This is the one day of the season during which everything begins anew. The Celtics have a clean slate. Their opponent, Brooklyn, is in the same boat. Every goal set by every player and by every team is attainable when Opening Night arrives. It’s no wonder why the day means so much. 沃尔瑟姆消息 -- 开幕战是独一无二的，而且我们即将在TD花园主场迎来赛队创队第 68年的开幕战。 赛季的这一天，一切都将重新开始。赛尔提克又将从零开始，当然这场的对手篮网也 是一样的。 开幕战到来之後，所有球队、所有球员都将朝着他们的目标开始战斗，这也是为什麽 这一天的意义是如此地重大。 “I think everybody’s excited,” Brad Stevens said on Tuesday with an audible spike of enthusiasm. “There’s 30 teams that are excited to get started and anxious to play and to play well.” Playing in the first game of the season is always different than the following 81. There always seems to be a different atmosphere in the building for Game 1. Think about it. Celtics fans have been starving for meaningful basketball for more than six months. The Celtics themselves have been dying for just as long to bounce back after a disappointing 2013-14 season. "我想大家都非常地兴奋。"总仔Brad Stevens礼拜二受访时语气也相当亢奋。 "这里的30支球队都非常兴奋而已迫不及待要上场大显身手了。" 在球季的第一场球总是跟剩下的81场不一样，整个场馆似乎因为开幕战充斥着不一样的 气氛。 想一想，赛队粉丝们渴望看他们打球等了超过六个月了，同样的时间里赛队的球员们 也渴望从令人失望的 2013-14赛季之後触底反弹上来。 Both groups got a basketball tease during exhibition play, but as Evan Turner says, those games don’t compare to the real thing. “The intensity is really kicked up, or boosted up,” Turner said while discussing Wednesday’s opener. “Sometimes those preseason successes aren’t going to be as easy to come by as a regular season situation.” Marcus Smart, James Young and Dwight Powell, Boston’s three rookies, should take note of Turner’s comments. What those players are about to experience is a whole different animal. 赛队在两队之前热身赛的交手占了上风，但是就如同Evan Turner说的，那些比赛不代表 什麽。 "比赛的张力会变得更高、甚至高很多。"Turner谈论到了明天开幕战，"有些时候热身赛 的成功不代表在例行赛也会同样顺利。" Smart,Young和Powell可得把这位前辈的话牢记在心，未来他们要面对的赛事会像是一头 猛兽。 Crowds will double. Games will intensify. The microscope will magnify. “It’s definitely tough,” said Kelly Olynyk, who experienced Opening Night as a rookie just a season ago, “but you’re still playing basketball on the highest level on the world stage, which is amazing. “You’ve just got to calm yourself. It’s something you’ve looked forward to your whole life and you’ve just got to take it in stride.” That’s easier said than done, but everyone, including Boston’s rookies, must be sure to enjoy it. You only get so many Opening Nights. 观众会加倍、比赛过程会更紧张、每一个小细节都将被放大检视。 Kelly Olynyk已经在一年前就以菜鸟的身份体验过开幕战了。他说:"这肯定会很辛苦， 但是你还是在全世界最高的篮球殿堂打球，Which is amazing。" "你所要做的是让自己冷静下来。这是你一生都在追求的事情，而你要做的是大步向前 迈进。" 虽然说的比做的容易，但可以确定的是每个人，包括这些新秀们，都会享受这个夜晚。 毕竟开幕之夜一年也就这麽一次。 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 有些地方不太好用原意翻， 我在不影响原意的情况下做了点调整， 希望大家喜欢:) --
