AI Coming of Age AI，三十而立 Peerless There will never be another player like Allen Iverson. The moves, the drives, the steals, the dives, the hustle, the heart - all crammed into a tiny six-foot frame. Point guard? shooting guard? It doesn't matter. Just give Allen Iverson the ball. 独一无二 像AI这样的球员，再不会出现第二个。 他的动作、切入、抄截、扑球、争抢，和一颗充满斗志的心-- 全都装在区区六尺的身体里。控球後卫？还是得分後卫？ 一点不重要。把球交给Allen Iverson就对了。 by Andy Jasner #27 NBA InsideStuff June / July 2005 译/Han Way -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The questions about The Answer began long before the Philadelphia 76ers departed last October for Durham, NC, the site of their first training camp under coach Jim O'Brien. 环绕着The Answer的种种问题，早在去年十月Jim O'Brien第一次率领七六人前往 北卡的Durham训练营之前，就纷纷出笼了。 Can Allen Iverson co-exist with O'Brien after a tense relationship with some of his former coaches? Does Iverson have the makeup to be the team leader? Can he adjust to point guard? Can the Sixers contend for a championship centered around a 6-foot, 165-pound player, whose 29-year-old body has taken more than its share of bumps and bruises in eight previous NBA seasons? 跟过去几位教练相处不甚愉快的AI，能和O'Brien和平共存吗？Iverson的个性适合 领导七六人吗？他能调整打法，胜任控卫吗？这个6尺165磅、过去八个球季满身是 伤的29岁球员，真的可以带领七六人踏上总冠军之路吗？ While some questions remain about AI and a young but promising Sixer team, Iverson's ninth season has proven he has evolved into a more complete player. While most NBA experts are pointing to Phoenix Suns guard Steve Nash, Miami Heat center Shaquille O'Neal, San Antonio center Tim Duncan, Dallas Mavericks forward Dirk Nowitzki and Seattle Supersonics guard Ray Allen as the candidates for the '04-05 Most Valuable Player, there's a case to be made for Iverson, who won the award in '00-01. 对於AI和本季年轻有潜力的七六人，人们不免仍然抱持一些疑问，但是进入生涯第 九个球季的AI，证明了自己已经成为一个更全面的球员。尽管大部分NBA专家都认 为太阳队後卫Steve Nash、热火队中锋Shaqille O'Neal、马刺队Tim Duncan、小 牛队前锋Dirk Nowitzki和超音速後卫Ray Allen才有资格角逐'04-'05球季的MVP， 在'00-'01球季荣获该奖项的Iverson绝非不合理的人选。 "I've been watching him on TV for years before I came here this year, and, let me tell you, it's a whole lot different in person," says Sixers rookie Andre Iquodala. "He's incredible. To see what he does night-in and night-out, going around bigger players, getting the ball over the rim, playing with great heart. He gets beat up and keeps coming back. 「我到这里打球之前已经在电视上看他好多年了。我跟你说，看到本人又完全不一 样。」七六人新秀Andre Inguodala说：「他真的是不可思议。每天晚上我都看到他 在更高大的球员旁边杀进杀出，把球放进篮框；满满的斗志。他总是打死不退，天天 如此。」 "I've never seen anyone as tough as he is. Most players would be out for many games with the types of injuries he's had. Allen refuses to sit. He's so tough. I've learned so much by playing with him." 「我从没看过像Allen一样顽强的人。大部分的球员如果身上的伤跟他一样严重，一 定会休息好几天。Allen不愿意下场；他太顽强了。跟他一起打球我学到很多。」 <待续> -- 由於长度的关系，这篇文章将分成六部分，每天一段。 也是由於每段长度的关系，将英文附上，呃，赚p币。 --
