The Best Shooters So Far
2013-14球季至今效率最佳得分手
（簽名檔有部落格圖文好讀版）
Who are the best shooters in the league this year? Below is the answer,
according to theShotScore metric we introduced earlier this season. Also, I
imposed a few criteria: I only considered players who are healthy (which,
sadly, disqualified Al Horford, who was having a tremendous year) and have at
least 300 field goal attempts (which disqualified the amazing Kyle Korver and
the rapidly ascendant Marco Belinelli, who both narrowly missed that
threshold).
誰是這季聯盟中最有效率的得分手？下面就是解答。在「分數剩餘－了解NBA最佳
得分手的新方法」這篇文中，介紹了ShotScore這個新數據的意涵（想要先了解
ShotScore務必先看那篇文）。同時，這份名單有幾個標準。我只放進健康的球員
（因為這個標準，打出生涯年的Al Horford失去了資格，真的很令人難過），而
且球員必須至少出手300次（因為這個標準，驚人的Kyle Korver和快速上衝的
Marco Belinelli也失去資格。而他們兩位只差一些就能達成這個門檻）

I always say that the hardest part about shooting in the NBA is actually
getting a shot off, something normal people and many NBA players have trouble
doing. With that in mind, 104 players have attempted at least 300 shots this
year — here are the top-five shooters of that group.
我總是說在NBA得分最難的地方，在於獲得出手機會，這對一般人和大多數NBA球員
來說都不容易。把前面的話記在心中後，來看看今年目前出手至少300球的104位球
員，以下是最佳得分手前五名。
1. LeBron James (ShotScore per 100 shots: +21)
http://ppt.cc/NHoc
There’s no basketball player on the planet who is better than James. It’s
fitting then, that as a scorer, James continues to assert his ridiculous
dominance in the league’s most important spot — near the basket. This
season, 39 players have attempted at least 200 field goals inside of eight
feet. Only one of these players has made more than 66 percent of his shots;
that would be James, who has made almost 77 percent of those shots. That’s
insane.
James是現在地表最強籃球員。他在得分方面也表現的像個地表最強球員，James
持續的在聯盟中最重要的聖地－籃下，展現他誇張的統治力。這季，39位球員在
離籃框八呎的距離出手至少200球，只有一位球員的命中率超過66%。這人就是
James，而他八呎內的命中率是77%。太變態了！
2. Dirk Nowitzki (ShotScore per 100 shots: +20)
http://ppt.cc/9bp4
It’s nice to have a full-fledged Nowitzki back in our lives. As you can see,
Nowitzki isn’t afraid to shoot the basketball. And, like James, he produces
points at incredibly anomalous rates — but unlike James, Nowitizki’s
freakish efficiency is away from the basket. He’s been on fire again
(figuratively, thank goodness) from midrange. This season, 27 NBA players
have attempted at least 200 midrange shots, but Nowitzki is the only one of
them making 50 percent of those attempts. What’s crazy is that he is the
most efficient midrange shooter in the game despite the high level of
difficulty associated with most of his attempts; he constantly creates his
own shots in the face of defenders who are expecting him to do that exact
thing.
球技成熟的Nowitzki能回到我們的球賽中實在太好了。就如同你所見，Nowitzki不
害怕投籃。而就像James一般，他的得分效率是既驚人又破格的。然而，和James不
一樣的是，Nowitzki的噁心效率是在遠離籃框的地方。他中距離的手感火的發燙。
這季，有27位NBA球員在中距離出手至少200球，但只有Nowitzki的命中率超過50%
。更瘋狂的是，儘管他大多數的出手難度都很高，他依舊是聯盟中最有效率的中距
離射手。他在準備要避免被射滿臉的防守者面前，不停的顏射他們。
Nowitzki has been awesome in all his usual spots this year but has been the
best in the league near the left baseline, where he is making 56 percent of
his shots.
Nowitzki今年在他習慣的位置都表現優異，但他在左邊底線附近的位置是聯盟最
佳，有著56%的命中率。
3. Jose Calderon (ShotScore per 100 shots: +20)
http://ppt.cc/WOpT
If you love good jump-shooters, than you should be watching the Mavericks
this year, because aside from Nowitzki, they also have one of the best
shooting point guards in the entire league. No matter what city he finds
himself in, Calderon continues to put up extremely efficient shooting
numbers. This season is no exception. As usual, Calderon is hitting 3s at
crazy rates, and — with all due respect to Stephen Curry (that’s a lot, by
the way) — Calderon is the most efficient 3-point-shooting point guard in
the league right now. He’s great from everywhere, but especially from the
spots you need your point guard to be great from: above the break. He also
shies away from midrange shots, and as a result, his shot chart is the kind
of thing that makes Daryl Morey drool.
如果你熱愛好的跳投射手，那你可要看今年的小牛隊。因為除了Nowitzki外，小牛
隊也有聯盟中最好的射手控衛之一。無論在哪支球隊，Calderon持續的在投籃數據
上有著效率極高的表現。這季當然也不意外。Calderon以瘋狂的效率砍進三分，我
並沒有要冒犯Stephen Curry的意思（順道一提，我非常尊敬Curry），Calderon是
目前聯盟中最有效率的三分射手控衛。他在任何一處都很棒，但在球隊需要控衛三
分準的地方－弧頂，他特別優異。他也減少中距離的出手次數，因此，他的出手分
佈就是那種讓Daryl Morey流口水的類型。
4. Wes Matthews (ShotScore per 100 shots: +16)
http://ppt.cc/uoT~
Portland is the best story of the year so far, and one big reason why is its
long-range shooting. Matthews is having a fantastic year shooting the ball,
and he should be in the discussion for most improved player. Simply put,
Matthews has been great beyond the arc, but much of that greatness is along
the left wing and in the left corner, where he is arguably the best shooter
in the league this year.
拓荒者隊是這季目前為止聯盟中最佳的話題，而其中一個重要原因就是他們的外線
表現。Matthews今年是投籃生涯年，而且他應該被放在最佳進步獎的討論名單之中
。簡言之，Matthews在三分線的表現非常優異。但之所以優異是由於左邊側翼和底
角的好表現，他在那兩處可以說是今年的聯盟最佳射手。
5. Arron Afflalo (ShotScore per 100 shots: +12)
http://ppt.cc/DKHI
How good could this guy be on a good team? Let’s hope we find out. Afflalo
is quietly have a monster shooting year despite playing on the second-worst
team in the NBA. He should also make the All-Star team, but his low Q-score
and his Orlando address may prevent him from “earning” that accolade.
Still, by the numbers — and especially by his relatively cheap contract —
Afflalo is one of the best shooting bargains in the world right now, and
he's consequently the subject of a lot of trade talks. In the right uniform,
he could be a real difference-maker down the stretch. He can score from
anywhere, but he’s particularly great from the baselines in the midrange,
where many teams struggle to produce.
這傢伙在一支好球隊可以表現多好？希望我們能知道答案。Afflalo儘管身在NBA第
二差的球隊中，卻默默的有著恐怖的投籃生涯年。他也應該被選進全明星隊，但他
偏低的Q-score和身在魔術隊可能使他無法「贏得」那份榮耀。就他的數據，加上
相對來說低廉的合約，他是現今世界得分球員中最好的一筆合約。同時，他也因此
成為相當多交易談判中的主要籌碼。在正確的球隊中，他可能在關鍵時刻成為真正
決定比賽的人物。他在哪都可以得分，但他在底線中距離尤其優秀，而這也是許多
球隊難以得分的區塊。
According to ShotScore, those are the top five volume shooters in the league.
Of course, this is only one way to evaluate shooting and we’re only a third
of the way through the season, so this is all subject to change. Many players
just missed the cut, so lest you think I overlooked somebody, here’s a
healthy list of honorable mentions who are very close to the top of
leaderboard: Korver, Belinelli, Klay Thompson, Chris Bosh, Kevin Durant,
Dwyane Wade, Curry, and, of course, Gerald Green (WTF!).
根據ShotScore這個數據，以上就是聯盟中大量出手的得分球員裡，最佳的五位。
當然，這只是評估得分的分式之一，而且球季也才進行三分之一。所以，這數據
還很有可能會改變。很多球員差一點就能上榜，所以避免你們認為我忽略某些人
，以下是值得一提的幾位球員，他們離前幾名相去不遠：Koever、Belinelli、
Klay Thompson、Chris Bosh、Kevin Durant、Dwyane Wade、Curry和Gerald
Green（真的假的！）。

心得：
作者由季初的ShotScore分析法，來看這季目前得分效率最好的選手
其實上前五名和被提到的人都滿不意外的
畢竟要有好的得分效率，不外乎就是要「準」跟「好的出手選擇」
而後者，常常代表著球員要知道自己哪裡出手舒服
並且多在那個區塊出手
有機會的話，可以把這季得分排行榜前幾位的shot chart擺上來給大家
