1. What's the scariest thing -- good or bad -- about the Thunder? 1. 雷霆最令人害怕的東西是什麼？不管是好的害怕還是壞的。 D.J. Foster, ClipperBlog: Scott Brooks. He's made progress in a lot of areas, but can you really trust him not to play Kendrick Perkins 23 minutes a game like he did in last year's series loss to Memphis? Will he rely too heavily on Derek Fisher? With OKC, there's always the fear that one of the league's most talented rosters won't be fully maximized when it matters most. D.J. Foster： Brooks教頭。教練其實已經進步很多了，但別忘了上季對熊熊季後系列賽時他讓臭臉一場比賽平均打不到23分鐘，你還能信任他嗎？此外Brooks是不是對老漁太有愛了呢？對於雷雷來說，最令人害怕的事就是Brooks教頭沒有辦法好好掌握在聯盟中數一數二天分洋溢的雷霆陣容。 Andrew Han, ClipperBlog: Last name Durant. First name Kevin. The 25-year-old Thunder superstar just locked up another scoring title while posting a career high in assist percentage. But more than anything, Durant is less willing to settle for jumpers, in particular the 2-point variety. When the presumptive MVP is making a concerted effort to get to the rim, get to the line and fire away from deep, could there be anything more frightening for an opponent? Andrew Han：這個東西姓杜蘭名凱文。25歲的雷霆超級巨星才剛剛拿下另一個得分王並同時擁有生涯新高的助攻率。但最重要的，鐵杜不再只是在三分線內拿球就射。這位準 MVP能持續進攻籃框，上罰球線，同時能在三分線外開火，沒有任何比這更能讓對手害怕的事了。 Kevin Pelton, ESPN Insider: Their perimeter defense. When Oklahoma City is locked in, its athleticism can swallow up offenses, choking them of open looks beyond the 3-point line. But too often during the second half of the season, that level of effort has been missing, and even Memphis -- with Mike Miller playing a big role -- can make them pay for that. Kevin Pelton：雷霆的外線防守。當本季剛開始的時候，雷霆用勁爆的體能讓外線射手們窒息。但下半季常常看到雷霆對外線防守漫不經心。即使是灰熊也可以讓雷霆付出代價，別忘了，有一個人叫Mike Miller。 Brian Windhorst, ESPN.com: The score and time almost don't matter. When you have Durant, anything is possible. Because of his incredible scoring ability and the difficulty even contesting his shots, leads are just not safe. He's one of the handful of players in the league who can carry a team to a playoff series win. Brian Windhorst：不管雷霆在剩幾秒時落後幾分都沒關係。當你隊上有一個人叫阿杜時，什麼都是可能的。因為阿杜超強的得分能力以及防守他的難度，就算能領先雷霆也沒有人能感到安心。阿杜是聯盟中屈指可數可以一個人就讓一隻球隊贏的系列賽的球員。 Royce Young, Daily Thunder: Kevin Durant. He might not like his nickname -- the Slim Reaper -- but it's pretty fitting because that's the kind of terror he puts in opposing teams. There's no defensive strategy for him except for "hope he misses." Royce Young：當然是阿杜啦！阿杜可能不喜歡他的綽號”收割機”，但看看對手所感受到的恐懼，這實在太適合他了。除了祈禱他投不進外，沒有別的防守策略了。 2. What's the scariest thing -- good or bad -- about the Grizzlies? 2. 那灰熊最令人害怕的事情是什麼勒？ Foster: Tayshaun Prince. He was legitimately one of the worst offensive players in the league this season (43.8 true shooting percentage, 8.2 PER), but his defensive reputation might keep his playing time too high. Considering that the Grizzlies are 6.4 points better per 100 possessions with James Johnson on the floor, that's a scary proposition. Foster：小王子。因為他這個球季根本就是聯盟最爛的進攻球員 (43.8 真實命中率， 8.2 PER)。但因為他防守能力太有名，他可能還是會上場很久。考量到改用James Johnson平均能讓灰熊在每一百次球權中多得6.4分，讓小王子打這麼久真是個糟糕的決定。 Han: What isn't intimidating about the Grizzlies? Their motto is Grit 'n' Grind. The face of their team is the ever imposing Zach Randolph. Heck, even their arena is nicknamed "The Grindhouse," where opposing teams' dreams go to die. A key reason title contenders were reluctant to face Memphis is that even if they felt comfortable in the matchup, everyone was aware that it would be a slogging, exhausting rock fight. Even their losses are taxing. Han：誰能不怕灰熊？別忘了他們的格言就是"咬牙切齒的輾過你"。Z-BO的臉就代表他們球隊的臉。靠，而且他們的球場就叫"輾過你之屋"，是個摧毀對手夢想的地方。為什麼冠軍爭奪隊們都不想碰到灰熊？因為就算他們覺得灰熊不是對手，每個人都還是知道對上灰熊的每場比賽都會是痛苦，精疲力盡的。就算灰熊輸了，他也會讓你累死。 Pelton: The answer to this question is, and will always be, Zach Randolph. While the Thunder did a good job defending Randolph in the season series, holding him to 37.1 percent shooting, he remains frightening for all opponents. Pelton：這個問題的答案永遠是Z-BO！雖然雷霆在季賽時成功的防守Z-BO並讓他只有37.1 的命中率，Z-BO永遠會讓對手相當害怕。 Windhorst: Their experience. This a team that is built for the playoffs with their size and defensive grit, and this core has slayed several giants over the last few years. They will have no fear and they have enough battle scars that it will be tough to rattle them. Windhorst：他們的經驗。這隻球隊就是為了季後賽而生，他們擁有體型和防守拚勁。靠著這點，他們這幾年摧毀了很多冠軍爭奪者。他們不會害怕，而且他們擁有足夠的經驗。你別想看到他們驚慌失措。 Young: Randolph and Gasol. Did you know the Grizzlies are 40-19 with Marc Gasol in the lineup? Defensively, they're on another level with their starting center, and not just that, his high-low passing to Zach Randolph and ability to take pressure off his interior buddy make the Grizzlies the matchup nightmare they always intend to be. Young：內線雙塔。你知道灰熊有小Gasol時戰績是40-19嗎？小Gasol不但把灰熊帶到另一個境界，他與Z-BO高低位的搭配以及他吸怪的能力讓Z-BO能大殺四方。這對對手來說絕對是一場惡夢 3. Who's the biggest X factor in this series? 3. 誰在這系列賽中是最大的X因子呢？ Foster: Mike Miller. Even though he shockingly managed to play in all 82 games this year, this is where he'll make his money. Oklahoma City is extremely susceptible to giving up open 3s, as they ranked 27th in made 3-point field goals allowed this season. Gasoline, meet fire: Miller is hitting 45.9 percent from deep this year and has historically torched OKC. Foster： Mike Miller. 先告訴你一個驚人的事，他今年竟然82場比賽全勤。但除此之外，季後賽才正是能顯示他重要性的時候。雷霆最出名的就是會輕易的讓對手有空檔的三分出手，今年雷霆在讓對手投進的三分數上排名是第27名。碰！Miller今年的三分命中率高達45.9%，而且在以往對戰雷霆時，Miller總是會讓雷霆相當難過。 Han: Mike Miller. One of the recurring issues for the Grizzlies the past few seasons has been their inability to space the floor for their duo, Randolph and Marc Gasol. Enter Miller, who is shooting a career high from deep. If he, Courtney Lee and Mike Conley can nail their open 3s, it offers a dimension to the Grizzlies' offense that they've never been afforded before and can provide enough firepower to complement their typically stalwart defense. Han：Mike Miller再一票。灰熊前幾季最大的問題就是他們雖然擁有黑白雙熊，外線火力欠佳而導致空間無法拉開。這就是Miller加入的原因，而且他今年三分命中率是生涯最高。如果Miller, Lee, Conley都能發揮三分外線的能力，他們的進攻將會更加多元，同時也能使他們堅強的防守更能發揮效果。 Pelton: Dave Joerger. The first-year head coach was able to guide Memphis to the playoffs after a slow start and Marc Gasol's injury, but now the pressure increases exponentially. Can Joerger manage his wing rotation to keep shooters on the floor and minimize the impact of Tayshaun Prince? Pelton：Dave Joerger。這位灰熊的新教頭成功的在開季的跌跌撞撞與Gasol受傷後把球隊帶入季後賽，但考驗現在才正要開始。Joerger有沒有辦法控制他的鋒線球員輪替，使的球隊不會因為Prince而喪失外線火力呢？ Windhorst: Mike Miller. When he's on from the outside -- and he has been lately -- the Grizzlies are a different offensive team. Miller always seems to be able to get open, especially with so much attention on Zach Randolph and Marc Gasol. The Thunder, by the way, probably still have nightmares about the last time they saw Miller in the playoffs, when he was making seven 3-pointers in Game 5 of the 2012 Finals. Windhorst：Mike Miller又一票。當他站在外線(而且他最近常出現在那)，灰熊的進攻就完全不一樣了。Miller每次都能讓自己有大空檔，尤其是當黑白雙熊吸引了大部分的防守者注意力。另外，我想雷霆不會忘記2012年總冠軍賽第五場時Miller射進的那七顆三分球。 Young: Russell Westbrook. The Grizzlies beat the Thunder in five games last season, and it was pretty obvious why. Durant was operating alone, and that swarming Memphis defense double-, triple- and quadruple-teamed him. Westbrook in two games against the Grizzlies this season: 24.0 points on 58.3 percent shooting, 7.5 assists and two wins. Young: Russ。我想上一季為什麼雷霆會五場就被灰熊做掉的原因是很清楚的。阿杜只能自幹，然後就被灰熊球員蜂擁而上，包夾，三夾，四夾。Russ這個球季對戰灰熊的成績是這樣的：24分，58.3%命中率，7.5次助攻，更重要的，兩場勝利。 ________________________________________ 4. What's one BOLD prediction for this series? 4. 燈燈，來為這個系列賽做個大膽的猜測吧！ Foster: Kevin Durant averages less than 25 points a game over the whole series. Memphis has an excellent stable of wing defenders (Tony Allen, Courtney Lee, Tayshaun Prince, James Johnson) to rotate on to the probable MVP, and Russell Westbrook certainly won't be shy about shooting in his playoff return. Foster：阿杜平均將會拿不到25分。灰熊的鋒線防守太優秀了，Tony Allen， Lee， Prince會輪流伺候這位準MVP。另外，在上季缺席季後賽後，Russ絕對不會手下留情，我們會看到他大開殺戒。 Han: Mike Conley will be the second-best player on the court after Durant. Conley has made waves for himself this season, forced to carry the offensive load during the stretch when Gasol was injured. He's become a more aggressive player for it, taking career highs in 3-point and free throw attempts. Did the All-Star snub motivate Conley? Possibly, but the audience benefits in a point guard showdown between Conley and Russell Westbrook. Han：Conley會是場上表現僅次於阿杜的球員。Conley這季表現很好，當Gasol受傷時承擔了球隊的進攻擔子。他成為了一個更有侵略性的球員，在三分出手和罰球數上都是生涯新高。這可能都起因於他沒有被選進明星賽。不管怎樣，觀眾們可以期待Russ和Conley的頂尖對決。 Pelton: At least one game comes down to Kevin Durant attempting a shot to win or lose as the buzzer sounds. Pelton：有一場比賽會由KD投Buzzer Beater來決定比賽的勝負。 Windhorst: Mike Conley will outplay Russell Westbrook in several games. Conley is one of the most underrated players in the league. He had a couple of huge games in the series against the Thunder last season, albeit while Westbrook was out. Windhorst：Conley會在某幾場比賽中表現的比Russ更好。Conley是這個聯盟中最被低估的球員之一。上一季對雷霆的季後賽中Conley在幾場比賽中表現驚人，雖然那時Russ不在。 Young: Westbrook will lead OKC in scoring. Durant scores 25 in his sleep, but the Grizzlies are likely going to try to make Westbrook beat them, hoping he'll play out of control and reckless. Durant has proved himself to be a far better creator and passer, and Westbrook will have opportunities to go on the attack. Young：Russ會是雷霆的得分王。KD就算睡覺也能得到25分左右，但灰熊會想辦法讓Russ 主導雷霆攻勢，希望他失控。KD今年證明了他是個比大家想像中還好的進攻組織者，Russ 將能把更多的心力放在進攻籃框上。 ________________________________________ 5. Who wins this series and in how many games? 5. 預測一下系列賽的結果吧！ Foster: The Grizzlies are 40-19 this year with Marc Gasol in the lineup. If he had been healthy the whole season, Memphis would be hosting a playoff series right now. Point being, this is no ordinary first-round 2-7 mismatch. Memphis will push Oklahoma City to seven games, but the Thunder will ultimately prevail. Foster：今年Gasol在陣中時，灰熊戰績是40-19。如果他一整季都是健康的，灰熊現在應該會在季後賽有主場優勢。也就是說，這不是個一般的第二種子和第七種子的對決，灰熊會把戰線拉到第七場，但雷霆終究會獲得勝利。 Han: Oklahoma City in seven. I'm mostly reminded of the 2011 second-round series between these two teams: Memphis swiped the first game, and the two alternated victories until the Thunder were finally able to double up their wins in games 4 and 5. The Grizzlies' swagger is back, a team that's been in playoff mode since Jan. 1. So they fear no one in the association. Still, Oklahoma City has Durant. Han：雷霆在第七場拿到勝利。我想起2011年這兩隊的第二輪系列賽：灰熊贏得第一場，接下來兩隊輪流獲勝，但雷霆終究在第四第五場拿到連續勝利。灰熊回來了，他們從今年開始就進入了季後賽模式。他們不怕聯盟中的任何一隊。但，雷霆有一個人叫KD。 Pelton: Oklahoma City in six games, perhaps on that Durant game winner in the finale. Pelton：雷霆六場獲勝，KD可能會在最後一場投進一顆致勝球。 Windhorst: Thunder in six. The Thunder at full power are hard to handle, but I expect this to be a seesaw battle. Windhorst：雷霆六場獲勝。火力全開的雷霆是很難阻擋的，但我認為這仍然會是個勢均力敵的系列賽。 Young: Thunder in five. The Grizzlies present matchup issues, but OKC's biggest issue the last month has been defensive inconsistency. And the Grizzlies don't intend to outscore people. The Thunder went 3-1 against Memphis this season -- the one loss didn't feature Westbrook -- and with OKC healthy, the Grizzlies just can't keep up. Young：雷霆五場獲勝。灰熊不是個容易解決的對手，但雷霆最大的問題是防守上的無法連貫，但進攻似乎不是灰熊的優勢。雷霆今年對戰灰熊紀錄是3-1，輸的那場Russ還不在。灰熊不是全員健康雷霆的對手。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 122.146.84.72 ※ 文章網址: http://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Thunder/M.1397812983.A.144.html
