Steve Nash is comfortable in Phoenix. Maybe too comfortable. 老大在凤凰城的日子过得很爽,但或许太过了 He ranks among the most popular players in the history of a feel-good franchise, and his comments carry great weight on Planet Orange. 老大对一些在母队过得很爽的知名球星做了些评论 ,而他本人则对凤凰城评价很高 What if he spoke up forcefully when we needed him most, when owner Robert Sarver put on the blinders and refused to pay market value for Amar'e Stoudemire? 但如果当初他对老板装瞎忽视Amare价值行为作出建言的话呢? Answer: Maybe the Suns wouldn't be missing the playoffs. 太阳应该就不会失去季後赛机会了 I know some people want to feel good about the Suns' 106-103 season-ending victory over the Spurs. It prevented a symbolic series sweep from San Antonio, and denied our rivals home-court advantage through the NBA playoffs. Aesthetically, it made the final standings look a little better. 有人觉得最後一场那样干掉马刺很爽,但这不过是避免被整季横扫而且让他们失去主场优 势罢了。虽然这样让战积图看起来爽多了... It's like getting a D on your report card. Anything less than 40 wins, and you're a failure, a bottom feeder. 少於四十胜就像是学期末被当,不及格就是不及格!!!! It also was a moment of great sadness, proof of how good the Suns could have been had they not disposed of their All-Star power forward. It doesn't matter if you think Stoudemire was worth the money or not. It doesn't matter if Sarver had legitimate concerns about the player's long-term health. 这是很令人伤心的时刻 ,而且证明了明星大前对这里有多重要 ,这跟钱多不多无关 更跟$arver所谓的长期健康无关 This is all about philosophy and planning, front-burner subjects now that the Suns have completed their fall from grace. (不懂) 这只跟建队哲学跟计画有关。 When you have a legitimate championship window, you must keep it open at all costs, and deal with the expense later. Jerry Colangelo has taken significant grief for his spending habits while leading the Diamondbacks to the only major professional sports championship in this region. Major League Baseball still holds a grudge, and yet what Arizona fan wouldn't want him back in charge of the organization today? 当你有机会拿冠军时 ,你应该不计代价好好留住 ,之後再讨论钱 Jerry Colangelo对他的花钱习惯感到十分懊悔,因为亚利桑那地区只有MLB的响尾蛇队拿 过冠军 ,该地乡民因此对他抱持着一定的怨恨 ,但什麽让乡民们想让他回来呢? (其实这段不太了解 没什麽在看棒球@__@) With Stoudemire, the Suns nearly forged an upset of the Lakers in the 2010 Western Conference finals. Without him, they are a lottery team. The facts are indisputable, and the blame ultimately rests on one person: the businessman running a basketball team, even though I'm sure Sarver wouldn't let an NBA executive run one of his banks. 无疑的 ,少了Amare的太阳只是支乐透球队。眼下乡民的愤怒通通出在了那个把球队当银 经营的人身上 Sarver paid a lot of money for this franchise. He also inherited a great situation, a team on the cusp of its first NBA championship, only to burn through three general managers in five years; low-ball and lose two All-Star players; and turn last year's fairy tale into a losing operation. $arver付了很多钱 ,从小柯手上接到了一个优良的球队－－一支可以争夺总冠军的球队 但一切都在五年撤换三任GM中渐渐崩坏。失去两名全明星 ,甚至把去年的余晖弄成这付 德行 Championships are about short-term commitment, and that's where Sarver let all of us down. The open window was there, and the owner slammed it shut. That's the legacy of the 2010-11 Suns. 冠军注重的是短期的冲刺 ,但$arver就是在这点让我们不爽。机会就在那里 ,而他就这 随手一敲就直接毁灭了 ,这就是10-11太阳所留下的 But what if Nash had called BS somewhere before the end of the previous season? What if he and Grant Hill - unquestioned leaders of the team and men with impeccable credentials - weren't so diplomatic, tactful and concerned with being good employees? What if they weren't so respectful of authority? 但如果当初老大骂了声「靠X」呢? 如果Hill老伯没这麽温和呢? What if this team had kept Stoudemire and pulled off a trade for Marcin Gortat? 如果当初留下Amare且把锅贴弄来呢 (作者是乡民啊 而且有Amare就不会有火枪来交易= =) That team could've won an NBA championship. 我们可能会赢冠军 A long time ago, Nash was brash with his opinions. He wore a controversial T-shirt to the 2003 NBA All-Star Game, one that read, "No war - Shoot for peace." It was a public stance against the war in Iraq, and Nash was mocked by the masses, from a former naval officer (David Robinson) to those who thought a Canadian shouldn't tell Americans what to do. 很久以前 ,老大也曾经为反战穿了件极争议的T恤进ASG(No war - Shoot for peace) 这让社会大众嘲笑很久－－加拿大人管什麽美国事？ Never mind that Nash proved to be right. 但老大最後是对的 At the lowest points of the season, Nash let some of the frustration spill out of his mouth. In the past, he's made references to the financial priorities in Phoenix, and how the economics are different in championship cities. But he's never called out the owner by name, just like he never calls out a teammate in public settings. 在季末时 ,老大口中吐出了些许失望。但在过去他会指出冠军队的薪资状态跟我们有何不 同,但他现在却不直呼老板名讳 To him, that would be bad form, counterintuitive to the team-building process, and none of our business. 他现在觉得球队运作不关他的事 Except it's our basketball team, and will be long after Sarver is gone. 这是我们的球队 ,即使是$arver走後 Maybe that happens soon. By the time the 2011-12 season commences, the new collective-bargaining agreement surely will be tilted toward owners. Maybe the economy is much improved. And at that point, Sarver won't have Stoudemire's giant contract on the books, a contract that would've been a medical risk. The team might be very appealing to potential buyers. 也许很快会发生 ,11-12开始时新的CBA会倾向资方。或许经济会变好 ,到那时又没有巨型 合约 ,到时太阳可能会有些潜在买家 We could only be so lucky. 这样的话我们就真的很幸运 Read more: http://tinyurl.com/3pjvh9a 本来以为是专业文 结果是外国乡民的牢骚心得文 大家可以看看骂$arver的地方爽一爽XD --
