Novak nearing best 3-point season ever
By Jared Zwerling | ESPNNewYork.com
Novak 離最佳三分球紀錄只剩一步


The Knicks' overall 3-point percentage as a team this season wouldn't
indicate they have the best long-range gunner in the game. Currently, the
team's 33.1 percent accuracy from downtown is the eighth-worst in the NBA.
尼克本季的三分球團隊命中率，完全看不出來隊上擁有最佳長程火砲手。
截至目前為止('12.4.21) 33.1% 的命中率是聯盟倒數第八名。

But Steve Novak has basically single-handedly put the Knicks in a tie for
fifth place for most 3-pointers made (488). Novak is 125-for-268, and those
makes equal 25.6 percent of the total team amount. Carmelo Anthony is second
on the team with 65 (33.2 percent accuracy), and J.R. Smith proceeds him with
62 (34.8 percent accuracy).
但 Steve Novak 一夫當關，獨撐尼克三分火力，讓尼克可以站上三分球進球總數

As for Novak? Currently 46.6 percent -- the best in the league. In fact,

he's within striking distance of the best 3-point shooting season ever (with
a minimum of 250 3-pointers attempted). Former Knick Hubert Davis is third on
the all-time list. Here's a breakdown:





Highest 3-Point Percentage In A Single Season All-Time*
史上單季最佳三分球命中率
47.8 (162-for-339) -- Dale Ellis (SuperSonics; 1988-89)
47.8 (177-for-370) -- Joe Johnson (Hawks; 2004-05)
47.6 (127-for-267) -- Hubert Davis (Knicks; 1995-96)
47.0 (179-for-381) -- Steve Nash (Suns; 2007-08)
47.0 (207-for440) -- Glen Rice (Hornets; 1996-97)
*至少 250 次出手

Since Novak's breakout game on February 6, when he was 5-for-8 from beyond
the arc in a 99-88 win over the Jazz, he's averaged 2.9 makes out of 6.2
3-point attempts in only 21.4 minutes per game.
二月六日尼克以 99:88 勝過爵士隊，Novak 從那場開始嶄露頭角。當天他的三分球成績是
投八中五。自此之後，平均每場短短 21.4 分鐘的上場時間內，就能場均 6.2 次出手、
2.9 次進球。

That means per 48 minutes, Novak is on place to finish with the most
3-pointers made in a single season ever (with a minimum of 100 made). Smith
is currently first on the all-time list. Here's a breakdown:
換算成每 48 分鐘的數據，Novak 可能會創下「單季三分球場均進球數」的
新紀錄（門檻為至少投進一百球）。J.R 目前是紀錄保持人。下面是目前排名：

Most 3-Pointers Per 48 Minutes In A Single Season*
單季三分球、每四十八分鐘進球數排行榜：
5.3 -- J.R. Smith (Nuggets; 2007-08)
4.9 -- Eddie House (Celtics; 2008-09)
4.9 -- Steve Novak (Clippers; 2008-09)
4.9 -- J.R. Smith (Nuggets; 2006-07)
4.8 -- Dennis Scott (Magic; 1994-95)
*至少投進一百顆三分球



What's most impressive about Novak is that he's money from all across the
perimeter. The one area where he's slightly higher is from the right wing to
the baseline corner. To illustrate that, here's his ESPN "Zone Chart"
(entering Friday's play):

http://a.espncdn.com/photo/2012/0421/ny_e_novak_sy_576.jpg




Against the Cavaliers, he was 5-for-12 from 3-point territory. So on the
season up until this point, he's 61-for-120 from the right side, 23-for-55
from the top of the key and 41-for-94 from the left side.
在對上騎士這場比賽中，他三分外線投 12 中 5，所以截至今日('12.4.21)，他從右側
的進球數是 61-120，弧頂是 23-55，左側為 41-94。


Whereas most players say the shortened season has posed challenges,
interestingly Novak told ESPNNewYork.com recently that the condensed schedule
has benefited him as a shooter.
當大多數的球員都在哀怨縮水球季帶來的衝擊時，有趣的是，Novak 反而告訴 ESPN，
身為一個射手，壓縮的行程對他更有利。

"I think, to be honest, and it may seem funny, but the amount of games that
we're playing I feel like helps," Novak said. "Because you never go that long
of a stretch without getting up or down about a great night or a down night.
In like two hours, it's kind of like so what? You've got to do it again
tomorrow.
Novak 說，「老實講，雖然有點奇怪，但我感到目前的比賽量對我反倒是助力。
            一場比賽，很難避免一路的高低起伏。

nice to know that if you miss a couple or it doesn't go your way one night,
you get to play right away. So I feel like it's kind of easier to keep that
groove because mentally it's easy too."
「對我而言，這像是活在當下，不提當年勇 (*譯註) 般的事情。
  我知道，縱使失手了幾次、或者今晚打的不順，馬上就要面臨下一場。
  所以，保持節奏變的比較簡單，因為精神上的準備也比較簡單了。」
譯註： "What have you done for me lately?"
字面的意思是「你最近為我做了什麼事？」
但衍生意思可參考此網頁：

Of course, Novak's accuracy has a lot to do with his preparation, which is
basically the same every practice and game. After practices, he works his way
around the perimeter several times with an assistant coach, getting extra
shots in. Then, about an hour before tip-off, he practices different shooting
routines -- some standstill, some off of screens, some running into his
set-up and others from five feet behind the 3-point line.
當然 Novak 的準度，跟他的準備方式有相當大的關係，基本上每次內容都一樣。
練習之後，他還會跟助理教練額外加強練投。在賽前記者會的一小時之前，還會有不同的
投射菜單--定點、單擋配合、戰術跑位、甚至是三分線外五英尺(約1.5公尺)的投射。

Novak always looks balanced upon lift-off and release, which is a credit to
his footwork, and during games he utilizes a timely pump fake to create space
when the defender is closing in. In addition to his technique, Novak said his
confidence is higher than it's ever been in his career.



Every day, Novak estimates that he puts up between 500 and 1,000 shots --
something he's been doing ever since he was a kid growing up in Wisconsin.
Novak 估計他每天投進 500~1000 顆球 -- 從他打小就開始的作息。


Novak didn't stop then and he hasn't stopped now.
Novak，過去不曾停止，現在也不會停止...
