The "suffering" is over (痛苦結束了) Staff and Wire Reports Tuesday, October 30, 2007 In what is described as a last-minute deal that only makes sense in the convoluted world of NBA salary-cap specifics, the Spurs traded guard Beno Udrih and cash to the Timberwolves for a protected 2008 second-round draft pick that never will be delivered. 在受限於"薪資上限"NBA的世界中，馬刺隊在交易的最後一刻將Beno Udrih交易到灰狼隊，並附帶一些現金，為了一個受保護的2008年第二輪順位，不過這隻籤永遠不會有結果了。 The Wolves then waived Udrih and the Spurs got some salary-cap relief. 灰狼隊隨即揮棄Udrih，馬刺也得到一些薪資上限的緩衝。 Almost instantly, the suffering of Beno Udrih in a Spurs uniform has ended, just as suddenly, he's also now a player without a team. Sources tell SpursReport that Udrih may opt to leave the NBA to play in Europe as soon as the broken finger that kept him out of training camp heals. Udrih穿著馬刺制服受苦的日子結束了，幾乎可以說是一瞬間。他現在是個沒有球隊的球員，有某些消息告訴SpursReport(應該是馬刺相關的媒體)說Udrih可能會選擇離開NBA，然後在他手指的傷好了之後，儘快回到歐洲打球。 "The non-American (especially European players) in the NBA are discriminated against and have to pay dearly for every mistake we make," Udrih said during an interview in August. "非美籍球員(尤其是歐洲球員)在NBA中多半遭到歧視，而且你必須為你犯的每個錯誤付出巨大代價。" Udrih在八月的一次訪問說。 Beno was candid and admitted that his time at the end of the bench in San Antonio had gotten old. Udrih很坦率地表示，承認他在馬刺板凳上所消磨的光陰實在太長了。 "I knew I was in excellent form, but couldn't do anything because I wasn't given a chance. You have no idea how much that influences one's psyche. After good performances you are forced to seat on the bench and support you teammates, tell them to get over mistakes and comfort them that it'll be better next time. At the same time you know you could do a better job than them if you would only get another chance - a chance that never came." "我知道我的狀況絕佳，但我什麼都不能做，因為我根本沒有機會，你不會知道這對一個球員的心理會造成多大的衝擊。就在你有了一些好表現後，你被迫只能坐在板凳當啦啦隊，然後告訴他們要泰然面對錯誤，下一次你可以表現得更好。在這時候你知道你絕對可以表現得比他們出色---只要你有機會，但這個機會永遠不會出現。" "This year I really suffered mentally," said Udrih. "After all that I experienced while following the games from the bench somebody in Slovenia had the audacity to write an article titled Beno reaches his second champions title without breaking a sweat. This writer doesn't have the faintest idea that I've attended all the training sessions that are even more strenuous for the bench players. After the training is finished and the starting 5 and their backups leave, the rest of us that are waiting for an opportunity have to do another full hour of hard work in the training facility. In you head you are full of doubt and keep wandering why you're not playing, you are sweating rivers and then you read a title like that. "今年我真的是受夠了，心理上" Udrih說道，"後來幾場球賽我都在板凳上度過，馬刺拿到冠軍之後，斯洛維尼亞有個人厚顏無恥地寫了篇文章，文章的標題是'Udrih不流一滴汗就拿到了NBA第二個冠軍' 這個作者根本完全不知道我出席了所有的訓練，我所作的份量甚至超過了板凳球員應有的。就在訓練結束後，先發五人和他們的替補球員紛紛離開，剩下的我們只能在訓練中心裡面做著另一小時的苦工，慢慢等待機會。在這時候你的腦中充滿疑問：為甚麼我不能打（意謂被教練選進可上場的人選）我可是練得汗如雨下啊！然後你看到這種文章標題，你的感覺會如何？" Udrih was given enough room to grow, but never quite matured into the player the Spurs had hoped he would become when they drafted him as a 21-year-old point guard, who had waited until he was automatically eligible to play in the league before pursuing his dream. Udrih被給予許多成長的空間，但從來沒辦法蛻變馬刺心目中所期盼的一位控球後衛。 Udrih在能夠真正追逐夢想之前就已經有足夠的年齡可以打NBA了。 The 6-4 native of Slovenia, could have entered the draft early. For years, he was one of the hottest names circulating in the international scouting community. 這個6呎4吋的斯洛維尼亞人應該早點進入NBA選秀的。曾經有好幾年，他的名字在國際球探當中是最響亮的。 "Beno was highly regarded as a junior (under-18) player since he was already starting at senior level," one international NBA scout said. "He was considered the best point guard born in 1982 in Europe and one of the top backcourt prospects in Europe." Udrih從前被認為是一個比較資淺的球員，因為他年紀還不夠大就已經在打更高一級的比賽了。" 某個NBA國際球探如此說道。 "他曾被認為是新生代的歐洲最佳控球後衛，而且是歐洲籃壇最強後場組合的未來。" No longer a teenage phenom, much of Udrih's mystery was gone. Unfortunately for Udrih, mystery is what teams regularly consume on draft night. Boy wonders are often more alluring than known quantities. Udrih不再是個十幾歲的優秀青年球員了，所有關於他的神秘都消失不見。對於Udrih很不幸的是，他發現NBA選秀很多都只是抱著"賭賭運氣"的心態，而Udrih這種實力未知的球員就更是球隊感興趣的對象了。 After trying to trade him several times last season, Udrih was told by the Spurs that he would be given another chance this fall, but then he went down with a broken index finger on his shooting hand and that opportunity evaporated as well. 上個球季有幾次馬刺隊嘗試交易他，但沒有成功。在這之後，Udrih被告訴說馬刺隊將在今年秋天給他另外一次機會，但隨即一個無法接受的事實發生了---他弄傷了右手食指，這個機會也跟著煙消雲散。 After seeing the hustle play of Darius Washington during the summer and pre-season, a majority of Spurs fans polled on this site (75%) said they would rather that the team keep Washington than Udrih. The Spurs agreed both privately and publicly. 就在馬刺球迷看見Darius Washington在暑假的訓練營以及熱身賽的表現後，有75％的球迷上網投票，希望馬刺隊留下他而非Udrih，馬刺隊同意了。 "Above all you must understand that in America basketball is a business where there's no room for sentimentality," Udrih once said. "The spectators demand a show and the owners demand a profit. Two seasons ago they brought Nick Van Exel to the Spurs, a 13 years veteran NBA basketball player. Us the younger players did not get a chance to play since the spectators demanded to see a legend of basketball play who on top was also an American." "經過我所說的這些，你們一定瞭解NBA是個沒有感情的事業了。"Udrih說道，"觀眾們要的是一場表演，球隊老闆們要的是利益，兩年前馬刺簽下Van Exel，一個NBA十三年的老將。我們這些比較年輕的球員就沒有上場機會了，因為觀眾們想看的是---一個籃球界的傳奇人物是個美國人，而不是我這個非美籍球員。" ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 心得: 1.這是一篇有點麻煩的文章@@" 裡面有一些地方我實在看不懂就拿去問我英文很強的姊夫得到的答案是"Many sentences in this article were badly written..." 他還是有跟我解釋意思我盡量在不改動句義的情況下來翻譯~希望不會造成理解的困擾 2.Udrih好可憐T.T 其實我覺得他應該是個還不錯的後衛說 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 218.171.56.219 ※ 編輯: OUCHRUSH 來自: 218.171.56.219 (11/01 10:11)
