--是1月20日的新闻，做个纪录-- Erik Spoelstra on Goran Dragic: 'When we lose, he doesn't sleep' –Goran Dragic stepping up for Heat, because someone has to. by Ira Winderman | January 20, 2017 原文：https://goo.gl/0wpIVM Goran Dragic never wanted to be Dwyane Wade. He just wanted to play alongside. But times, as Miami Heat fans realize all too well, change quickly in the NBA. And what you want and what you get often can take you to extremes. That is where Dragic has resided this season, cast into a leadership role on and off the court, with Wade's free-agent defection to the Chicago Bulls and yet another season played in the absence of Chris Bosh. What it has afforded the Heat is a measure of the veteran guard that otherwise might not have surfaced if there wasn't something like this 13-30 season, a season that increasingly calls for games such as Thursday night's 99-95 victory over the Dallas Mavericks, when Dragic scored 32 points on 11-of-15 shooting. "This game means so much to Goran Dragic," coach Erik Spoelstra said. "When we lose, he doesn't sleep. He takes it hard like a coach would. I get text messages from him about things that he thought he could have done better or differently, hours after the game. I just text him back, 'Go to bed. Spend time with your family. We'll see you tomorrow.' That's what you love about Goran." Spo ：「这场比赛（小牛）对Goran Dragic意义重大，当我们输球时他睡 不着觉，他看待比赛认真的像是教练。在比赛结束後过几小时，我收到他 传来的简讯，他认为他应该可以做得更好或是采取不同的方式，我就回给 他：『好好睡觉休息，花些时间与家人在一起，我们明天见。』而这就是 为什麽你会喜欢Goran。」 His had been a largely quiet, secondary role after he was acquired in the middle of the 2014-15 season from the Phoenix Suns. Wade would lead on the court and in the locker room. Bosh would offer the relief points until sidelined the blood clots, the very type of late-game mid-range jump shots that Dragic must now offer. Now there is no choice but to be leading man, to try to make sense of this season spent largely at the bottom of the standings. "It was borne out of need," Spoelstra said, "and he accepted it and admitted that at first, this isn't necessarily his comfort zone previously in his career, but this team needed him to be more vocal, to take more ownership and responsibility, and hold guys accountable. They love it when they see his fire and see emotion for winning." Spo ：「这是出於球队需要，他接受了这角色，起初他承认，这不一定是 在他之前职业生涯的舒适区，但这支球队需要他更多的出声，承担更多的 主导与责任，以及团结队友们让他们对自身工作任务负责，他们喜欢看见 他在场上火热的表现并看见他为胜利所传达出的情感。」 Even with the losing record and swirl of trade rumors, it is a role the 30-year-old Slovenian has embraced. "If I'm honest," he said, "I feel even better here than in Phoenix. I like all my teammates. I feel like I'm in the right spot. My head is clear and I'm working hard to be a better player, a better teammate. Hopefully I can contribute even more, be a big help." Dragic：「如果诚实说的话，我感觉在这里比在凤凰城更好，我喜欢所有 队友，感觉自己在正确的位置上，我的思绪清晰，以及努力训练成为一个 更好的球员，一个更好的队友。希望我能够贡献更多，成为更大的帮助。」 The external view when there hasn't even been the ability to string together three consecutive victories -- something the Heat will attempt to do for the first time Saturday against the Milwaukee Bucks at AmericanAirlines Arena -- is why bother? For Dragic, that answer is as simple as those text messages: Why not? "Sure, sometimes it's hard after the game," he said. "But this is my job. This is who I am." So he asks more of himself. "I feel like I never had this kind of communication with a coach before," he said, "and it makes my job easier, because he tells me what he sees on the floor. I tell him what I see. And with that, we can correct mistakes. I feel like everybody should do that." Dragic：「我感觉好像之前从未跟一名教练有过这类似的沟通，这让我的 工作变得更简单，因为他告诉我他在场上看到的，我告诉他我看到的，然 後，我们可以修正错误，我觉得所有人都应该这麽做。」 Part of the message has been to step up when needed, take the mid-range shot instead of giving in to playmaking instincts. 还有部分讯息是：当需要时请跳出来，采取中距离跳投而不是顺应本能的 当组织者。 "I don't know if anybody's noticed," Spoelstra said, "but he's worked so much on his game, first, which is most important for us. "His game has evolved so much now, not just the 3-ball, but his ability to put the ball on the floor and hit mid-range pull-ups. Those are the kind of shots that keep a defense honest. Oftentimes in close, fourth-quarter games, they're the only shots you're going to get. But he's really improved that part of his game this year." Dragic said he is determined not to quit on this season, not to quit on himself. Dragic说他下定决心不放弃这赛季，不放弃他自己。 "Usually that mid-range shot, I was always doing step-backs. Not anymore. Now it's like a rhythm shot," he said. Dragic：「通常那些中距离跳投，我总是做後撤步，现在不一样了，现在 像是节奏投篮。」 "I feel like the older you get, the more you need to work on your game and try to survive with those young fellas." Dragic：「我觉得当年纪大了，你必需为自己的比赛投入更多的工作，然 後想办法在这群年轻人中生存下去。」 ======= Dragic thriving, hoping to stay in Miami amid trade rumors by Barry Jackson | January 20, 2017 原文：https://goo.gl/F7Y6PP “I feel really good here,” said Dragic, in the second year of a five-year, $85 million contract. “I feel like I’m in the right spot. The city is awesome, the fans are great, the organization is the top organization in the league. My family, they’re feeling amazing, they love the city. Of course I want to stay here.” Gogi与家人都喜欢很迈阿密，也认为热火球团是联盟最好的球团，他想要 留在这里。 Dragic, 30, is optimistic about a quick Heat turnaround because of confidence in president Pat Riley, general manager Andy Elisburg and owner Micky Arison. “The history talks about what Pat, Andy, Micky, what those guys are able to do in one summer,” he said. “I have complete faith in the front office. They’re going to do an amazing job. They did before, now and in the future.” Gogi信任莱利、安迪与老板，信任管理层。 Dragic appreciates that Spoelstra visited him in Slovenia last summer, when he was training for the national team. “Even when I was in the offseason he was texting me how I’m doing, how is my family doing and he came to visit me,” he said. “That means a lot to me and to my family because you feel wanted.” Gogi很感激Spo 在休赛季关心他与他的家人，以及来斯洛维尼亚。 And Spoelstra appreciates the growth in several areas of his game. “He has improved and I don’t know if anyone has noticed,” Spoelstra said. “He’s worked so much on his game. Defensively he is really taking pride in defending pick and rolls and challenging shots, rebounding the ball better, making hustle plays, effort plays. “Offensively, this is the best he has ever shot the ball from deep, but I think just as important, or if not more important, he is able to really take advantage of that mid-range, which is so vital in close games. This game means so much to Goran Dragic. When we lose, he doesn’t sleep.” Spo 说不知道是否有人注意到，这赛季Gogi改善了自己的比赛 And what about those late-night texts to his coach? 传简讯给教练的那些（输球）的夜晚怎麽样？ “Sometimes it’s hard after the game,” he said. “But this is who I am. Turn on the game and see what I did wrong, how I can improve.” Dragic：「有时候赛後很艰难，但这就是我，打开比赛录像然後看我做错 了哪些事，该如何改进。」 --
