原文http://0rz.net/9a1zQ New team member has tools to become All-Star 新队友有机会成为全明星球员 About this much, everyone seems in agreement 每个人都同意进行这笔交易 The Grizzlies' trade -- Shane Battier to the Houston Rockets for No. 8 p ick Rudy Gay and Stromile Swift -- was about giving up the present you d o know for a future that might develop into so much more. 灰熊将Battier交易到休士顿,换来了今年选秀第八顺位的Rudy Gay以及老同学Swift 这笔交易就像是放弃你现有的好球员,换来一个更有潜力,未来发展更好的新秀 In Memphis, this has meant balancing the loss of Citizen Shane with the gain of a potential NBA All-Star in Gay, who played two years at UConn a nd was even talked about as the potential No. 1 pick in this draft. In Houston, fans who were disappointed with the Rockets' long and hard f all last season wonder what they've lost tomorrow -- even as there's no questioning that they received a solid player for today in the five-year veteran swingman that is Battier. 灰熊得到有资质成为全明星的Rudy Gay以平衡失去Battier的损失 Rudy Gay在康大打了两年球,选秀前被视为今年最有潜力的新人 反观火箭,球迷们对於他们上一个失败的球季感到失望 但毫无疑问的,火箭刚得到一个经验丰富的摇摆人,也就是Battier So, in the end, maybe it's just about the timing: the right deal for the right team at the right time. As Rockets All-Star Tracy McGrady said in the aftermath: "I think Rudy's going to be a pretty good player. But wh at we need right now, this season, is Shane Battier." 或许火箭只是想在对的时间做对的事 火箭队的全明星球员Tracy McGrady发表他对於这笔交易的看法 "我认为Rudy Gay会变成一名非常棒的球员,但是我们现在需要的,是Battier" Without a doubt, Gay and Battier bring different things to the court. Ga y, a 6-9, 220-pound forward, enters the NBA with half the college experi ence Battier had and, dare we say, twice the leaping ability. Rudy Gay和Battier明显的是两名风格迥异的球员 Rudy Gay只在大学打了两年球,身高6尺9寸,体重220磅,主打前锋 但Battier大学打满四年而且,但讲夸张一点,Rudy的跳跃力是Battier的两倍 And yet there are similarities, too. Gay's agent, Lance Young of Octagon , also represents NBA Rookie of the Year Chris Paul of the New Orleans/O klahoma City Hornets; Paul also could have won an award for Classiest Ne wcomer to the league. 也有一些相似之处,Rudy的经纪人Lance Young也是Chris Paul的经纪人 而Paul有机会赢得联盟的最佳新人(这里的主辞似乎打错了?应该是讲Rudy Gay才对) "Once I knew Rudy and Chris were friends, I knew Rudy was a good guy," s aid Young. "一但知道Rudy Gay和Chris Paul是好朋友,我就知道Rudy是个很棒的家伙"Young说 Yes, that's agent talk and an agent's opinion is only slightly more bias ed than a mother's. But everything Young says about Gay sounds like an e cho of everything said about Gay during his college career and heading i nto the draft. 那就是他的经纪人所作的评论,而经纪人对自己球员的了解几乎就像球员的老妈一样 而Young之前就不断提到Rudy Gay的好直到选秀 Those who are displeased that the Grizzlies lost their so-called "face o f the franchise" in this trade, should be pleased when they get their fi rst good look at Rudy Carlton Gay Jr. 那些正在对灰熊失去Battier感到失望的人,应该会很高兴Rudy的加入 "He's got the million-dollar smile," Young said. "He's as humble and per sonable a kid as I've ever met. He wants to be a face of a franchise." "他有迷人的微笑" Young说,"他是如此谦虚,而且有风度,他想成为一个代表性的人物" This franchise. True, the developments on draft night -- being selected later than he an ticipated, and then being traded -- stunned Gay. 选秀顺位比他预期的低,而且马上遭到交易的确吓坏了Rudy But in a telephone interview Friday, he said he was past all that. 但在稍後的电话访问,Rudy表示他已经能够释怀 "I'm ready to get started," he said. "我准备好要迎接NBA了"他说 If his track record means anything, Gay will not hit town with a spoken request or unspoken desire for the Grizzlies to throw him the darn ball. Remember, he was one of four guys from UConn taken in this draft's firs t round. 如果选秀顺位代表一切,Rudy不会受到曼菲斯的热烈欢迎 他可是康大四名第一轮新秀的其中之一 So he's used to sharing. Gay, who turns 20 in August, averaged 15.2 poin ts last season as a sophomore and on a less talented team he easily coul d have scored more than 20 per game. The Sporting News named him its Nat ional Freshman of the Year when he averaged 11.8 points for UConn. 所以他已经习惯去分享,Rudy八月就要满二十岁了 大二那年,也就是去年他平均每场得15.2分,但他的资质能轻易的得到20分以上 他大一每场平均得分11.8分,Sporting News将他誉为全美最棒的新人球员 "All the guys were just coming off the (2004) national championship," Ga y said, referring to his freshman season. "Me, I was just coming in to p lay my role." "队上的所有人都想着赢得2004年的全国冠军"Rudy说,当时他只是个大一新鲜人 "而我只想做好我的本分" While people have raved about his athleticism and also seem to respect h is skill as a shooter (37.8 percent from 3-point range at UConn), he arr ives with the knock of being a guy who's not assertive enough. 当人们推崇他热爱运动的程度,也敬佩他三分长射的能力时 他突然被形容为一名不够果断的球员 His harshest critics might even suggest that his "unselfishness" interse cts with passivity and, in tandem, holds him down. 他被批评过度的不自私,而且被动,这些言论对他是很大的伤害 "I'm happy with my season," he said of his sophomore year. "People are g oing to have their opinions." "我对今年(大二)的表现很满意,但别人也可以有他们自己的看法"他说 On draft night, when seven teams said no to him, the Hartford Courant re ported that Gay said, "I'm going to make every one of those teams that p assed on me pay." 对於选秀会上前七顺位都没有指名他,Rudy被报导他说他会让那些球队付出代价 He said Friday that comment was accurate. 他在星期五晚上证实他有说过这句话 "Yeah," he said, "that's my intention." "没错,这就是我的意思"他说 Young said Gay comes to the Grizzlies with high, but realistic, expectat ions. Young说Rudy对於加入灰熊感到兴奋,也充满期待 "The best thing is they've got Pau Gasol," Young said. "Rudy's not going to need to be the first option. But his goal is to win Rookie of the Ye ar and to make the playoffs." "最棒的是他们有Gasol" Young说"Rudy不用一肩扛起所有责任" "但他的目标是赢得最佳新人,并且帮助球队打入季後赛" There's another goal, too: starting to become a, if not necessarily the, face of the franchise. 还有另外一个目标,但不一定需要达成的目标,就是成为灰熊的代表人物 "I plan on coming in and being a role model for kids and being active in the community," said Gay. "I'd do that even if I wasn't following Batti er." "我想成为小孩模仿的对象,被大家谈论"Rudy说 "就算我不是遵循着Battier的行为,我还是会这麽作" But since he is following Battier, here's a little personal information about this new resident of Memphis: 而这里也有一些这位曼菲斯新居民的小资讯 He likes variety in both his music and his barbecue. 他喜欢各种音乐和烤肉 "I listen to a little bit of everything," he said. "Rap, R & B, and pop. Barbecue? I like ribs, chicken, really anything from the grill." "我每种音乐都听一点"他说,"无论是Rap, R & B, 还是流行音乐" "至於烤肉?我喜欢肋排,鸡肉,或所有在烤盘上的东西" Ask him if he's anticipating the first meeting with Houston and a chance to turn the heat up on the Rockets, and he laughs for several seconds - - time enough to carefully consider his answer. 问他原本是否期待加入火箭,他笑了一下,这段时间足以让他思索他的回答 "I'm looking forward to playing everybody," he finally said, showing the kind of diplomacy that would make Battier himself proud. "无论是什麽人我都期待跟他们一起打球"他说 --
