[外絮] 林書豪慶幸沒入選今年的全明星賽
原文來源:http://ppt.cc/JXNQ
Lin 'thankful' he wasn't an All-Star this year
Jeremy Lin didn't really get a chance to watch most of the All-Star Game on
Sunday night.
Instead, the Rockets' point guard, went out to dinner with his friends and
family. But he did catch some of the game, enough to see his teammate, James
Harden, play some in the first half and some in the second.
Lin watched Harden play and said he was happy for him. But he also admitted
the All-Star Game wasn't for him. Not this year.
"I'm kind of thankful I didn't get voted because when … I want to make sure
I'm fully, fully deserving of it, when I play," Lin said after the team's
evening practice on Monday. "And I didn't feel like that was the case this
year."
因為和朋友與家人出門共進晚餐,林書豪並沒有看完星期天晚上進行的的2013全明星賽,
不過他還是有看到隊友哈登在全明星賽上的表現。
林書豪說他很為哈登高興,但同時也認為自己今年不適合進全明星賽。
在周一晚間球隊練習結束後,林書豪說:「我滿慶幸沒被票選為西部全明星先發......除非
我覺得自己的表現『完全』值得這份殊榮。以今年來說, 這完全無需討論。」
Lin received 883,809 All-Star votes this season. He received the third-highest
votes of any guard in the Western Conference. Kobe Bryant was first, followed
by Chris Paul, about 45,000 votes ahead of Lin. Had Lin been voted in, Paul,
the game's MVP, wouldn't have even been a starter in the game. He likely would
have made the team as a reserve, though.
在今年的全明星票選中,林書豪得到西區第3高票。Kobe穩坐第一名寶座,第2名的CP3比林
多了4萬5千票。如果林的票數超車,那麼今年拿到全明星賽MVP的CP3,也許只能以替補的方
式入選。
To put the number of votes Lin received in perspective, Harden was fourth
among voting for Western Conference guards with 485,986 - or nearly 400,000
behind Lin.
Did watching Harden play in the All-Star Game at the Toyota Center motivate
Lin to get to that level, to where he's deserving of playing in the game?
"I'm not really any more motivated to make it to the All-Star Game to be
honest," he answered. "I'm happy for James but for a player, I don't think
that's anybody's motivation."
從林書豪得到的票數來看,做為西區票選第4名的哈登拿到48萬5986票,比林書豪少了將
近40萬票。那麼在看到哈登在全明星賽中登場時,是否更加激勵到拿到更多票的林書豪前
進全明星賽的決心呢?
「老實說這算不上任何激勵,我很開心哈登能參加全明星賽,但身為球員,我不覺得這種
比較能激勵任何人。」
In his first season with the Rockets, Lin has started all 55 games, averaging
12.6 points, 6.2 assists, 3.4 rebounds and 1.9 steals per game. Lin signed
with the Rockets in free agency after going on a magical 25-game stretch with
the Knicks last season, which sparked the international "Linsanity" craze.
Lin wasn't an All-Star this year but he was a part of the festivities. He
participated in the Skills Challenge but didn't advance to the final after
recording a time of 35.8 seconds. He did get a chance to catch up with old
friends and former teammates who were in town for the weekend. He also got to
show off his new home city.
"It was fun just to see everybody here," he said. "It was nice. We were
comfortable. We were at home so we got to share our arena and share our city
with the world."
林書豪雖然未能入選全明星,但他參加了技術挑戰賽,繳出了35.8秒的成績。他也趁這次盛
會和朋友與前隊友相聚,向他們介紹休士頓。
「非常開心能看到大夥聚集在一起,能向全世界展現我們的主場與城市。」
Lin and the Rockets were back to work on Monday, although they had a rare
evening practice at the Toyota Center. The Rockets lost two of three heading
into the All-Star break but are 4-3 in February and are sitting in the
eight-seed in the West.
"Coach keeps talking about it as a playoff push and how it's going to fly
right by," Lin said. "It's all about seeding now and we have to make sure
we're in."
火箭球員在週一晚間回到Toyota Center練習, 全明星周前他們輸了3場比賽中的兩場,2月
份的戰績到目前為止是4勝3敗,暫居西區第八。
「教練不斷強調現在是衝擊季後賽的關鍵時刻,不好好把握的話機會便稍縱即逝。現在起
每場比賽都會影響排名,我們希望能確保在西區前八中。」
