Jeremy Lin Plays Stellar Defense, Hornets Lose Nail-Biter To Hawks
林書豪防守出色, 但黃蜂在最後關頭敗給了老鷹 http://tinyurl.com/q3fqfaq
If it wasn't for Jeremy Lin’s late-game heroics, the Charlotte Hornets would
have suffered a heavy defeat Sunday. Lin played stellar defense and collected
four assists but it wasn’t enough as the Hornets suffered a heartbreaking
94-92 defeat to the visiting Atlanta Hawks at the Time Warner Cable Arena.
若非林書豪比賽後段那些出色的防守, 上一場黃蜂應該會大比分落敗, 這場比賽林書豪打
出漂亮的防守並有四次助攻, 但仍舊不足以將黃蜂從94-92的客場敗北困境中拯救出來
Lin, the Hornets’ substitute point guard, had two blocked shots and a steal
besides collecting seven points and two boards off the bench. In the final
quarter, Lin hit a crucial three-pointer, made a few crucial defensive plays
and pushed the tempo to lead Charlotte’s fightback.
以替補PG出發的林書豪, 除了7分2籃板之外, 還有著2次封阻跟1次抄截; 第四節林書豪曾
命中一顆重要的三分, 以及幾次重要的防守, 幫助黃蜂得以保存逆轉戰局的機會
Having started the season 0-3, Lin and the Hornets have a lot of adjustments
to make. “It’s been a disappointing start but it’s a long year and we’ve
got a lot of new guys,” Lin said after the game (Lin’s post-game interview
below).
開季苦吞三連敗後, 林書豪與黃蜂都有著許多要去調整的地方, 林書豪說:"這是個令人失
望的開季, 但季賽還很長而且我們的陣容有著許多的新朋友需要磨合"
On Saturday, Lin told nba.com that he had found a perfect situation in
Charlotte, especially after playing in big markets such as Los Angeles, New
York and Houston. “It’s been a great fit for me,” the point guard said. “
I think Charlotte is definitely a little more low-key than some of the other
cities I’ve played in. But aside from New York, I never really worried too
much about the outside noise. I kind of got used to it. It didn’t really
affect me the way it might have in the past.”
周六林書豪跟nba.com說在歷經LA, NY, Houston等大城市後, 他已經在夏洛特找到最適合
他的位置, 他說:"夏洛特低調舒適, 很適合我, 除了NY之外我都沒真的去擔心太多外在的
聲音, 很習慣這樣了, 過去的種種只留在過去, 不影響我心"
The Sportige wrote that it’s time for Hornets coach Steve Clifford to insert
Lin into the starting unit, considering the struggles of Kemba Walker. “He
(Clifford) needs more of Lin because Kemba Walker is refusing to change. He
shot 5-of-15 from the field in the loss to the Hawks and once again jumbled
up the entire offensive game. Nicolas Batum and Lin were brought in (during
the offseason) so the ball could move, not get glued to the hand of one
inefficient point guard (Walker).”
Sportige寫上面那段時是黃蜂教頭考量到Kemba打得很掙扎, 而引援林書豪入先發陣容的
時候, 教頭Clifford需要林書豪上場做出更多貢獻, 因為Kemba拒絕做出改變, Kemba在
對老鷹的上一場敗北中15投5中, 再一次的整場比賽都在跳投, 簽來Batum跟林書豪就是
為了讓球能多流動, 而非讓球黏在一個無效率的控衛手上
Shockingly, Lin played only 21 minutes. The website further wrote: “Clifford
needs to put Lin on the floor for more minutes. Maybe even start. The Hornets
overall look better when he plays. The Hornets have problems in creativity
and offense in general off the bench, but treating Lin like an upgraded bench
player isn’t going to help the Hornets pick up the pace.”
但令人訝異的, 這場球林書豪只打了21分鐘, Sportige賽後就寫了這麼一段話:"Clifford
需要讓林書豪打更長時間, 甚至讓他先發, 當林書豪在場上時黃蜂整體看來更好; 現在黃
蜂替補陣容雖然有著缺乏創造進攻機會 & 缺乏進攻主軸的問題, 但若只把林書豪當成進
階版的板凳球員對待的話, 對黃蜂重拾進攻節奏來說是沒有幫助的
