Alec Burks was largely an afterthought when he committed to Colorado-- a skinny 6-3 shooting guard with limited range on his jump shot. Now he's a legitimate-sized NBA wing player and one of the best scorers in college basketball, not to mention the leader of a team desperately trying to make the NCAA tournament. Alec Burks剛進科羅拉多大學時，主打二號位置，身高六呎三吋體型消瘦，跳投射程 還不夠。不過現在他已經擁有在NBA打鋒線位置的標準身材。 As an indication of how much he has progressed, Burks now ranks four in scoring on a per-40 minute basis amongst the top 100 NCAA prospects in our database,. It's not just the quantity of points he accumulates that intrigues NBA teams, though, but how he gets his offense. 他的進步幅度有多大。Burks在DX的前100大NCAA潛力新秀中，以每40分鐘為基準的平 均得分排在第四。 Burks is a shot creator, a skill that is highly coveted at the professional level. Over two-thirds of his offense is generated by himself, be it in isolation situations, in transition or in pick-and-roll opportunities. He ranks in the top five amongst our top 100 prospects in free throw attempts, and (more impressively) is second overall in makes because of the stellar 82.4% he shoots from the line. Burks能創造投籃機會，這項技巧在職業層級被高度嚮往。進攻端中，有超過三分之二 的比例是他自行製造的，其中包含一對一單打、攻守轉換間，或是擋拆搭配機會。罰球 出手次數在前100大NCAA潛力新秀中排第五，命中次數則排第二。 Capable of driving in either direction, Burks is a smooth yet explosive slasher with an outstanding second gear. He has excellent speed in the open floor and the body control and ball-handling skills needed to slither his way around opponents and get to the rim. 左右路徑的運球切入都擅長，Burks是名流暢擁有傑出變擋能力的切入者，但還不到 充滿爆發力。優異速度、身體控制能力，以及運球技巧有助於他突破防守者。 Burks is not yet a great finisher around the basket, as indicated by his sub-50% 2-point percentage. He must continue to fill out his frame as he struggles to finish through contact in traffic. He's a scorer through and through, though. He uses the glass nicely with reverses and such and has a knack for finding a way to put the ball in the basket, even in tight spaces. 在籃底下的進球率仍有進步空間。必須持續增強身材對抗性，因為行進間的肢體碰撞 會影響他進攻成功率。反手上籃善於運用籃板。即便在狹窄行進空間，有本領找到將 球放進籃框的方式。 Unlike most big-time scorers from small(er) colleges, Burks is a fairly unselfish player who is more than capable of making the extra pass. Even if he's often asked to be the one creating and finishing shots for his team (particularly late in the shot clock), he's a nice weapon to have in a half-court offense thanks to his solid court vision and good basketball IQ. When Colorado's starting point guard goes to the bench, Burks will man the position, which is a good indication of the versatility he brings to the table. 與其他來自小型學校的得分手不同，Burks是一名相當無私的球員。有可靠傳球視野以 及良好籃球智商，在半場進攻中很好發揮。當球隊先發控衛下場休息時，Burks會擔起 控球工作。 Defensively, Burks is somewhat of a mixed bag, but he shows good potential on this end of the floor. With his good size, nice length, excellent lateral quickness and solid anticipation skills, he has all the tools needed to guard his position successfully in the NBA. 防守上，Burks有點好壞參半，但展現出不錯潛能。良好體型、高度、優異的橫向敏捷 度，以及有效的預測能力，他擁有所需要的一切條件。 He generally puts in a good effort on the defensive end, getting low in his stance and often guarding the opposing team's best scorer—and doing so effectively for the most part. He already ranks as the second-best rebounding wing player in this draft class (after Travis Leslie), which has to be considered a good sign. 在防守端上不會怠惰且有效率，時常負責看管對方得分主力。在同梯側翼球員中， 籃板能力居第二。 With his narrow frame and lack of strength, Burks has some issues fighting through screens and will lose his focus occasionally, but based on what we're seeing there's no reason he can't be a good defender at the NBA level. 瘦長體型加上缺乏對抗強度，Burks在應付對手掩護時會有些麻煩，將不時會漏掉防守 對象。不過根據我們觀察，他在NBA層級有成為良好防守者的理由。 One area of his game in which scouts surely would have liked to see more progress this season is his jump shot. He doesn't take (or make) many 3-pointers —he's just 21 of 69 on the season from this range--but he is streaky from mid-range too, a place many Big 12 teams have forced him to operate from by taking away the paint with help-side defense. Burks has converted just 54 of 184 (29%) jumpers this season, largely due to his struggles shooting off the dribble (30 of 118, or 25%). 跳投這一區塊是球探們期望他能有所進步的。這個球季，他在三分線是69投21中，出手和 投進次數都不多。中距離也有些不穩定，許多Big 12球隊都善用這點來防守他。Burks這 季跳投僅184投54中(29%)，大部分原因在於不善於運球行進間跳投(118投30中，25%)。 Burks creates good separation from defenders in the mid-range area, but he has a tendency to shoot off balance. He tends to kick his legs out on attempts and not square his shoulders to the basket. His shot selection also leaves something to be desired—he makes just enough bad shots to lead him to believe he should be taking more off-balance, contested attempts, but not enough to lead his team to a better than 7-7 record in the Big 12 thus far. Burks在中距離能製造與防守者間的投籃空間，但他有傾向在身體不穩下出手。習慣 在投球時小腿外踢，雙肩沒有正向籃框。此外出手選擇時機也不理想。 With his feet set, Burks shows nice shot-making potential, often just throwing the ball in the rim in difficult situations. The minimal arc he gets on his jump shot doesn't leave him very much margin for error. 當他雙腳站定時，Burks展現良好進球潛能，時常在關鍵時刻進球。 This is an important factor in assessing Burks' NBA potential, as it's unlikely that he'll have the ball in his hands quite as often as he does at Colorado. If he can find a way to become a more consistent outside shooter, his transition to the NBA will be much smoother—something Evan Turner has learned the hard way as a rookie this season. 這是檢視Burks能否在NBA站穩腳步的重要因子，未來持球時間不太可能與在大學時一樣 頻繁。如果能有更穩定的外圍投射，適應NBA會更加順利。Evan Turner就在這點遇到瓶 頸。 As we learned with Turner, whichever team drafts Burks will need to put him in a role that suits his strengths, alongside teammates that complement him. The learning curve Burks has shown over the past two years is intriguing, though. There's a pretty good chance he's nowhere near his full potential at the moment, especially given his late growth spurt and the fact that he's one of the youngest members of his draft class, not turning 20 until July. 從Turner例子使我們了解，任何一支挑選Burks的球隊，需要將他擺在合適他的角色上， 讓隊友與他搭配。Burks在過去兩年展現的成長幅度令人垂涎，即便如此，此刻的他仍 有很大機會持續進步，尤其考慮到他是同梯中年紀最小的球員之一，到七月才滿20歲。 In a draft that looks increasingly shallow at the wing position, Burks stands out with his shot-creating skills and scoring instincts. If he can convince a team that his long-range shooting won't be too much of an issue in the NBA, he'll be a popular name during the pre-draft process. 這屆選秀在鋒線位置深度不足下，Burks善於創造投籃機會以及取分本能顯得更加突出。 如果他能說服球隊外圍跳投不是個嚴重問題，有助於選秀身價。 From DraftExpress.com http://www.draftexpress.com/profile/Alec-Burks-5819/#ixzz1IKzzFvlQ http://www.draftexpress.com -- DX在三月初完成的球探報告，還熱騰騰的，大概翻譯一下。可以和sato111先前 提供的一同參考。 這隻有通過市長認證和友情推薦。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 203.67.184.34
