※ 引述《hjshief (老爹)》之銘言： : http://tinyurl.com/5qfe5 : Shaquille gives Howard advice : By Brian Schmitz | Sentinel Staff Writer : Posted December 20, 2004 : Magic rookie Dwight Howard, 19, said he was "upset" he wasn't involved : more in the offense after Sunday's game against the Miami Heat. He also : expressed his frustration on the court to a player the 6-foot-11, 262- : pound Howard literally looks up to. He was given some sage advice. : Hang in there "young fella," Heat center Shaquille O'Neal told Howard. : "I told Shaq that I was kind of upset that I didn't get the ball," Howard : said. "He told me to keep working, that my time would come." : Howard had just three shot attempts and scored seven points -- all seven : coming at the free-throw line. If there has been a bright spot for Howard : in his evolving offensive game, it is his free-throw shooting. He was 7- : for-8. A 62 percent free-throw shooter, he has made 24 of his last 29. : "Ten minutes of shooting before practice," Howard said. "That's helped. : I just try to lock in now." 這段主要在說Shaq叫Howard不要氣餒，堅持下去就會成功，裡面也提到了Howard 的進攻技巧真的很需要再磨練，不過比較值得欣慰的是他的罰球進步很多，目前 的命中率是64%(文中62%可能是未含這場7/8)，不過在最近29次只失手5次，事實 上Howard從季初前9場只有2場得分兩位數，進步到後15場有10場得分2位數，尤其 是籃下第2波攻擊跟拖車頻頻造成對方犯規，不過也可以看出他身體對抗性的不足 ，大都未能投進，而只是造成犯規，應該來個進算加罰的(這不算貪心吧XD)。 : Trip hangover : Grant Hill and Cuttino Mobley said they were still recovering from the : aftershocks of the club's longest road trip of the season -- a six-game, : 10-day junket that ended Wednesday in San Antonio. : "It takes a few days to recover," Mobley said. "I'm going to bed like at : 6 a.m." : Hill said he still was up "at 1:30 in the morning, watching TV, unable to : fall asleep." Hill said he was talking with a trainer from his old team, : the Detroit Pistons, who just laughed. : Sidelined for all but 47 games the past four seasons, Hill's body has not : been subjected to the rigors of the road. 這段在說Hill跟Mobley(甚至是全隊)在10天6場外地的征戰後體力消耗的相當嚴重 ，可以從近幾場魔術總是在第4節崩盤看出來。 : By the book : You see a lot of weird things in the NBA, but seldom to you see an official : call a player for stepping onto the court before throwing a benign inbounds : pass. It's sort of like in baseball when the shortstop is in the "neighbor- : hood" of second base during a double play. : But referee Tony Brothers made the call on Magic center Tony Battie early : in the third quarter against the Heat when he tossed the ball in. Battie : was incredulous. Mobley had an even stronger reaction, disgustedly flipping : the ball high into the air down the other end of the court. Mobley was : whistled for a technical foul. "That's nit-picking," Coach Johnny Davis : said. 這邊在說對熱火的第3節初Mobley被吹的那個技術犯規，Battie覺得不可思議，而教 練Davis也認為裁定太吹毛求疵、在找碴。還舉了個棒球的例子，不過恕小弟英文實 在太破，還是請個高手來解說一下。 : Point guard needed : The Magic are looking for a third point guard, preferably a pass-first : veteran. Hill said he enjoys his cameo appearances at the position when : Steve Francis moves to shooting guard or is out of the game. "I like it, : " Hill said. "I feel I can have an impact." Davis applauds Hill's work at : point guard, but says that Hill's calling is at small forward. 這段在說魔術想再找個老手來當第三控衛，Nelson可能還太嫩，有時攻擊慾望過強 ，Hill雖然很樂於在SF3休息或打2號位置時來擔任控球，不過Davis還是希望他專 心打小前鋒的位置。 --
