http://www.sacbee.com/kings/story/1741591.html 周日来点怀旧的 XD With Vlade Divac's jersey retirement scheduled during halftime of tonight's Kings-Hornets game at Arco Arena, this seemed like the ideal time to spin out a CD of the former center's top-10 hits. DIVAC十大趣闻 This is totally subjective, of course. I choose the music. Going back two decades, to Divac's 1989 NBA rookie season, and in no particular order … 1. Let's start with the underwear. While the Kings were defeating the Utah Jazz in the 2002 playoffs at what was then known as the Delta Center, Divac and his teammates cracked up over a sign that read, "Vlade Divac wears women's underwear." After practice the following day, I asked if it was true. "During the game I checked to be sure," he began, with a grin. "I don't wear underwears anyway. Men's, women's, no. But I liked that sign the best." 在2002对爵士的PLAYOFFS DIVAC跟队友在球赛中以 ”DIVAC穿着女人内衣”作为口号 = = 2. Jan. 22, 1999. This was the day Divac became the first significant free agent to spurn other offers and sign with the Kings. As a caller pointed out Saturday, Sacramento isn't a cowtown. You can't even find a cow within the city limits. Yet it took a talented 7-footer to say "yes" for local residents to at least consider overcoming their inferiority complex. Sacramento isn't the Bay Area. But it's OK, it really is. DIVAC在交易到国王时成为自由球员 有人警告他说SAC TOWN是个安静的城市 没有繁华 这 个七尺大个很有义气的留下来了 也让居民都很开心 3. My first conversation with this loquacious center, sometime in 1989, in the Lakers' locker room in the Forum. I asked a question. He smiled and nodded. I asked another question. He smiled again and nodded. That's when I figured out that he spoke absolutely no English. It didn't take long. 记者回忆第一次访问VLADE 记者每问一个问题 VLADE只会点头跟微笑 於是记者确定他不会英文 XD 4. Divac's final performance in international competition. In the gold-medal game against Argentina in the 2002 FIBA World Championships in Indianapolis – after his team had eliminated Team USA in the quarterfinals – Serbia's basketball icon missed two free throws that would have clinched the championship. Sound familiar? (This was only months after Divac clanked two against the Lakers.) But on this night, with chanting, singing and flag-waving Serbs waiting to celebrate inside Conseco Fieldhouse, he was rescued by Peja Stojakovic and former Kings draft pick Dejan Bodiroga in overtime. 在202 FIBA 世界杯的最後决赛对阿根廷 (美国已经败北南斯拉夫) DIVAC在最後一节居然LOSS两球FT (跟对湖人时LOSS掉关键两球一样) 但幸好他最後跟PEJA还有Dejan Bodiroga在OT拯救了球队 5. The bruising aftermath of the Game 7 conference finals loss to the Lakers in 2002. Divac was the only member of the Kings organization to meet with reporters during the scheduled media availability the following Monday. 再输给万恶湖人的隔天 DIVAC是唯一肯接受媒体访问的球员 6. His refusal to whine about being minimized when a visibly limping Chris Webber returned to the starting lineup following knee surgery in March 2004. At the time, the Kings owned the league's best record and were on pace to demolish league records for assists by a forward/center combination (Divac and Brad Miller). Of course, that was also why he retired with the Lakers. Even Vlade has an ego. 他在CW4膝伤缺阵时拒绝沮丧 在2004年和大米一起创造了锋线球员传出 助攻数的新纪录 6. Who writes his copy? After eviscerating the San Antonio Spurs with nine assists on Jan. 29, 2004, Divac volunteered, "When I make passes, sometimes the ball has eyes. It's all instinct." 在对马刺的比赛传出九次助攻後 DIVAC发表感言” 我的传球就好像球会长眼睛一样 这是本能” 7. Missing the long flip shot at the end of Game 5 of the 1999 playoff loss to Utah, then swallowing hard and nodding when a 10-year-old approached a few days later and said, "Geez, Vlade, you should have made that shot." 在1999 playoff G5的比赛输给JAZZ 後 VLADE说 “该死 VLADE, 你应该投进那球的说” 8. Any flop against Shaq. The exaggerated flailing of arms and limbs. The mouth wide open in protest. The eyes feigning ferocity while staring down the refs. Great theater, all of it. 对付侠客三大絶招 1假摔 2嘴吧张大看着裁判 3怒瞪裁判 9. This one is an abbreviated sequence of Divac's finest passes, beginning and ending with my all-time favorite. The back-to-the-basket, bounce pass between his legs to Doug Christie, cutting baseline for a layup. 记者最喜欢VLADE的一球 背框跨下PASS给DC的漂亮LAY UP (按:谁能帮忙找到这球说? PLEASE) 10. We'll conclude with a humorous aside from NBA Commissioner David Stern, who earlier in a conversation had spoken glowingly of his former star and his global impact on the game. "Before Vlade came over with those four players (in the seminal Class of 1989), there was the old image of the European player who had no muscle and used to light up a cigarette at halftime. Vlade put an end to that. (Pause.) He waited until after the game to light up, and he knew what a weight room was." DAVID STERN是怎样评论VALDE的呢? “在VLADE来到之前 每个人对欧洲球员的印象就是 1没肌肉! 2 球赛到中场 他会跟你要打火机点只烟 但是 请注意! 在DIVAC来到之後 一切都改变了! STERN说: “他至少知道重训室的位置 而且…..他改成比赛後抽烟 “ XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD Not sure about that last line, though. --
