※ 引述《LAKERsBryant (Take a break ,ok?)》之銘言： http://lakersblog.latimes.com/lakersblog/2012/02/magic-johnson-on-lakers-.html These are uncomfortable days for the Lakers, who can't avoid drama or the glare of the spotlight yet again. 這是湖人隊史上另一次的不安動盪，這隻球隊總是避免不了鎂光燈 Magic Johnson said in a conference call Wednesday that Lakers executive Jim Buss, not General Manager Mitch Kupchak, was making the important decisions for the franchise. 魔術說現在Jim Buss在管理球隊和做重要決定，而不是GM Mitch Kupchak "It's not Mitch's situation anymore. Mitch isn't running the team. Jim Buss is running the team," Johnson said. "Mitch has to follow the direction of Jim Buss and what he wants. I wouldn't say Mitch is the problem. He's going to do his job." 魔術:現在已經不是Mitch在操盤，他只是聽命於小Buss Mitch Kupchak has been in the Lakers' front office for 25 years but Buss has gradually been handed more power over the years by his father, team owner Jerry Buss. 從老Jerry Buss時代開始，Mitch已經在湖人待了25年，而政權逐漸轉交到小Jim Buss手上 Johnson said Jim Buss should meet personally with Kobe Bryant because the 14-time All-Star "just wants to be informed as a leader and future Hall of Famer and a guy who has brought five championships to the Lakers." 魔術說Jim Buss應該和Kobe碰個面，因為Kobe只是想以"球隊領導人+未來名人堂+五次冠軍成員身分"搞清楚現在的狀況 "He wants more communication, probably like he did when [former Coach] Phil Jackson was there and he worked well with Mitch. I don't think Kobe feels he has that type of relationship or the communication has been there with Jim. What probably has to happen is they need to sit Kobe down and sit Jim down. Dr. [Jerry] Buss was the master at taking you to lunch or taking you to dinner and going over what he was thinking and what he wanted to do with the team. Jerry West was good at that as well. Kobe, Mitch and Jim just have to get on the same page and things will be OK." Kobe想要和球隊溝通更多，像以前Phil Jackson在任時，他和Mitch溝通良好魔術說Kobe現在沒辦法像那樣子和Jim溝通，老Jerry Buss應該要帶他們一起出去吃飯，他是這方面的專家，就像以前Jerry West做的也是類似的事情只要大家對於球隊有共識就沒事了 When asked if he would meet with Jim Buss, Bryant responded Wednesday, "Um, perhaps." Kobe被問到他是否會和Jim Buss見面，回答是:"呃應該會吧" Johnson praised Bryant for airing his frustrations about the front office's unclear plans with four-time All-Star Pau Gasol. "I'm proud of Kobe for being a good teammate and being a good leader and voicing his opinion," said Johnson, who sold his 4.5% ownership stake in the Lakers two years ago but remains on the team payroll as a vice president. On Wednesday, Bryant clarified why he challenged the front office. 魔術認為Kobe對於球隊模糊的態度表達不滿是值得讚賞的， "我對Kobe表現出領導人和好隊友的態度感到驕傲" 魔術兩年前賣出湖人4.5%的股權但仍是球隊副總裁 "Nobody else is going to say it, man," Bryant said after the Lakers' shoot-around in Dallas. "I'm the only one with [courage] big enough to say it, so I said it." "沒有其他人會講出來的" Kobe在美國時間週三，面對小牛的練習前，說明他為何要隊球隊放話 "只有我有足夠的勇氣說出來，所以我說出來了" Bryant also discussed the brief, informal discussion among Lakers players after their victory Monday against Portland. Kobe也討論到湖人隊員在美國時間週一擊敗拓荒者後，球員招開了簡單、非正式會議的內容 "I wouldn't have called it a team meeting," he said. "After the game, guys talked, D-Fish got up and talked, said a couple of words, and that was about it. Kobe說"我不會稱之為球隊會議，只是球賽後大家聚在一起討論， Fisher起來講幾句，然後就差不多了" "It was just us understanding that we reached the midway point of the year and we really have to lock in on what we have to do and stay focused on ourselves and not let any outside distractions, be it trade talk, be it criticism or whatever the case may be, interfere with what we have to do as a group, as a cohesive unit." "只是和大家確認現在球季進行一半，我們目標一致而且專注於球賽本身而不要讓外面的風雨影響球隊，比如說交易傳言或是各種批評之類的任何狀況，我們的目標應該是成為具有向心力的團體" Derek Fisher, Bryant said, was "the one that calls the meetings and does most of the emotional speaking." Kobe說Fisher是"召集會議且發表感性發言的那個人" Bryant also weighed in on the Lakers' first trip back to Dallas since getting swept here in four games in the Western Conference semifinals last May. The teams play each other Wednesday at American Airlines Center. Kobe對於去年季後賽後首次重返小牛的客場之戰發表看法，去年西區準決賽湖人被掃地出門 One reporter asked if Dallas dinged the Lakers' mystique last season. "It's tough to put a dent in mystique with all of them [championship] banners," Bryant said. "They had a great year last year. They kicked our butts, that's for darn sure. But we're going to be back at it. We're middle of the pack right now but we have aspirations of being there again in June and seeing this team in the playoffs." "對於充滿冠軍錦旗的球隊來說，被中止霸業是很難過的事。" "他們去年打得很棒，毫無疑問狠狠踢了我們的屁股一頓，但我們會重新振作的，球隊現在是中段班，但我們有志向六月去挑戰這支球隊" Can the Lakers do it with their current roster? 湖人能夠用現有陣容做到嗎? "Yeah, we can, but we've got to be damn near perfect," Bryant said. Kobe:"可以的，但我們必須打出接近完美的水準" Johnson thought otherwise, saying the team needed to make "one or two trades" before the March 15 deadline. 魔術認為球隊需要在三月15日交易大限做出一到兩筆交易 If the Lakers don't pull off a trade and Jim Buss doesn't communicate with the organization, Johnson remains pessimistic about the Lakers' championship hopes. 若湖人不進行任何交易而小Buss的溝通問題不解決，魔術對於湖人的冠軍希望感到悲觀 "They can compete for the Western Conference championship," said Johnson, who predicted the Miami Heat would win the NBA title. "But if they don't [make a trade], I don't think they'll compete. I think Oklahoma City is better. San Antonio is also playing better than the Lakers right now." 預測熱火會拿到冠軍的魔術強森說:"也許湖人可以衝擊西區冠軍，但不做交易的話，球隊競爭力是不夠的，雷霆是支更好的球隊，馬刺現在也打得比湖人好。" Bryant talked further about Lakers Coach Mike Brown, who has been questioned by some players about his substitution patterns and lack of rest between games. Kobe談到教練Mike Brown，這位教練被質疑輪替制度有問題而且球賽間的休息不夠 "It's a constant learning process for him, coming to a group that we know how to play so well together and so forth," Bryant said. "We have certain things that are habitual for us, whether it's pre-game routines and other stuff. They seem shocking to him: 'How the hell did you win championships doing this stuff?' But it works for us. It's just a matter of him kind of getting used to it. He's doing it." Kobe:"他還在學習中，剛來到一隻知道如何運作良好的球隊" "我們有自己的習慣，比如說球賽前的儀式之類的，這些東西一開使嚇到他說：你們到底怎麼做這些事情贏到冠軍的，但這對我們來說很有用，對教練來說只是習不習慣的問題，而他也正在學習" Bryant declined to elaborate. Kobe拒絕（對以上內容）做詳細解釋 Brown said he was pleased that the Lakers talked after Monday's game. Brown說他對於湖人球員禮拜一的聚會感到高興 "I think it's great," he said. "If they have them in the future, to me I think that's a big positive, but I also do not need to know what they talked about in there." "我認為那很好，就算以後要繼續維持這種小球員會議，對我來說是個大加分，而我也不需要去知道他們討論的內容: The state of the Lakers represented one of many topics Johnson discussed. He reflected on the upcoming 20th anniversary of the 1992 NBA All-Star game, significant for reasons beyond winning the All-Star MVP after scoring 25 points in the West's 153-113 victory. Before that season began, Johnson announced his retirement because he had HIV, but he returned to the All-Star game after fans voted him in as a starter. 湖人現況與魔術強森的關連；下周舉辦的是1992年後的第20個全明星賽，當年魔術拿了25分還有MVP，西區153-113擊敗東區那個球季開始前魔術宣布感染HIV並且退休，只打了明星賽因為他被票選為先發 ESPN's hour-long documentary, "The Announcement," airs March 11 and focuses on Johnson's sobering announcement nearly 20 years ago that he'd retire from the Lakers after contracting HIV. 20年前的三月11號魔術強森發表了一場感性的發言，那是他宣布退休的日子 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 165.91.29.226 ※ 編輯: theowing 來自: 165.91.29.226 (02/23 07:43)
