http://www.twincities.com/sports/ci_19965486 Timberwolves coach Rick Adelman is determined to find solutions for a recent rash of turnovers committed by his players - 67 in the past three games. Adelman要找到解决方法，球队再对战山猫前的三场比赛就失误了67次 Adelman cites faulty ballhandling as the primary reason for the Wolves' four-game losing streak, and he stressed that point in a lengthy film session with the team before Tuesday's practice. After practice, he had a private chat with Ricky Rubio. Adelman认为对球的处理失务就是导致灰狼输球的原因，他也让球队 看了影带，另外也与Rubio个别谈了这件事。 Specifics of the conversation were unknown. Rubio was unavailable to talk to the media, but Adelman expressed to reporters his concerns with the team's "decision-makers," and Rubio falls in that category, as do fellow point guards Luke Ridnour and J.J. Barea. "You're putting the ball in the hands of your decision-makers, and they have to make better decisions," Adelman said. "That's the key. Guys are trying to make the home run play, not the simple play. Our two point guards had 12 turnovers (Monday night at Orlando). We're not going to win that way." Rubio's five turnovers in the Wolves' loss at Orlando (Barea had seven) prompted Adelman and his staff to implement some "different things" in Tuesday's practice that Adelman said would help Rubio and the team for tonight's game against Charlotte at Target Center. Adelman didn't go into detail on the adjustments, but he believes the time has come to get better ballhandling from his three-guard rotation and the rest of the players. Rubio有4次失误，Barea有7次，这让教练团们在对战山猫队前的练习执行 了"different things"去帮助这支球队，Adelman没有做太多的调整，但他相信 在球权处理上将会变得更好 "Everybody has to slow down, see the game and execute better," Adelman said. Adelman：「每个人都要缓下来看清球赛的状况并把事情做得更好。」 The Wolves 13-16) lead the league in turnovers at 16.4 per game after averaging 20.5 in the past four. The last time the Wolves had fewer than 10 turnovers in a game was against the Los Angeles Lakers, when they had four in a 106-101 loss on Jan. 29. 灰狼平均每场有16.4次失误，对战山猫前第四场平均是20.5次 Before the four-game slide, the Wolves had raised hopes with an encouraging 4-1 stretch that pushed the team over .500. The increase in turnovers is baffling to Adelman and the players, especially after Adelman placed a high priority on ballhandling in training camp and the beginning of the season. "I can't tell you why," forward Kevin Love said of the spike in turnovers. "We're just getting too careless with the ball. We're going back to our youthful ways. We made a concerted decision today to do a better job." Kevin Love：「我不能告诉你为什麽，我们就像回到刚学篮球一样，对球 的掌控常常会太过疏忽，今天我们一制要让这件事情做得更好。」 Most of the ballhandling attention has been placed on Rubio, Ridnour and Barea, but Love and forward Michael Beasley said it's "all of us." Adelman agreed, but he's placing the responsibility on the guards to fix the problem. And because Rubio has been designated the team's primary ballhandler, Adelman seems to be starting the process with the Spanish rookie. "Sometimes he's been pressing to make something happen," Adelman said. "Like any rookie, he's trying to do the right thing." Rubio had been fairly consistent with his ballhandling before Monday's game. He is averaging 3.2 turnovers over the first 29 games, a respectable number for a rookie point guard. Rubio had only two turnovers in Saturday's home loss to New York but both came in the final 24 seconds when the Wolves had chances to take the lead. Rubio, however, is averaging 3.75 turnovers in the past four games. Adelman hopes the entire team improves its mind-set to help keep Rubio's average from climbing any higher. One of Adelman's concerns during the slump is a sense of complacency after topping the .500 mark. "Maybe with the success we had, the guys thought it was going to be that easy," he said. "It's not. We had success because we were playing well. It's not going to be given to you. You have to have resiliency. If you're going to cave in to the situation, you're going to be in trouble." --
