Let's not get ahead of ourselves here.
我们不要在这里将话说的太早。
OK.
好吧
Let's do it.
开始吧。
DeMarcus Cousins is the best thing to happen to the Kings since the
transformative offseason of Vlade Divac, Chris Webber, Peja Stojakovic and
Rick Adelman. Yes, the best early Christmas present since then. And, no, it's
not the mind-numbing desert heat, which on Friday approached 114 degrees.
自从国王失去老迪、CW、Peja和矮豆人以来,表弟是国王最棒的球员。是的,也是那之後
最棒的圣诞节礼物。并不是因为沙漠太热的缘故。
At the Las Vegas Summer League, Cousins is receiving more accolades than
double teams – and earning every one of them. The rookie has turned more
heads here than the scantily clad pixies over at the Palms. He has coaches,
scouts and assorted league executives publicly and privately drooling and
suggesting the Maloofs have scored the real deal.
在夏季联盟,表弟得到很多称赞。有教练、球探和各个联盟管理阶层不论在公开场合还是
私底下都在流口水,都说马老板真的得到了很了不得的球员。
"Unlimited potential," Detroit Pistons basketball president Joe Dumars said.
"I love everything about DeMarcus. He has great hands, great feet, terrific
instincts."
「无限的潜力,我爱表弟的任何东西,他有好棒的手,很棒的脚,恐怖的直觉」老乔说。
Detroit was among the teams that attempted to trade up to draft the 6-foot-11
center out of Kentucky. Golden State was another. Before leaving Thursday for
his offseason home on Maui – perhaps for his permanent residence, given the
Warriors' ownership change – Don Nelson predicted Cousins would be one of
the game's top two or three centers before his 21st birthday.
活塞也是其中一支想要往上交易选秀权来选表弟的球队。勇士也是。Don Nelson预言表弟
在他的21岁生日前将会是NBA前二或前三中锋。
The kid is 19 years old. He can't drink or gamble, but he's the Kings'
future, the other half of the Tyreke Evans tag team. And if Cousins performs
like this during training camp? How do you keep him on the bench behind NBA
veteran and Kings newcomer Samuel Dalembert?
这孩子才19岁。他还不能喝酒或赌博,但他是国王的未来,是reke的球队的另外一块重要
的拚图。如果表弟在训练营还有这样的表现呢?你怎麽会因为山米而将他放在板凳上?
Right. You don't. You can't.
对。你不会这麽做,你不能这麽做。
Even in the worst game of his unofficial pro career Friday, when he labored
offensively (5 of 18 from the field) against the Toronto Raptors and produced
an improbable triple double that featured 10 fouls, Cousins displayed many of
the same skills and a passion reminiscent of a young Webber.
就算是在他非官方职业生涯最差的比赛,对暴龙时他进攻表现并不好,但还是有另类大三
元,表弟展现了许多和年轻CW相同的技巧和热情。
Though he lacks Webber's length and explosiveness, Cousins, who still must
improve his conditioning and shed a few pounds, anticipates and extends for
rebounds, then caresses the ball. He throws no-look, one-bounce passes to
cutters, outlets passes that trigger fast breaks and taps rebounds to
teammates for dunks. And he does all of this with an ease and instinct a la
Webber that can't be taught in a locker room or found in a textbook.
虽然他缺少CW的长度和爆发力,他还必须减掉一些重量,努力去争抢篮板,然後小心护球
。他可以传出no-look pass和一个弹地的球给队友灌篮。而且他做得很轻松,很像CW的风
格,那是没有办法教的。
"He's very versatile," said Kings coach Paul Westphal, "and he has footwork
beyond his years. (Friday) what I told him after the game was that if he
would just bend his knees a little bit more, some of those plays that he
almost made, he'll make."
「他多才多艺,而且他有超乎他年龄的脚步。礼拜五比赛後我有跟他说,如果他能够将他
的膝盖更弯一点,那些几乎要完成的PLAY他都可以做得到」西佛说
As for that chippiness that straddles the edge of volatility? Westphal
coached Charles Barkley. Cousins is a lesser slice of the same round, robust
piece; time will tell if he's as lovable a load.
会因为表现不好而暴躁吗?西佛教过Barkley。表弟是缩小版;时间会说明是否他也这麽让
人喜欢。
He chomps on his mouthpiece while protesting fouls. He banters with opponents
when standing on the free-throw line. He grins and grouses and is visibly
engaged in virtually every possession. And when he fails to perform to
expectations? His own expectations? Sactown will read and hear all about it.
他在抗议哨音时会咬牙套,当站上罚球线时会和对手说垃圾话。在每次来回他会笑或者抱
怨。而当他表现不如预期呢?Sactown都可以读到和听到。
"I had a poor effort (Friday)," said a visibly disgusted Cousins, the summer
league's leading rebounder. "That's basically what it was. A poor effort. I
came out sluggish, and it showed."
「我打得很烂,就这样。不好的表现,无精打采」表弟说。
It didn't seem to hurt his emerging popularity, however. The kid draws a
crowd. After the game, he spent 25 minutes on the concourse of Cox Pavilion,
signing basketballs, posters, rosters, T-shirts and baseball caps. The line
stretched to 150 or so, featuring mostly youngsters. His mother, Monique,
stood with the Maloofs and other Kings officials, watching from a distance.
然而这似乎不会伤害他的受欢迎程度。这孩子吸引许多观众。在比赛後,他花了25分钟在
场边签名,包括篮球、海报、轮替名单、T恤和棒球帽。队伍绵延150人以上,大部分都是
年轻人。他的妈妈和马老板和其他国王管理阶层站在一起,在远方看着。
Let's not get ahead of ourselves here, but as long as the adults keep a close
watch, Cousins will be fine. He can play. Geez, he can really play.
我们不要在这边把话说的太早,但只要大人们持续看着,他会表现地很好。他很能打,
真的,他真的很能打。
