Round 2: Blake Stepp, PG, Gonzaga (#58) DraftCity http://www.draftcity.com/articles/0055.htm Grade: B Not much you can do that far down in the 2nd round, the T’Wolves are trying to fill the gap created by Troy Hudson’s possible departure. He can probably get the ball to Kevin Garnett and hit his jump shots if he is left open. That's about all you can ask for here. 第二轮後段的选秀你没有太多选择可做，所以灰狼试着去填补Troy Hudson可能离队造成 的战力空缺。Stepp也许可以把球传给KG和投进一些空档的跳投，那就是灰狼所希望的。 CBS Sportsline http://www.sportsline.com/nba/story/7448739 Grade: D+ Finally, the punishment is over. With a reprieve last season, this was the fourth and final first round the T-Wolves forfeited their pick as penalty for their under-the-table deal with Joe Smith in 1999. Last year they added prep talent Ndudi Ebi, so it's not like they're not developing someone anyway. And this year, with their lone pick, 58th overall, they grabbed Gonzaga point guard Blake Stepp. They needed depth there and Stepp, at 6-4, was a four-year starter and a second team All-American. He's slow and an erratic shooter, but he has great instincts, played on a team that did well in the NCAA Tournament every year and knows how to win. If nothing else, he has a chance to make the team and add depth. 终於，处罚结束了。除了上个球季被归还的，这是第四个，也是最後一个灰狼因为1999年 Joe Smith密约事件而被没收的第一轮选秀权。去年灰狼选择了潜力新秀Ndudi Ebi，但这 一年来灰狼似乎没有培养出任何人。而今年灰狼运用了他们唯一的58顺位选秀权，选择了 Gonzaga的控球Blake Stepp。灰狼需要提升控球的深度，而6尺4的Stepp，担任了四年的 大学先发控球并入选一次全美第二队。他是个出手慢而且不稳定的射手，但是他有很好的 天赋，在一只年年打进NCAA决赛的强队打球，而且知道如何赢球。没意外的话，他是有机 会进入灰狼来提升灰狼在控球後卫上的深度。 CNN SI http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2004/basketball/nba/specials/draft/2004/06/25 /draft.grades.04/index.html Grade: B+ No first-round pick again (forfeited as part of the Joe Smith fiasco), but they used their second-rounder on Gonzaga's Stepp. He's a heady point guard with an outside chance to make it as an NBA backup, something the T'wolves might need if Troy Hudson bolts as a free agent. 又一次没有第一轮选秀(Joe Smith密约处罚的一部分)，但是灰狼把第二轮押在Gonzaga的 Stepp身上。他是个谨慎的控球，能把握外线的空档，能胜任NBA等级的替补PG。而这是灰 狼有可能需要的--如果Troy Hudson成为自由球员离开的话。 --
