http://0rz.tw/0xtDA In a season that’s been a struggle for both the New Orleans Pelicans and its high-priced import Tyreke Evans, it seems like there’s a growing rift between player, coach and team. Evans did not play in Sunday night’s 93-81 loss to Brooklyn despite head coach Monty Williams playing 11 Pelicans players in the game. When asked why Evans didn’t play, Williams said “it’s just internal right now.” Evans and the New Orleans public relations staff declined to comment on the matter after the game, deferring to the head coach and saying that Williams “ had said it all before.” Williams could have said he was hurt or he was resting, but the unique language of the explanation could imply that there’s something more going on. reke和球队的PR都拒绝对这件事有所评论。 It’s no secret that Evans has struggled in acclimating to the Pelicans after coming over in a sign-and-trade with Sacramento that netted Evans a four-year contract worth $44 million. He told Sheridan Hoops before the season in a wide-ranging interview that he would be comfortable coming off the bench, not playing the point guard position and he’d do whatever it took to help New Orleans win. Now as we approach the All-Star break, Evans appeared frustrating with his injuries, “fluctuating” playing time and his communication with Williams. reke明显对於受伤以及不固定的上场时间还有跟总教练的沟通感到挫折。 “He’s trying to figure me out still,” Evans said of his head coach before the game. “Most of the guys that came here are pretty much new [to the team] so he’s trying to fit everybody in and put me in the best position he can.” 「他还在试着了解我，大部分的人都是新来的，所以他正在试着让每个人融入，尽他所能 地将我放到最佳的位置」reke在比赛前说 But when asked whether he and Williams ever discussed his best role on the team openly, Evans said it’s never been brought up. 但当问到他和总教练之间是否讨论过他最好的角色，reke说从来没有过。 "No, we never talked about that,” Evans told Sheridan Hoops. “I haven’t talked to him about it. We talk here and there but I haven’t talked to him about what role is whose on the team.” 「从来没有。我们讨论过很多东西，但没有讨论过角色问题」reke说 Asked if the communication with Williams has to improve, Evans said that it needed to improve. “It has to get better. We have to know our roles on the team.” 问到和总教练的沟通是否需要改善，reke说的确需要。「必须要变得更好，我们必须知道 在队上的角色」。 It seems like Evans is overloaded with responsibilities for the Pelicans coming off the bench, and it’s impacting his play on the court. 看起来reke的负担过重，而且正在影响他在场上的表现 “I have more roles than the team I was on before so it’s tough trying to adjust to all those spots,” he said. “The system is different but it’s not anything I can’t get through.” 「我比过去还要负担更多角色，所以要试着做好这些事情是很艰辛的。体系都不一样，但 并不是我做不到的事」reke说 Evans said he’s felt rushed on the court, trying to do so many different things to help his teammates while he’s out there on the floor. reke说他在场上有点操之过急，当在场上时试着去做很多不同的事来帮助队友。 “Sometimes I think I feel like I have to do too much instead of playing my game and letting it come to me,” he said. And that’s a direct byproduct of trying to keep his playing time up. 「有时候我想我必须去做过多的事，而不是单纯打我自己的比赛，然後找到节奏。」reke 说。而这正是他想要有更多上场时间的副作用。 “When I’m out there, I just have to try to perform so I can keep my minutes up,” Evans said. “And then it gets bad on me because I’m trying to rush things. When I let the game come to me, that’s how I always play and I create that way. ” 「当我上场时，我必须去有所表现，这样子才能让我的上场时间有所提升。而这对我来说 是不好的，因为我会太急。而我必须慢慢进入节奏，这才是我打球的方式」reke说 And all that rushing is affecting his shot. Take a look at how far he’s fallen in shooting the ball since he came to the Pelicans. 而这些事正在影响他的投篮。 Evans Minutes FG % 3 FG % Points Reb Assists PER e FG % O Rating D Rating Win Shares/48 2012-2013 31 47.8 33.8 15.2 4.4 3.5 18.1 50.8 110 111 0.105 2013-2014 24.5 40.1 15.2 12.4 4.3 4.1 17.3 40.9 101 108 0.063 His minutes are down since he’s not starting. His field goal percentage is down more than 7.5 percent and his 3-point shooting has cratered to an incredibly woeful 15.2 percent. His rebound and assist numbers are good as he tried to help his teammates, but his efficiency and points per 100 possessions, as well as his per-minute win shares, have plummeted. 当没有先发的时候上场时间是下降的。投篮命中率也下降超过7.5%，而他的三分命中率是 烂到不行的15.2%。他的篮板和助攻数是好的，但他的效率以及每100次进攻得分和win share都大幅下降 Being rushed is affecting how he shoots. “I’m anxious to help my team get points on the board,” Evans said. “But it can’t just be about scoring, it’ s gotta be about passing and trying to figure out what I can do to help this team win.” 「我很渴望帮助球队得分，但并不只是得分而已，还有传球以及试着了解我能做什麽来帮 助球队」reke说 Evans’ per-36-minute numbers are actually better this year in the major statistical categories, but that’s become moot because his playing time with the Pelicans has gone down significantly from his 2012-2013 season with the Kings. 今年reke在主要统计数字的每36分钟数据是较佳的，但这一点意义都没有，因为他在鹈鹕 的上场时间是大幅下降的。 Per 36 Minutes Points Rebounds Assists Steals 2012-2013 17.6 5.1 4.1 1.6 2013-2014 18.2 6.3 6.1 1.7 New Orleans players didn’t openly discuss what was going on with Evans, but readily talked about how important he is to this Pelicans franchise. 纽奥良的球员没有公开讨论reke怎麽了，但都说他对於球队有多重要。 “He’s a big part of what we’re doing here,” forward Al-Farouq Aminu said. “We’re really excited about all the things he’s done.” 「他是很重要的一部分，我们对於他所做的一切都感到兴奋」Aminu说 Point guard Brian Roberts said that Evans has been aggressive from the start. “We all know the type of player that he is and he’s shown that on the court, ” Roberts said. “To have a guy of that caliber to come in as the 6th man, that’s huge for this team.” 「我们都知道他是什麽类型的球员以及他所展现的东西，对於有这样子天份的人来当第六 人，对於这支球队来说是很巨大的」Roberts说 That aggressiveness Roberts referred to could be because of the rushed way Evans said he’s played. As New Orleans’ big-name offseason acquisition, this pressure to perform and stay on the court has affected his shooting percentages. Not communicating well with the head coach probably hasn’t helped matters either. ============================================================================== --
