http://tinyurl.com/chqovr Wednesday, April 8, 2009 Chris McCosky Auburn Hills -- One of the secondary but critical objectives for Pistons president Joe Dumars and coach Michael Curry this season was to hasten the development of point guard Rodney Stuckey. That mission took on a heightened sense of urgency on Nov. 3, when Chauncey Billups was dealt to Denver. 對 Dumars 和 MC 來說本季次要但也很重要的目標就是加速培養 Rodney Stuckey。 當槍蜥被交易到金塊後更是重要。 There have been ups (not the least his 40-point game against the Bulls) and there have been downs (ill-timed turnovers, poor game management in fourth quarters, missed layups and streaky shooting), but has there been progress? Is he still on track to be the franchise leader the Pistons are counting on him to be? 他有好表現的時候（對公牛時拿40分）和表現很差的時候（不合時宜的失誤， 第四節對球賽掌控度很差，上籃不進，波動的命中率），但他有進步嗎？他還是活塞 要依靠的領袖嗎？ "Stuckey is a young point guard who has handled himself well during a tough season for us," Dumars said Tuesday. "We understand that the point guard position is the toughest position in basketball and Stuckey has stepped in and done a good job for us. 「Stuckey 是個年輕的控衛，在這個艱難的球季他為我們把自己的狀況調整得很好。 我們了解控衛是籃球中最難的位置，而 Stuckey 做得很好。」Dumars 在星期二說到。 "We like his progress this season and expect him to continue to get better." 「我們喜歡他本季的進步，也期望他愈來愈好。」 Statistically, Stuckey ranks in the lower middle of the pack. Among point guards, he's 15th in scoring, 23rd in assists, 32nd in assist-turnover ratio, 11th in rebounding and 15th in field-goal percentage. 在控衛的數據比較上 Stuckey 的排名都算低。 But there have been nights when he has been the most dominant player on the floor. The 40-point game against Chicago, the 38-pointer against Sacramento, the 30-point, nine-rebound, six-assists effort at Indiana -- and for a stretch of 17 games in December and early January, he averaged 18 points and five assists. 但他也有表現好的時候。對公牛拿40分，對國王拿38分。十二月到一月初的十七場比賽 他平均得18分和 5助攻。 "I think he's been great," Curry said Tuesday. "At times he could've played better, but you could say that about all of our guys. But considering the situation he was in, the uncertainty and all the different lineups -- as evidenced by our record -- that had an impact on everybody, so it was definitely going to affect our point guard. 「我認為他很好，」Curry 星期二說。「有時候他可以打更好，但對我們所有人你也 可以這樣說。考慮到他處的情況，不確定性和陣容的不同，我們的戰績就是證明。 這對我們每個人都有影響，所以也會影響我們的控衛。」 "He's still a young point guard and we expect a lot out of him. He's had a big load to carry, but I think he's starting to play better." 「他是個年輕的控衛，我們對他有很多期望。他之前的負擔很重，但我認為他開始 打得比較好了。」 Of all the young point guards in the league, none have had to deal with chemistry issues Stuckey dealt with this season. Just 22 years old, he has shared the backcourt with two unique and prolific scorers -- Allen Iverson and Richard Hamilton. At times he was out there with both. 聯盟中的年輕控衛沒有人像 Stuckey 一樣在本季要處理化學效應的問題。才22歲， 他得和兩個獨特又多產的射手- AI 和 Rip 分擔後場的責任。有時候還要一起面對。 Not only do they dominate the ball, but they do it in different ways -- Iverson off the dribble and Hamilton mostly off screens and movement. 不只兩人都需要球，方式還不同 -- AI是運球，而 Rip 大部分是在掩護和跑位。 On top of that, Stuckey didn't have a consistent post threat to dump the ball off to. Most nights small forward Tayshaun Prince was the Pistons' main low-post option. 最重要的是 沒有一個穩定的低位武器來讓 Stuckey 把球餵進去。大部分時候小王子 是活塞低位進攻的主要選擇。 小王子被貶了嗎 哭哭 "It's a different game as a starter than coming off the bench," Curry said. "There is a different level of pressure and a different level of responsibility. I think for the most part he's stepped up. What's he's done is comparable to what a lot of point guards have done in their second year." 「先發而非從板凳上場是不同的比賽，」Curry 說。「壓力和責任都不同。我想大部分 時候他都有所表現。他的表現和很多二年級控衛是可以比的。」 Curry likes to compare Stuckey to Boston's Rajon Rondo. Rondo was handed the point guard job in his second season last year. He averaged 10.5 points and 5.1 assists. Stuckey has averaged 13.4 points and 4.8 assists. Curry 喜歡拿 Stuckey 和 Rajon Rondo 來比。上季是 Rondo 的第二年。他去年平均 10.5分，5.1助攻。Stuckey 今年則13.4分，4.8助攻。 "Rondo went through some things last year and I thought he was better because of it," Curry said. 「Rondo 去年經歷了一些事，而我想他也因此愈打愈好。」Curry 說。 He expects the lessons learned this season will accelerate Stuckey's growth process even more so. 他預期 Stuckey 本季學到的課題會加速他的成長。 "Game management, of course, is something all point guards have to get better at, and that takes time," Curry said. "But Stuckey has to continue to develop his overall game. I think his mid-range game is really good, but I think he needs to use it more." 「比賽的掌控是所以控衛得做得更好的部分，這需要時間，」Curry 說。「但 Stuckey 得繼續把整體的技巧都練出來。我想他的中距離很好，但他要更常用它們。」 He also needs to make smarter decisions when he takes the ball to the basket. For as aggressive as he plays, he's only averaging 3.6 free-throw attempts per game. "I know I have a lot to learn," Stuckey said. "I am still young, I am in my second year. I know I have a lot to improve on. But I'm planning on being here for a long time. I am going to keep getting better." 他在切入時也需要做出更好的決擇。他這種打法平均一場只有3.6次罰球機會。 「我知道我有很多要學的，」Stuckey 說。 「我還年輕，我現在是二年級生。我知道 我有很多要改善的。但我計畫待在這很長一段時間。我會愈打愈好的。」 --
