原文:http://www.nytimes.com 12/29 Stoudemire a Star Center Who Isn’t Really a Center ORLANDO, Fla. — Amar’e Stoudemire is not a center, but he plays one on television. Often, and mostly quite well, despite his own protestations. 阿骂不是C，但是他打C打的很好，尽管他嘴巴上说我不想打C。 “I’m not starting at center,” Stoudemire declared in 2004, when he was with the Phoenix Suns. “I’m a power forward.” 2004年时阿骂说我不是中锋，我是个大前锋。 (YI是个大後锋) Upon joining the Knicks, Stoudemire again made his preferences clear. 加入尼克时，阿骂也声明过这一点。 “I’m a natural power forward,” he said in October, before adding, “but if I have to play center for the betterment of the team, I would.” 10月的时候他说我就是一个大前锋，但是如果能够让球对变的更好 我也是愿意打中锋啦~ It is for the betterment of the Knicks that Stoudemire — older, wiser and more mature than in his Phoenix days — has gracefully accepted the assignment, which is looking more permanent all the time. 阿骂比起在凤凰城时更加成熟。 Stoudemire has started 14 straight games at center. The Knicks have gone 10-4 in that time, and Coach Mike D’Antoni is not about to mess with a good thing. So Stoudemire, who tussled with the 7-foot-3-inch Zydrunas Ilgauskas in Miami on Tuesday, will be banging with the 6-11, 275-pound Dwight Howard on Thursday. 阿骂做为中锋先发了14场，而这时尼克的战绩是10-4，这真是爽到教练.. 打这麽好，我不做改变也是人之常情嘛~ 所以呢，阿骂上场对上7-3的大Z，下一场要对上6-11，275磅的DH。 (D'Antoni当教练的原罪，他喜欢一大四小，当然阿骂当那个大的，以他的灵活性 和不错中距离可以把对面的C 吃爽爽，但是防守端就要付出相同的代价) “I just think we’re better this way,” D’Antoni said, “and we’ll deal with it.” 教练:阿骂打中锋很好阿(挖鼻孔)。 The Knicks (18-13) are off to their best start in years and have won 15 of their last 20 games, all with Stoudemire as their primary center. At 6 feet 10 inches and 240 pounds, he is undersize for the role, but brilliantly effective in D’Antoni’s high-octane offense. He is second in the league in scoring, with 26.3 points per game. 尼克打出了近年来最佳的开季，因为把阿骂拉上中锋。 6-10，240磅，他在中锋这个位置上身材吃亏，但是在D'Antoni的进攻体系下 却过得很爽，26.3的场均得分排行联盟第二。 None of this should be surprising, of course: Stoudemire was also quite effective as an undersize center under D’Antoni in Phoenix. But this was not the lineup that the Knicks envisioned when training camp began. 这并不让人意外，以前在太阳队时，阿骂就和D'A这样搭配过了，不过这却和球队 所希望的阵容望有些出入。 D’Antoni hoped that the rookie Timofey Mozgov, who looked promising in the preseason, could handle the job. But Mozgov wilted once the games began, and the Knicks went 3-4 with him as the starter. Ronny Turiaf inherited the role and the Knicks went 5-1. But Turiaf got banged up and his effectiveness waned. 再开季前，教练希望Moz能够胜任这个工作，可是他表现的不好，在他做为先发时 尼克的战绩只有3-4。 所以屠夫被拉上来当先发中锋，尼克的战绩此时为5-1，不过因为屠夫的受伤， 他的能力受到了伤势影响减弱。 (满明显的不论是攻守方面，主要是守) Now Turiaf is a 15-minutes-a-game reserve, and Mozgov is out of the rotation. So it is Stoudemire’s job and Stoudemire’s burden, even if he still resists the label. 现在屠夫每场差不多上15分钟，Moz则掉出了轮替，所以阿骂的负担又加重了。 “The All-Star ballot has me at power forward,” he noted. “But playing center is definitely working for us so far. And whatever creates wins, we’re going to keep it going.” 我在明星赛球票时，位置明明就是大前锋，可是现在我要打中锋，不过能赢球就好。 The benefits and pitfalls are evident. Stoudemire is quicker and more athletic than traditional centers, which makes him especially dangerous in transition. But on defense, size quickly becomes an issue. Ilgauskas had 12 points and 9 rebounds — 5 on offense — in the first quarter Tuesday, mostly by reaching over the Knicks’ heads. 好处和坏处都很明显，阿骂相较於传统中锋，他有更快的速度更好的运动能力 导致在transition时更加有威胁性，但是防守时就是会吃亏，大Z 那天拿下了 12分9篮板，其中有5个进攻篮板，而且很多是从尼克球员头上拿下来的。 (那天大Z只打了14分钟) Howard, the league’s premier center, poses an even greater concern. He is averaging 21 points and 12.9 rebounds and can overpower most defenders with a combination of brawn and athleticism. He is surrounded by capable shooters, which makes double-teaming problematic. 魔兽，联盟中最佳的中锋，场均21分12.9篮板，他的能力可以征服防守者， 而且他身边有一堆射手，这使得想要包夹他变得更加困难。 (其实，放阿骂去守魔兽被吃就算了，不要有犯规麻烦就好，一个内线老实讲 我们应付的过去，重点在於对面的PF的威胁怎麽样，魔术交易过後好像用的 是Bass和Anderson当PF这两个人..是在交易後才比较有机会的，我对他们在 PF上的能力并不太了解。而魔术跟尼克有着相同的问题，内线只有一个大个 子，那个大个子打得很辛苦。) “He’s definitely a physical specimen down there in the post,” Stoudemire said. “He’s a great defensive player. Offensively, he’sa little limited, so we’re going to use that to our advantage.” 阿骂:DH的低位很威，防守也很威，不过他也有一些弱点 (这样翻OK吗?) Stoudemire was hinting at Howard’s shooting range, which, despite some improvement, remains mostly limited to the area around the basket. 阿骂在暗示DH的投篮虽然有进步但是还是不太行。 (这季的魔兽很恐怖..进攻的脚步很好，之後还有中距离擦板..) The concern for the Knicks is foul trouble. They are wholly dependent on Stoudemire, who is averaging a career-high 37.9 minutes per game, and cannot beat an elite team without him. 尼克关心的是犯规麻烦的问题，尼克依赖阿骂，没了他无法对抗优秀的球队， 阿骂本季上场时间是新涯新高37.9分钟。 Stoudemire has fouled out just once this season (in a Nov. 4 victory over Chicago), and has accumulated at least five fouls on nine occasions. 阿骂本季有一次6犯毕业，11/4对公牛，之後有9次的5犯。 (本季对公牛两场我们都赢，11/4是第一场，翻了一下box..超惨的，阿骂5-21.. 2成4的命中率，罚球4-5，8篮板，3助攻，1抄截，2火锅，8失误，6犯，14分 不过那场TD拿了30分，三分球全队16-24) “We’re not going to speak about foul trouble,” Stoudemire said Wednesday, while discussing Howard. “Hopefully, that doesn’t happen. But I think the most important factor is to try to keep him off the boards, try to keep him from getting easy baskets. It’s never easy.” 阿骂:先别讨论犯规麻烦，希望他不会发生，最重要的是让魔兽远离篮框， 别有轻松得分的机会。 虽然这不容易。 D’Antoni said foul trouble was a concern, but added, “I’m sure they have the same concerns of Dwight starting on Amar’e.” 小胡子表示:犯规麻烦是一个问题，但是魔兽对上阿骂他们也会遇到这个问题。 (看谁先把对方打下去吗= =?) If Stoudemire falters, Turiaf will get the call. Asked who would be next, D’Antoni paused a few seconds before saying, “Timmy,” referring to Mozgov, who has barely played in the last month. 如果阿骂被打下去，下一个就换屠夫，那再下一个呢? 小胡子犹豫了几秒钟，指了指旁边那个大个子，Timmy，他最近一个月的上场时间 少的可怜。 Orlando (20-12) just underwent a dramatic overhaul, acquiring Gilbert Arenas, Jason Richardson and Hedo Turkoglu in a pair of trades on Dec. 18. Orlando, which had been struggling, has now won four straight games, including victories over San Antonio and Boston, the two conference leaders. 魔术目前战绩20-12，在经过那次大交易後，他们状况不错，还赢了马刺和超赛， 这两个联盟中的领先者。 (这场对战满重要的，尼克，公牛，老鹰，魔术，这几支球队竞争激烈，而且都很 有可能成为季後赛的对手，不论在战绩考量上，或者是季後赛的准备上，值得一看) This will be the Knicks’ first game at Orlando’s new (very large) Amway Center, and their first time facing the Magic this season. Their first scheduled meeting, on Nov. 2, was postponed because of asbestos concerns at Madison Square Garden. 这是本季尼克队魔术的第一场比赛，本来应该在11/02是第一场的，不过因为麦迪逊花园 因为整修出了点问题，而延後了。 D’Antoni said he was impressed with the Magic’s new lineup and its array of 3-point shooters. He tried to play down the concerns about Howard. 小胡子对魔术新阵容的三分射手印象深刻。 他试图不要把焦点放在魔兽身上。 “Size isn’t everything, you know that,” he said wryly. 小胡子揶揄道:Size isn’t everything, you know that. (....) In truth, the Knicks would happily acquire a skilled, muscle-bound 7-footer to play next to Stoudemire. But those players are difficult to obtain, and D’Antoni seems perfectly comfortable with his smallish lineup. After all, his undersized Suns teams averaged 58 wins over four seasons. 其实尼克也希望有一个技巧型，肌肉棒子七尺长人辅助阿骂，但是联盟中 好的肉棒很珍贵稀少，而且小胡子看起来很喜欢他的小个子阵容。 毕竟，他的小个子太阳队四季下来平均有58胜.. (就靠这一点说嘴，但是我们也说不过他..) “I’m a little slow at changing what we do,” D’Antoni said. “I fully believe what we do is going to work over the long haul, and we’ll stick with it.” 这段不太会翻，谁来帮我一下。 我改变的有点慢，我相信我们可以持续下去。 --
