※ 引述《jerod (KG4MVP)》之铭言:

: 今夏测试重头戏 Corey Brewer 、 Julian Wright 、 Al Thornton 、 Thaddeus Young
: 请翻。
: So, that's what it must have been like watching Hulk Hogan hit the weights on
: one of those outdoor gyms near the beach in California (circa 1990).
: Instead of seeing Hogan's veins pop out of his arms on a 100-pound bicep
: curl, those present on Target Center's main floor Friday morning saw Florida
: State's Al Thornton hammering a dunk, Florida's Corey Brewer draining a
: three, Kansas' Julian Wright swatting a shot or Georgia Tech's Thaddeus Young
: executing a cross-over dribble.
星期五早上Target Center有场大戏上演。分别是Al Thornton爆炸灌篮;Corey Brewer
三分轰炸;Julian Wright的火锅秀:Thaddeus Young的闪电过人
(swat a shot是把球敲掉的意思??)
: "It was a great workout," said assistant general manager Fred Hoiberg. "Those
: guys really got after it hard, really competed and wanted to win every
: drill."
: "This is one of the best workouts in terms of top prospects, and this is how
: it's going to be night in and night out," said a drenched-in-sweat Wright.
: Of the four workouts conducted by Minnesota leading up to the June 28th NBA
: Draft, Friday's featured the most impressive collection of talent to date.
: All four players are athletic, long (between 6-7 and 6-9) and versatile --
: three of the favorite buzz words for talent evaluators.
: And things were getting fierce. Real fierce.
: "I asked Corey if they wanted to (stop), and he said, 'No, let's keep
: going,'" said Hoiberg. "That's the kind of competitors those guys are. They
: are winners, all four of them. They all bring something different and
: something unique."
今天测的都是6-7到6-9的球员,都是很有才华的球员
市长说”今天的workout太赞了,大家都很认真,都想赢,大家都投注全部的力气”
”我问 Corey Brewer你们要不要休息了,他说我们再继续打!!”
: Of course, it wasn't all cupcakes and fireworks; there were plenty of missed
: shots, collisions and turnovers in the 1v1 and 2v2 drills we watched. It was
: clear that the prospects were collectively fatigued, as for some, it was
: their fifth workout in as many days.
: "It's a grind," said Brewer. "You go from city to city, working out for
: different teams, and this is my fifth workout. You have no days off really."
: However, if anyone betrayed what must have been a tired set of legs, it was
: Thornton. Though he may not be as high on Chad Ford's "Top 100" as Brewer (6)
: or Wright (8), Thornton (10) looked as solid as Hulk's left pectoral after a
: bench-press session.
当然workout不是完美,一定有一堆失误和失投在这一对一或二对二的比赛里
”workout真是硬,你每天从一个城市飞到另一个城市去workout,这是我的第五个workout
几乎没有时间休息,”brewer说
: "No brainer," said an on-looking Randy Foye when asked who stood out. "The
: kid Thornton from Florida State. He's a beast. He plays really hard and he's
: aggressive."
: "I'm aggressive, and I can provide a scoring punch right away," said
: Thornton, who hit 45 percent from three-point land in college. "I play
: defense with intensity, rebound, and feel like I'm a great teammate getting
: along with the guys."
: No one has seen more of Al recently than Corey Brewer, who has already been
: in five workouts with Thornton for different NBA teams.
: "Al Thornton impresses me every day," said the two-time national champ. "He's
: a beast. Your body takes a beating every time you go up against him. I really
: respect him; he's a warrior."
在旁边看的Foye说”
佛罗里达州大的Thornton实在太猛了,他打球很积极很有侵略性”
Thornton说”我打得很有侵略性,我可以马上帮球队得分!”他大学三分球命中率45%
”我还可以防守和抢篮板,而且我将会是个好相处的队友”
对Thornton印象深刻的还有Brewer,他五个workout都跟Thornton一组
"Al Thornton每天都令我印象深刻,他真是个猛兽,我每次想防守他时都觉得自己的
身体受到重创,我真的很尊敬他,他是个勇士!”
: A power forward in Bobby Bowden land, Thornton will switch to his more
: natural (according to him) 3 position next year. However, it's important to
: consider that the particular drills run in these types of workouts -- namely
: 1v1 and 2v2 drills in pick-and-roll or low-post-entry-pass settings --
: probably fit Thornton's skill set better than that of Brewer or Wright, who
: excel in the open court.
: "Some are better in a 5-on-5 setting," explained Hoiberg. "That's the one
: thing you don't get here, is watching them get up and down the court. A few
: of them, if you put them out 5-on-5, they'd show way better than 1-on-1 or
: 2-on-2."
Thornton将可以被要求打三个位置(2,3,4号)。
但workout的表现跟workout的型式有关
像一对一或二对二的挡切和低位单打对Thornton很有利的
在这方面他的技术比Brewer or Wright都好!在这种半场比赛中
市长说
”这种半场的是一种 但五打五又是另一回事,有些东西还是要看全场比赛才准”
这就是为何市长,Kevin McHale和全部的工作人员花整年去看他们比赛的影带
了解他们在不同状况的表现
: That's why Hoiberg, Kevin McHale and the entire Wolves' staff spend all year
: watching these players in as many different situations as possible.
: "You try and take what you can out of these workouts, combine that with all
: the scouting you do with these guys throughout the year and their careers,
: and you try to make the right decision," stated The Mayor.
: For example, anyone who watched the NCAA tournament saw what the Final Four
: MVP Brewer can do in the open court, skills that weren't going to come out
: playing the thicker Thornton 1v1.
想必大家看过NCAA总冠军赛Brewer的表现,像这种东西在和 Thornton 1v1是看不出来的
: "I think I can bring solid defensive abilities on the wing, and a versatile
: transition game on offense," offered Brewer, who said he would fit in nicely
: on the wing with the Timberwolves. While he identified shooting his jumper
: consistently and improving his handle as key needs, he said that what
: separates him from other guys is his proven track record as a winner.
: "Not too many guys won as much as I did in college," he said. "I'm going to
: bring a winning attitude no matter where I go."
”我想我能防守,和多元的进攻”brewer说
他说他很适合灰狼的队形
”没有人比我在大学赢过更多球,我会把赢的态度带到我去的地方”
: Another guy who won a lot in college is Wright, whose Jayhawks were a No. 1
: seed who reached the Elite Eight before bowing out to UCLA.
: "I'm a pretty good playmaker in the flow of the game, and in the open court,"
: said Wright. "I can do a lot of the little things that are necessary to help
: a team. The face of the team is Kevin Garnett, but coming in here I feel like
: I'd be able to mesh real well in terms of being able to play a lot of
: different spots and make things happen."
另一个在大学也赢很多球的是Wright,
”我在流动的比赛中是很好的playmaker"
"我可以做很多小事帮助球队,灰狼的老大是KG,我觉得我会在狼队适应的很好
我可以制造有利的条件给灰狼”
: As a 6-9 playmaker with long arms, Wright showed off his passing skills and
: swatted a few shots in the 2v2 drill, but did struggle to find consistency on
: his jumper. Meanwhile, the explosive Young looked quite solid for an 18-year
: old, betraying some earlier reports that he's skinny and will get pushed
: around.
这个6-9的playmaker有很长的手,他展现了很好的传球,也煽掉了几个球 在这2对2的比赛中
但他的跳投还是鸟鸟的
: "I've always had big shoulders," he explained. "Right now I'm starting to
: fill out, and I've actually gained a lot of weight since Chad Ford put those
: comments up. I'm getting there."
另外,才18岁的Young也展现了自己的身体强度,
改变之前人家说他瘦的疑虑
Young说”我有很强的肩膀""我也增加了自己的体重和肌肉”
: In summary, it was an impressive workout for four prospects who promise to be
: heard from often in the coming years: Brewer did nothing to suggest he won't
: be a great player and perhaps a steal at the No. 7 spot ... if he's still on
: the board; Young's name reflects his age if not his basketball maturity, but
: in this workout he didn't outplay anybody; like Brewer, it wasn't the best
: setting for Wright, but his talent is undeniable.
: Alas, if it's possible for one player's stock to rise in such a brief window,
: Thornton's was like Apple's promises to be after the iPhone hits stores. As
: KFAN's Paul Allen would say, "He NICE!"
Summary:
1.有人怀疑Brewer的能力,但他没让人失望,他还是有可能在第7被选走
2.Young还是很菜
3.像Brewer一样,Wright的状况还是不是太好,但他的才华是没有被怀疑的
4.如果球员有股票的话,请买Thornton,这家伙的身价正在上涨中!!
