Meet Dominic McGuire http://0rz.tw/FZpjY As we did for Joey Dorsey, we sought out expert opinion on new King Dominic McGuire, acquired along with cash from Washington with a future second round pick heading back. Mike Prada is the founding editor of Bullets Forever and also writes for SBNation.com. Here are his thoughts on McGuire. 繼Joey Dorsey後，我們將繼續介紹新成員Dominic McGuire，我們用一個二輪籤向巫師隊 換來McGurie和一些現金，我們請到Mike Prada﹝Bullets Forever的編輯和SBNation的作 家﹞來談談他。 Dominic McGuire represents the cult hero of Bullets Forever. We dubbed him "Taser" for his ability to come out of nowhere to block shots (in Summer League, alas). Now, he is gone, a flash in the pan. In all seriousness, Wizards fans loved McGuire more for what he represented than what he was. You see, the Wizards haven't exactly been stocked with defensive players these last few years. Worse, our best perimeter defender since 2004 was Larry Hughes. Therefore, Dominic McGuire, with his defensive mindset, represented a great white hope (of sorts) for us. Here was our perimeter defender for the next ten years! Our Bruce Bowen, if you will. Dominic McGuire在Bullets Forever﹝巫師隊的網站﹞就像B級片英雄一樣，他被我們封為 「轟天雷」，因為他常會重莫名的地方竄出送給對手一記麻辣鍋﹝夏季聯盟﹞，現在他離 開了，這是他留下的最後的剪影。 認真來講，巫師球迷對McGuire的愛遠大於他所繳出的表現，過去幾年來巫師都沒有好的防 守球員，更慘的是我們最好的防守球員是2004年的Larry Hughes。因此McGuire的防守態度 讓我們對他有很大的期待，他是我們未來十年最好的防守球員！我們的Bruce Bowen。 Problem is, McGuire's not Bruce Bowen, and I don't just mean on defense. Three years in, and his jump shot is still terrible. I can tell you he works hard on it, but his form is just off and his rotation is ugly. It's a flat, line-drive shot. You can always fix a jumper, but this one's going to be impossible to fix. McGuire also is a pretty poor ball-handler and has absolutely no finishing ability. His only value offensively is grabbing offensive boards. On defense, he's quick and agile, but still struggles at times off the ball. In other words, he's very good on defense, but not good enough to justify his complete inability to help a team offensively. Coming into the season, I figured Flip Saunders might find a place for him. This is a guy that started Trenton Hassell over Wally Sczcerbiak, after all. But it hasn't happened, and he's picked up a ton of DNP-CDs. The cost is cheap for the Kings, but I wouldn't expect much. 問題是McGuire並不是包叔，我指的不是防守，這些年來他的跳投一直沒有長進，我可以告 訴你他絕對有苦練，他的出手機制不穩定而且姿勢很醜，彈道非常的平。跳投是可以修正 的，但在這個例子上來看這是不可能的任務。McGuire的持球進攻也很差，沒有獨自取分的 能力，他進攻上的價值只有進攻籃板而已。防守上，他迅速敏捷，但對於無持球者的盯防 仍很生嫩，總之，他的防守很棒，但沒有好到能彌補他進攻上漏洞。 我認為他沒被交易出去的話，Flip Saunders會幫他找到一個位置的。他最差是Trenton Hassell這種球員，最好的話則能超越Wally Sczcerbiak。但這一切都還沒發生，他幾乎沒 甚麼上場時間，這交易對國王的代價很小，但我也不看好這筆交易。 -- McGuire很便宜，今年80萬，明年球隊選擇100萬， 用一個未來二輪去換到期約說不太通， 但我們已經有比較好而且更便宜的小綠了， 交易他來做甚麼呢？ 我真的不太了。 該不會國王要的是現金週轉吧...0rz --
