簡單翻譯一下 (其實是邊翻邊看) ※ 引述《RonnieBrewer (Ronnie Brewer)》之銘言： : Meet the ‘who-dats’ on Jazz fall roster : Friday, September 29, 2006 8:33 PM CDT : CHUCK NUNN/Jazz Session 認識爵士秋季名單的「大眾臉武將」們 二零零六年九月廿九日星期五晚上八點卅三分，CDT 作者Chunk Nunn／Jazz Session (註：「who-dats」我不太確定是什麼意思，上網看其它文章推測了一下 感覺有點像是「小兵」、「雜魚」、「湊數的」。有點貶意，但好像又沒那麼負面 總之我不確定，還請高手指正) : With the announcement Friday of the Utah Jazz 2006 fall camp roster, I'm going : to break off breaking down the positions for today and focus instead on some : of the 「who-dats」 on the camp roster. The position breakdowns ─ plus lots : of stuff from Monday's media day in Salt Lake City ─ will pick up next week. 隨著爵士隊推出他們2006年秋季訓練營的名單，今天我決定把對爵士各位置的探討停刊 一次，改成介紹爵士秋季名單中那些「陪練」的球員們。至於爵士各位置探討，將於下 週同一時間繼續推出，而且加進了許多爵士媒體日所獲得的資訊，內容很豐富喔！ : The first invitee who caught my eye was 7-2 Frans Steyn, a South Afrikaaner : who played three years at Oklahoma State before transferring to NCAA Division : II school Southwest Baptist University for starters' minutes. He averaged : 12.4 points, 7.8 rebounds and 2.1 blocks per game his senior season. 首先這些受邀球員中最引我注意的是七呎二吋的 Frans Steyn。南非人，在奧克拉荷馬 州大打了三年，後來轉到NCAA第二級的學校 SBU打先發。在大四那年平均每場12.4分， 7.8籃板，2.1火鍋。 : Of course, it seems like anymore people think of most 7-2 players as big : stiffs who can't contribute in today's basketball. But some of the buzz : from Steyn's summer pre-draft workouts is pretty good. 當然，似乎有越來越多人認為大多數七呎二以上的大個兒都太笨拙以致於無法適應當今 的籃球賽了。但也有流言說Steyn在今年夏天在選秀測試時做得很不錯。 : In a May 31 workout with the New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets, Steyn was : pitted against first rounders Patrick O'Bryant and Shelden Williams, and : Hornets brass was pretty impressed by what they saw. : 「He held his own against those guys, which was something I didn't expect」 : Hornets coach Byron Scott said after the workout. 「He's a big, strong kid. : He's a little bit more athletic than I thought he was. He was good around : the basket and finished strong.」 : Steyn also worked out this summer in Chicago with Jazz second-round pick : Dee Brown and other draft hopefuls with Tim Grover, Michael Jordan's former : personal trainer. 在五月三十一日黃蜂隊的測試中，Steyn被安排與首輪新秀Patrick O'Bryant和Shelden Williams進行對抗，而黃蜂當局對他印象深刻： 「他在對抗那些傢伙時很撐得住，坦白說這出乎我們意料外！」黃蜂教頭 Byron Scott 在測試之後說：「他是個大隻又強壯的小子。他比我預期的更有運動力。他在籃下表現 很好，打得很猛。」 Steyn也曾與後來的爵士新秀滴布朗一起在公牛進行測試，在場的還有 Michael Jordan 的前任私人教練Tim Grover。 : The Jazz got a look at Steyn when he played with the San Antonio Spurs' entry : in the 2006 Reebok Rocky Mountain Revue. Steyn played in three games for the : Spurs, totalling eight points, three rebounds and a block. 洛磯山夏季聯賽的時候爵士也趁機觀察了一下他。他為聖安東尼奧馬刺隊出賽，上了三 場，總共得八分、三籃板、一火鍋。 : Tyler Smith, a 6-6 forward out of Penn State's Class of 2002, had his most : notorious season with the Nittany Lions during his junior year. Smith started : 32 of 33 games for Penn State, which went 21-12 overall and made its first-ever : appearance in a modern-day NCAA Tournament Sweet 16. Smith averaged 7.6 ppg. : and 4.5 rpg and was named as one of 16 finalists for the 2001 USA Men's World : University Games team. Tyler Smith，6呎6的前鋒，來自賓州州大，2002年新秀，大三那年聲名大噪，出賽 33 場，先發32場，打了個21勝12敗並首度進入甜蜜十六強。 Smith平均7.6分，4.5籃板， 並進入了2001世界大學運動會美國代表隊的最後十六人名單中。 : Smith's senior season with the Lions was better individually, but the team : didn't fare as well as the previous season. Smith averaged 12.1 ppg game : while grabbing 4.9 rpg. He shot .456 from the field and had 27 steals and 39 : assists. Smith大四那年的個人數據更好，但球隊戰績卻變差。他每廠場可得12.1分、4.9籃板， 命中率45.6%，還總共有27抄截與39助攻。 : Hiram Fuller, a 6-9 forward out of Fresno State, played briefly with the : Jazz during the Rocky Mountain Revue this summer. In two games, Fuller : tallied eight points and five rebounds. Hiram Fuller，來自Fresno State的六呎九吋前鋒，曾短暫為今年爵士在洛磯山夏季 聯盟出賽，出賽兩場，共得八分五籃板。 : Five-foot-nine Brian Chase played his college ball at Virginia Tech. Chase : played last season with the NBA Development League’s now-defunct Roanoke : franchise. In three games, he averaged 13 points per game and six assists per : game. He's also seen action with the CBA's Gary Steelheads and the ABA's : Maryland Nighthawks. 五呎九的 Brian Chase大學就讀維吉尼亞理工，上季則是為NBDL的維吉尼亞羅諾克隊 效力(此隊現已裁撤)，出賽三場，平均每場13分6助攻。此外他也在CBA的蓋瑞鐵頭隊 以及ABA的馬里蘭夜鷹隊的名單上。 : With first-round draft pick Ronnie Brewer automatically guaranteed a contract : and second rounder Paul Millsap getting a partially guaranteed deal, the heat : will be on Brown, Steyn, Smith, Fuller and Chase as they compete for the two : possible remaining roster spots Utah has left. That makes October a pretty : interesting month for Jazz watchers as the countdown to the 2006-07 NBA : season is on. 因為首輪新秀Ronnie Brewer已自動有了保障合約，而二輪新秀 Paul Millsap也簽了 部分保障合約，這導致Dee Brown將和Steyn、Smith、Fuller以及Chase來一同爭取爵 士隊最後兩個名額。這些人的競爭將會是新球季開賽前的有趣觀察點。 : 2006-07 Utah Jazz Training Camp Roster (略) (略) : Contact South Idaho Press sports editor Chuck Nunn at : [email protected] or feel free to blog this column : at www.southidahopress.com. : http://www.southidahopress.com/articles/2006/09/30/sports/local/jazzsess.txt 南依達荷報運動總邊Chuck Nunn的聯方式： [email protected] 或是到www.southidahopress.com的 http://www.southidahopress.com/articles/2006/09/30/sports/;ocal/jazzsess.txt 之處盡情發表評論 --
