Bill Bradley on Knicks’ ‘Linsanity’: ‘Draft Character, Not Statistics’ Bradley谈尼克Linsanity--选秀应看特质不只看数据 May 16, 2012 2:07pm 文╱Rick Klein 原文出处：http://ppt.cc/Sf83 Long before there was Jeremy Lin, another Ivy League basketball star was the talk of the NBA – Bill Bradley, who helped lead the New York Knicks to two championships during a Hall of Fame basketball career that predated his time in the Senate. 早在林书豪之前，有另一个常春藤球星曾是NBA的话题人物––那就是Bill Bradley， 他是篮球名人堂成员，曾率领纽约尼克队拿下两届总冠军，退休之後从政成为参议员。 For a “Top Line” interview this week, we asked Bradley for his take on “ Linsanity,” a huge sports story this year that turned the Knicks – briefly – into the buzz of the NBA when the Harvard-educated Lin became a breakout star, before an injury ended his season early. 本周的「头条」访谈节目中，我们访问了Bradley对於林来疯的的看法。 出身哈佛的林书豪窜起成为风云人物，是本年度体坛最大惊奇， 在他受伤提前结束赛季之前，也曾让尼克在NBA领一时风骚。 The lesson of Lin for the Knicks, Bradley said, is that there should be more players like him. Bradley说林书豪给尼克上的一课是，像他这样的球员越多越好。 “There has to be a decision made to draft character not statistics, and do that for three or four years,” said Bradley, who led Princeton to a Final Four in 1965, then played for the Knicks from 1967 to 1977. 「选秀的时候要看人格特质而不是只看数据，而且这样的决策至少要持续三、四年。」 Bradley在1965年率领普林斯顿打进NCAA最後四强，在1967-1977年间效力於尼克队。 “I think Jeremy Lin is a really interesting player. He had 15 or 20 good games before he was injured. He has to be on a team though that moves without the ball so he can be at his best,” Bradley added. 「我认为林书豪是个非常有意思的球员。他在受伤前打了15到20场的好比赛。 他必须在一支愿意无球跑动的队伍，才能得到最大的发挥。」Bradley补充道。 He concluded with a lesson about basketball that may be applicable to politics. 他最後下了一个结论，同样适用於篮球与政治。 “If he is on a team where they hold it down and play people one-on-one, then he is not going to be able to maximize his contribution to the team, and the team is not going to win a championship.” 「如果身处一支缺乏流动、人人单打独斗的队伍，那他将无法展现长才、 为团队带来最大贡献，而这支队伍也无法赢得总冠军。」 -- 难得有一篇和薪资无关的短文，顺手翻译一下。 附上 Bill Bradley 和 Lin 在 Time 100 的合照： http://ppt.cc/-jXb --

The worst-case scenario, he figured, was that the Knicks, who needed a point guard not named Chris Duhon, would select him with one of their two second-round picks. 2010年选秀会 蒙哥本来期望尼克会用二轮签其中一支来签Lin。 “After his private predraft workout, Jeremy said Coach D’Antoni called him into his office and told him he saw some Steve Nash-type qualities in him,” Montgomery said of Knicks Coach Mike D’Antoni. “We thought he was a perfect fit for the system.” 因为在私下测试後，丹东尼把林叫进办公室，说在他身上看到Nash的特质。 经纪人和林都觉得林非常适合这个体系。 But on draft night, as he sat at home in San Antonio texting with Lin, Montgomery watched the Knicks use those second-round picks on Landry Fields, a shooting guard, and the since-jettisoned guard Andy Rautins. 结果尼克的二轮签分别选了Fields和Rautins。Q.Q ※ 编辑: noral 来自: 111.249.4.143 (05/19 17:24)
