NBA fans should start focusing on college players at this time of the year, as
their decisions will make a big impact on the next professional season.
在今年的此刻，球迷們可以開始聚焦於這些大學球員了。
他們的選擇會對下個NBA球季造成巨大的震盪。
Underclassmen have until April 28 to declare for the 2013 NBA draft (via
NBA.com). However, many college stars have already publicly stated that they
will end their collegiate careers early.
這些新人必須等到4月28日才能真正報名2013年NBA選秀會，
不過已經有不少超新星公開宣布將提前結束他們的大學籃球生涯。
Most recently, top prospect Nerlens Noel announced on the University of
Kentucky website that he will leave after one year at the school. There was
some debate whether he would return to school after tearing his ACL during the
season, but it is now clear that he will move on to the NBA.
稍早前，最被看好的諾倫斯諾爾在肯塔基大學
官網上已經宣布，他將離開待了一年的母校。
在他因為ACL的傷勢影響而提前結束球季之後，
有些看法認為他將先留校養傷，不過現在已經非常確定他將揮軍直指NBA。
This decision affects the entire draft, as he is projected to be one of the
top players selected. Here is an updated mock draft following Monday's news.
這一決定將重重的影響整個選秀會，畢竟他可是預計要成為選秀狀元的人。
根據週一的新聞，以下是最新的模擬選秀清單。
1. Charlotte Bobcats: Nerlens Noel, C, Kentucky
1. 夏洛特山貓: 肯塔基, 中鋒, 諾倫斯諾爾
Despite the fact that he missed the last month of the season to a knee injury,
Nerlens Noel has enough pure talent to be selected with the top overall pick.
Charlotte needs help pretty much everywhere on the floor after another
terrible season. While the squad has some scorers, the frontcourt is miserable.
就算他因為膝蓋傷勢而缺席最後一個月的賽事，
仍然擁有足夠明確的天賦而優先中選。
在度過又一個糟糕的球季之後，山貓不管在哪個位置上都求才若渴。
他們已經有了些得分手，不過前場要寫個慘字。
Noel will help improve the defense immediately with his ability to block shots
and bring down rebounds. Eventually, he will also be able to contribute on the
offensive end once he develops more technique.
The Bobcats can afford to let the center be brought along slowly over the next
year or more.
選進能夠蓋火鍋和搶籃板的諾爾對防守將有立竿見影之效。
等他發展出更多技術，假以時日甚至能在進攻有所貢獻。
山貓可以給這個中鋒一年或更多的時間來慢慢成長。
2. Orlando Magic: Marcus Smart, PG, Oklahoma State
2. 奧蘭多魔術: 奧克拉荷馬州立, 控衛, 馬庫斯史瑪特
The Magic have some solid young players in the frontcourt, but they need a
point guard to bring it all together. Marcus Smart is a bit inconsistent, but
his size and athleticism will allow him to succeed at the next level.
If he can become a better shooter, Smart could be an All-Star in a few years.
魔術已經有些能幹的前場球員，但仍急需一個控衛來團結他們。
馬庫斯史馬特有點起伏不定，不過身材和體能可以帶領他更上一層樓。
如果能長出外線，他會是未來幾年的全明星。
3. Cleveland Cavaliers: Otto Porter, SF, Georgetown
3. 克里夫蘭騎士: 喬治城, 小前鋒, 奧托波特
Cleveland has been slowly solidifying its starting lineup through the draft,
but it still needs a lot of help at small forward.
Otto Porter would be the perfect match for this team as someone who can fill
up almost every category on the box score. He can score if he needs to, but he
also helped out in other areas and is an excellent defender.
Although he will not transform the team in one year, there is little doubt the
squad will be improved right away.
騎士已經逐漸選進了他們堪用的先發五虎，不過小前鋒仍需補強。
奧托波特會是個能填滿Box每個欄位的完美選擇，能攻善守又多功能。
雖然他可能無法在短短一內完全改善球隊的體質。
4. Phoenix Suns: Ben McLemore, SG, Kansas
4. 鳳凰城太陽: 班麥克勒蒙, 得分後衛, 堪薩斯
Ben McLemore has the talent to be the top overall pick and could end up there
based on team need. As it stands now, however, he should fall to the Phoenix
Suns at No. 4.
Still, he is a great scorer who can get points either at the rim or shooting
from deep, and he will make a big difference on one of the worst offensive
teams in the NBA.
班麥克勒蒙的天賦足以讓他成為選秀狀元，如果第一順位籤的球隊急需他的話。
不過根據NBA現在的排行榜，最終可能會以第四順位落腳鳳凰城。
就算如此，他仍然是個超強得分手，遠投近切樣樣行，
可以對NBA最貧攻球隊之一的太陽幫上大忙。
5. New Orleans Hornets: Victor Oladipo, SG, Indiana
5. 紐澳良黃蜂: 維克多歐拉迪波, 得分後衛, 印地安娜
Eric Gordon has not lived up to expectations with the Hornets so far. He is
almost always injured and is incredibly inefficient when he is on the court.
Although Gordon is unlikely to go anywhere, grabbing Victor Oladipo would give
the team some options as a smart player who is also the best on-ball defender
in the class.
The Indiana star could also play wing if needed, which would give the Hornets
more production offensively.
艾瑞克戈登直到目前還完全不符黃蜂的預期，
總是痛痛上不了場，上了場效率又低到不行。
雖然戈登現階段不像會離隊(?)，收進維克多歐拉迪波仍然能讓球隊
多出個同領域中聰明又最精於對球防守的傢伙。
如有必要，印地安納出身的球員也是能打側翼的，
足以讓黃蜂的尾針更尖利。
6. Detroit Pistons: Trey Burke, PG, Michigan
6. 底特律活塞: 崔柏克, 控衛, 密西根
Trey Burke is a bit undersized for a point guard at 6'0", but anyone who
watched him during the NCAA tournament should want him on their favorite team.
The point guard simply does everything necessary to help his team win and has
the ability to be a star at the next level.
雖然身為控衛才6呎是有點矮小，
不過沒有人在看了他在NCAA的表現之後會不希望球隊能選進他的。
能做控衛該做的所有事情來幫助球隊贏球，
足以成為一個更上層樓的球星。
7. Sacramento Kings: Anthony Bennett, PF, UNLV
7. 沙加冕度國王: 安東尼柏奈特, 大前鋒, UNLV
In last year's draft, the Kings drafted power forward Thomas Robinson with the
No. 5 pick, but they already sent him away at the trade deadline.
Anthony Bennett will be a second chance as someone who is versatile enough to
play small forward also if needed. With his great athleticism and shooting
ability, he should be able to stick around for at least longer than the last
pick.
上年國王以第五順位籤選進了湯瑪斯羅賓森，但他們已經把他送走了。
安東尼柏奈特會是第二次機會，讓他們可以擁有機動力足以打小前鋒的球員，
並且還擁有射程，至少應該比上一個傢伙還值得以他為核心。
8. Washington Wizards: Alex Len, C, Maryland
8. 華盛頓巫師: 亞歷克斯蓮, 中鋒, 馬里蘭
It is clear that the Wizards are set in the backcourt for the near future with
John Wall and Bradley Beal, but they need a lot of help up front.
This would be a good opportunity for the team to go local and select
Maryland's Alex Len to solve the needs at center.
巫師已經確立了以約翰沃爾和布萊德利畢爾為主的後場，
不過前場還有待加強。
選進馬里蘭出身的亞歷克斯蓮會是個追求在地化和中鋒的好時機。
9. Minnesota Timberwolves: Shabazz Muhammad, SF, UCLA
9. 明尼蘇達灰狼: 撒巴茲默罕莫德, 小前鋒, 加大洛杉磯分校
While Shabazz Muhammad has dropped down boards in recent weeks, he still has
plenty of ability as a pure scorer that will translate to the next level.
Minnesota's biggest need is simply someone who can put points on the board on
a consistent basis. If you give Muhammad the opportunity, he will be able to do
that for any NBA team.
雖然撒巴茲默罕莫德的順位在幾週內降低了，他仍然有足夠的天賦成為一個
更上層樓的純得分手。
明尼蘇達要的很單純，就是一個可以穩定得分的傢伙。
給默罕莫德一個機會，他便能為任何球隊作到這點。
10. Oklahoma City Thunder (from Toronto Raptors): Cody Zeller, C, Indiana
10. 奧克拉荷馬雷霆(來自多倫多暴龍): 科迪傑勒, 中鋒, 印地安娜
Allowing one of the best teams in the NBA to draft in the lottery is almost
unfair for the rest of the league. Still, the Thunder have this opportunity to
improve and will be able to by drafting Cody Zeller.
The center has a polished game for his age and his ability to run the floor
will be perfect for the fast-paced attack in Oklahoma City.
讓聯盟中一個頂級的球隊擁有樂透籤真的是太靠北了。
而雷霆現正就是這麼靠北，有機會靠選進科迪傑勒來更上一層樓。
這個中鋒打出的比賽在他這年紀來說真的是太耀眼了。
讓機動性不錯的他加入打快速戰的雷霆真是如虎添翼完美融合。
