Spurs coach Gregg Popovich jokes about LaMarcus Aldridge all of a sudden
firing up 3-pointers
马刺总教练Gregg Popovich开玩笑讲到LaMarcus Aldridge最近忽然大爆发的三分球
San Antonio Spurs big man LaMarcus Aldridge has never been much of a 3-point
shooter. The seven-time All-Star had never taken more than 28 triples in a
single season prior to the 2014-15 campaign, and the last Aldridge attempted
was a mere 42 treys.
马刺大个LaMarcus Aldridge从来就不是个典型三分射手，不过七届全明星在2014-15赛季
之前从来没出手超过28次，上个赛季他也只尝试了42次。
This season has been a vastly different story. Aldridge has converted
40-of-88 triples through just 35 games, numbers that prompt Spurs head coach
Gregg Popovich to suggest he is coaching Aldridge’s “twin:”
但是本季就完全不一样了，35场比赛，Aldridge出手88次，投进40球。那数据让波总开玩
笑说，他现在教的是Aldridge的"双胞胎兄弟"：
ESPN记者Tim Bontemps推特: https://tinyurl.com/yxyucka4
"Gregg Popovich jokingly says he isn’t coaching the suddenly firing away from
3-point range LaMarcus Aldridge these days, but “his twin.” What does he
think of him? “He’s a hell of a guy.”"
“波总开玩笑的说他不是教最近三分球大爆发的LaMarcus Aldridge，是在教他的"双胞胎
兄弟"。波总被问到觉得他打得如何时，他说，‘他打得真好。’”
Aldridge’s previous career high for 3-point attempts per game was 1.5, but
he is averaging 2.5 threes per game so far this 2019-20 campaign.
Aldridge之前生涯最高平均每场三分出手只有1.5次，但是本季他的平均出手次数就上升
到2.5次了。
The 34-year-old is averaging fewer points (19.2) than he did last season
(21.3) with the Spurs, and yet he is currently running the highest Effective
Field Goal percentage (.548) of his career.
尽管他本季场均19.2分比他上一季21.3分少，但是他的生涯eFG% 54.8趴却是生涯新高。
San Antonio has never been a franchise predicated on perimeter offense. Quite
the opposite, actually. Popovich had the luxury of running his offense
through Tim Duncan for over a decade, surrounding the legendary big man with
slashers like Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili.
马刺从来就不是以外线为主的球队，而且是恰恰相反。波总用Tim Duncan来主导进攻超过
十年，旁边用Tony Parker跟Manu Ginobili进攻篮框。
However, the shortage of perimeter shooting has been very evident this
season. The Spurs are dead-last in 3-point attempts, which slightly negates
the fact that they also rank in the top three in terms of 3-point percentage.
然而，本季马刺外线的缺乏极为明显，马刺在联盟三分球尝试次数是排名最后，不过他们
在三分球命中率却是排名联盟前三。
Aldridge’s ability to become more of a stretch-four is pivotal not only
because it adds another element to the Spurs’ offense, but also because it
spaces the floor for the likes of DeMar DeRozan, whose game is based
primarily on midrange scoring.
Aldridge有能力可以成为一个延伸4号，这对马刺增加一个进攻点来说非常重要，另外他也
可以拉开场上空间，帮助像是DeMar DeRozan这样主要以中距离为主的球员。
Unfortunately for San Antonio, LaMarcus Aldridge’s development as a
perimeter threat does absolutely nothing to solve one of the worst team
defenses in the league.
很不幸的是，LaMarcus Aldridge培养出外线投射能力并没有办法帮助到目前联盟防守最差
之一的马刺。
The Spurs currently rank 24th in defensive rating, according to Basketball
Reference, and it will be tough to climb back over the .500 mark should they
fail to get stops.
根据Basketball Reference的资料，马刺防守排名第24位，若是没有改善的话，要爬到
.500是有点难度的。
