The bubble life alone is enough to put any player on edge.
單單是園區裡的生活就足夠讓任何球員處在極限邊緣。
Whether it’s the restrictive environment, the time away from family and
friends, or the extended length of this stay that began in early June and won
’t end until mid-October for the last two teams standing, there are all
sorts of reasons for frustrations to rise. And that’s before you account for
the intensity and stress that comes with the actual games.
不論是嚴格管制的環境、與家人以及朋友分離,又或者是對最後兩隊從六月直到十月
中的的停滯時間──那裏有著各種理由讓挫折感堆積。而這還只是你在面對比賽前所聚積
的焦灼和壓力。
As psychological challenges go, it’s the mental health equivalent of
guarding LeBron James.
這些心理上的挑戰,就像是要面對面防守LBJ一樣。
But when the Boston Celtics’ Marcus Smart was at the center of that raucous
locker room scene after Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals, when the
shouting from both Smart and others could be heard all throughout the hallway
and we later learned from The Athletic’s Shams Charania that a clash with
Jaylen Brown had taken place following their second consecutive loss to
Miami, Smart had more on his mind than blown leads and the routine rigors of
the bubble experience. As the 26-year-old Smart discussed with The Athletic
after practice on Monday, he was already “tipping over” emotionally heading
into the game for a very painful and personal reason: The two-year
anniversary of his mother’s passing had taken place the day before.
但是當Marcus Smart處在G2後那銳利的休息室風暴中央、隨著東決對陣熱火的二連敗
──我們後來從Shams Charania那得知一段與Jaylen的爭辯接掌了對話──那些從Smart
以及其他球員之間的咆嘯傳到了走道之中,當下Smart心中除了被大比分翻盤、以及持續
艱難的園區體驗之外,還堆積了更多東西。當這位26歲的後衛與The Athletics在禮拜一
練習後的訪談裡,他表示有更加私人的理由在當時被宣洩而出:他母親的兩周年忌日剛好
是G2的前一天。
Camellia Smart, who died at 63 after losing her battle with bone marrow
cancer, was everything to Marcus and his three brothers (including his older
brother, Todd, who passed away from cancer at the age of 33 in 2004). From
his childhood in Flower Mound, Texas, to his college years at Oklahoma State
and beyond, Smart was shaped and loved by Camellia as she worked so hard to
keep him on the right path. But when the second anniversary of her passing
was followed by yet another crucial playoff loss and all the anguish that
came with it, Smart explained, it was all too much to bear.
(這段我就不贅述)
Smart的母親於63歲時由於骨隨癌逝世﹝他的哥哥Todd33歲時一樣因為癌症過世﹞。
他的母親畢生致力於讓Smart走在正確的道路上,以致當兩周年忌日與關鍵的第二場失利
、還有多方的焦慮交雜在一起,Smart表示那真的無法忍受。
To Smart and the Celtics’ credit, they couldn’t have responded any better
in Game 3 on Saturday (a 117-106 win in which Smart, Kemba Walker, Brown and
Jayson Tatum all had 20-plus points). And now, with Game 4 looming on
Wednesday, he’s hoping their defining Game 2 moment is the kind of thing
that lifts them into the Finals.
由於Smart及其他Celtics成員的努力,他們在G3做到了最佳的回應﹝117-106的勝利
及四位核心球員同時得到了20分以上﹞,現在G4就近在禮拜三,他希望G2後的那些決定性
的時刻能夠把他們帶往總冠軍賽。
訪談正文↓
With the proximity to the anniversary of your Mom’s passing, I had just
wondered how that might have factored in when it comes to your head space…
訪:由於你母親的忌日是如此的靠近,我猜想那是否﹝關於那場爭論﹞在你腦中佔有
一定的要素在裡面。
Yeah, it was tough. It was tough. It was definitely tough. You know, on top
of losing Game 2 — you know, I don’t like to use that as an excuse, but it
does (make a difference).
是阿,真的很難、很難,那﹝忌日﹞絕對是難受的,尤其是在輸掉了G2之後──你要
知道,我不喜歡找藉口,但那的確是因素之一。
I’m coming from the standpoint of understanding, not making excuses.
訪:我是站在理解的角度來做這份報導,不是尋找藉口。
Yeah, exactly. And that’s the thing. And it’s tough because only the people
who are in that locker room really understand and know what everybody is
going through. So like I said, I don’t want to use it as an excuse but it
definitely played a role to a certain extent. It’s definitely an emotional
day. You’re already on an emotional scale where you’re already tipping
over, and then something like (that happens) where you should’ve won for the
second time against a really good team that you allowed to come back and
steal both games from you. It just pushed it over the edge.
是阿,就是那樣。說實在話如果不是站在那間休息室裡的人,是很難真的去理解在我
們身上所發生的事,像我說的,我不想用它﹝忌日﹞來當理由,但那絕對有一定的份量;
那真的是充滿情緒的一天,你已經因為那而充滿了沮喪,然後又第二次被偷走了該有的勝
利,那些﹝情緒﹞直接衝破了極限。
It was just — we were all disappointed. It was just disappointing. We lost
two games that we should have won, and nobody was happy. I probably would
have felt in trouble with the team as a team — like, we would’ve felt in
trouble — if everybody was calm. After a Game 2 loss, up 17, up 14, two
games and we lost it. We’re a great team and we’re playing against a great
team, so we know we can’t have those types of meltdowns. So yeah, we were
all disappointed. And when you’ve got a bunch of brothers who are
disappointed, emotions fly and sometimes you’ve got to yell just to get it
out and move on. It was one of those nights (laughs).
那真的是──我們都非常失望、真的就是失望,我們輸掉了兩場該有的勝利,沒人開
心的啦。我大概身為隊員而為隊伍感到了困境──就是說,如果在輸掉兩場領先17以及14
分的比賽後,每個人都還很冷淡──那我們就真的麻煩了。我們是一支優秀的球隊,而我
們正面對另一支優秀的隊伍,所以我們很清楚不可以有這種崩潰﹝的比賽﹞,所以、對,
我們全都很失望,情緒就這樣蔓延,而有時候你必須將它宣洩出來繼續前進,那﹝G2那晚
﹞就是那樣的日子﹝笑﹞ ←聰明笑,不是我
You used that word ‘electrifying’ (in his group media session to describe
the impact of the moment on the team). It’s not spin — it’s genuine.
訪:你用「電療」來形容那晚的狀況,而不是逆轉──那相當的天才。
Genuine…
天才......
But the idea that you take that sort of a moment as a team and go to a higher
place rather than going the wrong direction speaks well of all you guys,
right?
訪:但你將那個時刻當作隊伍邁向更高的目標、而不是走錯了方向,那種方式很好的
表達了你們這群球員的心態,對吧?
Yeah, and that’s why I said that we’ve grown with this experience. We’ve
grown. We’ve matured. It would have been easy, and would have been
understandable in some ways after that, for us to fall apart.
對,那就是我說我們從成長而得來的經驗,我們成長並變得成熟;我當然可以理解,
﹝在外人看來﹞我們會就因為那樣而分崩離析。
Did you wonder (if that would happen) when you went to bed that night, after
you guys had those conversations back at the hotel? And who all took part in
those talks?
訪:你有預期到那天晚上在飯店會有那場小組聚會嗎?又有哪些成員參與了?
Yeah, you know we just got together and made sure that we were on the same
page. We told each other that we love each other.
阿,你知道,我們就是聚集一起確認我們還在同一條路上,我們告訴彼此依然愛著對
方。
It was me, Jaylen, Jayson, Kemba, and (coach) Brad Stevens. You know, we just
got together and made sure that what happened in the locker room was really
in the locker room. It’s unfortunate that it got out, but it happened. Like
I said, we’re a family. Families fight. I don’t expect anything less. I
expect that if a guy feels some way, then say it. I’d rather you say it than
hold it in and let it come out too late. Like I said, it was electrifying for
us to have it. It was something that probably we should have had a long time
ago, but because we kind of just skated through we didn’t have to. And we
knew eventually it was going to come up to bite us with the way we’d been
playing, so it was something that needed to happen. Like I said, I love this
group of guys. We all love each other. We all know that when any of us get
emotional, there’s no malice and no bad intentions behind it. I think that’
s kind of where and how we were all able to have the higher (outcome) because
we all knew that it was coming from a great place.
那晚有我、Jaylen、Jayson、Kemba還有Stevens。你知道,我們就是聚在一起並確保
休息室發生的事,就讓它留在休息室內,不幸是的它還是變成了新聞,但那就是發生了。
就像我說的,我們是一家人,家人之間總有爭執,對此我並不意外,如果有人感到了了怎
樣的情緒,那就將它表達出來,我寧願你將它表達出來而不是在情況已經太遲的時候才說
;我也講了,這對我們而言就是一次該有的電療,其實我們應該早就那麼做了,但我們有
點過得太順遂所以沒這麼做,其實我們心裡知道到頭來會因為自己比賽的方式而被反咬一
口,所以總是要讓它發生的。像我說的,我熱愛這群人,我們也熱愛著彼此,我們都知道
當有人變得情緒化時,裡面其實是沒有惡意還是目的在的。我想那就是為甚麼我們都能有
著更好的成果,因為我們都知道那來自於崇高的立意。
Do you have any — regret is the wrong word — but we all examine the way we
handle situations…
訪:你是否有任何......說後悔不太對......但人們後來總是會去思考當下是怎麼處
理事情的。
No, I don’t have any regrets. And I don’t have any regrets with how my
teammates handled it either. I think we handled it perfectly. If you can’t
talk, if you can’t yell, if you can’t express how you truly feel with
somebody who’s supposed to have your back, somebody who you’re supposed to
trust, and vice versa, then are you really supposed to be trusting that
person? That’s the type of team we are. We trust each other fully, so for us
to be able to yell at each other and get yelled (at) back — and move on (is
important). And that’s just what it is.
不,我沒有任何的後悔,而我也沒有對隊友們的應對感到不滿,我認為我們處理得很
好,如果你不能說話、吶喊,如果你不能對那些應該支撐你們人們表達出真正的心情,那
些你信任的人、反之也如此的人,那你真的該去相信那人嗎?那就是我們球隊的樣子,我
們完全相信彼此,所以我們可以對彼此怒吼並且被吼回來──然後繼續向前,這是這個樣
子。
I’m not around your squad much, but typically when it gets that hot (in the
locker room) for most teams then the next day we’re writing about how it’s
a wrap.
訪:我跟你們相處的時間不長,但通常其他球隊的休息室情況變得惡劣的時候,我們
都是在寫他們是如何瓦解的。
Exactly. That was big for us to make sure that we didn’t let this flow over,
because it happens. And I’m sure this isn’t going to be our last time
having a discussion, having a debate, or even getting emotionally invested
and releasing that emotion. We’ve heard the cliche’ ‘It’s not about
getting knocked down, it’s about what you do after you get knocked down.’
We were knocked down. A lot of guys had to stand back up, dust ourselves up,
put up our dukes and get ready to fight again.
就是這樣,那就是我們如何不讓﹝輸球﹞就那樣過去的方式,因為那的確發生了,而
我也確定那不會是最後一次討論、發生爭吵,甚至是單純的發洩情緒不滿,我們都聽過那
句:重點不是在你被打倒了,而是你如何在被擊倒後站起來。我們的確被擊敗了,許多人
必須重新站起來,拍掉身上的沙子,取回我們的尊嚴並準備繼續戰鬥下去。
------
心得:其實講的內容我們都知道了,所以翻譯起來沒有甚麼太多想法,而且系列賽還
是輸了,頂多就是小反彈一下子(系列賽總得分更多卻輸球),所以......希望這種歷練是
長久的吧,反正CBS帶隊就是還會有下一次,我們,下一次,再看看。
