< Los Angeles Lakers’ Jeremy Lin making an impact beyond box score >
By Mark Medina, LA Daily News (洛杉矶每日新闻)
A buzz hovered around the arena, long after Kobe Bryant and Steve Nash
dazzled the crowd with encouraging signs that their health has not failed
them.
Instead, Jeremy Lin took over the spotlight. You would not know if you just
glanced at the box score, his six missed field goals in the Lakers’ 98-95
preseason win Monday over Denver in San Diego sticking out like the torn
ligament in Nick Young’s right thumb. But Lin’s 10 assists reflected the
26-year-old guard’s success in bringing offensive clarity among an assorted
cast of role players.
当人们在为Kobe和Nash战胜健康问题而欢欣时，林抢走了聚光灯，乍看之下0-6令人
感到碍眼，但实际上呢? 10个助攻数反映了这个26岁的后卫将各样角色球员带进了
一个清晰的进攻里。
“I just want to figure out how I can bring my strengths and apply it best to
this system,” Lin said. “It’s kind of like a chess match in learning and
figuring it out.”
林说 "我只想带来我的强项并运用于这个体系，就好像下棋一样一面学习一面思考如
何拆招解招"。
The Lakers expect Lin to finish with the same efficiency as his last season
with Houston, where he shot 57.8 percent off drives, a statistic that only
trailed LeBron James. But with the Lakers losing Young as their top reserve
for about the next eight weeks, coach Byron Scott said Lin will become either
the first or second reserve to enter the game.
湖人期待他能有跟上季一样能跟LBJ媲美的切入效率，在没有Young的下个八周里，
Byron说林将会是替补里第一或第二选择。
“Jeremy didn’t shoot the ball well,” Scott said, “but he did a great job
of orchestrating the offense and making great passes.”
Plenty of them went to Lakers forward Ed Davis, whose 12 points on 6-of-7
shooting featured him and Lin working off one another on pick-and-roll sets.
The chemistry worked so well that Scott has considered ensuring that the two
play together in future exhibition games.
“Sometimes you don’t always need to score or get as many assists,” Lin
said. “As long as you’re aggressive, something will open up.”
Byron说 "林进攻状况不好，但是他在整合进攻和助攻传球上做得非常好"。 受益最
大的是 爱的戴维斯 (感谢版友casman提供此暱称) 先生 (12pts 6-7)。总教练考虑
让林和戴维斯的搭配以及林的挡拆在接下来的比赛里展现。
林说 "我不是每次都会刻意取分或者助攻，只要维持侵略性，机会就会来临"。
