勇士年輕一代是他後來居上？Kerr談Moody在這個賽季的成長

金州勇士本賽季想要兼顧現在與未來的計畫顯然失敗了。James Wiseman已經被交易，Jordan Poole的大合約讓人搖頭，Jonathan Kuminga掉出了季後賽輪換陣容，但這並不意味著Moses Moody沒有按照自己的步伐前進。

引用Steve Kerr最近談到Moody在2022-23賽季的發展：“他去年為我們帶來了一些美好的時刻，即使是在季後賽對​​戰達拉斯的比賽中，我也記得他有幾場精彩比賽，以他的成熟度觀點而言，他一直是讓我們印象深刻的人。今年，坦白來說，他在賽季中並不是很自信也找不到節奏，一部分原因是他在輪換中進進出出。”

在例行賽的大部分時間，Moody都是一名板凳球員，在勇士一連串傷病和不穩定情況下，他的出賽時間並不固定。不過在勇士的13場季後賽，Moody有7場替補出賽至少14分鐘或更長時間，顯見Kerr對這位年輕人的信任逐漸上升。

考慮到教練團在幕後從他身上看到的東西，Moody取得了重大但不足為奇的進步幅度。

引用Kerr：“最重要的是我們在賽季後期看到了Moody的突破，你必須明白我們每天都在看練習過程。發展不僅僅是關於比賽中發生的事情，而是關於每一天練習中所發生的，Moody賽季末在我們球員參加的比賽中有真正的突破，在3對3中以及個人訓練都是。你可以看見他意識到如何使用他的力量，他明白必須多努力打球，必須多努力追逐球和籃板。你快進到季後賽，突然間他又回到了輪換陣容中，在地板上俯衝拼搶球、得到進攻籃板以及命中投籃。所以我認為Moody取得了突破，這就是你要找的，你尋找的是一個有毅力堅持下去並繼續努力最終取得突破的人，但你只是不知道這個過程需要多長時間。”

隨著關鍵的夏天臨近，勇士將面臨許多問題，但Moody甚至有可能在2023-24賽季開始後，成為勇士年輕一代中最重要的那個人。

在有所“突破”之後，什麼是確定的呢？Moody將成為球隊一名主要輪換球員。或許要成為球星有段距離，但只要一步步在聯盟站穩腳步，Moody往後會有很多時間去證明自己。

引用“I think in Moses’ case he had some good moments for us last year, even in the playoffs against Dallas I remember him having a couple good games,” the Warriors coach told Tim Kawakami of The Athletic. “He’s always been somebody we’ve been impressed with in terms of his maturity and his perspective. This year, to be very frank, he was not really confident during the middle part of the season, couldn’t find a rhythm. Part of that was he was in and out of the rotation.”

引用“The biggest thing is we saw a breakthrough with Moses later on in the season,” Kerr continued. “You have to understand we look at practice every single day. Development isn’t just about what happens in the games, it’s about what happens in practice every single day, and Moses had a real breakthrough late in the season in the pickup games that our guys play, in the 3-on-3, the individual work. You could see he realized how to use his strength, he realized how hard he had to play, how hard he had to go after loose balls and rebounds. That translates. You fast forward to the playoffs and all of a sudden he’s back in the rotation, diving on the floor for loose balls, getting offensive rebounds, knocking down shots. So I think Moses had a breakthrough at the end of the year, and that’s what you look for. You look for someone who’s got perseverance and stays with it and keeps working and eventually breaks through. But you just don’t know how long that process is going to take.”
