Snowstorm can’t keep Jeremy Lin from Sundance screening ‘Linsanity’Houston Rockets point guard shares his amazing story in documentary. By Scott D. Pierce | The Salt Lake Tribune At the height of Linsanity, much was made of the fact that sudden NBA star Jeremy Lin was sleeping on a teammate’s couch. It was true, and it’s the one thing he’s corrected since signing a three-year, $25 million contract with the Houston Rockets last summer. 在林疯狂时期，最常被人津津乐道的事就是一夕爆红的NBA球星林书豪睡在队友的 沙发上。这是真的！而这也是Lin在去年夏天获得火箭队三年二千五百万合约後更 正的事。 "My biggest purchase was my mattress," Lin said Sunday night at a screening of the documentary "Linsanity" at Salt Lake City’s Rose Wagner Performing Arts Center. "I don’t really have too many nice things. I pretty much dress the same and live the same. Lin在星期天晚上出席盐城湖日舞影展的Linsanity纪录片放映时表示："床垫是我最大 的一笔花费。我并没有拥有很多昂贵的东西。基本上，我的吃穿都没什麽改变。＂ "But my bed is awesome." 但我的床很赞！ So is his story. How he overcame doubters and racism to get a shot at the NBA. How he survived not getting drafted, then overcame getting cut by the Warriors and the Rockets. How he was down to what would have been his last game with the Knicks when he went crazy on the court and — in the space of two weeks — became an international star. 他的故事也很赞！他如何克服质疑者和种族歧视，进入NBA。他如何历经选秀落选，又 接连被勇士队和火箭队挥弃。当他在尼克队时可能面临最後一场比赛时心情有多麽低 落，而後在场上他展现了疯狂。在短短两个星期内，他变成了国际巨星。 And how his faith kept him humble. How his sudden rise to fame can be attributed to "definitely, first and foremost, God," he said. "As the documentary showed, there were too many things that happened in my life that were beyond my control. And I’ll be the first one to admit that." (He said he’s thought about going into the ministry, and hasn’t ruled it out for after basketball.) 他的信仰如何让他保持谦逊。Lin表示他的名声快速崛起毫无疑问地是神的功蹟。 "正如同纪录片里所呈现的，我的生命里有太多发生的事是我无法掌控的。而我将会是 第一个承认的人。" （Lin表示他曾经考虑过要成为宣教士，现在也不排除打完篮球之後会进入教会。） What nobody could control on Sunday night, the last night of the Sundance Film Festival, was the weather. The big question was whether Lin, 24, would make it to the screening at all. The snowstorm left the Rockets grounded in Grand Junction, Colo., as they were trying to fly to Salt Lake City for Monday ’s game against the Utah Jazz. 星期天晚上，日舞影展电影节的最後一晚，没有人能控制的则是天气。最大的问题是 24岁的Lin究竟能不能出席。火箭队为了星期一和犹他爵士队的比赛飞往盐湖城，却 因为暴风雪而被迫降落在科罗拉多州的Grand Junction。 Lin slipped into the back of the theater in the final minutes of the 6:30 p.m. screening, just in time to take questions from the audience. Lin在晚上六点半放映结束的最後一分钟赶到戏院，刚好赶上观众的问答时间。 "If you’ve seen the film, you know nothing is going to stop Jeremy Lin — even a snowstorm," said director Evan Jackson Leong. 导演梁伊凡表示："假如你看过这部影串片，你就会明白没有任何事可以阻挡林书豪， 就算是暴风雪。" It was just the latest in a string of serendipitous events for Lin and the filmmakers. Leong first approached the man at the center of "Linsanity" when Lin was still a college basketball player at Harvard, long before anyone knew if he’d ever get a shot at the NBA. And Lin wasn’t exactly enthusiastic. 这仅仅只是Lin和影片制作人一连串意外收获中的最後一件。梁第一次和Lin接触时， Lin只是哈佛的一名篮球队员，没有人知道他是否能进入NBA，而Lin也不是很有兴趣 拍摄纪录片。 "In general, I’m a very private person. I’m very camera shy," he said. "So I was definitely very against it." "基本上，我是个很注重隐私的人，我面对镜头也很害羞。"Lin表示，"所以我之前很 排斥。" But Leong persevered, and Lin eventually decided, "If my career goes down the drain, the worst thing I’ll have is some cool footage. It turned into this. And we had no idea." 但是梁非常地不屈不挠，而Lin最後决定，"假如我的生涯将就此结束，最糟的状况就是 我还可以拥有一些蛮酷的影片。我们都不知道事情会有这样的变化。" No one expected that, after years of hard work, Lin would become an overnight sensation. 没有人期望在经年累月的努力之後，Lin会一夜变成大人物。 "As we kept shooting, we didn’t have an ending," Leong said. "And when he got cut by the Warriors and by the Rockets, we were like, ‘Oh, man.’ And last February, he gave us an ending." "当我们在拍摄的时候，我们并没有设定结局。"梁表示，"当他接连被勇士和火箭队 挥弃的时候，我们只能"oh man"（替他叹息），但在去年二月，Lin给了我们一个 结局。" 原文网址：http://tinyurl.com/b9rszjr 我的会只开了六分钟， 所以我还是坚持把这篇翻完了。 --
