Klay Thompson has revolutionized the shooting guard position by transforming
it from a ball dominant offensive force into the perfect off-ball threat.

K湯把SG這位置在進攻端從球霸進化成了完美的無球威脅

Klay Thompson exists in a strange place in the NBA. Though he’s an All-Star
and All NBA talent on the best team in the league, he is commonly regarded as
the least essential part of the Golden State Warriors core lineup. His
supporting role in the offense has led to him being involved in many trade
rumors. He’s been in talks for Kevin Love, Paul George, and most recently,
Kyrie Irving.

他在NBA是個奇特的存在, 雖然他是all star也處在聯盟最有天賦的球隊中, 但往往他卻
是勇士核心陣容裡存在感最低的人, 他在攻擊端的貢獻讓他每每被捲入許多交易傳聞中
, 像是Kevin Love, Paul George, 以及最近的Kyrie Irving

Those trades have all been rejected by Bob Myers and the Warriors because
they know how valuable Thompson is to their team’s chemistry and makeup.
Klay Thompson has been molded into the perfect complement for Steph Curry and
Kevin Durant.

但那些交易全部都被勇士老闆跟經營團隊打槍, 因為他們很清楚K湯對於勇士化學效應跟
團隊組成有多重要, 現在K湯是Curry跟KD身旁完美的夥伴

He’s a constantly moving shooting threat that keeps the defense on their
toes and stretches the floor. While Thompson may be the most expendable
member of the Warriors all star quartet, he has transformed into the
archetypal shooting guard for the modern NBA and revolutionized the way the
position is played.

K湯是個持續移動的進攻威脅, 讓對方必須時時刻刻緊盯著貼身防守, 這讓勇士在場上的
空間得以拉大, 他或許是勇士四核心中最能拉開空間的人, 在現今的NBA中他轉變了SG並
進化了這位置的打法

Changing Of The Guard

Since the days of Michael Jordan, the shooting guard has been a glamorous
position. A highly athletic skilled player, the shooting guard would be a
dangerous one-on-one scorer and the focal point of the offense. Kobe Bryant,
Dwyane Wade, and countless others were all molded in the shadow of Jordan’s
influential take on the position.

自從Michael Jordan以來SG成了最迷人的位置, 擁有高度運動技巧的球員, SG是危險的
單打得分手也是攻擊端最重要的位置, 像是Kobe, Wade跟許多其他人都是在MJ的影響下
打出相似的表現

The NBA has changed. The old style of isolation hero-ball has vacated for a
modern pass heavy, fast paced game. The point guard is now the most ball
dominant position, in charge of the offensive load.

但NBA改變了, 老式的單打英雄球已然變成了高強度快節奏的比賽, 現在控衛是最主要的
持球者掌控著進攻

Klay Thompson has evolved into the perfect counterpart to the modern point
guard. One of the best shooters in the NBA, Thompson stretches the floor like
few others. He takes advantage of the space he creates by constantly moving
around the court, springing himself for open three pointers or layups.
Thompson leads the league in both catch and shoot attempts and makes.

K湯完美的融入了大控衛時代, 他是NBA最好的射手之一, 但他拉開空間的方式卻與他人
不同, 藉由不斷的在場上移動替自己創造出手空間並因此獲益, 不管是空檔三分跳投或
是上籃, K湯是聯盟中catch and shot次數最多也命中最多的人

Klay Thompson’s unique skill set was on display in his tour de force
performance against Indiana last year. He dropped a career-high 60 points
against the Pacers in only 29 minutes. It was a virtuoso performance that
crystallized Klay’s revolution: he only held the ball for 90 seconds the
whole game!

他獨特的技巧在2016/12/6對戰溜馬時嶄露無遺, 上場29分鐘砍下生涯最高的60分
然後更扯的是, 這場比賽他共只有觸球90秒!

However, it isn’t just offense that makes Thompson a special player. He is a
world class defender who prides himself on his defensive growth. Thompson
often guards the opposing point guard, saving Curry from tough defensive
assignments. In the playoffs, he’s matched up against some of the best
offensive players in the NBA. In last year’s Finals, he showed his defensive
range by successfully guarding nearly the entire Cavs lineup.

然而K湯不只是進攻強, 他現在還是頂級的防守者, 他通常都得去防守對方的控衛來保護
Curry免於防守時強硬的碰撞; 季後賽時他對位防守過一些聯盟最好的球員, 上一季總冠
軍賽, 他成功的防守了幾乎整個騎士隊的球員, 展現出他的防守範圍有多廣
