Ham要求龜龜打出高水準的防守，龜龜接受挑戰

The Los Angeles Lakers were one of the NBA’s most disappointing teams this past
 season, as a roster that featured LeBron James, Anthony Davis and Russell Westb
rook meekly finished 33-49, missing out on both the playoffs and the Play-In Tou
rnament. While the Lakers were hit with injuries to James and Davis, there was s
till no excuse for the team to perform the way it did.



As a result, former head coach Frank Vogel took the heat, as he was fired back i
n April. The Lakers then brought in former NBA player and Milwaukee Bucks assist
ant Darvin Ham to be the next head coach. One of Ham’s most important tasks wil
l be getting the most out of Westbrook, easily Los Angeles’ most disappointing
player from 2021. In an interview on the Dan Patrick Show, Ham revealed how he p
lans to revitalize Westbrook next season.



Ham said that he “challenged” Westbrook to defend at a high-level next year, o
ne that the star guard accepted. The nine-time All-Star was a strong defender ea
rlier in his career, routinely posting defensive ratings in the low 100s.

Ham說，他向龜龜發出“挑戰”，讓他明年在防守端打出高水準的表現，這位明星後衛接受
了這個挑戰。這位九次入選全明星的球員在職業生涯早期是一名強大的防守球員。

Expecting a banner defensive year out of a 33-year-old Westbrook is not realisti
c, though he can certainly still make an impact on that end of the floor. What s
hould most excite Lakers fans is what Ham plans for Westbrook on the offensive e
nd.

期待33歲的龜龜打出一個出色的防守賽季是不現實的，儘管他仍然可以在球場的另一端產生
影響。最讓湖人球迷興奮的應該是Ham在進攻端對龜龜的計劃。

Westbrook will be in “different spots” on offense, with Ham saying that the La
kers will have him off-ball, handling the ball, posting up and even used as a sc
reener in the pick-and-roll at times.

龜龜將在進攻中處於「不同的位置」，Ham說湖人會讓他無球、持球、背打，甚至有時打擋
拆。

This will allow Westbrook to attack defenses from different areas on the floor,
hopefully making him more difficult to defend.

這將使龜龜能夠破壞任何場上的防守，希望讓他更難以防守。

Ham has the plan in place. It’s up to Westbrook and the Lakers to execute it, t
hough.

Ham已經制定好了計畫。不過，這有賴於龜龜和湖人的執行。

Ham能要求全隊都打出高水準的防守嗎
