在SBNation看到一篇文章， 提到Bertans跟David Lee，粗浅翻译一下给大家指教讨论: -------------------------------------------- Davis Bertans may have made David Lee expendable by Dan Schultz @ SBNATION 原文网址: https://goo.gl/UXatpC - Six years ago on the night of the 2011 NBA Draft, when the San Antonio Spurs shockingly agreed to trade coach Gregg Popovich’s “favorite player,” point guard George Hill, to the Indiana Pacers in exchange for the rights to Kawhi Leonard — they also received the rights to a little-known European player named Davis Bertans. 距离2011年NBA选秀已经六年了，在那个晚上马刺做了一个令人惊奇的行动: 将Popo的爱将George Hill 交易到溜马，换回第15顺位选秀权并选了Kawhi。 同时，他们也得到了当年第42顺位，并选择了不知名的欧洲球员Davis Bertans。 At the time, Leonard was considered a solid prospect who might one day be as good or perhaps slightly better than Hill, while Bertans was considered a low-risk throw-in who might not ever make an NBA roster. Throw in two devastating right knee injuries in 2013 and 2015, and Bertans' chances of coming to the NBA at times appeared very uncertain. 在那时Kawhi被认为可以成长为一个跟Hill同等级，甚至更好的球员， 而Bertans只被当作一个低风险低报酬的投资，甚至可能根本不会出现在NBA的舞台。 之後当Bertans在2013及2015年经历了两次右膝毁灭性的伤势， 他来到NBA的机会显得更加渺茫。 - Fast forward to 2017. Leonard has become one of the top players in the league while Bertans surpassed expectations during his rookie campaign last season — playing 67 games and starting in six of them. He averaged 4.5 points per game on 44 percent shooting from the field and recorded a 40 percent mark from behind the arc. While those numbers might not immediately jump out at you, he only played 12.5 minutes a game and did a fine job making the most of his limited time on the floor. 快转到2017年，Kawhi已经成为了联盟顶尖的球员， Bertans，也超越了过去我们对他的期望: 登上NBA的舞台并在新人年出赛67场(其中6场先发)， 平均4.5分，拥有44%的命中率且三分命中率达40%。 这些数据可能并不会让球迷们觉得很棒，但要知道， 这是Bertans在平均12.5分钟内缴出的数据， 他在有限的上场时间内兢兢业业的完成他的工作。 Pop noted how impressed he was with Bertans, saying “His confidence and the way he comes into a game — he might come in at the end of the game, he might come in the middle and not expect to be playing — and he doesn't miss a beat. He comes in and plays like he's been playing all night, so that's kind of cool.” Very cool, indeed. Popo 也表示了他对Bertans表现的赞许: "自信及他上场时的心态 - 他可能只上垃圾时间，也可能作为轮换，甚至根本不会出场- 不管怎样他总是保持节奏，就是上场比赛，以他一贯的水准工作，这很酷。" When Bertans came over last year, it made the decision to part ways with Matt Bonner easier. At 6-foot-9, Bertans is essentially a younger, quicker and more athletic version of Bonner. And just like Bertans took over Bonner’s role last year — playing sparingly off the bench and being a reliable stretch four — it’s fair to say that his capable play last season was a factor in the Spurs deciding not to bring back the older and more limited David Lee this season. 人们很容易从Bertans去年的表现联想到Matt Bonner， 拥有6"9'的身高，Bertans无疑是一个更年轻、更敏捷、更有运动能力的三明治猎人。 而当Bertans完成了Bonner以前的工作 - 从板凳出发，当一个可靠的延伸4号位 - 对於马刺队来说，Bertans的好表现会是他们不签回老化後的David Lee的原因。 The choice not to bring Lee back seems like it could have been a difficult one, being that he played played hard, knew his his role, was loved by his teammates and seemed a perfect fit for the team’s culture. Unfortunately for Lee, he’s never been an outside shooter, and that’s something players on this year’s Spurs team need to do. Throw in his lack of speed, his age (34) and a tough knee injury to end last season, and it made perfect sense why the Spurs wanted to move on and give Bertans a bigger role. Lee勤奋的工作态度、对於自身角色的体认、与队友紧密的关系， 都是马刺队难以放弃他的原因，特别是他与"马刺文化"相当契合。 但当我们看到马刺在今年的补强以外线投射为主要考量时， Lee的内线技术明显得不符合需求。年迈且缺乏速度，加上去年季後赛的膝伤， 马刺选择与Lee分道扬镳并把他的上场时间给予Bertans显得非常合理。 Lee had the chance to come back to the Spurs too, but he turned down his player option for this season. Because the Spurs weren’t left with a ton of cap wiggle room once they signed Rudy Gay and took care of Pau Gasol, Manu Ginobili and Patty Mills, this proved to be the final nail in the coffin for Lee. Bertans, meanwhile, is still on a rookie contract. 球季结束後Lee有球员选项可以自己决定是否续留马刺，但他选择跳出。 而马刺在招募到Gay，续留Gasol、Manu、Mills後已经没有多余的薪资空间， 这让Lee的留队可能性几乎归零，Bertans，则还在领他第二年菜鸟的薪水。 It’s clear that Bertans already has the trust and support of PATFO as well as his teammates, important for any young player. His confidence in his shooting, combined with the perseverance he showed battling back from two tough injuries, has helped mold him into the player he’s become. The scary part? He's only 24 years old. Bertans will have to play with the same assured attitude he had last season. It’s fair to expect some sophomore bumps along the way as he grows into a larger role and more minutes. But his precise sniping from deep, combined with deceptive athleticism, makes him tailor-made for the prototype teams want their power forwards to conform to in today’s NBA. 很明显Bertans已经得到了管理层以及队友的信任，这对年轻球员来说非常重要。 他投射的信心，加上战胜膝伤展现出的毅力，使他能成长为他现在的模样。 重点是，他才24岁。 Bertans必需在新球季展现出跟上一季一样的态度， 可以预期他会在二年级遭遇一些困难，当他拿到更多上场时间後更是如此。 不过他精准的远投、以及与外表不符的运动能力， 使他完美的符合现在NBA球队对4号位球员的要求。 You can bet Pop is going to use him a lot more this season, and here’s hoping he seizes this opportunity by the throat and becomes yet another name in the long list of “draft-day steals” for the Silver and Black. 我们可以打赌Popo会在新球季更多地使用Bertans，并期待Bertans能紧紧抓住这个机会。 或许以後人们提到银黑军团的选秀时，他会成为另一位 "选秀会的大偷"。 --------------------------------- 心得: 出赛6场，场均23.7分钟，平均得分14(投射三围 50.9%，44.7%，90%) 外带3篮板2助攻，这是Bertans在刚结束的欧锦赛缴出的成绩单。 对比七六人潜力新秀 Dario Saric， 出赛6场，场均32.4分钟，平均得分14.8 (投射三围 38.9%，26.3%，82.4%) 外带6.7篮板，2.5助攻。 - 虽然我认为Lauvergne才是Lee的替代， 不过新球季的Bertans也是相当有看头。 希望能加强身体，在投射及空手切入维持水准， 并在内外线防守有更好的表现。 --
