All-Star stats, but no All-Star status for Love
The NBA's leading rebounder still has one more chance, however. The league has
to name an injury replacement for Yao Ming.
联盟篮板王还有最後的机会。联盟还未决定姚明的替补。
TORONTO - So many others -- outraged Charles Barkley included -- were surprised
when Western Conference coaches left Timberwolves forward Kevin Love off the
list of NBA All-Star Game reserves announced on Thursday night.
对於Love没有出现在全明星赛替补名单上很多人感到意外,包括老巴,
Just don't count Love among them.
Love不在名单之一。
"I've been better," he said, "but I wasn't very surprised."
"我一直表现出色,"Love 说,"我感到非常意外。"
Love said he learned after Wednesday's home loss to Memphis that he probably
wouldn't be included when the East and West reserves were announced during
TNT's Thursday night NBA coverage.
"I truly and firmly believe in my heart that, solely on play alone, I should
have been in there," he said.
"说真的,就算只看个人数据,我也应该在名单内。" Love表示
Coaches considered other factors -- namely winning -- when they cast their
ballots for players in their own conferences, and this year Western Conference
coaches chose, among others, San Antonio's Tim Duncan, the Los Angeles Lakers'
Pau Gasol and Los Angeles Clippers rookie Blake Griffin.
替补名单的选择也许和球队战绩有关。西区教练选了马刺的Duncan,湖人的Gasol以及
快艇的新秀Griffin。
They did so despite Love's historic individual statistics that Wolves coach
Kurt Rambis has called "ridiculous" and Oklahoma City's Kevin Durant termed
"video-game numbers."
他们并没有正眼看一下Love的个人数据,教练Rambis表示这是"可笑的"。
Love has reached double-digit figures in points and rebounds in 34 consecutive
games, a streak that began on Nov. 22. Before that, he became the first NBA
player since Moses Malone in 1982 to reach 30 points and 30 rebounds in a game,
which he did against New York on Nov. 12.
本季连续34场得分篮板两双。28年来第一为但场30-30的球员。
His 15.5 rebounding average leads the NBA by nearly two boards a game.
Orlando's Dwight Howard is next at 13.6 a game.
场均15.5篮板,领先第二名Howard场均13.6个篮板近两个。
But it was one other number that influenced the coaches' vote more than any
other: 11, which is how many times the Wolves have won.
另外一个西区教练们考虑的点:11。灰狼目前的胜场。
"When it comes down to it, the 11 with the 36 or 37 behind it, that kind of
killed me," Love said. "We know why I didn't make it ... I know winning plays
a big factor. I didn't want to be too upset. I'm not too bitter about it."
"考虑这点,特别是在36或37胜之後的11胜,对我当然不利。"Love表示。"我们都知道这
是为何...我也知道球队战绩很重要。我不想要太过失望。我也不想要过分的觉得这不公
平。"
Now he waits for NBA Commissioner David Stern to decide who will replace
injured Houston center Yao Ming, who was voted the West's starting center by
fans.
等Stern决定是否有机会能替补姚明上场。
Love's last chance to play in the All-Star Game on Feb. 20 in L.A. depends upon
Stern's decision. The NBA said Thursday there's no definitive timetable for
Stern to make that decision.
"We'll just have to wait and see," Love said of Stern, who must also consider
Portland's LaMarcus Aldridge and the Lakers' Lamar Odom, among others. "No
matter how you get in, it doesn't matter. If I make it that way, I still feel
like I'm very deserving."
He's not alone.
On TNT, Barkley called the decision to exclude Love "a travesty" and said he
was "so mad right now" he wasn't sure if he could finish the show.
Love said his phone and Twitter account were "blowing up" Thursday night with
messages from friends, family and fans.
"I know I've had a ton -- a ton -- of support, maybe more so than others have
had in the past," Love said. "I'm happy and thankful for that."
Love said there is good in Thursday's announcement.
"The good thing is, it'll put a chip on my shoulder and make me work harder,"
he said. "It's not going to hurt how I play or how I approach things. It's only
going to make me work harder, to make myself better, to make our team better.
It's only going to make me more hungry."
