※ 引述《farain (冰啤酒)》之铭言： : http://www.nba.com/2012/news/features/chris_dortch/02/17/lin-college : -break/index.html : 缩网址 : http://goo.gl/nFtwz : 这篇用另外的角度去观察林书豪坎坷的际遇对他篮球技巧的影响，里面也说明当初 : 史丹佛大学不选他的原因，蛮值得一看的，不过我英文太烂就不要在这翻译献丑了 : 全文如下: : Eight games and two weeks into worldwide Linsanity, all everyone wants to : talk about is how New York Knicks point guard Jeremy Lin could have been : overlooked by so many people who make their living evaluating talent. 全世界在这两个礼拜里的陷入所谓的 "林来疯", 所有人都想知道这位Knicks 的控卫林书豪　为什麽被现场的评估人员给忽略 : From coaches at about 340 NCAA Division I schools to a couple of NBA general : managers who released him, to even his current employer, which had played him : all of 55 minutes in his first 23 games before injuries forced his insertion : into the starting lineup, it seems no one understood the power of Lin -- : until he was given the big stage on which to perform. 　 　从340所NCAA Division I的学校到NBA的释出他的GM, 甚至现在的球队在他前 　23场比赛也只让他打了55分钟直到有人受伤才被迫放他进球员名单。 　看起来没有人知道林书豪的厉害，直到他终於有了表现的舞台。 : But here's the real story: When all those D-I teams -- even Stanford, located : across the street from where Lin played high school basketball -- took a pass : on him in 2006, Lin caught the break of his life. Because the one school that : believed his intangible strengths would one day trump his more obvious : physical limitations was Harvard, which would eventually be coached by a : former point guard. : Make that a great former point guard who saw in Lin the same potential to be : special. 　这是个真实的故事：包含在他高中对面的Stanford在内，当所有D-I的球队都忽略他 　的时候，但是林书豪很幸运的获得哈佛的肯定。哈佛的教练也是名控卫，他发现林有 　成为伟大控卫的特质 : Lin played just one year for the coach who recruited him, Frank Sullivan, who : was fired in 2007. His replacement was Tommy Amaker, who as a player at Duke : became an All-American and helped coach Mike Krzyzewski start a dynasty. : Even former Stanford coach Trent Johnson, who in the last two weeks has : patiently answered question after question from the media about why he didn't : sign Lin, says Harvard was the best possible place for him. 　但是这名教练在林进去的一年後被开除了，新教练是Tommy Amaker，Tommy在Duke打过球 　并且帮当时的教练Mike Krzyzewski开启了Duke王朝。两周前当媒体问前Standford的 　教练Trent Johnson为什麽不签林，Trent还是认为哈佛才是林可以发挥得最好地方， : In fairness to Johnson, now the head coach at LSU, it has to be pointed out : that the five-man recruiting class he signed during Lin's senior season in : high school included three players -- Brook and Robin Lopez and Landry Fields : -- now playing in the NBA, and another point guard, Da'Veed Dildy. And it : wasn't as though Johnson didn't see some sort of potential in Lin. Without : another scholarship available, Johnson offered Lin, who at the time had the : physical dimensions of a No. 2 pencil, a chance to walk on, build up his body : and eventually earn a scholarship. 　 　为了替Johnson表示一点公平，必须说当年藉由five-man recruiting class招募的球员 　其中有三名进了NBA，他们是 Brook,Robin Lopez以及Landry Fields。还有一名不如预 　期的控卫，Johnson那时给了林另一个机会"walk on"，只要他进来球队表现良好一样 　可以获得奖学金。 : Cal and UCLA also asked Lin to walk on. But Lin and has family wanted a : scholarship. When an offer never came, he wound up at Harvard, which plays in : a conference, the Ivy League, that doesn't offer athletic scholarships. 　 　Cal 以及 UCLA 也同样给了林　walk on的机会。但是林跟他们家人想要正式的奖学金。 　在一个offer也没拿到的情况下，林选择了Ivy League的哈佛，哈佛并不提供运动奖学 　金。 : "He could have come to Stanford -- and we did have a history of taking : walk-ons and let them earn scholarships," Johnson said. "But if he'd have : stayed at our place, I don't know if he'd have developed his game. I was : throwing that thing inside at the time because of the size we had. So Jeremy : ends up at Harvard, but he didn't knock the world out his freshman and : sophomore seasons. : "The story should be how, after his sophomore year, Jeremy started to develop : under Tommy Amaker's tuteledge." 　Johnson说：「他可以来Stanford的，我们过去也有球员藉由Walk-ons的机会获得奖学 　金，但是在我们这我不知道他是不是可以有所发挥，因为人员的数量，我把事情搁下了 　，林也选择了哈佛，而他在大学第一年以及第二年也没有甚麽发挥。这故事应该是在 　林二年级的时候Tommy怎麽指导他的才对。」 : Amaker would have never gotten the chance to work with Lin had it not been : for a chance sighting by former Harvard assistant Bill Holden. In the summer : of 2006, Holden was approached by Lin's coach at Palo Alto High School, Peter : Diepenbrock, at an AAU tournament in Las Vegas and asked to give an honest : evaluation. 　 　Tommy并没有跟前Harvard助理教练Bill Holden共事。Holden在2006年的时候曾经被要求 　去看林的中学篮球比赛比赛。并且被要求诚实地说出对林的评价。 : "It was a very noncompetitive game I was seeing him in," Holden told radio : station SN 590 The Fan in Toronto. "It wasn't a good evaluation game, : unfortunately. Six years ago, Jeremy Lin was an inch and a half shorter and : about 50, 60 pounds lighter. He didn't really pass the eye test back then." : Thus, Holden's snap judgment on Lin's potential wasn't what Diepenbrock : wanted to hear. "I told him Jeremy should go play for a Division III school," : Holden said. 　 　Holden说：「那是一场压倒性的比赛，不是一场可以用来评价球员的比赛，六年前， 　林的身高不够高，体重也不够重，他并没有认真地去评价，然後建议林去打D-III的比 赛。」 : A day later, Holden changed his mind when he saw Lin play again. : "For whatever reason -- the environment, the competition -- he was able to : show his skill set, his ability to get to the rim, his ability to get into : the lane and make some shots, and the ability to play some defense, which I : didn't see him do the day before," Holden said. "Physically, you could tell : he wasn't done growing. He hadn't hit his maturation peak yet. 　但是一天後，当Holden又看到他的比赛的时候，Holden改变了他的心意。 Holden说：「不管是甚麽理由，林展现了他的技巧，他有办法切入，还是做一些跳投 ，而且他也可以防守。事实上，你可以说他还在成长中，他还没到他的巅峰。」　 　 : "He still had a long way to go. He had shown some quickness, but physically, : that was about it. But his basketball knowledge and instincts for the game is : what drew me to him, and hopefully, the other things would kick in." : Consider Holden's second evaluation ground zero for Linsanity, for even : though Lin led Palo Alto to the California Division II state championship : over a nationally ranked Mater Dei team that had seven players 6-7 or taller, : no mid-major schools offered him a scholarship. 「林还有很长的路要走，他有展现了一些速度，但是大概就只有这样。但是他对球场上 　的掌握以及本能让我眼睛一亮，我只希望他在其他方面可以赶快成长。」 　考虑到Holden的第二次评估报告，即使林带领了Palo Alto打败了加州D-II州冠军队， 　那个州冠军队伍有七个6尺七寸以上的球员，没有任何学校要给他奖学金。 : "That, to me, is the amazing thing," Johnson said. "Where was everybody else? : When I was the coach at Nevada, I'd have jumped all over him, because in : terms of his build, he reminded me of Todd Okeson, the point guard we had at : Nevada who helped us get to the Sweet 16 in 2004. The question I had with : Todd [who weighed 165 pounds] was, physically, could he hold up? That's the : one thing you can't predict when you're talking about a kid who's that : skinny." 　 　Johnson(Standford前教练)说:「对我来说这真太神奇了，没有人要他吗！？当我在 Nevada当教练的时候，我会不故一切想要林，因为它让我联想到了Todd Oksen，Todd 帮助我们在2004年得到了16连胜。但我对Todd还有太轻的问题，他挺得住吗?这是你无 　法预测的，尤其他看起来有些瘦」 : "I had the same question about Jeremy, but we still wanted him to walk on at : Stanford, maybe develop his body. Go back and look at all the guys who walked : on for me and played. There was a history there. I liked his skill level and : the fact that his teams won." 　「我对林有相同的疑问，但是还是希望他可以来利用Walk-on的机会。他可以看看过去 　在我底下里用Walk-on的球员，我喜欢的他的实力还有他们球队赢球的事实。」 : Stanford, or any other Division I school that offers scholarships, wasn't : meant to be for Lin. But Harvard, a school that has produced twice as many : U.S. presidents (eight) as NBA players (four), turned out to be the best : place he could have gone. That became obvious when, after Lin's freshman : season, Sullivan was fired after failing to lead the Crimson to a league : title in 16 years. 　林似乎命中注定无法去Stanford或是其他提供Scholarships的学校。但是这所产出 　 　八位总统四位NBA球员的哈佛变成林的最佳选择。在第一年教练被Fire掉，因为16年来 　他无法带领球队获得长春藤联盟冠军。 　　 　 : The next phase of Linsanity began when Amaker took over the program. : Unlike Johnson, Amaker, who's trying to lead Harvard-21-3 and 7-1 in the Ivy : League-to a conference championship and the program's first NCAA Tournament : appearance since 1946, isn't answering questions from the media about Lin. : But Will Wade, a VCU assistant who worked for Amaker during Lin's sophomore : and junior seasons, shares Trent Johnson's belief that his former boss helped : make Lin what he is today. 林来疯的下一章在Amaker接管哈佛球队的时候开始。不像之前教练，Amaker带领哈佛 获得长春藤联盟冠军，并且让球队在自从1946年後首度进入NCAA的锦标赛，但这没有 回答媒体的问题。在林的前两年当任助理教练的Bill Wade分享他前老板是如何帮助 林，造就了今天的林。 : "Jeremy was a very, very driven kid," Wade said. "A kid who had a lot of : layers to him. But what really spurred his growth was that coach Amaker took : a vested interest in his development. Coach Amaker saw things in Jeremy that : he probably didn't see in himself." Wade说「林非常的认真，他有很多的障碍，但是Amaker投入了很多促成他的成长， 　Amaker发现林自己没发现的东西。」 : In Lin, Amaker found a willing pupil who wanted to get better. : "He was a tremendous worker," Wade said. "He was always wanting to learn, : always asking questions. Sometimes, he would get frustrated with himself : because he wasn't progressing at the rate he wanted to progress. For him, it : was great having coach Amaker mentor him and guide him." 　Amaker发现林是个意志力强然後力求上进的人。 Wade说　「林是个努力认真的球员，他不断去学，问问题，有时候他会受到挫折，因为 　　 　他没有如自己预期的进步，对於林来说有Amaker指导他真是太好了。」 : Lin averaged 4.8 points and 1.8 assists in 18.1 minutes a game as a freshman. : In his first season playing for Amaker, he played 31.3 minutes a game and : averaged 12.6 points and 3.6 assists. Lin's glaring weakness was 3-point : shooting (28.1 and 27.9 percent his first two seasons), but at Amaker's : behest, Lin turned himself into a threat from behind the arc. 　大学第一年林的平均得分是4.8分，1.8次助攻，18.1的上场时间。在Amaker底下的 第一个球季是平均12.6分，3.6次助攻。林的弱点是三分球(前两个球季的命中率是 28.1%以及27.9%)，但是在Amaker的指导下，他开始变成敌人真正的威胁。 : "He wasn't a great shooter," Wade said. "He was pretty good in the mid range, : but he didn't have range to 3. People would back off and play him as a : driver, so he'd force shots and not get as many clean looks. Jeremy worked : hard on expanding his range. That made his pull-up jumper almost deadly, and : when he was able to be a consistent threat from 3, it opened up the whole : floor for him. Wade说 「他不是个好射手，他在中距离表现很好，但在三分球就不是了，很多人会退 後防止他切入，所他被迫在外围出手。林开始练习加大攻击范围，他的急停跳投是致命 的，当他有能力开始投三分球，他将有办法进行任何攻击。」 : "That's why, in Jeremy's junior year, it was his team. Coach Amaker basically : gave him the keys to the bus and said, 'Let's go.' " 　「这是为什麽球队在三年级的时候变成林的球队，Amaker基本上就是把主导权给了林」 : With Lin taking charge, Harvard went from 8-22 in Amaker's first season to : 14-14 his second. Lin averaged 17.7 points, 4.2 assists and 2.4 steals, but : more importantly, he shot 40 percent from 3. Lin's numbers were down slightly : the next year, because Harvard had better players, and he didn't have to do : quite so much. But the Crimson finished 21-7 and advanced to the College : Basketball Invitational. 　哈佛球队在林的带领下从前一季的8胜22败变成14胜14败。林平均得分17.7，4.2次助攻 ，2.4次抄截。最重要的是林有40%的得分来自於三分球。隔年林的数据下降了，因为 哈佛来了不错的球员，他不需要自己去做那麽多事。那年哈佛以21胜7败结束球季， 并且参加全国大学篮球赛。 : It wouldn't be long before the Legend of Lin became a worldwide phenomenon. : But Lin had no idea what was ahead. : His ambition was to become a youth minister. : "That's what he told me the last year I was at Harvard," Wade said. "You have : no idea how good of a person he is. Just a great, great person. A quiet : leader that people are naturally drawn to. I'm sure he would have been a : great youth minister." 并没有花林太多时间，他的传奇变成全世界注目的焦点。 但是林以前不知道会这样，他以前就是想要成为一个牧师。 Wade说「这是林去年在哈佛跟我说的，你不知道他是多棒的人，就是超棒。一个天生 的领袖，他们自然而然会去注意他，我很确定他一定会成为一个好的牧师。」 : And that's what Lin might have become, if not for Amaker's belief that Lin : had next-level talent. That was confirmed when Lin was a junior and he scored : 25 points in a win over a Boston College team that included future NBA player : Reggie Jackson and was coming off an upset of North Carolina. : After that season, during which Lin became the only player in the country to : be ranked among the top 10 in every major statistical category in his : conference, he still wasn't sure he could play basketball beyond college, let : alone in the NBA. Amaker thought Lin was capable, but knew he had to get even : better. 林将来可能真的会变牧师，如果Amaker没有去发掘的林的潜力。还有一次确认林实力的 是在林大三的时候打败Boston 学院并且获得了25分，那时Boston有一个未来的NBA球员 Reggie Jackson，并且暴冷门打败北卡。 : "The thing Jeremy knows, and we have talked about this since the end of last : season, is that he needs to make others better," Amaker told Blue Ribbon : College Basketball Yearbook in 2009. "Can he become a better leader? You look : at his numbers; it's tough to say he needs to improve here or there. He's a : throwback, a complete player with a great deal of energy and competitiveness. : "[But] it's no longer good enough to drive himself. Now, it's time to bring : others along with him. Can he be a special player who makes an impact on : others?" : Eight games and two weeks into Linsanity, that question has been answered -- : and then some. Amaker跟Blue Ribbon College Basketball Yearbook 说「球季结束後，林知道而我 们也在谈论的是如何让队友变得更好。他可以变成更好的领袖吗?你看看他的数据， 很难去说他需要去改进甚麽，他是守本分并且有大量能量以及竞争力的球员。 但是对他来说永远都不够好，现在是时候拉者别人跟他一起变好，不知道他是不是一 个如此特殊并且可以给其他人带来影响的球员。」 两个礼拜以及八场的比赛带来的"林来疯" 已经回答了这个问题。也回答了其他人不同 的疑问。 第一次翻译..要鞭的手下留情阿~ --
