[外電] 選秀前瞻: Meyers Leonard

So maybe the back-to- back first-round selections of centers Bill Wennington
and Uwe Blab didn't go as planned way back in 1985.
Long before Mark Cuban arrived on the scene, the Mavs' draft history -- any
history -- with centers has been mostly forgettable. As the summer begins to
heat up with the draft next week and free agency opening days later, Dallas'
center position is up in the air and potentially in dire need of
reinforcement.
就在Cuban的時代之前
小牛選秀進來的中鋒幾乎沒人記得他們是誰
(由此可見小牛隊史的中鋒都....不過今年到是出產了一個千萬級的中鋒 不過去尼克了)
今夏小牛的中鋒位置也非常需要補強
With Tyson Chandler long gone, Brendan Haywood an amnesty candidate
(particularly if Deron Williams signs) and Ian Mahinmi heading to free
agency, adding size in the middle will be critical to any chance to contend
next season. Not that a rookie will put this team over the top, but an
athletic big man that can provide rim protection and even score a bit around
the basket couldn't hurt the cause.
Here's a look at our next draft prospect:
MEYERS LEONARD
School: Illinois (2 years)
Position: C
Age: 20
Ht./Wt.: 7-foot-1/250
2011-12 stats: 13.6 ppg, 8.2 rpg, 1.9 bpg
Why he would fit: One the Mavs' top needs is size in the paint to protect the
rim -- as the Oklahoma City Thunder greatly exposed in the first round -- and
rebound. Leonard, unlike some big men drafted by Dallas over the years, is
not a lead-foot and he could prove to be a strong complement alongside Dirk
Nowitzki, not unlike Chandler.
Why he would fit: 小牛急迫需要在盡區保護籃框的力量
在今年第一輪就嚴重暴露中樞疲軟的問題
Leonard不像小牛以往選中的軟趴趴又跳不高中鋒
會是Dirk內線的好搭檔 就像Tyson Chandler那樣
Why he wouldn't fit: He could well be snapped up earlier in the draft. Buzz
is surrounding the Milwaukee Bucks with the No. 12 pick after they traded
Andrew Bogut to the Golden State Warriors.
Why he wouldn't fit:
很現實的問題...最近Leonard的身價暴漲 非常可能在17順位以前就被選走
有消息稱握有12號籤的公鹿交易掉Bogut之後會選他
Chad Ford's thumbs up, thumbs down: Up -- Long, athletic big man ... Runs the
floor well ... Quick for a big guy ... Solid scorer around the basket ...
Very good defensive presence in the post ... Good rebounder and shot blocker.
Down -- A raw offensive player ... Needs more focus and concentration ...
Needs to add strength.
Chad Ford's thumbs up, thumbs down
Up:
標準中鋒身高且具有運動能力
運球不錯
以長人來說算是敏捷
在籃框附近取分把握度穩
油漆區的防守也出色, 籃板跟火鍋都沒問題
Down:
進攻技巧不夠純熟
必須提升專注力
需要加強力量
Coop's comment: Not sure if he’s going to be available to Dallas at 17 as he
seems to have made the biggest move post-combine. There’s a lot of Tyson
Chandler in his game. He’s a legit 7-1 that can run the floor, has a nice
touch and is a very good roller in the pick-and-roll game. Obviously he’s
raw, much more so than Tyler Zeller, but if you’re willing to wait on him,
he might wind up being the better of the two.
Coop's comment: 不確定在17順位還看不看得到他
在新秀試訓開始之後 他的身價不斷提升
他的比賽風格很像Tyson Chandler
貨真價實7呎1吋的身高 運球跟球感都好
檔拆能力也出色
但,很明顯他還需要更多磨練 尤其是和Tyler Zeller相比
不過要是你願意耐心培育他 他會成為比Zeller還要出色的球員
