http://es.pn/195T33N Bill Simmons寫Tracy McGrady 裡面有些部分小弟認為寫得很好尤其是訪問Jeff Van Gundy跟Roc Rivers兩位曾直接帶領他的教練論數據McGrady的數字絕對是名人堂等級的但美式運動常常強調隊上的最佳球員應該同時要擔任領導者 McGrady從來不是天生的領導者他也不像Dwight一樣不是天生的領導者卻想當老大 McGrady在休士頓的頭三年Jeff Van Gundy是球隊的老大 Daryl Morey開除Van Gundy後雇用了新的教練Rick Adelman Adelman上任時希望McGrady能當隊上老大 McGrady卻連試都不想試因為這樣很難做他自己那22連勝時誰是隊上老大勒? "Probably Chuck Hayes" Daryl said 再節錄一段 "Your best player has to set the tone, without question," Van Gundy explains. "If he doesn't do that, then it has to be the head coach. But it's better if the player has it. Tracy was never a leader, but he was a helluva basketball player. If you coached him or coached against him, you would have a much different view. McGrady made people better — he was a great, great passer. Wasn't a great shooter, but he was a great scorer, could guard, pass, was smart, rebounded. He could do everything. I mean, even Bryant came out and said some nice things … it's not like Kobe Bryant goes out and blows smoke up people's ass." Van Gundy希望大家別過度使用季後賽是否成功來評斷一個球員的成就最好的例子是2007的Kevin Garnett(32勝)跟2008的Kevin Garnett(82勝包括季後賽) 基本上是同一個球員由此可見成功跟失敗之間的差別是很小的 "Easy to coach," Van Gundy gushes about McGrady. "Smart as hell. Not the greatest practice player of course. He understood he had to give X amount of level in practice to avoid confrontation with the coach, and that's what he did. But he was totally unselfish in the way he played the game. TOTALLY unselfish. I was there every night. Was I looking forward to coaching him in the second game of a back-to-back against a bad team? No, not gonna happen. But if you put him against a great team? He always showed up. Look at his playoff numbers versus his regular-season numbers. How many guys had better playoff numbers? Seriously, how many?" 再來是Doc的話 Rivers realizes now how difficult everything was for McGrady, especially when it became more and more clear that Hill was never coming back. "Tracy wasn't a leader at all," Doc says, "and unfortunately for him, he had to be. He was too young and suddenly it's like, 'This is your franchise.' That's a lot to ask. And we were always in a holding pattern because of Grant. We never knew when he was coming back." 我們花了近10年的時間在說Kobe是不是對隊友太嚴厲了,是不是太常責罵他的隊友,Kobe的超強好勝心是不是有時候反而成為他的絆腳石時,McGrady則是個完全不同的球員,他的隊友可以跟他玩在一起,但隊友們不會為了他而上戰場,他的隊友們不會有"我不能讓這個人失望 "的感覺建議大家可以看全文或有T-Mac迷能翻議以上 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 36.231.132.178
