[外電] 眾家媒體給的選秀評價

7. Minnesota (from Portland via Boston): Randy Foye, PG, Villanova
第七順位、明尼蘇達灰狼(波特蘭拓荒者與波士頓塞爾提克交易得手後再轉給灰狼)：
畢業於維拉諾瓦大學，主打控衛的R.Foye
The T-Wolves originally chose Brandon Roy at No. 6, but traded
his rights to Portland for Foye and cash considerations. Although
Foye isn't the prototypical point, he's someone that the T-Wolves
believe can fix the error made when Chauncey Billups was dealt.
灰狼原本以第六順位選擇了B.Roy，但即刻將與他簽約的權利交易至波特蘭換取Foye以
及些許現金。儘管Foye不是一個純種控衛，他仍是灰狼相信足以修正槍蜥被交易時所造成
的錯誤的人選。
Grade(評價) B-
36. Minnesota (from Boston): Craig Smith, SF, Boston College
第三十三順位、明尼蘇達灰狼(由波士頓塞爾提克交易而來)：
畢業於波士頓學院，主打小前鋒的C.Smith
Smith is undersized and seems to lack the perimeter game to be a
factor in the league. However, he has dominated in spite of his
detractions, which makes him a desirable commodity.
Smith是一個身材較一般水準而言較小且缺乏中距離能力導致可能無法在聯盟中成為要
角的新秀，不過他仍克服身材劣勢，對於禁區內的攻守有一定的掌握度，那使得他有機會
成為一個理想的板凳球員。
Grade(評價) B
57. Minnesota (from Phoenix): Loukas Mavrokefalidis, C, PAOK (Greece)
第五十七順位、明尼蘇達灰狼(自鳳凰城太陽交易而來)：
希臘籍，主打中鋒的L.Mavrokefalidis
Mavrokefalidis averaged over 15 points per game in the Greek first
division before turning 21, so like Bargnani, he's a foreign product
who has already proven himself against solid competition.
Mavrokefalidis在邁入21歲前於希臘第一級男子籃球聯盟平均每場比賽可獲得超過15
分的分數，所以就像狀元A.Bargnani一樣，他屬於一個已經證明自己有能力在激烈比賽中
生存的舶來品。

Minnesota
The T-Wolves get one of the handful of players who will be an impact rookie
next season. Randy Foye gets to play with Kevin Garnett, which should also
help his game. Foye is accustomed to adversity, so he will handle himself
well as Minnesota figures out its direction.
明尼蘇達灰狼：
灰狼獲得了數個下球季將有機會成為一個具有震撼力的新秀中的其中一個，R.Foye將
和應該也能幫助他盡速融入比賽的狼王KG一起打球。Foye已經很習慣面對挫折，所以他在
灰狼重建這段時期將能管理好自己的情緒。

Minnesota Timberwolves
First round (6 from Portland): Randy Foye, G, 6-4, 215, Villanova
Second round (36): Craig Smith, F, 6-7, 250, Boston College
Second round (37): traded to Philadelphia.
Second round (57): Loukas Mavrokefalidis, C, 6-11, 260, PAOK (Greece)
明尼蘇達灰狼
第一輪(以第六順位向波特蘭拓荒者換來)：畢業於維拉諾瓦大學，6呎4吋，215磅的後
衛R.Foye
第二輪(第三十六順位)：畢業於波士頓學院，6呎7吋，250磅的前鋒C.Smith
(第三十七順位)：交易至費城七六人
(第五十七順位)：希臘籍，6呎11吋，260磅的中鋒L.Mavrokefalidis
The skinny: The Timberwolves may have solved their problem of finding a
partner for Kevin Garnett in the person of Foye. Compared to Dwyane Wade
for his skills and leadership, he'll help their pathetic backcourt; and
after four years in the Big East, Smith may have the maturity and skill
to help add some much-needed toughness up front. They've still got a long
way to go to get back in the hunt, but this is a start.
評語：
灰狼可能已經找到了為KG找一個伙伴這個問題的解答，這個人就是R.Foye。他的技
巧及領袖氣質足以跟甫出爐的總冠軍賽最有價值球員典韋相比擬，他將能幫助灰狼貧瘠的
後場。在大東聯盟待了四年後，C.Smith的成熟度及技巧可能足以讓灰狼前場變得強硬一些
。他們想要重返總冠軍的競爭者行列還有很長一段路要走，但這已經是個開端。

Minnesota Timberwolves
明尼蘇達灰狼
Randy Foye (#7)
Craig Smith (#36)
Loukas Mavrokefalidis (#57)
第七順位 R.Foye
第三十六順位 C.Smith
第五十七順位 L.Mavrokefalidis
Randy Foye is really a hit-or-miss draft prospect. He has been used to
playing the shooting guard and even the small forward position, but does
not have a lot of experience playing the point guard spot, which is where
he is expected to play in the NBA. That said, if Foye can prove that he
is a legitimate point guard, he has the power and prowess to kill opposing
guards physically.
R.Foye真的是灰狼見招拆招式的選秀策略下選進的新秀，他過去主要擔任得分後衛的
腳色，有時甚至還會向上打到小前鋒的位置，但卻沒有很多擔當控衛的經驗，而控衛才是
普遍認為他應該在聯盟中所主打的位置。那意味著，如果Foye能證明自己是個合格的控衛
，他擁有的力量和超凡技術就可以幹掉對方的後衛。
Craig Smith was one of my favorite college players, but he is simply a
workhorse. Smith practices every day and shoots 500 shots from around
the 15-foot range, where he is just about flawless.
C.Smith是我最喜歡的學院球員之一，因為他是個苦幹實幹型的球員。他每天都認真訓
練，而且從距離籃框15呎的位置練投500球，藉以改善他中距離能力不佳的弱點。
Loukas Mavrokefalidis’s name is too hard for me to pronounce or spell,
let alone provide insight for.
L.Mavrokefalidis的名字對我來說連發音或拼寫都太困難，更不用說要提供評論了。
