PORTLAND, Ore. -- The old head seems to be playing the long game, at least for now. 自称老鸟的那位似乎现阶段走的是耐性风～ That's what LeBron James was doing Tuesday night, and perhaps more nights in the near future, when the Portland Trail Blazers whipped the Cleveland Cavaliers so heartily (101-82 was the final) that the white flag was out midway through the fourth quarter. Lebron礼拜二就是这样做的，或许可预见的未来他也都会这样做： 当波特兰鞭打Cavs的小屁屁时，差不多第四节中段就举白旗惹～ James pulled up even earlier, jogging through his final shift of the night watching his younger teammates bomb away indiscriminately and generally showing zero interest in fighting. It's an interesting strategy and not one James has relied upon in the past, when he's usually dealt with intra-team frustration by pulling on a cape and trying to heroball his way through it. Lebron则更早从比赛中跳出了:退场前最後几波都做旁观者，看着 年轻的队友们如何猛丢炸弹，基本上看不出他有任何想要一战的兴趣。 这是一个很有趣的策略，至少不是我们所认识的Lebron所会做的。 我们较习惯看到Lebron在球队陷入困难时，把披风披上开始打英雄球的他。 This time he just walked quietly to the bench when his coach, David Blatt, called timeouts to stem the bleeding. When his night was over, James picked the final seat on the bench and was into the tunnel shortly after the final horn. 但是这一次他则是安静的走向板凳区，当他的教练还在试着想要止血。 当他第四节被换下场时，他选择坐在板凳末端，并且在比赛一结束 就默默地走向出口。 In recent days there have been growing questions as to whether James might be hurt -- he has dealt with some minor back soreness -- or in some way suddenly physically diminished because at times he has looked lackluster. 最近开始有不少声音怀疑Lebron是否受伤了？毕竟他的确有背伤， 或是因为某种原因Lebron突然不生化了，毕竟他最近打得一点都不屌。 That is not the case at all. 实则不然（完全跟身体状态无关）。 This is a conscious decision on how he plans to operate in a passive-aggressive mission to yank some teammates toward his way of thinking. Let some of them fail at their way so they will be open to new ideas, is what it looks and sounds like. 这是一个有计划性，深思熟虑过後的决定。他决定用消极抵抗的方式 来渐渐潜移默化他的队友: 让他们用他们自己的方式失败後，他们 就会接受新的意见了。 这看起来和听起来就是Lebron在做的。 "Everyone wants to win, I would hope," James said. "Would you rather play selfish basketball and lose, or play unselfish basketball and sacrifice and win? So you pick it." LBJ「每个人都想赢，至少我希望啦，所以重点是你愿意选择 打得自私然後输球，亦或是打的无私，牺牲，然後赢球呢？ 所以你可以选择。」 This style of leadership is not part of James' typical nature and it wouldn't be like him to keep it up very long. More likely, frustrated by the way the game unfolded as the Cavs' offense collapsed into one-on-one ball, this was his way of counting to 10 to calm down. 这种(消极型)领导方式并不是Lebron的本性，而他也不像是能维持 这样做很久的人。这比较像是在大比分落後时依然看到在进攻端只会打 一对一篮球的骑士队，Lebron让自己冷静下来的一种尝试。 It's interesting that this took place in Portland. A few years ago, when he was being booed regularly on the road for the first time in his life, James stood on the court of what was then called the Rose Garden and incited the crowd to boo him as he led a comeback win. He said after the game he accepted the villain role going forward. 很有趣的是当初2010年，Lebron在Portland玫瑰花园主场用一己之力 逆转战局後，向观众做出挑衅手势并且赛後号称自己之後要做大魔头(villain) 时有如此的不同。 Within days, he'd abandoned that because that is not him. Neither, however, is this. This is not the way James sets an example. 当然他之後马上就放弃了这头衔并且说不符自己的本性， 但是现在的他也不是他，这不是他一贯树立榜样的方式。 And not what Blatt, who is thrashing around a bit in the deep end of his first NBA season as he struggles with basic rotations and player motivation, needs from him, either. Though it has not been hard to miss, James so far seems to be lacking chemistry with his new coach, another of those annoying factors that goes into starting over with a new team. 这样做也不是Blatt需要的Lebron。不难发现Lebron和新教头还没有太多 化学效应，没办法，加入一个新的团队时总会遇到这些恼人的问题。 It must be said James has been preparing for these days and, it can be assumed, he's put thought into how to handle them. He certainly has been talking about his expectations of early struggles for the Cavs for months. 我们可以肯定地说Lebron准备这天的到来已经很久了。 甚至可以想见他很认真的考虑过要怎麽处理这段磨合期。 他也很明确的谈过很多次他预期骑士队将要面对的困难和挣扎。 This is what James said in July when he signed: Lebron在七月签约时就说过： "It will be a long process, much longer than it was in 2010. My patience will get tested. I know that. I'm going into a situation with a young team and a new coach. I will be the old head." 「这会是个漫长的路，比2010年要长的多。我的耐性会受到测试。 我知道。我将要去和一个年轻的球队和一个菜鸟教头。我会是个老鸟。」 This is what he said when the Cavs were in the middle of a promising 5-2 preseason, when their offense flowed like water and they widened their lead at the top of the odds-makers' charts: 他在看似顺利的季前赛时也重复了这段话，即使很多球评都很嗨的把 骑士队放在夺冠热门球队。 "You've got to go through something to create a bond; that means for the worse. It has to happen. I know it is going to happen. A lot of guys don't see it, but I see it. That's the only way we're going to be able to grow. You don't define yourself during the good times, you define yourself through the bad times. That's for the players and the coaching staff, as well." 「你必须要经历过困难才能建立起各种连结。这是必要的过程。 我知道将会发生。很多人看不到，但是我看得到。这是我们进步唯一 的方式。人在过太爽的时候没办法给自己有正确的定位，只有在困难 的时候你才更了解自己。对球员和对教练团而言亦然。」 And this was what James said Tuesday with the Cavs sitting at 1-2, the victory thanks to James' heroics and some Chicago Bulls injuries last week: 而这是他现在说的话： "It's going to be a long process, man. There's been a lot of losing basketball around here for a few years. ... But there's a lot of bad habits, a lot of bad habits have been built up over the last couple of years, and when you play that style of basketball it takes a lot to get it up out of you. But I'm here to help, and that's what it's about." 「这将会是个很长的过程。在这里输球已经成为习惯。但是同时间 也有很多坏习惯被建立了。当你这样打球时，你很难把坏习惯赶出去。 但是我这不是来帮忙了吗，这才是最重要的。」 On this front, at least, he has been consistent, unlike his defensive efforts in the early going, when at times he has just waved at the ball as it's been driven by him. He may be in great shape but his effort level is far from midseason form. 所以至少他从七月以来的tone调都是一致的。至少比他在防守端花的 精力一致。他或许体态维持的很好，但是他的努力程度则遥遥不及 Nonetheless, he apparently has something up his sleeve. He's working on delivering some sort of message. 不过不论如何，他还是有要干什麽事的。他在找方法传递他的讯息 给队友们。 His references to breaking bad habits from recent losing seasons seem rather obviously aimed at teammates Kyrie Irving and Dion Waiters, the pair of high draft picks who spent the previous two seasons tugging at the ball. 当他提到要破除坏习惯时，很明显他说的就是KI和DW，这两个高顺位新秀 在前两年互抢一颗球。 As James stood passively and watched as the Blazers extended their lead in the second half, Waiters and Irving dribbled and dribbled and shot and shot. They had 19 shots in the second half, James had four. He was scoreless in the second half and put up just two points after the first quarter. To put that in perspective, he hadn't scored two points in three quarters since the 19th game of his career back in December 2003. 当Lebron被动地站着并且看着拓荒者在下半场拉开差距的那段时间， DW和KI两人轮流运着球，一球接着一球的自干。这两人下半场就干了 19球，Lebron只有四球。他在下半场没有得分，而且在第一节後 只得了2分。如果要说这有多夸张，只要告诉你Lebron生涯三节只得 2分的场次要追溯到他生涯的第19场比赛，2003年的十二月。 "My mission is not a one-game thing," James explained. "We have to do multiple things in order to win. We got to share the ball. We got to play defense. We got to sacrifice in order to ultimately win. And obviously when you're going through the process, it's not the best part of the process, but I'm looking at the end of the tunnel." 「我的任务不是只有一场，我们必须要做好很多事情才能赢。 我们必须要分享球权。我们必须要防守，我们必须要牺牲才能赢球。 而很明显的你必须要经历过这一整段过程，而过程往往并不是最让人享受的 但是我看到的是山洞後的光明天地。」 The end of the tunnel might be a ways off. When questioned about what he sees as the timeline before the Cavs start playing more like a contender, James offered something both real and metaphoric. 要过完山洞感觉还要一段时间。当被问到他认为骑士要花多久时间 才能变成强队时，Lebron提供了一个确切的答案外加一个譬喻。 "It could go on for a couple months until we're all on the same page," James said and then compared what he has going through now to when he undertook the rebuilding of a 1972 Chevy Caprice Classic from the wheels up. It took numerous trips to the paint shop before it was James' desired shade of baby blue. 「大概好歹也要两个月我们大家才能有所竞争力吧」 Lebron并且开始叙述他怎麽改造他1972年的一台Chevy老车，并且认为 改一台车都要跑body shop跑了好几次，估计球队要成为劲旅也要一定时程。 It's not just a "shots for James" vs. a "shots for Irving, Waiters or Kevin Love" issue. Though it should be pointed out that Irving was 3-of-17 Tuesday and then bolted the locker room before offering comment about it in another not-exactly-desirable show of leadership. 我们并不是在讨论谁要投几球的问题。但是也不能否认KI在比赛中 投17进3，并且在赛後直奔休息室逃避记者访问也一样不是一个好的 领导者该有的态度。 The young Cavs have no interest in passing the ball to veterans such as Mike Miller, who has one 3-point attempt in three games, or Shawn Marion, who seems to only get passes from James. And now the team has its first injury as backup guard Matthew Dellavedova tweaked his knee Tuesday and could be out a little while, though the team did not announce his injury. 骑士队的年轻球员似乎并没有传球的兴趣，MM三场比赛只得到一次出手机会， 香妹似乎只拿的到LBJ的传球。而现在骑士队有了第一个伤兵-Dellavedova。 No matter how it's parsed, the Cavs are going to need a lot better teamwork and a vast amount more effort before a discussion about their long-term goals can truly be had. This is something that James must understand when looking in the mirror as well as when giving sideways glances and speeches in team meetings as he applies his methods for whipping the team into the shape he's looking for. 不管你怎麽看，骑士队要有更多的团队合作，和巨量的努力，才能把它们 自己放到竞争者的位置上看。而LBJ自己也必须要了解，并且要看看自己 ，不要只会在球场上被动抗议，或是光说不练。 （译按：被动抗议的确是方法之一，不过以身作则也同样很重要） It's also something Irving, Waiters and even Blatt -- who has seemingly gotten lost in the game at times in his first week doing the real job -- must come to grips with. James is trying to play chess, but the entire team could use a few games of basic checkers, too. 当然其他人-KI, DW甚至Blatt-这几个在第一周表现不好的人，也必须 要能抓紧Lebron所要传达的讯息和所用的方法。 Lebron试着要下出一盘好棋，不过别忘了偶而也可以用几场比赛 达到将军的效果。 "It's going to be a process. I keep on harping on that word, but it's the truth," James said. "I've been there before and understand it. But you do have to go through it even though you don't like to go through it." Lebron再次强调 「这将会是个漫长的路程。我知道我不断重复同样的话，但是这就是事实， 我曾经到过那，并且了解。但是你必须要经历过才会知道，即使你并不想 经历这一段。」 ＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝ 心得： Lebron开季就打得如此被动的确少见，要说他是passive-aggressive也是 很有可能。不过同结论说的，不要做的太过头，偶而披上披风打打英雄球 还是必要的一种手段。 ^^ 不能因为自己经历过，就打得懒懒的～ --
