On Monday night, Marcus Smart was as fiery as we’ve seen him this season for
the Boston Celtics.And the target of his anger … his teammates.
周一晚上的Smart就像我們熟知的那樣激情,而他的怒氣則指向了他的隊友。
“I was telling my guys, 'We’re being punked out there,' " Smart told
CSN’s Abby Chin after Monday’s game against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
“ 'They’re getting every offensive rebound. They’re getting whatever
they want in the paint.Nobody’s boxing out, they’re pushing us under the rim.'
"I just had enough of it."
"我告訴他們:'我們在這被幹掉了!他們搶到了每一個進攻籃板,他們在油漆區內為所
欲為。而沒人還手,就這樣讓他們在內線打爆我們。我受夠了!'"Smart在訪談時這麼
告訴CSN的正妹記者Abby Chin。
Fortunately for the Celtics, Smart was not alone as the Celtics made the
biggest comeback in the league this season to escape with a 99-93 win over
the Timberwolves.
幸運的是Smart不是唯一一個這麼想的,他們展開了大反擊並以99-93擊敗灰狼隊。
Boston trailed 81-68 going into the fourth quarter, a sure-fire loss when you
consider each of the 39 teams that went into the fourth down by 13 or more
points this season wound up losing. But the Celtics engineered a 17-0 run
to start the fourth that paved the way for the victory.
Terry Rozier's 12 points off the bench were important. Ditto for Al Horford's
all-around night in which he filled the stat sheet in several categories
with 20 points, six rebounds, five assists and three blocked shots – a stat
line that he posted for the second consecutive game which had not been done
by a Celtic since Paul Pierce in November of 2002.
But as you talked to players after the win, it becomes clear that Smart's
speech was impactful.
大多數球隊在落後13分進入第四節時會輸掉這場比賽。但多虧Rozier與Horford的好表現
,綠衫軍得以打出一波17-0逆轉比分。但這一切都是從Smart的喊話開始的。
"Really it all started at the end of the third, Marcus Smart calling out all
of us," Horford told reporters after the win.
Jonas Jerebko echoed similar sentiments about Smart who had nine points, six
rebounds and five assists.
"They (Minnesota) were just playing harder than us the whole game before
that fourth quarter. Smart in the time-out, he called the whole team out,"
Jerebko said. "We had to come out and just play harder than them … and good
stuff happened."
After getting "punked" on the glass through three quarters (the Celtics
were minus-17 on the boards through the first three quarter), Boston
out-rebounded the Timberwolves 15-10 in the fourth quarter. They also shot
the ball better (55.6 percent to 20 percent), committed fewer turnovers (one
compared to three for Minnesota) and went to the line 10 times compared to 1
free throw attempt for the Timberwolves.
Boston was a lot more active at both ends of the floor, with contributions
coming from just about every player who stepped out on the floor.
Al在賽後採訪時表示這一切源自於Smart在第三節結束時的喊話,而JJ也同意這觀點。
即使前三節灰狼的表現較出色,回神後的綠衫軍活躍於攻守兩端,靠著場上每一位球員
的努力,在第四節全面性地壓倒了灰狼。
And while Smart may have been the catalyst of the comeback, the key to it was
how his words were embraced by his teammates.
"Everybody locked in and they agreed," Smart said. "We held each other
accountable. A 13-point lead for them (Timberwolves), it can go away real
fast in a game at this level. So everybody picked up their slack."
And in doing so, the Celtics (8-6) have now won two in a row with both
victories coming on the road.
"It's huge. It's something we need on the road," Smart said. "We been in a
little bit of a slump, win-lose, win-lose. To come down 15 and take the lead
and win it, was amazing for us."
儘管Smart擔任了球隊的催化劑,但重要的是球員們聽進了那番話。
"當每個人都收拾心態,變得更加專注並為彼此負責時;對手13分的領先優勢一下子
就沒了。"Smart如此表示。
"(客場二連勝)對我們意義重大,這就是我們在客場需要的。"Smart接著說道。
"賽季開始時球隊狀況總是起起伏伏,能像這樣克服15分落後贏球,我們感覺很棒。
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
重建這幾年,球員來來去去的
雖然Smart表現不是14梯裡頭最好的
但每次球隊在他的激勵下上演逆轉,就很慶幸隊上有這麼一個人在
也希望他的實力能像學長AB一樣逐年進步
在各種意義上成為球隊最不可缺少的那個人
