What's Lin's Sin? He Did What Any Of Us Would Have Done
By Jason Keidel
林書豪犯了什麼錯?他只是做了我們每個人都會做的事情
With all the static of
myriad sidebars surrounding Jeremy Lin – from his storybook eruption in New
York to sparking a global, Gangham Style craze we coined Linsanity to his
solemn departure to Houston – it's hard to separate the man from the myth.
—從他如童話般的在這大紐約崛起,閃耀成國 際巨星,如“江南Style”的“林來瘋“到
他莊嚴的離開紐約,去了休士頓——這一切都難以讓人把他和許多八卦迷思分的清楚。
But one thing that seems nearly universal in Knicks fans is the bubbling
contempt suddenly shown the young man since he left our city for far greener
pastures in Texas . And it's hard to understand why. From talk show hosts to
fans who just a few months ago regarded Lin like he was King Farouk, everyone
east of the Hudson morphed from Jeremy Lin devotees to player haters in a New
York minute. What's Lin's sin? He did what any of us have done or would do:
sign with the highest-paying employer .
可是自從林去了那年輕力壯的火箭後,唯一
讓尼克粉絲們最近幾乎同聲共氣的是他們突然對小林那幸災樂禍的鄙視態度,這真的很難
令人了解。從節目主播到球迷,這些幾個月前還把小林看成神聖如法羅王的鐵粉,所有哈
德森河以東的林來瘋粉絲在瞬間就變身成了林黑!小林到底犯了什麼錯??他只是做了我
們每個人都會做的一件事:跟薪水出的最高的球隊簽了約!(注:小林只是跟唯一給他合
約的球隊簽了約)
The rigid, rigorous rancor toward Lin is baffling, if not childish.
Evidently, going 19-6 isn't enough. Lin and the Rockets must perform
inversely . Not only are New Yorkers giddy over their team's feverish start,
they take equal solace in the Rockets' 13-12 record and are downright spastic
over Jeremy Lin's struggle (11.6 PPG, 6 APG, 3.9 RPG) to adjust to a new team
and town. It seems the only team Lin can beat is the one he made relevant for
a few surreal weeks last winter.
這些嚴厲如恩怨情仇般的指責實在是莫名其妙的幼稚。很明顯的,尼克目前的19-6優勢還
是不夠,這些尼克粉希望小林跟火箭最好是打到谷底。尼克粉不但是被開季以來的連勝熱
暈了頭,他們以同樣的熱情在火箭的13-12普普成績中尋找安慰,而且根本就對小林在新
球 隊的挫折如神經似的滿足。
Lin gave Knicks fans a reason to cheer for the first time since the 20th
Century, when Y2K was the digital apocalypse. Lin was like a meteor shower on
a frigid, endless, winter night, something to celebrate during the darkest
time of the year. He made consecutive covers of Sports Illustrated – no
doubt aided by the vacuum in the sports calendar between football and
baseball – and has handled his new-found fame with an elegance we could only
hope to summon.
林書豪上賽季給了尼克粉絲這個世紀最大的欣喜和榮耀!林來瘋如同寒冬黑夜中突現的一
顆流星,給了紐約客值得歡慶的原因。在橄欖球和棒球的季節輪迴中,林以他無與倫比的
出眾成績和他謙虛善良的氣質,多次成為“運動周刊”的封面頭條!
If you read the recent feature on him in SI, you'd see he knows that
Linsanity is larger than his life, an organism of its ow n, that he's more an
avatar俄of ethnic and cultural crossroads and political jousting than the
progenitor of an authentic global movement. And yet he still travels the
world, to his ancestral hubs in China and Taiwan, endures the dog-and-pony
act with nobility while entire nations tug on his tattered cape. Surely his
influence on global interest in basketball warrants some coin, even if the
contract isn't commensurate to his hardwood prowess.
如果你有看最近“運動周刊”關於林的報導,你會看到,林書豪他明白“林來瘋”的意義
是超過他自己生命的本身,有著如“阿凡達”一般超越種族,國籍,政治和文化的國際影
響力。但是他不顧一切紛擾,走遍大陸,台灣,接受兩岸三地媒體的鎂光燈,民眾的包圍
。他在國際籃界的影響力是不可忽視的,就算是他球場上的表現還沒有達到合約的價值。
Carmelo Anthony breached an implicit agreement, if not an entire brotherhood
by panning a fellow player's contract . He called Lin's three-year, $25
million deal “ridiculous.” And he's right. I mean, what well-run team would
give a player who hasn't won anything countless millions? Besides the Knicks,
of course, who gave Carmelo $100 million when he hasn't even sniffed an NBA
Finals…
甜瓜違反了運動員的職業道德,當他鄙視小林合約的時候,他失去了籃球隊員的兄弟情。
他說了:小林的三年兩千五百萬合約是荒謬的!是呀!甜瓜說的不錯,我也覺得,除了尼
克,什麼好球隊會給一個還沒贏過任何冠軍的球員幾千萬?只有尼克,才會給甜瓜這樣一
位還沒聞過總冠軍的球員一億美金的合約吧!(注:甜瓜合約是三年六千萬,不是一億)
You or your parents or their parents have heard stories about Jim Brown, who
is about as big physically and metaphysically as Paul Bunyan. When asked why
he never spiked the pigskin after a touchdown or choreographed some silly,
celebratory contortion, Brown said he wanted to act like he'd been there
before.
你們的爸媽,祖父母,都聽過吉米。布朗的故事嗎?他是身材技術都跟大巨人保羅一樣的
史上最偉大的美國橄欖球員。曾有人問他:為什麼你在跑到終點得分的時候從來不作出一
些興奮瘋狂丟球,翻跟斗,等等的動作呢?他說:我想表現出平常心,這是對我來說容易
做的到事情。
And that's the problem with Knicks fans. You're so unaccustomed
to being decent, much less dominant, that you don't know how to handle a
little prosperity . And a little it is. Long before the Knicks dashed out to
this start, we were hearing comparisons to Red Holzman's juggernaut. All the
anecdotes about Clyde and Pearl and Dollar Bill were belched over the
airwaves as if the 2012 Knicks were already in the NBA Finals, up 3-1, and
ready to drop the guillotine on the Lakers , just like the old days.
這就是尼克粉的態度問題。
你們太不習慣怎樣做個文明人,忘記了謙虛,一點點好成績就沖昏了頭。
當這個好賽季之前,我們不是還被跟里德。霍爾茲曼比較成會面性的球隊嗎?怎麼突然間
,打了個嗝,尼克就要進入季后賽,就像從前那樣要把湖人打的落花流水了。。(這一段
邀請懂球帝幫忙翻,因為我不認識那些老球員,Clyde Frazier and Pearl Monroe,Bill
Bradley,...等等)
All this hyperbole heaped upon a team that hasn't won since the Nixon
administration, hasn't won a playoff series in over a decade, and has won ONE
playoff game in ten years. Can the Knicks win a round before we crown them?
所有這些誇張的渲染,可惜咱們尼克隊自從尼克森時代1973到現在都還沒贏過總冠軍,就
連十年內都沒進入過冠軍賽,十年內只有贏過“一次”季后賽!在我們給尼克戴上冠冕前
,到底能不能贏這一回合呀?
And what does any of this have to do with Jeremy
Lin? The worst part about the five-borough bile chucked at the Houston Rocket
is that no one is better versed in the phenomenon than New Yorkers. If
anything, New Yorkers should show a little gratitude toward the Harvard Man.
What, you prefer Latrell Sprewell, who goes Hulk Hogan on head coaches?
這些的一切一切,到底跟林書豪有神馬關係?
糟糕的是,沒有人比紐約客更能體驗到本季這兩場被火箭打爆的林來瘋重現之經典。
再怎麼說,紐約客都應該感謝我們這位哈佛小子的風度。
否則,難道你還想看到當年的Latrell Sprewell掐著教練脖子打,被罰禁賽68場的情景
嗎?(注:作者大概是想到前天尼克球員教練一起驅逐出場的狀況,呵呵)
Heck, I detest the Knicks and even I was spellbound by Linsanity. A crossover
here, a dribble-drive there, a perfect pass to a slashing forward. How sweet
it must be for Lin to at least have lit-up the Knicks during his lone
performance at MSG this year .
哎呀,我早就厭惡了尼克,迷上了林來瘋。小林的交叉運球,完美的傳球,犀利的進攻。
他優美的球技,為尼克點亮了2012年麥迪遜廣場花園的傳奇。
And we can even take a provincial pride in the young man who, rather than say
he's a child of the world, a dot in the united colors of Benneton, he's
proudest of being an American at a time when loathing our land has become
nauseatingly chic .
我們甚至可以驕傲的說,這個年輕人,並沒有天天掛在嘴邊,說他是“世界之子”"國際
之光“等等,他居然在這個愛國者已經被鄙視的時代,勇敢的承認他最自傲的是身為美國
人。(拜託讀者不要敏感,小林最自傲的是:他是上帝的孩子,他其實最怕被問國籍問題
,這位作者是紐約美國人,當然也要搶林啦!)
Word of advice to Knicks fans. Don't worry about Jeremy Lin. He has moved on,
rather gracefully. It's time for you to do the same, lest you be reminded of
how hard it will be to win without Lin.
給你們尼克粉一個忠告。別再為小林糾結,他已經優雅的向前走了。你們也往前看吧,免
得要常被提醒,沒有小林,勝利將是多麼的困難。
