The Amir Johnson Story 关於Amir Johnson的报导 Well, maybe not. There’s another young big man that has also posted outstanding numbers for the Pistons. 嗯，或许不是。这是另一个同样为活塞提供了杰出数据的年轻大个。 In 2005 the Detroit Pistons selected Amir Johnson with the 56th pick of the draft. The following year the NBA instituted an age limit. This implementation of this rule meant that Johnson was the last player selected by an NBA team out of high school. '05年选秀会上活塞以第56顺位挑选了Amir Johnson。隔年NBA设立了一个年龄限制。 这项新规定意味着Johnson成为了NBA球队挑选的最後一名高中生。 In 2005-06 Johnson played only 39 minutes. Last year his minutes more than tripled. And in these 124 minutes he posted a 0.247 WP48. After two years and 163 minutes, the Pistons signed Johnson to an $11 million contract. This means - according to HoopsHype — that Johnson is currently the 6th highest paid player on the Pistons. '05-'06年球季Johnson一共只上场39分钟。去年他的上场时间增加了不只两倍。在那 124分钟里，他的WP48高达0.247。在两年又163分钟後，活塞和Johnson签下了一纸总值 1,100万美元的合约。这意味着 - 根据HoopsHype的资料 - Johnson的薪水在活塞阵中排名 第6。 This season he has once again seen his minutes more than triple. And his WP48 in these 409 minutes currently stands at 0.263. For his career he has now played 572 minutes, produced 3.0 wins, and posted a 0.248 WP48. Such a per-minute mark - both this season and for his career - bests anything posted by any big man on the Pistons roster. 本季他的上场时间又往上翻了不只两翻。而目前他在409分钟的上场时间中WP48数据是 0.263。职业生涯至今他一共上场572分钟，贡献了3.0wins，以及0.248的WP48。这样一项 以每分钟为单位衡量的数据 - 不论是本季或整个职业生涯 - 他的表现比活塞阵中任何一 位大个子都还出色。 When we compare Johnson to these big men we can see why he is so good. 当我们拿Johnson和这些大个子比赛时，我们就能看出为什麽他表现这麽出色。 Table Three: Comparing Amir Johnson to the Other Big Men in Detroit 表三：拿Amir Johnson和其他底特律的大个子做比较 Relative to Maxiel, Wallace, and Antonio McDyess, Johnson is a more efficient scorer, a better rebounder, and he blocks more shots. Plus, only Wallace gets more assists. 和J-Max、溪蛙及袋鼠相比，Johnson是一个更有效率的得分手、篮板机器，而且他送 出更多的麻辣锅。而且，只有溪蛙递出的助攻比他多。 And it is important to note that much of what Johnson is doing this season we saw in limited minutes in 2006-07. 还有很重要的一点要注意就是Johnson本季大多数的表现和我们在去年他上场时间不多 的情况下所看到的相差无几。 Playing Time for Johnson Johnson的上场时间 So why isn’t Johnson playing more minutes this season? 所以为什麽本季不给Johnson更多的上场时间呢？ I am not the only one asking such a question. Here is Terry Foster of the Detroit News (hat tip to Detroit Bad Boys and TrueHoop) 我不是唯一一个问这个问题的人。下面是底特律新闻的Terry Foster(感谢Detroit Bad Boys and TrueHoop的帮忙)。 I love the idea of Antonio McDyess coming off the bench for the Pistons. He plays better off the bench, is more comfortable coming off the bench and can be a major spark against opponent’s second units. That is why the Pistons should entertain the idea of inserting Amir Johnson in the starting line up. 我赞成让袋鼠重回替补担任活塞板凳暴徒的想法。他从板凳出发时表现比较好，感觉 也比较自在，而且可以成为活塞抗敌二军的主力。那就是为什麽活塞应该考虑接受让Amir Johnson加入先发阵容的原因。 He is ready. The last nine games he has averaged 6.3 points, 4.8 rebounds, blocked 16 shots and shot 64 percent from the floor. He is a guy who makes things happen whenever he is on the floor. 他准备好了。过去九场比赛他平均拿下6.3分、4.8个篮板，一共送出16个火锅，而且 还有高达64%的投篮命中率。他是一个只要在场上就能有所贡献的家伙。 Back in November, Detroit Bad Boys devoted an entire post to the wonder that is Amir Johnson. In other words, people have been noticing Johnson for awhile now . 11月，Detroit Bad Boys用一整个文章的篇幅来报导Amir Johnson这个大惊奇。换句 话说，人们注意到Johnson已经有一段时间了。 Yet on Wednesday night Johnson never left the bench in a loss to the Utah Jazz. How could Flip Saunders keep such a talent out of the game? 可是星期三晚上活塞输给犹他爵士的比赛中Johnson甚至没有离开板凳一步。老桑的脑 袋是怎麽了？他怎麽能让这样一个充满天份的年轻小夥子完全没有上场表现的机会呢？ One could point to Johnson’s youth. Although he is in his third NBA season he’s currently the youngest player on the roster (McDyess and Wallace are both 13 years older than Johnson). Maxiell is only four years older, but Maxiell is a former number one draft choice. 有人指出那是因为Johnson太年轻了。尽管本季是他进入NBA的第三年，他仍是活塞球 员名单中最年轻的一员(袋鼠和溪蛙都比Johnson大了13岁)。J-Max只比他大四岁，不过 J-Max是第一轮入选的球员。 Certainly youth (and maybe draft order) play a role in keeping Johnson out of the game. But there might be another reason. Although many of the numbers in Table Three suggest keeping Johnson glued to the bench is a mistake, there is one number that tells a different story. 肯定地年轻(或许还有选秀顺位)是Johnson没被派上场的原因之一。但可能还有另一个 原因。尽管表三中的多项数据指出让Johnson待在板凳上是个错误，还有另一个数据会告诉 我们不一样的事情。 Per 48 minutes Johnson averages 9.27 personal fouls. In other words, he commits six fouls every 31 minutes. No player who started half his team’s games in 2006-07 committed fouls at this pace. And I think it is this issue that might be contributing to the decision Flip Saunders is making with respect to his rotation. 每48分钟Johnson平均要犯下9.27次犯规。换句话说，他每场比赛上场31分钟就会犯满 毕业。'06-'07年球季活塞阵中任何一个先发场次超过一半的球员，没有一个人犯规速度如 此之快。而我认为这可能是老桑在编成他的轮替阵容时考虑的要素之一。 This may come as a surprise, but after intensive research I have learned that players who foul out of games don’t help a team win games. Yes, when you don’t play you don’t help (well some players help by not playing, but that’s another story). Now Johnson hasn’t fouled out of a game yet this season. But his propensity to commit fouls might suggest that Johnson is not quite ready to be a prime-time player. 这可能令人讶异，但在深入研究後我发现一个在比赛中犯满毕业的球员无法帮助球队 赢球。是的，当你没办法上场时你就无法提供帮助(嗯，有些球员不用靠打球就能帮助球队 ，但那不在本文讨论范围之内)。本季Johnson还不曾犯满毕业。但他容易犯规的倾向或许 正说明了Johnson还没做好准备要成为一位主力球员。 If Johnson could stop committing fouls - or maybe just get a bit older - he might see his playing time increase. And if that happened the Pistons could take another leap forward. The numbers suggest that giving Johnson the minutes going to Maxiell would vault the Pistons past the Celtics. In other words, it’s possible that come playoff time, the Pistons could be favored to take down Boston. At least favored by people looking at these numbers. 如果Johnson能尽量避免犯规 - 或者只要等他年纪大一点 - 他或许就能获得更多的上 场时间。而如果那成真了，活塞又有一名大跃进的前锋了。数据显示让Johnson获得和 J-Max相当的上场时间将可以让活塞超越超赛。换句话说，那可能在季後赛时成真，活塞应 该能扳倒波士顿。至少对看过这些数据的人来说是这样啦。 - DJ --
