※ 引述《pennykidd (回到青蘋果的年代)》之銘言： 嘿嘿，季外沒事翻翻。 : 同樣的事情 另外一篇國外版友的描述 : Westphal said that the most important thing that a coach can do is figure out : ways to highlight the strengths of his team and hide the weaknesses. However, : he does not feel (for example) that the way to mask a team’s defensive : deficiencies is to slow down the game. You can tell that Westphal has a : disdain for coaches that have the reputation for being "defensive minded" : primarily because their teams wait 20 seconds to shoot the ball on offense, : thus greatly reducing the number of possessions per game. Westphal has no : interest in losing games 85-78 and then taking a hollow victory in the guise : of improved defense. 保羅說一名教練所能做的最重要的事情是了解怎麼讓球隊的長處發揚光大和隱藏弱點。 然後他並不認為減慢球賽節奏是掩蓋防守上缺失的方式。你可以知道保羅不喜歡那種所 謂「防守為主」的教練，最主要是因為他們的球隊會在進攻時等到20秒的時候才投籃， 因而大大減低每場比賽攻守的次數。保羅沒有興趣在輸掉一場85-78的比賽時假裝球隊 防守上的進步。(咳咳....nate中槍) : ·The key for the team this year is (a) increasing easy baskets on : the offensive end and (b) decreasing easy baskets on the defensive end. : Westphal wants the team to run, because there are easy baskets to be had in : an up-tempo game. That said, Westphal notes that it is very hard to be : up-tempo when you’re always fishing the ball out of the opposition’s net. : Better defense is the key to being able to be up-tempo. 今年球隊的關鍵是(a)在進攻端增加easy baskets。(b)在防守端減少easy baskets。 保羅想要球隊動起來，因為在up-tempo的比賽會有許多easy baskets。也就是說，保羅 提到當你總是在對手的佈陣外投籃，這是非常難成為up-tempo的比賽。好的防守是關鍵 : ·The main goal for this year is improvement. Win or lose, the goal : is to improve the individual player and the team as a whole. The focus will : be on getting better, always getting better. 今年最主要的目標是進步。各個球員和球隊都是。 : ·Westphal stated that coaches can’t win games, but they can sure : lose them. He expanded on that by saying that a coach and his staff can put a : team into position to win, but the players are ultimately the ones that : execute. On the other hand, the failure to provide coaching leadership can : doom a team. Westphal referenced Red Auerbach, who once implored his Celtics : team to follow the plan. (Paraphrasing) "Even if it’s a really bad plan," : said Auerbach, "if you all commit to it, it still just might work!" : ·Westphal noted that players can/will lose playing time if they do : not play hard. 保羅談到教練們無法贏得比賽，但他們可以確保輸球。又再延伸說一名教練和他的成員 可以將球隊放在對的位置去贏球，但最終執行的人還是球員。保羅提到紅頭，他曾經有一 次求賽隊遵循計畫去走，「就算這真的是個不好的計畫，但如果你們都做到了，仍然可能 會有用」。保羅提到如果球員不認真將會失去比賽時間。 : ·Spencer Hawes and Jason Thompson were mentioned on several : occasions by Westphal. You can tell that he wants them touching the ball more : (especially Hawes), and that he wants Hawes working more in the low post, : noting that Spencer’s free throw attempts per game are way too low. : ·Westphal also stated that the team was amongst the smaller teams : up front at the moment, and they would either need to add another big man, or : be ready to play small. At this point, Thompson would be spending time at the : 4 and the 5. 雙寶被保羅提到很多次。你可以知道他希望他們多點拿球的機會(尤其是Hawes)，而且他 也希望Hawes能夠多在低位進攻，提到Hawes的罰球次數低到嚇人。保羅也提到球隊真的 很矮，需要多添加其他大個或者就準備打小球。在這樣子的情況下，小湯將會打4、5號 : ·Kevin Martin is the team’s "all star-caliber" player. : ·Tyreke Evans is a basketball player. It’s what he does, and it’s : all that he wants to do. Evans plays and approaches the game the right way. : Westphal re-visited Evans’ handling of Johnny Flynn and Brandon Jennings in : pre-draft workouts. Evans是名籃球選手。這就是他所做的，也是他所想要做的。Evans用對的方式在比賽。 : ·Omri Casspi was jet-lagged and a little unprepared for the level : of competition when he got to Las Vegas. Because of the timing of his : arrival, he had to learn the offense and defense on the fly. But he improved : every day, and Westphal thinks that Casspi will be a bona fide NBA player : once he learns the NBA game and life. : ·"You’re going to love Jon Brockman," said Westphal, which is in : an interesting comment about a guy that is still technically a non-roster : player. Westphal says that Brockman is not an offensive force, but what he : will do is rebound, rebound, rebound. 「你會愛上洛克人的」。雖然他還是不在輪替名單中。保羅說洛克人進攻沒威力，但他 會做的就是籃板、籃板和籃板(能夠掌控籃板的人就能夠掌控球賽) : ·Coaching staff primary (but not sole) responsibilities – Jim Eyen : is the lead assistant, and his strength is knowing the NBA and the opponent : (including the opponent’s verbiage). Mario Elie is focusing on perimeter : defense. Truck Robinson is rebounding. ‘Reef is working with the big men and : scouting. Bryan Gates is the gap filler, doing a little bit of everything. 教練團主要的責任--Eyen是首席助教，他的長處是熟知NBA和對手(包括對手的廢話)。馬 力歐主要是外圍防守。卡車為籃板。SAR是長人和情報。比爾蓋茲是打雜的(誤)，每件事 都要做一點。(我們的教練團還真是齊全) : ·Coaching staff and 1 – Pete Carril will be focusing on shooting. : When Hubie Brown improved Memphis, Westphal asked Brown how he did it. Brown : stated that it was an emphasis on shooting that made the difference, and that : for all of the things that get attention, the art of shooting is often : overlooked. Westphal went on to say that a 1% improvement in shooting and a : 1% improvement in defensive shooting percentage could translate into 10-20 : wins all by itself. By the way, the fans in attendance love them some Coachie. Coachie專注於投籃方面。當Hubie Brown讓灰熊進步時，保羅問他怎麼辦到的。Brown說 是因為投籃而導致不同，所有的東西都得到注意，唯有投籃常常被忽略。保羅持續說在 投籃方面只要有1%的進步，在防守投籃方面有1%的進步可能就會多10到20勝。 : ·Finally, in regards to why he wanted this job, Westphal said, "Are : you kidding me? This team won 17 games last year. There is nowhere to go but : up!" Westphal elaborated that to be on the front edge of the resurgence in : Sacramento is exciting, and he relishes the thought of the players and the : coaching staff bringing the fans and the excitement back to ARCO Arena. : All in all, an outstanding evening. Kudos to the Kings for thinking of it. : Final thought – I would challenge anyone to spend five minutes with Paul : Westphal and not be excited about him being here. I really think that he is : the right guy for this team at this time. Let’s get this party started. 最後，問到為什麼他想要這份工作，保羅說「你在跟我開玩笑嗎？這球隊去年只有17勝 不可能再爛了」保羅很努力在怎麼重回國王光榮時刻，他喜愛球員們的想法，教練團將 球迷和興奮帶回Arco。 最後我要挑戰每個人，只要他和保羅在一起五分鐘，然後不會因為他在這裡而感到興奮 我真的認為他是在這個時間這隻球隊的對的人選。 --
