JVG likes Knicks' improvements on D By Jared Zwerling | ESPNNewYork.com Mike Woodson and Jeff Van Gundy share two main things in common. First of all, they both took over the Knicks during mid-season and then became the head coach the following season. Secondly, they're both defensive-minded coaches. Now, as Woodson is about to embark on his first full season with the Knicks, Van Gundy, who currently serves as an ESPN NBA analyst, provided his thoughts on the new head coach and the team to ESPNNewYork.com. Van Gundy also reflected on the defensive makeup of his Knicks teams. 杰夫-范甘迪和尼克现任教练伍德森之间共同点蛮多的，他们两个都是防守型教练，而且 都是在赛季中接手尼克，然後在随後的赛季成为球队主帅。近日，范甘迪接受了ESPN采访 ，从防守话题上谈了他对现在尼克的一些看法—— Q: What do you think about the Knicks' defensive-focused offseason acquisitions, notably Marcus Camby and Ronnie Brewer? 问：对於休赛期间尼克走防守路线的引援，你怎麽看？比如最明显的是得到了勉族、小酒 。 Van Gundy: I thought they played well defensively, particularly down the stretch last year. It will be interesting with [Raymond] Felton back at the point how they can pressure the ball and also with [Iman] Shumpert out due to injury. Ronnie Brewer gives them length and quickness, and Camby has had a remarkable career and he's an extremely intelligent player overall. Defensively, in combination with [Tyson] Chandler, they will always have shot-blocking and intelligence along the back line. And on occasion, those two guys will play together. I don't think that would be ideal from an offensive standpoint, but certainly in short bursts, they could play together. 范甘迪：我认为他们的防守是很不错的，特别是上赛季的关键时刻。现在有意思的是肥顿 回归後，他们如何对持球方进行压迫，他们的香波还不会那麽快从伤病中复出。小酒可以 给他们带来敏捷性，还有长手长脚的优势，勉族职业生涯就是个出名的防守球员，而且是 一个很聪明的球员，加上拳王，尼克在防守端就有了火锅的威胁。偶尔这些球员可以共同 协作，进攻端的话，我不觉得同在场上是好主意，不过防守端确实可以偶尔共同合作一下 。 Q: What impressed you about Mike Woodson's defensive approach last season after he replaced Mike D'Antoni? 问：在上赛季接替冷笑话後，伍德森在防守方面的哪些举措让你觉得印象深刻？ Van Gundy: I don't want to make this a comparison between Mike and Coach D'Antoni, because whenever you compare people, in my way of thinking, somebody gets diminished, and I don't want to do that. But Mike Woodson has been a very good coach in our league for a very long time, so anybody who's surprised that he did a good job, just wasn't paying attention to the great job he did in Atlanta. He is no-nonsense, and he believes in playing hard and smart. You've got to give he and the best players a lot of credit for their improvement defensively, because teams are never going to defend better than its best players and how much effort they expend defensively. And it will now be interesting over an 82-game season to see if they can regenerate that same enthusiasm level on the defensive end of the floor. 范甘迪：我不想把这个回答当做是对这两个主教练的对比，但伍德森教练在我们这个联盟 里早已经是一个很出色的教练了。所以他当上主帅相信没有人会觉得吃惊，其实平时大家 没有注意到他在老鹰执教时干得有多出色。他是一个很切实际的教练，他相信努力打球和 聪明打球的哲学，你应该感谢他为尼克的防守做了很大提升，特别是对队中最出色球员的 督促，因为没有队中球星的参与，任何球队都是永远不可能在防守方面得到提升的。现在 看点就是一个完整的82轮赛季来临，他们是否能够重新用同样的热情去投入在防守端。 Q: Like Woodson, you took over the Knicks during a season (1995-96, replacing Don Nelson) and then you were the head coach the following one. Looking back on that first full training camp, which is what Woodson has ahead, what were keys for your team jelling defensively? 问：和伍德森一样，你当年也是在季中接手的尼克，然後接下来一年你当了主教练，现在 伍德森也要经历第一个完整的训练营了，回顾一下你自己的经历，当时你是怎麽让球队的 防守凝结起来的？ Van Gundy: Well, you always start over at step one and build your base of habits defensively. You end the season at step, like, 20, but you can't start the next season at step 20. You've got to go back and rebuild the base of your habits. You also have to have that commitment level from your best players that defense is important and it's going to be a critical ingredient to long-term success. It's hard, but we're going to commit to improving in that area every day. I think you can't just leave the grunt, blue-collar work for others. The best players have to commit, and I was fortunate. I didn't have to sell that. They already knew that from their time previously with other coaches, so my job was relatively simple. 范甘迪：嗯，你总是从第一步做起，建立起你的防守小习惯。你必须回到基础的习惯上， 去打造好这些东西，你必须让队中最好的球员对防守达成一个共识，形成一种共同的承诺 ，让他们明确防守是很重要的事情，要取得成功的话就必须这样做。这些事情很困难，但 我们当时全都致力於每天在这方面做出一些改善，我想这是共同的事情，你不可能把这些 工作只交给部分球员去做。队中最出色的球员必须给出承诺保证，我很幸运，我甚至不用 去鼓动他们这麽做，他们已经都从之前的教练那里知道这一重要性了，所以我的工作是很 简单的。 Q: What are your fondest memories of your time with the Knicks, especially about how your guys came together and finally became a championship contender in 1999? 问：你在尼克执教的时候最开心的记忆是什麽？特别是关於1999年那年你们打进了冠军 赛。 Van Gundy: I think we had a great group and team chemistry because Patrick Ewing,Charles Oakley, Larry Johnson, Allan Houston, Latrell Sprewell, Charlie Ward, Chris Childs, all those guys, had great individual pride. But they had even greater team pride, and they believed in the same basic core values of team play, work ethic, accountability, unselfishness. So the great thing about those teams is, even though we didn't win all the time and we lost some tough playoff series in heartbreaking fashion, we rarely beat ourselves. There was an everyday commitment to the success of the group and when you have that as a coach, you're very fortunate and you don't take it for granted, because that's not the way it is with every group of players, and particularly star players. I was so very fortunate to have teams that had one agenda versus multiple agendas. 范甘迪：我想我们当时拥有一支很棒的阵容，而且球队化学反应极出色，因为尤因、奥克 利、约翰逊、休斯顿、斯普雷维尔、沃德、柴尔德斯、所有这些球员，他们都有很强的个 人荣誉感，而且同时他们还拥有更强的团队荣誉感。他们对於团队篮球有一种共识，他们 有极好的训练态度，责任感，无私的精神，所以，这支球队最棒的事情在於，即便我们没 有得到总冠军，即便我们输掉了一些让人心碎的系列赛，我们也并没有被自己打败。这支 球队每天都在为成功而全力以赴，当你作为他们的主教练时，你是幸运的。这也是每支想 成功的球队必须走的路线，特别是队中的球星，一定要拿出想要成功的决心来。 原文来源：http://tinyurl.com/8v8glar 翻译来源：http://sports.163.com/12/0901/13/8AAPOPCF00051CA1.html -- ∥ ◣ =◥"◥’． ∵ ◆∥ ●/ \● ●23︽ SS ∕0S ＜９＞ ∥ Ι﹨◤ ◥ ＿ ◤ ◥ ∥ ８ ◤︽21 ◢◤\ ◣ /●\ ● ● ∥ ●╱ ∥◤●◣ ﹍◣∥◤￣╲∥＜╱∥◤￣╲ ▼‵､λ﹀▼ ﹨● ●\●∥◆◇ ● ∥＜９ ∥∥◣∥ ●/ ∥╱ ∥◣● ─-.╳ ︶- ● 44 ● <２ 17∥ ╲７>∥ ∥∥ ∥ 16 ∥ ╲ <20◥∥▲ ρ\ `, ▲ ∞ <85 ∥ ∥∥ /| ∥ ∥ ∥∥ ∥◣∥╱∥ ╲╲/|◢∥ ◥ | ◢ ∥ ∥ |/ --
