Knicks coach David Fizdale introduces Kevin Knox to LeBron James postgame
尼克總教練David Fizdale在湖-尼戰賽後介紹Kevin Knox給LeBron James
There are definitely some perks when it comes to playing for LeBron James’
old coach. New York Knicks head coach David Fizdale’s time as an assistant
coach with the Miami Heat overlapped with James’ tenure, and the two have
remained close. Sunday, after the Knicks beat the Los Angeles Lakers when
Mario Hezonja blocked James’ game-winning attempt at the buzzer, Fizdale
introduced King James to Knicks rookie wing Kevin Knox.
替LBJ的前教練打球一定會有一些額外的好處。尼克總教練David Fizdale曾在熱火當助理
教練時與LBJ在熱火打球的時間有交集,從那之後兩人就關係密切。星期天在Mario
Hezonja賞了LBJ一個時間終了前的勝利火鍋助尼克贏下比賽後,Fizdale介紹尼克菜鳥側翼
Kevin Knox給LBJ。
Knox’s family was in town and didn’t believe he would have time for the
meeting, but Fizdale made sure that last year’s ninth overall pick didn’t
leave The Garden without coming face-to-face with James. Fizdale had been
wanting Knox to meet James, hoping the NBA legend would offer the rookie some
advice, but he hadn’t been successful in connecting the two until Sunday.
Knox的家人也在紐約,他們不敢相信Knox會有時間碰到LBJ,但是Fizdale確保這去年第九
順位在沒跟LBJ碰到面之前不可以離開球館。Fizdale一直希望LBJ這位傳奇人物可以給這位
菜鳥一些建議,但是一直到比賽的這一天才把兩個人拉到一起。
The game featured a very early start, but Knox seemed wide awake, putting up
13 points in the first quarter and 19 overall. He shot 8-of-14, including
3-of-5 on 3-pointers, a welcome sight for Knicks fans who have had some
well-founded concerns about the young player’s efficiency.
比賽很早就開始,但是Knox似乎是非常清醒,第一節就拿下13分,最後整場拿下19分。投
球14投8中,三分線是5投3中,對於一直對這位菜鳥有一些在打球效率疑問的紐約尼克粉來
說是再歡迎不過了。
“It was good see him play well,” said Fizdale of Knox, per Marc Berman of
the New York Post. “He’s had his ups. We know it’s there. It’s a matter
of the ball going in and getting his confidence up. He came out with mindset
he was going to get out of this today. He was attacking and going after
rebounds.”
「很開心看到他打的不錯,」Fizdale說。「他有他的能力,我們知道,現在就是讓他投的
進球,建立他的信心。他今天上場就已經作好要拿出本事的心理準備,他不停的攻擊,然
後跟進搶籃板。」
Knox won’t turn 20 until this August, so there’s still plenty of time for
him to make the necessary improvements. He’s putting up 12.3 points per
game, but is doing so on 36.5 percent shooting from the floor and 34.4
percent from deep.
Knox要到8月才滿20歲,所以他還有足夠的時間作到需要做的改進,場均12.3分,但是命中
率是36.5趴,三分命中率是34.4趴。
Fizdale had said he wanted to give Knox the opportunity to guard James, but
Hezonja wound up taking on those duties, at least for the most part. The
rookie guarded James just once, but after seeing Hezonja palm LeBron’s
game-winner, it seems the coach made the right choice.
Fizdale說他本想讓Knox有機會去守LBJ,但是後來大部分守LBJ的工作落到了Hezonja身
上。這菜鳥只有守到LBJ一次,但是在看到Hezonja大掌賞了LBJ那個致勝火鍋後,教練
Fizdale似乎作了正確的選擇。
