Steve Kerr談重新簽回Kevon Looney對勇士的重要性

Steve Kerr在週三接受訪問時承認假如勇士失去了Kevon Looney,那將會對球隊造成嚴重的打擊。

早在4月的時候,Kerr已表示很想留住Kevon Looney:
引用Kerr在The Warriors Insider Podcast節目露面時承認這位四年的「勇士老將」,甚至稱他為勇士的最佳球員之一。對於在自由市場重新簽到Kevon Looney,Kerr表示:「這對我們勇士隊來說是一個關鍵的簽約,如果我們失去了Kevon,我們將會遇到很大的麻煩。因為我在年底說過他已經成為了我們的基石之一,他是我們最好的球員之一,也是真正值得被關注的球員之一。」

“That was a huge signing for us,” Golden State head coach Steve Kerr said of Looney. “Had we lost Kevon, we would’ve been in big trouble because — I said it late last year — he’s become one of our foundational pieces. I look at Kevon, with all of our departures, he’s now one of our best players and one of the guys that we’re really going to count on from night tonight.”

引用另外Kerr還透露Kevon Looney正努力練習外投。他希望讓Kevon有更多的上場時間,他憶述在幾週前碰面討論過:「我希望擴大他在場上的威力,你知道他慣常上場25分鐘,但現在我希望他打超過30分鐘。我還希望他能投三分。他有很好的球感,他在練習中也有做到。我希望明年他的攻擊範圍能擴大至0度3分線。我們會給予他更多的機會來擴大發揮。所以我很高興他回來了,他是我們的重要部分。而考慮到他的發展,這將會成為球隊未來的一部分。」

“I saw him [Kevon Looney] a couple weeks ago at the facility,” Kerr recalled. “We talked a lot about him expanding his game. I would like to play him more minutes. You know, traditionally, he’s been kind of a 25-minute a night guy. I’d love to get that over 30.” “I want him to shoot corner 3s,” Kerr urged. “He’s got a really nice touch and he shoots them in practice, but I think next year is the time to extend that range out to the corner 3, and we’re going to give him every opportunity to expand his game. So, I’m thrilled that Kevon is back. He’s a huge part of what we do, and I think a bigger part going forward given his development.”
Looney是2015年的第30順位選秀,被勇士選中後Looney在那裡過了NBA職業生涯中的整整四年。每年他都有進步。去年Looney在幾乎所有數據中均創下個人職業生涯新高,場均得到6.3分,5.2個籃板和1.5次助攻,投籃命中率為62.5%。

他以球場上的韌性和籃板保護造成威脅。雖然他沒有穩定的單打或跳投能力,但是Looney在籃筐附近有很高的完成度,他經常完成Draymond Green和Stephen Curry的傳球助攻和補籃。
