根据周四上午公布的nba媒体投票结果,洛杉矶湖人队前锋勒布朗·詹姆斯入选nba最佳阵容第三名。詹姆斯获得了13张第二阵容的选票,72张第三阵容的选票。这是詹姆斯连续第15年入选nba全明星阵容,但这是他第一次进入第三支球队。这也是自2006-07赛季以来詹姆斯第一次没有入选一线队。 p>
詹姆斯仍然是联盟中最好的球员之一,获得这一荣誉并不完全令人震惊,但在某种程度上,由于一些因素,他似乎能够克服在选民的眼睛。首先,湖人错过了季后赛,这对一个nba球员的职业生涯来说是一个巨大的打击,而詹姆斯也只打了55场比赛,这是他职业生涯中最少的一次。 p>
尽管如此,当詹姆斯在场上的时候,他确实打出了全nba水准的表现,场均35.2分钟,27.4分,8.5个篮板,8.3次助攻。詹姆斯的投篮命中率也达到了51%,尽管这是他四年来投篮效率最低的一次。此外,当詹姆斯打球的时候,湖人队每100场比赛的得分比他不打球的时候要高7.9分——这是全队超过6场比赛中最高的一次挥杆——这证明了他的价值,即使在下半场受到阻碍的时候。 p>
对于湖人的大部分挣扎,詹姆斯也几乎没有什么过错,因为他的腹股沟受伤——他职业生涯中最严重的受伤——主要是导致球队这个赛季的出轨,而不是缺少詹姆斯的帮助。尽管詹姆斯缺席了这么长时间,但他还是入选了第三支球队,这证明了选民们对他在比赛中的地位的“尊重”,也证明了他在球场上对湖人的影响力有多大,同时他还在从长期缺席中恢复过来。明年将是真正的考验,如果这只是一个短暂的下降,在詹姆斯上升到最伟大的球员的地位,或真正的开始下降。湖人队希望是前者。 p>

LeBron James makes All-NBA third team
原文:
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James has made the All-NBA third team, according to the results of media voting released by the league on Thursday morning. James received 13 second team votes, and 72 third team votes. James has now tied Kobe Bryant, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Tim Duncan for the most All-NBA selections ever:
This is James’ 15th consecutive year making an All-NBA team, but his first time on the third team. This is also the first time since the 2006-07 season that James did not make the first team.
James — still among the best players in the league — getting honored isn’t a complete shock, but it was in doubt on some level due to a few factors that it seems he was able to overcome in the eyes of voters. For one thing, the Lakers missed the playoffs, which is always a possible ding on a players’ All-NBA resume, and James also played in just 55 games — the fewest of his career.
Still, when James was on the floor, he certainly posted All-NBA-caliber production, averaging 27.4 points, 8.5 rebounds and 8.3 assists in 35.2 minutes per game. James also shot 51 percent from the field, although that was his lowest field-goal efficiency in four years. Additionally, the Lakers were 7.9 points per 100 possessions better when James played than when he didn’t — the highest swing of anyone on the team to play in more than six games — a testament to his value even while hampered for the second half of the season.
James was also hardly to blame for the majority of the Lakers’ struggles, as his groin injury — the most serious injury of his career to date — is mainly what derailed the team’s season, not some lack of stepping up from James. Him making the third team in spite of missing so much time is evidence of the voting bases’ respect for James’ stature in the game, as well as how much he was able to impact the Lakers while on the floor while still recovering from his lengthy absence. Next year will be the real test case for if this was just a brief dip in James’ ascent towards greatest player ever status, or the start of a real decline. The Lakers have to be hoping it’s the former.
