Jeremy Lin’s Offseason To-Do List for Maximizing Potential with Houston Rockets
這其實是6月13日板大推薦給我的文章….到現在才翻的我真是很懶惰啊～
很不錯的文章，“bleacher report”難得放了啾咪的好文，記得最近有一篇把啾咪講的好難聽
Aftera few “Linsane” weeks in New York, Jeremy Lin faced lofty expectations when hesigned with the HoustonRockets.
在幾週紐約林來瘋之後，簽到休士頓火箭的林書豪，面臨極高的期待。
The skeptics said he was a one-hit wonder who shouldn’t have gotten a $25 million contract afteronly 25 games. The believers said he needed more experience.
懷疑的人說他只是個一時的奇景，不應該就25場比賽拿到2千5百萬的合約。相信他的人說他需要的只是經驗。
It wasa largely inconsistent year, hit-or-miss each game as his confidence levelfluctuated.
這是個不穩的一年，表現好或不好隨著他的自信而浮動。
There was the game against the Minnesota Timberwolves in lateDecember, where Lin had seven turnovers—tying a season high—and just oneassist. But there was the game the day before (Christmas Day) against the ChicagoBulls, where Lin dazzled with 11 assists and 20 points on 66.7 percentfrom the floor.
In his first year as a full-time starter in the NBA,Lin clearly went through adversity. However, he made great improvements throughthe course of the season while adapting to his role in the offense.
十二月末有一場對明尼蘇達森林狼的比賽，林拿了7個失誤—試刷一個賽季新高—然而只有一個助攻。但那是在對戰芝加哥公牛的前一天，而對上公牛他在場上繳出令人讚歎的11個助攻和20分、命中率66.7。在NBA他第一年作為全時先發，林確實走過了逆境。無論如何，他在季中做到極大的進步、同時適應他在進攻端的角色。
He is asolid on-ball defender and finished the season with respectable offensivestatistics (13.4 points per game on 44.1 percent shooting and 6.1 assists pergame).
他是一個穩妥的對球防守者，並且完成了應被尊敬的進攻端成績（場均13.4分、命中率44.1、6.1個助攻）
Still,for a player whose performances are put in the spotlight every game, there isplenty that Lin has to do to polish his game and maximize his potential in aRockets uniform.
仍然，對一個每場比賽的表現都被放在鎂光燈下的球員來說，仍然有許多林需要去做的、精煉他的比賽且最大化他身穿火箭球衣時的潛力。
BallControl/Decision-Making
球的控制/做決策
As a point guard, you are relied upon to make plays, andtherefore you are looking to get your teammates involved each time up thefloor. The problem was that Lin was 10th in the NBA with 236 turnovers. Histeammate, James Harden, led the league with 295 turnovers.
作為一個控球後衛，你被仰賴去製造機會，而因此每當在場上你要試著讓你的隊友融入。問題是林有236個失誤是NBA排名第10。他的隊友，詹姆斯哈登，以295個失誤名冠群倫。
Lin would dump the ball off to Harden on the majority ofpossessions; when he did facilitate the offense, he was prone to makingill-advised passes. This can be partly attributed to his aggressive style ofplay.
大部份的火箭球權、林都會棄球給哈登；當他實際在促發進攻時，他傾向做出不好的傳球。這大部份歸因於侵掠式的進攻風格。
Of his 236 turnovers, 131 were caused by bad passes and 89 were due toball-handling, per 82games.
在他236個失誤中，131個導因於不好的傳球，89個是由於控球（82場比賽當中）。
This problem ties in with decision-making. He is a craftyplayer who got into the lane to draw the defense, but he struggled with hiskick-out passes.
這個問題就是緊緊關連著做決策。他是個詭計多端的球員、為吸引防守跑進禁區，但他的向外傳球卻陷入困境。
Often times, Lin drove the lane and left his feet withouthaving made a decision as to what he was going to do with the ball. It resultedin a lot of those ill-advised passes or traveling violations.
時常，林任其雙腳衝進禁區、卻還沒對球做出決定。這導致這些不被建議的傳球或走步違例。
To improve, he doesn’t want to be less aggressive, merelymore conscientious of what’s going on around him.
為求進步，他不需要減少侵略，只要更多的意識到他周圍發生了什麼事。
The problem was mostly mental. He was hesitant becausehe didn’t want to make mistakes. Experience will play a hugepart in reducing his turnovers, but he absolutely must work on making moreefficient passes this summer.
這個問題主要是心理上的。他猶豫因為他不想要犯錯。在未來，經驗會是減少失誤的主因，但他今夏絕對必須要訓練做出更好的傳球。
Lin, with a full season under his belt, will become moreconfident with time and will learn the right situations to pass, shoot or drawcontact for a foul.
林書豪，圓滿達成了一個完整賽季，會隨時間變得更有自信，會學習在正確的情況下傳球、投球、吸引防守犯規。
Among point guards who played at least 20 minutes per game in 2012-13,Lin’s turnover ratio of 13.5 ranked fifth-worst, per ESPN’s Hollinger Stats. Of the 82 qualifiedpoint guards, Lin was 69th.
2012~13賽季，在平均上場至少20分鐘的控球後衛當中，林的失誤比是13.5排名第五差，由ESPN’s Hollinger Stats提供。在82位具資格的控衛中，林排名69。
The ability to cut down his turnovers and make better,quicker decisions with the ball in his hands will ultimately determine hissuccess.
能夠減少失誤、並拿著球做更好更快的決定，會最終決定他的成功。
Consistency with Jump Shot
跳投的連貫性
In the offseason, Lin needs to spend countless hours inthe gym. A player who took more spot-up jumpers rather than regularlycontrolling the offense, he was too inconsistent shooting in 2012-13.
在休賽期，林需要花上無數的小時在體育館裡。對一個更多作為定點射手、而不是通常控制進攻的選手而言，他2012~13賽季的跳投表現太不穩定。
He would have stellar performances and then turn around with a dud. OnMarch 20, Lin shot 9-of-13 from the field for 24 points against the Utah Jazz. He followed that outing withfour points on 2-of-7 shooting against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Granted, both ofthese games were wins and that’s all Lin really cares about, but from apersonal viewpoint, it’s all about consistency.
他會先有個如恆星般表演然後帶著一個啞砲轉身（dud也有無聊糟糕之意）。在3月20日，在對抗猶他爵士林場上投13中9、得24分。，他延續那次的客場之旅以4分、投7中2對抗克里夫騎士。誠然，兩場比賽都贏了、而這是林唯一真的在乎的，但從個人的觀點來看，這都是關乎連貫性。
To sustain success and be on the court in crunch time,you have to be consistent. Confidence plays a huge factor, and in a lot ofthose “dud” games, Lin played extremely tentatively.
為延續成功、在關鍵時候上場，你必須變得連貫。自信扮演重大的因素，在許多這些「啞砲（無聊糟糕）」比賽，林打得都非常躊躇。
As a point guard, you don’t have to take 15 shots a game,as long as you’re effective. There were games in which Lin was 5-of-5 from thefloor (12 points), even 4-of-8 (15 points)—yet those were effective gamesthat resulted in wins.
作為一個控衛，你不需要每場比賽投15球、你只要有效率。林有比賽是打出投5中5（12分），甚至是投8中4（15分）—這些都是有效率的、會導致勝利的比賽。
He had five 2-of-9 games in the regular season and a2-of-13 game. In those games, the Rockets were 1-5 and Lin was heavily scrutinized.
他有5場常規賽投9中2，1場投13中2。在這幾場比賽中，火箭是1勝5負，而林被大大地審視。
Dedication and commitment will allow Lin to improve hisshooting and his offense as a whole.
奉獻和信念會使林的投射進步，包括他整個進攻能力。
The main thing Lin has to do is build confidence. If he’sconfident, his shooting will be more consistent. And he won’t be soturnover-prone.
林最主要要做的就是建立自信。如果他是自信的，他的投射就會更穩定。而他也不會這麼易於失誤。
Keep Developing Left Hand
持續鍛鍊左手
In New York, a major weakness was Lin’s ability to go tothe left. He could barely dribble with his left hand, let alone drive to theleft.
在紐約時期，林的主要弱點就是他向左突破的能力。他只能勉強地用左手運球，更別說殺進禁區左邊。
In Houston, that has become a focus area for Lin. He hasworked diligently on using his left hand, but he still has trouble finishing,even when laying it in from the left side.
在休士頓，這已經成為林努力的焦點區塊了。他已經勤勞地使用他的左手，但仍然在完成動作上有問題，甚至只是（左手）從左邊擱置進來。（老實說我不會翻）
In the video below, you can see him warming up with hisleft-handed dribble and driving to the left side of the lane. What you don’tsee is Lin finishing at the rim with that hand.
在下面的視頻當中，你可以看到他用左手運球暖身、並切入禁區的左邊。你不會看到的是，林用那隻手完成靠近球筐的動作。（影片打不開，所以我就沒有放了）
To be acomplete player, he has to keep developing that area. It’s no longer a weaknessand he can drive-and-kick while going left, but it would make him that muchmore dangerous if he could take it up with his opposite hand.
為了成為一名全面的球員，他必須持續發展那一塊。這已經不是他的弱點了，他可以向左突破分球（一種戰術），但如果他持續進步他的非慣用手，會讓他變成更有威脅性的球員。
Even his outside shooting heavily favored the rightside. Now a lot of times that’s just where Lin was positioned on the floor, buthe took a total of 131 shots from the left side of the court compared to 238 onthe right side, as evidenced on NBA.com’s shot chart and the Vorped shot chart above. Spending the offseason favoring his left hand—which hepracticed in the playoffs when he was injured—can only help Lin inthe long run.
甚至是他的外圍投球都大量選擇右邊。現在有很多次林在場上站定位了，但他左投只有131個，相較右投的238個，這在NBA.com’s shot chart和Vorped shot chart網頁上都有證明。休賽期間花時間強化左手—他季後賽受傷時也是練這個項目—會長期的幫助到林。
If he wants to maximize his potential, the constant development of his left hand is key.
如果他想要最大化他的潛力，持續開發左手是關鍵。
Thebest is yet to come for Lin and the Rockets, and an offseason dedicated toefficiency and working on consistency will allow Houston to take the nextstep.
最好的尚未來到林和火箭身邊，一個致力於提高效率和連貫性的休賽期，會使休士頓能夠走往下一步。
有翻錯請告訴我
when laying it in from the left side
老實說我也不會翻 可是我知道他要表達的意思
紐約時代LIN幾乎只用右切+右手上籃
現在到了火箭 LIN努力的試著從左邊上籃，但「時常擱置他的左手」→意思就是左切用右手上籃…
水瀨雪兔~
謝謝你的說明~這是林書豪必修的課題。
我認為，是冰箱造成 林 沒有自信心，林在初期不適應無球+隊友的溜手、冰箱從不給機會刷分，導致林的均分只有一般的程度。
經過休賽期 林會努力提高自已，asik溜手應該也會大大改善了吧，至少 每場林的助功能增加1-2次吧。
灣灣~~
希望如此。
