Warriors on pace for worst drop in winning percentage in NBA history
勇士正在往史上隔年勝率掉最多的路上邁進
After their first 12 games of the 2019-20 season, the once-mighty Golden
State Warriors currently have the worst record in the league.
勇士2019-20球季剛打了12場，這樣一支曾經無敵球隊現在是聯盟戰績最糟的球隊。
Their roster has been absolutely decimated, mostly due to injuries to their
two franchise cornerstones Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson. But their wild
offseason also included the departures of two former NBA Finals MVP in both
Kevin Durant and Andre Iguodala. Golden State hardly resembles the team that
won the Western Conference five years in a row.
勇士的球員名單已經殘破不堪，主要是因為他們的兩個主要球員Stephen Curry跟Klay
Thompson受傷的關係。另外是休賽季時兩個前FMVP球員Kevin Durant跟Andre Iguodala也
離開勇士，現在的勇士跟之前那支連續拿下五次西冠的球隊完全是兩個樣。
While the offense has struggled without these players, it has been especially
bad on the other end of the court. Their defensive rating (117.2) ranks as
the worst in the league. Overall, their winning percentage (.167) is a far
cry from their mark in 2018-19 (.695).
勇士少了這些球員讓他們在攻擊上頗為掙扎，但是他們在防守端可是更糟。他們的防守評
分(117.2)在聯盟是墊底的，他們目前勝率(.167)跟去年勝率(.695)差了一大截。
勝率下降排名:
1. 2019-20 金州勇士: 52.8%
2. 2010-11 克里夫蘭騎士: 51.2%
3. 1998-99 芝加哥公牛: 49.6%
4. 1996-97 聖安東尼奧馬刺: 47.6%
5. 1982-83 休斯頓火箭: 39.0%
6. 1964-65 舊金山勇士: 38.7%
7. 2018-19 克里夫蘭騎士: 37.8%
8. 2007-08 邁阿密熱火: 35.4%
9. 1947-48 普羅維登斯壓路機: 34.2%
10. 2006-07 曼菲斯灰熊: 33.0%
According to our research, that would be the largest year-over-year negative
difference in NBA history. This pace would be worse than the Cleveland
Cavaliers after they first lost LeBron James in 2010-11 and the Chicago Bulls
after Michael Jordan retired for the second time.
根據目前的數據分析，這將會是NBA史上球隊隔年勝率下降最多的一次。這會比2010-11騎
士第一次沒了LBJ跟芝加哥公牛在第二次MJ退休後還要糟。
The good news is their eerie similarities thus far to the San Antonio Spurs
in 1996-97. Much like the Warriors who added an All-Star (D’Angelo Russell)
in the offseason and have started 2-10, the Spurs signed a former All-Star in
Dominique Wilkins before the season began and started 2-13. San Antonio
received just six games from David Robinson due to an injury while Golden
State lost Curry after only four appearances.
好消息是勇士的慘況跟1996-97的馬刺很像。勇士在休賽季時交易到了全明星D'Angelo
Russell，目前戰績2-10；馬刺則是在開季前簽下了前全明星Dominique Wilkins，開季是
2-13。馬刺那年David Robinson只打了六場，勇士Stephen Curry出場四場後就受傷。
The Spurs finished the season 20-62 and ended up with a lottery pick that was
used to draft Tim Duncan. Once he returned from injury and played alongside
Duncan, they went on to win two titles together following their rough speed
bump in 1997. If Golden State gets a high lottery pick to add alongside Curry
and Thompson, perhaps a similar fate is coming to the Bay Area.
馬刺那年戰績是20-62，選秀選到了Tim Duncan。在David Robinson傷癒復出後，就跟Tim
Duncan拿下兩次NBA總冠。所以若是勇士本季最後拿到高順位選秀，他就可以跟Curry及
Thompson並肩作戰，或許與馬刺類似的狀況就會出現在灣區。
For context: This is not the first time that the Warriors have experienced an
incredibly poor change in their year-over-year performance. They made the NBA
Finals in 1964 behind 36.9 points per game from Wilt Chamberlain, who was
traded the following season. Later the year, the team then finished with the
worst record in the league.
這也不是勇士第一次出現隔年戰績直直落的狀況了。在1964年，在場均36.9分的大帥Wilt
Chamberlain率領下，他們打到了NBA總冠；隔年Chamberlain被交易走後，勇士的戰績就是
隔年最差。
