今天富比士有评选了30岁以下杰出的30位运动员,
其中第一名为James Harden(这争议真的蛮大的......)
富比士有两篇外电, 以下就分两段来做翻译
第一篇:

原文:
As a chubby teenager with asthma, James Harden knew his NBA dream was a "long
shot." But the future superstar forced himself to get up early before school
to jack up shots in the gym and lift weights.
做为一个患有气喘的胖呼呼青年, James Harden 知道自己的NBA梦想还很遥远.
但是这位未来的超级明星强迫自己去学校前早起去练习投篮和举重(练重量).
That work eventually earned Harden a scholarship to Arizona State, where he
played for two years before being drafted third overall in 2009 by the
Oklahoma City Thunder.
这些努力最终让 Harden获得亚历桑那州大的奖学金,
在他2009年被Oklahoma 雷霆以第三顺位选中之前,他在那打了两年的球
More than five years later, Harden is living out his fantasy, now as the
starting shooting guard for the Houston Rockets with an Olympic gold medal to
his name.
在这之後的五年, Harden实现了他的梦想, 而现在他是休士顿火箭的先发得分後卫,
并且他还拥有一面奥运金牌
"Most of the days I didn’t want to get up, it was too early," he says,
looking back at his teenage years when he was unknown and, yes, beardless.
"But I had to, and it definitely paid off."
回想起自己默默无名和没有胡子的青少年时期时,
他说:"大多数的日子我不想起床, 这太早了, 但是我必须这麽做,而这确实让我得到了回
报"
Today, Harden is one of the league's most likeable--and marketable--players,
complete with prodigious facial hair and a quirky fashion sense. His on-court
talent earned him a five-year, $80 million contract extension in 2012, while
his off-court charisma has led to endorsements with Nike, Foot Locker and
sports drink company BodyArmor.
凭藉着他惊人的胡子和古怪的时尚感,
Harden现在是联盟其中一个最有人缘和最有象徵性的球员之一.
他在球场上的天赋替他在2012年赚得了一份5年8000万美元的延长合约,
而他球场外的魅力也让他与Nike,Foot Locker和运动饮料公司BodyArmor签下代言合约
"Sometimes you’re just born and gifted with something," he says of his
eccentricities. "The beard, the mohawk, the way I dress, it’s just instilled
in me."
他说到他的怪僻 "有时候你天生就会被赋予一些东西, 胡子,鸡冠庞克头,以及我的穿着方式
"

原文:
It wasn’t until high school that James Harden realized he had a potential
future in the NBA. And that dream eventually became a reality as Harden, who
entered Southern California’s Artesia High School as an undersized and
asthmatic freshman, evolved into a McDonald All-American.
在Harden进入高中前, 他没有意识到他在NBA会有一个有潜力的未来.
Harden 以一个瘦小且有气喘的体型进入南加州的阿迪西亚高中,并入选了全美最佳阵容,
在这之後,这个梦想对於Harden来说最终成真,
It wasn’t easy, and it took some help from coach Scott Pera – “I wouldn’t
be here where I am if it wasn’t for him,” says Harden now – but by the
time he was leaving high school Harden was one of the nation’s most
sought-after recruits.
这是很不容易的, 他从教练Scott Pera身上获得了一些帮助,
他说:"如果不是因为他的帮忙, 我现在不会在这",
当他离开高中时, Harden是全国最抢手的新兵之一
For Harden, that success all stems from hard work: “In high school I caught
the bus every morning, and I was in the gym before class putting those shots
up, putting in the extra work in the weight room, just doing those small
things every single day.”
对於哈登来说,这种成功来自於努力工作努力工作:“在高中时我每天早上赶上公车,然
後在上课前去体育馆里练习投篮,再去健身房做些额外的锻链,我就只是每天在做这些细微
的小事情。“
Harden committed to play college ball at Arizona State, where he collected
All-American and Pac-12 Player of the Year honors. In 2009, after two seasons
at ASU, he was drafted third overall by the Oklahoma City Thunder, making him
the first player drafted by the franchise after it moved from Seattle. His
success carried over to the pros, and in 2012 he won the NBA’s Sixth Man of
the Year award, becoming the second-youngest player ever to do so.
Harden致力於在亚历桑那州大打大学篮球,
并在那边获得了全美最佳阵容和太平洋12区最佳球员的荣誉.
在ASU打了两年的篮球之後,他在2009年被奥克荷拉马雷霆以第3顺位选中,
也让他成为了第一位在球队搬离西雅图後选进的球员.
他将他大学的成功转移到了职业球队上,
在2012年时他成为了NBA历史上第2年轻获得最佳第六人这个奖项的球员.
And that was just the start. After being traded to the Houston Rockets in
October 2012, Harden signed a five-year, $80 million contract extension that
made him the franchise’s cornerstone player. Later that year he took home
gold from the London Olympics, and he’s since earned two All-Star selections
and received all-NBA First Team honors. Houston has made the playoffs in both
of his full years with the team, and the Rockets are off to another hot start
in the 2014-15 season.
而这仅仅是个开始, 当他在2012年10月被交易到休士顿火箭之後,
Harden签暑了一份5年8000万美金的延长合约, 这也让他成为了球队的基石球员.
而在那年,他将伦敦奥运的金牌也带了回家.
他也进入了2次全明星赛和获得了NBA第一队的殊荣,
休士顿在他到来的这两年也都进入了季後赛,在2014-15年的开季,他们也有了一个火烫的
开始
“If you have a dream, chase it no matter what it takes,” says Harden, “No
matter what the haters say, no matter when people doubt you, focus on what
you want to do and go out there and achieve it.”
"如果你有一个梦想, 不管怎麽样你都要追逐它" , Harden说到,
"不管那些讨厌你的人怎麽说,不管那些质疑你的人, 你只需要专注在做你想要做的, 然後
去实现它"
Harden is certainly living his dream in the NBA, and that on-court success
has been joined by a famously charismatic off-court persona to make the
25-year-old shooting guard a marketer’s dream. The eccentricity is far from
a recent development - Harden wore a powder blue tux and Nikes to his high
school prom. “It’s just who I am,” says Harden of his unique style, “and
I don’t really care what anybody thinks.”
Harden现在正在NBA实现他的梦想,
而他在场上的成功也让这位25岁的得分後卫成为了一个场外有魅力的角色.
他的怪僻是最近发展出来的-
Harden穿着一件粉蓝色的晚礼服和Nike球鞋去他的高中毕业舞会.
"这就是我", Harden说到他独特的风格, "我一点也不在意别人怎麽想的"
He has his own Nike shoe and regularly stars in Foot Locker’s national TV
spots. Perhaps most impressively, his endorsement deal with sports drink
company BodyArmor includes an equity stake. And yet it’s not enough for the
25-year-old shooting guard. “I still have a long way to go,” says Harden, “
this is just the beginning.”
他已经拥有了自己的NIKE签名球鞋并定期主演Foot Locker在全国电视播放的广告.
也许最令人印象深刻的,是代言了运动饮料公司 BodyArmor的产品,并拥有了该公司的股权
.
而对於这位25岁的得分後卫来说这是不够的,
"我还有很长的路要走", Harden说到, "这只是个开始"
