The performance from the undrafted guard who was cut by the lowly Brooklyn Nets earlier this season has earned him a pending two-year deal with the Mavericks. 再与小牛签了10天短约後，控卫Yogi Ferrell已经造成一股旋风-油鸡疯。期间，小牛队 取得4胜0败的成绩，包含击败马刺和骑士。这位经历选秀落榜及被篮网裁的後卫，最近 的表现为他争到的了一纸两年的合约。 Here are 10 things for you to know about Ferrell now that it looks like he is set to stay in Dallas. 这里有10件事可以让你更加了解Ferrell。看起来他很适合留在达拉斯。 1.The basics: Full name: Kevin 'Yogi' Ferrell Born: May 9, 1993 Birthplace: Greenfield, Indiana Height: 6'0" Weight: 180 pounds (as listed by the Dallas Mavericks) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yogi_Ferrell 2.How did he get the nickname Yogi? From a 2013 profile done by USA TODAY Sports' Zak Keefer, Ferrell earned the nickname 'Yogi' from his mother as a toddler because "he had an affinity for picnic baskets like the cartoon character Yogi Bear." 2.绰号的由来 "Yogi"这的绰号是油鸡妈给他取的，当油鸡还在学走路时，超级喜欢野餐篮，就像 卡通人物Yogi Bear一样。( https://tinyurl.com/h3mf9vm ) 3.Early notice Ferrell was ranked as the top fourth grader in the country by The Hoop Scoop, a college basketball scouting service, in 2004. It came with so much attention that his parents took him out of AAU basketball for a time because "he was getting a big head and he was still small so a lot of kids were trying to beat up on him to make a name for themselves," The Indianapolis Star's Zach Osterman said in a recent Q&A with SportsDay. 3.小时了了 Ferrell在2004年时被The Hoop Scoop(篮球杂志，也做球员探查)评为全国小学四年级 中最佳的篮球员。这让他获得非常多的关注。当地媒体The Indianapolis Star的 Zach Osterman在SportsDay Q&A中提到，"为此，他的父母不让他参加AAU(美国业余 运动联盟)的比赛，以避免他头重脚轻，太过自负。而且当时Ferrell年纪还小，许多 孩子会想藉着击败他而出名。" 4.High school standout Ferrell won two 2A IHSSA State Championships in Indiana at Park Tudor, a small private school that had no basketball history before Ferrell made his mark. He was a McDonald's All-American, and was Indiana's Mr. Basketball runner-up in 2012. His high school coach was Ed Schilling, a former John Calipari assistant at Memphis who is currently on the UCLA staff. 4.中学成就 中学时期，Ferrell为母校Park Tudor赢得两次印第安那州2A级别的州冠军。在此之前 Park Tudor是一间篮球默默无名的学校。此外，他还是麦当劳全美高中明星一球员， 也在印州的篮球先生奖项中荣获第二名。 5.Hoosier legend* Because of his high school career in Indiana, a state as obsessed with high school hoops as Texas is with football, Ferrell arrived at Indiana with with some high expectations. By the time he graduated in 2016, Ferrell had established himself in the IU record books as the storied program's all-time assists and games played leader. He cemented his legacy with a game-clinching shot against Iowa to win the Big Ten title in his senior season. 5.大学传奇* 由於油鸡中学皆是待在印第安纳州，一个以中学篮球闻名的州(就像德州之於美式足球)， 因此，Ferrell为印大带来了许多期待。2016年，当他从大学毕业时，他已经是校史的 助攻王，出场数也是历届最多。二年级时击败Iowa的致胜球为他的大学生涯多添一记好 球，也使他成为the Big Ten。( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dd-O5svXOX8 ) 6.Misstep If there was a mistake Ferrell made in college, it was when he was arrested after his sophomore season for underage drinking and trying to use a fake ID to get into a bar. Ferrell would later apologize for the incident, which took place a month before his 21st birthday. "I learned a lot. I learned that my actions are my myself as if someone has been watching me. I feel like I have turned a new leaf," said Ferrell at the time. 6.犯错 如果要说Ferrell在大学时期有哪里犯了错，那就是他在二年级时，因为未满21岁使用 酒精和企图持假身分证进入酒吧而被逮捕。油鸡後来为此事件道歉。当时他再过一个月 即将满21岁。Ferrell说道，"我从中学习到很多，了解到要端正自身的行为，就像有人 在看着我一样。这个教训让我改过自新。" ( https://tinyurl.com/zregoxk ) 7.Family support?* As mentioned above, Ferrell's parents didn't want him to get a big head when he was young wunderkid in the hoops scene. That carried over when he was a Hoosier star as his family created some hilarious shirts joking about his superstar status at Indiana. Ferrell was more curious than frustrated after the shirts came out, telling USA TODAY Sports, "I thought they were going to wear the same ones. They didn't? I guess I'll have to see what they say now. I'm interested to see what they say!" 7.家人的支持?* 如前面所提到的，油鸡的父母不希望他少年得志而有大头症。大学时也一样，当他成为 Hoosier的英雄时，他的家人还会特制了一些有趣的T-shirt开他小玩笑。但Ferrell并 不会因此沮丧反倒对此感到好奇，"我以为他们会穿之前的，没有吗?。那我想我必须去 了解一下他们说了些甚麽，我很感兴趣(指衣服上的对话)。" https://tinyurl.com/jckfjq8 (真是奇怪的一家人~) 8.Runs in the family* Comedy appears to run in the Ferrell family. Just look at some of Ferrell's Instagram posts, like this one where he jokes about fishing with gummy worms as bait trying to catch SpongeBob SquarePants and Patrick Star. 8.家庭剧场* 油鸡的家中经常上演搞笑喜剧。看看油鸡在IG的po文就知道，他以粘性蠕虫(软糖?)做 鱼饵想要钓海绵宝宝和派大星。 9.Imitation is best kind of flattery* And Ferrell likes to imitate the greats. During the Mavericks' win over the Trail Blazers on Friday he pulled out a Michael Jordan-esque shrug and then after the game made Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott's trademark eating celebration. 9.模仿是最佳奉承* 此外，油鸡喜欢模仿名人。在小牛击败拓荒者的比赛，他做出MJ的耸肩动作；而赛後 又学起牛仔队跑卫Ezekiel Elliott的招牌动作，eating celebration。 10.Rap shoutout You know you've made it as a basketball player when you get a shoutout from a rapper, right? Well, sort of. Rapper Wale name dropped Ferrell in one of his latest songs and it wasn't exactly a compliment to the new Maverick. In the song "Folarin Like," Wale criticizes those comparing himself to other rappers by saying, "That's like comparing Yogi Berra and Yogi Ferrell." For his part, Ferrell took it in stride and acted like it was a compliment on Twitter. 10.被大声唱出 你知道的，当球员的名字被饶舌歌手唱出时，那他算是一名成功的篮球员了。对吧?至少 有那麽点儿吧。饶舌歌手Wale将Ferrell写进他最新的歌曲里，虽然不是在称赞这位新小 牛球员。Wale是在批评那些拿他和其他饶舌歌手做比较的人，讽刺这就像是拿Yogi Berra 与Yogi Ferrell做比较。不过油鸡对此不以为意，反而将这看似Twitter上的赞美。 Yogi Berra: MLB名人堂，球员生涯主要效力洋基。10次冠军、3次MVP、14次All-Star。 这边Yogi也是nickname。後面几项感觉硬是要凑齐10件事... *表示网站有贴图或影片 翻译有误或是可以更好，也欢迎推文讨论。 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~欢迎油鸡加入小牛~ 感觉他很爱搞笑，这样很合球队的风气! 大学念了四年，是因为他想要为IU夺得一座冠军。(忘记在哪看到原文了) 这种大学经验丰富而且曾经独当一面的老菜鸟，应该不会被卡帅冰吧。 Let's Go Mavs! --
