Chasing free chalupas for fans costs Varejao Coach, Pacers not too pleased with 3-point attempt in game's final seconds By Brian Windhorst Beacon Journal sportswriter Anderson Varejao was trying to live up to his role as fan favorite; instead he wound up in his coach's doghouse. Varejao試著滿足觀眾的期待，不過卻害得教練失了面子。 As the final seconds ran off in the Cavaliers' 99-88 victory over the India na Pacers on Sunday, Varejao decided to hoist up a 3-point attempt. It was Va rejao's effort to appease the fans, who were vocally hoping for the Cavs to reach 100 points so they could get their free Taco Bell chalupa. 週日騎士以99-88擊敗溜馬的最後時間裡，大V嘗試投個三分球。這是他取悅觀眾的舉動，當時他們正鼓譟著希望騎士衝到100分，讓大家有免費的墨西哥Taco餅吃。 The shot was flat and so was the response. 投籃落空，期待也落空了。 While NBA fans desire for free 99-cent merchandise -- be it tacos, little rubber balls or T-shirts -- seems unbridled, the same could not be said for the Pacers' enthusiasm following Varejao's shot. Several, including head coach Rick Carlisle, shot Varejao demonstrative stares afterward. 當球迷很想要一些小福利——例如Taco餅、小橡膠球或T-shirt的時候，是非常狂熱而不理性的，同樣的溜馬隊當然沒有道理去回應騎士球迷的期待。包括卡萊爾教練以及一些球員，賽後意味深長的瞪著Varejao。 Varejao, who was just 1-of-7 shooting on the day, drew the ire of his teamma tes as well. The protocol in those situations is to dribble the ball out and then shake hands. The Cavs are trying to avoid a reputation as poor sports. 今天投7中1的大V此舉也讓隊友不太高興。在這種時刻的正常行為應該是運球讓時間跑完然後握手，騎士隊現在要避免受到缺乏運動精神的指控。。 ``We're not that type of team,'' LeBron James said. ``He knows not to do that again; it is as simple as that. You never want to show off, and he definitely made a mistake and he learned from it.'' 「我們不是那種糟糕球隊」James說「Varejao下次不會再犯了，就這樣。你不會想要炫耀勝利，而他也從中得到教訓了」。 Following the game, Cavs coach Mike Brown met with Varejao to let him know pleasing the fans isn't always the top priority. Then he issued an apology to the Pacers for the incident. 比賽後Brown教練跟大V談話，告訴他取悅觀眾並不一定永遠是最重要的。然後他向溜馬隊道歉。 ``We're up and we already know we're going to win,'' Brown said. ``In a situ ation like that... we don't need to shoot that basketball. We apologize for it if that makes them feel better. We'll live and learn and we'll move on.'' 「我們知道即將獲勝所以太high了」教練說「在這種情況……我們不應該投那球。我們道歉並希望能讓他們感到好受一些。我們會記取教訓繼續向前」。 ============================================================================== 其實我是擔心這篇會被媒體拿去亂組才翻譯好存證的XD 騎士隊史上並不是第一次發生類似的事,上一次甚至打起群架,對手是小牛. 那個Taco餅真的那麼好吃嗎? -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.228.42.225
