TrueHoop的Henry Abbott在冠军赛开打前，从例行赛的两次交手观察到的重点，很长， 所以我只摘录了有关对Kobe的防守部分（其实整篇的重点也是这个）。我对 Allen的防 守那边不是很同意，我认为Ray Allen在Kobe跳投的时候已经做到了content和challenge 的工作，这样也就够了。除此之外还蛮中肯的，而且我们的第一战看起来的确还是用这 套。 http://0rz.tw/b84c4 When the Celtics Played the Lakers June 2, 2008 1:04 PM Tom Thibodeau vs. Kobe Bryant Through it all, most of the time, the rest of the Celtics' defense stayed in position to protect the rim and stymie the one thing Bryant can do that can kill you -- get in the lane, make easy shots, and draw fouls. 大部分时候，比赛从头到尾，塞尔蒂克其余的防守者都留在原位，保护篮框，妨碍Kobe 作出能够打爆你的事－切入禁区，简单的进球，吸引犯规。 The hope, apparently, was to keep Bryant off the line, and on the perimeter. Sticking Bryant out there on the perimeter, alone against one of Boston's weakest defenders in Ray Allen (and a player who had, himself, been making Bryant look bad at the other end), was just the mother of all dares for Bryant. Triangle be damned. Bryant fired away. 很明显地，这是希望让Kobe远离罚球线，留在外线。把Bryant留在外线跳投，加上波士 顿最差的防守者之一Ray Allen（但是这个人在场上的另一端，可以让 Bryant看起来有 点糟），就是所有对Bryant挑战的根源。三角战术丢一旁。让Bryant不断开火。 This is the Jedi mind trick that Tom Thibodeau is playing on Bryant, who is a very confident long-distance shooter. You're leaving me, all alone, out here, with him? 这就是Thibodeau对 Bryant玩的「绝地武士」心态诡计，後者是一个非常自信的长距离 射手。你让我，一个人，在那里，只让他防守我？ It's not a new idea. For instance, in Jack McCallum's book Seven Seconds or Less we learn that a couple of years ago both the Sun and the Laker coaching staffs thought high-volume shooting from Bryant hurt the Lakers. 这不是个新想法。举例来说，在Jack McCallum的书「Seven Seconds or Less」中，我 们知道几年前，太阳队和湖人队的教练团都认为，Bryant高比例的跳投会伤害湖人队。 The Celtics have a real strength: Going to the hoop against Boston is tough. Perkins, Garnett, and Posey are all very active and capable. (Also, if someone besides Ray Allen were guarding Bryant, Allen would have to be a helper, and I'm not at all convinced he could do that very well.) Whenever Bryant got near the rim he was usually shooting surrounded by three or four long bodies, which resulted in runners, floaters, and scoops, instead of layups and dunks. 塞尔蒂克有个真正的优点：对上波士顿，要挑战篮框是很艰难的。Perkins、Garnett和 Posey非常有活动力，也很有能力。（还有，如果 Allen以外的人在防守Bryant，Allen 会来帮忙防守，虽然我不认为他会作的非常好）。不管何时，只要Bryant接近篮框投球 ，他都会被三或四个长人包围，结果造成跑来跑去，空中飘移，还有包夹，而不是上篮 和灌篮。 I should also point out that in both of these games, Bryant did not seem to have his usual elevation. Who knows what unreported ailments may have been dogging him at that point. But he was certainly not flying. At one point, he even caught a nice lob at the rim, and landed with it. 我也应该指出在这两场比赛，Bryant似乎都没有像往常跳的那麽高。没人知道是不是有 什麽隐密未报的小伤。但是他就是没有飞起来。在其中一球，他甚至接到一个篮框附近 高度的传球，然後他降落到地面。 He has looked more spry recently, but while Bryant may have Jordan-like scoring numbers, he's certainly not getting them by dunking over big men. Not against Boston. 他最近看起来比较敏捷，但是当Bryant可能有像Jordan那样的得分数字时，他绝对不是 靠在长人身上灌篮得来。不是在对上波士顿时。 But who needs to fight to the rim, you can see Bryant thinking, when you can score all day against that guy on the perimeter? 但是谁需要去挑战篮框呢？你可以看到Bryant思考着，当你一整场都可以对这个人用外 线投篮得分呢？ Luckily for the Celtics, Bryant's shot was more than a little off, and he couldn't take advantage. Meanwhile, the Lakers' total offensive efficiency plummeted. A Bryant miss from deep doesn't get others open, it doesn't draw a lot of fouls, and it doesn't wear down defenders. 对塞尔蒂克来说，很幸运地，Bryant的手感不只是小熄火而已，而且他没有取得优势。 同时，湖人队整体的进攻效率很糟。Bryant外线不进，没办法让其他人取得空档，没办 法吸引很多犯规，而且没办法削弱防守者。 In the first game, in Boston, Bryant shot a very respectable three-for-six from 3-point land. But he also shot five very long two-pointers -- the least efficient shots in the game -- and only made one of those. Below the free-throw line, on the other hand, he made five of ten shots. 在第一场球，在波士顿，Bryant在三分线相当可观地投6中3。但是他也投了五个非常远 的两分球－比赛里最没效率的投篮－而且只进了一球。另一方面，在罚球线内，他投10 中 5。 The second time they played each other everyone was angry. There were six technicals, and Kevin Garnett got stitches above his eye. The Lakers were also apparently cranky that, for the first half, they had to wear short shorts as part of a throwback theme. 第二次两队碰面时，每个人都很生气。整场球有六次技术犯规，Kevin Garnett 在眼睛 下面缝了几针。湖人队也很明显地暴躁不安，在上半场，因为复古主题的关系，他们得 要穿小短裤。 Bryant took all that energy and put it into gunning. By my count, he took 14 shots from beyond the free-throw line and missed them all. Closer in he made six of 11. Bryant能量大开，四处开火。据我计算，他在罚球线外投了14球，一球都没进。罚球线 以内，他投11中6。 The grand totals show that in the two games, Bryant took 46 shots, which he made into 50 points, thanks in large part to being 17-20 from the line. He had only six assists, in the two games combined, and none of his teammates really got all that hot. 两场球的总合，Bryant出手46次，总共得了50分，很大部分要感谢罚球线上罚20中17。 他只有六次助攻，两场比赛合计起来，没有一个队友真的手感很热。 From beyond the free-throw line, again by my count, he finished 4-25 over the two games, and not surprisingly, the Celtics won both games easily. That means, to me, that the Celtics will almost certainly have to keep trying this approach. It's a no-brainer. If you were going to tweak anything, in fact, you might urge Allen not to play harder, but to be even more careful not to foul -- as the free throw line is where Bryant has been most efficient. 至於罚球线以外的距离，再次根据我的计算，他两场球投25中 4，不令人惊讶地，两场 比赛塞尔蒂克都赢的很轻松。对我来说，这表示塞尔蒂克几乎会继续用这个方法。简直 想都不用想。事实上，如果你想要改变什麽，也许你会力劝 Allen不要守的更凶，但是 更重要地是不要犯规－因为罚球线是Bryant得分最有效率的地方。 That means Bryant ought to be getting plenty of good opportunities to score from the perimeter. His ability to hit those shots, or to turn the space he can create for himself into opportunities for his teammates like Pau Gasol, could decide the series. 这代表Bryant会得到很多外线跳投的好机会。他投进那些球的能力，或是将他替自己创 造的空间，转化成队友，像是Pau Gasol的机会，可能会决定这个系列。 The only reason Doc Rivers and Tom Thibodeau might pause, is that San Antonio essentially just tried this same thing in the Western Conference finals -- with an even better defender, Bruce Bowen -- yet Bryant shot very well as the Lakers rolled. 唯一让Doc Rivers和 Tom Thibodeau可能迟疑的，就是圣安东尼奥在西区冠军赛，就是 用完全这一套方法－甚至有更好的防守者，Bruce Bowen－但是 Bryant投的很好，所以 湖人晋级了。 For that reason, ESPN's David Thorpe imagines the Celtics probably are at least considering plan B. 因为这个理由，ESPN的David Thrope想像塞尔蒂克可能至少会考虑B计画。 "If you're Gregg Popovich right now, you're thinking that you executed your plan about as well as possible. You kept Kobe Bryant off the free-throw line. You shaded off of him, and forced him to make a shot, instead of getting to the line," explains Thorpe. "But now that the Lakers beat you, you might be wondering if maybe you should have tried beating him up all series long. Putting bodies on him again and again and hitting him hard. Sure he kills you at the line in the early going, but what happens in the fourth quarter, or in Games 2, 3, and 4? As the series grinds on, that tactic could make you look better and better. It might not work, but at least you don't have to deal with Kobe Bryant look fresh as a daisy in the fourth quarter of every game, which happened against San Antonio." 「如果你现在是Gregg Popovich，你会认为已经尽可能地执行你的计画了。你让Kobe Bryant远离罚球线。你迫使他去投篮，而不是切入。」Thrope说：「但是现在湖人击败 你了，也许你会考虑，应该要整个系列都跟他碰撞肌肉。让身体去撞击他，一遍又一遍 ，而且很用力。当然他在一开始会在罚球线上杀了你，但是第四节会怎样，或是第二战 ，第三战和第四战呢？当系列慢慢延续，这个策略会让你看起来越看越好。也许不会有 用，但是至少你不用在每场比赛的第四节，都遇到看起来清爽地像朵小雏菊的Kobe Bryant ，这就是圣安东尼奥发生的事。」 Will the Celtics let Bryant fire away from long-range, and if so, will Bryant convert? 塞尔蒂克会让Bryant从远距离不断开火吗？如果如此，Bryant会转变手段吗？ If the regular season is any guide, there's a championship in the balance. 如果例行赛有任何指引作用，冠军就决定在这个对比中。 同样作者，今天的文章给Ray Allen一点肯定了。 TrueHoop: Is Allen the New Kobe Stopper? By Henry Abbott | ESPN.com BOSTON -- Ray Allen the shooter. Ray Allen the gentleman. Ray Allen the ... stopper? 射手Ray Allen。绅士Ray Allen。防守克星Ray Allen？ It's a little early for all that. But not as early as you might think. 要这样说还稍微早了一点。但是也没有像你想的那麽早。 If Kobe Bryant's poor performance against Allen on Thursday night was a fluke, it was a three-game fluke, not a one-game fluke. 如果Kobe Bryant对上Allen的糟糕表现是低潮，那它是个三场比赛的低潮，而不是一场 比赛的低潮。 Backed by Boston assistant Tom Thibodeau's schemes, in three games against the Celtics this season, Bryant is shooting a combined 24-for-72 from the floor. That's 33 percent. By shooting nine of 26 -- 35 percent -- Bryant actually improved his season-long field-goal percentage vs. the Celtics. 依靠波士顿助理教练 Tom Thibodeau的策略，在遭遇塞尔蒂克的三场比赛，Bryant总共 投72中24。那是33%。今晚他投26中 9－35%－Bryant还提高了他对塞尔蒂克的整季命中 率。 And the majority of those possessions have come with Allen checking Bryant solo. Help is never far away from other Celtics, but by and large it's Allen's show. 大部分的时间是 Allen单独防守Bryant。塞尔蒂克的帮忙防守没有离的太远，但是大部 分是Allen的时间。 Bryant gives the defense no credit, saying this was merely a case of "missing bunnies ... Hopefully I'll get those same looks in Game 2." It's not likely Kevin Garnett will be sharing his Defensive player of the year award with his spindly teammate. But Bryant is not entirely correct in saying the defense offered no resistance. There's no ignoring the fact Bryant is having a hard time getting to the hole. (When Posey was on Bryant for a spell, on the other hand, Bryant quickly found his way into the paint again and again.) And job one for Allen is not to foul Bryant, and Thursday Bryant only shot six free throws. Bryant没有肯定防守，说这仅仅是一个「投不进的例子……希望我在第二战还有同样的 出手空间。」Kevin Garnett 不大可能会和他的队友分享年度最佳防守球员的奖项。但 是Bryant在说到防守毫无抵抗时，也不全然正确。不要忽略Bryant要切入禁区时遇到一 些麻烦（另一方面，当Posey防守Bryant时，他马上一遍又一遍地切入禁区）。还有Allen 的第一要务是不要犯Bryant规，而礼拜四Bryant只有六次罚球机会。 Bryant and Allen have had a rich, and at times, salty rivalry. Allen has to be loving his recent spell of effectiveness guarding the MVP. He's not going to 'fess up to it, though, likely for fear of providing bulletin board material to the Lakers. Bryant和Allen有一段丰富的，五味杂陈的情结。Allen一定很喜欢他最近防守 MVP的效 率。但是他没有承认，以免成为湖人队公布栏上的材料。 I asked Allen if his defense against Bryant was becoming a point of pride. "My point of pride," he responded, "was that my team got the win." 我问 Allen，他对Bryant的防守是不是足以自豪。他回答说：「我自豪的是，我的球队 赢球。」 --
