: There is no question that the starting position belongs to second-year guard
: Deron Williams. His rookie season was full of many ups and a few downs. The
: first two months were full of inconsistent playing time─time he logged
: mostly at the shooting guard position. While Jazz fans clamored for Williams
: to get more burn, Jerry Sloan probably wouldn't have done it differently.

二年級生蝶龍威廉斯(Deron Williams)無疑會在這個位置上先發。他的新人球季有許
多亮點但也有一些不足。最初兩個月他上場時間很不穩定，甚至大多時間都是以得分
後衛姿態上場。就算球迷們大聲疾呼要求讓蝶龍威廉斯多打一點，史龍還是不改變他
的調度。

: Despite (or because of) his high draft status, Sloan made him earn his
: minutes (similar to what he did during Andrei Kirilenko's rookie campaign).
: It instilled in him a new hunger and it really paid off the final 30 games.

儘管蝶龍的順位是如此之高（或者該說：正因為蝶龍的順位是如此之高），史龍仍要
求蝶龍必須靠自己的努力來爭取上場時間。（在AK的新人年，他也做過類似的事。）
史龍這套做法逐漸灌輸了蝶龍對比賽的渴望，並且終於在最後三十場比賽得到了回報。

: He displayed a nice shooting stroke, particularly behind the three-point line.
: On a team where outside shooting is a definite weakness, Williams' penchant
: for hitting a timely three was a blessing. Through an array of deceivingly
: sly moves, he easily gets to the hole. His ability to orchestrate Utah's
: offensive set grew and grew as the season progressed. Williams is a true
: quarterback whose passing prowess will be the key this upcoming year. He needs
: to improve on the defensive end. He is not the quickest player laterally and
: subsequently he found himself in foul trouble many a game. It would be nice to
: see him get to the line a bit more. He also needs to contribute more on the
: boards, for Sloan loves it when his guards can gather in caroms.

蝶龍展現了優異的投射手感，特別是在三分球的表現。對於一支外線明顯貧弱的球隊來
說，蝶龍對三分球之既強烈又適度的出手，簡直就是天上掉下來的禮物。他往往能透過
一連串狡猾的欺敵動作，來輕易地把球放入籃框中。他指揮爵士進攻交響樂的能力也隨
著球季的進行而越來越進步。在接下來的這一季，他非凡的傳球能力將會是使他成為一
個真正的「四分衛」的關鍵。

但，他必須在防守端進步更多才行。他的橫向移動並不夠敏捷，導致他在許多比賽常陷
入犯規麻煩。他留在場上的時間多一點，對球隊才會更好。他此外還必須貢獻一點籃板
，因為史龍超愛這種有能力一箭雙雕的後衛。

: Not only is Deron Williams the clear-cut starter at point guard, but he is
: the player most likely to emerge as the true team leader. Since legends John
: Stockton and Karl Malone rode off into the sunset, Sloan has been looking for
: someone to take charge on the floor. While the front court of Kirilenko,
: Mehmet Okur, and Carlos Boozer ooze with talent, none seems to have the
: killer instinct of a leader. Enter Williams. It was quite evident that toward
: the end of the season, his confidence level was at an all-time high. Expect
: that to only increase as the Utah Jazz truly become his team. Much was said
: about Chris Paul's amazing inaugural season and that the Jazz brain trust
: had made a mistake in drafting Williams over his counterpart. True, Paul's
: season was simply stellar. That said, I expect that Williams will make great
: improvement this season and when it's all said and done, both guards will be
: the cream of the NBA's point guard crop.

蝶龍不只是無庸置疑的先發控衛，他同時還最有潛力成為球隊的實質領袖。自從馬史傳
奇落幕，史龍就一直在苦苦找尋稱職的場上指揮官。雖然前場的奇里蘭科、歐庫、布瑟
個個都才華洋溢得擠得出汁來，但他們都缺乏一個領袖所必須具備的殺手特質。

再說回蝶龍。在上個球季末段的時候，很明顯地，他展現了前所未有的高度自信。可以
預期的是這份自信將會持續增長，直到爵士隊真正變成他的球隊。

許多人在看了克里斯保羅 (Christ Paul)驚人的新人成績後，都認為爵士高層跳過保羅
不選而選了蝶龍是個錯誤決定。沒錯，保羅的新人球季確實有著明星級的表現。但我要
說的是：我認為蝶龍在下一季將會有驚人進步。而當一切蓋棺論定的時候，這兩人將會
並列於NBA的頂尖控衛之中。

: Utah's big off-season move was the trade for seasoned veteran Derek Fisher.
: While he carries with him a rather large contract, he will bring much to Utah's
: bench. First, his leadership ability and Playoff experience will be invaluable
: to the young Jazz squad. His three championship rings speak volumes. He's been
: in many big games and can obviously hit the clutch shot when needed. Second,
: his outside shooting will be handy. While his percentages have never been
: extremely high, opponents are obligated to hone in on him (thus freeing things
: up for Utah's bigs). He can light things up quickly, an element Utah is in
: need of. Third, he shores up a weak bench. He is capable of running the second
: unit as well as providing insurance should Williams have any injury issues.

爵士在季外的重大交易之一，就是搞來老將德瑞克漁夫(Derek Fisher)。雖然他的到來
亦帶來了一份過大的合約，但他為爵士替補戰力所帶來的貢獻將會是更大的。首先，他
的領導能力和季後賽經驗對年輕爵士來說是無價之寶，他的三枚冠軍戒指讓他說話大聲
，他在許多大比賽表現出色，並能在需要的時候執行最後一擊。其次，他的外線能力很
好用，雖然他的命中率不算頂高，但對手卻也永遠不敢將他放空。（而這可為爵士的長
人們製造很多好機會。）他可以很快地把場子搞熱，而這正是爵士需要的。第三，他能
支撐住貧弱的板凳，他能在蝶龍有個什麼三長兩短的時候頂上來，我估計他有時候亦會
與蝶龍一同上場。

: Expect him to play alongside Williams at times. He is getting up there in
: years and his quickness is no longer a strength. Defensively, he may have
: some struggles with the young jets he will match up with. Still, it was a
: solid trade that bolsters Utah's postseason chances.

不過，漁夫畢竟有點年紀了，而且他的速度早已不再是他的強項，他在錯位防守那些年
輕飛將軍時會有些吃力。但不管怎麼說，這個交易仍然是爵士隊值得贊許的一項變動。

: Dee Brown is an unknown commodity right now. Expect him to make the roster,
: but to pay his dues either on the inactive list or in the NBDL. He has enormous
: upside. Brown possesses a nice blend of quickness, defensive attitude, and
: swagger. He is a change-of-pace guard who could be a nice spark off the bench.
: He needs to work on his point guard skills, as he is far from a true one.
: He is turnover prone and needs to pick his spots on offense. Don't expect too
: much from him this year, but down the line, he could prove to be a draft steal
: for Utah.

滴布朗( Dee Brown)現在還是個未知數。我預測他能進入球員名單，但大多數的時間會
在不起用人員(inactive list)以及發展聯盟( NBDL)中度過。他有極大的成長空間。布
朗是一個巧妙地以速度、防守態度、以及自信所融合而成的球員，他是一個能替球隊節
奏帶來改變的後衛，這將能讓他成為板凳群中的主戰力。

但他必須多加強他的控球後衛技術，他距離一個真正的控球後衛還頗遠。他有容易失誤
的徵兆，並且他需要認清他在進攻時的角色。這季別對他期望太多，但假以時日。他將
能證明他是爵士今年選秀上的一偷。

: Sloan always likes having three point guards on the roster. While Brown could
: be that third person, the coaching staff may elect to add a veteran.
: Milt Palacio, while unsigned, still remains a viable option. He was a stable
: influence on the team last year and managed to perform well in the clutch.
: Other options out there include local product Eddie Gill, Anthony Carter,
: Mike Wilks, Kenny Anderson, and Jeff McInnis.

史龍總是喜歡在球隊裡擺三個控衛。雖然滴布朗或許可以擔起第三控衛的角色，但教練
團或許還是比較傾向起用一個老將。米爾特帕拉西歐（Milt Palacio）雖然並未續簽，
不過依然是個可能的人選。他去年在隊中表現穩定，並於關鍵時刻相當稱職。

其他選項還包括了Eddie Gill、Anthony Carter、Mike Wilks、Kenny Anderson、以及
Jeff McInnis。

: Rookie Ronnie Brewer can also play point in a pinch.

菜鳥溶泥釀酒人（Ronnie Brewer）也可以在萬不得已時上來頂一頂。
