Pat Riley準備好邁向下一個冠軍 Miami Heat team president Pat Riley wants his players to enjoy the title, but he also wants them to get back to doing the things that led them to winning the championship in the first place. 邁阿密熱火總裁Pat Riley希望他的球員去享受封王的喜悅，但也要他們回過頭勿忘贏得總冠軍的初衷，努力持之以恆。 http://tinyurl.com/73nhhha (圖片) 西裝筆挺、髮型一絲不苟的Pat Riley Rise up shepherd, rise up Your flock has roamed far from the hills The stars have faded, the sky is still The angels are shouting “Glory Hallelujah” Pat Riley is always scouring books and music and life for inspirations, but there is nowhere he finds more joy than in the pit in front of the stage at a Bruce Springsteen concert. Riley calls Springsteen his “pastoral, rock-n-roll spiritual advisor,” so the Miami Heat’s Boss has trailed The Boss all over the globe, attending dozens of his concerts and spending time with Springsteen backstage, just two old immortals crossing paths during their life-long searches for meaning and truth. 熱火的油頭總裁Pat Riley ，總喜歡將自己沉浸在音樂和書籍之中，在他看來，這樣的生活方式會讓他的生命更充實。對他來說，沒有比坐在Bruce Springsteen（美國搖滾歌手，綽號老大）音樂會的前排座椅上更讓他感到快樂，迴蕩的音樂似乎會給他很多關於籃球靈感。他說，Springsteen的音樂就像是鄉野搖滾精神顧問，所以在他全球各地的音樂會中，總是伴隨Riley的身影，這一對「老先覺」，就這樣隔著觀眾席前排階梯，台上台下，追尋著共同生命的意義和真理。 Riley quotes Springsteen in notes he gives his players and employees, so someone knew to play Springsteen’s “The Rising” for him in the swaying arena as soon as his Heat had vanquished the Celtics, and Riley raised an arm and shook a fist like he does in that pit. 他不光自己聽。每當Riley聽到Springsteen經典片段的時候，都會記下來發給熱火將士。就曾在熱火季後賽終於擊敗塞爾提克的片刻當下，有人就識時務為他播放了Springsteen的曲子「The Rising（崛起）」，當時Riley握拳揮臂，有如自己是個指揮家。 On Sunday, as he prepared for yet another team party, Riley was busy having Springsteen’s “Rocky Ground” put over a video montage of this Heat season, and damn if the tears didn’t sneak up on him for the first time. 但在邁阿密熱火時隔六年再度奪冠，Riley準備監製球隊賽季回顧的錄像時，再度拿出了 Springsteen的音樂「Rocky Ground（岩墟）」，旋律穿插在球隊起起伏伏的每一個瞬間中，配合得恰到好處，卻能使第一次觀賞的人淚流滿面。 “I didn’t cry during the game or celebration, not like I’ve done in the past,” Riley says. “It would always be when I saw my wife or my children or a player or a player’s wife or someone I knew cared as much as I did. This time, though, I was just numb. Numb from happiness. I almost lost it a little bit in the locker room when I was with LeBron [James] because of what he has been through. But listening to On Rocky Ground from this new Wrecking Ball album, it is what we have been through, our journey, and it made me emotional. ” 「在球隊比賽和慶祝的時候，我真是一點眼淚都沒有流，這和我過去太不像了，」Riley 說，「過去，每當看到我的妻子、孩子，或者球員，以及他們的妻兒時，我總會觸景生情想到很多而被觸動。這一次，不知道為什麼，我似乎有那麼一點點麻木，是那種因為過於高興導致的麻木。直到我在更衣室看到Lebron，和他相擁一起後，我才有那麼些激動。而當我聽到Rocky Ground並且看著球隊的賽季片段時，一下就控制不了自己的情緒了。」 His team covered so much rocky ground before finally becoming the wrecking ball. Riley remained mostly silent during the turbulence as the media fired his young coach again and again and traded his players and delighted in questioning his blueprint with unrelenting and unholy noise. Us-against-the-world is a tired athletic cliche, but there has rarely ever been a team that embodied it the way this one did, the critics and doubters not imaginary or invented for motivation but rather loud and lapping against the locker-room doors in wave after unrelenting wave for two straight seasons. 之所以激動，是因為熱火在登上總冠軍獎台前，經歷了很多坎坷。過去長達兩年的時間裡，雖然球迷及媒體對熱火的砲轟從未間斷，Riley仍是保持沉默：一次次要他炒掉年輕的Spoelstra、交易掉低潮的球員、質疑他的建隊藍圖，這些通通擾人不怠的惡毒噪音。反對意見總是陳腔濫調接踵而來，很少有隊伍能親身體驗他們歷經過的艱辛路程，批評和懷疑的聲浪，不斷地迴盪在他們的更衣室有兩年之久。 “There were two flash points the media jumped on,” Riley says. “The Decision and The Celebration. They just hung on to that for a couple of years. If it wasn’t that, it would have been something else. They would have fabricated something else. Jealousy and resentment are one thing, but when you envy what someone does, you have to look at yourself as a person. When someone else does something good, you envy them because that's what you’d like to have. There was a lot of that in all the negativity. I told Spo early on, ‘Get used to this. Jump on and get used to this if you are going to be a coach in the modern generation.’ 「其實，媒體現在腦海裡閃現的關鍵詞我都能想到，不就是'The Decision'、' The Celebration '什麼的嘛，」Riley鎮定自若地說，「未來很長時間裡，這兩個詞都還會很熱門，當然，也有可能被其他什麼代替。通常，當其他人做了驚天之舉後，你總是會很嫉妒，因為你曾幻想過自己也可以完成這樣的事情。可這其中的負面情緒實在太多。我很早之前就對Spoelstra說過，『要習慣眼前的一切，不要理睬，慢慢適應這一切，除非你不想成為最新世代的NBA教練。』」 1/4 待續 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 123.192.214.90
