[選秀]Perry Jones III:鑽石或是瓦礫?
by Chad Ford, ESPN
Is Perry Jones III going to be a superstar or a dud? That's the question
many NBA GMs are pondering right now.
Perry Jones三世究竟會成為超級球星或者無三小路用,現在很多球探都想知道。
Given his A-plus talent and C-minus motor … your guess is as good as any.
考量他A+等級的天分與C-等級的打球動力,兩者皆有可能。
His draft stock has been falling all year as fed-up scouts and GMs feel
that he's out of excuses.
隨著對他失望的球探跟總管們覺得他已沒有藉口好找,PJIII的選秀價值下滑。
But there is an interesting subtext to the Jones debate. Are we looking
at his game the wrong way? Maybe the reason he struggles to dominate is
because he's being asked to play out of position.
但圍繞著他的爭論裡仍有一點值得討論:有沒有可能大家解讀PJIII球賽的角度都有
誤?也許他宰制力不足的原因是被安排在失當的位置上?
"He really has the game of a 2-guard or a small forward," one respected
NBA GM told ESPN.com. "Baylor used him as a center for the past two years,
so you rarely got to see him comfortable. It's like, what if UConn had tr
-ied to play Rudy Gay at the 5? I think people would've had a very different
opinion of him on draft night."
「他有道地的得分後衛或小前鋒的打法」一位廣受尊敬的總管這麼說「兩年來貝勒
大學把他當中鋒用。就好像假使康乃狄克大學拿Rudy Gay打中鋒會如何?我想等到
選秀那晚人們將對PJIII大大改觀」。
Jones has frustrated scouts since his high school days. He's always had
the requisite size, length and athleticism to be an NBA stud. He also has
had a fairly advanced perimeter game for a while. He can handle the ball
and break guys down off the dribble and has a solid jump shot. He has alw
-ays been the team's most willing passer. Had Scott Drew let him run the
point, would things have been different?
PJIII表現不如預期早在高中就開始了。他有足以在NBA安身立命的體型、身高和機動
力,外圍火力一度還有顯著進步。他能用運球技術或犀利跳投打敗防守者,一直以來
也都是全隊最不吝於分享球的選手。倘若Scott Drew教頭讓它控球,情況會有所不同
嗎?
Scouts have focused on Jones' perceived lack of toughness. He doesn't block
shots. He shies away from contact. He floats a lot out on the perimeter.
It's rare to see him aggressively take control in the paint. Those are all
things that elite 4s do in college. But if he's a wing? The standard may be
just a little bit different.
球探聚焦於PJIII的「不夠硬」,他不太蓋鍋、迴避肢體碰撞、喜歡外圍遊走,鮮少看
見積極打進籃下控制禁區,上述都是大學頂級PF的責任……但假設他是側翼呢,標準
恐怕要另外訂。
So what is he? I spoke with an NBA scout last year who had an interesting
take. He said NBA scouts should quit trying to project what a player should
be and focus on scouting a player based on what the player thinks he is.
So,PJIII究竟是?去年某位球探在跟我對談中提出有趣的論點:NBA球探該停止去預
設球員該成為那個位置,而是以球員認定自己該是哪個位置的角度來觀察。
"Players are who they think they are, not who you think they are," the scout
said. "Perry Jones thinks like a point guard, not a big man. That's where
his heart is. Embrace that and he's going to be amazing. Fight it and he
could be a huge disappointment."
「球員呈現的是他心裡描繪的自己,而非外人給他的框架,PJIII認為自己是個PG,不
算長人,此為他本心所在,能擁抱其本心則強悍,與其抗拒則帶來巨大失落」。
A year and a few months later and that's where we are. Draft Jones as a dom
-inant 4 man who will defend, make a living in the paint and outwork the
next guy and you're setting yourself up for disappointment. Let him play
like Rudy Gay, give him the ball on the wing and let him create and he might
just surprise you.
這段談話距今已一年多。想選進PJIII並期望他成為善守、在禁區討生活的硬派大前鋒
,那麼你恐怕要失望。讓他像Rudy Gay一般側翼持球,發揮其創意,也許能帶給你驚
喜。
We currently have Jones ranked No. 9 on our Big Board and have him going No.
12 to the Milwaukee Bucks in our Lottery Mock Draft. Both of those numbers
are probably close to his floor as an NBA prospect. If he has great workouts
and if a team with the right system is drafting above that, Jones could go
anywhere between 5 and 12 on draft night.
現階段PJIII在ESPN模擬選秀被預測為12順位中選,但如果他在試訓中有良好表現,再
搭配良好的戰術體系,他的順位不排除落在5~12名之間。
因為是ESPN Insider,所以就不貼來源了
※Perry Jones的總教練Scott Drew已證實他將投入本次選秀。
※雖然Chad Ford的模擬選秀要從樂透順位正式抽籤決定後,才慢慢有參考價值,
不過還是提一下他的Mock2.0版本騎士就是選到Perry Jones。
