http://p100.ezboard.com/fnotmesutahjazzfrm1.showMessage?topicID=21832.topic Jazzhoops偷來的，他應該也是從 ESPN Insider偷來的... 好來，硬翻！ Carlos Boozer Ain't karma a bummer? Boozer's reward for backstabbing Cleveland was disappointment in Athens, an off year on a bad team, a public calling-out from Jerry Sloan at midseason, and a season-ending injury. 難道這叫做報應嗎？ Boozer對騎士隊做的壞事的報應，就是他在雅典奧運鳥掉，然後隔年到了一個鳥球隊，被 Sloan公開喊話，還有最後整季報銷的受傷。 In between Boozer struggled to adjust to a more prominent offensive role. The Jazz used him much as they used Karl Malone in the past, throwing to Boozer in the post and then running a series of cuts away from the ball. That helped Boozer's Assist Ratio quite a bit, but he never seemed comfortable as a scorer. Boozer's game in Cleveland was as a high-percentage finisher who thrived away from the ball, getting many of his points on put-backs and dishes from teammates. His post repertoire is fairly limited, with a turnaround over his right shoulder being a primary weapon. He's much better from the high post, where he loves to drive left. In fact, opponents should just play him as though he's left-handed. 在這之中， Boozer對於轉換成一個固定的進攻位置有點難以適應。爵士隊把他當成當年 Karl Malone在低位的用途，把 Boozer 丟到低位去，然後跑一堆走位和切入。這讓 Boozer 的助攻比率上升了一點，不過他從來不讓人看起來覺得他是個順暢的得分球員。 Boozer 在騎士隊的球比較像是不太拿球的，很容易達成任務，把球放進去那種，他很多（當時的）得分都是從補籃和被隊友助攻得來。他的低位能力是被有點限制的，只有一個轉身右手小勾為他的主要武器。他在高位反而比較好，他喜歡切左邊。事實上對手應該要把他當成一個慣用左手球員來守。 Offensively, Boozer shot 52.1 percent and averaged over 20 points per 40 minutes. Nonetheless, his season was a letdown for a couple of reasons. First, he failed to build on the promise of his dynamite first two seasons in the league and his Rebound Rate withered considerably. Additionally, Boozer's defense was a huge disappointment. He is neither tall nor terribly athletic for his position, so he struggles to challenge shots by opposing post players and blocked less than half a shot per game. Moreover, he often seemed to be going at half speed, especially in transition defense. 進攻方面， Boozer 每四十分鐘得分超過 20 分，平均 52.1 的投籃命中率。不過，這個球季和之前幾個有點掉下來了。第一，他沒有達到他在前兩季中，被期望的那種搶籃板的高效率。再來， Boozer 的防守令人大失所望。他在他的位置上不別高，也沒有多有運動力，所以他在防守對方低位單打時有點問題，另外他每場不超過半個火鍋。再者，他常常有種只有一半力跑動的感覺，尤其是在轉換防守球員的時候。 For 2005-06, he'll need to remedy those weaknesses. The good news for the Jazz is that Boozer is quite young and he put up some good numbers last year. With a more sustained defensive effort and better health, he can give the Jazz their money's worth on his fat contract. 對 05-06球季來說，他應該要好好的治療這樣的弱點了。對爵士隊的好消息是， Boozer 還算年輕，而他去年數據也算不錯。如果他能夠努力的防守，並且保持健康的話，他可以提供爵士隊的那個肥約應該有的貢獻。 Most similar at age: Billy Owens Devin Brown Brown and Bryant Stith had one of the highest similarity Scores at 99.7. Both were chunky 6-5 guys who rebound well for their size, scored inside or out, but shot a low percentage. Brown hasn't played a lot of minutes, but he's been an underrated sub in his three years in San Antonio because he defends well, plays two positions, and can hit an open shot. Brown和當年的 Bryant Stith 有個高達 99.7的相似性吧。兩個都是結實的6-5 ，然後在這樣的身高上，他們籃板能力都不錯，在內外都能得分，但是命中率不高。 Brown沒有獲得很多上場時間，不過他已經在三年內因為他在馬刺隊，而且他防守好，可以打兩個位置，還有可以投進沒人守的球，所以成了個被低估的替補球員。 One would think that would create free-agent demand for him, but it doesn't appear to be in the cards. Brown had back trouble toward the end of last season and a lot of teams shied away from him because of it. He hadn't signed with anyone at publication time, but I would expect him to re-sign with San Antonio by the time camp opens. If that's the case and the back is OK, he'll continue to provide one of the league's best deep reserves, as well as one of the least expensive. 一般人可能會覺得，這樣的特質可以讓他變成一個有人要的自由球員，不過這似乎不是真的。 Brown去年季末有背部的問題，因此很多球隊因為這樣而不想要他。他完全沒有被簽下來，我本來期待他會在訓練營開始的時候，被馬刺隊簽回去。如果他的背還可以的話，他會繼續扮演著聯盟裡最棒的替補球員，同時也是聯盟裡最不貴的替補球員。 Update: Signed with Utah Jazz Most similar at age: Bryant Stith Jarron Collins Collins is an inch shorter than his twin brother in New Jersey, but his characteristics as a player are nearly identical. He rarely scores and is a terrible rebounder for his size, but he makes his living at the defensive end. Collins is a solid defender who specializes in taking charges, although he's not quite on a par with his brother in this realm. Unlike his brother, this Collins hasn't lucked into a starting job yet. With Okur, Boozer, and a re-acquired Ostertag in line ahead of him for minutes, his luck doesn't figure to change any time soon, but that may be for the best. In a limited role, Collins' abysmal offensive output isn't quite so glaring, and his defense provides a lift on a team short of defenders. Collins 比他在籃網打球的雙胞胎哥哥矮了半吋，不過他們倆在球員上的特質幾乎是一模一樣的。他很少得分，籃板搶得也很爛，不過他是靠著他的防守來討生活的。 Collins 是一個在卡位方面強悍的防守者，雖然他在這方面就不和他哥有什麼一樣的了。跟他哥不同的是，這個 Collins沒有幸運的撿到一個先發。當 Okur, Boozer 還有又回來的 Tag在前面擋住他的上場時間時，他的運氣目前為止還不錯，事情還沒有什麼改變，不過這樣應該是最好的了。 Collins鳥蛋的進攻貢獻不是很明顯，而他在防守方面讓他在隊上的位置會有點提升，因為這隊其實沒什麼防守好的球員。 Gordan Giricek Utah signed Giricek to a long-term deal in free agency, but he was ill-suited to provide the perimeter threat the offense so desperately needed. Giricek is a decent shooter, but is much more comfortable from middle ranges than shooting the long ball. Giricek shot 36.2 percent on 3-pointers but attempted only one per game because his instinct is to shoot off the dribble going to his right. Unfortunately, he rarely goes all the way to the paint so he doesn't draw fouls, and that keeps his TS% low. 爵士隊以自由球員的身份簽下了 Giri ，不過他在隊上的位置被擺錯了，使他難以貢獻他三分線的能力，而這是爵士隊急迫需要的。 Giri 是個不錯的射手，不過在中距離的表現比在三分線上好很多。他三分線只有 36.2%，不過每場只有一次左右的出手次數因為他有種往右邊運一運球然後就拔起來出手的天性。可惜的是，他很少直接往禁區衝，所以他的 TS%很低。（按：我也不知道那是啥） Giricek didn't fare much better at the defensive end either. He's a better athlete than he's given credit for but his lateral movement is a shortcoming and he needs more muscle. As a result of those two factors, Giricek quickly lost his starting job to Bell. Giri在防守上也沒多好。他有不錯的運動力，這給他了點優勢，但是他的橫向移動是弱點，同時他也要變壯一點。因為這兩點，他很快的就把先發位置讓給了 Raja Bell。 With Bell departing and the Jazz lacking an obvious solution at shooting guard, Giricek once again begins the season with the shooting guard job as his to lose. Realistically, he'd be a much better option as a bench player, and he'd fit in more easily on a club that wasn't counting on him to stretch the defense. Instead, he'll probably lose his job by midseason again. 現在 Bell 走了，而且看起來爵士隊在 SG 方面也沒有什麼絕對強勢的球員， Giri 又一次在 SG 上得到了個他曾經失去的位置。事實上，他他當個板凳球員應該是個更好的選項，如果不被算在防守上的話，會更加符合整個隊形。相反的，他可能會在季中的時候又弄丟他的先發地位。 Most similar at age: Allan Houston Matt Harpring Harpring has battled knee problems the past two seasons and that's been killing him on defense. He was never a speedster, but his inability to stay in front of quick forwards reached epic proportions last season as Harpring posted the worst Defensive PER in basketball. Harpring is probably better off at power forward, even though he's a couple of inches short. His strength and physical play are a better fit there, and he can hold his own against power forwards under the boards. Harpring過去兩季都在和他的膝蓋問題奮戰，而這也似乎搞爛了他的防守。他從來就不是可以擋住高速人的人，不過他去年在防守比率上超低的程度，他根本不能待在那些高速前鋒的前面。 Harpring 可能在大前鋒的位置更好一點，即便他可能少了幾吋。他的能力和身材打那個位置更好，他可以在籃下卡住對方的大前鋒。 That also might help him out at the offensive end, since he's not a great outside shooter anyway. Harpring is fantastic at moving without the ball and draws lots of fouls by making hard cuts to the basket for lay-ups. He's also pretty good shooting from the middle ranges, although he's not a 3-point shooter and has a fairly long wind-up. That's most of his repertoire. Harpring isn't going to create shots off the dribble and his post game is surprisingly poor for such a physical player. 即便他可能會在進攻方面有點幫助，不過他不是個很好的外線射手。Harpring 在沒有球在手上時的移動很強，很容易用神奇的空手切入挑籃來造成犯規。他同時在中距離的表現也不錯，即便他三分線表現不甚好，而且出手動作頗大。這就是他的特質。 Harpring 不會運球然後自己投，並且以他的身體素質來說，他的低位單打能力是不太好的。 Unfortunately, moving to power forward isn't an option with Boozer on the team. It would make sense for the Jazz to trade either Harpring or Boozer to get more help for the backcourt, clearing out more minutes for whomever is left. Otherwise, Harpring will see relatively few minutes as a backup forward, and many of them will come in tandem with Boozer, who makes a poor partner for him. 不幸的是，在 Boozer 在隊上的同時，把他移到大前鋒不會是個選項。如果爵士隊把 Boozer 或 Harpring 交易出去，換來個在前場有幫助的球員，然後可以清出剩下來的那個球員的時間。如果不是這樣的話， Harpring 會在隊上的前鋒位置上當個替補，而且很多時候會和 Boozer 一起搭檔，他們兩個搭的還蠻糟的。 Most similar at age: Larry Johnson Kris Humphries Utah's first-round draft pick in 2004, Humphries was a complete flop as a rookie. He was billed as a high-scoring forward but instead posted the worst TS% among all small forwards. Humphries was incredibly ambitious, constantly seeking to score when he caught the ball in the high post but mostly floating off-the-dribble jumpers that barely grazed the rim. He managed to draw fouls at a high rate, but even that worked out badly since Humphries is an atrocious foul shooter -- he made only 43.6 percent last season. If he had shot the league average, his TS% would have increased nearly five percent. While that's still terrible, it wouldn't have been the hideous, "please stop shooting" disaster that unfolded last season. 爵士隊 2004 年的第一輪， Hump 在新人年整個是個糟。他是個高得分的前鋒，不過另一方面他在小前鋒的表現卻是最低的 TS%。 Hump 有超高的企圖心，常常在他在高位拿到球的時候想要得分，不過通常都變成運球運一運然後往後跳投，然後碰到籃框都算好運。他很容易做到犯規，不過因為他罰球爛到只有 43.6% ，所以這根本沒用處。如果他有聯盟平均的罰球水準的話。他的 TS% 會高個 5% 以上。這一切還是很糟的時候，這就很難藏起來了。「拜託你不要投籃了。」的災難，去年的他就這樣結束了一個球季。 Humphries also struggled defensively. He's a tweener who isn't quick enough to play small forward and has to work on building the strength to play power forward. Humphries' biggest shortcoming was in help defense, a responsibility he often abdicated. He at least held his own on the boards. Hump在防守方面也是一把鳥。他是個不三不四個球員，打三號不夠快，打四號還要練。他最大的弱點是幫忙防守，他常常沒做到這樣的責任。不過他至少會拿到一些籃板。 Humphries was only 19 last season, so it's far too early to write him off. He has a quick first step and is able to create shots, so perhaps this year he won't be so anxious to force the action. If he can do that and improve the free-throw shooting, the Jazz may have themselves a worthy backup for Boozer. But the early returns are hugely disappointing. 他去年也才 19 歲，就這樣把他寫定型也太早了。他有很快的第一步，可以自己創造得分機會，所以這年他可能不會太害怕做這樣的動作。如果他可以好好練練罰球的話，爵士隊會有個不錯的 Boozer 替補。不過現在看來整個是個大失望。 Most similar at age: Kwame Brown Andrei Kirilenko Kirilenko is one of the game's most unique and underrated players, and it was his early-season knee injury that sent Utah's season into a tailspin. Kirilenko hasn't captured the fancy of legions of fans because he isn't a high-volume scorer nor a great outside shooter. He's just very effective at taking advantage of his chances. Kirilenko's height and length allow him to finish in traffic and dunk over taller players. He's also fast, enabling him to get baskets in transition, and moves well without the ball to put himself in position for easy shots. Ak 是這個世界最獨特，也最被低估的球員之一，他去年球季初的膝蓋受傷讓爵士隊整隊陷入了大混亂中。 Ak 目前為止沒有吸引到什麼球迷，因為他不是個大鳴大放的得分者，也不是個超強的外線射手。他只是在每次有機會的時候好好把握他的優勢。 Ak 的高度和手長可以讓他在跑動的時候可以把球放進籃框，並且在那些比他高的球員上灌籃。她也很快，讓他可以在走動的時候得分，而且在沒有持球的時候可以順利的移動，並且因此可以輕鬆的投籃。 In addition, Kirilenko continues to hone his passing skills. His Assist Ratio wasn't anything special two years ago but last season was among the top five at his position. He needs more arc on his jumper and could use some post moves, but those are the only nits to pick about his game. 此外， Ak 持續的加強他的傳球能力，他的助攻比率在兩年前沒什麼特別的，不過去年他在他的位置上是前五。他必須要加強他的跳投能力，還有一些低位的腳步。不過這些都是一些小小的吹毛求疵啦。 Defensively, Kirilenko is devastating, with incredibly long arms that he uses to contest shots. Kirilenko used those arms to lead the league in blocked shots, continuing an odd trend. For the past six seasons, the league leader in blocked shots has been 6-10 or shorter. This era of short shot-blockers like Kirilenko and Ben Wallace is an anomaly. The leader has been 6-11 or taller in each of the preceding 25 seasons. 防守上， Ak 是破壞力強大的，他有極長的手臂，他拿來阻擋別人的投籃。他用這雙手臂因而在聯盟中阻攻第一名。過去六季以來，聯盟裡面阻攻數第一都是低於六呎九吋的。像是 Ak 還有班蛙這樣的年代是很怪的。再之前的 25 季，阻攻王都是超過 6-11的那種。 Less well-known is Kirilenko's ability to pilfer dribblers. He nearly led the team in steals despite playing only 41 games. Overall, Utah gave up 8.3 more points per 48 minutes when he was off the court. Essentially, the Jazz were OK defensively as long as Kirilenko played but became the worst in the league as soon as he checked out. 比較鮮為人知的是他可以從運球者手中偷球來。他即便在隊上只打了 41 場去年，還是差不多是隊上抄截第一名。總體而言，每當他不在場上的時候猶他每48 分鐘會多輸別人 8.3分。所以，爵士隊在 Ak 在場上的時候還算個防守可以的球隊，不過當他下場的時候，這個隊就變成最鳥蛋的防守隊伍了。 Kirilenko lacks the strength of most power forwards, but he can play small forward alongside Boozer and shred opponents with his versatility. Alternatively, he can partner with Harpring in the frontcourt, where each covers the other's weaknesses. Harpring's muscle can protect Kirilenko from strength match-ups, while Kirilenko's quickness can save Harpring from guarding speedy small forwards. Regardless of how the Jazz line up, Kirilenko will be the centerpiece. His low-volume, high-percentage offense makes him unusual for an NBA superstar, but make no mistake: This is one of the ten best players in the league. Ak 的特質不太能打大前鋒，不過他可以和 Boozer 一起構成前場的前鋒陣容，用他各方面的的能力。另一方面，他也可以和 Harpring 在前場搭檔，互相保護對方的缺點。 Hapring 的肌肉可以保護 AK 對到對方的強力進攻的時候；而 Ak 則可以用他的速度來保護 Harpring 對到對方快速前鋒的時候。不論爵士隊如何排陣容， Ak 都是中心點。他的低爆炸性，高命中率進攻讓他變成了個和一般球員不同的超級巨星。不過不要搞錯喔：他是全聯盟前十名的球員。 Most similar at age: Stromile Swift Keith Mcleod McLeod did nothing to earn the Jazz point guard job but was handed it anyway when the other candidates disqualified themselves. McLeod wasn't quite the defensive sieve that Arroyo and Lopez were, nor quite the offensive disaster that Eisley was, so Jerry Sloan settled on him. McLeod其實沒有那種幹爵士隊先發控球的能力，不過不管怎樣他因為他的對手們都爆掉了，所以他還是先發了（按：唉）。他不像 Arroyo 或 Lopez那樣容易被輕鬆過，也不像 Eisley 在進攻方面那麼鳥，所以 Sloan就把他拿去先發了。 McLeod played well offensively early in the season but quickly fell off the pace as the year progressed. He shot only 35 percent on the season, which is pretty awful when one considers he rarely shot 3-pointers. McLeod preferred to take 15-footers off the dribble, which had the predictable result of killing his TS%: McLeod's ugly 44.0 mark was among basketball's worst. McLeod一開始進攻還不錯，不過隨著時間進展，很快的就鳥了。他上一季只有 35%的投籃命中率，而且他其實不是個常投三分線的人。 McLeod 喜歡投那種運球後 15 呎的跳投，而這樣明顯的傾向讓他變成了噁心的 44.0 TS%，大概是籃球史上最糟的那幾個吧。 McLeod isn't a great defender either, but he handles the ball well enough that he could be a decent backup point guard if he made a shot once in a while. Another team will probably take that chance this season, but there's almost no chance of him being a starter again. McLeod防守也沒多好，不過他持球還算可以，所以他可以當個替補控衛，然後只是偶而投投球就好。其他球隊這一季可能會給他這樣的機會，不過他幾乎不可能在繼續經常先發了。 Update: Re-signed with Utah Jazz Most similar at age: Vonteego Cummings Mehmet Okur Statistically, Okur had the best season of his career. He thrived offensively in Utah's motion offense, getting numerous catches near the basket to set up free-throws or turnaround jumpers in the paint. He especially likes to shoot the turnaround from the left block after faking toward the baseline. As a result of the easy shots, he scored at a very high rate for a center and did so with a good TS% as well. Okur also shoots well from outside and is extremely effective both passing and shooting from the high post. As an added plus, he's a strong rebounder. 數據上來看，歐庫兒有著他生涯最好的一季。他在猶他的進攻中拿到不少球，在籃圈附近拿到了很多球，然後做犯規，或者是在禁區做犯規。他特別喜歡在左邊假裝切入之後，然後再往後跳。因為這種簡單的投籃，他得分機率對一個中鋒來說很高，而且 TS%也很好。歐庫兒在外線投籃也不錯，而且他在高位給球或投球的能力也不錯。再者，他是個不錯的籃板手。 Unfortunately, Jerry Sloan never took a shine to him. The major reason was defense. Okur tended to casually jog back on defense and wasn't a good fit for the physical defensive tactics that Sloan prefers. He's not a shot-blocker nor is he terribly strong, so even when he played hard his defensive contribution was fairly limited. An additional black mark was the awful mullet he sported for much of the season. 不幸的是， Sloan不太稱讚（喜歡）他。最主要的原因是因為他的防守。歐庫兒喜歡慢慢的走回去回防，並且不太和 Sloan喜歡的肢體接觸的那種防守太和。他不是個會巴鍋的人也沒有很強壯，所以即便他很努力了，他的防守貢獻還是有限。（這句我就不會翻了， mullet 是啥？鯡魚;鯔魚？） Nonetheless, Sloan made a huge mistake by starting players like Radojevic and Collins while leaving Okur on the pine for much of the season. Okur was one of the Jazz's most effective offensive players, and his rebounding alone gave him some value at the defensive end. Giving him more minutes this year could add a few easy wins to Utah's ledger. 不論如何， Sloan大部分時間把 Okur 當板凳，而讓 Radojevic和 Collins這種貨色先發，是天大的錯誤。歐庫兒是爵士隊最有績效的進攻球員之一，而且只看籃板的話，他在防守方面還是有點價值。多給他一點上場時間可能會在最後總結帳的時候多幾場勝利。 Most similar at age: Vin Baker C.J. Miles A second-round pick, Miles turned pro out of high school and won't pay dividends for a couple of years, if ever. Scouts regard him as adequate in several areas but not particularly impressive in any single one, so Utah will send him to the D-League and see what Miles can produce. 第二輪球員， Miles高中畢業就變成 NBA球員，而且這樣的投資幾年內都不會有什麼股利可拿，嗯，如果有的話。球探們認為他是個在各方面都不錯得球員，但是換言之就是（按：某句著名的）缺乏專精強項。所以猶他會把他送去 D-League 然後看看他可以幹嘛。 Greg Ostertag A free-agent pickup by the Kings who was supposed to be the backup center, Ostertag was a tremendous disappointment and was out of the rotation once the Kings acquired Skinner in the Webber trade. It's now clear that Ostertag's 2003-04 season was a fluke, and that he should be evaluated based on the years before and after. In those seasons, he brought two strong skills to the table -- a strong talent for rebounding and an underrated ability to find the open man. 他是去年暑假被國王撿走，然後本來是想要拿來當成替補中鋒， Tag在國王從拿 Webber 的交易中到了 Skinner 之後，變成了巨大沒用的人，而且還被排出了輪替圈之外。現在很明顯的我們看到 Tag的 03-04球季只是個賽到，而且他應該要被用他之前的那年還有之後的那年來評估才對。在這兩年中，他有兩項強項：對籃板很有天分，還有被低估的找到有空檔球員的能力。 However, the rest of his game was terribly weak. Ostertag's Usage Rate is ghastly because he has trouble catching passes cleanly and going up quickly for a shot. Hence, even when he's left open he's sometimes unable to convert it into two points. Additionally, his shooting percentages are sinking faster than Atlantis. Last season Ostertag suffered a complete meltdown at the free-throw line, shooting a horrific 34.2 percent. That's bad news for a player who depends on free throws for much of his scoring, and it was a major reason Ostertag's TS% was the worst at his position. 不管怎樣，其他他的表現是整個很爛。 Tag因為他很難抓到球並且順利的把球放進籃框，所以變的很難用。因此，即便他整個是沒人守，還是很難把球變成兩分。再者，他的投籃命中率掉的比亞特蘭提斯號還快。去年他在罰球線上只有嚇人的 34.2%。這對一個通常（只能）靠他罰球得分的球員來說，是個壞消息，而這也是為什麼他在中鋒位置上是所有球員最糟的 TS%。 Ostertag was traded back to Utah after the season, and his rebounding and physical defense still can be an asset in spurts. The projections suspect that he will bounce back from last season and play more like the player he was in 2002-03, in which case he'll be a useful asset off the bench for Jerry Sloan. Tag 今年被交易回猶他了，他的籃板和身體防守能力還是有點用。從數據的推估趨勢來看，他應該會從去年的表現中回來，而且感覺會像是 02-03的球員。那個時候他還算是個 Slaon手中堪用的替補球員。 Most similar at age: Alton Lister Milt Palacio Toronto's faster pace benefited Palacio as much as anybody. He's outstanding in transition but has no jump shot, so he struggles in halfcourt settings. With the faster pace, Palacio added nearly 100 percentage points to his field-goal percentage and improved his Assist and Turnover Ratios, making him a more credible option as a backup point guard. 暴龍的高速進攻讓 Palacio就像其他球員一樣得利了。他在跑動的時候很棒，但是不會跳投，所以他在半場進攻的時候還蠻慘的。在這樣高速的情況下， Palacio幾乎多了 10%在他的投籃命中率，並且讓他的助攻失誤比變強了，這也讓他變成了個堪用的替補後衛。 In the open court, Palacio is especially tough when going to his right and has a habit of going right into the defender and getting himself to the line. He averaged .40 free-throw attempts per field-goal attempt, which is outstanding for a point guard, and that helped keep his TS% respectable despite his making only two 3-pointers all season. 在全場進攻的時候， Palacio對於向右切特別強悍，並且總是有個會向右邊往防守者切入然後做犯規的傾向。他有 .40的每罰球數/投籃數比，這也讓他的TS% 還算可以，即便他整季只有兩次三分投籃。 Also, Palacio was one of the Raptors' few quality defenders. He moves his feet well and at 6-3 has good size for the position. However, he's an unrestricted free agent and will be playing the market after his relatively strong season in 2004-05. 同時， Palacio也是暴龍少數合格的防守球員之一。他腳步移動的不錯，並且在這個位置上 6-3帶著不錯的優勢。無論如何，他是個不受限制的自由球員，並且會在這個相對不錯的 04-05球季之後，被擺進市場中一試。 Update: Signed with Utah Jazz Most similar at age: Bimbo Coles Robert Whaley An impressive banger despite his short stature for a center, Whaley has more baggage than O'Hare Airport and will be an interesting fit with Sloan in Utah. He had been a junior college All-American but lasted only half a season at Cincinnati before being dismissed for academic and attitude problems. His resume also includes multiple run-ins with the law and substance abuse issues. Other than that, I'm sure he's a great guy. 即便在中鋒的位置身高略顯矮小，但是仍然是個強力的球員， Whaley 有著比 O'Hare 機場還多的垃圾，而且如果他能夠融入 Sloan的系統的話，會是件很有趣的事。他是個全美社區學院年度最佳球員，不過他因為學業和態度的問題，只有在辛辛那提打了半季罷了。他的履歷表上還有一些違反法律，還有藥物濫用等等。撇開這些不談。我相信他是個不錯的球員。 Deron Williams Scouts are in love with Williams, but I have my suspicions. He shot 43 percent from the field and 67 percent from the line, neither of which augur stardom. Additionally, for a college point guard to average fewer than one steal per game suggests insufficient athleticism. Finally, he lost weight right before the draft and looked impressive in workouts, but I'm suspicious as to whether he can keep the pounds off. He certainly can pass and is an OK outside shooter, but I think they might have been better off taking Chris Paul 球探們都很愛他，但我很懷疑。他只有 .43的投籃命中率，並且 .67的罰球命中率。這兩項成績都不像個很強的明星球員的數據。此外，對一個大學球員每場不超過一次抄截，就代表著他的運動力不好。最後，他在選前測試之前減肥了，並且在測試的時候看起來很強，不過我對於他是否可以維持這樣的身材表示懷疑。他的確會傳球，而且是個可以的外線投籃者，不過我覺得他們還是應該要選擇 Chris Paul。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 203.204.129.89
