They needed someone to speak up during a time-out and shake the team from its funk. 在星期天傍晚的比赛第三节时，活塞一度落後芝加哥公牛多达16分。他们需要某个人 在暂停时挺身而出，说一些提振士气的话，让球队可以重振旗鼓。 Usually, that duty would fall to team captain Chauncey Billups or coach Flip Saunders, who did his part by inserting Jason Maxiell into the game and switching to a zone defense. 通常，那个责任会落在球队队长枪蜥或是已经尽到应负责任，即时将J.Maxiell换上场 并把防守阵势调整为区域防守的总教练老桑身上。 But it was newcomer Chris Webber who stepped in and got everyone's attention. 但这次是新成员C.Webber跳了出来并得到了每个人的注意力。 "He said to guys, 'Hey, we're going to get this thing going, and we're going to win this thing,' " Saunders said. "I mean, he didn't just say it. Sometimes guys just say it, and it's like, 'Yeah, OK.' But this, you could tell he meant it -- we were going to get it going, we were going to win it." "他向队友们说，'嘿，我们要拿出应有的表现，并赢得这场比赛，'"老桑说。"我是说 ，他不只是打嘴炮而已。有时候某些家伙只是随口说说，就像是，'Yo man，没问题吧。' 但他不一样，你可以听得出来他是认真的 -- 我们要拿出应有的表现，并赢得比赛。" The Pistons won. And since Webber's arrival, that has been the norm. 活塞最终夺回了比赛胜利。而自从Webber加入之後活塞就胜多败少，获胜似乎已经变 成了一种常态。 While Saunders has done plenty of gushing about Webber's passing, he became the latest disciple of another trait -- leadership -- on Sunday. 尽管老桑已经多次赞扬Webber精湛的传球功夫，他在星期天成了最近一个折服在 Webber另一项过人特质 -- 领导能力 -- 之下的信徒。 "He's shown very, very good leadership qualities," Saunders said. "You have to respect a guy coming into a situation where you have a lot of guys who have been here and have had success. He's not afraid to speak his mind and say, ' Here's what we need to do.' " "他展现了相当，相当出色的领导能力，"老桑说。"你不得不尊敬这样一个甫加入一支 已经存在多年并证明过拥有夺冠实力的队伍之中便能立即展现领导能力的好家伙。他不害 怕把他的内心话说出来，像是'这就是我们需要做的'之类的话。" Webber often has been that guy during his career. From his high school days at Birmingham Detroit Country Day to his infamous run at the University of Michigan, to the Golden State Warriors, Washington Bullets, Sacramento Kings and Philadelphia 76ers, Webber was typically the leader in the locker room and on the floor. 篮球生涯一路走来Webber总是扮演着领导者的脚色。从他在底特律伯明罕就读高中时 开始，到他留下不名誉纪录的密西根大学期间，再到进入NBA後的金州勇士、华盛顿子弹、 沙加缅度国王和前一支球队费城七六人，Webber总是在球员休息室和球场上扮演着球队领 袖的脚色。 "Back then, so much of the weight was on him," said Pistons assistant coach Terry Porter, who worked with Webber in Sacramento. "He was kind of the face of the franchise. He was expected every night to set the tone. Here, he doesn't have to worry about that. We have so many other guys who can take the load off his shoulders." "当时，有太多太多的责任压在他的肩上，"和Webber曾经在沙加缅度共事过的助理教 练T.Porter说。"他就是球队的代表人物，他被期待在每晚的比赛中都是担任球队寻求胜利 的基石。在这里，他不需要担心这种事，球队阵中有太多能够帮他分摊肩上重责大任的好 球员了。" Webber can pick his spots to speak, like he did during that time-out. And most liberating of all is that he can do most of his leading by example. He did that Sunday, too, when he played despite pregame nausea and irritation in his scratched eye. Webber可以选择适当的时间再发言，就像他在那个暂停时所做的一样。而他所得到最 大的自由莫过於在大部分的时间只要以身作则就能展现他的领导能力。他在星期天也做到 了，因为他无视於赛前反胃、恶心以及被抓伤的眼睛等身体不适，仍旧拿出了21分、9篮板 (其中有5个是进攻篮板)、3抄截的好表现。 It's a great relief for a player who's used to carrying a heavier burden. 那对一个过去必须肩负更多球队胜败重任的球员来说只能用如释重负来形容。 "It feels really good to be with a group of guys you can trust and go to war with," Webber said. "I just feel like I need to be myself. ... It feels good to be a part of (a group) who, any time, (anyone) can step up and be a leading scorer, anyone can step up and be a vocal leader, (anyone) can get in your face ." "能跟这样一群可以完全信任的家伙一起奋斗真的让人觉得很舒服，"Webber说。"我觉 得只要做自己。...这是一支随时，任何人都勇於首当其冲接下头号得分手的责任，任何人 都可以负责发言鼓舞士气，或当你不小心犯错，任何人都能当面告诉你哪里还有改进的空 间的球队，成为其中的一份子真的让人觉得很棒。" Pistons vice president of basketball operations John Hammond said that Webber has fit in just as well off the court as he has on it. He called him a no-maintenance player who shows up on time, does what he's asked to do and has infused the team with positivity through his "unselfish spirit." 活塞篮球事务副总J.Hammond表示Webber在场外跟在场上一样和大家相处都很融洽。他 说Webber是一个毫不保留的好球员，他总是准时现身并尽力做到他被交付的任务，而且他 "无私的奉献精神"带给球队相当正面的影响。 It reminds him very much of another midseason Pistons addition. 这一切让他不禁回想起另一次活塞在季中所做的绝佳补强。 "We keep saying that's exactly what Rasheed (Wallace) did when he came here in '04," Saunders said. "Our team was playing well, and it was a good fit, but there still was a piece missing, and I think Rasheed was that missing piece, not because of the player but because of the person, because of the unselfish spirit. "我们一直都认为那就像是溪蛙在'04年加入时带给球队的(正面影响)，"老桑说。"我 们球队原本表现就不错，但总觉得还缺少一点什麽，而我认为溪蛙就是遗落的那块总冠军 拼图，并不是因为他的球技，更因为他这个人，以及他无私的牺牲奉献精神。" "And the same exact thing has happened with Chris. He's been a great fit on the floor, but as much as anything, he brings a great unselfish spirit. As you can see every time he catches the ball on the floor, looking to pass, looking to make someone else better." "而Webber的加入也带来了几乎一模一样的正面效益。他在场上和其他人搭配地天衣无 缝，但最重要的还是他所带来的无私精神。就像你每次看到的，他在场上拿到球并不会急 着出手，反而会先观察其他队友是否有更好的出手机会，并伺机将球传到对方手上。" And looking to speak up and be a leader, too. 而且在适当的时机做出适当的发言并且也能当一位好的领导者。 "Guys respect his comments," Porter said. "He's been around the game. He's been on some good teams. So everyone respects what his basketball IQ is and what he has to say." "大家都很尊重他的言论，"Porter说。"他已经在球场打滚好一阵子，也待过某几支强 队。所以每个人都敬重他的篮球智商还有他所说的话。" --
