Chris Paul - NBA

老實說,我從來沒有喜歡過 Chris Paul 這個球員,即使他真的很
有天份、又是個有禮貌的乖小孩,在場上又常有搶眼的表現,但不喜
歡就是不喜歡,看球的時候總得有一些非理性才叫作球迷,不是嗎?
(糗爺調)
我第一次看到 Chris Paul 的時候,他還在唸大學。那時,威克森
林大學在他和另外兩名後衛 Justin Gray、Tarron Downey 領軍之下
高據全美第一,金戈鐵馬,氣吞萬里如虎,踏進伊利諾大學的 Assembly
Hall,面對擁有 Dee Brown、和兩年後同樣也要在新秀挑戰賽裡亮相
的 Deron Williams 和 Luther Head。
結果威克森林敗了,敗得非常徹底。那年的 NCAA 錦標賽,伊利諾
差點創造了歷史,而威克森林在第二輪被人殺下馬,無言的結局。
所幸老天爺對 Chris Paul 並不算太差,Paul在黃蜂隊的第一年非
常搶眼,16.1/5.1/7.8,人生只有一次的最佳新人獎被 Paul 搬了回
家。同時他還遞補入選了 2006 世錦賽的美國代表隊,並且在九場世
錦賽裡傳出了全隊最多的44次助攻。大家都看好 Chris Paul 將是下
一個世代 NBA 最佳控衛的代言人。
真的嗎?
這令我想起 Scottie Pippen 怎樣評論一代球王 Michael Jordan:
「如果你不能在攻擊與防守兩端都作到最好,你就沒有資格與 Jordan
相提並論。」同樣的,一個在攻擊與防守上還有明顯可見缺點可挑剔
的球員,怎麼能被稱為新世代控衛代言人?
新人年三分命中率只有兩成八的 Paul,攻擊手段上的侷限性在國際
賽場上一覽無疑:要守住 Paul 的最好辦法就是離他兩大步,放投不放
切,只要他出手投三分,就可以準備搶籃板發動快攻了。此外,雖然
Paul 平均一場比賽能抄截兩球,但是防守的對抗性(以及意願)也同
樣不能令人無疑。
而就比賽型態來看,Paul仍然是以第一步切入後的突破分球為主,快
攻中具有寬廣的動態視野與快速的決策力,他可以將球傳到機會最好的
隊友手上。但此外,他在半場戰術的執行能力已經被經過大師指導的 Deron
Williams 所超過。
最重要的,還是心態問題:那種「被你過了沒關係,下一球我會吃回
來」的心態亟需立即修正,Chris Paul 才有可能躋身偉大之林,否則不
過是另一個「不太打嘴炮」的 Stephon Marbury 而已。
