Brotherly meeting a Rush 兄弟一起拉希 Their backyard games in Kansas City, Mo., were competitive, but also one-sided. 在堪薩斯城的後園的競爭雖然是充滿競爭力的但也是一面倒的. Kareem Rush was almost five years older than Brandon Rush, and he did what most big brothers do: He showed no mercy in manhandling him in their one-on-one matchups. 大拉希比小拉希大五歲, 而他跟每個哥哥一樣, 一天到晚在一對一的單挑中電暴他弟弟 The dynamic changed three years ago. 但三年前發生了改變. Brandon, then in college, visited Kareem in Los Angeles. They played again. 讀了大學的小拉希去洛杉磯找大拉希, 兩個人在那邊又比了一次. Brandon didn't just beat him for the first time, he beat Kareem in back-to-back games. 小拉希不只宰了他哥哥一場, 他還連續兩場宰了大拉希. "I was talking big-time stuff to him," Brandon recalled. "He took it pretty good. After the two games I won, he came back and beat me the rest of the day. I guess it got to my head pretty quick." "我跟他說要當成大比賽來打" 小拉希說 "不過他也適應的很快, 我連續贏他兩場以後, 他就回覆了而且在接下來的比賽中一直電我. 這讓我的印象特別深刻" Brandon, 23, hopes to beat his older brother again tonight when his Indiana Pacers take on Kareem's Philadelphia 76ers at Conseco Fieldhouse. 小拉希, 23 歲, 希望趁著這次 76 人在溜馬主場的比賽.再擊敗一次他哥哥. "It's exciting," Kareem, 28, told the Philadelphia Daily News this week. "I haven't played against my brother ever, not competitively. My whole family is going to be there. It's going to be a moment." "很刺激捏" 大拉希, 28 歲　, 在這個禮拜跟費城日報的記者說 . "我從來沒有在這麼有競爭力的比賽中對過我弟弟, 我整個家庭都會來看, 這一定是個重要的時刻." Don't be surprised if they share a quick grin. They're both perimeter players, and likely would be matched against each other: Kareem trying to knock down a 3-pointer in his brother's face, Brandon trying to take big brother off the dribble. 如果看到他們防守時相視奸笑也不用太驚訝, 因為他們都是替補球員, 而且他們打的位置都差不多. 可以想像大拉希在小拉希面前努力的投進一顆三分球, 或小拉希把大拉希手中的球抄掉. Both players are part of their respective team's second unit. 兩個球員都是球隊中重要的替補. "It's going to be fun guarding him," Brandon said. "I'm not going to do any trash talking." "守他一定很有趣." 小拉希說 " 不過我不打算跟他講什麼垃圾話" "I was looking up to him before he got to the NBA," Brandon said. "That was my inspiration to play basketball, watching him do it on the court." "在他進NBA前我一直看著他的背影長大" 小拉希說 "那是我打籃球的靈感,看著他場上的一舉一動" Brandon, who made his first NBA start Wednesday, is averaging 6.1 points and 2.3 rebounds in 20.3 minutes a game. Kareem, who played with the Pacers last season, is averaging 4.8 points in about 10 minutes a game with the 76ers. Kareem appeared in 71 games with the Pacers last season. 小拉希, 在禮拜三的時候首次在 NBA 先發, 在平均 20 分鐘的上場時間可以得到 6.1 分和　2.3 籃板. 大拉希, 去年也在溜馬打過, 現在在76人有平均10分鐘的上場時間和4.8分的得分, 不過去年在溜馬的時候他總共打了71場比賽. Brandon and Kareem are both in the NBA, but neither claims to be the best player in their household. That honor goes to eldest brother JaRon, who played at UCLA. Alcohol problems derailed his career. 大小拉希都在 NBA, 不過他們家族沒人當他們是家族中最棒的球員. 他們最大的哥哥捷龍拉希才是最棒的,　他在　UCLA 打球, 不過酒精問題毀了他的生涯. "I would have to say it would have been JaRon if he would have kept his head on straight," Brandon said. "He was real athletic, he could shoot the ball, he could put it on the floor and he was strong." "我會說捷龍才是最棒的, 如果他能繼續努力" 小拉希說 " 他才是真正的運動員, 他可以射籃, 他有漂亮的運球, 而且他很強壯" Brandon has a combination of his bothers' games. 小拉希有著他兩個哥哥的優點. He can shoot from the perimeter like Kareem and attack off the dribble like JaRon. 他可以像大拉希一樣的射籃, 也可以像大大拉希一樣往籃下打. "He's . . . a lot more athletic than I am," Kareem told the Daily News. "JaRon was just raw athletic. I've been a shooter all my life. Brandon's going to have a chance to be a good player in the league. He defends well, he shoots, dribbles, is more all-around." "他...比我還像個真正的運動員" 大拉希告訴記者說. "大大拉希是個沒機會被開發的運動員, 我一生都會是個射手. 而小拉希卻有機會成為聯盟中頂尖的球員. 他的防守很好, 他可以射籃, 他可以切入, 他非常的全能."
