Mr. Big Stuff: Nuggets' Camby dominating on defense 长人典范：坎比主宰金块队的防守。 http://tinyurl.com/3xdgko By Chris Dempsey Denver Post Staff Writer Article Launched: 04/18/2007 01:00:00 AM MDT The way it usually happens is a 7-footer's exercise in stealth. Nuggets center Marcus Camby rarely gets the challenge straight up, so he roams. 我们可以常常看到一位七尺长人埋伏篮下，伺机而动。很少有人勇於直接挑战他， 所以金块队中锋Marcus Camby选择等待时机。 And players swooping in for layups, turning in for jumpers and slashing for floaters all get rejected. 敌方球员切入急袭；不管是选择急停跳投，或是想当飞人，只能看着球被煽回禁 区外。 Repeatedly. 而且屡试不爽。 "He's my lifeline," Nuggets guard Steve Blake said. "He's the best guy I've played with that has your back on defense." 金块後卫Steve Blake：「他是我的救命线，他是我遇过在防守方最能够让你安心 的球员。」 On this Nuggets team, Camby is everyone's lifeline. He is the last line of defense on a team that so often has needed it. He leads the NBA in blocked shots and is among the league leaders in rebounding. 在防守不佳的金块队，Camby是每位球员的救命线。他是这支球队防守端最後一 道防线，也常常是队友依赖的对象；现今NBA火锅王，也是篮板好手之一。 But his finish has awed observers 但是他球季尾声的表现，更让专家们吃惊。 In April, Camby has averaged 11.2 points, 13.7 rebounds and 4.8 blocked shots, making him a strong candidate for the NBA's defensive player of the year award. During the month (nine games) he has posted five or more blocked shots four times, including at least seven in three consecutive games from April 9-13. 四月份平均数据11.2分、13.7个篮板球、4.8颗火锅，Camby这样的表现让他角逐 今年年度最佳防守球员的竞争力大大提升。本月九场比赛，Camby有四场煽五个 火锅以上；四月九日到十三日的连续三场比赛，他更是每场至少七个火锅的表现。 Since he has been in Denver, coach George Karl called Camby's past six weeks "the most consistent period of time that he's played well." "I think he should get votes (for defensive player of the year)," Karl said. "I definitely think he should get votes. If you're talking about the last six weeks, I'd definitely say, yeah. His defense in the last four, five, six weeks has been pretty incredible." 教练George Karl把过去六个礼拜Camby的表现，称作是自从他到丹佛以来， 『最能保持稳定、优良表现的时期』。Karl表示：「我认为他应该得到支持，成为 年度最佳防守球员。毫无疑问，他真的应该受到这样的肯定。如果我们讨论过去六 个礼拜的防守专家，我更加确定没有第二人选，他最近四周五周或六周的表现真是 棒极了。」 Voting for that, and all NBA awards, ends Thursday. 包括最佳防守球员的其他NBA年度奖项投票，将在礼拜四结束。 "The last two years, I've made all-defensive second team," Camby said. "So one of my goals this year was to actually make the all- defensive first team. So hopefully that can happen." Camby说：「过去二年我都入选防守第二队，所以今年我的目标之一，就是入选第一 队。我希望可以成真。」 But Camby's most surprising number: 70. 然而Camby最令人惊讶的数字是『七十』。 He has been valuable to the Nuggets because he has played. Despite injuries to his finger, groin, knee and back, Camby has started 70 of Denver's 81 games. For the 11th-year pro who has been labeled an injury-prone player, that is no small feat. He has played at least 70 games only one other time in his career - 2003-04, which was his second season with the Nuggets. 对金块队来说，Camby一直都很有价值，因为他可以上场做出贡献。尽管为手指、 鼠蹊部、膝盖、背部的伤势所扰，本季目前八十一场球赛，Camby为金块队先发了 七十场。对这位NBA征战十一年，被贴上玻璃腿标签的老将来说，这可不是一件小 小的功绩而已。他生涯里只有另一年可以出赛至少七十场，2003-04球季，也是他 加入金块的第二个球季。 That alone has made Camby reliable. 这让Camby更为可靠。 "He really does make my job easier," Blake said. "And everybody else's job easier." Blake说：「他真的让我的工作更简单，也让其他队友的工作更简单。」 Camby's season hasn't been without its adjustments. The midseason trades altered nearly everyone's role and his was no different. 没有Camby的适应能力，他的亮丽球季就不会存在。季中的大交易几乎影响了每位球 员的角色，Camby也不例外。 "I think Marcus had a period of time where he was kind of searching for where his role was, where his identity was. In the last four or five weeks, he's found it," Karl said. "He's dominant at the defensive end of the court. In this offense he's going to get enough offensive touches. And he knows how valuable he is. 老爹表示：「我认为Marcus曾有一段时间在寻找自己的角色、定位。过去大约四或五 个礼拜之後，我想他找到了。他在防守端扮演主宰者的角色；进攻端可以参与进攻， 因此他知道自己的价值所在。」 "We as coaches feel that third guy is the reason we win. And Nene helps us out there, Marcus helps us out there. Having three studs a night is very difficult to defeat by most teams in the NBA." 「我们教练团认为，有第三人挺身而出是赢球的原因。Nene或是Marcus都可以帮我们 赢球。一场比赛有三个人撑起大局，不管对哪只NBA球队来说，要打败这样的队伍非 常困难。」 Camby, who has three years left on his contract, never has won the NBA defensive player of the year award, but admitted that this season "it crossed my mind a little bit." 还有三年合约在身的Camby，从来没有得到年度最佳防守球员这项殊荣，但他承认 本季这样的表现，让他的脑海里闪过了最佳防守球员的念头。 "I don't really see who else has been putting in the work that I've been putting in on the defensive end," Camby said. "If you add up all of the things that I bring to the table - rebounding, blocking shots; for a guy my size I take charges, I'm always on the floor. I do a lot of hustle plays out there. So I think all of that embodies what I think the award really is." Camby表示：「我没看到有哪位球员，真的像我这样为防守尽心尽力。如果你把所有 大个儿的工作加起来，我可以摆出篮板、火锅的成绩；而我总是在场上负责看守像我 这样高大的球员，我上场就是拿出拼战精神，把这些组合起来、具体化，这就是我心 目中的最佳防守球员。」 DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE Chris Dempsey's top three picks for NBA defensive player of the year: 1.
