http://tinyurl.com/3t85t4l NBA's Most Cost-Efficient SFs PG篇：http://tinyurl.com/3ht7x23 #1EKSo__l (NBAGM) SG篇：http://tinyurl.com/3w8z7dz #1ELrB6Tr (NBAGM) There is always much debate in professional sports about which players are overpaid or underpaid, which ones are the most efficient on the floor, and which ones are simply the most productive. But what about a marriage of all of those? Which NBA players are the most cost-efficient? This is the third piece in a series looking at the starters at all five positions (check out the point guards and shooting guards), one at a time, in an attempt to determine which players are the most cost-efficient players taking into account their production and salary. The assumption is there should be a general correlation between a player’s production – and for this purpose we will use John Hollinger’s Player Efficiency Rating – and his salary. Will that hold true? Take a look at the list of starting small forwards below, with their 2010-11 salary and PER, plus a final column dividing their salary by PER to give a simple dollar amount of how much each point of PER cost their team. （译注：这三段都跟之前差不多。） Team Player Salary PER S/E AVERAGE $7,359,435 14.0 $525,674 HOU Chase Budinger $780,871 14.2 $54,991 CHA Dante Cunningham $762,195 13.1 $58,183 MEM Sam Young $886,000 12.6 $70,317 SAC Donte' Greene $1,116,840 9.7 $115,138 TOR James Johnson $1,713,600 12.6 $136,000 DEN Wilson Chandler $2,130,482 11.7 $182,092 PHO Grant Hill $3,240,000 14.8 $218,919 GS Dorrell Wright $3,540,000 15.1 $234,437 OKC Kevin Durant $6,053,663 23.7 $255,429 MIL Carlos Delfino $3,500,000 13.1 $267,176 WAS Mo Evans $2,500,000 9.1 $274,725 MIN Michael Beasley $4,962,240 15.5 $320,145 DAL Shawn Marion $7,055,500 17.1 $412,602 LAC Ryan Gomes $4,000,000 9.0 $444,444 MIA LeBron James $14,500,000 27.3 $531,136 ATL Marvin Williams $7,262,500 13.5 $537,963 NOH Trevor Ariza $6,322,320 11.4 $554,589 LAL Ron Artest $6,322,320 11.3 $559,497 IND Danny Granger $10,973,202 17.9 $613,028 POR Gerald Wallace $10,500,000 16.3 $644,172 SAS Richard Jefferson $8,400,000 12.4 $677,419 BOS Paul Pierce $13,876,321 19.8 $700,824 PHI Andre Iguodala $12,345,250 17.3 $713,598 CHI Luol Deng $11,345,000 15.6 $727,244 DET Tayshaun Prince $11,147,760 15.1 $738,262 NYK Carmelo Anthony $17,149,243 22.9 $748,875 ORL Hedo Turkoglu $10,215,850 13.5 $756,730 CLE Antawn Jamison $13,358,905 16.9 $790,468 NJN Travis Outlaw $7,000,000 8.8 $795,455 UTA Andrei Kirilenko $17,823,000 16.7 $1,067,246 TOTAL $220,783,062 By now the theme of these pieces is probably pretty apparent; players on rookie contracts are going to be the most cost effective. The top six names in this table would lead you to believe small forwards would be no different, but then four of the next five names (Grant Hill, Dorrell Wright, Carlos Delfino and Mo Evans) are veteran players. 相信看过前两篇的人都应该觉得拿新秀约的总是排在前面。本排行榜前六位球员确实都是拿 新秀约，但接下来5个名字里面的4个(Grant Hill、Dorrell Wright、Carlos Delfino、Mo Evans)可都是老鸟喔。 In fact, just eight of the 30 players in this table are on rookie contracts; the point guard and shooting guard lists had 11 each. 事实上，这次的30名先发小前锋排行榜里，只有8个新秀约球员，控球跟得分後卫则各有11 个球员拿新秀约。 Then there is the issue of PER. As noted, the average PER is set at 15.0. Check out the average PER of the league’s starting small forwards: 14.0. Just two of the rookie contract players – Kevin Durant and Michael Beasley – posted higher than average PERs at 23.7 and 15.5. In fact, just 14 of the players on this list posted a PER of over 15.0 (better than only the shooting guards, but not by much) despite the fact the average player on this list made $7.4 million last season – higher than any group of starters except the power forwards. 接下来让我们来看看PER的问题。先提醒你一下：average PER值是15.0。看看联盟先发小前 锋平均PER值：14.0。只有两个拿新秀约的球员PER值高於15—KD与Beasley(23.7/15.5)。事 实上，只有14个先发小前锋的PER值大於15.0(比先发得分後卫好，但也没好到哪去)，但先 发小前锋的平均薪水竟然是第二高的$7.4M(仅次於先发大前锋)。 The least cost-effective player according to the numbers was Utah’s Andrei Kirilenko at about $1.1 million per point of PER (say that ten times fast). But, he also posted a PER of 16.8. Is he really the least cost effective if he was still productive? That award has to go to New Jersey’s Travis Outlaw who, despite a $7.0 million salary – just under average for starting small forwards – posted a PER of only 8.8. Whereas Kirilenko – and Cleveland’s Antawn Jamison on the other side of Outlaw – weren’t as cost-efficient, they were at least productive NBA players. Outlaw didn’t produce. 本排行榜垫底的球员是Andrei Kirilenko，他薪水跟PER值比：$1.1M:1～但别忘了，他的 PER值还是有16.8，还不算是没贡献。真正的薪水小偷应该是篮网队的Travis Outlaw。他一 年赚$7M，但PER值只有8.8。看看AK跟Antawn Jamison，他们虽然薪水有点高，好歹他们也 有些贡献。Outlaw可什麽都没有。 Which players were the best combination of salary and production? It’s impossible not to focus solely on Miami’s LeBron James here. Despite being the third-highest paid player on this list at $14.5 million (only behind Kirilenko’ s $17.8 million and the New York Knicks’ Carmelo Anthony’s $17.1 million), he ranked smack in the middle here at 15th. How? Because James’ 27.3 PER not only led his position but was the highest of any NBA player (Miami, incidentally, with Wade’s 25.7 had two of the top three NBA players with that stat, sandwiched around Orlando’s Dwight Howard). Say what you will about James’, but he also became one of the best bargains in professional sports when he took less money from Miami last summer. 那麽谁拿薪水拿得最心安理得呢？LBJ肯定是候选人之一。虽然他的薪水是先发小前锋里第 三高($14.5M，只输给AK的$17.8M与Melo的$17.1M)，但他还可以在S/E榜里冲到第15名。原 因？因为LBJ的PER值高达27.3，不仅是小前锋里的第一名，也是全NBA第一(Wade的25.7是第 三，第二则是Dwight Howard)。不管你对LBJ有什麽看法，他去年夏天跟热火签下的合约真 的是职业运动中最划算的合约之一。 All in all, most teams shouldn’t be overly thrilled with their starters at the three at all for the 2010-11 season, just like the shooting guards. Well, unless that team is Miami, New York, Boston or Oklahoma City. Beyond that group only a few teams really got their money’s worth and a few others really should be looking elsewhere for a starter. 总归一句，大部分的队伍都不会对自己今年的先发小前锋感到兴奋，跟得分後卫差不多—除 了热火、尼克、C's与雷霆以外。只有少数的队伍给了他们的先发小前锋合理的价钱，而某 些队伍该开始寻找下一个先发小前锋了。 -- 哲学的义务，是去除因误解而生的幻想。 --
