新闻出处(必填):https://reurl.cc/d5Zgxg 作者:Sam Amick ------ The bubble life alone is enough to put any player on edge. 单单是园区里的生活就足够让任何球员处在极限边缘。 Whether it’s the restrictive environment, the time away from family and friends, or the extended length of this stay that began in early June and won ’t end until mid-October for the last two teams standing, there are all sorts of reasons for frustrations to rise. And that’s before you account for the intensity and stress that comes with the actual games. 不论是严格管制的环境、与家人以及朋友分离，又或者是对最後两队从六月直到十月 中的的停滞时间──那里有着各种理由让挫折感堆积。而这还只是你在面对比赛前所聚积 的焦灼和压力。 As psychological challenges go, it’s the mental health equivalent of guarding LeBron James. 这些心理上的挑战，就像是要面对面防守LBJ一样。 But when the Boston Celtics’ Marcus Smart was at the center of that raucous locker room scene after Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals, when the shouting from both Smart and others could be heard all throughout the hallway and we later learned from The Athletic’s Shams Charania that a clash with Jaylen Brown had taken place following their second consecutive loss to Miami, Smart had more on his mind than blown leads and the routine rigors of the bubble experience. As the 26-year-old Smart discussed with The Athletic after practice on Monday, he was already “tipping over” emotionally heading into the game for a very painful and personal reason: The two-year anniversary of his mother’s passing had taken place the day before. 但是当Marcus Smart处在G2後那锐利的休息室风暴中央、随着东决对阵热火的二连败 ──我们後来从Shams Charania那得知一段与Jaylen的争辩接掌了对话──那些从Smart 以及其他球员之间的咆啸传到了走道之中，当下Smart心中除了被大比分翻盘、以及持续 艰难的园区体验之外，还堆积了更多东西。当这位26岁的後卫与The Athletics在礼拜一 练习後的访谈里，他表示有更加私人的理由在当时被宣泄而出：他母亲的两周年忌日刚好 是G2的前一天。 Camellia Smart, who died at 63 after losing her battle with bone marrow cancer, was everything to Marcus and his three brothers (including his older brother, Todd, who passed away from cancer at the age of 33 in 2004). From his childhood in Flower Mound, Texas, to his college years at Oklahoma State and beyond, Smart was shaped and loved by Camellia as she worked so hard to keep him on the right path. But when the second anniversary of her passing was followed by yet another crucial playoff loss and all the anguish that came with it, Smart explained, it was all too much to bear. (这段我就不赘述) Smart的母亲於63岁时由於骨随癌逝世﹝他的哥哥Todd33岁时一样因为癌症过世﹞。 他的母亲毕生致力於让Smart走在正确的道路上，以致当两周年忌日与关键的第二场失利 、还有多方的焦虑交杂在一起，Smart表示那真的无法忍受。 To Smart and the Celtics’ credit, they couldn’t have responded any better in Game 3 on Saturday (a 117-106 win in which Smart, Kemba Walker, Brown and Jayson Tatum all had 20-plus points). And now, with Game 4 looming on Wednesday, he’s hoping their defining Game 2 moment is the kind of thing that lifts them into the Finals. 由於Smart及其他Celtics成员的努力，他们在G3做到了最佳的回应﹝117-106的胜利 及四位核心球员同时得到了20分以上﹞，现在G4就近在礼拜三，他希望G2後的那些决定性 的时刻能够把他们带往总冠军赛。 访谈正文↓ With the proximity to the anniversary of your Mom’s passing, I had just wondered how that might have factored in when it comes to your head space… 访：由於你母亲的忌日是如此的靠近，我猜想那是否﹝关於那场争论﹞在你脑中占有 一定的要素在里面。 Yeah, it was tough. It was tough. It was definitely tough. You know, on top of losing Game 2 — you know, I don’t like to use that as an excuse, but it does (make a difference). 是阿，真的很难、很难，那﹝忌日﹞绝对是难受的，尤其是在输掉了G2之後──你要 知道，我不喜欢找藉口，但那的确是因素之一。 I’m coming from the standpoint of understanding, not making excuses. 访：我是站在理解的角度来做这份报导，不是寻找藉口。 Yeah, exactly. And that’s the thing. And it’s tough because only the people who are in that locker room really understand and know what everybody is going through. So like I said, I don’t want to use it as an excuse but it definitely played a role to a certain extent. It’s definitely an emotional day. You’re already on an emotional scale where you’re already tipping over, and then something like (that happens) where you should’ve won for the second time against a really good team that you allowed to come back and steal both games from you. It just pushed it over the edge. 是阿，就是那样。说实在话如果不是站在那间休息室里的人，是很难真的去理解在我 们身上所发生的事，像我说的，我不想用它﹝忌日﹞来当理由，但那绝对有一定的份量； 那真的是充满情绪的一天，你已经因为那而充满了沮丧，然後又第二次被偷走了该有的胜 利，那些﹝情绪﹞直接冲破了极限。 It was just — we were all disappointed. It was just disappointing. We lost two games that we should have won, and nobody was happy. I probably would have felt in trouble with the team as a team — like, we would’ve felt in trouble — if everybody was calm. After a Game 2 loss, up 17, up 14, two games and we lost it. We’re a great team and we’re playing against a great team, so we know we can’t have those types of meltdowns. So yeah, we were all disappointed. And when you’ve got a bunch of brothers who are disappointed, emotions fly and sometimes you’ve got to yell just to get it out and move on. It was one of those nights (laughs). 那真的是──我们都非常失望、真的就是失望，我们输掉了两场该有的胜利，没人开 心的啦。我大概身为队员而为队伍感到了困境──就是说，如果在输掉两场领先17以及14 分的比赛後，每个人都还很冷淡──那我们就真的麻烦了。我们是一支优秀的球队，而我 们正面对另一支优秀的队伍，所以我们很清楚不可以有这种崩溃﹝的比赛﹞，所以、对， 我们全都很失望，情绪就这样蔓延，而有时候你必须将它宣泄出来继续前进，那﹝G2那晚 ﹞就是那样的日子﹝笑﹞ ←聪明笑，不是我 You used that word ‘electrifying’ (in his group media session to describe the impact of the moment on the team). It’s not spin — it’s genuine. 访：你用「电疗」来形容那晚的状况，而不是逆转──那相当的天才。 Genuine… 天才...... But the idea that you take that sort of a moment as a team and go to a higher place rather than going the wrong direction speaks well of all you guys, right? 访：但你将那个时刻当作队伍迈向更高的目标、而不是走错了方向，那种方式很好的 表达了你们这群球员的心态，对吧？ Yeah, and that’s why I said that we’ve grown with this experience. We’ve grown. We’ve matured. It would have been easy, and would have been understandable in some ways after that, for us to fall apart. 对，那就是我说我们从成长而得来的经验，我们成长并变得成熟；我当然可以理解， ﹝在外人看来﹞我们会就因为那样而分崩离析。 Did you wonder (if that would happen) when you went to bed that night, after you guys had those conversations back at the hotel? And who all took part in those talks? 访：你有预期到那天晚上在饭店会有那场小组聚会吗？又有哪些成员参与了？ Yeah, you know we just got together and made sure that we were on the same page. We told each other that we love each other. 阿，你知道，我们就是聚集一起确认我们还在同一条路上，我们告诉彼此依然爱着对 方。 It was me, Jaylen, Jayson, Kemba, and (coach) Brad Stevens. You know, we just got together and made sure that what happened in the locker room was really in the locker room. It’s unfortunate that it got out, but it happened. Like I said, we’re a family. Families fight. I don’t expect anything less. I expect that if a guy feels some way, then say it. I’d rather you say it than hold it in and let it come out too late. Like I said, it was electrifying for us to have it. It was something that probably we should have had a long time ago, but because we kind of just skated through we didn’t have to. And we knew eventually it was going to come up to bite us with the way we’d been playing, so it was something that needed to happen. Like I said, I love this group of guys. We all love each other. We all know that when any of us get emotional, there’s no malice and no bad intentions behind it. I think that’ s kind of where and how we were all able to have the higher (outcome) because we all knew that it was coming from a great place. 那晚有我、Jaylen、Jayson、Kemba还有Stevens。你知道，我们就是聚在一起并确保 休息室发生的事，就让它留在休息室内，不幸是的它还是变成了新闻，但那就是发生了。 就像我说的，我们是一家人，家人之间总有争执，对此我并不意外，如果有人感到了了怎 样的情绪，那就将它表达出来，我宁愿你将它表达出来而不是在情况已经太迟的时候才说 ；我也讲了，这对我们而言就是一次该有的电疗，其实我们应该早就那麽做了，但我们有 点过得太顺遂所以没这麽做，其实我们心里知道到头来会因为自己比赛的方式而被反咬一 口，所以总是要让它发生的。像我说的，我热爱这群人，我们也热爱着彼此，我们都知道 当有人变得情绪化时，里面其实是没有恶意还是目的在的。我想那就是为甚麽我们都能有 着更好的成果，因为我们都知道那来自於崇高的立意。 Do you have any — regret is the wrong word — but we all examine the way we handle situations… 访：你是否有任何......说後悔不太对......但人们後来总是会去思考当下是怎麽处 理事情的。 No, I don’t have any regrets. And I don’t have any regrets with how my teammates handled it either. I think we handled it perfectly. If you can’t talk, if you can’t yell, if you can’t express how you truly feel with somebody who’s supposed to have your back, somebody who you’re supposed to trust, and vice versa, then are you really supposed to be trusting that person? That’s the type of team we are. We trust each other fully, so for us to be able to yell at each other and get yelled (at) back — and move on (is important). And that’s just what it is. 不，我没有任何的後悔，而我也没有对队友们的应对感到不满，我认为我们处理得很 好，如果你不能说话、呐喊，如果你不能对那些应该支撑你们人们表达出真正的心情，那 些你信任的人、反之也如此的人，那你真的该去相信那人吗？那就是我们球队的样子，我 们完全相信彼此，所以我们可以对彼此怒吼并且被吼回来──然後继续向前，这是这个样 子。 I’m not around your squad much, but typically when it gets that hot (in the locker room) for most teams then the next day we’re writing about how it’s a wrap. 访：我跟你们相处的时间不长，但通常其他球队的休息室情况变得恶劣的时候，我们 都是在写他们是如何瓦解的。 Exactly. That was big for us to make sure that we didn’t let this flow over, because it happens. And I’m sure this isn’t going to be our last time having a discussion, having a debate, or even getting emotionally invested and releasing that emotion. We’ve heard the cliche’ ‘It’s not about getting knocked down, it’s about what you do after you get knocked down.’ We were knocked down. A lot of guys had to stand back up, dust ourselves up, put up our dukes and get ready to fight again. 就是这样，那就是我们如何不让﹝输球﹞就那样过去的方式，因为那的确发生了，而 我也确定那不会是最後一次讨论、发生争吵，甚至是单纯的发泄情绪不满，我们都听过那 句：重点不是在你被打倒了，而是你如何在被击倒後站起来。我们的确被击败了，许多人 必须重新站起来，拍掉身上的沙子，取回我们的尊严并准备继续战斗下去。 ------ 心得：其实讲的内容我们都知道了，所以翻译起来没有甚麽太多想法，而且系列赛还 是输了，顶多就是小反弹一下子(系列赛总得分更多却输球)，所以......希望这种历练是 长久的吧，反正CBS带队就是还会有下一次，我们，下一次，再看看。 --
