Woodson and Anthony’s Relationship Is Critical One
By HARVEY ARATON
Philadelphia
The coach of the Atlantic Division-leading 76ers, Doug Collins,
does not have to worry about pleasing a superstar. Doug Collins
doesn’t have one, which may be good for his immediate job
security but doesn’t necessarily bode well for the long run.
七十六人的教練 Collins 不用煩惱如何去跟手下的超級巨星搞好關係，因為
他手上根本沒有超級巨星（XD）。雖然說長期來看不是好處，但至少對他目
前能否保住這份工作來說可能還不賴。
（按：時代變了你知不知道，現在誰跟你尊師重道）
“I coached Michael Jordan, who was always a coach’s ally,” he
said. “I coached Grant Hill, who was always a coach’s ally. My
experience is that the greatest players I ever had have always
allowed me to coach them.”
Collins 表示：「我執教過 Jordan, 他永遠跟教練站同一陣線，我也執教
過 G.Hill，他也是永遠跟教練站同一邊。我的經驗告訴我，我曾經擁有的偉大
選手他們會都肯讓我去指導他們。」
After one memorable week as the Knicks’ interim coach, Mike
Woodson would agree — even if Woodson “can’t explain” why
Carmelo Anthony had little interest in hustling for Mike D’Antoni
but has exerted himself for Woodson during a winning streak that
reached five games Wednesday with a fiercely contested 82-79 win
over the 76ers.
在經歷了令人難忘的一週之後，尼克的代理教練，麥克武僧或許會同意
Melo 卻在到目前的五連勝期間（包含星期三對76 人的勝利）內對武僧系統全
力以赴。雖然武僧自己也說，他也無法解釋為什麼 Melo 對冷笑話的體系不是很
感興趣。
（老梗：沒問題啊啊啊啊啊啊啊!!!!!）
Isn’t it obvious why? Anthony has had no choice after using his
credibility lifeline to win his war of wills with the now-departed
D’Antoni.
這是不是很明顯地表示在跟賭上自已的信用把冷笑話鬥走之後，Melo 已經沒
有選擇？
It had to become D’Antoni’s fault that Anthony’s debut in New
York, while not lacking in pomp, had precipitated an extraordinary
and unflattering set of circumstances. After Anthony introduced
himself by firing up jumpers as if Madison Square Garden were
Rucker Park, the production of several teammates diminished and
the Knicks failed to win a playoff game. About a third of the way
through this lockout-shortened season, D’Antoni handed Anthony’s
ball to Jeremy Lin.
當初那個大排場的超級巨星降臨紐約時，或許這一切注定是冷笑話的問題了。
Melo 一個跳投當場把 MSG 搞成洛克公園，紐約人high 翻天，但是尼克一些隊員的
數據因此而下降了，他們終究沒有拿下季後賽。在這個縮水球季，冷笑話把責任交給
了啾咪林。
Could Melo admit that any of the Knicks’ maladroitness was his
fault?
Melo 會承認尼克的拙劣表現是他的錯嗎？
Not unless he was ready to be accountable for himself as well as
how much his apparent pouting affected the team.
在他已經準備好要為他自已負責跟發現他不時的噘嘴已經影響了整支球
隊之前，他不會承認的。
His recent statement — “The last three games, my focus was to
have an energy that I haven’t had so far this season” — was
really quite amazing, coming from a player making $18.5 million
this season, or the eighth-highest salary in the N.B.A.
Melo 自已說的「過去三場比賽，我的重點在找回我這季一直以來所缺少的
能量。」 這句話從一個年薪 18.5 M，聯盟前八高薪的球員嘴巴講出來真
是相當驚人。（酸）
It may also have been the most honest thing he has said since
becoming a Knick.
這或許是他加入尼克之後講過的最誠實的一句話。（超酸）
Say this for Woodson: He put Anthony’s dereliction of duty in its
proper context when he noted that the Knicks “probably wouldn’t
be sitting here in this position fighting for the playoffs” if
Anthony had not used D’Antoni to shield himself from the pressure
of the New York stage. And since Woodson was putatively in charge
of the defense when Anthony decided he didn’t have to play any,
the immediate turnaround should not solely be a referendum on D’
Antoni.
告訴你吧武僧：既然你說過「尼克不應該搞到現在居然還在努力掙扎
進季後」這句話，那麼Melo的擺爛同時把不適應冷笑話體係當作保護自已面對
紐約壓力的藉口這鳥事，你也有責任。（當時他是尼克的防守教練）
所以武僧你不可以說我沒參與，眼前的好轉也不應該只是針對冷笑話去留的公投」
（意思是當初連敗搞的塗塗塗時，武僧你也參了一腳）
Anthony wasn’t the first star player to be placated by having his
coach thrown overboard. Much as Collins could romanticize life
with Jordan, His Airness was not above dictating front office
moves in Chicago, and no doubt had some role in Collins getting
his job there, and losing it. At the Garden, even the ever-
perspiring Patrick Ewing staged a work slowdown until Don Nelson
was escorted to the westbound lane of the Lincoln Tunnel.
Melo 不是第一個把教練丟進海裡之後，需要被安撫的明星球員，就像 Collins
當初執練公牛時，Jordan 的意見雖然無法命令制服組, 但無疑對球練的去留有一定
影響力。MSG 歷史中， Ewing 也曾經怠工把 Don Nelson 輾走.
The make-or-break relationship with the superstar is part of the
pro coach’s life, and when a team turns 180 degrees in the wake
of one’s firing, Collins said you can’t help but feel like
Hester Prynne of “Scarlet Letter” fame, only “with a capital L,
for loser.”
跟超級巨星的相處是教練工作的一部份，當把某人火掉，球隊馬上 180 度
大變身， Collins 表示，你不禁會覺得胸口被刺了一個大寫的 L , 代表你是個
Loser.
(譯註： google 來的， Hester Prynne , 是一名的女性，她因犯有通奸罪被充
满着清教徒的社会谴责，并被迫在胸部刺上红字。)
Moving forward, the question beyond why Anthony tuned out D’
Antoni is whether he has enough character to walk that behavioral
tightrope for Woodson in the many fragile moments to come when the
Knicks linger between success and circus.
繼續向前看，在為什麼 Melo 趕走冷笑話之前的問題是他有足夠的特質來處
理跟武僧走鋼索般，易碎的關係嗎？這關係到尼克未來是成功或是只是一場
馬戲表演。
Those who observed Anthony for the seven and a half years that he
was the designated gunslinger in Denver say that he never had to
deal with expectations close to what he signed on for in New York.
However much Coach George Karl had to grit his teeth, the Nuggets
were thrilled to have a promotable star. When they lost in the
first round of the playoffs in all but one of Anthony’s years
there, few considered them to have enough talent in a conference
dominated by the Lakers and Spurs.
回顧 Melo 七年半職業生涯，在丹佛當槍手免費投到爽的他從來沒有
處理過類似在紐約打球這樣（高）的期望。丹佛的 G.Karl 必須咬牙忍耐
因為丹佛因為有了像 Melo 這樣的球星而高興。就算 Melo 在陣中他們還是
幾乎一輪byebye，很少人認為他們有足夠的天份能跟湖人馬刺一拚。
In the Eastern Conference, most big games look like Wednesday
night’s, down and dirty, and for that reason it was the most
impressive victory of Woodson’s five. The Knicks played inspired,
double-teaming defense. They shared the ball.
東區的比賽中，大多數的比賽就像星期三晚上對76 人的一樣激烈，
這也是武僧執教下，五連勝之中最令人印象深刻的一場。尼克打出令人振奮
包夾式的防守，同時他們還互相分享球權。
Anthony didn’t shoot very much or well but his gorgeous touch
pass in the fourth quarter to an encouragingly spry Amar’e
Stoudemire — the Knicks’ best player with 21 points and 9
rebounds — put the Knicks ahead for good. After a 1-for-11 start,
Lin made several fourth-quarter plays to drag the Sixers face-down
in the mud.
Melo 並沒有一直出手但是第四節他華麗的touch pass 給表現最佳的阿罵得分
，幫助球隊取得一些領先。在1-11 開場之後，啾咪出手命中了幾個重要 play
把76 人壓入泥沼。
So hopes are soaring again with Anthony happily moving his feet
and the Knicks now only three games out of first. Collins paid
homage to them by saying they suddenly bear little resemblance to
the team Philly whacked at the Garden two Sundays ago.
當 Melo 快樂地跑位時，尼克的希望又出現了，因為他們只落後
分區龍頭三場。Colllins 對此表示相當尊敬，因為尼克完全不像是二週前
在MSG被費城隊輾過的那支球隊。
“More energy, more tenacity,” he said. “There are teams out
there saying, ‘I don’t want to play that team, they’re loaded.
’ I guarantee you Miami and Chicago sure don’t want to see New
York 7 or 8.”
「更具能量，更加堅韌，其他旁觀的球隊可能會這樣說『我不想跟他們比』
我跟你保證邁阿密或芝加哥也不想在第一輪遇上這支尼克隊」
Collins meant a seventh or eighth playoff seed for the Knicks, who
could conceivably add a sequel to 1999, the last lockout season,
when a dysfunctional Knicks team came together to upset top-seeded
Miami in the first round on the way to the N.B.A. finals.
他想起了 1999 年尼克隊，同樣也是縮水球季的老八傳奇，也是幹掉第一種子
熱火隊。
That is assuming the Knicks, still a game under .500 and in a
dogfight with Milwaukee for the eighth spot in the East, do make
the playoffs. Win and new coach notwithstanding: there are 19
games and possibly a few mood changes to go.
這當然是假設一下，現在的尼克仍然是不到五成勝率，跟公鹿在為了東區
第八拚的你死我活的球隊。還有19 場必須努力 ,也有可能有一些心情上
的變化...
ps. 好難翻，有錯請指正，感謝 m_m
ps2. 酸 Melo 酸很大，酸不用錢 果然是 NY
