No.97
Nerlens Noel
76ers | Forward | Last year: —
Over the course of his rookie season, Noel evolved from an empty void of an
offensive player to an occasionally helpful one. That shift was enough to let
the now 21-year-old’s strengths on defense shine through to top 100 standing.
Very rarely do rookies actually help their teams on defense, an area of the
game where the only means of consistent success is earned acumen. Noel stands
as an exception. Despite his age and inexperience, Noel averaged better than
two steals and two blocks per 36 minutes while terrorizing opponents from the
three-point line in. Rim protectors have no business being this quick on their
feet. That Noel defies the standard allows him to reject shots with lightning-
bolt fury and dart outside to repel guards as needed. – R.M.
作为Noel的第一个菜鸟球季，从毫无贡献到现在的改变足以让他这个21岁的新人以防守进
到前百名，以防守见长的在新人中是十分罕见的。扣除掉他的年纪和不足的经验，场均两
次抄截和两次火锅(Per36)对三分线的对手有着相当大的威胁。一般禁区球员速度是不快的
，然而Noel却能如闪电般去威胁到外围的后卫。
短评: 看他的文字叙述，怎么觉得好像KG年轻时候

No.96
Josh Smith
Clippers | Forward | Last year: 53
A certain amount of noise tends to follow Smith wherever he goes with most of
it snark and sneering in regard to his obvious shortcomings. Smith will take
certain shots he shouldn’t and throw passes out of bounds as if he were
meeting some kind of turnover quota. Yet on balance he’s still the kind of
player who made a good Rockets defense far better while diversifying Houston’s
offense with his playmaking, finishing ability, and streaky shooting from
beyond the arc (34.5% as a Rocket between the regular season and playoffs).
There’s more than enough game here—punctuated by 16.1 points, 8.3 rebounds,
4.3 assists, 1.4 steals, and 1.8 blocks per 36 minutes—to warrant working
through the headaches that Smith might induce. – R.M.
这季伴随着Smith都关于他的缺点，不对的出手时机、不该出现的失误。在攻击端，他的组
织进攻、快攻能力，还有在弧顶的命中率都无法做出贡献。相对的，他的防守还是能帮助
到球队。但其实如果愿意给他更多时间、场次，他是能搞定这些问题的。
(PER36: 16.1分 8.3篮板 4.3助攻 1.4抄截 1.8火锅)
2014-15: 12.4 PPG, 6.4 RPG, 3.3 APG, 1.4 BPG, 41.9 FG%
Advanced: 14.9 PER, Win Shares: 2.3, -0.45 RPM
No.95
Roy Hibbert
Lakers | Center | Last year: 52
What’s more damning: That the Pacers posted a better defensive rating in
2014–15 without Roy Hibbert (100.7) than with him (101.1), or that they traded
the two-time All-Star center to the Lakers this summer for the NBA equivalent
of zilch (a future second-round pick)? Neither fact reflects kindly on Hibbert
, the former Defensive Player of the Year contender who played an integral role
on Indiana’s back-to-back trips to the Eastern Conference finals in 2013 and
2014, but who has also dealt with confidence issues and inconsistency
throughout his seven-year career.
印象中他是防守见长的，然而在2014-2015球季，他在的时候(101.1)却比他缺阵(100.7)的
时候，团队失分更多。这就是为什么他被交易到湖人，而且只换来一个未来二轮。这个
DPOY竞争者在2013-2014球季虽然扮演的重要地角色，但是他还是需要花时间处理他的不稳
定及缺乏自信
Pacers president Larry Bird ultimately concluded this summer that Hibbert’s
signature rim-protection wasn’t enough to overcome his extremely limited
offensive game, his no-show nights on the glass, his lack of agility and
versatility, and his sometimes perplexing personality. The sexy small-ball
revolution only looks like more salt in the wounds for this 7’2’’ behemoth.
As he enters a contract year in L.A., Hibbert won’t only be fending off
Kobe Bryant’s constant glares and working through his own mental baggage,
he’ll also be fighting to prove that traditional big men aren’t quite ready
to cede the floor to undersized, multi-positional talents.
In a best-case scenario, Hibbert rebuilds his market value by resurrecting a
pathetic Lakers defense that has (almost) nowhere to go but up after ranking
No. 29 last year. Indeed, if the Lakers make any meaningful progress protecting
the paint, he should be the first in line—and perhaps the only one in line—
to get the credit, and another rich contract will likely be waiting come July.
In a (more likely) worst-case scenario, Hibbert’s own physical limitations
and matchup problems, the total lack of credible defensive players around
him, and the questionable stewardship of Byron Scott combine to turn Hibbert
into a gigantic punching bag during another dreadful campaign. This same
organization just chewed up and spit out Dwight Howard, so there’s plenty of
reason to doubt that the less-gifted Hibbert will thrive under the scrutiny.
– B.G.
大鸟在今夏判断他保护篮框的表现不足以掩盖他攻击的上的问题。身为7'2的长人，他缺乏
灵敏，又怪异的性格只会伤害球队。因此转战Lakers的他需要好好的处理这块来避免被
kobe盯上，另外他也需要好好来证明他能做到不仅限于传统长人，而是能做到更多位置。
他需要好好找回市场的价值，最好的情况就是他在缺乏长人的湖人中，当球队需要有人来
好好防守油漆区时，他能做出正确的贡献，并为他谋取下一张大约。
最差的情况，受限于他的特质，无法在防守端做出贡献，Byron Scott也不知道怎么运用
变成像当初DH一样。

No.94
Reggie Jackson
Pistons | Guard | Last year: —
Including Reggie Jackson on this list is, admittedly, a speculative decision.
Detroit’s new $80 million point guard has posted a decidedly mediocre track
record during his four-year career, spent largely as Russell Westbrook’s
backup, and the Thunder seemed to lose little sleep in trading him to the
Pistons at the deadline. Finding something that Jackson, 25, has mastered
requires real straining: he’s not an efficient outside shooter, he’s not an
above-average finisher in the basket area, he’s not a standout when it comes
to drawing fouls, he’s not a plus defender, and he’s not the world’s most
natural playmaker for others.
把RJ放在这个名单中是一个值得深思的抉择，在活塞领8千万的他过去是担任西河的替补。
25岁的他：
1.不是个好的外围射手
2.没有平均之上的快攻能力
3.在制造防守者犯规能力不突出
4.不是个好的防守者
5.称不上顶级的组织进攻
So why did Stan Van Gundy hitch his wagon to Jackson, emptying the bank vault
in the process? Because he needs a pick-and-roll point guard to initiate his
spread offense and get the most out of franchise center Andre Drummond.
Jackson looked up to those tasks in averaging 17.6 points and 9.2 assists
after the trade. Detroit posted a strong 106.9 offensive rating with Jackson
on the court, and the Jackson/Drummond pairing posted a +4.4 net rating in
nearly 700 minutes together, albeit in mostly meaningless games down the
stretch of a lottery-bound season. If a revamped Pistons roster can build on
those narrow successes and push into the 2016 playoff chase, Jackson’s
middling reputation should be in line for a boost. – B.G.
那为什么Stan Van Gundy还是把他找来呢?因为他需要一个P&R的控卫来展开进攻
，才能帮助抓猛发挥。交易后他缴出17.6分9.2助攻，他在场上，活塞会得到106.9分，
他与抓猛配合的700多分钟时，有+4.4的表现(虽然这多半是在无意义的比赛中)，因为
已经进乐透区了。如果今年活塞能进季后赛，RJ的表现绝对是重点。

心得：上色好难喔~
