新聞出處(必填):http://celticshub.com/2011/12/02/3-on-3-ray-allen/ 作者:Hayes Davenport Ray Allen is the greatest long-range shooter of all-time, and yet he’s universally understood to be number three in the Big Three org chart. He’s the oldest, the slowest, and the shakiest on defense, but also arguably the most reliable of the bunch: Ray’s sat a total of seven games over the last three seasons, and his shooting stats have barely wavered since he arrived in Boston. As he enters his walk year, it’s time to start asking how much more the Celtics can ask of Ray Allen, who might be aging better than any guard in the NBA before him. Ray Allen一直是最偉大的遠距離射手,可他一直被認定為三巨頭的老三。他是三巨頭當中年紀最老,速度最慢,防守最不穩定的一個,但卻也是最可靠的一個. 過去三年他只缺席過7場比賽,而且他的投籃數據自從來到Boston後幾乎沒有退步過當他進入了職業生涯後期,是該問問Celtics,還要要求這位現役中最好的老將做些什麼了 1. Ray is 36 years old. How much longer will he play in the NBA? Ryan DeGama: Until the next labor dispute? No reason to think Allen can’t make it through six more years considering he set career highs in FG% and 3P% last season and his primary offensive responsibilities are now run, catch and release. Like Paul Pierce, Allen’s proving a role model on how to age gracefully in the NBA. They’re going to write books about him. Or blog posts, at least. Brendan Jackson: At least to 40. His days of being a starting shooting guard are already numbered, but his ability on the offensive end was still as high as ever last season. When I say “ability,” I mean two things: spot up shooting and running his defender off picks. The value of Allen’s ability to tire out his opponent cannot be understated. I’m excited to see his role eventually change to perennial Sixth Man of the Year. Brian Robb: At least three more seasons. Allen is a specimen who takes great pride in maintaining his body. He also is still putting up the best shooting numbers of his career, to help counter other areas of the game that have suffered with his advanced age. With that said, there will always be a market for pure outside shooting in this league, and despite a track record of 35 year-old shooting guards showing sharp declines in their shooting numbers, Allen is the clear exception to that rule. I give him three more seasons, and I wouldn’t be surprised even if he makes it past that. 1. Ray已經36歲了,他還能在NBA打多久? Ryan DeGama: 打到下一次勞資糾紛?考慮到上季Allen刷新了職業生涯的投籃和三分命中率,沒有理由不相信他還能再打6個賽季,現在Allen的打法就是跑位,接球,出手.跟Paul Pierce一樣,Allen 詮釋了一個老將如何在NBA優雅的打球,他們可能會寫一本關於他的書. Brendan Jackson: 至少能到40歲.或許身為得分後衛他將離開先發位置的日子不遠了,但他依舊能在進攻端保持跟上個賽季一樣高效率的能力.我所說的"能力"包含兩個意思:定點跳投和透過跑動擺脫他的防守者,Allen可以擺脫防守者的價值,這個能力不能被低估.我很興奮能看到Allen改變角色,成為最佳第六人的那天. Brian Robb: 至少能再打三個賽季,Allen應該對身體的保養這件事感到自豪,他依然能保持職業生涯最佳的投籃,來彌補年齡所帶給他其他部分的退化.外線射手在聯盟裡總能找到市場,儘管35歲的得分後衛很難維持他們的出手數,但Allen顯然是個意外,我給他至少三年的時間,而且就算超過三年我也絕不會驚訝. 2. At this point in his career, do Ray’s offensive contributions outweigh his defensive shortcomings? Ryan DeGama: Yes. Now the caveat: We all know what Ray’s shooting does to open up the floor, but his lack of shot-creating ability is increasingly a concern in Boston’s middling offense. The caveat to that caveat is that his defense is better than advertised; you can still trust his intensity defending guys like Wade and Kobe in the playoffs. Brendan Jackson: For sure. I am just not sure how long those defensive shortcomings can remain in the starting lineup. At the same time, Allen’s defensive shortcomings are overstated. To be fair, everyone looks terrible guarding Dwyane Wade. Brian Robb: Yes. Again, while Allen struggles with a lot more of the athletic players in the NBA, he still works hard most nights on the defensive end and does well within Boston’s defensive philosophy given his limitations. Sure, he’ll look bad on occasion, but the C’s still ranked near the top of the league in defensive efficiency last year and Allen was on the floor for a lot of those minutes. On the other side, the C’s have struggled to put the ball in the basket the last few seasons, making Allen an even more valuable commodity to them given their lack of reliable outside shooters. The C’s have to hope this trend continues this year. 2.在他職業生涯的這一刻,他的進攻貢獻能大於他的防守上的缺陷嗎? Ryan DeGama: 是的,我提醒一下.我們都知道Ray的投籃很準,但是缺少創造進攻機會這件事將會是Celtics 越來越嚴重的問題,Allen的防守沒有傳說中的那麼糟糕,你仍然可以相信他在季後賽能夠防守像是Kobe或是Wade這些球員. Brendan Jackson: 當然,我現在只是不知道他的防守劣勢將在什麼時候影響到他的先發位置,但是他的防守缺點被誇大了,說句公道話:大家都很難守住Dwyane Wade Brian Robb: 是的,再強調一次,在眾多的球員當中,他是一個很認真防守和融入球隊防守體系的球員. 當然,他的防守有時候很糟糕,但是Celtics上季的防守效率依然是名列前茅,而大部分的時間Allen都在場上.另一方面,Celtics在過去幾個賽季都為得分這件事感到掙扎.而Allen 對他們而言是最可靠的外線,C's希望這種良好趨勢可以繼續下去 3. Assuming he doesn’t decline much from last year, what kind of contract would you give Ray to resign with the Celtics after this season? Ryan DeGama: Something along the lines of 2 years for $12M (total) sounds about right, but that might not be enough to lure him back, assuming there’s even a fit in Boston. He’ll have plenty of suitors and the Celtics may go a different direction at the shooting guard and 6th man spots in the rebuild. Which makes this a good place to drop in an arbitrary Flo Allen reference. Enjoy her and Ray while you can. This could be their last go-round in Boston. Brendan Jackson: If Allen is going to sign with the Celtics again, he’s going to do so with the understanding that the majority of the cap room is going to the best player available. Whatever is left over will be allocated appropriately. Right now, it’s too hard to gauge Allen’s worth because it will fluctuate depending on who the Celtics’ main target is. Brian Robb: Probably the toughest question Ainge is facing at this point. In order to be able to add a major free agent after next season, Ainge will likely have to renounce both Garnett and Allen in order to have the cap flexibility to a big name such as Dwight Howard. The other real way of doing that, and also signing Allen would be for Ray to take a major discount, far below what he could get on the open market. If Ainge comes up empty on big free agency names, I see no problem with giving Ray another two-year deal (second year as option) for mid-level money (5-6 million), as long as his shooting numbers don’t drop too much. Both sides are clearly comfortable with each other, and might as well keep things going while they can, instead of bringing in younger but inferior talent 3.如果本賽季Ray的表現比起上賽季沒有太大的下降,明年安吉會給Ray多大的合同? Ryan DeGama: 應該依然是兩年1200萬的合約,不過如果有更好的地方可以去,這不一定能吸引Ray留下來. 應該會有很多球隊對Allen感興趣,而且Celtics可能會在重建時考慮其他的得分後衛或是第六人.考慮到這可能是對Ray最好的選擇,盡情的享受本賽季Ray的表現吧,因為這很有可能是Ray在Celtics的最後一年. Brendan Jackson: 如果Allen還打算跟Celtics續約的話,他必須了解Celtics會將薪資空間留給更好的球員, 剩餘的薪資空間一定會很僅剩的去分配,現在很難評估Allen帶給Celtics的價值,因為那要看下個賽季的Celtics主要目標是什麼 Brian Robb: 這點上可能是安吉要面對最棘手的一個問題,為了能夠在下個賽季有足夠的薪資空間簽下一個如同魔獸等級的球星,安吉可能會放棄跟KG和Ray續約,還有一種可能是用一個大折扣簽下Ray,但這一定會低於Allen的市場價值,但如果安吉在自由球員市場上一無所獲,那麼我看不出Ray有什麼問題會拿不到一個為期兩年的合同(第二年可以選擇跳出合同) 中產500~600萬只要他的投籃能力沒有大幅度的下降,雙方都清楚彼此的需求,不如就讓這種合作繼續下去,好過引進一個遜色的年輕人. -- 籃球真的是打了才知道 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 120.96.54.235 ※ 編輯: auron4041 來自: 120.96.54.235 (12/05 16:36)
