Patrick McCaw requests to go to Warriors’ G-League affiliate
McCaw请求下放G-league
OAKLAND — Sensing his shot and overall performance have waned, Warriors
reserve guard Patrick McCaw requested to be sent to the Warriors’ G-League
affiliate in between the team’s next two home games.
感觉到投球跟整体表现有些衰退，勇士替补后卫McCaw请求在接下来的两场主场战之间，
可以下放到勇士G-league队伍去。
Coach Steve Kerr obliged, meaning McCaw will suit up for Santa Cruz against
the Texas Legends on Friday and the South Bay Lakers on Sunday night. He will
still be with the Warriors for Thursday’s game against Dallas and Saturday’
s showdown against San Antonio.
教练Kerr也同意他的请求，代表McCaw会在星期五跟星期日代表勇士G-league队伍Santa
Cruz分别与Texas Legends及South Bay Lakers对战。星期四勇士对战Dallas跟星期六对战
San Antonio时，McCaw还是会随队。
The move gives McCaw an opportunity to get major minutes that he wouldn’t
get otherwise. With the Warriors, his playing time has been sporadic. McCaw
hasn’t scored since Jan. 23 against New York, seven games ago. He has not
hit a 3-pointer since the calendar turned to 2018.
下放让McCaw有机会可以得到比较多的上场时间，随着勇士出赛，他上场机会时有时无。
McCaw在1/23与New York比赛之后到现在已经七场未得分，在2018年开始到现在没投进任何
一个三分球。
“I think it’ll be great for him to get some shots,” Kerr said. “Most
games he only gets a couple shots up and he plays limited minutes so it’s
hard to emerge from, if you want to call it, a slump or a funk.”
“我认为让他去投进一些球对他来说会是很棒的事，”Kerr说。“大部分比赛他只能投几
颗球，打短短的时间，所以若是要从所谓的"低潮"爬出来的话，会有点困难。”
Said McCaw: “If I’m missing, I’ll figure out why I’m missing them and I’
m putting the reps up in practice and shootaround. I feel comfortable with my
shot,” McCaw said. “It’s nothing about me having a bad shot, it’s about
getting those reps and getting those shots up just so I can get a feel for my
release and shots that I’ll be able to take in the game.”
McCaw说：“如果我投不入球，我会想办法了解为什么我会投不进，然后在我的练习跟投篮
练习的时候增加训练。我对我的投球有信心。”McCaw说。“这不代表我的投球变差了，这
只是要让我有机会练习，有机会投球，所以我可以去感觉我的出手状况，我才能把那样的
感觉带进比赛。”
In 2016, the Warriors paid $2.5 million for his rights from the Milwaukee
Bucks in a draft-day trade. McCaw returned the favor in his rookie season,
specifically in Game 2 of the 2017 Western Conference finals when he scored a
career-high 18 points off the bench. That cemented his status as a valuable
piece for the future.
勇士在2016年，用250万镁在选秀那天跟Milwaukee买来McCaw，McCaw也在菜鸟年用优异的
表现回报，尤其是2017年西决第二战他从板凳出发，得了生涯新高18分，也确定了他在勇
士的地位。
This season, with the offseason signing of Nick Young, McCaw has battled for
minutes at backup shooting guard.
然而在这一季，勇士签了老尖，McCaw变得得竞争替补后卫上场时间了。
After a Nov. 2, 2017, win over the San Antonio Spurs, Kerr proclaimed McCaw
the firm backup shooting guard. However, McCaw’s minutes began to drop yet
again in favor of Young. With his latest slump, McCaw acknowledged he was
putting undue pressure on himself.
2017年11/2，勇士击败马刺后，教练Kerr宣告McCaw将会是主要的替补后卫，然而，McCaw
上场的时间却越来越少，老尖的时间越来越多。在这次的低潮，McCaw了解到，他给自己太
多的压力了。
“I’m an infectious guy, I don’t like to make mistakes,” McCaw said. “
Having that on my shoulders as well as trying to make sure I do the right
thing. Just trying to find a balance within myself and my mind when I’m on
the floor.”
“我是个有感染力的球员，我不喜欢犯错，”McCaw说。“想到这些的压力跟想要确定我做
对的事情，当我到场上时，我必须要去找到一个平衡。”
Complicating McCaw’s situation is his impending restricted free agency.
Depending on how he finishes out the year, this second-year slump could hurt
his stock.
让McCaw的状况更加复杂的是他即将到来受限自由球员约。根据他最后表现结果，目前的低
潮有可能会让他的卖相稍差。
Still, McCaw says he remains unfazed by what the future holds.
然而，McCaw对他的未来不为所动。
“I don’t really pay attention,” McCaw said. “For me it’s about finding
that rhythm, finding that flow again and that’s all I’m really concerned
with right now.”
“我没什么在注意那个，”McCaw说。“对我来说，现在就是找到那个节奏，然后跟着节奏
走，那是我现在最关心的事。”
