: Utah Jazz . . .The Grade So Far

: The Utah Jazz are one of the most impressive teams in the NBA. Not because
: they have a bunch of titles or can boast the MVP or anything like that.
: No, the Jazz are impressive because they turned around a program that lost
: two All-Stars in John Stockton and Karl Malone and are already back in
: contention. And make no mistake about it, the Jazz will be contenders this
: season.
猶他爵士是在NBA中令人印象深刻的其中一支隊伍。這並不是因為他們有許多總冠軍,
值得誇耀的MVP球員或其他類似的情況。都不是,爵士讓人印象深刻的地方是他們即使在
失去兩位全明星之後依然能回到競爭的行列,而且並未發生任何錯誤,即使在下一季,
爵士的競爭力仍然依舊。
: Last season Deron Williams established himself as a top-three point guard in
: the NBA, and together with Carlos Boozer he will be part of a
: championship-caliber duo for years to come. As of today, the Jazz are
: probably one piece away from actually being to challenge for the Western
: Conference title, though that has more to do with the improvements made by
: other WC teams than their own organic shortcomings.
在上一季小胖為他自己樹立了NBA前三控衛的招牌,搭配上Boozer,這對雙人組將會持續
好幾年成為爵士爭冠的主幹。直到今天,爵士依舊距離西區冠軍領先群仍有一步之遙,
而這樣的問題相較於其他西區球隊各自的缺點是大了些。
: Players Added In Free Agency
: Deron Williams: signed a multi-year contract extension
: C.J. Miles: retained through first right of refusal
: Grade: A
在自由球員的簽約
DW:複數年合約的展延
CJ:保持最後一年的優先續約權
評價:A
: No one understands the importance of continuity as well as Jazz GM Kevin
: O'Connor, whether it means keeping a head coach who's been with the team for
: 30 seasons, or making sure the future of the franchise is secure by making
: their floor leader happy. Williams wanted some assurances before he signed
: his extension, and that's understandable as we watch good young teams like
: Atlanta and Chicago fool around with their key free agents. Before Williams
: inked his extension he wanted to know that every effort would be made to make
: sure Carlos Boozer and Mehmet Okur stayed in Utah, and such assurances were
: given. Plenty of teams will target Boozer next summer, but the chemistry
: that's developing between the power forward and the point guard should be
: more than enough to assure a long and successful future for both of them in
: Utah.
沒有人比爵士的GM更瞭解連續的重要性,這代表了把教皇留下來的重任或是確保球隊
的未來式安全的藉由球場上的領袖高興。在小胖延伸他的合約前他要求一些保證而這也
是難以理解的,尤其是在觀察其他年輕球隊例如亞特蘭大和芝加哥目前仍不清楚他們
核心球員主軸時。在小胖簽下他的合約時他想要瞭解每一個環節都會繼續努力中以確定
Boozer和Okur能留在鹽湖城,而這樣保證也被承諾。相當多的球隊將在下一個夏季將
目標放在Boozer身上,但這組控衛和大前鋒發展出的化學作用將足夠確保他們在鹽湖城
一個成功且永久的未來。
: C.J. Miles is a player who represents the future to the Jazz, though to what
: extent it's not yet clear. Jerry Sloan likes him because he works hard, and
: it's shown in the progress he's made over his three seasons in Utah. He
: consistently earned more and more playing time and he's become more and more
: efficient - and efficiency is extremely important for a non-starter. The
: acquisition of deep-threat Kyle Korver was a clear indication that the Jazz
: believe Miles is a ways away from playing a huge role for them, but when
: Korver's time with the Jazz is finished it's possible Miles will be ready to
: fill that void.
CJ是一位代表爵士未來的球員,儘管未來會如何目前還不明確。教皇喜歡他因為他總是
努力奮鬥而且在爵士的這三年也展示了他的成果。他持續地為他自己或的更多的上場時
間而且變得更有效率--這對一位非先發球員來說是特別重要的。在爵士獲得Kover後即
代表爵士並不認為CJ是在未來藍圖的重要人物。但當Kover的合約結束時CJ的確有機會
取代他的空缺。
: Players Acquired In Draft
: Kosta Koufos: selected 23rd overall
: Ante Tomic: selected 44th overall
: Tadija Dragicevic: selected 53rd overall
: Grade: C
藉由選秀獲得的球員
Kosta Koufos:第23順位
Ante Tomic:第44順位
Tadija Dragicevic:第53順位
評價:C
: Looking for a big, the Jazz went with Ohio State freshman Kosta Koufos in the
: first round. Koufos had a mediocre showing at the Rocky Mountain Revue,
: averaging basically nine points and six rebounds per game in a very watered
: down field of competition. That said, he's a freshman with lots of work ahead
: of him. It's tempting to give the Jazz an "Inc." for this one, but for now it
: seems they didn't help themselves in the here and now with their first round
: pick.
在尋找一位禁區支柱的目標下爵士在第一輪選上的俄亥俄州大的一年級生Kosta Koufos
Koufos在Rocky Mountain Revue表現平常,平均9分6籃板並且對抗性不佳。也就是說,
身為一位新鮮人他還有許多努力的地方,這也讓爵士在選他時有些猶豫,但看來在第一
輪其他球員同時也無法幫的上忙。
: The Jazz haven't signed either of their second-round picks, who are likely to
: continue playing overseas for the foreseeable future.
爵士目前還未和任何一位第二輪選進的球員簽約,這些球員在可預見的未來都還會在海
外打球。
: Players Acquired Via Trade
: The Jazz made a small trade, sending point guard Jason Hart to the LA
: Clippers for point guard Brevin Knight. Knight is a more experienced back-up
: who is capable of playing a solid role for the Jazz off the bench. Hart
: simply wasn't able to crack the rotation in Utah, while Knight has a shot at
: doing that. The contracts are basically a wash, with both being in their
: final years and within $200K of each other.
由交易獲得的球員:
爵士做了一個小的交易,將Hart送至快艇換來Knight。Knight是一位豐富經驗的替補,
他也會為爵士在板凳上提供必要的協助。Hart並無法融入爵士的輪值內,但Knight有機
會去嘗試達成這目標,兩位合約年的球員影響都很小,每一位最多都不超過200k。
: Business To Be Done
: We continue to hear random grumblings about the possibility of Andrei
: Kirilenko being dealt, and plenty of teams are still looking to deal. It just
: depends on whether or not there's a deal out there that could truly mean an
: upgrade for Utah. Kirilenko is a heck of a basketball player and among the
: best defenders in the NBA. It would probably be best for the two parties to
: find common ground and stick with each other.
努力的方向:
AK被交易的傳聞不絕於耳而許多支球隊也期待交易。這會取決於是否爵士能特過交易來
改善球隊的體質。AK有他防守的影響力而且也是NBA最好的防守者之一。最好的方法是讓
兩方找到共同的目標一起奮鬥。(最後這句看不太懂)
: Total Offseason Grade: B
: The most important piece of business for the Jazz this summer was to re-ink
: Deron Williams. They certainly didn't want to find themselves in a messy
: situation next summer like the Bulls and Hawks have been involved in this
: year. They also didn't want to run the risk that another team could find a
: way to lure Williams away.
整體季後評價:B
爵士在季末最重要的工作就是和小胖延伸合約,球隊並不想在下一季讓公牛和老鷹加入
競標的行列。也不想讓其他球隊有覬覦小胖的一絲機會。
: Standing pat is not usually the best way to improve a team, and the way the
: Western Conference continues to get more difficult means standing pat might
: actually be a backwards move. The Houston Rockets with Ron Artest, the New
: Orleans Hornets with James Posey, and the L.A. Lakers with Andrew Bynum can
: expect to be even better than they were last season. So far the Jazz are
: counting on maturity and individual player improvement to keep them in the
: hunt. It's probably enough to get them out of the second round of the
: playoffs, but it's probably not quite enough to win a championship.
: Not yet, anyway.
保持穩定通常不是最好補強球隊的辦法,而且隨著西區列強的提昇原地踏步實際代表著
退步。休士頓換來Artest,黃蜂簽來Posey,湖人在擁有Bynum可預期會比去年來的更好。
到目前為止爵士仍然依賴團隊的成熟以及單獨球員的進補保持球隊的競爭力。這或許能夠
讓球隊在第二輪突圍而出但還不足夠贏得一個冠軍。
要到達冠軍前仍還有一段路要走。
