寫的也蠻有愛的,很多中了林來瘋的症頭和大家都很像!^^;
這篇是用揪咪的球迷角度去寫的
若是原本就是尼克隊的球迷看了也不要不開心喔!
絕大部份的lin迷也是同樣關心尼克的!甚至變成尼克粉絲!
P.S. 因為之前看揪咪球賽都七點起床,結果今天時間到就醒了
剛好翻到這篇!

Jeremy Lin Injury Means No More Interest in New York Knicks
揪咪受傷意味著尼克不再吸引人
Whew. Wasn’t that an exciting NBA season? It flew by so fast,
ending almost as quickly as itstarted.
唉!不是曾有過讓人興奮的NBA球季嗎?但那消逝速度快到
就跟他開始的速度一樣。
Yes, I am aware that there are roughly four more weeks left in the
NBA schedule, but for certain fans,—i.e., myself—the season
ended when New York Knicks point guardJeremy Lin underwent
surgery to repair a meniscus tear in his left knee. His season is
likely over, as reported by ESPN's Ian Begley.
是的,我知道到球季大約還剩四周左右,但對於某些球迷來說,
比如說我本人,當尼克的PG揪咪林需要開刀進行半月板手術的
時候,就代表球季就結束了。
I know the NBA season was supposed to be a shortened one due
to the work stoppage last summer, but who knew that it would only
last six weeks? That’s approximately the length of Lin’s unexpected
and charismatic run.
我知道今年NBA因為夏季封館的關係比往年短,但誰料想到這球季
只有六週—也就是有揪咪無預警的爆發和充滿魅力的出場表現的時間
The twice-released third-string point guard burst onto the scene and
took the league by storm, infecting the city of New York, its legion
of rabid fans, the entire country and the world with the Linsanity
virus. From his first extended minutes against the New Jersey Nets
on Feburary 4th—when he scored 25 points off the bench—to his
final appearance of the season—a 24-minute showing in a blowout
of the Detroit Pistons on March 24th—Lin was what kept me engaged
in the otherwise redundant NBA.
這位兩度被釋出,三流的PG在聯盟當中掀起一陣炫風,感染了紐約,
吸引了大批狂熱球迷,整個美國以及全世界都患了林來瘋。從他在2/4
第一次對上籃網獲得較多的上場時間—當他由替補身分上場得到了25分
,到3/24本季最後一次對上活塞在球場上出現24分鐘—總是讓我覺得除
了揪咪之外NBA其他的事情都是多餘的。
In fact, it can be argued that during the height of Linsanity, when he
single-handedly carried the walking-wounded Knicks team to seven
straight victories in mid-February, Lin was the NBA’s savior. Apathy
toward the NBA from fed-up sports fans who chided the league, team
owners and even the players for the transparent argument over hundreds
of millions of dollars quickly evaporated when the Linsanity contagion
swept the nation.
事實上,被認為林來瘋最瘋狂的時刻,就是二月中的時候,當揪咪獨力為
傷兵滿滿的尼克隊帶來了七連勝,揪咪成了NBA的救星。林來瘋的魅力
橫掃整個美國
Admittedly, I myself went from a basketball boycotter to a
frothing-rabid Knicks fan in a New York minute.
當然,我本身就是由一個對NBA毫無興趣轉變成狂熱尼克粉絲的人。
It certainly was inspiring for this fellow Asian American from
the Bay Area to follow Lin’s ascent. Butbeyond race and his
geographical roots, Lin’s unexpected success could be appreciated
and related to by many different walks of life.
當然揪咪美國亞裔族群的支持者眾多,但撇開種族以及地域,揪咪的無
預警爆發和我們生活中許多點滴相關聯。
Who wouldn’t be inspired by a young man who: played college
basketball at Harvard; was signed by his hometown team
(the Golden State Warriors) as a rookie free agent last year;
was released days before his sophomore season in the NBA;
was cut again by a second team (the Houston Rockets)
less than a week later; and sat as the last man on the bench
on a talent-laden Knicks team before averaging 24.6 points
over a 10-game stretch?
誰能不被這樣的狀況給感動呢?在他過去十場比賽平均得到24.6分前
,他只是一個在哈佛大學校隊打球的年輕人,曾被他家鄉的隊伍(金州
勇士隊)在新人年以自由球員的身分給簽下,接著在NBA生涯的第二年之
前就被釋出,接著簽入第二個隊伍(休士頓火箭)不到一周後又被釋出,
在充滿高手的尼克隊當中,坐在板凳最後面守開特力的人。
It's a fairly incredible underdog story.
這真的是一個比扯鈴還扯的勵志故事
I, for one, was amped for every 4 p.m. start time on the West Coast,
following each scintillating update of his stats. Lin had me paying
attention to daily basketball performances in ways that no other
player could. I mean, Lin had me glued to the turnovers column
—who does that? What casual fan cares about turnovers?
Lin’s do.
我,或者是某個人,曾經總是每天下午四點開始,不停的追隨他的大小事
情。除了揪咪之外,再也沒人可以讓我開始專注的關心每日NBA賽績。
我想要說的是,揪咪讓我開始關心失誤,誰有失誤,為什麼其他的球迷會
在意失誤。
揪咪真的讓我這樣瘋狂!
(這也是我的心聲耶!!!!!!!)
While Lin’s meteoric rise was incredibly captivating, the
supernova of achievement and excitement eventually died down.
Injured starters Amar’e Stoudemire and Carmelo Anthony returned
to the Knicks lineup and head coach Mike D'Antoniresigned.
Losses mounted, abounding with turmoil.
當揪咪如流星般快速的升起,並且不可思議的迷人,他如同超新星的成
績終究還是有趨於平凡的一天。當受傷的阿罵和瓜瓜回到場上且冷笑話
辭職的時候,又開始了動蕩的時刻。
當揪咪如流星般快速的升起,並且不可思議的迷人,他如同超新星的成
Despite all of Lin’s accolades and the attention he was generating,
the team’s losses took center stage. Losing was the only thing that
could theoretically quell Linsanity.
即使揪咪有過戰績並且獲得許多關注,輸球仍是唯一可以遏止林來瘋
的事情。
Until the March 24th game against the Pistons, that is. What
seemed like an innocuous sore left knee turned out to be a meniscus
tear that proved to be too painful to function at a high level.
直到3/24對上活塞之前,看起來無大礙的酸痛膝蓋轉變成了半月板破損
使得他無法上場打球。
He needed surgery.
他需要手術
And just like that, Linsanity was eradicated for the 2011-2012 campaign.
就這樣,林來瘋徹底的由11-12的賽季中消失
Consequently, and coincidentally, my interest in the NBA—poof!
—vanished. What’s the point now? To see the same drivel shoveled
at us over and over again? The me-first NBA players who showcase
theirSportsCenter "Top 10" theatrics instead of true team-first
basketball?
因此,並且非常湊巧的,我對NBA 的興趣!嘿嘿!消逝了!這是什麼
意思!?總是看到胡亂的的狀況,看到了“個人優先”把NBA當作秀場舞台,
而非“團隊優先”的籃球
Nahhh.
哈哈哈
Lin seemed to epitomize everything that the NBA lockout was not.
After all, he wasn’t about the money (dude was sleeping on a teammate’s
couch). He was humble and gracious. And obviously, he was a hard
worker and incredibly determined to fulfill a dream to play in the NBA.
揪咪看起來是絕不是和NBA lockout時期的產物,至少,和錢沒有關係
(甚至還睡在隊友的沙發上過夜)他總是謙虛並且親切!而且顯然的,他非常的
努力並且用不可思議的決心來實踐在NBA打球的夢想
(注:lockout因為球員旱聯盟薪水談不攏,錢事沒共識)
It was refreshing to see Lin, an out-of-nowhere phenomenon, succeed
in a way that defied the platitudes of today’s NBA superstars. Lin
defied the odds in a myriad of ways—everything from where he went to
college to his height, his Asian-American race and his general skill
set.
看到揪咪總是讓人感覺清新,獨一無二的現象,成功的改變過去對於NBA
超級球星的觀感。揪咪創造了無限可能,包含了怎麼進大學到可以到達目
前的成就,他亞裔的身份以及他的技能
With Lin rehabilitating for at least the next six weeks, it’s safe to
say that the Linsanity clause no longer applies in my attentiveness
toward the NBA—at least not until he returns next season. But who
knows? Maybe the Knicks can finagle a postseason berth (they
currently sit eighth in the Eastern Conference) and last long enough
to welcome Lin back to the lineup.
在揪咪至少六週的復健期間,我可以放心的說林來瘋不會讓我再關注NBA
—至少是下季他回到場上前都是如此。但誰知道?如果尼克隊可以在季後
賽取得一個位置(目前他們排名東區第八),並且可以持續比賽到揪咪返
回場上。
If New York can manage to advance to the second round of the
playoffs, there’s a small possibility that Lin could be healthy enough
to rejoin the team.
如果尼克可以在季後賽進到第二輪,則就會有輕微的機會揪咪可以重新
回到場上
Yes, it’s an outside chance—but with regards to Lin, that’s all
he needs.
是的,這是個額外多出來的機會,但對於揪咪來說,這是他所需的。
Imagine Lin in a Willis Reed-type scenario where he comes off the
bench and rallies the Knicks to a series-clinching victory. It'd be the
perfect icing on the Linsanity 2012 cake. That type of riveting NBA
playoffs scenario would thoroughly engage his fans in the Linsane asylum.
想像以下的情境:揪咪從板凳出發然後帶給尼克一系列季候賽的勝利,
將會是2012 林來瘋的高潮!這樣的情境出現在NBA季後賽應該會使揪咪
的球迷們都瘋狂到失眠吧
However, if he is unable to appear in any games for the remainder
of this season and postseason, then the NBA playoffs will continue
to be the lengthy production that it always is. And that’s where the
enthusiasm in the NBA evaporates.
然而,如果揪咪無法出現在本季任何一場比賽,這樣NBA季後賽其實就會
和往年一樣,這使得大眾對於NBA熱情的消去。
If Lin ain’t in, then who cares?
如果揪咪沒能參與球賽,誰還在意這些
