Celtics Fill Needs by Drafting Smart, Young 新闻出处(必填):Celtics.com 作者:Marc D'Amico NEW YORK – It’s no secret that the Celtics, who ranked 26th in the league in scoring and 28th in the league in field goal percentage, struggled to put the ball through the basket last season. 我们上一个赛季那惨不忍赌的命中率(28)和场均得分(26)已经是不能说的秘密 老实讲我个人觉得球队连将球投进篮框这件事都变得无比的艰难... They’re betting that their two first-round draft picks, Marcus Smart and James Young, will help to change that. 我们将今年的两个首轮选秀权梭哈，拿回M.Smart和J.Young这两名球员 The Celtics used their highest draft pick since 2007, sixth overall, to select Smart in the 2014 NBA Draft on Thursday night. Smart starred at Oklahoma State for two years and averaged 18.0 points per game as a sophomore last season. 第6顺位是我们自2007年以来的最高顺位(07,J.Green#5)，我们选了M.Smart， 奥克拉荷马州大大二生(20岁)，去年场均18.0分、5.9篮板、4.8助攻、2.9抄截 Offense continued to flow into Boston 11 picks later when the team snagged Young with the 17th overall selection. Young nearly led the national runner-up Kentucky Wildcats in scoring last season with an average of 14.3 PPG, and he did lead them in scoring in the title game by dropping in 20 points against UConn. 接者又在第17顺位挑中在C's内部选秀名单中排名11的J.Young， Young上赛季场均14.3分、4.3篮板，上赛季率领肯塔基州大成功打进决赛，尽管最後 仍然败给了UConn屈居亚军，但他仍旧在决赛中缴出全队最高的20分7篮板。 While it’s clear that both Smart and Young are scorers, they vary greatly in how they put their points in the board. 很明显选进这两位都是得分好手，但他们在进攻上却有着不同的风格 Smart can be summed up in one word: aggressive. He has an innate ability to get to the basket and he uses that skill to his advantage. M.Smart的球风非常具有侵略性，他在篮框附近有种与生俱来的能力，靠着体型和速度能够 造成对手很大的威胁。 There were only 27 players in the country who attempted more free throws last season than Smart, who earned 250 attempts from the charity stripe. Had he not missed three games, it’s conceivable that he would have been in the top 10 in the nation in that category. 上个赛季Smart共获得250次罚球机会，全美排名28位 但要是没有那三场禁赛的话，他单罚球数大概预计排到前十 Do you know where the Celtics ranked last season in free throw attempts per game? Twenty-seventh in the league, with 20.8 attempts a night. Smart averaged 8.1 attempts per game all by himself last season at Oklahoma State. It’s unreasonable to expect Smart to duplicate that number as a rookie in the NBA, but he will get to the line. It’s what he does, and that skill will be a tremendous addition to this Celtics squad. Getting to the rack is Smart’s strength but it’s not all he can do. He’s also a developing shooter who the Celtics believe is trending up in that department. 你知道C's上一季平均每晚站上罚球线的次数才20.8次，联盟排名倒数第四(#27)吗？ 而Smart每场大概能够站上罚球线上8.1次，他那犀利的切入是他的优势。除此以外， Smart也正在积极练习他那令外界有疑虑的外线 “He’ll get good range on his shot,” Brad Stevens said Thursday night. “He ’s got good arc on his shot. He’s got pretty good mechanics. He’s worked hard on it.” Boston witnessed the fruits of that labor first-hand this week, when Smart returned to the team’s practice facility for a second workout. “In our last workout that we had with him, he reeled off about four or five in a row in live competition from 3 with the games on the line,” Stevens said. “So shooting is something I think he’ll improve and get better at.” 球队主帅Brad Stevens在看过他的练习後也对他的外线背书：他的命中率很不错， 投球姿势、球出手的弧度也不错，看得出来他很这上面做了很大的努力。 Brad Stevens说：我们最後一次训练对抗中，他能够连续飙进4~5球三分，我想在投篮 这个环节他已经改进不少，也比以前进步了许多。 That being said, Smart makes his living in the paint and the C’s can expect him to contribute to their free throw numbers next season. Young? He’s a slightly different story. 尽管如此，C's在下个赛季还是比较期待Smart能够依靠切入多站上罚球线几次。 至於Young？请期待下回分晓 The swingman out of Kentucky is known much more for his perimeter shot. Synergy Sports rates him as a very good jump shooter and a good 3-point shooter. He’s poised to improve in those areas while continuing to showcase his scorer’s mentality. “James’ M.O. is he’s always been a scorer,” Stevens told media members at TD Garden. “He’s a guy that shot it at 35 percent from 3 but 47 percent from 2. He’s got a shot that can shoot it deeper. He’s got a stroke that’s just going to get better and better.” In the meantime, Young's shot is still pretty darn good, and he knows it. He’ s extremely confident in his scoring abilities and made that clear when he told Celtics.com what he’ll bring to the team. “Really a lot of scoring,” he said without hesitation. “Just getting to the basket, hitting open shots and creating for other teammates.” Any team would love to add those traits. Boston’s offense struggled last season because it was largely missing them. 这名来自肯塔基的摇摆人在大学时期就是以投篮闻名，尤其擅长跳投和外线出手得分， 现在他即将在更高一个层级证明他得分的能力。 B.Stevens在球场边忍不住向媒体说：James就是个得分手，他会是个有着35%3pt、 47.5pt的射手。尽管还是有一点瑕疵，但我相信他未来会越来越好的。 即便是现阶段，Young的投篮也是挺不错的，B.Stevens也对Young的得分能力有信心 他认为Young能够得很多分、能够帮助场上其他队友拉开空间、并且创造其他机会 任何球队都爱寻找他们这两种类型的球员，而C's上个赛季的贫攻就是因为遍寻不着 这两种类型的球员，球队在进攻上才会显得如此的挣扎。 Last season, the Celtics lacked consistent perimeter shooting. They lacked a guy who could consistently get to the charity stripe. On Thursday night, they found both. 上个赛季，C's一直缺乏一个稳定的外线射手和一个能够靠攻击站上罚球线的球员 但就在上个星期四，他们已经找到了 随手翻了一下，有谬误请指证 我也希望我们找到了球队的Key Man!!! -- 人中吕布 马中阿树 --
