Spears Globe Staff / March 13, 2009 本篇主要在讲RAY的罚球，包含他和PP的场边小约定，心路历程。 先替从不间断练习罚球的RAY鼓掌，在此至上敬意！ http://www.boston.com/sports/basketball/celtics/articles/2009/03/13 /free_and_easy/ http://0rz.tw/PPWJf -------------------------------- RAY与PP的小约定 It started as a gentlemen's bet before the season between two ultracompetitive Celtics, Ray Allen and Paul Pierce. The issue was free throws. As long as Pierce can stay within 6 percentage points of Allen's free throw accuracy, he wins. No money was involved. Just pride. 季初，同样好胜的RAY与PP有个赌约──关於罚球，如果PP与RAY的罚球命中率相差6%以内 ，则PP获胜。两人的赌约不涉及金钱，完全是君子间的荣誉之争。 At .838, Pierce is just .06 shy of surpassing his career-best mark. But even with that average, he is getting trounced by Allen, who is not only doing the best free throw shooting of his career but seems poised to surpass a longstanding Celtics record and challenge the NBA standard, too. "That dude's having a super career year, Ray Allen," Pierce said. "He's never shot over 92 percent. I thought I'd get within like 6 or 8 percent of him, but he is just running away with it. That's little stuff we do to push each other. Dang, he's got his career year. I didn't know he was shooting 95. He's killing me." PP本季的罚球命中率为83.8%，比他生涯最高水平略低0.6%，但即使如此PP依然被RAY远远 甩在身後，RAY本赛季的罚球命中率创下生涯新高，而且打破塞尔提克的队史，开始挑战 全联盟的纪录。 PP对此表示：「嘿，这家伙本赛季表现棒极了！他过去从未拥有超过92%的命中率。 我以为和他的差距在6%到8%之间，结果我还是难以望其项背呀！那个打赌，我们本来意在 互相激励对方的，结果──RAY现在达到生涯新高了！实在是有够厉害！」 Not even the best 但RAY还不是最好的 Allen ranked fourth in the NBA in free throw percentage last season at a career-best .907. The 13-year veteran is now shooting a stunning .954 from the line (206 of 216). The franchise record is .932 (342 of 367) by Bill Sharman during the 1958-59 season. The NBA record is .958 (206 of 215) by Houston's Calvin Murphy during the 1980-81 season. Allen has never missed more than one free throw in a game all season and hasn't missed any the last eight games. 上赛季，Ray的罚球命中率为90.7%，位居全联盟第四，这个成绩是他之前的生涯最高。而本 赛季，这个13年经验的老兵在罚球线上216罚206中，命中率高达95.4%。塞尔提克队史的记 录是Bill Sharman在1959-59赛季创下的367罚342中（93.2%），联盟记录则是火箭的 Calvin Murphy在1980-81赛季创下的215罚206中（95.8%）。 本赛季RAY还没有在任何一场比赛中罚球失手超过一次，而最近八场，他更是百发百中！ Despite Allen's free throw prowess, he is second in the NBA. Toronto's Jose Calderon has shot nearly 100 fewer than Allen but is hitting at an amazing .983 clip (117 of 119), and once made 84 straight this season. Moreover, he was one of seven players who had shot at least .900 from the line entering last night. 不过，尽管Ray本赛季的表现如此神勇，他却在联盟屈居次席，暴龙的卡跌龙虽然罚球次数 比Ray少了近百球，但却有惊人的98.3%的有够变态命中率（119罚117中）甚至在赛季 中有过连续命中84球的鬼神表现，此外卡跌龙是仅有的7位命中率超过90%的球员之一。 "The top four, that's probably some of the highest free throw shooting in the league," said Allen. "Normally, 91 [percent] is pretty much leading it. That's some pretty good free throw shooting." 「前四名应该是联盟最好的罚球手了，大体而言罚球命中率能有91%诚属难能可贵。」RAY 是这麽觉得的。 Calderon isn't dwelling on challenging Murphy. "It's a long way until the end of the season," he said. "Foul shooting is one of the many things I have to think about right now. I don't know what's going to happen at the end of the year. If it happens, it happens. But I really don't go out there thinking about it. I just want to keep on doing the same things consistently." 当然卡跌龙并非一心想要超越Murphy的记录，他说：「离赛季结束还有段时间，罚球 球只是当中的一部分。我不知道到了赛季结束的时候会发生什麽事情，如果我真的破了 了他的记录那也很好，但我真的没有在想这个问题，我只希望能继续维持现状。」 Allen set a franchise record by making 72 straight free throws from Dec. 28, 2008-Feb. 22, 2009. Larry Bird owned the record of 71, set in 1989-90. After passing Bird, Allen missed the next one. Allen还打破了球队另一项纪录，他在2008年12月28日至2009年2月22日期间，连续命中72记 罚球，此项记录之前是由Larry Bird在1989-90赛季创下的连续71球命中，不过就在正好超 越大鸟之後，Ray下一个罚球失手了......囧 "Larry Bird, he's this franchise," Allen said. "He is what being a Celtic stands for. When you look at the record books, you look at how many points were scored and how many championships were won and all the different records the Celtics hold not only in this organization but the NBA, just to be able to at least kind of put my name up there somewhere - obviously in the future, records are broken - but just to have an impact here, this is a special feeling. 「Larry Bird，他无疑是个传奇，他是塞尔提克最好的代言人。将来当你翻开历史，回顾 你得了多少分，拿了多少总冠军，以及塞尔提克各种各样球队记录，甚至是全联盟的记时 ，能够发现我的名字赫然在列，那是多麽美妙的事情！当然，这个由我创下的纪录也许也会 被打破，但至少，我曾经留下痕迹！」——Ray。 Calhoun a key So how did Allen become such a great free throw shooter? While he says he had great teachers while growing up, he mainly credits his college coach, Connecticut's Jim Calhoun. At the beginning of every practice, Allen said, Calhoun would pit the players in free throw shooting contests. Once the competition was over, the losers would have to go on the opposite side of the floor from Calhoun to be seen by everyone before running to the coach. Calhoun would almost make a point to let everyone know when the usually sharpshooting Allen lost. RAY将他优秀的罚球归功於曾经帮助过他的诸多教练们，尤其是他的大学教练。 Allen shot .779 during three seasons at UConn, including .810 his junior season. He says his free throw stroke has been consistent since college. UConn时期，Allen平均罚球命中率爲77.9%，三年级时达到81%，自此奠定RAY的罚球水准。 "Coach Calhoun bred us into believing that free throws were the cornerstone of where we needed to go. We wanted to be a 75 to 85 percent free throw-shooting team," Allen said. RAY表示：「Calhoun教练告诉我们，罚球通向成功，我们要成为全队罚球命中率平均 75%到85%的球队。」 Allen is known as one of the greatest shooters in NBA history, the result of hard work and countless shooting over the years. He once fulfilled a personal challenge by hitting 100 straight free throws during a practice in Cleveland. "I just stopped, just shooting by myself," he said. "I was with Milwaukee. [I stopped] because I was there for a long time." Allen无疑是NBA历史上最伟大的射手之一，这归因於他多年来刻苦的训练和数不尽的 投篮练习，他曾在与骑士比赛开打前的训练时，进行一次连续命中100个罚球的自我挑战。 「我自己一个人在那里不停的投、不停的投，当时我还在密尔瓦基.....後来我停下来了， 因为我实在在那里待太久了......」RAY回忆道。 Recipe for success Allen says he shoots about 50 practice free throws "every single day." He takes part in free throw games that include 2 points for a swish, 1 for a make, and minus-1 for a miss. The 33-year-old also makes a point to practice free throws between shooting drills while he is fatigued to create game simulation. RAY每天至少进行50次罚球练习。他还参加一个罚球游戏，规则是这样的，空心入网 得2分，进球得1分，失手则扣一分。RAY在练习的空档、以及因为疲劳无法进行实战练习时 依然会练习罚球。 "Every drill where I shoot, I always shoot free throws," Allen said. "If I go from shooting threes to shooting midrange, I always go to the free throw line in between. After I shoot and get fatigued, I go to the free throw line. Say if I'm missing a lot of shots from the 3-point line, I'll just stop and go to the free throw line and develop a good rhythm from free throws and go to that spot again." 「我每次投篮练习都会加练罚球。在我练完三分，准备改练中距离的时候，我会练习一下 罚球。当我投篮训练结束，即使疲累我也会练习罚球。如果我在三分线上的感觉不好， ，我也会练习罚球，试图通过罚球找回投篮节奏，然後再回到投篮区域进行投篮练习。」 Another key is focus. Regardless of whether it's a free throw in a blowout or late in a tight playoff game, he treats it the same. "People talk about great free throw shooting. I just say it's great focus," said Allen. "You have to prepare for it. You have to know how to calm yourself down. You're talking about a game where it can be so intense and the game is flowing and you get to the free throw line and it goes against everything you just did. From running up and down the floor, your blood is pumping. You just have to calm yourself down. "It's no different than anything we do. If we want to do well, we focus on that." 另一个关键就是专注力，无论是无关紧要的一记罚球，还是最後比分胶着的季後赛关键时刻 ，他总是能以同样的心态面对。 「人们常说一个人的罚球非常好，而我会说他非常专注。你必须时刻做好准备，意识到必须 让自己冷静下来。假使现在有场比赛，比分接近，整个比赛早已沸腾，而此时你站上罚球线 ，周围的一切看起来似乎很不利於你，而你由於在场上不停的奔跑，心跳自然快速， 在这样的情况下，你也一定要让自己冷静下来！」 「这和平时没什麽两样，如果我们希望做好的话就必须保持高度的专注力。」 It's rare to see Allen miss. It's even rarer to see him miss two straight. Missing two straight during a game in Cleveland last season still stings him. But when he does miss, Allen says the key is to shoot the next one with focus, as if that miss never happened. "You're going to miss," Allen said. "But you have to make sure you prepare yourself the same way for the next free throw. Don't take the pressure of the games, the situation of the game, and how my body feels to the free throw line. Take it like I'm practicing on it every day by myself." RAY罚球失手的情形还是很罕见的，更罕见的是连续罚丢两球。这不得不提上赛季有一场 对阵骑士的比赛，他居然连续失手两球，这也是他挥之不去的阴霾。不过即便罚丢了一球， 他表示，关键是在罚下一球时继续保持注意力集中，并且告诉自己第一球没有失手。 「人总有失手的时候，但是你得保证你为下一次罚球做好了准备，不要被比赛的压力所影响 ，不要被当时比赛的情况所影响，不要被当天自己在罚球线上的感觉所影响。就把它当成自 己每天的训练一样就好了！」 While Allen doesn't seem bothered by the crowd, he did say that sometimes the elements can make it tough for shooting. He was challenged by the moisture on the ball against the Pistons in the playoffs because of the heat in The Palace of Auburn Hills. He also said that in cold arenas, like TD Banknorth Garden, he will put a heat pack on his hands to warm them for a better grip on the ball. 虽然RAY看起来不怎麽受现场球迷的影响，但难免有时候观众的确会使投篮更困难， RAY特别提到去年季後赛在底特律的The Palace of Aubum Hills，皮球略带水气也 让他受到了一些影响。 在一些比较寒冷的球场，比如我们的花园，RAY会用个暖暖袋暖暖他的手~ 这样可以让他更好掌控球。 Shooting free throws in the clutch with 20,000 screaming fans clapping inflatable sticks doesn't seem to bother Allen in the least. Surprisingly, the toughest free throw is the technical. "If you can treat them all the same, you are doing better for yourself," said Allen, who is the Celtics' main technical free throw shooter. "But the toughest ones are technical free throws. Everybody is off the line. It doesn't seem like a whole lot when you go to the line. You're isolated out there by yourself, and that's the one time you know everybody's watching. "You just zone in and do what you do. That's why you have to treat it the same. But it can be daunting if you allow the situation to overcome you." 在比赛关键时刻，顶着全场20000名观众的尖叫和面对球迷手中摇晃的充气棒执行罚球， 对RAY来说不算太难，令人意想不到的是，他觉得最难的是执行技术犯规的罚球。 「如果你能一直把罚球处理好的话，你已经到达另外一个(篮球)境界了！ 不过最难的技术犯规的罚球，所有的球员都不能站在禁区抢篮板，和平时的罚球情景不太 一样，这种时候就只有你自己一个人孤单站在罚球线上，全场的目光全部聚焦在你身上！」 「所以你只需要走到罚球线，然後做你该做的，这是你必须让自己和平常没有两样的原因， ，如果你做不到，那麽下次你站上去时，难免会畏缩。」 To Allen, great free throw shooting isn't complicated. He says the keys are simply lots of practice, focus, and confidence. But as Pierce can attest, it's easier said than done. "Free throw shooting is confidence, knowing you have preparation to knock them down and the confidence to do it," Allen said. 对RAY而言，成为一名顶尖的罚球手一点也不复杂。他表示关键不外乎是大量的练习，保 持专注，以及自信。但正如PP亲身体验的结果──这一切看起来容易，做起来很难啊！ 关於罚球，RAY说：「罚球需要信心，你必须告诉自己你已经做好了将球投进篮框的准备 ，然後有信心地将球投进。」 # -------------------------------------- 可敬的RAY~ 就用你的罚球替塞尔提克留下一场又一场的胜利和── 冠军呀呀呀呀呀呀~~~~~~~~~ GO GO CELTICS ~ --
