But those paying his career extra scrutiny hold one clear truth: Lin is an essential member of his team. 自从林来疯之後，很多NBA球迷仍在分析衡量Lin身为球员的价值。但在详加检验之後， 你会发现一件事：Lin是火箭队不可或缺的要角。 The Houston Rockets’ offensive style is built around a predominance of shot attempts from near the rim and behind the three-point line. A surplus of neither type of shot is possible without the healthy dosage of speed, intuition and ball penetration that Lin gives them. 火箭队的进攻特色建立在大量的禁区与三分线出手。Lin的速度、球场直觉与带球切入， 为火箭队这两项进攻武器注入一股活水。 Eschewing a more formal playbook, the team has learned to trust each other and follow the lead of every possession on a more individual basis, taking advantage of how Lin, James Harden or Chandler Parsons breaks down the defense for them. Or it could be Dwight Howard, receiving the ball in the post, who compels the action that will almost inevitably end in one of the team’s high-return shot attempts. 撇开战术不谈，这支球队已经学会如何信任彼此，作为一只联盟中进攻节奏极高的球队 ，火箭懂得利用Lin、Harden跟Parsons的优势来撕裂防线。或是交给DH在低位做有效率 的单打。 Lin might not be at the level of Harden in terms of inciting his team’s motion, but the Rockets are built to need both of them. 尽管在主导球队这方面，Lin可能不及Harden，但这两人对於火箭队来说缺一不可。 Perhaps more important are the strides Lin’s game has taken without the ball. 或许，Lin在无球打法上的大跃进至关重要。 A chorus of doubt and skepticism met his and Harden’s pairing, since both were known to need the ball in their hands to be effective. Lin, however, has adapted to this reality, now boasting an impressively effective field-goal percentage of 68 percent on catch-and-shoot attempts, making him second in the league in this category (only Jose Calderon is better). 由於Lin与Harden都是需要一球在手的球员，因此不少人质疑他们两人是否能在场上并 存。但是，现在的Lin已经适应了无球打法，并以68%的接球出手命中率惊艳四方，在 联盟中仅次於Calderon。 Fans calling for a Lin trade as Patrick Beverley continues to look serviceable would be wise to keep Lin’s offensive role in mind. Beverley commits just 1.2 turnovers per game to Lin’s 2.8, making him the often less frustrating point man. And he is an arguably superior (if only marginally) defensive player. 有些球迷希望可以将Lin交易出去，因为Beverley看起来像是个不错用的球员，但也别 忘了Lin在进攻端的角色。与Lin的场均2.8次失误相较，Beverley场均1.2次失误让他看 起来似乎是个较好的控卫。此外，Beverley也被认为是较优异的防守球员。 But he cannot offer the firepower Lin does, and firepower is the Rockets’ currency. 然而，Lin可以提供Beverley所无法提供的强大火力，而强大的火力正是火箭队的 注册商标。 The truth of Lin’s value can be hard to keep track of, given his cultural significance and the insane floor productivity he had for that one fateful stretch with the New York Knicks. 考量到Lin的文化(华人圈)影响力以及尼克队时期在球场上的疯狂演出，他真正的 价值是难以量化的。 But without him in 10 games this year, Houston’s winning percentage dips to .600, down from its average of .650. With him, it's at the elevated clip of .666. 相较於0.650的平均胜率，在Lin缺阵的十场比赛中，火箭的胜率下滑到0.600。而当Lin 在阵中时，火箭的胜率提升至0.666。 Beverley’s surer handles are simply a somewhat illusory advantage over Lin, as Houston’s principles account for extra turnovers. They make the usually successful bet that they can draw more benefit from a wild, open-court game than their opponents can. Beverley may keep the ball better, but he does less with it. 确实，在保护球与失误这方面，Beverley似乎是优於Lin的。火箭相信在全场开放式的 进攻当中能获得更多效益。Beverley也许可以将球保护得很好，确无法做到上述这点。 He can’t bring the heat that Lin does. 他无法带来可与Lin相比拟的激情。 Lin is also an important locker room figure. He understands where his team is and where it needs to go as well as any Rockets critic does. 此外，Lin也是休息室中的重要人物。他充分了解球队的处境以及球队所要达到的高度， 正如同那些批评火箭队的人一样。 As Lin stated in the video above, “We need to be more cold-blooded as a team. We need to put teams away...we need to build an identity.” 正如同Lin在影片中所说的，「身为一支球队，我们必须更无情。我们要击垮其他球队 ....我们必须建立一致性。」 Such a presence can't be overlooked when we consider that the Rockets still boast one of the very youngest squads in the league. Harden is a bit more mum than your average superstar, and Howard—their rotation's elder statesman— has his history of being a distraction. 由於火箭队有着一群年轻球员，Lin的这段发言实在不容忽视(应该是指建立一致性那边) 。跟其他球星相比，Harden显得沉默寡言，而队中的老大哥DH，却以爱搞笑的开心果着 称。 Despite the media whirlwind constantly around him, Lin’s head has never left the game. His lead has been one for his teammates to follow as the hype, coverage and expectations around them have risen hugely this season. 尽管媒体仍持续不断关注围绕着Lin，他的心思却没离开过球场。这个球季，各方的宣传 、报导与期望水涨船高，而Lin扮演了队友们的好榜样。 Simply put, he’s a terrific leader. 总归一句，Lin是个了不起的领袖。 Those who want to continue questioning Lin's value should catch up to today. Jeremy Lin is no flash in a pan—he's an indispensable Rocket. 那些想继续质疑Lin的人们别再白费心力了。Jeremy Lin不是一闪即逝的流星，而是火 箭队那颗耀眼的星星。 ----------------------------------------------------- 有翻得不好或是错误的地方还麻烦各位指正了 谢谢~ --
