鹈鹕的目标是要最大限度地发挥Derrick Favors还有湖人三小将的优势 Pelicans’ goal is to maximize strengths of Derrick Favors, trio of additions from Lakers https://www.nba.com/pelicans/news/pelicans-goal-maximize-strengths-derrick- favors-trio-additions-lakers https://tinyurl.com/yy53yvpn by Jim Eichenhofer Posted: Jul 16, 2019 每位功成名就的NBA球员都会为球队带来一系列技能，但在很多情况下，让球队成功或是 失败的原因却是如何在球场上将他们组合在一起。无论个人还是群体，不能充分发挥每 个球员的能力往往会导致潜力无法兑现。 Every accomplished NBA player brings a set of skills to a roster, but in many cases, what makes or breaks a team’s success is how its pieces fit together on the court. Failure to get the most out of each player often leads to unfulfilled potential, both individually and collectively. 当纽奥良在周二的新闻发布会上介绍了新加入的球员Derrick Favors、Lonzo Ball、 Josh Hart与Brandon Ingram时，大部分焦点都集中在鹈鹕要如何才能够最大限度地发挥 这四人的效果。纽奥良鹈鹕队副总裁David Griffin在星期二的媒体见面会上，花了一些 时间来阐述这四个球员在适应新城市与球队之後，可能因此受益的理由： When New Orleans introduced veteran additions Derrick Favors, Lonzo Ball, Josh Hart and Brandon Ingram at a Tuesday press conference, much of the focus was on how the Pelicans can best maximize what that quartet does best. New Orleans Executive Vice President of Basketball Operations David Griffin spent portions of Tuesday’s media session breaking down what could benefit the four players as they adjust to a new city and franchise: Derrick Favors 由於Jazz中锋Rudy Gobert 的出现，有着9年选手职涯的Favors基於球队需求，更多时候 出任犹他爵士大前锋的位置。随着NBA转而更加依赖可以从外围构成威胁的“延伸四号” ，对於Favors而言尽管他是一名出色的阻攻手（在2018-19的NBA赛季中以每分钟一次而排 在第10名），这意味着他在防守端将远离油漆区。对於这位乔治亚理工学院出身的球员还 得考虑上场时间被缩减的因素；例如，即使他上个赛季先发70场，但是他场均只有上场 23.2分钟。 A nine-year pro, out of necessity Favors was frequently forced to play a bit out of position in Utah at power forward, due to the emergence of Jazz center Rudy Gobert. With the NBA shifting to a much heavier reliance on “stretch fours” who can do damage from the perimeter, for Favors that meant moving away from the paint defensively, even though he’s an excellent shot-blocker (10th in NBA in blocks per minute in 2018-19). It also factored into the Georgia Tech product seeing a reduction in playing time; for example, even though he started 70 times last season, he only averaged 23.2 minutes per game. Griffin说：“他可能最适合担任中锋的位置，他可能是联盟中最好的五个中锋之一”。 这让你很难担任在原本应该打的位置，所以他被要求在四号位置上打出很多时间。很多 Derrick的比赛可能都没有被重用，特别是在进攻端上。我知道（Alvin）Gentry教练会很 高兴看到他全职为我们打中锋。我们为他提供了一个全新的机会 “。 “He’s probably best suited as a center, and he was playing behind one of probably the best five centers in the league,” Griffin said. “That makes it hard to play the position that you probably should play, so he was asked to play out of position a lot, at the four. A lot of Derrick’s game was probably left untouched, particularly offensively. I know Coach (Alvin) Gentry is excited about what he’ll look like playing center on a full-time basis for us. We represent a new opportunity for him.” Lonzo Ball 这位来自加州大学洛杉矶分校两年职涯的选手，在18-19赛季中的主要统计数据几乎全面 下滑，其中包括从新秀的场均7.2次助攻掉到5.4。然而，由於他的上场时间也比较少（新 秀的平均时间为34.2，而第二年为30.3），这应该不会令人太惊讶。仔细观察他的每分钟 数据表，说明随着他在17-18赛季的比赛中打了更多的无球状态，他在洛杉矶进攻上的角 色和任务分贝也发生了变化。在每36分钟内，他从10.7分上升到11.8分，但是他的助攻从 7.6下降到6.5次。而在纽奥良和Gentry的进攻体系中，这位21岁的球员将会更像一名纯控 球後卫。先前的传球优先球员Ish Smith与Tim Frazier，都曾在新月城恢复了NBA职业生 涯水平，而Rajon Rondo更是帮助鹈鹕队在十年内冲进首次季後赛。 The two-year pro from UCLA saw a drop in his major statistics virtually across the board in ’18-19, including going from an average of 7.2 assists per game as a rookie to 5.4. However, since he also logged fewer minutes (34.2 average as a rookie to 30.3 in Year 2), that shouldn’t be overly surprising. A closer look at his per-minute stats demonstrates that his role and job description also changed in the Los Angeles offense, with him playing off the ball more than he did in ’17-18. Per 36 minutes, he went from 10.7 points to 11.8 points, but his assists dipped from 7.6 to 6.5. With New Orleans and in Gentry’s offensive system, the 21-year-old figures to be more of a pure lead guard. Previous pass-first PGs such as Ish Smith and Tim Frazier have revived their NBA careers in the Crescent City, while Rajon Rondo helped the Pelicans win their first playoff series in a decade. 此外，Ball与Jrue Holiday的防守後场组合也令人非常兴奋，他们在过去的两个赛季中都 曾被提名为NBA全联盟防守队。Ball在18-19赛季（47场比赛）并未符合此项荣耀的提名资 格，但他也是控球後卫中每分钟第三好的篮板手（ESPN.com资料），仅次於Russell Westbrook与Ben Simmons）。 Additionally, there is considerable excitement about the defensive backcourt of Ball and Jrue Holiday, who’s been named to an NBA All-Defense squad each of the past two seasons. Ball (47 games) didn’t play enough to qualify for the category in ’18-19, but he was also the third-best rebounder among point guards on a per-minute basis (via ESPN.com), behind only Russell Westbrook and Ben Simmons). Griffin说：“我们有机会在防守上保持特别的优势”。“Lonzo是一真正特别的防守後卫 。他也是一名特别的篮板後卫。这让我们能够以他从前无法做到的方式发起快攻，并发挥 他的许多优势“。 “We have a chance to be special good on that side of the ball (defensively), ” Griffin said. “Lonzo is a truly special defensive guard. He’s also a special rebounding guard. That’s going us to enable us to start our (fast) break, and play to a lot of his strengths, in a way perhaps he wasn’t able to play to before.” Brandon Ingram Griffin比较了他对於Ingram潜力的热情，对於他的未来之看法，以及他对Ball的预测。 Ingram在上个赛季就在他似乎达到一名球员的另一个水平，却因为他右手臂血栓而缺阵之 前，於2月/3月缔造了他职业生涯中迄今表现最好的一段时期。Ingram（过去两年的例行 赛出赛111场比赛）与Ball（99场）都可以看到他们的进步因受伤而略有减缓，但鹈鹕队 认为这对21岁的球员可以得到更多的改善。 compared the enthusiasm he has for’s potential, as well as his vision for his future, to his projections for Ball. Ingram compiled the best stretch of his career in February/March of last season prior to being sidelined due to blood clots in his right arm, just when he seemed to be reaching another level as a player. Both Ingram (111 games over past two regular seasons) and (99) have seen their progress slowed a bit by injuries, but the Pelicans believe so much more improvement is possible for the pair of 21-year-olds. “我们同样认为Brandon可以做一些他以前没有机会做的事情”， Griffin非常轻松地谈 及这位前锋的到来。“Lonzo和Brandon都在伤病方面上遇到了一些问题，这在某些程度上 破坏了他们在职业生涯早期所获得的声势。他们是如此年轻且如此的有才华，并备受期待 ，每个人都希望这些期望赶快兑现。我们却不希望它太快发生；我们希望它在适当的时间 发生“。 “We feel very similarly about Brandon getting to do some things that he wasn ’t getting the opportunity to do,” Griffin said of the forward’s arrival in the Big Easy. “Both Lonzo and Brandon have had issues along the way with injuries, which have somewhat derailed the momentum they would’ve gained early in their careers. They are so young and so talented, that so much was expected, and everybody wants it to happen so quickly. We don’t want it to happen quickly; we want it to happen at the right time.” Griffin补充说，“我们知道我们将会发挥整个团队的优势。每个人都将意识到这对於我 们所有人来说，都是一个特殊的机会。我认为这对我们来说是一个很大的课题，也是我们 在整个字球球员市场中所做的一切，还有我们能够得到的其他事物“。 Griffin added, “We know that we’re going to play to the strengths of the group as a whole. Everyone was aware of the fact that this was a special opportunity for all of us in terms of fit. I think it’s a big theme for us and everything we tried to do throughout the free-agency process as well, and with the other acquisitions we were able to make.” Josh Hart 维拉诺瓦出品的後卫是湖人的稳定替补与角色球员，但Griffin认为Hart可以拓展他的比 赛并为纽奥良做出更大的贡献。 The Villanova product was a steady reserve and role player for the Lakers, but believes there are areas in which can expand his game and make even greater contributions with New Orleans. “他跟Brandon非常类似，我们认为他有尚有一些仍未开发的优势”，Griffin说。“ Brandon是优秀的组织者并具备长时间运动型後卫的能力，让他能够担任多个位置。我们 觉得Josh可以做同样的事情，并且他可以在球场上的多个位置制造投射机会，这对我们来 说很棒（因为）它可以为Alvin带来更多变化 “。 “Very similar to Brandon, we think he has some really untouched upside,” said. “’s ability as an elite playmaker and long, athletic defender is going to allow him to play multiple positions. We feel like Josh can do the same thing, and he’s a shot-maker from multiple positons on the court, which is great for us (because) it’s going to give Alvin a great deal of versatility.” 哈特在湖人队的471次三分球出手中的命中率为36.1％，其中包括新秀年的39.6％。依据 湖人队的电视随队记者Mike Trudell的说法，他上赛季的准确性下降至少部分是与伤病有 关；Hart在10月、11月与12月的远距离投射命中率至少达到37.5％，但是从1月1日起却仅 有26/103，直到3月下旬因伤退出。 Hart shot 36.1 percent from three-point range in 471 attempts with the Lakers, including 39.6 percent as a rookie. According to Lakers TV sideline reporter Mike Trudell, at least part of his decrease in accuracy last season was injury-related; shot at least 37.5 percent from distance in October, November and December, but was just 26/103 from Jan. 1 until he was shut down due to injury in late March. Griffin强调纽奥良认为所有的这四名球员都是非常适合阵型 - 这种感觉是相互的。 Griffin emphasized that New Orleans believes all four players were excellent fits based on the roster – and that the feeling is mutual. “When you look at the situation the organization was in, as we tried to build this completely different culture, having players who are equally committed to us is very meaningful,” Griffin said. “Derrick Favors could’ ve chosen to go almost anywhere, and Utah was going to accommodate that (in any trade), out of respect for everything Derrick had done there. He chose us. These gentlemen from the Lakers, they were going to be in demand in a lot of places, and they recognized the fit with us. They recognized the fit with Jrue Holiday. I think that’s a special, meaningful thing as we start to build from here.” “当你看到球团组织所处的情况时，在我们试图建立完全不同的文化时，拥有与我们致力 於同样目标的球员是非常有意义的”， Griffin说。“Derrick Favors几乎可以选择去任 何地方，而且犹他出於对Derrick在那里所做的一切的尊重，都将会配合（不论是哪种交 易）。他选择了我们。来自湖人队的这些先生们，他们在很多地方都将受到欢迎，他们也 认同我们的契合度。他们认同与Jrue Holiday的契合度。我认为这是一个特殊的、富有意 义的事情，因为我们从这里开始重新构建一支队伍“。 --
