After signing his four-year, $16 million contract in July, Novak is loving life as a Knick again. The Miami playoff series — when he scored just 15 points in five games, making five 3-pointers — is in the past. He notched a team-high 21 points Friday. “Jason and Raymond, they just put it in your hands at the right times,’’ Novak said. “Those guys draw so much attention to themselves sometimes, I just stay out and let them give it to me whenever they want.’’ 今年7月，诺瓦克与尼克签订一份4年价值1600万美元的合同，在上赛季季後赛尼克对阵 热火的系列赛中，他在这个系列赛中仅仅拿下15分，命中5记三分远投。 如今他在季前 赛首战拿下了球队最高分的21分。 “基德和肥顿都是很优秀的控卫，他们会在合适的时候把球交到你的手中。”诺瓦克说 ，“他们能够吸引对方的防守注意，而我只需要站在自己最熟悉的位置，等待他们的传 球。” Not that he doesn’t wish it would have gone differently with Lin. They still speak, and did so as recently as Thursday. “I definitely was [shocked],’’ Novak said. “I called Jeremy when I was getting close to my deal. And I said, ‘We’re going to be teammates.’ I was sure he was coming back and he didn’t. “As a friend in anything, if you think you’re going to be back on the team with a friend, it’s exciting. And then he was gone. That to me was a bummer. ’’ 但这并不代表他已经忘记了林书豪。虽然分隔两地，但他们平时依旧时常通电话。“当我 和尼克的合同基本谈定的时候，我给他打了一个电话，我当时说：‘我们马上又将成为队 友了！’因为我相信他会留在这里。” “作为朋友，我当然希望能够和他做队友。可惜他最後还是离开了球队，这让我感到很难 过。” But Novak has no regrets about re-signing, a deal made possible by the Players Association winning an arbitration case against the NBA, which restored Novak’s Early Bird rights. Without the June victory, the Knicks would have had to use their mid-level exception to retain Novak and would have chosen not to. (Ultimately, they got Kidd for the mid-level). Novak, out of Brown Deer, Wis., and Marquette, could have wound up with his hometown Bucks. “I knew that, winning the case, I honestly think it was biggest for me of all the guys’ part of it,’’ said Novak. “It affected me the most.’’ The Bucks were in the mix. “We talked,’’ Novak said. “We talked several times when I’ve been a free agent. I never know for sure at what level. But no, I wanted to be back . If I could choose Milwaukee or New York, hands down, New York. It’s the truth.’ ’ 但是对於自己续约一事，诺瓦克没有感到一丝後悔。在夏天的谈判阶段，来自威斯康辛州 的他本有可能加盟家乡球队公鹿。 诺瓦克说：“我们确实谈过，当时我是自由球员，我们讨论过好几次，我不确定究竟深入 到什麽程度，但最终还是拒绝了，我希望重返尼克。如果我可以选择的话，尼克和公鹿， 那麽当时是尼克了，这就是事实。” Mike Woodson scoured the tapes of the Miami series to see what went wrong with Novak. And the coach doesn’t see it ever happening again. “We learned from that, and we got Kidd, Pablo, Raymond, guys who can play off the ball in pick-and-rolls and somebody’s going to be open,’’ Woodson said. “If Novak is not open, somewhere someone else is open. I like the ballclub in terms of our point guards being able to run pick-and-rolls and will free up shooters like JR [Smith] and Novak a lot.’’ 伍德森在观看了上赛季热火与尼克系列赛中诺瓦克的糟糕表现，他说：“我们从中学到了 许多东西，因此我们选择了基德、普里吉奥尼、肥顿等可以进行挡拆战术的球员，让空位 球员能够得到投篮的机会。即使诺瓦克没有空位机会，其他人也会得到空位投篮的机会。 我们现在的控卫可以进行挡拆战术，而JR和诺瓦克都能够在空位命中大量的投篮。” “[Miami] switched a lot,’’ Woodson added, “and they’re going to switch to him. That’s the right thing to do. And our pick and roll offense wasn’t as sharp as it will be this season. Nothing against [Mike] Bibby, but I like our new makeup.’’ 谈起上赛季的季後赛首轮，伍德森接着表示：“热火队的轮转换位很频繁，而我们在进攻 时的挡拆做得不够。我相信我们在新赛季一定会做得更好。” Armed with a long-term deal for the first time, Novak also has a entirely different perspective at this training camp, no longer wondering if he’ll make a team. He doesn’t want to grow complacent, however. “That’s the biggest thing I try to fight,’’ Novak said. “Because I never had that feeling. I always thought I might get cut, might not make a team, might not be good enough.’’ 诺瓦克得到了他职业生涯第一份长期合同，因此在训练营期间的表现格外投入和积极，他 不用再担心没有球队要他。当然，他也不会因此而产生自满的情绪。 “这是我一直以来奋斗的目标。我以前总是担心自己会被球队裁掉，或是自己不够出色。 ”诺瓦克说道。 原文来源：http://tinyurl.com/9sz8t7z 翻译参考：http://news.sina.com.tw/article/20121014/8046838.html http://sports.sohu.com/20121014/n354808752.shtml -- ─∥ ─── ◣ =◥"◥’． ∵ ◆∥ ψsherry821224 ────────────── ∥ ◤ ◥ ◤ ◥ ∥ ◤ ◢◤\ ◣◥ Teammates don't ∥ ╱ ∥◤￣◣ ﹍◣∥◤￣╲∥ ╱∥◤￣╲ ▼‵､λ﹀▼▼ play with each ∥◆◇ ∥ ∥∥◣∥ ∥╱ ∥◣＿ ─-.╳ ︶- other, they play ∥ ╲ ∥ ∥∥ ∥ ∥ ╲ ◥∥▲ ρ\ `, ▲▲ FOR each other. ─∥ ╲ ∥ ∥∥ ∥◣＿╱∥ ╲╲＿◢∥ ◥ | ◢────────…‥． --
