Posted on Mon, Dec. 05, 2005 For Cheeks' sake, this team needs some help 为Cheeks着想，七六人需要帮助。 Phil Jasner http://www.philly.com/mld/philly/sports/basketball/13330127.htm THE 76ERS HAVE cleaned up their environment. 七六人巳经整理了他们的球队。 Morale has skyrocketed all through the organization. Postpractice birthday cakes for the players,unceremoniously outlawed last season, are back. Even zone defenses havereappeared. 这个组织的斗志巳经在熊熊燃烧。上一季不成文的禁止球员餐後吃生日蛋糕，现在被允许 了。甚至区域防守也再度出现了。 Now, the Sixers have someother, more pressing (no pun intended) things to clean up. 现在，七六人有其他更多的难关等着去解决。 Sadly, even though Maurice Cheeks is more flexible than the previous coach, the roster - and the depth chart - is not. 令人伤心地，即使Cheeks比之前的教练调度更灵活，但是阵容和深度却不是那麽一回事。 Morale has gone up, but thedefense has gone down. 高涨的斗志，坠落的防守。 The Sixers completed their three-game trip, and their third segment of four-in-five-nights, with a 100-91 loss Saturday night in San Antonio that wasn't remotely as close as the score might indicate. 七六人结束三场客场之旅，最後一场在星期六因为火力被封锁而兵败San Antonio。 They were 0-3 on the trip, giving them seven losses in their last nine overall and leaving them with six losses in succession on the road. They are 8-10, looking ahead to Wednesday night's game against Milwaukee, a team that has already beaten them twice. 在这趟旅途，他们0胜3败。在最近的9场输了7场，并且连续输了6场客场。8胜10败的七六 人在星期三晚上将面对本季巳经击败他们两次的公鹿队。 Yes, they play hard. Yes, they compete. But their biggest offseason acquisition was their coach,a legendary and beloved figure in the history of the franchise, and management owes it to him to provide more than it has. 是的，他们很努力。是的，他们在奋斗。但是他们在球季外最大的收获只有教练Cheeks-- 一个球队历史上的传奇巨星，来提供球队所欠缺的管理。 To wit: Teams can carry up to 15 players, but the Sixers can include just 14 because one of those roster spots belongs to Jamal Mashburn, the injured forward who will retire at some point.Two other spots are taken by Deng Gai and Shavlik Randolph, undrafted rookie free agents who have barely played and aren't really ready to contribute. 球队可以登录15个球员，可是小前锋Jamal Mashburn因伤将要退休，所以实际上只有14个 能用。而Deng Gai和Shavlik Randolph这两个未经选秀的新秀，却完全没有可以上场提供 贡献的能力。 Another spot goes to Louis Williams, the now-19-year-old second-round draft choice who could be, as they say, a year away from being a year away.Now, you're down to 11 men, and backup forward Michael Bradley is coming off preseason arthroscopic knee surgery. 再看Louis Williams，19岁的第二轮选秀，就像人们说的，他还需要几年去学习。这样一 来，只剩下11个可用之兵。而且替补前锋Michael Bradley刚从季前的膝盖关节内窥镜手 术回来。 Then there is veteran Lee Nailon, who tantalized people with a 21-point performance off the bench against the Los Angeles Clippers on Nov. 13, and since then has managed a total of 24 in nine appearances. Backup big man Steven Hunter has taken only 14 rebounds in his last 80 minutes. Even John Salmons, off to the best start of his career and the only dependable scorer in the substitution rotation, shot 3-for-15 on the trip. 富有经验的浪人Lee Nailon，在11月13对快艇的比赛从板凳上来贡献24分，接下来的9场 出场却总共只得了24分。替补的中前锋Steven Hunter在最近的80分钟上场时间只抓下14 个篮板。甚至打出生涯最好的球季初，板凳上唯一可靠的得分手-John Salmons，也在 这三场客场投15仅中3。 As it is, Allen Iverson and Chris Webber have been responsible for slightly more than half the points on a team that was No. 2 in scoring through Saturday night's games. That's good, because Iverson has also been conscious of distributing the ball and allowing it to frequently go through Webber on the high post. It's also good because Webber has been able to play major minutes, at least 40 10 times, with no signs of difficulty 2 years after microfracture surgery on his knee. 在星期六晚上的比赛，Allen Iverson和Chris Webber的得分占了整队得分的一半以上。 这是好事，因为Iverson巳经懂得分球并且信任Webber持球在高位发动攻势。另一件好事 是开过膝盖关节镜手术的Webber本季有10场比赛上场至少40分钟，而且没有任何不适。 But it's not all good. Kyle Korver hasn't been nearly the perimeter threat he was when he led the league in three-point field goals last season. That fastbreak play where Korver would trail Iverson and catch and shoot on the run would look good right about now. And Andre Iguodala often has seemed like a forgotten man in the offense; in the last seven games, he has gotten six, five, six, seven, seven, five and four shots. 但不是每件事都是好的。Kyle Korver巳经不再是去年那个稳定的威胁。不过他总是在快 攻时，紧跟着Iverson，空手走位catch and shoot现在看起来也不错。而Andre Iguodala 在进攻上总是消失无踪。在最近7场比赛，他分别只投6、5、6、7、7、5、4球。 Then, there's the zone. It really helped them in Friday night's loss to the New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets, but it couldn't save them against the Spurs, who just moved the ball up the floor faster and got it to open men. Some teams use the zone as a change-up look; the Sixers have had to resort to it, and even that hasn't closed off the driving lanes. 然後，区域防守。在星期五输给黄蜂的比赛发生了效用，可是对马刺却不能拯救他们，马 刺只是快速地导球，然後找到空档。一些球队用它来改变情势，七六人必须依靠它，即使 无法阻挡底线切入。 I understand why president/general manager Billy King would want to save his $4.45 million trade exception for the offseason. I understand the need for fiscal responsibility and a reluctance to get caught paying a luxury tax. I even understand why, at this point, King would not want, say, Latrell Sprewell or Christian Laettner. (A source confirmed that he did inquire about Toronto's Eric Williams and free agent Darvin Ham, and it's more than likely that he has inquired about others around the league.) I know he learned patience from his days with Indiana executive Donnie Walsh, but I won't understand if he stands pat and insists the Sixers are good enough to not only reach the playoffs, but advance. 我了解为什麽Billy King在暑假想要节省445万的中产例外条款。我了解财务的需求和球 队不想支付豪华税。我甚至了解他为什麽不想提Latrell Sprewell或Christian Laettner 。(一个可靠消息指出他询问过暴龙的Eric Williams和自由球员Darvin Ham，而他更可能 问过联盟中的其他人。)我知道他在学习溜马总管Donnie Walsh的耐心，但是我不了解他 是否太有耐心，而且坚决认为七六人的阵容巳经好到不只是可以进入季後赛而巳。 The Atlantic is the weakest of the East's three divisions; a first-place finish will include a No. 3 seed. A second-place finish could mean a No. 8 seed, or even the lottery. The Sixers aren't as bad as they looked in the second half against the defending champion Spurs, but they're also not as good as the six-game winning streak that followed their 0-3 start. My preseason number was 44 wins, and I'll cling to that for the time being; it's too easy and too early to just get off the train. But they need help. They owe it to themselves, they owe it to the ticket-buyers. 在东区最欢乐的大西洋分区，第一名可成为东区第三种子，第二名可能是第8种子或去玩乐 透选秀。七六人不是像对马刺下半场那样，看起来那麽的弱，但是也不是像六连胜时看起 来那麽强。我季前预测本季44胜，现在暂时还是保持这个想法。现在就说他们不在竞争行 列中太轻易也太早了。不过他们需要助力，不这样做的话，他们对不起自己，对不起买票 进场的观众。 And they owe it to Mo. 而且他们也对不起Mo。 -- 老王，听到没，我们的阵容没你想的那麽好啦! 感谢jimcal和hanway的指教。 --
