https://goo.gl/MH4Uda The Pistons knew what they were getting in Avery Bradley. 活塞知道他们能从Bradley那得到什麽 A quiet leader. A defensive hound. A tough-as-nails competitor. 一个沉默的领袖，一个防守中坚份子，一个像钉子一样强悍的竞争者。 They couldn’t have predicted it’d pay dividends so soon. 活塞可能没料到这个红利来的这麽快。 “In the pickup games we’ve been playing he brings the whole intensity up,” said Ish Smith on Monday, the eve of training camp. “Leadership doesn’t mean you have to be the loudest, doesn’t mean you have to tell everybody what to do. Sometimes you just do it by example, and he plays at such a high level defensively that, for me, I don’t want to look like the odd man out.” 在我们比过的队内赛里，他将整体强度提升很多，在礼拜一训练营结束後Smith说道 领导能力不代表你一定要是讲话最大声的，不代表你要告诉每个人该做什麽事，有时候你 只要示范怎麽做，而他用非常高的防守强度在打球以至於我不想成为那个防守在摸鱼的人 Bradley isn’t going to say much. It’s not really his way. But he challenges those around him, wittingly or not, by competing his tail off. Bradley不想说太多话，这不是他的习惯，但他以非常努力的态度去挑战他身边的人。 “He’s not going to play harder than me and all of us are looking out of place,” said Smith. “He’s already, just in our pickup games, brought up the level defensively.” 他不打算打球打得比我更努力，且我们每一个人都试着打得比其他人更努力，他已经准备 好了，且仅仅在队内赛就把防守强度大幅提高。 A quick glance at Bradley’s resume offers proof of his defensive exploits. Second-team all-defense in 2012-13. First-team in 2015-16. 一个简单的总结可以概括Bradley的防守贡献，2015-2016防守第一队，2012-2013防守 第二队 “I think it’s kind of crazy he’s not first- or at least second-team all-defense every year,” said Smith. 我认为他没有每年进年度防守球队是一件很扯的事。 “He was a snub last year,” said Reggie Jackson. RJ表示，他是今年的遗珠。 The Pistons’ identity this season is yet to be defined. Stan Van Gundy stressed the importance of defensive intensity on Monday, and his players echoed his words. Bradley was the first. 活塞的注册商标还没被定义，SVG在礼拜一强调防守强度的重要性，且他的球员回应了他的 要求，Bradley是第一个。 “We know that we have to work harder than a lot of other teams in the NBA. We know we can’t have off-nights,” said Bradley. “Every single night we have to go out there and play hard, play with 100 percent effort, and I think that has to be our identity. We have to be a team that goes out there and fights with a defensive mindset.” 我们知道我们必须打得比其他队伍更努力，我们不能有一晚松懈，Bradley说，每一晚我们 必须努力，必须拿出100%的实力，我认为这一定要成为我们的注册商标，我们要成为以防 守为主的球队。 These words ring true from Bradley because he backs them up on the court. That's what gained him the universal respect of his teammates with the Celtics. 这些字句围绕着Bradley，且Bradley带着这些承诺上场比赛。 这是为什麽他能在赛尔提克获得众多人的尊重。 “In Boston I think I led more by example. I was there for seven years. I was a vocal leader at times, but I wanted to be somebody that led by example for all the young guys. I wanted to do things the right way and be consistent so guys could follow my lead,” said Bradley. 在波士顿我认为我以示范的方式领导，我在那七年，我有时候是发声领袖，但我为年轻球 员以身作则。 With the Pistons, his leadership role is still taking shape. 在活塞，他还在拿捏他的领导角色。 “Here, I think it’s something that you have to take slowly. I can’t just come in here bossing everybody around. I’m learning and trying to figure out what I can bring to this team, what I can bring to individuals,” said Bradley. “If we need a vocal leader, that’s what I’m going to be. If we need somebody that just leads by example, that’s what I’ll do.” 在这里我认为这件事必须慢慢来，我不能空降然後颐指气使每个人，我还在学且试着了解 我能带给这个队伍什麽，我能带给一个球员什麽。如果我们需要一个发声领袖，我就会成 为发声领袖，如果我们只需要有人以身作则，我就会去做。 There’s no mistaking Bradley’s understated demeanor. Smith called him a “ quiet spirit.” Jackson said, “He doesn’t necessarily have much to say.” 这里没有弄错Bradley的低调风度，Smith说他是一个沉默的灵魂，RJ说Bradley没有太多 话需要说。 But Bradley will interject when he needs to. 但Bradley会适时介入如果他需要的话。 “He does a good job of talking to guys, pulling them to the side,” said Smith. Smith说他在跟其他人沟通时做得很好，他把他们拉到一边说。 By picking his spots, Bradley gives his words weight. And he’s able to give advice, it seems, because he’s willing to accept it. Bradley藉由挑地方说话，使他说的话更有分量，他能够给予建议而且他乐意这麽做。 “I just want to help everybody become better people and better players. And that’s the same for me. If anybody wants to help me, I would hope they would speak up as well,” said Bradley. 我只想帮助每个人变成更好的人与球员，我也想从他们那得到帮助且成为更好的人与球员 如果任何人想帮我，我希望他们也能说出来。 If there’s one player who might benefit most from Bradley’s presence, it’s Stanley Johnson. The 21-year-old can be a defensive stalwart in his own right, even if he’s yet to realize it. 如果有人从Bradley受益最多，那个人就是Stanley Johnson，这位21岁的球员能成为一个 防守的中坚份子，即使他还没开窍。 “I’ve seen a young guy that is very talented and trying to figure out what exactly he does special, and that’s guard, get down every single night and guard the best three-man or two-man,” said Bradley. “Because Stanley is a freak, man, a freak athlete.” 我已看到一个非常有天赋的年轻人，他努力寻找他做得最好的是甚麽，我认为答案是防守 每个晚上上场去守那些最好二号位或三号位球员，因为Stanley是个怪物，一个怪物般的 运动员。 For Johnson, it’s not a question of ability. Nor is it really an issue of effort. On defense, at least, it’s a matter of embracing his own potential. 对Johnson来说，他的问题不在能力也不在努力，防守方面至少要释放他的所有潜力。 “I think the sky’s the limit for him if he’s able to go out there every single night and challenge himself to defend whoever. That’s my mindset every single night,” said Bradley. “I want to defend the best player on the other team, and if he has that same mindset I think it’ll be good for our team.” 我认为天空才是它的极限，如果他能每天晚上挑战自己去守任何人，这是我的心态，我想 去守那些对方最好的球员，如果SJ也有同样的心态，我认为我们的团队会受益。 The Pistons will learn a lot from Bradley, and the process has only just begun. 活塞球员会从Bradley那学到很多，且这个过程才刚刚开始。 --
