Oops. 今年或许会是小米粒破茧而出的一年，但他和一样在最近世锦赛中表现令人惊艳的阿 漏油於上个球季被交易至奥兰多魔术换取K.Cato(在底特律几乎毫无建树而且未与球队续约 )以及一个未来的第一轮选秀权。而球队这样运作的用意是为了挪出一些薪资以留住班蛙， 结果大家都知道了，唉～。 Introducing your 2006-07 Detroit Donuts, a team with a hole in the middle, but otherwise very appetizing. 　　现在向你介绍'06-'07年NBA新加盟的球队 - 底特律甜甜圈，一支中间破了个大洞的球 队，但其他部分仍是令人食指大动。 Free-agent hire Nazr Mohammed, last seen backing up Rasho Nesterovic in San Antonio, is the man most likely to inherit Wallace’s starting job. Wallace is the four-time Defensive Player of the Year; Mohammed has never averaged 30 minutes or 9 rebounds in a season ... but he did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night. 活塞自自由球员市场找来了上一份工作是在圣安东尼奥马刺担任R.Nesterovic替补的 回教人，他将是本季最有可能补上班蛙先发位置的球员。不过班蛙贵为四度年度最佳防守 球员的得奖人，而回教人职业生涯却从未有过一个球季平均上场时间超过30分钟或平均篮 板超过9个的成绩单...但他昨晚确实是和其他活塞球员一同下榻於假日小酒店。 The remainder of Detroit’s All-Star-laden roster returns intact, augmented by free agents Ronald Dupree and Flip Murray. Dupree and Murray provide much-needed depth because it’s impossible to conceive the Pistons making it through another season with ZERO missed games from their top six players. 除了班蛙，活塞另外先发四虎全都归队了，另外还增加了从自由市场投奔而来的R. Dupree以及F.Murray。Dupree和Murray提供球队最需要的阵容深度，因为活塞几乎不可能 再有另外一个只由先发五虎及球队第六人包办几乎所有球赛的球季。 Detroit’s top reserves, Lindsey Hunter, 36, and Antonio McDyess, 32, both have extensive injury histories, so developing some young talent is paramount. Detroit had no first-rounder, settling for second-rounders Cheik Samb, a raw 7-1 center from Senegal and Will Blalock, an athletic point guard from Iowa State. 活塞主要的两名替补球员是36岁的猎人以及32岁的袋鼠，他们两人都有令人望之生畏 的惨痛伤病史，所以培养一些年轻而有天份的球员是球队除了再度登顶外的首要任务。活 塞今年没有第一轮入选的新秀加入，只有身高7尺1寸但球技仍相当生涩的塞内加尔籍中锋 C.Samb以及爱荷华州大出身，运动力出色的控卫W.Blalock等两名二轮新血注入。 The offense should still be among the NBA’s most efficient, provided Rip Hamilton, Chauncey Billups, Rasheed Wallace and Tayshaun Prince can remain healthy. They share the ball and turn it over less than any other team in the NBA (11.4 tpg last season), and they’re one of the NBA’s best three-point shooting teams. In January, people were saying this was a team with five All-Stars. Only one of them left. 活塞的进攻效率应该能继续保持在全联盟前几名，前提是RIP、枪蜥、溪蛙和小王子能 保持健康。他们尽情享受分享的乐趣而且全队平均失误数为联盟最低(上个球季每场比赛平 均失误11.4次)，而且他们还是联盟三分能力最杰出的球队之一。一月时，人们都说这是一 支拥有五个全明星球员的球队，而现在只有班蛙离开了。 This is a proud team, one that should be motivated by predictions of its demise (one ESPN columnist had them ranked 11th in the Eastern Conference). It’s not a team, though, that will repeat last year’s 64-win regular season. A lack of depth, the loss of Wallace, and the improvement of other Eastern teams, will see to that. 这是一支极度重视荣誉的球队，他们应该会受到球评普遍看衰的负面评价所激励(某位 ESPN的球评预期他们本季战绩会排在东区第11位)，尽管这将不会是一支能够再一次重复上 个球季64胜光荣战绩的活塞。缺乏板凳深度，失去精神领袖班蛙，以及其他东区球队的进 步，我和大家一样期待活塞本季还能拿出什麽样的表现。 If they can keep alive their 50-win streak for another season, the season should be considered a success. 如果他们能将连续50胜球季的纪录继续延续下去，那本季就能视为是个成功的球季了 吧。 --
