[外絮] Jeremy Lin & Kobe Bryant Have Very Dif
Los Angeles Lakers – Jeremy Lin & Kobe Bryant Have Very Different Motivations
洛杉磯湖人 － 林書豪與Kobe Bryant的動機分岐

Every player, almost every new season, has something to prove. But that
something? It differs from subject to subject, and maybe the two most important
players this season for the Los Angeles Lakers, Jeremy Lin and Kobe Bryant,
have a different set of goals going into the 2014-2015 NBA season.
每個球員在每個新球季都有些東西需要去證明，但需要去證明的東西就因人而異了。
像是洛杉磯湖人最重要的兩位球員，林書豪與Kobe Bryant在接下來的2014-15球季
就顯然有著不同的目標。
Lin is entering a contract year, after being overpaid, as most view it, by the
Houston Rockets. It doesn't matter to most that he was used in the wrong way,
treated unfairly by the head coach and put in a situation that didn't really
give him a chance to succeed. Even when he did shine under the circumstances
with great games that were about numbers, which is the bottom line for too many
people, he was often overlooked.
今年是林的合約年，之前火箭隊一直認為他高薪低能，完全不管這是因為他們不照
使用說明書，及教練的不公平對待，使得他缺少成功的機會。
雖然林書豪即使在這個情況下，依然在許多場比賽有著優異的表現，
但對許多人來說這只不過是他薪水的最低要求而已，
他的貢獻仍然時常被忽視。（感謝azure0920幫忙修正）
Kobe Bryant? He's here to prove he is still relevant. Despite being an MVP and
a five-time NBA champions with two Finals' MVP awards, there is a drive that
keeps pushing him. A few drives, actually. There's the hunt for that sixth
ring, so he can feel like he matches Michael Jordan, his idol and rival in too
many ways. This team won't win a championship and isn't set up to maybe for
another year or two, partially because of Bryant's contract. But that doesn't
stop Bryant from wanting, from dreaming of being good enough to carry this
weird group despite everyone saying that he's too old, coming off an injury
and simply not good enough again.
Kobe Bryant則是需要證明他依然老當益壯。
儘管過去擁有一座季賽MVP，五枚冠軍戒及兩座季後賽的FMVP，
他還是有一件未達成的任務。他要的真的不多，第六枚冠軍戒。
唯有這樣他才能去和他的偶像與追逐的目標籃球之神Michael Jordan比肩。
只不過以目前的這支湖人隊是沒辦法拿冠軍的，少說也還需要再過一兩年的整合，
更別說他自己的超大合約也是禍首之一。
儘管大家都說他太老，受傷，或單純的就是不行了，
這些都不能阻止Bryant想要帶領球隊前進的意志。
Maybe that's the biggest driving force in Bryant's arsenal this season. The
feeling that he's been counted out. With fingers pointing at him as the reason
for the Lakers falling from grace and not being able to get up. He played only
six games last season before being shut down. He obviously believes that he can
still play like Bryant from years past, but that motivation might blind him to
another obvious thing: Bryant trying too hard to play like a superstar comes at
the cost of too many things.
因為上個球季他只打了六場球就因傷整季報銷，
他被質疑他就是那個湖人無法重建的禍首。
這種查甫郎被說不行的感覺，也許就是Bryant本季最大的趨動力。
他顯然相信他依然可以用從前的方式打球，
但這個強烈的鬥志也許會讓他對其他顯而易見的事情盲目，
也就是當Bryant太用力的想要打得像是一個超級球星時，需要付出什麼樣的代價。
Lin is a team player so obviously he'd love for the Lakers to win as many
games as possible and maybe even sneak into the playoffs somehow, although that
seems unlikely right now with their roster and especially terrible defense, in
theory. However, Lin needs to think about himself as well. He'll be getting
the starting point guard role if Byron Scott still remembers what it is to be a
good NBA coach. Even if Nash starts at the point, his body won't last for
long, and Lin should be getting plenty of minutes.
林是一個團隊型的球員，他顯然很樂意幫助湖人隊贏下每場球賽，甚至能夠進入季後賽。
雖然以他們目前的球員陣容與破爛的防守實在不大可能做到。
只是，林真的需要好好地為自己想一想。
如果Byron Scott還記得怎麼當個好教練的話，林應該會成為先發控衛。
不過，就算是Nash打先發，以他的身體狀況大概也沒辦法打太久，
林應該會有許多上場機會。
Lin is special not just because of how he broke out into awareness, but also
for what he is as a player: A guy who makes the team better by being on the
floor, completely unselfish and always looking to make others better. He has
been compared to Steve Nash more than once, but he needs more than just to
improve his shooting to fit the mold – he needs to be given that kind of
chance without fearing the bench punishment for every little mistake.
林之所以特別並不只是因為他的知名度，更在於他是一個什麼樣的球員：
一個完全無私，總是找尋更好出手機會來讓球隊變得更有效率的球員。
雖然他已經常常被拿來與Steve Nash相提並論，
但他不只是需要提升他的投籃技巧，
他更需要不用擔心因為小錯就被關進冰箱冷凍庫的機會。
At some point, their goals collide and merge. Everyone wants to be on a winning
team, to succeed. But it comes from a different place for every player, blended
in with their personality. The problem for Lin going into this season just
might be the drive behind Bryant's comeback attempt: With Bryant being the way
he is, it might come at the expense of Lin's importance, making it another
frustrating season for a point guard who can't catch a break.
也許在某個時間點，他們兩位球員的目標會有衝突並融合。
大家都要想贏球，都要想成功。
但每個球員都有不同的出發點和不同的人格特質。
林在這個球季將會碰到的問題，也許就是Bryant捲土重來的企圖。
當Bryant想要用他從前的方式打球，這樣可能會消減掉林的重要性，
讓林再次渡過一個令人沮喪的球季。
