What they can do, however, is make sure the aftermath is not nearly so damaging this time around. And for what it’s worth, Jeremy Lin believes his club is now far better equipped to avoid another prolonged slump. 没有布朗博士发明DeLorean跑车或是时光机 （回到未来的梗） 火箭队对於这令人失望的结果当然无计可施。 他们可以做的，当然只能将结果带来的伤害减低到最低 但值得的是，Jeremy Lin 相信球队已经有对策能够避免再度连败。 “That’s not to guarantee a win tomorrow or the day after,” he said Monday after practice. “But I know for a fact, us as a team, we’re a lot more mature and that we have solidified an identity right now. We know what we have to get back to and we spent all day drilling it. That first New Orleans game, we had an idea but we were just kind of guessing. We tried a lot of different things during that seven-game slump to try to change and alter things before we finally got back to what was working for us. So we now have what we feel is a blueprint for what we want to do.” ”当然不是保证明天或是接下来的比赛都会必胜“ 他在周一的练习後说着。 ”但我知道一件事，我们团结一致，更成熟了，且凝聚出球队特性 我们知道必须回复状态，因此我们花费了整天的时间去演练。 第一场对上黄蜂的比赛，我们有些想法但又没有把握 在七连败期间我们用过各种方法，调整 改变 直到找到最适合我们的 关於我们该做些什麽，我们都有了蓝图“ That blueprint had been downright devastating to opponents prior to the speed bump Houston encountered Sunday night in Sacramento. The Rockets came into their matchup with the Kings averaging more than 118 points per game over their previous seven contests, all accomplished while shooting better than 51 percent from the field and 43 percent from three-point territory. In fact, Houston was so ridiculously hot during that stretch that the club’s offensive rating (points per 100 possessions) over those seven games was an otherworldly 121.6. For perspective, Oklahoma City currently leads the NBA with an offensive rating of 110.3. Little wonder, then, that Houston’s point differential over that span was an eye-popping +14.9. 这个做法，在周日对上国王的比赛，曾成功的毁灭对手 在对国王比赛之前， 火箭近七场的平均每场得分来到118分，FG%超过51%, 3PT FG%为43% 事实上，前七场在联盟的排名里面， 火箭队有非常夸张的进攻效率（每100回合得分数来到121.6） 总观来说，雷霆队目前是联盟排名第一，为110.3 而火箭前七场的得失分是让人眼睛一亮的+14.9 So yes, you could say the Rockets began this three-game west coast swing on a bit of a roll. And now, in a season that’s already been filled with plenty of growth spurts and growing pains, the club’s players and coaches will get yet another chance to see how far they’ve come and just how much they’ve learned by watching how the team responds to this latest bit of adversity. 是的，你大可认为这三场对上西区的比赛，火箭能有小部份优势 不过现在，在这个赛季他们已经快速成长也面临挣扎。 而透过这几场的挑战，球队的成员和教练可以知道， 他们已经走了多远，并且成长的如何 That Lin is confident in his club’s ability to respond in a positive fashion is no surprise since he’s already persevered through an abundance of ups and downs himself over the course of his young NBA career, not to mention the roller coaster ride this season has been for him at times as well. The 24-year-old really struggled over the course of the season’s first six weeks, culminating in a rough performance against the Raptors that led him to describe his play up to that point in the season as “terrible.” Lin毫无疑问对於球队的能力充满信心， 因为他已在他目前短短的NBA生涯，经历过了许多次的高潮和低潮。 这季他也如同云霄飞车一样高低起伏 这位24岁的男孩在开季後的前六周确实陷入挣扎 在对上暴龙的比赛更是来到最低潮， 他自己都自嘲说”糟透了“ Ever since, however, his production has steadily improved, as has his confidence. Lin has been especially strong of late, averaging 15.4 points, 6.6 assists and almost two steals per game over his last nine contests, all while shooting nearly 52 percent from both the field and beyond the arc. And it was with that improvement – both his own and his team’s – in mind that Rockets.com sat down with Jeremy Sunday morning to discuss the source of their respective renaissance. What follows is the transcript of that conversation. 即使如此，他的表现已持续进步，就如他的信心一样。 Lin近来表现突出，过去九场比赛 平均15.4分，6.6助攻以及几乎每场都有2抄截，FG%也接近52% 而且这些是他以及球队的进步。 因此我们在周日早上访问了Jeremy，来讨论他们“复活”的原因 下面是访问的内容 （OS: 吼!打到现在才正式进入啾咪的话 >"<） JFC You guys have put up so many ridiculous numbers on offense of late, but the one that perhaps stands out the most to me is how, over the past seven games, you guys have been averaging nearly 27 assists per game versus just 13 turnovers per game. That obviously represents a stark departure from the January slump when it was just turnoverpalooza every night. I know the schedule was brutal back then – was it really just as simple as getting some rest and sorely needed practice time? 你们最近在攻击端创造了许多夸张的数字， 让我印象最深的是，过去七场平均团队助攻达27次，但只有13次失误 那无疑是说，你们已经退出一月的“失误大赛”了 我知道赛程已经比较缓和，但那是单纯因休息和练习时间比较多吗？ Jeremy LIN I think that’s a part of it and then I think the other part is you drop a couple and then you panic, you hesitate and you second guess. Then everything that was once natural and free flowing now isn’t. Even the game that broke the slump (Charlotte), was not a good game. It felt like a loss. But then we were able to rest and get back to our principles, we were able to watch some film, see what we were supposed to play like and get back to doing what we were supposed to do. 我想那只是部份原因。 另一部份原因是因为失败了很多次後，开始慌张以及迟疑然後胡思乱想 然後每件事情都变得随性且毫无章法，不过现在可不是了。 即使我们赢了山猫的那场也打的不好，我觉得好像输了一样。 但之後我们能够休息，并且回复我们的状态。 我们看了些影片，看看我们可以怎麽打，并且试着打出来 （OS: 是看Linsanity的影片, 还是the last pick？） I think the biggest thing is Chandler Parsons and James Harden have really upped their assist totals and they’ve become really good playmakers. I think our team is focused now where, every possession we have, we want to make the right play and get the right shot. When you simplify it, it becomes fun to play and fun to watch. 最重要的是Parsons和Harden升级成助攻模式，成为了很好的进攻策动者 球队现在专注在比赛的每回合，正确的进攻方法，对的投篮选择 当你简化这些事，比赛和观赛都变得有趣了 JFC I think you can see that on the court. The decision-making has become so much better; whereas during that losing streak the pace dropped, the spacing crumbled and, as a result, too often guys seemed to force things. Now obviously the red-hot shooting helps – everything looks better when you’re knocking down 43 percent of your threes – but it’s the sheer quantity of good looks you guys are getting that really stands out. 我想你也发现，投篮选择变得好很多。 而连败期间，失去了节奏 没有空间，球员想要勉强去投。 但现在很显然red-hot投篮的方法很有帮助， 当你三分球命中率达43%时，每件事看起来都更好了 这绝对是使你们看起来更加出众。 Jeremy Lin Yeah, it’s very easy, very natural and I think the biggest thing is we’re moving the ball from side to side, from backcourt to frontcourt really, really fast. We feel like if we move the ball from side to side and we play at the pace with which he can play then the defense is going to eventually give us something good. And like you said, it doesn’t hurt that we’ve been knocking down our shots. But I think part of it also is the quality of the shot. 是阿，这很简单，而且很自然。最重要的是球的传导。 非常非常快的传到另一边，以及从後场传到前场 如果很快将球传到另一边，并且按照我们的节奏走，防守端也同样会受益 就像你提到的， 投篮不顺并不会击倒我们，重点是投篮的品质 (OS: 通常不是防守为优先～然後进攻就有信心！？) JFC You’ve really been stroking it, too. I thought there was a telling moment during that Portland game, something I don’t think I’ve seen all season, where you brought the ball up early in the shot clock, saw that your man was sagging off you and, without any hesitation whatsoever, pulled up and drained a three … 你确实说到重点了， 对上拓荒者那场很明显，我看到了一些在本赛季从未看到的事情。 在进攻时间开始就拿到了球，你的队友就把机会给你 你在没有任何迟疑之下，跳投了三分球 Jeremy Lin You mean long two … 你是说踩在三分线上的二分球吧 （OS: 纠正记者，让我想到ESPN SoprtsCenter的机车哈佛男） JCF Oh, that’s right! I forgot they went back, reviewed it and saw your foot was on the line. But the overall point still holds: that shot still speaks to what seems to be a significant increase in your confidence in your shot these days. 喔！对啦！我忘了後来重新检查这球，你脚踩在线上，分数扣回去了， 不过还是有得分啦。不过很显然你投球的信心在近日来增长很多 Jeremy Lin Definitely. It feels good right now. I feel like I’m shooting the ball a lot better. I’m definitely trying to look for some shots and I feel like, if it’s a good shot, then you’ve just got to shoot it and forget the percentage or all the other stuff. If it’s a good shot for that player, you’ve got to take it. 当然。现在这感觉很棒！我自己感觉目前投篮好很多。 我毫无疑问的试图投一些我觉得应该要出手的球， 然後就去投, 忘记命中率或是所有其他事。 对一个球员来说，若有好的投篮机会，你就应该要投 JCF I keep thinking back to that Toronto game in mid-December. You’d had a rough game, the team had just lost, and you walked out of that locker room looking like the weight of the world was on your shoulders before proceeding to publicly beat yourself up for your play up to that point. Can you compare and contrast how far both you and this team have come since that point? I don’t want to put words in your mouth but it sure seemed like you were feeling as low as you’d been all year that day. 我回想起十二月中对暴龙的那场，你打的很糟，球队输球。 在还没被任何人责怪你那晚的表现之前， 走出更衣室的时候，你那沈重的表情就像是肩负着整个世界一样 你可以比较并且对照一下，从那场比赛後，这只球队的进展吗？ 我不想硬套这些在你身上，但确实看起来你当时是处於整年的最低潮 Jeremy Lin No, you’re right. I think that, for me, was a turning point in the season. In between the Toronto and New York game, the way we played in the New York game, I think that started our first run. That’s what we should try to do every night. 你说的没错。对我来说，在本赛季那是个转捩点。 在暴龙和尼克的比赛之间，对上尼克的打法，就是我们的开始 我们应该每晚都要这麽打 Then we went through another slump, that seven-game slide. It basically shows a young team, right? We’re down, we’re up, we’re down again, then we’re up. If you look at the San Antonios and the Oklahomas – they stay steady and that’s what we’re trying to get to, but it’s going to take some time. 然後我们又经历了另一次七连败。 这只是说明我们是很菜的球队，不是嘛？ 我们有高峰有低谷，又一次陷入低谷，然後又到高峰。 如果你有注意马刺以及雷霆，他们战绩稳定 那是我们也想达到的高度，但那需要花些时间。 （OS: 哈登你老东家真的太硬了啦～） JCF Are you surprised at all at the success you’ve had up to this point? I know the goal at the start of the season was to make the playoffs and I know there was belief in this locker room that you could reach that goal. But you guys have been blowing a lot of teams out. You’re not one of those clubs that has gotten to this point by boasting an unsustainable record of prevailing in a bunch of tight games. You’ve crushed a lot of quality clubs; something that’s typically indicative of a really good team. Add to that an offense that’s creeping into top-5 territory – that’s not how it’s supposed to work in this league for a team with so many new faces, so many young players and so little time to gel as a group in training camp. 你对目前为止的战绩感到讶异吗？ 我知道在季初的目标就是要进季後赛， 在更衣室里面，球员都有信心可以做到，你们也已赢过许多球队了， 但你们不是在强度高的比赛，仍保持状态的那种球队， 打赢许多战绩好的球队了，代表着你们也是很好的球队 进一步说，进攻是Top 5，照说不会发生在有许多菜鸟的球队中， 这麽多菜鸟球员，并且只有一点点共同的时间在训练营相处 (OS: 原来季初就设定目标要进季後赛！！！) Jeremy Lin I think we’ve definitely surprised ourselves a little bit. Like you said, it’s maybe not so much the fact that we win games but how we’ve won some of these games. The thing that we keep saying to ourselves and the thing that Coach McHale keeps telling us is, ‘You guys can be really, really good. You have no idea how good you can become.’ But the problems that we get into – holding the ball, poor decisions, lack of focus on defense – if we can shore those things up, who knows how good we can be? That’s what Coach is always telling us: ‘I don’t care how young we are and I don’t care that everybody says you’re the youngest team in the league – that doesn’t matter to me. Throw that out the window. Be as good as you can become. I think that’s what we’re really working toward right now. 我想我们都有点很讶异目前的成绩。 如同你说的，重要的是我们如何赢得比赛。 我们不断的告诉自己，以及教练不停的和我们说的 ”你们一定可以成为一群很优秀的球员，你们将无法想像你们会有多棒” 但我们现在遇到了些状况，持球，糟糕的进攻选择，防守不专注， 如果我们可以改善这些状况，没人知道我们将有多棒 这是教练总是不停告诉我们的事情 “我不在乎我们有多菜， 也不在乎别人说我们是联盟里面是最菜的队伍，那都无关紧要 把这些事都抛诸脑後，努力做到最好” 我想这些就是我们目前正在做的事情 後面是在讲对上勇士的比赛～大意是说对於上次勇士的比赛并无心结 David Lee 和Parsons还在推特上互相开玩笑 因为没有林，我就不翻了，只附上原文 ******** There should be no shortage of drama and intrigue leading up to Tuesday night’s showdown with the Golden State Warriors – not after all the postgame back-and-forth that ensued following the Rockets’ 140-109 win that saw Houston tie an NBA record with 23 three-pointers made in the contest. But for all the talk and entertaining postgame tweets, don’t expect much in the way of bad blood to manifest itself on the court, primarily because there’s probably not a whole lot that truly exists (at least not yet anyway). Case in point: Chandler Parsons is actually friends with Warriors’ forward David Lee (they’re both University of Florida products and share the same agent) and Golden State head coach ark Jackson, and each found the humor in Parsons’ playful “hand down, man down” jabs that came at the Warriors’ expense a week ago. “I’m really cool with Mark Jackson,” Parsons explained. “We’ve always been very funny and joking around with each other. I said that to him (after a made three): ‘Hand down, man down,’ and he started dying laughing. So really I tweeted that just being funny; I wasn’t trying to be disrespectful or anything. “I don’t expect anything ridiculous (Tuesday night). I’m sure their crowd will be into it and loud. I’ve gotten some tweets from Warrior fans. But really it’s just another game for us. I don’t know how they’re approaching it, if they’re using last game as motivation or what they’re doing, but it’s another game for us that we want to go out there and win. We’re not worried about what happened last time.” ******** James Harden and Toney Douglas did not participate in Monday’s practice. Harden was slowed by a sore knee he sustained late in Sunday’s matchup with Sacramento, while Douglas continues to recover from a hip pointer injury suffered against Portland last Friday night. Both are being listed as day-to-day. 这段是说 哈登和TDG现在都在每日观察名单当中 ******************************************************** 其实我原本是要翻另一篇NY Times的文章， 刚好去火箭官网找资料结果首页就看到这篇...Q & A 配图是Jeremy Lin的三分眼镜，然後写 We See You, Warriors 还好是过年，明天还可以补眠 ^_< 但翻了好几个小时～发现火箭官网有中文版 这篇有完整翻译好的 （晕） 只能当对答案，看自己翻译的功力好了 (>"<) ******************************************************** --
