NBA fans should start focusing on college players at this time of the year, as
their decisions will make a big impact on the next professional season.
在今年的此刻,球迷们可以开始聚焦于这些大学球员了。
他们的选择会对下个NBA球季造成巨大的震荡。
Underclassmen have until April 28 to declare for the 2013 NBA draft (via
NBA.com). However, many college stars have already publicly stated that they
will end their collegiate careers early.
这些新人必须等到4月28日才能真正报名2013年NBA选秀会,
不过已经有不少超新星公开宣布将提前结束他们的大学篮球生涯。
Most recently, top prospect Nerlens Noel announced on the University of
Kentucky website that he will leave after one year at the school. There was
some debate whether he would return to school after tearing his ACL during the
season, but it is now clear that he will move on to the NBA.
稍早前,最被看好的诺伦斯诺尔在肯塔基大学
官网上已经宣布,他将离开待了一年的母校。
在他因为ACL的伤势影响而提前结束球季之后,
有些看法认为他将先留校养伤,不过现在已经非常确定他将挥军直指NBA。
This decision affects the entire draft, as he is projected to be one of the
top players selected. Here is an updated mock draft following Monday's news.
这一决定将重重的影响整个选秀会,毕竟他可是预计要成为选秀状元的人。
根据周一的新闻,以下是最新的模拟选秀清单。
1. Charlotte Bobcats: Nerlens Noel, C, Kentucky
1. 夏洛特山猫: 肯塔基, 中锋, 诺伦斯诺尔
Despite the fact that he missed the last month of the season to a knee injury,
Nerlens Noel has enough pure talent to be selected with the top overall pick.
Charlotte needs help pretty much everywhere on the floor after another
terrible season. While the squad has some scorers, the frontcourt is miserable.
就算他因为膝盖伤势而缺席最后一个月的赛事,
仍然拥有足够明确的天赋而优先中选。
在度过又一个糟糕的球季之后,山猫不管在哪个位置上都求才若渴。
他们已经有了些得分手,不过前场要写个惨字。
Noel will help improve the defense immediately with his ability to block shots
and bring down rebounds. Eventually, he will also be able to contribute on the
offensive end once he develops more technique.
The Bobcats can afford to let the center be brought along slowly over the next
year or more.
选进能够火锅盖帽和抢篮板的诺尔对防守将有立竿见影之效。
等他发展出更多技术,假以时日甚至能在进攻有所贡献。
山猫可以给这个中锋一年或更多的时间来慢慢成长。
2. Orlando Magic: Marcus Smart, PG, Oklahoma State
2. 奥兰多魔术: 奥克拉荷马州立, 控卫, 马库斯史玛特
The Magic have some solid young players in the frontcourt, but they need a
point guard to bring it all together. Marcus Smart is a bit inconsistent, but
his size and athleticism will allow him to succeed at the next level.
If he can become a better shooter, Smart could be an All-Star in a few years.
魔术已经有些能干的前场球员,但仍急需一个控卫来团结他们。
马库斯史马特有点起伏不定,不过身材和体能可以带领他更上一层楼。
如果能长出外线,他会是未来几年的全明星。
3. Cleveland Cavaliers: Otto Porter, SF, Georgetown
3. 克里夫兰骑士: 乔治城, 小前锋, 奥托波特
Cleveland has been slowly solidifying its starting lineup through the draft,
but it still needs a lot of help at small forward.
Otto Porter would be the perfect match for this team as someone who can fill
up almost every category on the box score. He can score if he needs to, but he
also helped out in other areas and is an excellent defender.
Although he will not transform the team in one year, there is little doubt the
squad will be improved right away.
骑士已经逐渐选进了他们堪用的先发五虎,不过小前锋仍需补强。
奥托波特会是个能填满Box每个字段的完美选择,能攻善守又多功能。
虽然他可能无法在短短一内完全改善球队的体质。
4. Phoenix Suns: Ben McLemore, SG, Kansas
4. 凤凰城太阳: 班麦克勒蒙, 得分后卫, 堪萨斯
Ben McLemore has the talent to be the top overall pick and could end up there
based on team need. As it stands now, however, he should fall to the Phoenix
Suns at No. 4.
Still, he is a great scorer who can get points either at the rim or shooting
from deep, and he will make a big difference on one of the worst offensive
teams in the NBA.
班麦克勒蒙的天赋足以让他成为选秀状元,如果第一顺位签的球队急需他的话。
不过根据NBA现在的排行榜,最终可能会以第四顺位落脚凤凰城。
就算如此,他仍然是个超强得分手,远投近切样样行,
可以对NBA最贫攻球队之一的太阳帮上大忙。
5. New Orleans Hornets: Victor Oladipo, SG, Indiana
5. 纽澳良黄蜂: 维克多欧拉迪波, 得分后卫, 印地安娜
Eric Gordon has not lived up to expectations with the Hornets so far. He is
almost always injured and is incredibly inefficient when he is on the court.
Although Gordon is unlikely to go anywhere, grabbing Victor Oladipo would give
the team some options as a smart player who is also the best on-ball defender
in the class.
The Indiana star could also play wing if needed, which would give the Hornets
more production offensively.
艾瑞克戈登直到目前还完全不符黄蜂的预期,
总是痛痛上不了场,上了场效率又低到不行。
虽然戈登现阶段不像会离队(?),收进维克多欧拉迪波仍然能让球队
多出个同领域中聪明又最精于对球防守的家伙。
如有必要,印地安纳出身的球员也是能打侧翼的,
足以让黄蜂的尾针更尖利。
6. Detroit Pistons: Trey Burke, PG, Michigan
6. 底特律活塞: 崔柏克, 控卫, 密西根
Trey Burke is a bit undersized for a point guard at 6'0", but anyone who
watched him during the NCAA tournament should want him on their favorite team.
The point guard simply does everything necessary to help his team win and has
the ability to be a star at the next level.
虽然身为控卫才6呎是有点矮小,
不过没有人在看了他在NCAA的表现之后会不希望球队能选进他的。
能做控卫该做的所有事情来帮助球队赢球,
足以成为一个更上层楼的球星。
7. Sacramento Kings: Anthony Bennett, PF, UNLV
7. 沙加冕度国王: 安东尼柏奈特, 大前锋, UNLV
In last year's draft, the Kings drafted power forward Thomas Robinson with the
No. 5 pick, but they already sent him away at the trade deadline.
Anthony Bennett will be a second chance as someone who is versatile enough to
play small forward also if needed. With his great athleticism and shooting
ability, he should be able to stick around for at least longer than the last
pick.
上年国王以第五顺位签选进了汤玛斯罗宾森,但他们已经把他送走了。
安东尼柏奈特会是第二次机会,让他们可以拥有机动力足以打小前锋的球员,
并且还拥有射程,至少应该比上一个家伙还值得以他为核心。
8. Washington Wizards: Alex Len, C, Maryland
8. 华盛顿巫师: 亚历克斯莲, 中锋, 马里兰
It is clear that the Wizards are set in the backcourt for the near future with
John Wall and Bradley Beal, but they need a lot of help up front.
This would be a good opportunity for the team to go local and select
Maryland's Alex Len to solve the needs at center.
巫师已经确立了以约翰沃尔和布莱德利毕尔为主的后场,
不过前场还有待加强。
选进马里兰出身的亚历克斯莲会是个追求在地化和中锋的好时机。
9. Minnesota Timberwolves: Shabazz Muhammad, SF, UCLA
9. 明尼苏达灰狼: 撒巴兹默罕莫德, 小前锋, 加大洛杉矶分校
While Shabazz Muhammad has dropped down boards in recent weeks, he still has
plenty of ability as a pure scorer that will translate to the next level.
Minnesota's biggest need is simply someone who can put points on the board on
a consistent basis. If you give Muhammad the opportunity, he will be able to do
that for any NBA team.
虽然撒巴兹默罕莫德的顺位在几周内降低了,他仍然有足够的天赋成为一个
更上层楼的纯得分手。
明尼苏达要的很单纯,就是一个可以稳定得分的家伙。
给默罕莫德一个机会,他便能为任何球队作到这点。
10. Oklahoma City Thunder (from Toronto Raptors): Cody Zeller, C, Indiana
10. 奥克拉荷马雷霆(来自多伦多暴龙): 科迪杰勒, 中锋, 印地安娜
Allowing one of the best teams in the NBA to draft in the lottery is almost
unfair for the rest of the league. Still, the Thunder have this opportunity to
improve and will be able to by drafting Cody Zeller.
The center has a polished game for his age and his ability to run the floor
will be perfect for the fast-paced attack in Oklahoma City.
让联盟中一个顶级的球队拥有乐透签真的是太靠北了。
而雷霆现正就是这么靠北,有机会靠选进科迪杰勒来更上一层楼。
这个中锋打出的比赛在他这年纪来说真的是太耀眼了。
让机动性不错的他加入打快速战的雷霆真是如虎添翼完美融合。
