這是莫雷參加Lowe的廣播的部分內容
At that time of year. Two weeks ago, you started bringing Anderson off the
bench. For a team in 1st, you made a starting lineup change. I like it. How
involved are you in something like that? Are you suggesting it? Reacting to
Mike suggesting it? Not involved at all?
兩個禮拜前, 你們做了陣容改變把RA擺板凳, 我喜歡此舉, 對於像這些改變措施你參與
了多少? 是你去建議的嗎? 是你去建議MDA這樣做的嗎? 還是你完全沒參與呢?
Mike is a very good communicator. I'm reacting to him. "Hey, this is what I'm
planning to do." Answer almost universally is "Sounds great!" He really does
push all the right buttons. He likes how the rotations work. He's working
hard to think through how we're gonna play with a lot of players that he
thinks are good. I agree obviously. Getting Mike to play more than 7 guys is
a challenge. We've gone to 10 or 11.
MDA很善於溝通, 每次他跟我說: "嘿, 我打算這麼做", 我大部分都這麼回應的,
"這聽起來不錯". MDA做了所有正確的決定. 他很喜歡現在的輪換陣容. 他正努力思考
如何搞定球員輪換. 要讓MDA超過7人輪替是一項挑戰. 而我們已經安排到10-11人輪替
This is why you keep signing players. Joe Johnson will be unhappy if he
doesn't play so he has to play.
所以這就是你一直簽約球員的原因? 如果JJ沒辦法打他就會不開心, 所以必須要讓他打?
That is not why we signed him. He had his pick of the litter. Mike being his
former coach was a huge factor. Mike was upfront. "I don't know how much time
we have for you. I know you can help us, especially if we take an injury but
even if not, I'm gonna try & work you in." Joe knew that & said "I'm in. I
love your team, I love you." He played real well yesterday. We're optimistic.
I'm very curious how Mike is gonna do it. It's very out of character for him
to play a lot of guys. Most of the time, it's easy. 8 guys to play? I'll play
8 but he now likes 11-12 of our guys so it's tough for him.
這不是我們簽他的理由. MDA曾經執教過JJ是個很重要的因素. MDA: "我不知道我能給你
多少上場時間, 但我知道你能幫助到我們, 特別是有人受傷時, 即使沒有, 我還是打算
嘗試去用你讓你融入" JJ明白然後說: "我加入, 我愛你的球隊, 我愛你" 他昨天真的
打得很好, 我們都感到樂觀
我很好奇MDA會怎做, 這很簡單, 很多時候他都只用8人輪替. 現在他有11-12個他
很滿意的球員, 安排輪換就很艱難
One reason I like the lineup change is because you're starting 3 wings. One
has to guard the other PF. Sometimes, it's James Harden. I wonder, years ago,
D'Antoni famously said the post up is an inefficient play. When Taj Gibson or
someone starts backing down Harden, are you smiling somewhere?
陣容改變上, 有一點我很喜歡的是用了3個側翼. 其中一個必須要去防PF, 有時候這個人
就是鬍子. 我很疑惑, 一年前MDA曾說過低位是個低效的進攻手段, 而當Taj Gibson或者
其他人開始打鬍子低位時, 你是不是在偷笑?
The #1 guy I smile when they try to back him down is Chuck Hayes because he
was literally like the best post up defender ever. #2 is James Harden. You
watch a lot of basketball. Most fans don't get to see or pay attention to
that. Not an elite post defender but extremely good. Great instincts, great
strength, low center of gravity, all the things that make you a good post
defender, he has. He enjoys it actually. You can argue in a singular action,
his best skill is guarding bigger guys on switches.
第一我會偷笑的人選是Chuck Hayes, 因為他就是最好的低位防守者, 第二個人選就
是鬍子. 你球看得多, 而大部分的球迷都不會去關注這點. 他即使不是精英等級的低位
防守者, 他也是個很優秀的低位防守者. 良好的嗅覺, 優秀的臂展, 穩固的下盤
這些要素能讓你成為優秀的低位防守者. 而他擁有這些要素, 他也確實很樂意去防.
他最棒的技巧就是能在換防中去防那些長人.
My theory has been a large reason you guys do it is because it helps your
offense, not defense. The Wolves or whoever don't want Taj Gibson guarding
James Harden. In that chaos, you get a mismatch or all sorts of opportunities.
我猜測你們會這樣安排的理由是這會幫到你們的進攻而不是防守. 灰狼或者其他球隊
根本不想讓Taj Gibson去防鬍子, 這樣就會在混亂之中會讓你們得到錯位或者其他機會
Most teams aren't that disorganized. You're trying to put as much offense on
the floor while also putting an extremely good defense. Harden's ability to
defend multiple positions allows us to put more skilled offensive positions
on the floor.
大部分的球隊不會那麼沒有紀律性, 所以你必須在攻防兩端都投入. 由於鬍子的換防能力
這可以讓我們擺很多技巧型球員在場上.

這變陣是用於進攻, 以往球轉轉移到弱側RA手中就停止了
然後回傳給鬍子, 現在就是要讓側翼發揮三重威脅
當對手在close out時, 最容易被切過, 要利用好此優勢
而不是球回傳給鬍子從新組織進攻, 浪費優勢
而換防能力只是附加價值吧
MDA曾說過他打的不是小球, 而是技巧籃球
越多人能控球越好, 這大概也是MDA想引進JJ的原因吧
完成他心目中的藍圖
