Season Outlook
全季分析
2005-06 was, quite clearly, a tale of two seasons for the Sacramento Kings.
Celebrated for its fluid passing game in the early part of this decade,
Sacramento was a team entirely without an identity as it struggled to an 18-24
record during the first half of the season.
2005-06球季對國王而言，可以分成截然不同的兩個時期。跟前十年的流動順暢的比賽比
起來，國王在前半季打出了跌跌撞撞的18勝24敗戰績。
Then, the mercurial Ron Artest arrived on Jan. 26, in a trade for Peja
Stojakovic, and everything changed. After allowing 100.2 points per game
pre-Ron, the Kings gave up just 94.3 ppg after Artest brought his signature
brand of ferocious lockdown defense to Arco Arena. Newly defensive-minded,
Sacramento finished the season 26-14, and surprisingly extended the
defending-champion Spurs to six tough games in the playoffs.
然後，Ron Artest在1月26號加入了國王隊（跟Peja的交易），所有的事情也產生了變化，
在前阿泰時期，國王每場讓對手拿下100.2分，在阿泰帶來他兇狠的防守後，對手只能拿到
94.3分。在防守的加強後，Kings接下來的戰績是26勝14敗，而且在季後賽給了衛冕軍馬刺
六場艱難的比賽。
Sacramento will try to carry its second-half momentum into ’06-07 under the
leadership of a new head coach. Eric Musselman replaces Rick Adelman, who led
the Kings to the playoffs in each of his eight seasons – the only winning
seasons the franchise has enjoyed since it moved to Sacramento in 1985.
在新教練的帶領下。Sacramento將會試著讓自已在06-07年保持如前年下半季的火熱表現，
Eric Musselman取代了Rick Adelman這位連續八年將國王帶進季後賽的教練，（連八年）
也是國王自1985搬到Sacramento後最好的成績。
（這裡翻的感覺怪怪的，有錯請指正<(__ __)>）
Musselman, who has a head-coaching record of 75-89 from two seasons in Golden
State, is known for his intensity, attention to detail and commitment to
defense. Kings co-owner Joe Maloof told ESPN.com that Musselman was a
“basketball-a-holic,” and said to the AP that “I know we're going to be
the best-prepared team in the league now.”
肌肉人曾帶過Golden State兩季，留下了75勝89敗的戰績，他最著名的就是對於小細節的
注意以及對於防守的要求。國王的老闆Joe Maloof告訴ESPN，肌肉人是個籃球狂熱份子，
而且說：「我們現在已經準備好要面對所有的比賽了。」
The major roster news of the summer is that the Kings could not come to terms
on a new contract with free agent Bonzi Wells, who was a huge factor in the
Spurs series, averaging 23.2 points and 12 rebounds on .609 shooting. Instead,
Sacramento signed John Salmons away from the 76ers. Salmons, who scored 7.5 ppg
last season, will need to step up his game to fill Wells’s shoes, though the
Kings expect talented young shooting guard Kevin Martin to play a larger role
as well.
對國王而言，夏季最重要的消息就是不能簽下Bonzi Wells，這個在對上馬刺時發瘋的傢伙
（平均23.2分12籃板外帶六成命中率），但他們從七六人簽來了John Salmons取代他的位
置（上季平均7.5分），不過看來John Salmons需要很多努力，而國王也希望Kevin Martin
這個帥哥分衛能比上季更猛。
Mike Bibby is the team’s mainstay, the only player remaining from the 2002
Western Conference finalists. The veteran point guard - who averaged a
career-high 21.1 points, as well as 5.4 assists, last season – will be
expected to lead the offense once again.
Mike Bibby是這支隊伍的主將，也是在2002西區冠軍戰陣容中唯一留在國王的傢伙，這個
有經驗的控衛在上季拿到了生涯新高的平均21.1分外帶5.4個控攻，而他在這一季也將帶領
國王隊的進攻。
Inside, the Kings will rely mainly on a trio of veterans, Brad Miller, Shareef
Abdur-Rahim and Kenny Thomas. Undrafted rookie Louis Amundson turned heads with
his energetic play at summer league; Maloof says he thinks the kid will not
only make the team, but possibly play.
在禁區中，國王會需要他們的三壯士Brad Miller、Shareef Abdur-Rahim和Kenny Thomas
。未經選秀加入的新人Louis Amundson在夏季聯盟展現了他的活力，Maloof說他認為這小
子很不錯。
（not only make the team, but possibly play?）
To stay in the playoff hunt against the many deep teams in the Western
Conference, the Kings will need contributions all the way down its roster.
The team will look for improvement on the perimeter from backup point Jason
Hart, and their last two first-round picks, Francisco Garcia (2005) and Quincy
Douby (2006).-- Mark Haubner
在西區要進季後賽得很努力解決你的競爭對手，國王隊需要凝聚全隊的力量，替補控衛
Jason Hart和這兩年的第二輪選秀Francisco Garcia和Quincy Douby的進步將是國王隊想
要的。
