Holiday out to grow as leader in contract year Jrue 必须在新秀约的最後一年证明他可以一肩扛起指挥官的责任 John Finger / CSNPhilly.com October 1, 2012, 7:55 pm http://tinyurl.com/8ch5obo ￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣ Aside from a week spent with the USA Select team in Las Vegas where he scrimmaged against the U.S. Olympic team, it was a relatively quiet summer for Jrue Holiday. 当Jrue必须花上一整个礼拜参加靶子队陪奥运美国男篮练习，这个夏天 相较之下对Jrue而言应该是比较平淡的一个夏天。 He worked out, hung with family and friends at home in Southern California and spent some time in London watching his girlfriend Lauren Cheney win the gold medal with the U.S. women ’s soccer team. 他努力训练，在南加州跟亲友相聚，另外还去看他的女朋友，美国奥运 女足代表队国手Lauren Cheney得到他的第二面奥运金牌。 With a busy offseason like that, it was kind of tough for Holiday to make much news. But give him credit … he did. 如果一个人的夏天这麽忙，还可以变成新闻焦点，那显然他是个万中选 一的引战奇才。不过..必须称赞他，他作到了。 During the first week of July a story surfaced that Holiday would be seeking a “max contract extension” from the Sixers when his current deal expires at the end of this season. Of course, this story surfaced before Andrew Bynum was traded to the Sixers and it just so happens that like Holiday, the big man will be looking for a max deal at the end of the season, too. 在七月第一个礼拜，有报导指出Jrue在迈入新秀保证约最後一年的暑假， 正在寻求七六人高层给他一张顶薪续约。当然，这个消息远早於Drew被 交易到费城之前，而这个大个子肯定也在寻求一张封顶合约。 In the NBA, teams are allowed to designate one player to receive a five-year maximum deal. Given a choice between giving the max to Bynum or Holiday, the Sixers’ point guard likely will have to take a lesser deal from the Sixers. 在新的CBA中，球队被允许跟一个球员，在合约尚未结束前达成一份五 年期的续约协议。因此如果他要追求的是续约，他只能追求一张四年期 的续约。 That is if he re-signs in Philadelphia. 当然，这建立於他想要留队的前提之上。 Of course, it was a bit premature to talk about contracts and max deals on the eve of the first day of training camp. Besides, Holiday took the politically correct path when it came to talk about his contract status. 当然，在训练营开训的第一天，谈论有官续约或者重签的话题，其实有 一些言之过早。不过，当媒体问到有关合约状况与未来发展时，Jrue则 有了一番政治正确的表示。 “I’m not really [thinking about a new contract],” Holiday said during Monday afternoon’s media day at the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine. “I’d much rather win. It just progresses from last year. I felt like we should have advanced past the second round. If I take care of business then [a new contract] will follow.” Jrue: 我并没有很认真的把合约问题放在我的第一顺位，比起合约谈判，我更 在乎的是赢球。我希望能延续去年的成就，而且就我的想法中，我们能 够杀出第二轮。总之只要我认真对待每一场球，并且取得成绩，新的合 约是很自然而然的事情。 During training camp before last year’s condensed season, Holiday talked about his goal of becoming an All-Star or an Olympian. Those are pretty high aspirations, but not at all unrealistic. Though he is going into his fourth NBA season, Holiday is still just 22 years old and still honing his game. After making huge strides during the postseason in 2010-11, Holiday suffered from the breakneck pace of last year’s schedule. 上个球季的训练营之前，Jrue曾经提过他的目标是成为一个全明星，以 及被选入奥运代表队。这绝对是很远大的志向，不过事实上并没有实现。 不过尽管他即将迈入生涯的第四年，他也不过才22岁罢了，还有很多的 进步空间。在2010-11季後赛的亮眼表现後，他面对去年缩水球季密集 的比赛，显得有点疲乏。 According to head coach Doug Collins, the lack of practice time during the condensed season was especially difficult for his young team, with no one suffering for it more than Holiday. 根据Doug所表示，缩水球季缺乏训练营的调整与被迫删减的练习时间， 对於他所带领的年轻球队显得更加艰难；而且没有人比Jrue还要更挣扎。 “It hurt Jrue,” Collins said of the lack of practice time. “ When we were able to practice he wasn’t able to do a lot of the extra things after practice because we were in a sprint – we were in a 66-game sprint. Now, we get back to practice and get guys back with their coaches. We have been able to develop players and get them to play their max.” Doug: 这对Jrue造成了伤害，在练习完之後，因为紧密且疲劳的赛程，我们没 办法多出时间给他加强训练。现在，我们能够按照正常的步调来训练， 且让队员们能够一直在教练的监督下完成他们的菜单。我们将有机会协 助球员们取得更大的进步，并且协助他们取得最佳表现。 Needless to say, Holiday’s max for the 2012-13 season will be much different than in the past. For instance, Holiday likely will handle the ball more this season, playing as more of a traditional point guard. Last season, Holiday played more of a hybrid point, sometimes taking on the guise of a two-guard. 其实无须多言，这个球季对Jrue来说，重要性与挥洒空间更胜以往。举 例来说，Jrue绝对有更多的持球组织时间，并且将会有更长的时间专注 在打传统一号。上个球季他打很多双能卫的时间，甚至很多时候他必须 打上二号。 That worked often, with Holiday averaging 13.5 points per game and shooting 38 percent from three-point range. However, there were plenty of rough stretches when Holiday had trouble with his shooting stroke. For instance, last season there was a two-game stretch against Orlando and Dallas in which Holiday went 1 for 17 from the field with five turnovers. 这样的安排经常奏效，Jrue去年平均一场能贡献13.5分，并且有着38.5% 的三分命中率。但是，当他找不到准星的时候，场上的连续性相较之下 也会变得更挣扎。举例来说，上个球季连续对上魔术与小牛的比赛，当 时Jrue在这两场比赛缴出糟糕的1/17，并且外加五次失误。 Don’t count on that happening this year, mostly because with the revamped roster, Holiday won’t have to shoot the ball as much. 但是不要把这个当作是定时引爆的炸药，尤其是当整个球员名单有大幅 度的换血时，Jrue Holiday不需要一直把自己的进攻打入二档。 “Jrue knows his role is going to be different this year,” Collins said. Doug: Jrue知道自己今年的角色会变得很不一样。 Yes, he does. In fact, Holiday says he wants to lead the team in assists this season, while being a leader as one of the elder statesmen on the team. An elder statesman at age 22 … 毫无疑问。事实上，Jrue已经表示他希望能够在这个全新的七六人当中 助攻领衔全队，另外还希望自己能够在球队当中，以资深球员的身份， 贡献他的领导能力。 是阿，一个22岁的「资深」球员.... “One thing is to be more of leader and more of a voice on the court and off the court,” Holiday said about his goals for the upcoming season. “There are a couple of stats like assists. Last year, I think [Andre Iguodala] led the team. This year, with me handling the ball more, I can bump up my assists. “For the team, it’s just getting the team in places where we can do what we need to do.” Jrue: 要成为一个更强而有力的领导者，其中一个要领就是在场上跟场下都必 须让自己多加发言，就跟在场上组织一样。上个球季，我想我们依靠着 AI9领导这个球队；这个球季，球将更多的掌握在我手中，我将能提昇 我的助攻并且带领球队往前走。 对这个球队来说，这不过就是让所有人各就各位，让他们在正确的位置 发挥他们的所长，并完成他们的任务罢了。 In other words, if Holiday can help the Sixers win games then the new contract will be close at hand. 换句话说：只要Jrue能够帮助七六人赢得更多的比赛，那他的新合约将 不再只是个未来式，而是会紧紧的握在他的手中。 ￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣ Let's go Jrue!! -- Definitely one of the all-time under-rated sixers. Glad to see him finally getting some league wide recognition the last few years (All-star, All-NBA defense, Team USA). As much as he's been bashed on these boards over the years I'm sure he'll be missed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wV0ubjT6eDk 76ers' ACE of Spades in the past Decade, Andre Iguodala #9 forever. --
