Jeremy Lin Will Have All-Star Caliber Season with Addition of Dwight Howard?
(Commentary)
魔兽加盟后 林书豪将迎来他的全明星赛季?
Frankie Garcia
1. This might be a bit of a stretch, especially when mentioning the words
All-Star and Jeremy Lin in the same sentence. However, Lin will be surrounded
by great players and as a distributor, he should be prepped for a monster
season. In a conference where Russell Westbrooks, Tony Parkers, Chris Pauls
and Mike Conleys exist, it is tough to consider Lin a top tier guard.
Nonetheless, there seems to be enough talent and defined roles in the Houston
Rockets' lineup that will allow Lin to do what he does best; pass and
penetrate.
这样说也许有点言过其实，尤其是要将“全明星”这几个字和林书豪相提并论。但是，
林书豪的周围将会是好手如云，身为进攻上的分配者，他应该做好准备迎接一个惊人的
赛季。在Russell Westbrooks、Tony Parker、Chris Paul和Mike Conley等好手充斥的
西区里，很难让人将林书豪视为顶级后卫，然而在火箭的阵容中，似乎已有足够的篮球
天赋与明确的角色定位，可以让林书豪其所长：传球与切入。
2. The Lin hype slowly dissolved after he started the 2012-2013 season with
the Rockets. He became an average player in a talented roster and saw more
time on the bench than expected. The first step necessary to allow Lin to
grow and create chemistry with his teammates, Coach Kevin McHale has to trust
his point guard. You don't see Erik Spoelstra of the Miami Heat panic when
his team isn't cliquing. The playoffs were a different story for the Heat,
but for the most part during the regular season, Spoelstra stuck to his guns
and let his top players familiarize themselves with their teammates.
在来到火箭与2012-2013赛季开打后，林书豪慢慢地由绚烂归于平淡，他成为在一个有天赋
的阵容中一般水准的球员，而且比预期中有更多时间坐在板凳上。要让林书豪能成长并与
队友能建立默契，首要之务就是总教练Kevin McHale必须信任他的控卫，热火总教练Erik
Spoelstra在球队运作不顺时从未惊慌失措，季后赛对于热火当然不可同日而语，但在例行
赛的大部分时候，Spoelstra都是不为所动，放手让他的主力球员们继续和队友熟悉融合。
3. Coach McHale sat Lin down during the season, giving Patrick Beverley a
bulk of the playing time. He has to understand that the team's point guard
isn't Beverley, the future of the franchise is Lin.
反观McHale教练，在赛季中频频让林书豪枯坐板凳，而将一大部份的上场时间给了Patrick
Beverley，他必须要了解：Beverley不是球队的控卫，林书豪才是球团的未来。
5. Now, with the addition of Dwight Howard, the pick and roll should work
lovely for the Rockets, granted Lin is running the offense. In New York,
until Lin went down to injury and the opponents figured out his gameplan, the
point guard turned players like Tyson Chandler and Steve Novak into stars.
For example, Chandler's first week playing alongside Lin saw him averaging 14
points, nine rebounds and 1.5 blocks per game. Why are rebounds and blocks
important? Chandler felt he was contributing on the offensive end, raising
his level of competition on the defensive end. If you know you're going to
get the ball on the other side of the ball, wouldn't you want to do your best
to get your team more possessions?
现在，有了魔兽的加盟，火箭在执行档拆战术上应该会美妙无比，当然前提是由林书豪
来主导进攻。在纽约时，直到林书豪因伤缺赛以及对手摸清楚他的打法之前，这名控卫让
Tyson Chandler和Steve Novak等人跃身为明星球员，例如：在与林书豪共同上场出赛的
第一周，Tyson Chandler场均数据为14分、9篮板与1.5阻攻，为什么篮板和阻攻很重要？
Chandler觉得他在进攻端有做出贡献，因此也提升在防守端的强度，如果知道自己知道在
另一端可以拿到球，难道不会想尽全力给球队更多持球进攻的机会 (透过防守篮板与阻攻)
？
6. Chandler's example fits well with Howard. With Lin running the point,
Howard could feast on the defensive end knowing Lin will do what he can to
get him the ball when he's running the offense. The Rockets will be able to
spread the floor and that's when Lin is most dangerous.
Chandler的例子完全可以运用在Howard身上，由林书豪来控球，Howard在防守端会火力
全开毫无保留，因为他知道林书豪在主导进攻时，会尽其所能将球送到他手上，火箭在
进攻上可将空间拉开，这也是林书豪最具杀伤力的时候。
7. In Basketball-Reference.com, Lin is projected to score just a little fewer
than 16 points and seven assists per game. I'll go the extra mile and say
he'll be averaging closer to a double-double, scoring around 13 points, but
averaging somewhere between eight and nine assits per game. Lin is coming off
a season where he averaged 13.4 points and 6.1 assists per game. With a
stacked lineup, Lin's stats should only improve. Whether he makes the
all-star game or not, Lin will be one of the more dominant points in the
2013-2014 season.
在 Basketball-Reference.com (篮球参考资料) 网站上，林书豪的新球季场均资料被预估
为稍低于16分(15.7)与7助攻(6.9)，我大胆地预测，他的场均数据将会接近双十：得分
在13分上下，而助攻则介于场均8到9次，林书豪在刚打完的赛季缴出场均13.4分及6.1助攻
的成绩单，搭配目前的完整阵容，林书豪的数据只会更加亮眼。在2013-2014球季，不管
是否能挤身全明星赛，林书豪将会是场上较具有主宰力的控卫之一。
