Domantas Sabonis has improved in a variety of ways this season. One of the
under-appreciated aspects of his improvement has been his passing.
小沙这赛季有着种种进步，其中一项被低估的改变就是他的传球。
Domantas Sabonis‘ improvement as a scorer, rebounder, defender, screener,
and teammate has been huge for the Indiana Pacers this season. Sabonis has
been able to be one of the most effective backup Centers in the league, and
with Myles Turner out with an injury, he has been able to slide into the
starting role with very few hiccups. His improvement and the seamless fit
with any player on the team can be attributed to one of the under-appreciated
aspects of his improvement, his newfound ability as a passer.
小沙变身为一个得分手、篮板手、防守者、掩护者，作为这赛季溜马球员的一员贡献非凡
。
小沙是联盟中最有效率的替补中锋之一，随着Turner受伤缺赛，他必须在仓促之下顶上先
发位置，他的进步以及能够完美配合任何队友，
可以归因于他其中一项被低估的进步层面，他新开发的传球能力。
During his rookie season in Oklahoma City, Sabonis had an assist percentage
of 7.2 percent. This means that he assisted on 7.2 out of every 100 Thunder
made baskets when he was on the floor. For reference, that number is right
between the assist percentage of non-creators Bojan Bogdanovic and Damien
Wilkins this year.
在他的奥克拉荷马新人生涯，小沙的传球得分为7.2%，这代表说小沙在场上他的传球能为
雷霆队所得的100分中贡献7.2分，顺带一提，
这数字正好介于非创造机会的球员Bogdanovic和Wilkins这赛季的传球得分数据。
This year, Sabonis has been wizzing the ball around with a fresh creation
ability. He has an assist percentage of 12.6 percent, which is fifth on the
Pacers and actually better than point guard Joe Young’s figure.
今年，小沙已经借由这新能力在球场上翩翩起舞，他的传球得分来到了12.6%，这在溜马
队排名第五，
甚至比后卫乔洋的数字来的更好。
Leaguewide, this is an incredibly good ability. His greater than 12.5 assist
percentage is very hard to find among big men. In fact, only nine centers in
the entire league have that high of an assist percentage. Their names? Andre
Drummond, Al Horford, Nikola Jokic, DeMarcus Cousins, Joel Embiid, Kelly
Olynyk, Marc Gasol, and Nikola Vucevic. That is a group of excellent
offensive centers and some cerebral ones at that.
放眼联盟，这是一个不可思议的能力，他超越12.5%的传球得分数据在大个子球员中难得
可贵，
事实上，在联盟中只有九位中锋能够有如此高的传球得分，他们的名字？
Andre Drummond, Al Horford, Nikola Jokic, DeMarcus Cousins, Joel Embiid,
Kelly Olynyk, Marc Gasol, and Nikola Vucevic.
这是杰出的进攻型中锋和一些智慧型中锋所组成的集团。
Sabonis is in that group this season . He knows where and when to put the
ball in his teammate’s hands, and he spreads it out more effectively than
most Centers.
小沙在这赛季也是这集团的一员，他知道何处以及何时把球交到他队友手上，他的分球比
多数中锋来的更有效率。
The reasoning for this is that Sabonis has a newfound skill of knowing
exactly what he wants to do with the ball the second he gets it, whether that
be to pass, shoot, or dribble. Here, when he catches it at the top of the
key, he realizes he has an open runway to the rim, so he attacks the space.
He draws the help, and with the defense clamping down, he immediately makes a
perfect pass over to Lance Stephenson in the corner for an easy three:
这是因为当他成为二次持球者时，他非常清楚的知道他该做些什么，
看要是传球、投篮、或著运球。像是这影片，当他在弧顶接到传球，他知道他有着通往篮
框的康庄大道，
所以他持球攻击篮框，接着他吸引到了防守者，防守者让他无法更进一步，他立即传球给
埋伏角落的舞王轻松投进三分。

That decision making from Sabonis is what leads to the basket. The Chicago
Bulls trapped the pick and roll and the Pacers were running into trouble, but
Sabonis’ quick thinking made the basket possible.
小沙的决定引领着进攻，当公牛队阻止了P&R让溜马陷入麻烦时，小沙的果决让这次进攻
发生效果。
A lot of his impressive decision making comes in pick and roll situations,
like that one where he both dribbled and passed. However, he frequently makes
great passes thanks to his chemistry with his teammates. On this one, he
dribbles and leans toward the wing like he is setting up for a dribble
handoff with Victor Oladipo. However, he quickly realizes that a back cut is
happening and puts the pass on a silver platter for Oladipo to score:
他有许多令人印象深刻的play来自于P&R，像刚刚影片中他的运球与传球。
然而，他有许多好传球是源自于他与队友间良好的化学反应，在下面这影片中，他运球以
及靠近侧翼，
像是准备好运球递手传球给Ola。然而，他立即了解到有开后门的机会并精准传球给Ola得
分。

You don’t frequently find that court vision, and anticipation, on big men.
But Sabonis appears to have it.
你不会经常在大个子球员中发现有如此好的球场视野与预期能力，但是小沙很明显拥有着。
心得：
小沙大概是west之后溜马球员中最会传球的大个子。
