標題[外絮] McRoberts, Hansbrough dig in at power forward
時間Fri Feb 4 02:29:38 2011
They are as different as Carolina and Duke, but those two shades of blue fit
nicely into the Pacers' new spectrum.
One of the first moves Frank Vogel made when he took the reigns as interim
coach was the installation of Duke's Josh McRoberts and North Carolina's
Tyler Hansbrough as the tag-team rotation at power forward, and the shelving
of the small lineup that had wreaked havoc with the Pacers' frontcourt
rotations.
"I've got a great deal of belief in Tyler Hansbrough and Josh McRoberts and
they're going to own the power forward position," said Vogel. "They're going
to use their energy, their intensity, their passion, their speed, their
athleticism to really make that a position of strength of ours.
"They're young. They're going to make mistakes. But they're going to make
mistakes hard, going hard and I can live with those mistakes. That's going to
be one of the biggest changes in the identity of this team."
Dividing all 96 available minutes in the first two games (58 for starter
McRoberts, 38 for backup Hansbrough), the two have combined for 37 points and
26 rebounds in victories over the Raptors and Cavs.
So far, so good.
For McRoberts, who had been largely banished from the rotation by the small
lineup, the change has breathed life back into his season.
"I feel good about it. I feel confident," he said. "I know Frank has a lot of
confidence in all of us and I think I have a great relationship with him just
from being here, working with him a lot over the last three years. …
"I think we bring different things. Tyler's definitely a better scorer than
me, a better mid-range shooter looking more to score, where I'm looking to
probably facilitate more, get Roy (Hibbert) the ball, get Danny (Granger) the
ball. We're definitely going to bring different looks."
Hansbrough also welcomes the change.
"Before, we didn't really know what was going on and now that Frank has come
out and kind of clarified everything for us it's (a matter of) us going out
there, trying to improve and doing what we can do to try to help the team,"
he said. "I think it's great. Josh does a lot of things, he's a really good
passer, which I'm trying to improve that area to bring it to my game, so it's
good to throw a different mixture in there."
McRoberts will remain the starter for the time being. The Pacers are 13-10
with the lineup of Darren Collison, Mike Dunleavy, Granger, McRoberts and
Hibbert, so breaking up that combination would be a risk. And Vogel likes
having the more offense-minded Hansbrough coming off the bench to provide
scoring punch to the second unit.
"I don't know if it's going to stay that way," Vogel said. "We'll just see
how it's going to go but those two guys are going to own the power forward
position."

2F：推 sliverstream:這兩個球員我都很愛~~加油! 02/04 03:32
3F：推 glenrice:丟一個吧,專心培養漢堡成為佛爺傳人.而且JMR約也快到了 02/04 05:26
4F：→ glenrice:如果不加強空手走位跟中距離,JMR是球隊的攻擊死角 02/04 05:29
5F：→ glenrice:小鄧也丟吧,防守超弱,3分普普,清薪資空間堆五虎將吧!!! 02/04 05:33
6F：推 kkkshih:基本上溜馬就算有薪資空間，也不太能吸引到好球員加入 02/04 07:34
7F：→ kkkshih:倒不如留著年輕球員多練練，可以練出稱職好用的功能性球員 02/04 07:35
8F：推 glenrice:其實未必,很多人一來就愛上印城了,如小歐阿泰 02/04 09:21
9F：推 larson:我覺得就算是攻擊死角,也未嘗不可是先發,想當年Dale Davis 02/04 09:42
10F：→ larson:即是如此~只要JMR能夠在策應,防守上作為球隊的潤滑劑,留著 02/04 09:42
11F：→ larson:也不錯啦~何況印城是他家,續留機會很高 02/04 09:43
12F：→ larson:小鄧的優點是他的進攻跟進能力很好,外線有時候在球隊乾旱期 02/04 09:44
13F：→ larson:也能夠幫忙一點,不過如果可能的話,我認為太陽的VC會更適合 02/04 09:45
14F：→ larson:我們SG這個點,畢竟VC在進攻段可說是相當全面,也有獨自帶球 02/04 09:45
15F：→ larson:進攻的本事,至於防守,可以讓Granger,Rush,George多出點力 02/04 09:46
16F：→ larson:反正小鄧的防守現階段也不會比VC好~ 02/04 09:46
17F：→ larson:回過頭來說JMR跟漢堡,當年若是他倆互換學校,說不定都很開心 02/04 09:47
18F：→ larson:JMR到了UNC說不定就真的有樂透順位,漢堡在K教練的帶領下也 02/04 09:48
19F：→ larson:有可能變成下個Boozer,不過這樣一來溜馬大概都選(換)不到了 02/04 09:49
