: Wolves have work to do if they hope to retain big man Love

翻的不好請見諒
: BOSTON -- There is no style to Kevin Love's rebounding -- no flash, no flair.
: He doesn't yank down one-handed boards, doesn't elevate and catch them above
: the rim. He doesn't overpower anyone in the trenches either, not at a listed
: 6-foot-10 (yeah, right) and with a body that could use the Tony Horton
: treatment. For the 22-year-old Love, rebounding is a science, a mixture of
: technique, intelligence and tenacity that he has blended together to
: transform himself into the best rebounder in the league.
Love搶籃板的style與眾不同,對於Love來說,搶籃板是一門科學,融合了技巧、腦袋以
及不屈不撓的精神,這些讓他變成聯盟最會搶籃板的高手。
: Indeed, keeping Minnesota's Love off the glass has become a virtually
: impossible task. Big teams, small teams -- no one has had much success. He
: yanked down 31 rebounds against the Knicks in November on his way to becoming
: the first NBA player in 28 years to have a 30-point, 30-rebound game. About
: two weeks later, he grabbed 22 against San Antonio; three nights later, he
: grabbed another 22 against Golden State. He hasn't had a single-digit
: rebounding performance since before Thanksgiving, and his average (15.6) is
: more than two boards per game better than No. 2 on the list, Dwight Howard
: (13.2). In Monday's 96-93 loss to the Celtics, Love had more first-half
: rebounds (15) than everyone else combined, and he finished with 24 to go with
: 12 points. It marked his NBA-best 30th double-double and set a TD Garden
: record for most rebounds.
讓Love遠離籃板快要變成一種不可能的任務,不論對上高或矮的球隊,他都可以成功
抓下很多籃板。對尼克抓了31顆,成為近28年來第一位30-30的球員,接下來對馬刺
抓了22顆,對勇士也抓了22顆籃板。自從節前的比賽,Love的籃板就一直維持雙位數。
平均15.6的籃板成績,整整多了第二名的魔獸2個。在禮拜一對上超塞的比賽,半場抓了
15顆籃板比他隊友加起來都還多,最後拿下24板以及12分。這讓他完成本季第30次
double-double,NBA最佳,也成為TD Garden最多籃板的紀錄。
: "Guys like him," said Shaquille O'Neal, "come around once every 10 years."
歐肥說:這小子是個10年難得一見的人才阿!!
: Love is the franchise player the Timberwolves have sought since they shipped
: Kevin Garnett out of town in 2007. He has drawn comparisons to Dennis Rodman
: and Jayson Williams and, in fact, may be more skilled than both. He is years
: away from his prime and his developing offense -- his scoring (20.6 points
: per game) and three-point shooting (42.5 percent) have skyrocketed this
: season -- suggests the best is yet to come.
把KG交易出去之後,Love是灰狼尋覓的franchise player。他被拿來跟Rodman以及
Jayson Williams(前籃板王 前籃網明星球員)比較,不過Love比他們兩位更會得分。
20.6的平均得分以及42.5三分命中率,讓他進攻越來越多手段。
: The question is, Will those years come with the Wolves?
不過,Love會繼續待在灰狼隊嗎?
: It hasn't been a smooth two and a half years for Love in Minnesota. He has
: clashed often with second-year coach Kurt Rambis -- mostly over playing time
: -- and although Love says the relationship has improved and that the two "are
: far more on the same page than we were," there are still rocky moments. With
: two minutes to go in the third quarter against Boston, Rambis sent rookie
: Wesley Johnson in for Love. An exasperated Love, who felt he had a good
: matchup with rookie Luke Harangody, argued with Rambis on the sideline until
: Rambis waved him toward the bench.
在灰狼的前兩年半,Love過得並不順遂,他和Rambis有心結。雖然Love說他們關係有
比較和緩一些,不過還是處於謀合期。在對上超塞的比賽,Love有些賭爛Rambis的調度。
: The losing has worn on Love, who desperately wants to win. And while Rambis
: points to the progress Minnesota has made this season and GM David Kahn talks
: about making the playoffs next season, the Wolves still have a long way to
: go. The core of the NBA's youngest team includes the unpredictable Michael
: Beasley and the unproven Johnson. They have lost all confidence in the No. 6
: pick in the 2009 draft, Jonny Flynn, and plan to replace him with Euroleague
: superstar Ricky Rubio next season.
不停輸球讓Love感覺不太好,當Rambis說灰狼有在進步了喔!而且GM Kahn說明年以前
進季後賽為目標,灰狼重建之路還長。灰狼的主力球員還包括了不可預測的be-easy、
還有待證明身價的Wes Johnson。而灰狼隊於Flynn失去了信心,等待著Rubio來取代他的
位置。
: Love sees all of this, has absorbed it, processed it. Which is why he is
: complimentary of the Timberwolves' progress -- "I can see a light at the end
: of the tunnel," he said. "I couldn't see it last year" -- but he stops short
: of saying he plans to be in Minnesota for the long term. Love is eligible to
: sign a contract extension this summer but admits he does think about free
: agency, about having some control over his future.
Love說他可以看見灰狼一絲光明的未來,不過他也不敢斷定他會長久留在Minnesota。
Love今夏可以跟灰狼延長合約不過他承認他有在考慮跳入FA,掌控他的未來。
(又要搞合體??)
: "We'll see what happens with what David Kahn and the front office want to
: do," Love said. "If it's right, it's right. If it's not, it's not. I could
: end up somewhere else. I just want to play for a team that wants to win at
: this point. At this point, I just want to win now."
"我們了解球隊的運作,如果對就是對,錯就是錯,我只是很想為一支想要贏球的球隊打
球,我現在就想贏!!"
: Wherever Love goes, he won't come cheap. The five-year, $60 million
: extensions signed by Joakim Noah and Al Horford last year will likely be
: Love's starting point in negotiations. And his deal could be bigger. When
: asked what kind of contract Love could be in line for this summer, one league
: executive's answer was succinct: Max.
不管Love到哪裡,他都可以拿到一份肥約。Noah跟Horford的合約可以當他最好的範本,
而他的價錢可以更高。Love應該可以得到一份max的合約。
: Then there is this: Love told SI.com that during last summer's World
: Championship in Turkey he had conversations with USA Basketball teammates
: Russell Westbrook (who played with Love at UCLA) and Derrick Rose about the
: possibility of someday teaming up in the NBA. Oklahoma City's Westbrook and
: Chicago's Rose are also permitted to sign extensions this summer.
去年夏天的世錦賽,他跟Westbrook還有Rose討論到一起打球的可能性...而他們兩支
PG在去年都跟球隊續約了。
: "We all talk about playing together," Love said. "It's fun to talk about.
: When the time comes, we'll assess the situation and figure it out."
: Minnesota will have to assess the situation, too. Quickly. The Timberwolves
: have one more year until Love can become a restricted free agent, one more
: year to shore up the roster. If they don't, it won't be long before the team
: Love will be controlling the boards against is them.
灰狼留住Love得趕快把握機會而且手腳要快囉!!
這隻留不住,那就進入無限重建期了。
