原文網址：Washington Post：http://tinyurl.com/7lae55g Thomas Robinson won't concede top spot, Wizards can go big at No. 3 By Michael Lee, Saturday, June 9, 8:48 AM CHICAGO — Thomas Robinson isn't willing to concede anything to Anthony Davis, even though he knows exactly what the New Orleans Hornets plan to do with the No.1 overall pick. T-Rob 覺得自己也值得成為狀元郎！ Robinson certainly respects Davis and all that he accomplished in his one season at Kentucky, but he still firmly believes that he is the best player in the June 28 NBA draft. When he heard that Davis arrived for his interview session this week wearing a T-shirt that read, "Check My Stats," Robinson laughed to himself and offered a rebuttal. T-Rob 絕對尊敬 Davis及其在肯塔基大學去年所完成的一切，但 T-Rob仍然認為自己才是 選秀會上的最佳新秀！當他聽說 Davis穿了件『查查數據吧』的踢恤參加了訪問，T-Rob 笑了並有話要說。 "If you want to check the stats, then I'd be the number one pick, easily. If that's what you want to do," Robinson, a consensus first-team all-American from Kansas, said with a laugh. “I should get one of those shirts. Get a shirt that say, ’Numbers don't lie.’" 「如果用數據來選擇，那我輕鬆就能成為選秀狀元」T-Rob，來自堪薩斯大學的全美第一 隊繼續笑著說：「我也該來一件上面寫著『數字不會騙人』的踢恤。」 Robinson said he picked up his competitive side while battling in the District — where backing down is not an option and showing respect is allowed but "not too much," he said — and that helped him rise from being an unheralded prospect, to a backup his first two years at Kansas, to now a top-five pick. 「在永不放棄和適度敬重的環境中展現競爭的一面」T-Rob 表示：「這也是幫助我從一個名 不見經傳的新秀成為頭兩年在堪薩斯的替補，再成為今年的前五新秀。」 "I'm a grown man. I don't feel that I should hide my thoughts. And I don't feel I'm saying anything wrong," Robinson said. "Anybody that competes in this game, most of them are probably not saying it, but I'm sure they feel that way. This draft is very deep with talent. It's a lot of guys that could be the number one pick. Anthony Davis is definitely worthy of the number one pick. We all know that. I don't want to get my words mixed up, but I compete, just like everyone else." 「我已經是個成熟的人，我不認為我該掩飾我的想法，我也不認為我有說錯什麼！」T-Rob 繼續說：「大部分新秀只是嘴巴上沒說，但心裡都是這樣想的。今年選秀有滿滿的天分， 有很多傢伙都夠格成為狀元，當然包括 Davis在內，誰不知道。我不想讓我的話被搞混， 但我像其他人一樣對抗。」 Washington could address their need for perimeter help with several talented wing players available to them at the No. 3 pick — including Kentucky's Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, Florida's Bradley Beal and North Carolina's Harrison Barnes — but the team has only two starting positions set with Nene and John Wall, giving the Wizards the flexibility to go in a number of directions. 巫師可以在選秀會上用第三順位滿足他們對外圍球員的需求，包括肯塔基的 MKG、 佛羅里達的Beal、北卡的 Barnes，但巫師的陣容只有 Wall跟 Nene是不動人選，也讓他們 的選擇性能夠更加靈活。 They have drafted three big men in the past two drafts — Kevin Seraphin, Trevor Booker and Jan Vesely — but Washington also has interest in the 21-year-old Robinson, arguably the most NBA-ready player expected to go early in the draft. The Wizards also could go even bigger with Connecticut freshman center Andre Drummond, an intriguing prospect who has considerable upside but remains a mystery. 過去兩年巫師選了三個長人：Seraphin、Booker、Vesely，但巫師還是對 T-Rob感興趣， 今年最接近 NBA-ready的高順位新秀。巫師也能挑更讓人摸不清能不能達到天花板的 Andre Drummond。 Robinson will work out for his hometown team on Tuesday at Verizon Center. He hasn't hidden his desire to play for the Wizards, but he won't be too upset if the Charlotte Bobcats take him second overall. He said he had been looking forward to his meeting with the Wizards on Thursday, when the two sides discussed his background and he let them know that he was willing to play whatever role they asked of him. T-Rob 將在週三於巫師主場替家鄉球隊試訓，他很想替巫師打球，但當榜眼也沒關係。 在期待中於週五與巫師球團會面，雙方談論了 T-Rob的背景，他也讓巫師知道他願意為 球隊扮演球場上任何角色。 "You're going to have distractions everywhere. This whole league is full of distractions. I'm not worried about that," Robinson said, when asked about playing in Washington, where he would be closer with his 9-year-old sister, Jayla. The siblings lost their mother, Lisa, to a heart attack last year. "It would be great to go back home and to hold my city down. To be back where it all started would be great for my family. I wouldn't have to move my family around a lot." 「到處都有讓你分心的事物，整個聯盟處處都是，但我並不擔心」當被問到在巫師打球， 將能讓他能就近照顧他九歲的妹妹 Jayla，這對兄妹去年因為心臟病發失去了母親， T-Rob 繼續說：「能回家打球會很讚，回到一切開始的地方對我的家人會很棒，我也不用 讓家人四處搬遷。」 Robinson averaged 17.7 points and 11.9 rebounds and posted 27 double-doubles while leading the Jayhawks to the championship game last season. He doesn't know exactly where he'll wind up, but the 6-foot-9 junior power forward said he would take note of the teams that overlook him. "I'm going to feel offended," Robinson said. "I'm going to go after every team I step on the floor against. It's not going to be a specific team that I go out and try to kill. I'm trying to kill everybody." T-Rob 去年繳出17.7分、11.9籃板、27次兩雙並帶領堪薩斯闖進冠軍賽。他不知道自己 最終的落點會在哪支球隊，但這個六尺九吋的大前鋒絕對記得那些跳過他的球隊。 他表示：「在球場上我試著幹掉每個對手，不是特定的球隊，而是每一個球隊。」 The 6-foot-10 Drummond doesn't have the same feisty attitude as Robinson, and his sometimes passive play during his one season at Connecticut raised questions about his motor and desire. Drummond, who is still projected to be a top-five pick, said the perception doesn't match the reality as it related to him. 六尺十吋的 Drummond態度並不像 T-Rob這般好勝心強烈，在康乃狄克一季中時而消極的 表現讓他的動力和求勝意志都得到質疑，儘管如此，Drummond 仍是預期中的前五新秀， 表示在他身上想法和現實並不盡然相符。 "I always have a smile on my face," said Drummond, who averaged 10 points and 7.6 rebounds last season. "Some people see me and say, ’He's too happy all the time. He's not really serious.’ But that's just the person I am." 「我總是掛著笑容」去年場均10分、7.6籃板的 Drummond說：「人們說我『總太過開心、 不夠把事情當一回事』，但我就是這樣一個人。」 Drummond brought his sense of humor to his interview with the Wizards, as he made a joke about the size of the contingent to start the meeting. He lost nearly 22 pounds in preparation for the draft — changing his diet to eliminate fast food, sodas and his main weakness, cookies — but still remains an imposing physical presence. Drummond 在與巫師面談展現了幽默感，以巫師球團代表人數開了個玩笑作為開場白。 為了準備選秀，他共減了22磅的體重（接近10公斤）— 藉由改變飲食：戒掉速食、汽水 及他的最大弱點：餅乾 — 但是體型仍然壯實。 Some scouts believe that he has the potential to blossom into a dominant big man in a league limited on quality size. Though he won't turn 19 until August, Drummond doesn't believe that the team that takes him will have to wait long for him to become a consistent contributor. 一些球探認為 Drummond有成為聯盟有宰治力的大個子，且他八月才將滿十九歲而已， Drummond 認為選他的球隊不用等他準備太久就能做出穩定貢獻。 "I feel when I come in, right from the jump, as soon as I get on the court, I'm going to work my hardest. Work my tail off on defense, grab a lot of rebounds, block some shots and try to put some points on the board," Drummond said. "It's going to be tough, to make that transition from college to the NBA and it's not too many people that can make that jump that easily. I'm not saying I'm going to come out there and have 30 and 15 every game. I'm saying I'm gong to do the best that I can." 「從開場開始，只要我一站上場，我一定會拿出真本事，力拼防守、拉一堆籃板、蓋些火鍋 再拿點分數」Drummond 繼續說：「從 NCAA到 NBA的轉換本來就很難，沒太多球員能輕鬆 適應。我並不是說每場要拿30分15籃板，我只想說我每場都會全力以赴。」 -- . . ╭─*.╮╭─*.╮╭*.─╮╭╮╭╮╭*.─╮╭──╮╭─╮╮ .﹨..∕. .╰╮╭╯│ ○ ││ ─┤*.╰╯││ ─┤│ *.│ ││ .-- ● --. ││ │╭╮││ ─┤╰╮╭╯│ ─┤│ ○ │*.╭ │ ^ ~ ^^ ~~^^ ~~ ╰╯ ╰╯╰╯╰──╯ ╰╯ ╰──╯╰──╯╰╯─╯ ^~~^^ ^^S N S D ~ ^~~^^ ^^~~ ^~~^^ ^^~~ ^~~^^ ^^~~ ^~ ψyihchyi ^^~ ^^ --
