[花邊] Podz:他們離開時希望能接過火炬把球隊交給我
Podziemski has achieved the dream, but as he enters his third NBA season, he
wants to take his game to new heights.
“There’s a next step in evolving emotionally, and as a leader,” Podziemski
told The Athletic. “Having confidence from your teammates is one thing,
especially the vets, but them trusting you in big moments that could define
their career. Could add another piece to their career. For them to have trust
in you is a different thing, and you got to earn that over time, and I think
that’s a goal of mine going into this season.”
There is depth behind the words that Podziemski speaks. He wants to be a key
piece for a Warriors team with three potential Hall of Famers and
championship aspirations, but he also wants to prove he can be the Warriors’
future cornerstone.
“When they leave this thing, they got to leave it with somebody,”
Podziemski said of the Warriors’ veterans. “How can I have their trust?
And they can go to (owner) Joe (Lacob) and (general manager) Mike (Dunleavy)
and be like, “Hey, we want to leave it with him. He’s going to continue
what we’re leaving. So, I think about that all time, and I set myself up in
that position, to have that. And there’s a lot of other things than just
skill that you need to be in that position.”
As Podziemski describes his point, he offers a glimpse of why the Warriors’
locker room feels as strongly as it does playing behind its stars each
night: the intangibles.
Podziemski已經實現了那個夢想,但隨著他即將邁入第三個賽季,他希望能將自己的表現
提升到新高度。
「在情緒掌控與領導能力上進化,是下一步要做的事,得到隊友尤其是老將的信任,是一
回事;但讓他們在足以定義職業生涯的關鍵時刻託付於你,這需要時間積累,而這正是我
新賽季的目標。」Podziemski接受《The Athletic》專訪時坦言。
話語背後蘊含深意。他既渴望在擁有三位準名人堂球員的勇士扮演要角,更立志證明自己
足以成為球隊未來基石。
「當他們離開時,總要有人接過火炬,我該如何贏得他們的信任?讓他們能去跟老闆Joe
Lacob和總管Dunleavy說:『嘿,我們想把球隊交給他,由他來傳承他將延續我們建立的
傳統。』這是我時刻思考的目標,因為要做到這一點,光靠球技是不夠的還需要很多其他
的東西。」
Podziemski在闡述觀點時,也展現了為何勇士更衣室內的氛圍如此強大,那份無形的凝聚
力。
“Nobody wants to play so hard for Steph (just) because he can shoot the s—
outta the ball,” Podziemski said. “Nobody wants to play hard for Draymond
(just) because his voice is the loudest. It’s doing the right things
consistently, being at the right place, the right time, always taking young
guys under their wing, showing them the way. That’s the reason why game
days, people play so hard for Steph. If someone knocks him down we’re always
right there, got his back.
But it was what came when asked what a potential next step looks like for
Podziemski that was most noteworthy. “Honestly, you’ll laugh,” Kerr began.
“But leaving the refs alone. That’s important. It’s important to his
energy, his mindset, it’s important for our team’s mindset. And taking that
next step in terms of being more even-keeled. One of the hardest lessons I
ever learned as a player is when you have that bad night you have to move on
quickly, and you can’t let it get to you. You can’t carry it over into the
next day’s practice.”
“First year it was like, How can I be first team All-Rookie?” Podziemski
said. “Last year, I wanted to be [the] Most Improved Player. This year, I
was just like, “Why really have a goal?” I know there’s a purpose for it —
like, I wanted this so it’s something to look at, but I really don’t have
one …
“Obviously, some people will look at it and be like, ‘Oh, that means he
doesn’t really care as much about getting better,’ but I think it’s the
opposite. I want to be a third option for this team. I want to be a guy where
Steph and Jimmy are out, like they can rely on me to help win games.”
Podziemski wants to be a player the Warriors can trust. He knows it’s a
recognition that comes through time, a reward that can only be achieved
through doing the work every day. It’s a blueprint that Podziemski has
watched Curry thrive within, leadership footsteps he hopes to follow. It’s
the challenge Podziemski is ready to accept this season.
「沒有人會只是因為Curry投籃準,就願意為他拼命;也沒有人只是因為Draymond聲音最
大,就願意替他賣命。真正的原因是他們總是持續做對的事,總是出現在對的時間、總在
正確位置出現,永遠引導年輕球員,這就是為什麼大家會那麼努力為Curry打球,如果有
人撞倒他,我們一定第一時間上前保護他。」Podziemski說。
當被問到Podziemski下一步要改進的地方時,Kerr回答:「說實話,你可能覺得好笑,但
他得學會別再跟裁判爭辯,這對他的心態,對整支球隊的心態都很重要。學會更穩定是他
下一步的關鍵。我球員時代最深刻的教訓就是:糟糕的夜晚後必須迅速翻頁,絕不能讓挫
敗蔓延到隔日的訓練。」
「新秀年我想入選年度新秀一陣,上季想爭取最佳進步獎,今年卻自問:『為何非要設定
目標?』有人或許覺得這代表我不求進步,但事實正好相反我想成為球隊第三選擇,當
Curry、Jimmy不在場上時,我希望他們能依賴我幫助球隊贏球。」
Podziemski想成為勇士能信任的球員,他知道這種信任必須靠時間與日復一日的努力去
贏得。這是Curry成功走過的藍圖,也是他希望追隨的腳步。
