Notes from Day Five of Knicks Training Camp By Seth on Oct 6, 4:51p http://tinyurl.com/8o3n3tb Summary: And on the fifth day, Mike Woodson began installing his offense. Good day, companions. I'm back from what was a short, quiet practice and have a few notes and quotes and photes for y'all: - Marcus Camby missed practice today and will be sidelined for 7-10 days because of a strained left calf. He was out yesterday with just a "sore" calf, but I guess MRI results convinced everyone that he needed to sit for a few days. Amar'e Stoudemire and Chris Smith didn't practice either, but their ills (knee and ankle, respectively) were described only as soreness. - We saw just the last few minutes of today's scrimmages. Raymond Felton, James White, Carmelo Anthony, John Shurna, and Tyson Chandler were in blue (Oscar Bellfield subbed in for Felton a bit while we were watching) while Pablo Prigioni, Jason Kidd, J.R. Smith, Mychel Thompson, and Chris Copeland were in white (Kidd was playing off the ball). - I saw: 1. Copeland catch and drill a three up top. 2. Melo really bust his ass defending J.R. 3. Kidd strip Chandler at the top of the key to start a fast break the other way. 4. A Felton-Melo pick-and-roll lead to a pinched defense and a wide open three-point make for Shurna. 5. A nice runner by Felton. - On that note, only one trend from the last few days of scrimmages really stands out to me, and it's the number of times Melo has been the roll man in the pick-and-roll. He hardly did that last year (22 total times, according to Synergy), but I feel like I've seen him set quite a few picks for Felton during practice. - Rasheed Wallace practiced and spent the time we were in the gym doing balance exercises while being filmed by a member of the staff (I imagine they collect data like that for all the players and use it to track the progress of training and injury recovery and whatnot. They've got a lot of gadgets. It's pretty cool). He didn't scrimmage, and Mike Woodson told us he's still working Sheed up to being conditioned enough for five-on-five. Basically, with tomorrow likely being my last day at camp, I don't think I'm gonna get to see Sheed scrimmage. It's a damn shame. - Ya know, I stuck my recorder in Woodson's face with the rest of the reporters. I might as well transcribe a couple things. Today was apparently the first day of teaching offensive sets: "We had a nice skull session today offensively. It was the first time we really talked offense. Everything has been pretty much defense. The scrimmage, I thought, went extremely well. We play 18 minutes a scrimmage and there was 35 points put up on the board, so that shows they picked the offense up right away which is kind of nice." When asked about Marcus Camby's injury history: "Years ago, Marcus was playing 30 minutes a game. I'm not looking for Marcus to play 30 minutes a game anymore. So if we can just keep him healthy enough to give us some productive minutes...that's going to be a plus for our ball club." - I realized while watching Dave Hopla work with guys (White and Kidd today, from what I saw) that I've yet to see him attempt a shot. - I've told y'all about Steve Novak's daily post-practice routine-- basically, he finds a willing teammate and the two of them trade off shooting threes from each of five spots around the arc while the other one rebounds (and they keep count of how many they've made). Three things about today's episode of the Novak drill: 1. Melo (who's usually his partner) had to leave the floor, so Novak convinced Prigioni to join him. 2. Sheed wandered over like he was going to participate in the drill, but just waited until a rebound came his way, threw down a violent tomahawk, then walked off saying "that's all I needed to do". Oh, and his jersey was on backward, of course. 3. Novak often doesn't miss at all in these drills, but he missed three times during one go-around and, on the third miss, got frustrated with himself and drop-kicked the ball toward the ceiling. It landed pretty close to our little media huddle, and Steve apologized profusely. - Some photos: http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/1505515/IMG-20121006-00677.jpg Iman Shumpert working with Dave Hopla http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/1505549/IMG-20121006-00679.jpg Sheed balancin' http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/1505581/IMG-20121006-00680.jpg Post-scrimmage huddle http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/1505621/IMG-20121006-00686.jpg Novak rebounding for Prigioni http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/1505853/IMG-20121006-00692.jpg Tyson Chandler rebounding for Henry Sims.

Stoudemire is dealing with a sore left ankle and Camby will miss approximately 7-10 days due to a strained left calf. “These are injuries that creep up in camp, we just have to make sure we stay on top of it and have them ready to play,” head coach Mike Woodson stated. New-Look Backcourt (全新的後卫群) There is an interesting dynamic taking place in the backcourt as Raymond Felton and Jason Kidd are beginning to develop chemistry during the early portion of camp. Felton has stated several times that he is ultra motivated to improve on last year’s production in Portland. The former New York point guard also explained the amount of respect he holds for the future Hall of Famer. “He’s been talking to me everyday and staying in my ear, helping me out tremendously,” Felton said. “He’s been great. He is a big role model of mine, I watched him when I was in high school and when he was in the NBA. So, just the opportunity to play with him and pick his brain, it’s a plus for me. ” Kidd shared his thoughts on teaming with Felton as well, “I think Raymond has been great. He is a guy that puts a lot of pressure on the defense and on defense he causes havoc by getting in the passing lanes. I’ve been pushing him and he’s been pushing me and we’ve been helping each other. I want the game to be easy for him and he’s playing at a high level right now.” 基德也对肥顿赞赏有加：“肥顿一直打的很出色。他防守有压迫性，他会挡住传球路线破 坏进攻。我一直推动他，他也一直推动着我，我们相互帮助。我想让比赛变得对他简单容 易，他现在一直表现出高水平。” While watching some of the training camp sessions, it’s evident that Kidd and Felton understand the pace of the game. Some young players rush into bad decisions in order to keep up with the elite athletes at this level. These two veteran guards own a strong intuition of when to slam on the pedal or pump the brakes to allow a play to develop. “The speed of the game is big because you have to wait for your big men but you also want to make sure you get a good shot every time down,” Kidd articulated. The Schedule (计画) Next Thursday is the first preseason tilt for the Knicks. With nine days to prepare for its first game action against an opponent, New York will have plenty of time to work on conditioning, implement offensive and defensive sets, and build relationships inside the locker room. Kidd described the process for the players during camp, “Guys get here early to get our weights in or some treatment and then we are on the court from 11 to almost 2. A lot of drills but right now we are getting into the 5-on-5 stuff where we are breaking things down and talking defensively and offensively." 翻译就...QQ -- ─∥ ─── ◣ =◥"◥’． ∵ ◆∥ ψsherry821224 ────────────── ∥ ◤ ◥ ◤ ◥ ∥ ◤ ◢◤\ ◣◥ Teammates don't ∥ ╱ ∥◤￣◣ ﹍◣∥◤￣╲∥ ╱∥◤￣╲ ▼‵､λ﹀▼▼ play with each ∥◆◇ ∥ ∥∥◣∥ ∥╱ ∥◣＿ ─-.╳ ︶- other, they play ∥ ╲ ∥ ∥∥ ∥ ∥ ╲ ◥∥▲ ρ\ `, ▲▲ FOR each other. ─∥ ╲ ∥ ∥∥ ∥◣＿╱∥ ╲╲＿◢∥ ◥ | ◢────────…‥． --
