Mavericks' Jason Kidd and Suns' Grant Hill are forever linked By Brad Townsend / Reporter 7:33 PM on Wed., Jan. 4, 2012 http://ppt.cc/z9jh Suns forward Grant Hill and Mavericks guard Jason Kidd are forever linked because, in 1995, they were co-winners of the NBA Rookie of the Year Award. That was during Kidd's first go-round with the Mavericks and Hill's start with the Detroit Pistons. 太陽隊前鋒Grant Hill和小牛隊後衛 Jason Kidd從一踏入NBA就結下了不解之緣。在1995年，他們並列獲得年度最佳新秀。那是Kidd在小牛的第一個球季，而Hill則是剛從活塞起步。 Wednesday night, they again shared the same court, as Kidd's Mavericks hosted Hill's Suns. Hill turned 39 in October and Kidd turns 39 in March. Both have homes in Phoenix. They said they spent time getting reacquainted this summer. 星期三晚上，他們倆又再次站在同一個球場上，Kidd在小牛主場迎戰Hill的太陽隊。 Hill在去年十月滿39歲，而Kidd也將在今年三月邁入39歲。他們的家都在鳳凰城，這個暑假，他們花了些時間在一起重新認識彼此。 Hill said they were friends early in their careers, but had only spoken in passing since 1998 or so. "You are friends, then you become competitors," Hill, said. "Then I went through a real dark time (with injuries), when I was off the map a little bit. So we hadn't communicated a great deal throughout, until this summer. Obviously we see each other, there's always been a mutual respect, that no matter what we're forever linked. Hill說他們倆在職業生涯初期是朋友，但自從1998年左右以後，就只有遇見的時候才會聊一下了。「我們是朋友，後來成為了競爭者。然後我因為病痛經歷了黑暗的低潮，消失了好一陣子。所以我們就再也沒有好好聯絡了…直到這個夏天。當然，我們會看到彼此，一直以來相互間都存著尊敬，知道我們有著難解的聯繫。」最後一句有點怪@@ 不太會翻 "I was unbelievably excited for him last year to win (the NBA title). He was truly deserving. It was sort of the icing on the cake to just a wonderful career. And to know that I've been linked to him, I was pulling for him. I won't be pulling for him tonight, but I was then." 「對於能贏得總冠軍，我為他感到興奮，他確實值得一枚冠軍戒指。那對他精采的職業生涯可說是錦上添花。因為知道曾經和他有著聯繫，所以我會為他打氣。當然今天晚上的比賽我不會為他加油XD，但我曾經是支持他的。」 Kidd said his co-Rookie of the Year trophy is at home, "probably with a little dust on it." Hill said his father, Calvin, keeps his trophy at his home in Northern Virginia , next to the NFL Rookie of the Year trophy that Calvin won as a Cowboys running back. "You know, the funny thing is when you see those pictures of us (Kidd and Hill) holding the trophy together, we both look so young," Hill said. Kidd說他的最佳新秀獎牌放在家裡，上面大概積了一些灰塵。 Hill的獎杯在維吉尼亞州父親家裡，和父親在NFL牛仔隊贏得的最佳新秀獎杯放在一起。「古怪的是當你看到我們一起拿著獎碑時的照片，兩個人看起來好年輕。」Hill說 http://ppt.cc/IdRU 1995年最佳新秀 (網路圖片，非文章內容) "Time has gone by pretty fast, but a lot of that stuff was a looong time ago,"Hill said. "On one hand, you feel like 'Man, it was just yesterday. But then you realize so much has happened since then. So I think we're both somewhat at the same point in our careers. I think we're just trying to appreciate it and get the most out of these last couple of years." 「雖然時間過得很快，但很多東西真的是好久好久的故事了。一方面，你會覺得『天啊！那就像昨天的事一樣』，但馬上就發現這中間已經又發生了許多事情。所以我覺得我們倆多少處於職業生涯中的同樣階段，我想我們只是想盡可能地享受它，在最後的這幾年裡發揮最大的功效。」 Says Kidd of facing Hill, "It's good to see someone from my class out there playing. Grant has had a heck of a career. I know he's been hurt some. For him to continue to play at a high level, I'm happy to see that. "We talked in the lockout, being in Phoenix, we talked a little. He wants to get to 40. I'm hoping I can get to 40. The big thing is just being able to play the game against the best players in the world and hopefully help your team win. That's all we can ask for at this stage of the game." Kidd說：「能在場上看到同一個世代的球員感覺很好，Grant有著很屌的職業生涯，我知道他曾經受過點傷，我也很高興能看到他繼續在高強度的比賽中打球。」「在封館期間我們在鳳凰城稍微聊了一下，他想要打到40歲，而我也希望能夠打到40歲。最重要的是能跟這些世界頂尖的球員們在比賽中對決，然後幫助球隊贏球，這是我們眼下唯一所求的了。」 ---- 應該是挺惺惺相惜的故事，文筆不好，我盡力了Orz 翻完才發現Kidd只有最後一段說了幾句話XD -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 111.254.211.252
