在多了些肌肉, 整個休季期間也都很努力。邁爾斯
是個不穩定的射手, 但只要他繼續磨煉, 將會有所成果。在有限的上場時間內,
他能賺取罰球機會。他是個出乎意料的出色籃板手, 能夠適時地發起快攻。在防
守方面, 他還有一段路要走。速度足以讓他不失去防守位置, 卻制造太多額外的
犯規。在接下來的日子, 他的上場時間將會被其他競爭者強烈壓縮。
Kirilenko finished the season starting in the back court. While it was a short
term fix due to the injury bug, it allowed Sloan to play a large, tantalizing
line-up. It's obvious AK is naturally a small forward, but having the option
could be a trump card for the Jazz. If he played extensive minutes here, it
could be the first time a shooting guard lead the league in blocked shots.
基里連科在球季尾聲擔任後場的先發位置。這是因應傷病而做出的調整, 但也讓
Sloan 能擺出一個高大、耐人尋味的陣容。雖然AK天生就是打小前鋒的料, 不過
這個陣容讓爵士多了一張王牌可用。如果他長時間打這個位置的話, 他將會是聯
盟史上第一個拿下火鍋王的得分後衛。
Harpring also is another possibility. In Sloan's offensive and defensive sets,
the two swing positions are interchangeable. Offensively, he is a much better
outside threat than Kirilenko. Defensively, Harpring matches up better with
threes. Expect to see the two of them playing a lot together.
哈普林也是另一個可能的選擇。 在Sloan的進攻和防守套路中, 兩翼位置是可以
互相替換的。防守時, 哈普林比較適合守對方的三號球員。預期會有不少時間讓
他們兩個同時上場。
Williams can swing over when teaming up with Fisher. Ditto for Dee Brown.
Free agent Roger Powell is a scrapper who may make the team due to his tireless
hustle and effort. He won't earn minutes at all, but is a Sloan-type player.
漁夫在場上時, D-Will可以在兩個位置間轉換。滴布朗同樣也是。自由球員Roger
Powell是個好戰份子, 可能因為他不懈怠的拼勁和努力而入隊。他將不會得到上
場時間, 但他是Sloan類型的球員。
To sum it up, Utah has a lot of options, but not a clear-cut answer. It is
the opinion of this writer that Brewer should be given the opportunity right
off the bat. He could join with Williams in forming the Jazz backcourt for the
next decade. Training camp will be integral. There will be a lot of competition
and it will be entertaining to see who emerges as the rotational players.
總括來說, 猶他有很多的選擇, 但卻沒有一個肯定的答案。筆者認為釀酒人應該
立即得到機會試一試。他和D-Will兩人將是爵士下一個世代的後場搭配。訓練營
將總結一切。其中有不少的競爭, 看誰將脫穎而出進入固定的輪替陣容之中會是
件有趣的事 。
