----------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://tinyurl.com/ylhvux Nuggets amazed by Iverson's boundless energy By Clay Latimer, Rocky Mountain News December 28, 2006 Yes, he played all but 12 minutes of two NBA games, moved his family cross country, attended three practices, celebrated Christmas and started learning a new playbook. All in five days. 　　他，几乎打满了整整两场比赛，带着他的家人远渡重洋来此，也参加了三次球队的 练习，并在此庆祝圣诞节以及开始学习这支新球队的种种。 　　而这一切，在短短五天之内完成。 But is Allen Iverson slowing down, worn down from his turbulent final days in Philadelphia and his manic pace in Denver, where thin air alone frazzles most newly arrived jocks? 　　告别了他在费城最後的疯狂岁月，他所带来的暴风缓慢的席卷丹佛--这个以 酷寒凛冽冷风磨损着新来球员的城市，使得战神脚步减慢了些？。 Not quite. 不，不是的。 As practice drifted to a close early Wednesday afternoon, Iverson, on his own, started running sprints at the Pepsi Center, less than 16 hours after scoring 28 points and handing out 13 assists while logging 44 minutes in the Nuggets' 116-105 win against the Boston Celtics. 　　当他翩然来到这个新球队周三下午的练习，他独自地开始短距离冲刺练习。不到 16个小时後，在同一个球场Pepsi Center，他上场44分钟拿下了28分并完成13次助攻， 帮助丹佛金块队以116比105打败了波士顿塞尔提克队。 "Surprised. It's probably more like amazed," Denver coach George Karl said about Iverson's energy. "In the two games I've played him, I think I've seen the guy get tired once - in the fourth quarter (Tuesday) he got tired a little. "There are certain guys, it's easy to play, it's easy to run. They don't get tired, and he's one of them. . . . I'm sure it's genetic." Added Iverson: "I want to play every game like it's my last." 　　"这真是令人惊讶！！甚至可以说，这太神奇了！！"赛後，金块队的教练卡尔先生 在见识了AI的无限能力後，几乎不可置信！"在这两场AI参与的比赛中，我想我只看到 他累了一次，在星期二比赛的第四节中，他只有一次似乎有一点疲累。" 　　"有一种球员：对他来说，掌控比赛是如此地简单，来回冲刺是如此地容易。而AI， 就是属於这种球员！！"卡尔说道："我确信，这是与生俱来的超能力。" 　　AI说过"我把每一场比赛，都当作最後一场比赛打！" 　　(os:某位神级球员似乎也说过这句话 XD) Iverson's size (small), natural energy level (boundless) and passion for the game (extreme) enable him to move relentlessly at a speed few can match for a quarter, much less an entire game. AI的个儿小，但他与生俱来的无限能量以及他对比赛的激情，每一场比赛都用尽全力 丝毫不保留的冲刺，这种拼命看来比较适合只打一节比赛(much less an entire game.) ，但他却拼了整场。(这段翻起来怎麽有点像糗爷...Orz) Against the Celtics, he drove, dished, shot, crashed the boards, crashed to the floor for loose balls and ran the break without coming close to breaking down. Even when Karl sat him for a brief breather, Iverson bounded off the bench to meet his new teammates at halfcourt after a timeout. "I don't like to sit on the bench anyway, I'd rather be on the court playing. I don't mind playing a lot of minutes at all," he said. 在那场对Celtics的战役中，他驾驭、他挫败、他射篮、他一次次的冲击篮板、一次 次的摔落在地板，只因为要抢到每一颗失控球。他因冲抢而跌倒，还来不及起身，他又 快速拼命地冲击跌落了一次，即使是卡尔教练喊个短暂停让他坐下喘口气，他一上场还 是以战神精神不停的跳跃鼓舞着他的新队友。 　　"无论如何，我都不想要乾坐在板凳上。我想要在场上奋斗。我一点都不在意上场时 间有多久"战神如是说。　　 Blockbuster trades frequently re- energize marquee players, enabling them to reframe their game or reputations, as Charles Barkley, Sha- quille O'Neal, Steve Nash and Jason Kidd revealed during the past decade or so. Iverson's exuberance is as obvious now as his despair was in his final months with the 76ers - especially when Nuggets fans stomp their approval at the Pepsi Center. 　　这种炸弹般的震撼交易，往往会使得球员的斗志再度被激起。使他们重新驾驭比赛 并重建名声。例子很多；Charles Barkley、 Sha- quille O'Neal、Steve Nash 和 Jason Kidd都是如此，他们在交易过後，持续统治了NBA十年(之类的时间，这只是个 比方啦)，当AI在费城度过了令人绝望的最後一个月後，如今战魂也明显的茂盛燃烧起 来，尤其是当他听到金块队球迷进场时所发出的脚步撞击声时，战神再起。(这段是在 写小说吗@@) "Every day he talks about how the atmosphere here is so different that what he came from," Nuggets center Marcus Camby said. "He comes out and he absorbs a lot of energy. "I'm definitely not surprised (with his stamina). These little guys can run all day; him and Earl Boykins never seem to run out of energy." "每天AI都在说这儿的气氛有多麽的特别"金块当家中锋Camby说："他的到来灌注了 许多能量，这其实是不需讶异的，(针对AI的超能力)。这几个小伙子可以一整天都在奔 跑而不会累；他跟Boykins都是，他们的精力永远用不完。"　 　　 In fact, Iverson led the NBA in minutes (43.1 minutes) last season, an honor as routine for him as a crossover dribble. 　　事实上，AI上一个球季每场球上场43分钟，是全NBA的持久王。如同crossover一般 ，持久就像吃饭喝水一样轻而易举。　>////< 　 "Larry (Brown) said if you take him out for a minute, he'll swear at you," said Nuggets assistant coach Doug Moe, who chatted with former 76ers coach Brown before the trade for Iverson. "He's rare. To go that much and that hard - offhand, I can't tell you of a player who needed less rest. And it's not like we're talking about a guy who's 20, or a guy who's dogging it. Michael Adams could go and play, but Iverson's unique in that he's a superstar who has all the attention on him. It's tough." 　　"Larry Brown跟我说，你让AI下场一分钟，他就会诅咒你。"金块队助理教练 Doug Moe说道。Doug Moe在AI交易之前曾经跟Brown闲聊过。 　　"他是罕见的一号人物，愈爬愈高、愈挫愈勇。我无法告诉你为何他永不需休息， 而且我们不是在谈论一个20岁的年轻人，或是一个专会追踪他人的人。(这句我不太懂@@) Michael Adams也能这样子打球，但AI的独特之处在於他是个巨星，全场的焦点都在 他身上。这是坚韧的精神。 Actually, Iverson revels in the whirlwind, according to Pat Croce, the 76ers president and part owner when Iverson was drafted out of Georgetown. "He's a hurricane of activity. He thrives on chaos, in life, on the street, on the court. And there's no on/off button," he told The Philadelphia Daily News after the trade. 　　AI为整个NBA带来了旋风，在这场交易过後七六人队的总理暨股东之一Pat Croce 在Philadelphia Daily News上说:"他是具有超级活力的飓风，在一片混沌当中，在人们 的生活中，在大街小巷，在所有球场，他兴盛了起来。他没有任何的开关(可以关闭他)"　　 During his final month in Philadelphia, Iverson spent six games on the inactive list and was essentially banned from practice, the ultimate indignity for a man who can't even abide riding the pine. "I think everyone knows how much I love being out on the court, competing and winning," he said in a release on his Web site after the trade. "That's why it was so disheartening to be told that I couldn't play, knowing that I was ready. "It hurt even more to be told not to come at all." AI在费城的最後一个月中，有六场比赛他都被列在不出赛名单，而且完全被禁止参与 球队练习，这对一个渴望上场的人而言，是最大的侮辱了。 　　"我想所有人都知道我是如何热爱上场比赛，跟对手竞争并赢得胜利。"交易过後， AI在他的网页上留言"这就是为什麽当他们告知我不得再比赛时，我会如此气馁，他们 完全清楚我可以上场奋斗的。" 　　"更夸张的是，他们甚至叫我乾脆不用来了！！" The Nuggets appear willing to accommodate in unprecedented ways. In fact, to encourage his fast-forward play in games, they plan to cut him some slack in practice. "Larry told me he won't want to practice," Moe said. "That's fine with me and I think it's fine with George. We'll try and get him as much rest as we can. He is getting older. Believe me, when you play so many games, and you're playing that many minutes and that hard - well, all he's going to be doing in practice is shooting or walking through." 　　而另一端金块队，显然十分乐意去适应这种史无前例的时刻到来！ 　　事实上，为了支持AI的快速打法，他们还计画减低一些练习中的缓慢项目。 　　"Larry Brown跟我说，他不需要练习"Moe说道："这对我跟卡尔教练都是好事，我们 会尽可能让他得到更多的休息，毕竟他也渐渐地年纪大了。相信我们，当你需要打那麽多 场比赛，并在每一场比赛中上场超多时间，那麽在练习时，你就只需要稍微投投篮跟跑跑 步。" -- 这篇的英文形容词很绝妙，不太容易翻@@　翻得不好请见谅 --
