Monday, October 17, 2005 ２００５／１０／１７　星期一 Transition game: Pistons won't rush teen Johnson 過渡時期：活塞不想對Amie Johnson做出失禮的舉動。 （意思應該是關於放下他的事吧） Team keeps 18-year-old away from minor-league affiliate so it can gauge him on and off the court. 活塞不接收十八歲的青年聯盟，因為這樣才可以讓他自由進出球場 （court應該不是翻成法庭吧......我想) By Chris McCosky / The Detroit News 本篇新聞是由Chris McCosky 報導 AUBURN HILLS -- When the NBA established its minor-league affiliation with the National Basketball Developmental League this summer, it did so with players such as Pistons forward Amir Johnson in mind. 　　當ＮＢＡ和國際籃球發展聯盟在暑假建立青年聯盟，他培訓了一些 　　包括Johnson等將來會進活塞的隊員 Here is an 18-year-old, fresh out of high school with raw talent and unlimited potential who most likely won't get much playing time on a successful, veteran-laden team such as the Pistons. 　　這裡是一些十八歲、大學新鮮人，技巧還沒那麼純熟的，還未被限制的一些球員。 　　他們現在還不到把球打到很好的時候，打的好就是跟活塞的隊員一樣。 With the minor-league system in place, you would figure the Pistons could send Johnson to their NBDL affiliate in Fayetteville, N.C., and let him get some real on-the-court training. 　　當這個聯盟進行中時，你會看到活塞打算將Johnson送到ＮＢＤＬ去， 　　讓他接受一些真正在ＮＢＡ裡所會接觸到的。 But it doesn't look like it's going to work that way. 　　可是事情好像不是按照這計劃走的 "It's not just that he's a rookie, but he's a high school kid and there's a lot more involved in his first year," said George David, the Pistons' director of scouting, who was one of the first NBA scouts to discover Johnson, a Los Angeles-area high school star. "It's not just about his development on the basketball court. He's 18. We have to make sure we are on top of him on the court and off the court. 　　”他不只是個新手，還是個高中年紀的孩子，這將會影響到他的高中一年生活。 　　活塞的球探主管G.David說。G.Davis是第一個看中Johnson這個高中球員的球探。 "For us to send him away for an extended period of time, we're just not confident that's the right thing to do for him right now." 　　對我們而言，為了讓他更上一層樓而將他送出，這一件事情我們不知道對於 　　Johnson到底是好是壞。 David said it would be different if Johnson had played three or four years in college and had lived on his own. But presently, the Pistons don't know what the setup will be in Fayetteville, in terms of playing and living conditions. 　　如果Johnson在大學打三到四年，而且過他自己的生活，一切都會變的不一樣。 　　不久，活塞不知道該把Johnson定位在哪裡。 The Pistons, at this point, appear inclined to keep Johnson with the parent club, even if it means he stays on the inactive list most of the season. 　　活塞這時候的態度是比較傾向於保留Johnson，然後將他放到附屬聯盟中。 　　即使這意味著Johnson將可能面臨球季不被受用。 "There is something to be said for accountability, for actually seeing guys every day," said John Hammond, the Pistons' vice president of basketball. "I mean, his face time would be in our facility working with our team every day. It doesn't really get any better than that." 　　”這裡必須要說明一下，事實上看到這些孩子......，我的意思是說： 　　　Johnson在我們這邊在呆下去也不會更好。”活塞的某主管說。 Johnson has impressed with his athleticism, but, as expected, he remains well below the curve in terms of understanding the game, especially the nuances of coach Flip Saunders' offensive and defensive systems. 　　Johnson讓人對他的體能感到印象深刻。但是如預期一樣的，他還是有一些 　　方面不夠成熟。特別是進攻和防守這些方面。 Complicating matters further, Johnson, at 6-foot-9, was primarily a post player in high school. The Pistons have been working him mostly at small forward. 　　麻煩的事情太多了！Johnson六呎九吋，在高中時是個ｐｓ，而活塞只在 　　少數時候需要他。 "I am learning a lot," Johnson said. "I am out running pick-and-rolls and I never did that before." 　　”我正在學習，我正在成長，而我以前從未這樣做過。”Johnson說。 以下......有空再翻！　翻的不好 　有誤之處請指正 多謝！ 以上翻到第十二段。以下好像沒有什麼很重要的...... Johnson very nearly fell through one of the few holes in the NBA scouting web, which is partly why the Pistons were in position to draft him with the 56th overall pick. Even though he was Mr. Basketball in California and led Westchester High School to the state title last season, he stayed under the NBA radar (he was set to sign with Louisville) because he went to three high schools and sat out his junior season. 　　 "His breakout game was at Sonny Vaccaro's Roundball Classic in Chicago, and that wasn't until March," David said. "That's really late for a kid with that much talent to come onto the scene." David had seen him earlier, during the California state tournament. He was so impressed that he advised director of player personnel Scott Perry and president Joe Dumars to forgo plans to scout the P ac-10 college tournament to come see Johnson. "Two things stood out," David said. "He was the best athlete I ever saw, for one. And, he had a really good knack, for a high school kid, timing-wise, for blocking shots. He averaged nine blocks a game. That means there were some games when he'd block 15 shots and others when he'd block like five -- pretty impressive either way." Johnson has displayed that athleticism in camp, too. He might be the team's quickest jumper and best dunker (though Ron Dupree might disagree). And Johnson has enough foot speed that he could eventually play small forward. "Right now, until we have a better handle on what is going on with the development league, we feel like he will be better served here, " coach Flip Saunders said. "Right now, we're just trying to get him to understand what we're trying to do, get him to learn the professionalism of this game." But Saunders won't completely rule out at least one or two runs in Fayetteville. "If we were to go on an extended west coast trip and he's not going to be playing, maybe we would send him down for two weeks, " Saunders said. "That way he could play instead of not doing anything." The Pistons go west twice in the first two months of the season, which would be too early for Johnson to be sent down. There is a stretch between Feb. 27 and March 18 where the Pistons will play eight of 10 games on the road, ending in Charlotte. If Johnson is sent down, that would probably be the time. "If he makes the same amount of improvement over the course of the season as we've seen him make from March until now, everybody will be more than happy," David said. --
