[外絮] Grant Hill對James.Wade等熱火球員的影響
When LeBron James was growing up and Grant Hill played at Duke, James
wasn't a fan.
Grant Hill在杜克大學打球時，LeBron James不是他的球迷。
"No one liked Duke," James said.
「沒有人喜歡杜克。」James說。
But after Hill entered the NBA in 1994 and joined the Detroit Pistons,
it became much cooler in his Akron, Ohio, neighborhood to dig him. And
James went all out.
但是當Hill在1994年進入NBA加入底特律活塞隊後，James整個成為了他的球迷。
"I had a Grant Hill poster on the wall when I was young," Wade said.
I had his jersey, a Piston jersey. I had his poster on the wall."
「在我小的時候，我有他的球鞋，我有他的球員卡，我有他的活塞球衣，我房間的
牆壁上有他的海報。」James說。
Now, for what conceivably could be the final time, James will run into
the guy he once idolized when the Miami Heat face the Phoenix Suns on
Tuesday at AmericanAirlines Arena.
現在，邁阿密熱火將面對星期二來美國航空球場作客的鳳凰城太陽，這有可能是
最後一次James對上他曾經崇拜的球員。
Hill, 39, has given no indication he plans to retire after this season
and has said he wants to play into his 40s. But he is on a one-year deal,
and it will remain to be seen if he can continue to defy all conventional
basketball wisdom as a perimeter player averaging 10.4 points at his age.
39歲的Hill沒有跡象表明這個球季結束後就要退休，而且他說希望他能打到40歲以後。
在他這個年紀目前場均仍然能夠得到10.4分。
"He's done an unbelievable job of what we call finding that fountain
of youth," Heat guard Dwyane Wade said.
「他做了一個令人難以置信的事情，就是我們所說的發現青春之泉。」
熱火隊的Dwyane Wade說。
And, yes, Wade also was a big fan of the forward when growing up.
是的，Wade小時候也是Hill的大粉絲。
"I had a Grant Hill poster on the wall when I was young," Wade said.
"He made Fila cool back in the day."
「在我小的時候我房間的牆壁上有Grant Hill的海報，以前他讓Fila看起來很
酷。」Wade說。
Hill wore Fila shoes in the 1990s, which were quite hip due to their
futuristic lines. Reminiscing about that and other tales surrounding
Hill was on the minds of several Heat players after practice Monday.
Hill在90年代時期是穿Fila的球鞋。在星期一的練習過後，幾個熱火隊的球員
回憶起Hill的故事。
James and Wade are hardly the only Miami players who grew up admiring
Hill, who helped Duke to national titles in 1991 and 1992 and was a
perennial All-Star his first six NBA seasons before ankle problems
nearly ended his career.
James和Wade不是熱火隊唯一在成長時期中敬佩Hill，這個在1991年和1992年幫助
杜克大學拿下全國冠軍的球員。受到差點斷送職業生涯的腳踝傷勢之前，Hill在
NBA生涯開始的前6個球季都參加過全明星賽。
"He's the greatest," forward Shane Battier said. "He's my hero. When I
grow up, I want to be Grant Hill. And that's been the case for the 20
years I've known him."
「他是最偉大的，他是我的英雄。在我小的時候，我想成為Grant Hill。
而這也是這20年來我所知道的他。」Shane Battier說。
Battier got to know Hill in the mid-1990s when he growing up in suburban
Detroit and was a Pistons ball boy. Following in Hill's footsteps,
Battier went to Duke and won a national title of his own in 2001.
Battier開始知道Hill這個球員是在90年代中期的時候，當時他住在底特律的郊區，
也是活塞隊的球僮。後來他也追隨Hill的腳步，加入杜克大學，並且在2001年贏得
了全國冠軍。
"He would be one of the greatest players of this recent generation,
no question," Battier said of if Hill hadn't gotten hurt. "People forget
what he did. When he was doing it, he was triple-double every night.
He was doing things LeBron did basically before LeBron did it."
「如果Hill沒受傷，毫無疑問，他將是近代最偉大的球員之一。人們忘記他做了
什麼，當他這麼做的時候，他每天晚上都大三元，在LeBron做這些事之前，他都
在做LeBron基本上做的。」Battier說。
Hill's statistics with the Pistons from 1994-2000 look very LeBron-like.
He had seasons in which he averaged as many as 25.8 points, 9.8 rebounds
and 7.3 assists.
1994到2000年之間，Hill在活塞隊的數據很"LeBron"。這些球季中，他場均最多能達到
25.8分，9.8個籃板和7.3次助攻。
（99-00球季：25.8分，95-96球季：9.8個籃板，96-97球季：7.3次助攻）
"Once he got to the NBA, he was that point forward like Scottie Pippen,"
James said. "That point forward who could go out there and not only score,
but rebound and pass... A lot of people don't know how athletic he was,
what type of scorer he was, especially when he was with Detroit."
「Hill加入NBA時，他曾經期望像Scottie Pippen，不只是能夠得分，還能夠搶
籃板和傳球。很多人不知道他是如何敏捷活耀的，他是什麼樣類型的得分手，
特別是當他在底特律活塞的時候。」James說。
After signing as a free agent with Orlando in 2000, injuries derailed Hill.
He played in just 47 games in his first three seasons with the Magic.
在2000年成為自由球員和奧蘭多魔術簽約後，Hill受傷了。他在魔術隊的前三個
球季只打了47場比賽。
Hill eventually got healthy, and signed with Phoenix as a free agent
in 2007. Since the start of the 2008-09 season, Hill, whose Suns play
Wednesday at Orlando, has missed just six games.
Hill最終回復了健康，在2007年成為自由球員和鳳凰城太陽簽約。從08-09球季開
始，到這個星期三作客奧蘭多的比賽之前，這段時間Hill只有6場比賽沒上場過。
（其中兩場還是今年縮水球季的關係，兩次三天連戰的第二場比賽都和Nash休息）
Injuries and age have taken away much of Hill's explosiveness, and now he
gets by a lot on his smarts. James and Wade, who both entered the NBA in
2003, never did get a chance to face the vintage Hill.
受傷和年齡都帶走Hill的爆發力，但是現在他得到了很多智慧。James和Wade，
他們都是在2003年進入NBA的，沒有機會面對最佳狀態的Hill。
"I remember playing Grant once he got back from injury," Wade said of early
in his NBA career. "He wasn't the same Grant, but he was getting back to
form. And he made a move and I wound up blocking it. When he came down the
court, he told me, 'A couple of years ago, I would have dunked it on you.'
And I was thinking to myself he was right, he would have."
「在我NBA生涯早期的球季，我記得有一次和受傷後復出的Grant比賽，一個不一樣
的Grant，但是他找他自己的方式回來了。他做了一個上而我蓋了火鍋，當他下場
後他跟我說：『幾年前的話，我會在你面前灌籃。』我自己知道Hill說的沒錯，他
會這麼做。」Wade說。
There is one Heat player, though, who had a chance to go against Hill in his
prime. When forward Juwan Howard was at Michigan, his Wolverines played Duke
four times, including losing in the 1992 NCAA title game.
有一個熱火球員，以前有對抗過全盛時期的Hill。Juwan Howard在密西根大學的
時候，他以密西根州本地人的身份和杜克大學比賽過四次，包括在1992年輸掉的
NCAA總冠軍賽。
Two decades later, there's a television documentary out on the Blue Devils'
back-to-back national titles, of which Hill serves as one of the executive
producers. And Hill and Howard, 39, are remarkably still playing, with Hill
the NBA's second-oldest player and Howard, who plays sparingly, the third.
20年後，有一個關於藍魔鬼隊（杜克大學的籃球隊隊名）蟬聯全國冠軍的電視
紀錄片，Hill正是其中一位執行製片人。Hill和Howard都39歲了，Hill是目前
NBA全聯盟年紀第二大的球員，Howard則是年紀第三大的球員。
"If someone would have told me, 'You guys would be playing 18 years in the
NBA,' I'd have thought they were crazy,"' Howard said about the two old
rivals and 1994 draftees still going at it.
「如果當時有人跟我說：『你們這些傢伙能在NBA打球打18年。』我還會以為他們
瘋了。」Howard說。
In Duke's resounding 71-51 win over Michigan, Hill had a LeBron-like 18
points, 10 rebounds and five assists. James, at 7, wasn't then a Hill fan.
But that eventually would change.
在杜克大學響亮的以71-51對密西根大學拿下冠軍戰的勝利時，Hill得到很"LeBron"
的數據，18分，10個籃板和5次助攻。 James在7歲的時候不是Hill的球迷，但最終
還是改變了。

在之前#1FQNert6這篇外絮原文中看到這段句子:
Some Heat players may not have played against Grant Hill in his prime,
but they respect him.
雖然一些熱火隊的球員沒有和全盛時期的Grant Hill打過球，但是他們尊敬他。
