SAS今日於First Take節目中,提出他對於人們談論MJ和Curry改變現今比賽的看法
"People said he (Curry) changed the game," Smith said. "No, no, he elevated it t
o a point where it was acceptable because you're looking for somebody to produce
close in the vicinity to what he does and what Klay Thompson does to a slightly
lesser degree.
SAS:
人們說咖哩改變了比賽。不,他是將比賽提升到可以接受的點,因為你只需要找到程度稍微
差一點,但能夠像他和KT一樣打球的人就好。
補充一段這篇網址少節錄關於MDA的部分
But the reality is, you know who the biggest culprit for all of this is? It’s M
ike D’Antoni…. Mike D’Antoni wanted you to shoot threes or layups. He ain’t
want no mid-range game. He would consider benching you if you took a mid-range s
hot.”
但事實是,這一切的罪魁禍首是誰你知道嗎?是MDA,他只要你投三分跟上籃就好,他不想
要中距離,如果你投中距離他可能會讓你去板凳
"My brother, the guy that I love so much, that I believe is the greatest player
to have ever played. Michael Jordan is responsible as much as anybody for changi
ng the game for the worse. This is throwing no shade on Michael Jordan of course
, he's the greatest ever ... but he was so phenomenal that the NBA marketed the
individual, the audience gravitated towards the individual and the game became a
bit more individualized. Because people wanted to 'Be Like Mike.' Before Mike,
you have [Larry] Bird and Magic [Johnson]."
我的兄弟MJ,我最愛也相信是最偉大的那位球員,MJ對於使比賽變糟跟任何人一樣有責任,
這當然不是在貶低他,他是最偉大的,但他太過不可思議以致於NBA開始推銷球星本人,而
群眾也被球星吸引,比賽也變得更個人化,因為人們都想變MJ。在MJ之前,我們可是有大鳥
跟魔術的。
What I'm saying is you were thinking team until Jordan elevated it to another le
vel," Smith added. "Then from Jordan, you had the Kobe [Bryant]'s, the Vince Car
ter's and others that came along thereafter and the individualization of the spo
rt, particularly because of the money that came with it became more of a focal p
oint. So I would tell you, Mike D'Antoni, in terms of the 3-point shooting and m
aintaining the pace and letting people score so you don't disrupt the pace and t
hen Jordan with the individuality, even though he obviously was a team player an
d the Chicago Bulls were a great team. The marketing of the individual, those tw
o components is what made the game what it is today."
我想說的是,在MJ將比賽提升至另一個層級前,大家打的是團隊籃球。從MJ之後,有Kobe、
VC等人相繼出現,個人化伴隨而來,尤其因為這是個可以賺大錢的焦點。所以我告訴你,MD
A以三分球和快節奏得分,以及MJ的個人特色,即使MJ是個團隊球員而公牛也是個很棒的球
隊,球星的市場推銷,這兩項要素就是造成現在比賽樣貌的主因。
