攻破现在黑湖人和科比的15大谎言(上)
I have a good friend who happens to be a staunch Portland Trail Blazers fan. When the topics of the Los Angeles Lakers or Kobe Bryant come up in conversation, his irrationality shows no bounds.
我有一个朋友,他是波特兰开拓者的死忠。当我们的话题转到洛杉矶湖人和科比·布莱恩特的时候,他就变得非常的不理性。
You see, to most Portland fans like my friend, the Los Angeles Lakers are seen as the same loathed enemies as Lakers fans see the Boston Celtics (except one rivalry represents the finest in professional sports). Thus, it is hard for these folks to see anything positive in regards to the Lakers or Kobe Bryant, as he is the biggest Trail Blazer assassin there has likely ever been.
你看,对大多数像我朋友这样的开拓者球迷来说,看到洛杉矶湖人就像看到讨厌的敌人一样,和湖人球迷看波士顿凯尔特人是一个道理(除非职业运动上只有一个对手,这样才有可能是最好的)。因此,很难让那些人看到湖人或者科比身上积极的一面,因为科比可能是开拓者有史以来最大的刺客之一。
Of course, success breeds plenty of similar folks around the NBA’s fanbase. No team has been as successful as the Lakers in professional sports over the past 30 years, and no NBA player has had as much success as Kobe has over the past decade.
当然,成功会让NBA的球迷群中产生更多类似的人群。过去的30年,湖人无疑是职业运动上最成功的球队,而科比也无疑是过去10年最成功的NBA球员。
Yet, it is funny how polarized many fans are when discussing Kobe Bryant. The amount of effort that some people use to try to bring down his legacy is simply incredible. Perhaps if this effort was used towards producing positive economic profit, this country would have already been out of the recession.
现在,看到很多球迷谈论科比·布莱恩特时所变现出的偏见,会觉得很有趣。一些人为了降低科比的传奇性所做的努力可谓是难以置信。如果这些努力可以用来产生正面的经济利益,那这个国家可能早已经脱离了经济危机了。
And the funny thing is that one doesn’t see this with other past NBA legends, such as Bill Russell, Michael Jordan, Larry Bird and Magic Johnson. They all had more than their share of imperfections and flaws, but no one questions their greatness.
同样有趣的是,那些人却不会对以前的NBA传奇有所偏见,比如像比尔·拉塞尔,迈克·乔丹,拉里·伯德和魔术师·约翰逊。他们都不是完美的,都有各自的缺点,但是却没有人质疑过他们的伟大。
Most of the myths and lies associated with the Lakers and Kobe are built around cherry-picked stats and by using double standards.
绝大多数对于湖人和科比的虚构以及谎言都是经过精挑细选的,用双重标准来衡量的。
Richard Belzer once stated, “If you tell a lie that's big enough, and you tell it often enough, people will believe you are telling the truth.” By retelling these lies over and over, many smart folks I know are even starting to believe them.
理查德·贝尔泽曾经说过,“如果你说的谎言足够大,并且经常去重复那个谎言,那人们就会相信你说的是真的。”因为这样的谎言一次次被重复,我所知道的很多聪明人也开始相信了。
This article is meant to address the top 15 recent lies I have heard in regards to Kobe and the Lakers. I don’t expect to change the minds of Kobe/Lakers haters like my friend, but hopefully this should make a difference among the rational folks, helping to stop the spread of these lies.
【这篇文章是为了解决现在关于科比和湖人的15大谎言。我不期望能够改变像我朋友那样的科比/湖人憎恨者的想法,但是我希望这能在理性的球迷中产生一些作用,来防止这些谎言的进一步流传。】
Pau Gasol Was the Real Finals MVP in 2010保罗·加索尔才是2010年总决赛的MVP
One of the biggest lies told today about Kobe Bryant is that he didn’t deserve the 2010 Finals MVP award. Instead, the people who claim this assert that Pau Gasol was the real Finals MVP.
如今,关于科比最大的一个谎言就是他不值得获得2010年总决赛的最有价值球员。那些说出这番话的人,认为保罗·加索尔才是真正的总决赛MVP。
However, the facts don’t support this notion.
但是,事实并不站在这种见解的一方。
Gasol definitely had some standout games in the Finals, but he had a trend of not having the most dominant performances in his team’s losses and games played in Boston, or at least as dominant as Kobe. Gasol outshined Kobe in Game 2, when he poured in 25 points, eight rebounds, and six blocks while shooting an efficient 7-10.
加索尔在总决赛肯定是有表现出色的几场比赛的,但是球队失利的比赛,还有在波士顿进行的那几场比赛,加索尔的表现并不具有统治力,或者至少没有科比表现的有统治力。加索尔在第二场的表现确实比科比好,他得到了25分,8个篮板,6记盖帽,命中率很高,10投7中。
However, in Game 3, Pau only managed 13 points compared to the 29 points Kobe scored (although Kobe did have a poor shooting night).
但是在第三场,加索尔仅仅得到13分,而科比得到了29分(尽管科比的命中率很差)。
In Game 4, Gasol had 21 points but managed just six rebounds, compared to the 33 points Kobe scored while making 6-11 three-pointers.
在第四场,加索尔得到了21分,但是仅仅只有6个篮板,而科比得到了33分,三分11投6中。
In Game 5, Gasol only scored 12 points on 5-12 shooting and only got to the free throw line for three attempts—a stat that indicates he simply was not being aggressive enough to help LA win. Overall in Boston, Gasol shot just .457 from the field, a poor mark for a seven-footer.
第五场,加索尔12投5中仅得到12分,罚球只有3次——这一数据也表明他没有为了湖人的胜利而打出侵略性。在波士顿的比赛,加索尔的命中率只有45.7%,这样的数值对于7尺长人来说可是很差的。
Comparatively, Kobe had 38 points in Game 5 while shooting 13-27. Had Gasol played dominantly in either of the Lakers’ losses in Boston, his team might have pulled out an extra win.
相对而言,科比第五场27投13中得到了38分。如果加索尔在波士顿输球的比赛中能够有一场打出统治力,那湖人就有可能多取得了一场胜利。
A lot of people look at Kobe’s 6-24 performance in Game 7 as “proof” that he didn’t deserve the MVP award, implying the misconceived notion that the award should be based off of just one game, rather than the whole series.
很多人就把第七场科比24投6中当做科比不应该拿MVP的证据,这不就暗示着这个奖项应该只看一场比赛的表现,而不是整个系列赛的表现。
What they fail to realize, however, is that Kobe’s 23 points led all scorers and his 15 rebounds were second only to Gasol. While Kobe had a poor shooting night, Gasol only shot 6-16 from the field and a dismal 7-13 from the charity stripe. Overall, just about every player on both teams had a poor shooting effort. That was the result of the tough team defenses and high stakes.
他们没有看到的是科比全场最高的23分,还有仅此于加索尔抢下了15个篮板。尽管科比命中率确实不好,但是加索尔也只是16投6中,罚球则是13罚7中。总的来说,那场比赛几乎双方每个球员的命中率都不怎么样,那是因为两队都打出了高强度的团队防守。
While Kobe had a tough time making shots, he refused to lose and found ways to help his team win, such as by being aggressive and earning trips to the foul line—and making the free throw attempts.
尽管科比在投篮上很纠结,但是他拒绝失利,他找到了让球队获胜的方法,就像打的更具侵略性和造犯规上罚球线一样——这样可以得到罚球的机会。
In addition, Kobe guarded Rajon Rondo, arguably the best player on the Celtics, throughout most of the series and he did a decent job of containing him. As the leader of the offense, as Rondo goes, so do the Celtics most nights.
此外,科比系列赛大部分时候防守的是凯尔特人最好的球员隆多,他做的很不错,压制住了隆多。作为球队进攻的领袖,凯尔特人大多数比赛都是跟着隆多走的(隆多被限制,你们就应该知道结果了,想想前些天罗斯暴虐隆多的比赛吧)。
Throw in the fact that Kobe averaged 28.6 ppg in the series compared to Gasol’s 18.6 ppg, and it further becomes clear that of the two players, Kobe had the better all-around series.
总决赛7场比赛,科比场均得到28.6分,加索尔只是18.6分,这样就更清楚了,显然科比的表现更加全面。
Kobe Is Not an Efficient Shooter科比不是一个有效率的投手
The argument that Kobe is not an efficient shooter is often brought up to show that he is overrated. In addition, many of the same people that use this argument state that efficiency is one of the main reasons that puts Michael Jordan into a class much higher than Kobe Bryant.
争论的话题是科比不是一个有效率的投手,所以就说他被高估了。另外,那些人利用这个话题的人还说就是效率才让迈克·乔丹所处的位置比科比·布莱恩特高出许多。
Even Phil Jackson made this distinction recently. And yet everyone who claims this is wrong.
最近就连菲尔·杰克逊也说到了这个区别。可是所以这么说的人都是错的。
Looking at the pure field goal statistics seems to lend credence to this argument. For instance, Kobe Bryant has a .455 career field goal percentage compared to .497 for Jordan.
如果只是看纯命中率的话,会给这个话题证据。例如,科比·布莱恩特生涯的命中率是45.5%,而乔丹的生涯命中率是49.7%。
Part of the reason that Kobe’s shooting percentage is lower is due to the higher quantity and percentage of shots that are taken from beyond the three-point line. However, three-pointers contribute 50 percent more points than regular shots.
造成科比命中率更低的部分原因是他有更多的出手来自三分线外。但是,三分球的得分比普通得分可是多50%的。
When free throws and three-pointers are taken into account to form the true shooting percentage, Michael Jordan has a .569 percentage compared to Kobe Bryant’s .556. In other words, the numbers are very similar.
当把罚球和三分都算进真正的投篮命中率时,迈克·乔丹的命中率是56.9%,而科比·布莱恩特的命中率是55.6%。也就是说,两个数据很接近。
One has to also remember that most of the years that Jordan shot higher field goal percentages came during the 1980s when team defenses (despite the hand-checking) were much less tenacious than the 1990s or 2000s. Hence, teams in general shot much higher percentages and there were many guards who shot greater than 50 percent (compared to just a few today).
同样,你应该要记得乔丹命中率更高的时候都是20实际80年代,那时候的防守比起90年代和2000年之后可没有那么强悍。因此,大多数球队的命中率也更高,那时很多后卫的命中率都在50%以上(如今没几个后卫能做到)。
Heck, there were whole teams that averaged over 50 percent on their field goal attempts.
见鬼,那时候还有球队的命中率在50%以上。
There are a couple reasons why team defenses are more effective today. First, after the Detroit Pistons made use of the “Jordan Rules,” other teams took note that tough team defenses can slow down the best players in the game and lead to wins. Second, zone defenses encourage outside shooting more than dribble penetration, leading to a lower conversion rate.
造成现在防守更有效的原因是多方面的。首先,在底特律活塞队利用了“乔丹法则”之后,别的球队也注意得到了强硬的防守可以让最好的球员在比赛中减速,从而取得胜利。其次,联防也促使了更多的外线投篮,而不是运球突破,这也让命中率有所下降。
If Jordan had played in today’s league, he would be forced to take and make more outside shots, which is something he wasn’t very effective at early in his career. While he would likely have improved his outside shot earlier in his career, his overall field goal percentage probably would have suffered.
如果乔丹在今天的联盟里打球,那他就会被迫进行更多的外线投射,而这在他职业生涯早期做的并不好。如果他在生涯早期就进行了更多的外线投射,那他的命中率可能就会凄惨些了。
Despite the difference in eras and true shooting percentage to compare Jordan and Bryant, let’s consider one final telling stat that indicates how efficiently the two players were able to score.
尽管乔丹和科比所处的时代不同,他们真实的命中率也不同,但现在让我们最后来看看一项数据,它会告诉我们两名球员得分是多么的有效率。
When one looks at points per field goal attempt, one will see nearly identical statistics for both players: Jordan scored 1.316 points per shot attempt while Bryant has scored 1.304.
当你看看每次出手的得分时,你会清楚地看到两名球员的数据时多么地相近:乔丹每次出手可以得到1.316分,而科比每次出手得到1.304分。
So after this analysis, does it still seem that Jordan is in a class way above Bryant when it comes to efficiency?
经过这个分析,当再说到效率时,你会觉得乔丹还是高高地凌驾于科比之上吗?
The Lakers Are Better Off When Kobe Shoots Less科比投篮越少,湖人打得越好
This season, quite a few have commented about how the Lakers seem to do better when Kobe Bryant shoots less in games. They have noted that many of the games LA has lost this year featured lots of shot attempts by Bryant.
本赛季,有些人评论过科比在场上投篮更少时,湖人看上去打的更好。他们还说湖人今年很多失利都是因为科比投篮太多。
However, there is a reason why this correlation could be made. Since Kobe already has a lot of mileage, coach Phil Jackson has tried to limit his playing time this season. In fact, Kobe’s playing time is down about five minutes per game compared to last season.
但是,本赛季造成这个情况是有原因的。因为科比已经是位连续征战的老将了,杰克逊本赛季开始限制他的上场时间了,而科比的上场时间相比上赛季少了5分钟左右的时间。
Jackson’s goal for every Lakers game this season is to have his team dominate through the first three quarters and rest Kobe Bryant in the fourth quarter. With all of the games that Kobe has sat out much of the fourth quarter this season, his average playing time in wins is lower than his playing time in losses.
杰克逊给本赛季湖人制定的目标就是前三节掌控比赛,然后让科比在第四节休息。本赛季所有比赛科比第四节大部分时间有坐在板凳席上,湖人获胜的比赛他上场时间要少于失利的比赛。
When games are close in the fourth quarter, Jackson usually relies heavily on Kobe. Often times, Kobe is asked to take over the scoring load late in games because Pau Gasol and the other players were unable to have good scoring games themselves.
而当第四节比赛比分接近时,杰克逊又得严重依赖科比。因此科比经常被要求把得分的任务扛在肩上,因为这时加索尔和其他队员不能够很顺利地去得分。
Sometimes Kobe is able to help get the wins for the Lakers and sometimes he is unable to do so. But the fact that in losses he is playing more minutes and taking more shots is the reason why his shot attempts are higher in losses.
有时候,科比能帮助球队获胜,有时候做不到。但事实是在失利的比赛中,他上场的时间更多,出手更多,所以这是输球的比赛科比出手更多的原因。
Hence, claiming that the Lakers are “better off” when Kobe shoots less is simply a naïve and misguided statement.
因此,科比投篮越少,湖人打的越好的说法是天真的,这是会误导别人的。
Boston Could Have Won the 2010 Finals If Perkins Didn’t Get Injured
如果帕金斯没有受伤,凯尔特人会获得2010年总决赛冠军
Many Boston fans have whined this season by continuing to bring up the assertion that the Celtics would have won the NBA Finals last season if Kendrick Perkins wasn't injured.
本赛季,很多凯尔特人球迷经常抱怨说。如果上赛季总决赛帕金斯没有受伤,那总冠军就是凯尔特人的。
First, most people would agree that LA played so well in Game 6 that Boston would have lost that game anyway, even if Perkins didn’t go down. In fact, Boston was already trailing by a considerable margin when Perkins was injured, and had been playing with far less energy than the Lakers, who were desperate to get a win.
首先,大多数人都会同意湖人在第六场比赛打的很好,不论帕金斯是否受伤,湖人都会赢。实际上,帕金斯受伤的时候,凯尔特人已经落后很多了,而他们打的也不像湖人充满能量,湖人对胜利充满了渴望。
But let’s look at Game 7. True, Perkins could have helped Boston grab more rebounds, but it is doubtful that he would have overcome the 13-rebound deficit that Boston had behind LA. In fact, Boston had already lost the rebounding battle in a couple earlier games that series with Perkins in the mix.
现在让我们回顾下第七场比赛。是的,帕金斯可能会帮凯尔特人抢到更多的篮板,但是能否帮凯尔特人克服比湖人少抢13个篮板就难说了。实际上,就是帕金斯还没受伤之前,凯尔特人已经在多场比赛里篮板比湖人抢的少。
To say that Perkins would have been the difference-maker seems to just be an excuse, especially since Rasheed Wallace played well in the game filling in for him. Perhaps if Kevin Garnett grabbed more than three rebounds that game, if Paul Pierce hadn’t shot 5-15 or if Ray Allen hadn’t shot 3-14, then Boston may have had a chance.
说帕金斯在场结果就会不一样的人只是在照一个借口而已,尤其是拉希德·华莱士打的还那么好,很好地填补了他的空缺。可是,如果加内特那场比赛可以多抢3个篮板,皮尔斯不是15投5中,雷·阿伦不是14投3中的话,凯尔特人可能会有机会。
To flip the coin the other way, one should note that Andrew Bynum was only playing at about 50 percent during the whole series. Had he been close to 100 percent (like his recent run since the All-Star break), LA likely would have won the series in about five games.
从另一方面看,有人应该说安德鲁·拜纳姆那个系列赛的状态只有五成。如果他的状态是接近最佳的(就像全明星周末之后的表现),湖人可能五场比赛就结束些列赛了。
It would also have been nice to see a healthy Trevor Ariza and Andrew Bynum play in the 2008 Finals, as the outcome of that series might also have been different.
如果2008年总决赛可以看到阿里扎和拜纳姆那就更好了,也许那次总决赛的结果就不一样了。
In the end, none of this really matters. Each team had injury woes, and the harder-working team won Game 7.
其实现在怎么说都没用,两支球队都有伤病,只有打的更努力的球队才能赢得总决赛第七场。
Boston Would Have Won the 2010 Finals If the Calls Went Their Way如果判罚有利于凯尔特人,2010年的冠军就是凯尔特人的
Another way Lakers haters like to downplay the latest championship is to insist that Boston would have won if “the calls went their way.” They specifically like to point to how in Game 7, Boston shot only 17 free throws compared to LA’s 37 attempts.
憎恨湖人的人对湖人去年的冠军不屑的另一个说法是如果判罚是有利于凯尔特人的,那凯尔特人才是获得总冠军的球队。他们特别指出了第七场比赛,凯尔特人只有17次罚球,而湖人却有37次。
Never mind that LA was clearly the aggressor during the second half. Forget how in Game 2 of the 2008 Finals, Boston only won by six points, despite taking 38 free throw attempts compared to 10 for LA. Leon Powe’s 13 attempts alone were greater than all of the Lakers players’ attempts put together!
先不说湖人那场比赛的下半场打的更有侵略性。难道你们忘了2008年总决赛第二场,那场凯尔特人只赢了6分,但是他们有38次罚球,而湖人只有10次,里昂·鲍维一个人的13次罚球就比湖人全队的罚球要多了。
Also, please disregard how Boston came back from 24 points down in Game 4 of the 2008 Finals mostly due to their aggressive play and how they got most of the free throw calls in the second half.
还有,不要忘了2008年总决赛第四场凯尔特人是怎么逆转24分的,就是因为他们打的更有侵略性,在下半场获得了多数的罚球。
It’s true that not all of the calls were made right during the 2010 Finals. Ray Allen got into serious foul trouble in Game 1 with some seemingly “phantom fouls.” Likewise, Kobe Bryant had the same issue in Game 2.
2010年的总决赛确实不是所有的判罚都是正确的。雷·阿伦第一场诡异地陷入了犯规麻烦,同样在第二场科比也受到了一样的困扰。
But if Celtics fans are going to gripe about not getting the calls, they are going to look like hypocrites. All other fans around the league can relate to how Kevin Garnett (and previously Kendrick Perkins) constantly gets away with moving
screens.
但是如果凯尔特人球迷一直抱怨裁判的问题,那他们看上去就有些虚伪了。联盟其他球队的球迷都应该知道凯文·加内特(还有之前的帕金斯)经常逃脱移动挡拆的判罚。
Just watch any Celtics game and look for how Garnett sets screens, and you will see what I mean. Here’s a clip from Game 3 of the 2008 Finals where Garnett gets away with multiple moving screens until he is finally called for an offensive foul. See if you can count the number of moving screens he sets!
你只要看看任何凯尔特人的比赛,看看加内特是怎么挡拆的,你就会知道我说的是什么意思了。这里有段2008年总决赛第三场的录像,加内特在被吹移动挡拆之前已经逃脱了很多次了。你可以数数他的移动挡拆次数。
Except more often than not, he gets away with them.
而他绝大多数时候都会逃脱裁判的判罚。
If Perkins and Garnett got called for these obvious illegal plays, they would likely foul out of most of their games. While it appears that the NBA has a special rule in place for them, it is laughable that Celtics fans have the nerve to say that the officiating usually favors other teams.
如果帕金斯和加内特这些明显的犯规都被裁判逮住,他们可能多场比赛都会犯满离场。既然联盟给他们这样一个特殊的待遇,那如果凯尔特人球迷还厚颜无耻地说判罚利于对手的话,那就太可笑了。
Regarding the Finals, one can complain that their team did not get the calls. In 2008 and 2010, it is evident that the better team won each series.
关于总决赛,球迷可以抱怨他们的球队没有得到更多的判罚。2008年和2010年的总决赛告诉我们,打的更好的球队才能赢得总决赛。
Ps: 未完待续
