George Hill
Pacers | Guard | Last year: —
There are two George Hills. One is an unassuming caretaker who works best along
side a star perimeter player, spending most of his offensive possessions
spotting up and cutting away from the ball. He swings between both guard spots
to handle the toughest defensive assignments and, in the process, relieve his
backcourt counterpart.
George Hills有两个型态，一个是谦卑的辅佐明星的中距离发动进攻的球员。把所有的进
攻摆在定点射手及切入。他在双能卫的位子切换，并接下最困难的防守任务，防守他对位
的人。
The other was affectionately dubbed “Indiana George” by Spurs coach Gregg
Popovich. What separates the two is abandon; “Indiana George” was named as
such in honor of Hill’s senior season at IUPUI, in which the guard we’ve
come to know as a model of restraint exploded as a slashing, dynamic,
22-point-per-game scorer. Hill had never been able to tap back into that zone
consistently as a pro until last season, when he returned midseason to a Pacers
team that had lost Paul George and let Lance Stephenson walk in free agency.
Hill took over. In his abbreviated season, Hill launched around screens to
give Indiana the creative sustenance it desperately needed; without him, the
Pacers’ offense cratered by nine points per 100 possessions, per NBA.com.
另一个则是被popovich称为Indiana George，他在IUPUI的第四年被冠上这样的荣耀。
当时他，以每场22分的闪电般解除限制般的爆发。
然而上季前，他都没办法持续地回到那个状态，直到上季，溜马失去了Paul George，舞王
变FA，他才接管了比赛。在上季，他发起了许多掩护来制造溜马所需的攻击机会。没有他
，溜马每一百次攻击将会少掉9分。
Hill, meanwhile, scored 19.6 points, notched 6.3 assists, and grabbed 5.1
rebounds per 36 minutes despite working his way back from injury and into the
mix of a changed roster. This was Indiana George realized. The realities of
the Pacers’ roster had demanded that Hill be something other than the
wallflower he had been previously and he responded with the most significant
output of his career. He could still space the floor if need be (Hill ranked
in the 96th percentile of spot-up shooters last season, per Synergy Sports)
and continued the taxing work of picking up the best guards in the league,
night after night. Hill merely did so while making it his business to
manufacture offense—expanding his value in newfound application. – R.M.
在他伤愈回到大幅改变的球队后，他缴出了Per36:19.6分、6.3助攻、5.1篮板的成绩。
他发现溜马希望他可以做更多，而不只是以前的定点射手。他还是可以做好以前的工作，
但他可以像后来这样组织进攻，大幅扩展他的价值。

No.79
Brandon Knight
Suns | Guard | Last year: —
Knight’s numbers fell off a cliff when he was traded to the Suns, as he
dealt with an ankle injury that would end his season in mid-March and require
surgery in April. Despite that inauspicious beginning in the desert, and
lingering questions about his fit alongside Eric Bledsoe, Knight nevertheless
received a gigantic seal of approval from Suns GM Ryan McDonough in the form
of a five-year, $70 million contract in July. Those five months certainly
qualify as a disorienting rollercoaster.
Knight的名次在他被交易到太阳之后大幅掉落，因为他脚踝的伤让他在3月就报销，并在
4月接受手术。即使这样不顺的事情发生，还有跟Bledsoe合不来，七月他还是从太阳GM
McDonough手中得到了一份大约，五年7000万。这五个月以来他的人生起起伏伏，像是云霄飞
车般。
Expectations should be fairly low for the Suns after their off-season overhaul,
giving Knight, 23, plenty of time to get comfortable. A skilled pick-and-roll
playmaker with dependable range and enough passing instincts to get by, Knight
makes sense as an on-ball initiator and off-ball floor-balancer next to
Bledsoe. That theory must become a reality this year. Defensively, Knight must
do a better job at the point of attack, and it’s about time for him to
translate his solid physical tools and quickness into better defensive numbers.
Last season, he ranked outside the top 50 among point guards in Defensive
Real Plus-Minus, and Michael Carter-Williams, his replacement in Milwaukee,
bested Knight’s defensive rating after the trade. If things break right and
Knight returns to good health, he should be in the mix as a top-15 point guard
by the end of the season. – B.G.
太阳休赛季的补强之差，23岁的Brandon Knight需要花些时间来适应。一个有能力P&R的
组织者，有一定的传球能力及视野。他能在持球发动和无球跑动之间与Bledsoe合作。
这样的理论今年应该要实现。防守端，Knight应该做的更好，将他的体格加上速度转换成
防守。上季他的防守在控卫中排五十名以外，而取代他在公鹿的MCW在转队后防守变得比
Knight还好了。如果事事顺利，健康回归的话，Knight应该可以跃升为联盟前15控。

No.78
Tobias Harris
Magic | Forward | Last year: —
Tobias Harris cashed in on a career year in 2014–15 to take home a four-year,
$64 million near-max contract with the Magic. But who, exactly, did the
Magic secure? One of the NBA’s most prolific young scorers? An inexperienced
starter who has yet to play real minutes on a winner or make the playoffs? A
quasi-combo forward who might be able to play two positions well but also
might be stuck between positions? Yes, yes, and yes.
去年生涯年的表现让Harris得到了一份4年6400万的接近顶薪的合约。但魔术有风险吗?
NBA的年轻得分好手? 对
一个从来没有在有竞争力的球队打球，也没打过季后赛的人? 对
一个能打双前锋的人，但是有时也会两个位置都打不好的人? 对
The 6’8” Harris was one of just four age-22 or younger players to average
at least 17 points a game last season (joining No. 1 overall picks Anthony
Davis and Kyrie Irving, and teammate Victor Oladipo), and he has the makings
of a solid all-around scoring game that features doses of post-ups, spot-up
shooting from outside, one-on-one attacks off the dribble, and pick-and-roll
opportunities. At the same time, he didn’t exactly set the nets ablaze with
his efficiency, and he stacked up his numbers in dozens of meaningless games
for a 25-win team that fired coach Jacque Vaughn midseason. If his scoring
acumen still needs to be validated, his defense is probably due for an
overhaul under new coach Scott Skiles. Harris ranked 72nd at his position in
Defensive Real Plus-Minus last season, and the Magic, who ranked No. 25 in
defensive efficiency, were nearly four points worse on that end with him on the
court.
There’s a very real “To be determined” quality hanging over Harris, who
needs to show the world that the Magic re-signed him because he was a legit
keeper, and not just someone they were afraid to lose for nothing. – B.G.
6'8的Harris是四个在22岁以下去年平均能得至少17分的球员(Anthony Davis、Irving、
Oladipo)，他有全能得分表现，他能做到低位、外围定点射手、自己运球创造得分、P&R。
但是他还没完全展现他的效率，他的成绩是建立在一堆无意义的比赛，一只25胜的球队，
教练还被开除了。为了让他的得分更加有效，改善他的防守是新的教练Scott Skiles的任
务。他去年防守在他的位置排第72，魔术排第25名。他在场上的时候比他不再场上差了四
分。
他还很有潜力，他需要告诉世界魔术续约他是因为他是合理的，而不是一个失败的赌注。
