先來個無聊猜謎:NBA新教頭從哪來?
http://0rz.tw/f34bU
以下這篇文摘錄自ESPN.com 由Stephen A. Smith執筆
Updated: June 3, 2008
Most of the Detroit players liked Saunders as a person. Despite quiet
rumblings about his penchant for calling just three plays, they still
respected his knowledge of X's and O's, along with a Pistons coaching record
of 176-70.
大部分活塞球員喜歡老桑這個人。即便他只喜歡叫三個戰術,他們還是尊敬他關於戰術
方面的學問和他在活塞執教的戰績。
What the players couldn't respect was his unwillingness -- despite the
prodding of Dumars and several veterans -- to trust younger players such as
Jason Maxiell and Amir Johnson because of the toll that it was visibly taking
on Wallace, Antonio McDyess and others.
球員不敬重的是他不願意相信像Maxiell和Amir這些年輕球員。
Plus, Saunders wasn't Larry Brown.
而且老桑還不是布朗爺。
Understand, the end for Saunders may have officially come Tuesday, but his
days have been numbered since Game 5 of last season's conference finals, when
he allowed LeBron James to erupt for 29 of Cleveland's final 30 points.
上季東區冠軍戰第五戰他讓LBJ拿下騎士最後30分當中的29分。
In that game, Saunders never double-teamed James, wearing his veterans down
in the process. The tactic failed so badly that Rasheed Wallace, irate after
the loss to the Cavaliers, erupted with a profanity-laced tirade in the
locker room, vehemently lamenting Saunders' refusal to place faith in younger
players on the squad.
那場比賽中老桑沒讓球員包夾LBJ,讓他的老將累壞了。賽後Sheed也對老桑不相信板凳
球員感到非常不滿。
After the Pistons lost that series in the ensuing Game 6, Wallace pulled a
reporter to the side and begged for the return of none other than Larry
Brown, who all the players profoundly respected and wanted to play for.
Sheed在第六戰輸掉系列戰後還把一個記者拉到一旁,懇求布朗爺能回來。
"We still love LB," one player said, requesting anonymity. "LB was something
special. He knew his stuff but also knew us to a tee.
一位不願具名的球員說: 我們仍舊愛布朗爺。布朗爺很特別。他不但對他的專業有所
了解,他也非常了解我們。
"I remember one game [Pistons guard Chauncey Billups] put up like 28 points,
10 rebounds and nine assists. He was one assist away from a triple-double,
and ecstatic. Then LB walks up to him and says, 'You don't have a clue how to
play point guard for me, do you?' [Billups] just bowed his head like a lost
puppy.
"我記得有一場比賽槍蜥拿下28分,10籃板, 9助攻,差一助攻就大三元的好成績。而
布朗爺卻走到他身邊對他說: 你不知道該怎麼為我打控衛,對吧?槍蜥只能低著頭像
個迷失的小狗。
"Then there's the time he calls us into a huddle like there's some emergency
or something during the 2004 Finals against the Lakers. We're here thinking
it's something drastic. And then he says, 'You know … I love you guys.' We
all cracked up laughing and were relaxed the rest of the series.
"然後就是他在2004對湖人的冠軍戰中要我們圍個圈, 好像有什麼緊急的事情似的。
我們都以為有什麼大事。結果他說『你們了解,我愛你們。』我們都笑開了,在接下
來的系列戰都很放鬆。
"LB just knew how to touch us. Affect us. You don't teach that, man. You
either have that relationship with the players or you don't. We respect Flip,
but he doesn't have that. Curry does. And he will."
" 布朗爺知道如何讓我們感動。影響我們。這是不能教的。你不是能和球員有這種關
係就是不能。我們尊敬老桑,但他和我們沒有這種關係。Curry有。而他也能。"
"And guess what, he can flat-out coach," one Pistons player told me during
the Eastern Conference finals. "He knows what he's doing. He commands the
respect of the players not only because he knows what he's doing, but also
because he's not scared to get in anyone's face."
一位球員在東區冠軍中時和Smith談到Curry "因為他知道他在做什麼,也因為他不怕
跟任何人直截了當的說話,他贏得了球員的尊重。"
