因為很長所以想說就把它分成兩篇如有不妥版主請告知:)我再移過去 ----------------------------------------------- "I don't think he weighed 100 pounds," Griffith said. "I'm telling you, he was a little-bitty something, but there he was, directing traffic, in charge of his team. He'd fight you tooth and nail. Whatever you threw at him, he'd stand up to it." 「我甚至不認為他有100磅。」Griffith說。「我會告訴你，他是個小傢伙。但他就在那兒，在場上指揮他的隊伍，他會徹頭徹尾與你戰鬥，不論你把什麼東西丟向他，他都會堅強的面對。」 Griffith has never believed in so-called star players, and says he never had a player average more than 16 points per game. His team pressed and ran, and pressed some more. In Johnson's senior year at St. Augustine's, the roster was 15 deep, and Griffith played all 15. Johnson did not start until the state playoffs. In the quarterfinals, he stole the ball at midcourt, went hard to the basket, then fired a behind-the-back pass to a teammate for a score. Johnson went back on defense, and stole the ball again. "He was scared to death I was going to get on him about the behind-the-back pass, but I let that one slide," Griffith said. Griffith不相信所謂的明星球員。據說他從未讓任何一位子弟兵場均超過十六分。他的球隊全員給予對手壓迫、不斷跑動。在AJ高三那一年，球隊中共有十五個人，而 Griffith讓這十五個人都有球打。AJ直到州季後賽才進入先發陣容，在八強賽中，AJ 在中場抄到了球，殺入禁區，然後露了一手背後傳球給他的隊友得分。之後AJ回頭防守，又抄到了一球。「他很怕我會為了那球背後傳球責備他，但我讓那球就這麼算了。」Griffith說。 (其實我不懂為什麼要責備他。) Undrafted by the NBA, Johnson was going to get his master's degree, but got a call from the SuperSonics. He made the team, beginning a 16-year NBA career that included a title-winning basket against the Knicks, and non-stop overachieving. Bernard Griffith said the greatest challenge in coaching Avery Johnson was finding new ways for him to work, because he'd always do everything Griffith asked, and more. The old-school coach worked for Johnson as an assistant coach in player development when Johnson coached in Dallas. "It's something we'll visit (again)," Johnson said. Griffith makes no guarantees about what the Nets will do next year, but he knows that Johnson has no fear in taking the team over, and no doubt that they will take on the coach's personality, just as Johnson took on Bernard Griffith's. 沒有進入NBA，AJ本來要繼續進修他的大學學位，但超音速找上了他，從此開始了AJ 16年的NBA生涯，期間包括一個擊敗尼克獲得的總冠軍(98-99)，和一次又一次的超越自我。Griffith表示，指導AJ時最具挑戰性的事就是找出新的事情讓他做，因為他總是在做Griffith要求的事，並且做的更多。這位學院派教練在AJ任職於達拉斯時，也擔任他的助理教練，負責球員發展的事宜。「我們將會再見到這場面。」AJ說。Griffith 不保證明年籃網會做出什麼，但他知道AJ對於新挑戰無所畏懼，而且無庸置疑地，籃網球員們將會感染AJ的特質，就像AJ當初感染Griffith的特質一樣。 "Their toughness will improve. The way they attack the game will improve. The defense will improve. There's no way they won't be successful," Griffith said. (跟上篇文重複) Bernard Griffith dislikes much of what he sees in sports these days, hot-dogging and self-promotion chief among them. The cheapness of superlatives is another major irritant. To Bernard Griffith, "pretty good" is high praise. It means you are getting after it, imp roving every day, putting all you have into the process of becoming better at what you do. The man who shaped Avery Johnson's competitive template is ready to issue his report card. Griffith並不喜歡他所看到現今體育界的一些現象，諸如一些名不符實又自命不凡的「領袖」；浮誇、華麗而廉價的造神言辭對Griffith則是另一大刺激。對他來說，「很不錯」已經是最高等級的讚美。這代表你要不斷的超越，每一天都盡你所能的做到更好。這個塑造出今日AJ形象的人已準備好發表他的結論。 "I think he's pretty good," Bernard Griffith said. "He's got room to get better, but he's already pretty good." 「我認為他很不錯。」Griffith說，「他嘗試讓自己更好，但他已經很不錯了。」 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 感覺就是個鐵血教頭如果真的來會不會對籃網的年輕小夥子們有幫助呢? (或許T-Will就會比較乖一點) 第一次翻外電其實有很多地方不太會翻哈如果有翻譯上的錯誤或不順請不吝給予改正和建議謝謝~ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 112.104.36.77 ※ 編輯: purplecoldly 來自: 112.104.36.77 (06/20 22:57)
