A look at the Suns roster, as it stood when the 2006-07 season ended, with a
look back and a look ahead:
在'06-'07年球季結束的此刻，我們來檢查一下太陽的球員名單，回顧過去順便展望未
來：

一、Marcus Banks：

'06-'07 performance：He signed a five- year, $21 million contract to provide
relief as Steve Nash's backup but was unable to secure the job and barely
played after the All-Star break. He had the worst plus-minus ratio of any
regular when he did play.
'06-'07年表現：太陽和他簽下了一紙五年，總值2100萬美元的合約，期望他能分攤部
分S.Nash的控球重任但他的表現無法讓球隊安心把這個工作丟給他而且在全明星週末後幾
乎沒得到多少上場時間。他這個例行賽在場上時球隊的正負分率是職業生涯新低。

'07-'08 Outlook：The Suns may try to trade Banks, though Banks' four remaining
contract years could make that tough. Phoenix may become the third team willing
to give up on the four-year vet.
'07-'08年展望：太陽可能會嘗試將Banks交易出去，雖然Banks剩下的四年合約會讓交
易難度提高不少。太陽或許會成為第三支放棄這個四年級生的球隊。

二、Leandro Barbosa：

'06-'07 performance：A runaway Sixth Man Award winner, Barbosa had a
breakthrough season with career-best production. He led Phoenix in scoring in
10 of the regular season's final 22 games but struggled with shooting and fouls
in the San Antonio series.
'06-'07年表現：打出職業生涯最佳表現的小巴以極大差距在年度最佳第六人的票選中
勝出。太陽最後22場例行賽事中他有10場得分冠於全隊，但在與聖安東尼奧馬刺的系列賽
中卻飽受屢投不進和犯規麻煩的困擾。

'07-'08 outlook：At 24 and with a willingness to work and learn, Barbosa has
upside to be a star. He has superior speed and instincts that will improve,
particularly on defense. The Suns were lucky and smart to sign him to a
five-year, $33 million extension.
'07'-08年展望：才剛24歲而且有一顆樂於付出和學習的心，小巴擁有成員一位明星球
員的潛質。他有過人的速度和本能條件，這讓他有機會繼續進步，尤其是在防守方面。太
陽很幸運也很聰明能和他簽下一張五年，總值不過才3300萬的延長合約。

三、Raja Bell：

'06-'07 performance：Bell's notoriety finally caught up with his defensive work
over the past few years to put him on the All-Defensive first team. His
perimeter accuracy stayed consistent and his heart continued to send life
through his team.
'06-'07年表現：惡名昭彰的辣椒標在過去幾年以來精湛的防守表現終於贏得評審委員
的青睞，在這個球季首度入選了聯盟防守第一隊。他外線準確率依然穩定而且願意為球隊
拋頭顱灑熱血，在所不惜。

'07-'08 outlook：Bell is often the player Mike D'Antoni can't afford to take
off the court but off-season additions could scale back Bell's time. He has
averaged 40 minutes per game the past two postseasons and 37 in the past two
regular seasons.
'07-'08年展望：M.D'Antoni最不願意換下場的球員總是辣椒標，但季外的補強或許可
以稍微降低辣椒標的上場時間。他在過去兩個球季季後賽平均上場時間多達40分鐘而例行
賽季期間也達到37分鐘。

四、Pat Burke：

'06-'07 performance：He had a stint of regular time in mid-February, including
the memorable five-foul first half. Burke became more famous for in-arena
videos and mop-up three-pointers. He either was not given a serious chance or
did not give himself one.
'06-'07年表現：他在二月中曾經分到一些上場時間，包括一場"令人難以忘懷"，在上
半場就領到五犯的比賽。Burke藉由一些場內播放的影片和垃圾時間的歡樂三分而變成球隊
除了Gorilla外最受歡迎的吉祥物。但他和Banks一樣沒有獲得太多機會或者該說他自己的
表現也不夠爭氣。

'07-'08 outlook：Burke's constant criticisms of D'Antoni's rotation on an
azcentral.com playoff diary will not help his cause to return. But that was
doubtful anyway. At 33, Burke may have to return to Europe.
'07-'08年展望：Burke接連不斷在azcentral官網季後賽日記對於D'Antoni調度的批評
對於他希望留隊的目的並不會有所幫助。但無論如何，那都還難以預料。33歲的Burke或許
會被迫回到歐洲討生活。

五、Boris Diaw：

'06-'07 performance：No Suns player had a more difficult adjustment to Amare
Stoudemire's return than did Diaw, who thrived on playing at the elbow and with
the ball. He still showed great passing skills but was panned for passivity in
scoring and rebounding.
'06-'07年表現：沒有任何一位太陽球員在阿罵歸隊後所需面臨的調整情況比屌爺還要
嚴峻，罰球線附近(高位)的持球打法是他賴以在這個聯盟中生存的武器。他仍展現了出色
的傳球技巧但因為在得分和籃板方面表現被動而引起各界嚴加撻伐。

'07-'08 outlook：Diaw will be expected to arrive for training camp in better
shape. D'Antoni defended Diaw as being "a lot of times the best player on the
floor" and said the Suns would return to running more offense through Diaw next
season.
'07-'08年展望：大家期待屌爺能帶著更好的體態回到訓練營來。D'Antoni為屌爺辯護
，說他"大部分時候都是場上的最佳球員"並表示太陽下個球季會更倚賴屌爺來發動攻勢。

六、James Jones：

'06-'07 performance：Jones got off to an awful shooting start until a return to
the leather ball changed his stroke - or his mind-set. D'Antoni never wanted to
get away from Jones' knowledge of the system, help defense and three-point shot
(45.2 percent in 13 starts).
'06-'07年表現：小JJ季初投射狀況只能用糟透了來形容，一直到聯盟決定換回皮球後
他的命中率才逐漸回穩 - 或者這根本是他心態上的問題。D'Antoni絕對不希望失去小JJ對
於這個系統的了解，他在防守端和三分線外(13次先發上場三分命中率達45.2%)的貢獻。

'07-'08 outlook：Jones is an ideal role player at a $2.9 million salary for
next season. A better ability to hit shots off the dribble or inside the arc
would be a boost. He hit only 35.6 percent of his two-point shots this season.
'07-'08年展望：以下個球季290萬美元的薪資來說小JJ是一個理想的綠葉球員人選。
如果他能增加運球切入或禁區單打的能力就更完美了。他本季的兩分球命中率是慘不忍睹
的35.6%。

七、Jumaine Jones：

'06-'07 performance：He figured to be a contributor as he had been for his
other teams but an off-season injury had him out of shape for camp. He got one
shot at the rotation in late December but lost the spot to James Jones and
wound up inactive down the stretch.
'06-'07年表現：他過去效力於其他幾支球隊時一直被認為是個能夠對於球隊有所貢獻
的球員但季外的傷勢讓他帶著走樣的身材來參加訓練營。他在十二月底曾得到打進固定輪
替陣容的機會但最終還是將那個位置還給了小JJ而且一直到球季結束都被放在非出賽名單
中。

'07-'08 outlook：He is a free agent who could draw interest based on his NBA
history. But when the Suns signed him, Jones was on the cusp of going overseas
for more money. He may try that plan.
'07'-'08年展望：根據過去在聯盟中的表現，他是一個可以吸引一些球隊興趣的自由
球員。但自太陽簽下他後，大JJ已經快要變成到海外討生活才能掙得更多的錢的球員了。
他或許真會嘗試這麼做。
