NBA经过多年的演变，对球员的身体素质要求越来越高。正所谓一力降十会，拥有超强的身体素质对于在联盟取得一席之地有着重要作用。

　　毋庸置疑，NBA球员一直在向更快、更强、更高发展，专家杰拉德-纳西斯科评出了当今联盟身体素质最强的五大球员。

　　There isno doubt that NBA players are always on the track of  progress-faster,stronger and higher. Expert Steven Gerrard-Naxisike named the top fivephysical strongmen in today’s NBA League。

　　1、勒布朗-詹姆斯

　　No 1 LeBron James。

　　NBA恐怕从来没拥有过像詹姆斯这样身体素质超强的球员。身高6尺8寸，体重260磅，全身肌肉，詹姆斯无疑是联盟最具冲击力的球员之一。同时他还配备了控卫那样的娴熟技巧。他的爆发力和弹跳力让人惊艳，每当他扣篮的时候，他的眼睛就已经达到了篮圈的高度。说白了，明天就让詹姆斯去打NFL，是绝对没有问题的。

　　Perhaps no single player in the history of NBA can ever surpass LeBron James in physical conditions. With 6 feet and 8 inches in height, 260  pounds in weight, and besides, covered by strong muscles allover,  LebBron is undoubtedly one of the most physically offensive players in the NBA.  What’s more, his playing skills are also as greatas guards. His  explosive power and jumping ability are amazing. Everytime he dunks, his eyes have already reached the height of the ring. Toput it plainly, let James play NFL tomorrow, and there is absolutelyno  problem for him to do that。

　　2、德怀特-霍华德

　　No 2 Dwight Howard

　　有多少身高7英尺的长人具备了40英寸的垂直弹跳力？连续两年的扣篮大赛，我们都见识到了这个大块头出众的弹跳力和绝妙的创意。看看他一身健壮的肌肉吧，甚至有传言称“超人”能够举起365磅的重量。

　　I wonder how many 7-foot-tall guys possess a 40-inch vertical jumping ability. For two consecutive years at the NBA dunk contest,  we have seen this big guy’s superior jumping ability and wonderful  ideas. Look at his robust muscles all over! Someone even says,“Superman” can lift a weight of 365 pounds。

　　3、约什-史密斯

　　No 3 Josh Smith

　　这家伙第一步起跳的爆发力是如此之强，让他去参加奥运会跳远项目，相信一定能够拿到奖牌。空中接力是他在比赛中的保留节目。他有着足够的腰腹力量，6尺9寸的身高，加上240磅的体重，很难有对手防住他。如果你是个小个后卫，那么当心了，史密斯会把你的每次投篮都扇得老远。

　　This guy is so explosive in the first-step take-off. If he participates inthe Olympic Games, I’m sure he can manage to get a  medal in the longjump. Alley-oop is the subject he has at his fingers. With enough strength in waist, 6 feet and 9 inches in height, plus 240 pounds ofbody weight, he makes it very difficult for his opponents to defendhim. If you are a small guard, then be  careful, for Smith will blockyour ball far away each time you shoot。

　　4、内特-罗宾逊

　　No 4 Nate Robinson

　　但凡看过2009年扣篮大赛的人，都会对罗宾逊的身体素质留下深刻印象。身高5尺9寸的罗宾逊，体重180磅，垂直弹跳力达到44英寸。除了在篮球场上一展身手外，罗宾逊还曾打破华盛顿州110米跨栏的纪录，大学期间，他是校橄榄球队的首发侧卫。

　　Ibelieve whoever has watched the 2009 Dunk Contest will be deeply impressed by Robinson’s physique. 5 feet and 9 inches tall, 180  poundsin weight, his vertical jump ability reaches amazingly 44  inches. Inaddition to getting on the basketball court to show us what he’s got,Robinson also broke Washington's state  record of 110-meter hurdles.When at college, he was the school  football team's starting flanker。

　　5、香农-布朗

　　No 5 Shannon Brown

　　布朗的弹跳力让科比也是赞不绝口，后者甚至说：“比赛中香农跳得比我和 乔丹还要高。”事实就是，自从穿上紫金战袍后，布朗就成为了扣将的代名词。他对于篮筐有着近乎偏执的喜好，从来不惧怕在比自己更高大的对手头上扣篮。据说他的垂直弹跳力达到了45英寸。

　　Brown'sjumping ability is so highly praised by Kobe Bryant, who  even said:"On the court, Shannon jumps even higher than Jordan  and me." The factis, since he wore Lakers’ shirt, Brown has  become a synonym fordunker. He fancys the basket almost bigotedly and  always has the courage to dunk over the head of those big opponents. According to others, Brown can jump 45 inches vertically。
