[外電] Hedo Turkoglu finding a fresh start …
PHOENIX — New city, new fans, new organization, new coach, new teammates and
even a new jersey number.
新城市,新球迷,新的環境組織,新教練,新隊友,還有一個全新的背號(19)。
After a more-than forgettable season in Toronto, Hedo Turkoglu is finally
able to put the Hedo-hate from Raptors fans behind him and turn the page to a
new chapter of his career with the Phoenix Suns.
經過一個令人不想回憶的多倫多寒冬,Hedo終於能夠將暴龍迷強大的"討厭特克魯"情節
拋在腦後,並且在鳳凰城重新開始生涯的新篇章。
“It’s a new start for me,” Turkoglu said when he was introduced as a
member of the Suns on Wednesday. “Like I say, I put (last) year away and it’
s a new start for me, a new beginning, so I’m looking forward to it.”
"對我來說,這是一個新的起跑點" Hedo在星期三的太陽記者會上說 "就像我說的,
我已經將去年甩開了,現在是一個新的開始,所以我會往前看."
The 6-foot-10, 31-year-old forward was reluctant talk about his 2009-10
season in Toronto, during which he averaged only 11.3 points per game — his
lowest since the 2003-04 season.
這位31歲,6尺10吋的前鋒,不是很想提起他平均11.3分的多倫多悲歌 - 這是自從03~04
球季以來的新低。
Turkoglu quickly fell out of favor with the fans and organization, but wouldn
’t get into much detail as to why the fit went awry so quickly.
Hedo對於他為何無法融入那邊並沒有太多的著墨。
“I really don’t like to talk about the past, I’m always for the future,”
he said. “The chemistry wasn’t there on both sides. I guess I wasn’t
really used correctly.”
"我不是很想談論過去的事,我總是瞻望未來." 他說 "我們之間的化學效應不是很好.
我猜想或許他們沒有好好閱讀Hedo使用說明書."
Some say he was out of shape and unmotivated, others say he wasn’t given a
chance to showcase his skills. But regardless of the reason for the fallout
in Toronto, Turkoglu and the Suns organization alike couldn’t be happier
that he’s in Phoenix and expect him to play at the level he did with the
Orlando Magic.
有人說他不積極,也有人說他沒有機會展現出他的才華. 但是無論如何,現在Hedo跟太陽
都十分開心他來到這裡,並且期待他能夠展現出他的魔力。
“We’re extremely happy to have him here. I think he’s one of those players
that can keep us playing at the level that we were at last year,” head coach
Alvin Gentry said of Turkoglu. “I think you’ll see a player that will more
than likely come back and play at the level he did when he had Orlando on the
brink of a championship.”
"超爽的阿,撿到一個Hedo.他是那種能夠讓我們至少跟去年一樣強大的球員."
當Gentry談起Hedo時 "你們將會重新看到一個變魔術的怪物球員."
Turkoglu broke out as a bona fide star in the 2007-08 season when he averaged
19.5 points, 5.7 rebounds and 5.0 assists in his fourth year with the Magic,
capturing the NBA’s Most Improved Player award along the way.
Hedo在07~08年球季展現出一名一線球星的實力,平均19.5分,5.7籃板還有5.0助攻,
這是他在魔術的第四個球季,同時他也拿下了該年的最佳進步獎.
He then went on to lead the Magic to the NBA Finals during the 2008-09
season, solidifying himself as a Mr. Fourth Quarter of sorts, drilling big
shot after big shot.
他在08~09年成了魔術王,帶領著奧蘭多狂殺猛殺衝到冠軍賽,搞定了一大堆關鍵投射,
大家都怕他,尊稱他為"第四節先生".
“He’s not afraid to take big shots, that’s the first step right there and
obviously he’s been very successful making big shots,” Gentry said. “What
it does is that it gives us another guy that at the end of games can take the
pressure off of Steve Nash.”
"他大無畏,而且很明顯的,他總是成功的完成那些投射" Gentry說 "他就是飄髮哥之外
太陽的另一個最終武器.
Turkoglu’s been a player that the Suns have coveted since 2004 when they
almost brought him to Phoenix. He figures to play multiple positions in the
Suns offense, serve as an alternative ball-handler and playmaker next to Nash
and drill big shots when they matter most.
太陽肖想Hedo已經很久了,自從04年差點就能得到他開始. 他能夠在太陽系裡扮演著
不同的星球,並且提供不同的持球選擇,以及成為老大之外的另一個比賽組織者.
But this is a team that is built around chemistry and cohesion. So how will
Turkoglu fit with the tight-knit Phoenix Suns?
但是太陽是一個團結一致,充滿化學物質的火焰球. 所以Hedo是否能夠徹底融入太陽體系
還是一個疑問.
“We’ve done a lot of homework in that area right there and I think he’ll
be fine,” Gentry said when asked that exact question. “He’s a guy that
really wants to win. He’s been a winner wherever he’s gone. I think he’s a
guy that will fit in well here.”
"我們已經把Hedo使用明書的練習題做過很多次了,所以我相信一切都OK的." Gentery
答到 "他是一個想獲勝的狂熱分子,他總是能夠當一個贏家. 我認為他完全能融入我們."
“I think that I can be a great fit here as a player and a person,” Turkoglu
added.
"我認為不管身為球員還是男子漢,我都能夠徹底融入這裡." Hedo說.
He sounded very willing to make sacrifices to win, whether it be playing time
or shot attempts, and seemed to understand how important chemistry is to this
Suns team. He explained that the Magic teams that he was so successful
leading were also built around chemistry, and that he wanted to gain a strong
relationship with the fans and his teammates.
Hedo了解為球隊犧牲奉獻換取勝利的重要性,不管是上場時間或是出手數,而且也了解
"團隊"在太陽體系中是多麼重要. 他解釋了他身為魔術師時,團隊合作也是非常良好,
同時也明白表示了希望能夠與球迷、隊友建立起緊密的關係.
“There’s a good chemistry to build around (Nash) and I can see it. Just
diving to the balls, picking up the guys — its all that good chemistry, that
’s how you are successful in this league,” Turkoglu explained. “If you
look at all of the good teams, besides being just good players they’re good
teammates too. They’re unselfish, they like to play off each other and they
like to have fun on the court.
"這是一個圍繞著飄髮哥建立起的良好團隊. 這是關於一個如何處理球並且分給隊友的
故事 -- 簡單的說就是"讚",這也是如何在聯盟中成功的方法. " Hedo說道 " 看看所有
的強隊,都是在一個強者的周圍,纏上了一圈好隊友.他們都是無私的、樂於分享,並且
在球場上找到樂趣."
“That’s what we did in Orlando, we were having fun on and off the court.
That’s how you really become a good team. Like interacting in the fans,
having fun on the court. Now that’s what I’m trying to do.”
"這也是我們在魔術時所做的,我們不管在場上場下都過的很爽,這也是我們如何變成一個
好的team. 例如跟球迷的互動,在球場上耍寶. 而現在我也是打算這個做."
Turkoglu no longer has to fight off the boos ringing through the Air Canada
Centre, or worry about being benched and mistreated by management. He is
finally able to rid himself of the Toronto demons and look forward to
re-gaining the reputation of one of the most versatile and clutch players in
the NBA.
Hedo不必再面對boooooooo想聽的噓聲,擔心猛守開特力或者遭遇奇怪的對待. 他終於可以
重新面對自己,重新找回那個擁有多種武器、強大心臟的自己.
“Last year — it was last year,” Turkoglu said. “I put that behind me. Now
is a new place for me, new beginning, new stuff. … I’m looking forward to
having another great year like I had in the past.”
"去年,就僅僅是去年." Hedo提到 "我已經將他拋在腦後了. 現在是一個新的環境,新的
開始,新的一切......我正在朝著一個成功球季前進,就像我曾經有過的一樣."
話說19號是帥哥Raja bell用過的背號,希望他在Utah一切順利。
