This must be another coaching record for Phil Jackson. Just one week into the regular season, he has already minted a catchy nickname for the Lakers' revamped group of reserves. 禅师在教练生涯又创下了一项纪录:开季一个星期就帮新的板凳组合起了新绰号 Meet the Renegades. They're the reason the two-time NBA champions might be a whole lot better this season. 叛逆者 而他们是让已经二连霸的湖人看起来更好的原因 Newcomers Steve Blake, Matt Barnes and Theo Ratliff have joined returnees Shannon Brown and Sasha Vujacic on a bench that already looks exponentially more reliable than last season's collection of castoffs and underachievers. What's more, they're still planning to add injured Luke Walton and sixth man Lamar Odom, currently a fill-in starter. 新来的小黑 咩棒 锅神加上原本的香浓 莎莎就已经比去年好上许多 不过湖人还有受伤的路克 以及被暂时拉上先发的LO "I like the way this group is coming together," Jackson said. "They have the potential to be very special." 禅师非常喜欢这个组合 他认为他们可以非常特别 The Lakers were top-heavy during their two title runs, but this team appears to have enviable balance. 前两年湖人的先发跟板凳实力差了一大截 不过今年看起来平衡许多 The unimpressive likes of Adam Morrison, Jordan Farmar and DJ Mbenga have been replaced by three tough NBA veterans with 29 combined seasons of experience. Blake, Barnes and Ratliff are former starters who swallowed their egos for the chance to join Kobe Bryant and Pau Gasol in another championship chase. 跟A-MO 农夫 班嘎比起来 新来的三位加起来已经在联盟打滚了29年 他们三位都曾经是先发球员 但如今却愿意与Kobe还有Pau一起为下一枚冠军戒努力 "Our bench is very solid, very solid," Bryant said after Sunday's 107-83 win over Golden State, moving the Lakers to 3-0. "They rarely make mistakes. They stay within the structure, and they play well together." 星期一赢球之後 Kobe说:"我们的板凳阵容十分坚强" "他们很少犯错 打得很有组织 然後一起打出一场好球赛" They also add hunger: None of the three newcomers has a championship ring, and all three looked on in envy when the nine returning Lakers received the spoils of last season's toils during last week's ring ceremony. 新来的三位也很饥渴 因为他们连一枚冠军戒都没有 而他们在开幕战还要看着队友领取去年的冠军戒 "Everybody knows that's the reason we're here, and that's the reason I chose the Lakers," said Barnes, the hard-nosed swingman and longtime Kobe antagonist who is becoming a confidante to the two-time Finals MVP. 一直都跟Kobe是死对头 但如今却成为队友的咩棒说: "大家都知道这是我们在这里的原因;而这也是我选择湖人的原因" Although Jackson slapped a couple of nicknames on his reserves during the past two title runs -- the Bench Mob, and later the Minutemen -- their struggles often forced the starters to play heavy minutes. Jackson already displays more confidence in his new bench, which scored 55 points in the Lakers' first two games before logging major minutes in the blowout win over the Warriors. 虽然禅师也给了前两年的板凳响亮亮的绰号---板凳暴徒跟Minutemen 不过他们不稳定的表现造成了先发需要负担更多的时间 (有谁听过Minutemen吗?) 今年禅师已经展现出对新板凳的信任:在前两场比赛得55分 第三场更以大比分打败勇士 "You can probably be a starter somewhere and not have a chance to play for a championship, or you can go to a situation where you have an opportunity to win," said Blake, the Lakers' most capable backup to point guard Derek Fisher in several years. "That's what they did in Miami, and that's what we're doing here, on a little different scale." 近年来最好的替补控卫小黑说: "你可以在其他球队先发却得不到胜利 或是到一支可以让你取得胜利的球队" "迈阿密的那些人这麽做 我们也是 不过等级不太相同 The common theme among the Renegades is hunger. While the 37-year-old Ratliff and Blake already have made good money, they need a ring to complete their well-traveled careers. Barnes and Brown are still chasing that big contract, and they believe it's easier to get when you're a winner. 外界对这些叛逆者的看法就是渴望 锅神跟小黑已经赚了不少钱 而他们只需要一枚戒指让自己的职业生涯更完美 至於咩棒跟香浓则仍在争取一纸大合约 而他们认为成为一名胜利者会让事情变得更简单 来源:http://0rz.tw/QpBQB ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 实在想不出Minutemen怎麽翻... --
