标题: [旧文] 10 Reasons Kevin McHale Has Already Fa
时间: Sat Mar 9 03:57:14 2013
前几天总板在战冰箱的调度，好奇就辜狗了一下找到这篇文章。
去年火箭本有机会进季后赛却没打进，Bleach Report的 Danny Dukker写了一篇讨伐冰箱
的文章。原来去年就有人砲冰箱了， 虽然很多人说BR的东西看看就好，这篇在ClutchFan
好像也被骂翻了，还是翻译一下顺便赚个赌本。
本季因为林到了火箭，我也成了火箭的一季球迷。对于去年火箭的情况不是很了解，但是
Dukker去年列的几个问题，我认为跟现在的火箭还蛮像的。
以下是Dukker认为冰箱是个失败教练的十个理由。
10 Reasons Kevin McHale Has Already Failed as Coach
http://www.ppt.cc/FM_d
◎ Failed to Orchestrate Good Trades
无法策划好的交易
I realize the coach is not the one who does the trading and the dealing of
players, but he does have a say. A good coach always makes sure he has a say
in the trading of players and even makes suggestions to the front office.
我知道教练的工作并不是处理球员交易以及签约事宜，但教练拥有话语权。一个好的教
练必须随时确保他在球员的交易中有置喙的权利，甚至在必要的时候给制服组一些建议。
McHale has done nothing as far as trading except for getting rid of one of
the more promising young point guards in the league for Marcus Camby. Other
than that move, there has been no trade to improve the weaknesses of the
roster or further highlight the strengths.
但 McHale在球员交易上毫无作为，除了他为了Camby而放弃联盟里一个很有潜力的年轻
控球后卫。除此之外，就再也没有任何交易去改善球队阵容里面的缺陷，强化球队的战
力。
◎ Did Not Rally the Team in the End
无法凝聚球队
The Rockets missed the playoffs by just two games due to their six-game
losing streak toward the end of April. The team was not focused and did not
close out the season adequately.
接近四月底的六连败，让火箭仅仅以两场的差距丧失了季后赛资格。这只球队并不专注
也没有十足的准备去打完他们的球季。
They did not have an easy April, but their finish showed just how unmotivated
these players were. As I will mention again, this is a reasonably talented
group of players, and the fact that McHale failed to get anything out of them
in the home stretch is really a shame.
他们的四月并不好过，但他们的结局显示著这些球员是多么的毫无动力。我还是要再次
强调，这是一群拥有相当天赋的球员，而McHale无法对这些球员善尽其用真的是一件非
常遗憾的事。
◎ Bleak Outlook for the Future
对于球队未来没有远见
The Rockets do have a group of young players that show reasonable promise,
but McHale has failed to get the right group of young talent.
火箭确实拥有一群有前景的年轻球员，但是McHale却无法让他们成为一个正确的组合。
As it stands now, they have no promise at the center position as both of
their centers are north of 30 with Marcus Camby being just two years shy of
40.
现在的情况是，他们的在中锋这位置上已经没有希望了，几名中锋都已年过30，Camby
更是只差2岁就40岁了。
Their power forward situation is not too much better and Scola is now 32 with
no serviceable replacement. At this point, McHale is their best option as a
backup power forward. The reason I blame this on McHale is found in the next
slide.
他们的4号位也好不到那，Scola已经32岁了，却没有一个称职的替补， 或者McHale本身
就是他们4号位替补的最佳选择。在下一段可以找到为什么我把它归咎于McHale的原因。
◎ Coaches Like He Plays
用当球员的心态来职教
The reason many good players can’t make good coaches is because they have
reached a certain level of excellence on the court that they expect it from
others.
一个好的球员未必是一个好的教练最主要的原因就是，他们在当球员的时候已经达到一
定程度的卓越，所以他们也会对其他球员保持相同的期待。
They also tend to focus on things they did while playing. In McHale’s case,
he is all about the paint on both sides of the ball.
他们也倾向于专注在当他们还是球员时就在做的事。像McHale，他就是在禁区里面讨生
活。
The problem is that his roster isn't best suited for defending and attacking
the paint. This also leads me into…
但问题是，他的阵容并不适合拿来捍卫禁区及攻击禁区。
◎ Very Weak Game Plan
战术非常贫乏
McHale does not seem ready for teams he faces. He is a great TV analyst, but
I just haven’t seen his knowledge behind the desk translate into readiness
on the court.
McHale看起来并没有准备好去带他的球队。他是一个很棒的解说员，但我从没看过他把
他的篮球知识从转播台带到场上。
As a coach of a potential playoff team, you have to be ready for your
matchups each week.
Too many possessions end in a terrible shot, and too many plays just don’t
work.
作为一个很有可能打进季后赛的球队的总教练，你必须每个礼拜都要准备好去面对你的
对手。
有太多次的进攻结束于一个很糟糕的投篮，以及一堆根本起不到作用的战术。
◎ Not Using the Roster Correctly
无法正确使用球员
What McHale has is a well-rounded roster that can really be very effective on
the offensive end. Lowry is a good ball handler and guys like Kevin Martin
and Chase Budinger are good shooters on the outside. Scola has an above
average post game while Courtney Lee is a well-rounded offensive talent.
McHale所拥有的是一支很完善，在进攻端非常有效率的阵容。Lowry是一个很好的控球者，
Martin跟Budinger都是外围很不错的射手。Scola是一个水准以上的低位球员，Courtney
Lee也是一个进攻天份很不错的球员。
He should be able to make this work, but he simply can’t.
McHale应该是可以成功的带领这只球队的，但他就是没有。
◎ The Team Had a Better Record Year Before
球队去年的成绩反而还比今年好
A huge knock on McHale is that he came in and the team became worse. The
Rockets missed the playoffs in 2011, but they finished above .500, a point
they barely reached this year.
对McHale来说，一个严重的打击就是他进入了这只球队却让这只球队变的更糟。火箭
在2011年错过了季后赛，但他们最后还有五成以上的胜率，这是他们今年很少达到的
胜率。
Last season, the competition was very strong, but it was not this year, and
Houston should have been in the playoffs.
上个球季季后赛的竞争非常激烈，但今年并没有，而火箭是应该要打进季后赛的。
◎ Defense Not a Priority
防守不是优先选项
The defense and rebounding have not been strong points for the Rockets team.
McHale seems much more interested in offense, just like he was during his
playing days, but it didn't work.
防守以及篮板并不是火箭的强项。McHale似乎对进攻比较有兴趣，就像他还是球员时候
的那个样子，但这根本行不通。
His offensive play calling was also not completely working as Houston
finished ninth in points per game, but 14th in field goal percentage.
同时，他的进攻策略也不完全对火箭起到作用，火箭平均每场得分排名第九，团队命中
也只是排在第十四位。
Since the players was struggling at times on the offensive end, they should
have been addressing the defense.
当有些时候，球员在进攻端打的非常挣扎，他们就应该更表现出他们的防守。
◎ Is Not Spreading the Minutes Correctly
不正确地分配球员上场时间
Kyle Lowry was viewed as a candidate for a breakout season this year, and
while his numbers went up, his minutes actually dropped under McHale. Chase
Budinger showed promise in his first two seasons, but saw no increase in
minutes this season.
本季被视为是Lowry爆发球季的一年。而当他的数据往上提升时，事实上他的上场时间
是减少的。Budinger在他前两个球季展现出他的潜力，他的上场时间却没有增加。
Samuel Dalembert is an inconsistent player, but considering the weaknesses of
Houston, he does not get enough playing time.
Dalembert是一个不稳定的球员，而考虑到火箭的弱点，他也没有得到足够的上场时间。
The two things a head coach needs to avoid under all circumstances is
delaying the progress of young talent by not rewarding them with more
minutes. McHale has done both this year.
在任何情况下总教练都必须要避免的事有两件，那就是阻碍年轻球员的发展以及不给他
们足够的上场时间。而这两件事McHale这个球季都作了。
