标题[外电] Tyreke Evans and Paul Westphal on Sacramento's Future
时间Fri Sep 3 00:34:21 2010
http://0rz.tw/MB0wN
It's not that the Kings have already forgotten about reigning Rookie of the
Year Tyreke Evans. He's still considered the franchise's centerpiece talent
and their ticket back to the NBA's top tier.
并不是国王忘了他们拥有超强新人王reke。他仍然被认为是核心而且还是他们回到强队
之林重要的人。
But he'll never be a rookie again, meaning it's only natural that they move
on to someone who will be when it comes to campaigning for that particular
award. That role has already been assigned to DeMarcus Cousins, the big man
from Kentucky who was taken fifth overall by the Kings in the June draft.
但他不再是菜鸟了,代表着他们只能去找下一个能够争夺这个特殊奖项的人。这角色交
给了DMC,国王在第五顺位选了他。
This picture shows the movement in action, with Cousins donning a clever
'ROY-DMC' t-shirt that's a spinoff of Evans' REKE-ROY apparel from last
season. There are even bigger pictures hanging from Arco Arena, where
35-by-118 feet banners showcase Evans and Cousins in a similarly
not-so-subtle fashion.
这图(http://0rz.tw/Sq99B )显示了移转正在进行,表弟穿着'ROY-DMC'的T恤,从去年
reke的'REKE-ROY'延续下来。Arco挂着更大的图。
But in the only big picture that matters, the Kings -- who have won just 17
and 25 games in the last two seasons, respectively -- are finally feeling as
if they have a young core worth bragging about. Cousins, Carl Landry, Jason
Thompson and second-round draft pick Hassan Whiteside (Marshall) join
newly-acquired veteran Samuel Dalembert down low. Third-year Donte' Greene
will again battle second-year Omri Casspi for the starting spot at small
forward, with free agent signee veteran Antoine Wright, fellow vet Francisco
Garcia and perhaps a couple of surprise candidates (more on that from Kings
coach Paul Westphal later) pushing for the job, as well.
国王现在感觉他们拥有年轻的核心可以自夸,表弟、洗衣店、小汤、白边和山米。绿绿和
卡卡争夺先发小前锋,还有Wright、Cisco,说不定还有意想不到的人来抢这位子。
And while Evans mostly teamed up with veteran guard Beno Udrih in the
backcourt last season, Westphal will surely take looks at Garcia playing
alongside him, as well as new point guard Pooh Jeter. With the focus of our
Evans feature published today on the saga of his jump shot, we take a peek at
the Kings as a whole through the eyes of two of their most important members.
Both interviews took place in mid-August.
当去年大部分的时间reke都是和Beno一起组成後场,西佛也会想要让Cisco和他搭配,新
来的扑也是。我们访问了两位国王最重要的成员。
Tyreke Evans
On the team in its updated state ...
关於球队目前变动後的状态。
"We've got a good draft pick this year, two of them that can help us. ...
We've got Hassan who can block shots, and DeMarcus is just another big body
for us to get big rebounds and set good screens. He's a big guy, and with the
types of screens that he's going to put on people, they're going to get stuck
and that's going to give me a lot of opportunity to get free baskets or get
other guys open shots.
「我们今年有好的选秀,他们两个会对我们有所帮助,白边能够盖锅,表弟是另一个大个
,他能够抢夺很多篮板和好的单挡。他是个巨汉,他的单档能够给我很多空档或其他人空
档」
On the intentionally-slow start to his summer, as he took a month off after
the season ended in mid-April ...
关於暑假刻意较晚开始,从四月中已经休息一个月。
"I took the most time off ever. After the season was over, I took a month
off. It was hard, because the season was still going and the playoffs. And
after the game would end, I would want to go and work out but I was like,
'Nah, chill, you played hard this year. Eighty-two games, it's tough. Get
some rest.'
「我大部分的时间都在休息。在球季结束後,我休息了一个月。这很难受,因为球季仍然
在进行着季後赛。在比赛结束後,我会想要去训练,但会有小天使说'冷静点,你今年打得
很努力,82场比赛,这很累人的。休息吧'」
Evans working out with trainer Rob McClanaghan
reke和训练员Rob McClanaghan一起训练。
"I was home (in Pennsylvania), back and forth between home, Sacramento and
LA. I haven't really got a vacation like that (before). Now I'm conditioning,
shooting consistently, running on a treadmill, getting in that game shape
before I go to LA Thursday to work with (trainer Rob McClanaghan).
「我那时候在家(宾州),在家、沙城和LA往返。我还没有真的像那样放个假,现在我正在
调整,稳定地投篮,跑跑步机,在到LA和训练员训练前回到比赛的状态。」
"It's me, (Chicago's Derrick) Rose, (Memphis') OJ (Mayo), working with him
(at different points during the year). (Oklahoma City's Kevin) Durant,
(Russell) Westbrook. He's a great guy to work with. I'll be in LA for two
weeks, then come back to Sac, work out more, then I've got to come home.
「有我、Rose、没有一起跟着他训练。杜兰和西河也跟着他训练。他是个很棒的训练员,
我将会在LA待两个礼拜,然後回到沙城,做更多的训练,然後我就必须回家」
On how much better he expects the Kings to be ...
关於他认为国王会好多少
"I don' t know for sure, but for me seeing (Cousins) two days before (the
team) left for summer league -- when I was in there working with him --
that's good. I know he's a hard worker. ... We're just going to worry about
basketball and winning -- me, him, Hassan, and the rest of the team have a
chance to be like the Thunder, an up and coming team. We've just got to come
together, play together, not worrying about scoring and just play as a team
and I think we can make the playoffs. That's the goal. It has to start in
training camp, though. We've got to come together, practice hard, play hard,
and the games you have to do the same thing.
「我不是很确定,但对我而言在球队前往夏季联盟前看表弟两天下来,当我和他一起训练
时,那很棒。我知道他是个很努力的人,我们只担心篮球和赢球,我、他、白边和其他的
人都有机会成为雷霆,一个正在往上冲的球队。我们必须团结,不担心得分,像一支球队
,这样子我想我们就能够进季後赛。这是目标,从训练营就必须开始。我们必须团结,很
认真地练习,很认真地打球,比赛时也必须做同样的事」
On his added weight, his recent affinity for lifting weights after never
doing so before and how he plans to use the extra bulk ...
关於他增重,最近很喜欢举重,以前从未这麽做,他是怎麽计划利用额外的体积。
"I'm 228 (pounds) now, and I was 220 when I was playing (last season). I like
the size. It's nice for me to bully the guards around. I did it last year,
but it's going to be even worse this year. I'll just have fun with it. (Now)
I know how to do it. I'm used to it.
「我现在228磅,一季我220。我喜欢这个SIZE,让我好去欺负後卫。我去年就这麽做,
但今年会更糟。这将会有很趣,我知道怎麽去做,很习惯这样子」
"I've been lifting weights, getting stronger. I've never been a weights guy.
As you seen in my high school tapes, I was skinny. I've got natural strength,
so I just did pushups and situps. I didn't really like the weights too much."
「我一直在举重,变得更壮。我从来都不是很重的人。如你所见我高中的录影带,我很瘦
。我有天生的优势,所以过去只做伏地挺身和仰卧起坐。我不是很喜欢那样子的体重」
Paul Westphal
On what he hopes to see from Evans in Year No. 2 ...
他希望reke的第二年有什麽表现。
"Certainly Tyreke is going to come back with an improved shot. We've already
seen that it's improving. ... (But) I don't want that to be all anyone talks
about with him, because he's such a dominant player at such a young age and
he's only going to get better. That's all I'm looking for him to do is keep
being a versatile all around player and keep improving in all aspects of his
game. I think that's what he wants to.
「reke正在改进他的投射。我们已经看到他正在进步。但我不想去谈论他,因为他这麽
年轻就是个有统治力的球员,他只会越来越好。我所期待的就是持续做一个全方位的球
员还有全面地进步,我想那也是他想要的」
"That's one of the things I like about him is he's not a specialist. He's an
all around player who comes out there to win. And the more experience he
gets, the better the players are around him, the more the team settles into a
consistency, the more we'll see him be who I think he can be in this league
-- which is somebody who can help you win games in a whole lot of different
ways.
「那也是我喜欢他的其中一个原因,就是他不是某项的专家。他是个全方位的球员,就是
来赢球的。他得到越多经验,有越好的球员在他身边,球队越稳定,我们就能看到他成为
那个能够用任何方式帮你赢得比赛的球员」
"He's just getting started, and there are going to be some mistakes along the
way, some times when he tries things and it either works and he adds it to
his game or it doesn't work and he pulls back in that area. That's just a
natural progression of a basketball player. He's starting so far ahead in his
game, but his journey is just beginning. The thing I like most about him
besides his talent is his willingness to admit if he made a mistake and to
work on the things he needs to work on and really strive to be an all around
player rather than say, a scorer. I see his career as some games he'll have a
big scoring game and the next game he may not need to score much. That
doesn't really bother him, because he's helping his team win. That's a big
strength of his game that I think will come out over the course of his
career."
「他才刚起步,会犯些错,有时候当他在尝试时,也许有用,他就会加进去他的比赛。如
果没用就会不用。这是一个篮球员正常的进步程序,他的生涯才刚开始。我最喜欢他的除
了他的天分外就是如果他犯错了他愿意承认,然後就去加强他必须加强的,然後努力成为
全方位球员,而不只是一个得分手。有些比赛他得了很多分,然後下一场或许他不需要得
这麽多分。那并不会困扰着他,因为他正在帮助他的球队赢球。这是他最大的长处。」
On the freedom he gives Evans as a coach and why he chooses that style ...
关於身为教练他给予reke的空间,还有为什麽他选择这麽做。
"I just know that as a player that the coaches that got the most out of me
were the coaches who would live with a mistake every now and then. And as
long as the effort and the will to win is there, which I never see as a
problem with Tyreke, how are you going to expand your game if you don't try
things? And how are you going to work on what you need to work on?
「我只知道身为一名球员,和教练一样都会犯错。只要努力,就会朝向胜利前进,我从未
看到reke有什麽问题,如果你都不去尝试你怎麽变强?你怎麽去加强你该加强的?」
"I just think that it's important that we learn everything we can about what
this kid can do, and the only way you can do that is to encourage him to try
things. I think that if he was somebody who refused to play defense or was
unwilling to pass his ball to his teammates or was someone who was just
trying to go for stats, there would be a problem. But the fact that he is 20
years old and as versatile as he is, I think it's time for him to learn what
works and what doesn't work and I don't see any reason not to encourage him
in those ways."
「我只是认为我们尽我们所能地去了解这孩子能做什麽是很重要的,唯一能做的就是鼓励
他去尝试。我想他如果拒绝防守或不愿意传球给队友,或只是为了自己的统计数字,那就
会是个问题。但事实上他才20岁,而且他很全能,我想这是让他学习什麽有用什麽没用的
时候,我找不到任何理由不去鼓励他」
On his overall expectations for the team ...
关於他对於全队的期待。
"I think this year is the next step in the development of this team. Since I
joined the team, along with (Kings basketball president) Geoff (Petrie) and
the Maloofs (the team's owners), I think we've always looked at the big
picture -- trying to get this team back to being one of the special teams in
the league. Last year was laying the groundwork for that. I think the
groundwork is laid. I think we've added some better talent, some important
pieces that any good team needs. So we've got to build on what we did last
year and everyone needs to go to the next level -- wherever that level may
be. We're not saying, 'Look out Miami, we're knocking off the Lakers and
going to be in the Finals,' but we expect progress off what we built last
year and I think that's reasonable to expect that."
「我想今年是培养这支球队的下一步。自从我加入球队,和Petrie与马兄弟共事,我想
我们总是着重於大局-试着让这支球队成为很特别的球队。去年在在打基础。我想基础已
经打好。今年增加了较好的天份,每队都需要的重要部分。所以我们必须在去年所建好的
基础上前往下一阶段-不管是在哪里。我们不是在说'当心迈阿密,我们要干掉湖人到总冠
军赛'但我们希望能够以去年的基础进步,而我想这是很合理的」
On whether he sees Evans as a leader ...
关於他是否将reke视为领袖
"I think that's a big part of the next level of his development. He has a
built-in respect for other players, and as a rookie -- particularly a rookie
after one year of college -- he was reluctant to tell other people what they
should be doing when he's learning what he should be doing himself and what
the league is all about. Now he has a year under his belt, and the obvious
success he's had, I think it would be natural for him to be a little bit more
out front with his leadership and I'm sure we'll see that."
「我想那是他下一阶段最重要的部分。他已经获得其他人的尊重,而且身为一名菜鸟,尤
其是只打一年大学的菜鸟,他不愿意去告诉其他人说他们什麽该做,他还在学习他自己该
做什麽,还有这联盟是怎麽一回事。现在他有一年经验,他有些成功的事蹟,我想这对他
而言会很自然地有助於他的领袖气质,我确定我们会看到」
On the summertime goings-on of his players ...
关於夏季时球员在做什麽
"All of our players have been working in different venues. (Kings assistant)
Truck (Robinson) is paying a visit on Carl Landry, and going back to work
with DeMarcus. Jason Thompson and Hassan went to (Denver assistant Tim)
Grgurich's camp in Las Vegas, and that was good for them. Pooh Jeter is
working every day. He's mad that they closed the sand dunes in Manhattan
Beach (because) he wanted to run up and down those every day. Our guys are
spread out and working, and the coaches are with them when it's appropriate.
「我们所有的球员都在用不同的方式在训练。卡车正去拜访洗衣店,然後会回去和表弟训
练。小汤和白边去Grgurich的训练营,那对他们会有所帮助。扑每天都在训练,他很生气
他们将沙丘关闭起来,因为他想要每天都去那边跑步。我们的人分散各地,都在训练,而
教练们在适当的时候都会去找他们。」
"I'm just excited for a whole new chapter. I think we've added some things
that we were wishing we had last year. We should be a better rebounding team,
a better shot-blocking team. We've got more veterans on the team, a better
balance. I think we have better balance among the positions. ... I just think
we're heading in the right direction."
「我对於新的一章感到很兴奋。我想我们已经增加了一些去年我们想要的。我们会是更好
的一支篮板队伍,一支更好的火锅球队。我们有更多老将,更平衡。我想我们在每个位置
都更平衡,我们我们正往对的方向前进」
On who will start at the small forward position ...
关於谁会是先发小前锋。
"I wouldn't say there's any clarity at all right now. I think it's a wide
open competition. I don't look at just Omri and Donte' as contenders for that
spot. I think that Antoine Wright and Cisco (Garcia) could play that spot,
and also I want to see if either Jason and or Carl can play a little at that
spot. There's a lot of different ways we can go, and we're going to give them
all an opportunity to make their case there.
「我不会现在做任何的宣布,我想这是公开的竞争。我不会只认为只有卡卡和绿绿在竞争
,Wright和Cisco也在抢夺,而且我也想要看是否小汤或洗衣店也能稍微打一点。有很多
不同的方式可以进行,而我们也会给他们机会去表现」
"There are concerns with any of those scenarios, and you can drive yourself
crazy because all those players bring something different. But we do want to
see what it looks like with those various possibilities. Obviously the idea
is to get the best, most consistent team you can out there. You want to get
your best players on the floor as much as possible."
「你真的会疯掉,因为球员们会带来不同的东西。但我们想要看到的就是这些各式各样的
可能性。显然这个想法会让你有最好、最稳定的球队。你想要尽可能地让你最好的球员在
场上」
On whether it's safe to assume Udrih and Evans will start in the backcourt ...
关於是否假定Beno和reke是先发後场是安全的
"Nothing is ever in stone, but that's the way we're looking at it right now
for sure."
「没有确定任何事,但确定的是这是我们现在所看的」
On whether Dalembert will start at center and if Cousins can play some power
forward ...
关於是否山米会是先发山锋,然後表弟打一些PF
"I would expect Samuel to be the starter. I'm not sure how the other
positions shape up, and even that is subject to change depending on what
things look like once we get out on the court. But the way it looks to me he
would have to lose that spot, and I don't expect that to happen.
「我会预期山米是先发。我不确定其他的位置会怎样,要看场上的变化。但我不认为那会
发生」
"I don't think (Cousins) is necessarily a four (power forward) defensively.
For example, if we played Sam and DeMarcus together, I think Sam would
probably guard the fours. But offensively there's no question he can play
four and five. DeMarcus is a very versatile offensive player. He can move
between inside and outside I think real easily."
「我不认为表弟在防守上一定是个4号,举例来说,如果我们让山米和表弟一起上场,我想
山米可能会守四号。但进攻上毫无疑问他能够打4和5号。表弟是个多才多艺的进攻球员,
他能够在里外游移,我想那很简单」
On the hiring of Cousins' high school coach, Otis Hughley, as an assistant
and how that should be perceived ...
关於雇用表弟的高中教练。
"We weren't even necessarily going to fill Bryan's spot, other than to move
some other assignments around (former Kings assistant Bryan Gates took an
assistant job with New Orleans in late June). When we got to know Otis, we
were really impressed with how much he cares about the kids. He's worked with
young kids, and we've got several young guys on the team who I think Otis can
really be good for them -- on the court and off the court. He's an
experienced, impressive guy, who I think we're very fortunate to have.
「我们不是很需要去填Bryan的空缺。当我们知道Otis时,我们对他有多在意孩子们印象
深刻,他和年轻孩子一起训练,我们球队上有很多年轻球员,我想Otis对他们会有所帮助
,场上场下都是。他是有经验,令人印象深刻的人,我认为我们很幸运能够拥有他」
"I'm not sure if having Otis on staff will change much in regards to
DeMarcus. ... Otis is really on the staff for a lot more reasons than
DeMarcus. It's just that we got to know him through DeMarcus and were
impressed. It's not like if you want to talk to DeMarcus you talk to Otis.
It's not anywhere near like that, so I don't really think of him in regards
to DeMarcus as much as him being really good at working with young players
and we have several right now I think he can help with. I think that if you
spend 10 minutes with Otis, you learn about his passion for the game --
working with the players on and off the floor. He's gifted that way, and I
think he's an addition to any staff."
「我不确定是否有Otis会对表弟有多少改变。Otis在队上不只是因为表弟,而是我们透
过表弟认识他,而对他印象深刻。并不像是你必须透过他才能和表弟沟通。所以我并不
将他和表弟联想在一起,他对年轻球员的训练上很有帮助,而我们队上现在有很多,所
以他能够帮得上忙。我想如果你花十分钟和Otis相处,你就能够得知他对於比赛的热情
,在场上场下和球员在一起训练。他在那方面很有天赋,而我认为他对任何教练团都是
加分」
