The Chosen

史上第一人！KG所有技術統計數據，都進入NBA歷史前五十！！

雖然近來C's和KG都在掙扎，18th banner 也遠比數據來得重要，
但許多綠血外國鄉民都注意到KG即將達成史無前例的驚人里程碑，

今年風風雨雨的球季中，仍然是目前少數值得開心的事。

以下正文：

Kevin Garnett is on the precipice on joining a very exclusive club. A club so
exclusive in fact, that when he joins it, he will be it's only member.

KG即將晉身一個非常特殊的行列；特殊到一旦他成功達成，將成為NBA史上第一人。

With 32 more assists, Garnett will pass Sleepy Floyd for 50th on the NBA's
all-time assist leader board (5,144). This is important, because Garnett already
ranks in the top 50 in rebounds (12th - 13,566), points (17th - 24,802),
steals (18th - 1,702) and blocks (19th - 1,937). As you can see, not only is he
top 50 in those categories, he's in the top 20 in all 4.

(註：數據截至13/01/14)

再32個助攻，KG就要超越傳奇球星"睡神"弗洛伊德，NBA助攻榜攻下史上第五十位
(5,144 asts.) 這個榮譽意義重大，因為KG在籃板排名12(13,566 rbs.) 得分排名17
(24,802 pts.)、抄截18(1,702 stls.)、火鍋19(1,937 blks.) 全都排進NBA史上前
五十名；而助攻外的四項數據堪堪達到前二十名。


 

Since the NBA started tracking steals and blocks in 1972-73, no player has
accumulated enough of each of the five categories to rank in the top 50. And
even going back into the pre-steal/block era, the only player who may have
had a chance is Oscar Robertson who easily cracked the top 50 in points,
rebounds and assists, and in his prime was known as an above average
defensive player.

由於NBA在1972-73球季才開始統計抄截和火鍋數據，五項基本數據排名前五十的球員史
無前例。就算回到72'年前，唯一可能達成這項成就的只有上古神獸大O；他的得分、籃板、
助攻紀錄早已高懸許久，而且全盛時期的大O也是個不錯的防守者。

While KG is viewed as a sure fire first ballot Hall of Famer, I think he may
be more than that. It's entirely possible that he is the most well rounded
player in NBA history. Again I'm not saying the most dominant, or the
winningest, or the greatest. As fantastic as he is, I don't think anyone
considers him more dominant than Wilt, a better winner than Russell, or
greater than Jordan. But in terms of his all around game? He just may be
the best we've ever seen. Some facts:

當然KG早就公認是準名人堂的巨星了，但我認為他可不只是名人堂級而已。他極有可能會
成為籃板的史上第一人！當然我並非是說KG最有統治力、最會贏球或最偉大；就算強大如
KG，宰制力也無法比擬張真人、比羅素爺贏下更多冠軍、或比MJ更偉大。但說到球風全面，
KG很有可能是史上最優異的全能球員。以下足以佐證：

Scoring - While he's never led the NBA in scoring, he's topped the 20 PPG
mark in 9 of his 18 NBA seasons. His overall scoring average per game is
19.2 PPG. He's also incredibly efficient, shooting 50% from the floor and 79%
from the free throw line. His offensive repertoire is diverse - fadeaway
jumper's from the post, up-and-under shimmy shake's on the block, and his
18 footer, which he has consistently knocked down throughout his career.

得分：雖然從來沒有當過得分王，目前18季職業生涯中，KG有9季是前二十名的得分好手。
生涯目前場均19.2分的KG打球極有效率，命中率五成外另附贈七成九罰球命中率，攻擊手
段多到目不暇給，職業生涯送出了無數無解後仰、低位作戰、假動作送麻辣鍋、和穩定的中
距離。

Rebounding - Led the NBA in rebounding 4 consecutive seasons (2004-2007),
and has averaged double digit boards for his career (10.5 a game). He has
never been a prolific offensive rebounder, instead preferring to get back on
defense (many coaches would much prefer this to crashing the offensive glass
and getting beat back down the floor). But he's one of the greatest defensive
rebounders of all time. In fact there is a very good chance that by the time he
retires he will have passed Karl Malone for the most defensive rebounds in
NBA history (he's 889 behind him now).

籃板：曾連續三季蟬聯籃板王寶座(04-07) (註：原文似乎算錯了XD)，生涯也有10.5板的佳
績。KG從未抓下太多進攻籃板，這跟他在防守端投入更多熱血的球風有關。(比起抓進攻籃板
失位被打快攻，很多教練會更喜歡穩當的防守籃板) 再889個籃板，KG就可以超越老馬成為
DRb史上第一人了。

Passing - Simply put one of the most un-selfish big men of all time. A career
average of 4 assists per game from a 7 footer is basically unheard of, and for
a span of six consecutive years with Minnesota Garnett averaged over 5 APG.

傳球：KG很可能是史上最無私的長人了。他是唯一場均4助攻的七呎球員，且狼王時代的KG
連續六年都場均5+妙傳。


 

Defense - His true strength. The steals and blocks have been discussed, but
that's not even what this is about. He took home the 2007-08 Defensive player
of the year award, and it can be argued that he deserved to win several more.
He's made 9 All-defensive first teams and 3 All-defensive second teams in his
18 year run, and again - he should have made more. Basketball reference also
keeps a stat called "Defensive Win Shares" that measures how many wins a
player has been worth on the defensive end over his career. KG has been
worth as astounding 85.3, the 7th most in history. Every night he guards the
best big man the opponent has to offer, and in the vast majority of cases he
wins that battle. There is a case to be made that on the all-time All-Defensive
team, he is the starting PF (can't go wrong with Duncan either).

防守：KG真正的絕技。他的抄截和火鍋都非同小可，不過這還不足以代表他的防守實力。KG是
08年最佳防守球員，本來還有機會多拿幾座的。18年來他選入九次防守第一隊和三次第二隊，
若非傷病應享更高榮譽。Basketball Reference.com 有項數據稱為「防守 win shares」，
KG以85.3高居史上第七。每場球賽他都扛下敵隊最佳長人，而且常常壓倒對手。如果排出NBA
史上最強防守五人，KG和TD都足以先發。

Durability - Since his career began in 1995, Garnett has missed more than 13
games exactly once (2008-09, knee injury). He's appeared in 1,291 games, 14th
in league history and by the time he finishes up his current contract he will be
one of just a handful of NBA players to play 20 seasons, and if he stays healthy -
he'll finish in the top 5 in games played.

耐戰力：從95'年開始，只有09'膝蓋受傷那年KG缺戰超過13場。KG以1,291場出場數榮居史上
第14，而合約走完前若能保持健康，下季KG也將成為NBA僅有五位能打20季的老妖G...

A few other stats for Garnett: 14 time all-star, 9 time All-NBA, 2003-04 MVP,
2008 NBA champ.

其他KG的重要榮譽：14(+1)度全明星，九次年度前三隊，04'MVP，08'總冠軍成員！

Perhaps the best word to describe KG is unique. The way the talks on the court,
the way he interacts with the fans and media, the way he has been the heart
and soul of his team's since the Mid-90's. His passion for the game has never
waned, and despite the fact that he's logged nearly 52,000 minutes on his
odometer - his game remains nearly as good as it was in his prime. So
just a message to all basketball fans: Enjoy the next two and a half seasons,
because once Garnett leaves, it's possible we'll never see another player
quite like him.

形容KG最貼切的詞彙，大概是獨一無二吧。他場上碎碎念的功力、和媒體球迷的關係、從90'中
之後不斷為球隊燃燒的小宇宙、52,000分鐘球賽裡不滅的熱情、穩當高檔的球場貢獻...讓我們
享受KG時代的餘暉吧，再過幾年，他的輝煌也只能在記憶中追尋。

Points : 25014  (16) 

Rebounds : 13678 (12)

Assists : 5175 (50)

Blocks : 1955 (19)

Steals : 1721 (17)

雖是暫時性的五項前五十（助攻大概一個月內就會被擠出前50）
但也依然是前無古人 目前也沒任何跡象有哪位後輩能挑戰這記錄
如果穩穩打完最後合約的兩季 累積到5400次 就可站穩前五十一段時間了

終於達成這生涯里程碑 也算是歷史的一刻
分享給看了NBA很久的老球迷們

這就是當年在北大荒五所不能 永遠的狼王（不過血是綠的啦）
