原文出處： http://0rz.net/801e3 -- Suns confident in chemistry 太陽對於球隊良好的化學作用深具信心 Doug Haller The Arizona Republic Apr. 9, 2006 12:00 AM 作者：道格‧霍勒出處：亞利桑那共和報發布時間：'06年4月9日 AM12:00 -- Brian Grant was recently asked about his minutes in Phoenix, and how it felt to sit on the bench, watching his teammates run and gun. BG最近被問及關於他在鳳凰城的上場時間，以及坐在板凳席看著隊友在場上盡情地跑轟有什麼感覺。 "And I said, 'You know what? I'm all right with it,' " Grant said. "I always want to play and I always stay ready, but I'm OK with it because I'm so enjoying my time with these guys." BG回說"然後我說'你知道什麼？我覺得一切都很好啊。'我總是希望可以上場打球而且我總是做好隨時可以上場的準備，雖然上場時間不多，但我覺得沒問題，因為我很享受和這群人一起打球的時光。" The Suns are at a crossroads, trying to pull themselves from the worst funk of the season, defensive and energy lapses contributing to eight losses in 16 games. But Grant, 34, suggests all isn't lost. Seven games, starting tonight at Seattle, remain. A push in the playoffs is possible. 太陽正站在十字路口，試圖結束掉最近這段因為缺乏防守和活力而導致16戰各8勝8敗，本季最低潮的時期。但34歲的BG認為這並不代表球隊毀了，自今晚至西雅圖踢館的比賽算起，球季還有7場比賽才結束，只要經過適度的調整，球隊在季後賽仍大有可為。 Most important, the Suns have great chemistry. 而最重要的是，太陽上上下下擁有絕佳的化學作用。 "These guys who have been here and nowhere else, they don't know what it's like to play on a team where you don't like a couple people and there's constant tension," Grant said. "That's just like an extra little nag in the back of your neck." BG說"現在在這裡或曾經在這裡打球的人，他們不知道待在一支隊上有些你不喜歡的人存在的球隊打球那種揮之不去的精神壓力，那就像有人總是在你背後絮絮叨叨，不停地批評著你。" Grant, in his 12th season, has played in Sacramento, Portland, Miami and Los Angeles. He's been in locker rooms where one player whispers about another. He's seen cliques form, rumors start. 進入職業生涯第12個球季的BG，已經待過沙加緬度國王、波特蘭拓荒者、邁阿密熱火和洛杉磯湖人等球隊，他已經體會過那種球員休息室裡有某位球員竊竊私語談論著另一位球員的是非的感覺，也親眼看過球員間派系的形成和謠言的產生。 But here, "When there's a basketball problem or you start to see tension," Grant said, "it gets worked out quick. Because somebody says, 'Why'd you say that about such-and-such.' They're right here. Let's talk about it." 不過在這支球隊，BG說"當有關於籃球的問題產生或你開始感受到精神壓力，那總是很快就得以解決，因為有人會說'為什麼你不把它說出來大家談一談blah blah blah。'他們總是和你站在同一陣線，願意和你一同分享、承擔，同甘共苦。" That approach starts with Steve Nash, who shares captain duties with Grant and Shawn Marion. 那方法是由和BG、Matrix共同擔任隊長職務的S.Nash所發起。 "He's the MVP," Grant said, "and other than seeing him play, I wouldn't know. Every other team that I've seen, the best player, they let you know it. . . . But with him, he's so subtle and laid-back and humble, and when it's coming from the top, it trickles down. It's like, if you're being an (expletive) and Steve Nash isn't, it's really going to make you look like an (expletive)." BG說"Nash是上一季聯盟最有價值球員，而如果沒和他一起打過球，我不會知道他的為人。因為就我看過其他球隊的扛霸子，他們總會讓你感受到趾高氣昂的態度，但Nash不一樣，他是如此的細心、寬容、謙虛，他不會讓人覺得高高在上，而是給人如同涓涓細流的舒服感受。那感覺就像是，連貴為MVP的Nash都如此拼命，你還不加倍努力，相較之下，你看起來會更像個廢渣。" (譯按：這一段我百思不得其解，還望各位能人志士不吝指教。) Told of Grant's comments, Nash wasn't sure how to respond. He just thinks a successful team can't afford to bicker, especially amid adversity. Even now, so late in the season, he views the Suns as a new team. They've been together since October, but so many guys have missed time with injuries. 被告知BG的想法後，Nash不很肯定該怎麼回應。他只是認為一支成功的球隊球員間不該發生口角，尤其正當球隊處在低潮的時候。儘管現在已是季末，他仍將太陽當作一支全新的球隊來看待。他們自從十月起就一起打球，但有相當多球員在這期間曾因傷勢而錯過一些比賽。 "It takes time to learn the characteristics and chemistry needed, especially under duress," Nash said. "But we're getting there. We got a great start because we like each other and we hang out together." Nash說"要了解彼此的特質和要球員間有化學作用產生都需要時間，尤其是在球隊經歷了大換血之後。不過我們成功克服了這個課題，因為我們喜歡彼此也熱愛和對方一起打球，所以我們有了一個好的開始。" Coach Mike D'Antoni recently said two kinds of basketball chemistry exist: floor chemistry and locker room chemistry. The first is essential. The second, a luxury. 教練M.D'Antoni最近表示化學效應有兩種：一種是場上的化學效應，另一種則是在球員休息室內的化學效應。第一種是必要的，而第二種則是可遇不可求。 "Everybody has egos in this business, but you have to be able to put it aside when you get on the court," D'Antoni said. "That's where the chemistry is really important. If you also have it in the locker room, that just makes it really fun to play. That's the ultimate." D'Antoni說"每個人都有他的自我意識，但當你踏上球場那一刻起你就必須擺它擺在一旁。那正是化學作用展現其重要性的地方，而如果球員休息室裡也有化學作用存在，打球將變成一件相當有趣的事，那是我們追尋的終極目標。" Nash goes back to something he's heard and often repeats. And that's when everything ends, players won't remember the night Marion had 30 against the Clippers or the night Boris Diaw slapped a triple-double on the Mavericks. Nash又說回他最常重複聽到的事，那就是當一切都結束時，球員們不會記得在對上快艇那場比賽Matrix獨得30分或打敗小牛的比賽中屌爺寫下大三元的佳績。 What they'll remember is time spent with teammates. The part Grant so much enjoys. 他們將只會記得那BG最最最樂在其中的和隊友一同度過的美妙時光。 "Next year could be it for me. If I could finish up my career doing (this), playing a little vs. playing a lot and being stressed out every day," he said with a pause. "I would take this." 停頓了一會他說"希望明年我也能退居第二線，在職業生涯末段，如果每場比賽只打一小段時間和每場比賽都打個三、四十分鐘並將球隊勝負一肩扛起，我想我會選擇第一種。" -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 222.250.0.208
