今天刚好看到ESPN有一篇有关Duncan的外电， 还满长的，就分享给马刺版的版友罗~~ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Tim Duncan: Enjoyed ride but basketball at times was 'not fun anymore' TD:这是一段很棒的篮球旅程，但有时会感到篮球不再有趣了 EPSN/ Michael C. Wright SAN ANTONIO -- Spurs power forward Tim Duncan spoke for the first time on Wednesday since announcing his retirement two days prior, expounding upon his 19-year NBA career and explaining why he made the decision to leave the game. "I can still do this. I could probably still play," Duncan said in a wide-ranging interview with ViVid Streaming. "But when it's time, it's time. It's time. I started not enjoying myself. It wasn't fun at times. And I always said when that point comes when it's not fun anymore then I'm done." 圣安东尼奥 --美国时间礼拜三的时候，马刺大前锋Tim Duncan首度出来谈他过去在 NBA的19年球员生涯，以及他为什麽会选择退役。 Duncan在接受ViVid Streaming访问的时候谈到： "我还能打，应该吧。但如果时刻已经到了，那就是了。我想这样的时刻已经到了， 我开始不能打得尽兴了，有时会感觉到很无趣。然而我很常讲这句话，'如果篮球已 经变得不再有趣了，也是时候该退休了。'" As hoops fans all over the country spent Monday and Tuesday watching highlights and tributes to Duncan among the various sports television outlets, the power forward spent the day of his retirement watching the Discovery Channel. Duncan's reaction seemed typical of the man of few words, who spent an entire career leading by example, while spearheading the San Antonio's current culture of selflessness. 当全美的篮球迷们都在看Duncan的过往的highlights和纪录影片，这时的他正在家里 看Discovery 。Duncan的反应跟过去那个沉默寡言、以球队典范带领球队、建立起马 刺无私球风的他一样。 In the days since announcing his retirement, Duncan said he received an outpouring of support from friends and family, as well as from coaches and executives around the NBA. Included among the well-wishers was Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr, who despite playing with Michael Jordan on the Chicago Bulls, once called the power forward the greatest teammate he ever has played with. "He actually sent me a message and said something along those lines," said Duncan, who won a pair of NBA titles alongside Kerr during Kerr's two stints with the Spurs. "And again, I've gotten some incredible notes, messages, from so many different people that are honestly blowing me away. I didn't expect all of this; didn't expect the reaction I got. But it's been amazing. I've spent the last two days trying to respond to everybody and trying to get back to everybody to make sure I'm thankful for their messages, their words. I did actually get a personal note from Steve." 在他宣布退休後的这几天，Duncan说他收到了非常多来自朋友和家人的祝福，还有些是 来自NBA的教练和制服组。其中还包括了勇士队的教练Steve Kerr，尽管他曾经跟MJ一 起在公牛打过球，却说过Duncan是他见过最棒的队友。 Duncan也曾跟Kerr一起携手拿下两冠，Duncan说： "他有寄给我一则讯息，在里面他也 讲了很多。除此之外，我还收到了很多人寄来的信件和讯息，他们都是真心地祝福我。 这些是出乎我预期的，我原本并不期待大众有这样的回应。但这感觉很特别，我花了过 去两天的时间试着去回应每一个人、传达给他们我真的很感谢他们的讯息、感谢他们写 下来的文字。我也有收到来自Steve(Kerr)的私人信件。" Spurs coach Gregg Popovich on Tuesday delivered an emotional goodbye to Duncan during a 15-minute meeting with local reporters. Duncan watched the footage of Popovich's interview on Tuesday and admitted, "I about lost it on that one." Duncan also expressed appreciation for his near-universal standing as one of the NBA's all-time greats -- not just arguably the greatest power forward. "I don't know how their ranking goes or anything else, and I tell people I don't really care how the rankings go. I'm in the conversation," Duncan said. "I'm OK with that. That's above and beyond anything I ever thought I would be. So I'm in the conversation. I don't care where you rank me or what you say it is or how you want to say things go. I'm in the conversation. That in itself is an honor." Gregg Popovich也在礼拜二的访谈中，对Duncan来了段感人的道别。Duncan坦承他在看 Popovich访谈的时候，"当时我快控制不住我自己了。" Duncan也很感谢人们评论他是史上最杰出的几位大前锋。 Duncan说："我不知道他们是怎麽排的，但我告诉他们我并不在意排名，他们会谈论到 我就够了。 把我排哪边我都无所谓，这些早已超越我过去对我自己的期许了。所以当 他们在这类排名会谈论到我时，我也不在意最後你怎麽我或怎麽说。能够出现在这类的 讨论里，这就已经是份荣誉。" http://imgur.com/cqZ8igF Having won five NBA titles with the Spurs, along with earning two NBA MVP awards in addition to making 15 All-Star Game appearances, Duncan, 40, played his final game on May 12 in the team's Game 6 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder in the Western Conference semifinals. In what would be Duncan's final NBA appearance, he displayed flashes of his previous All-Star form in scoring 19 points to go with five rebounds and one block in 34 minutes. Just before the fourth quarter with the Spurs trailing, Duncan asked Popovich if he could remain in the game for the final 12 minutes. As the game concluded and the confetti fell from the rafters, Duncan walked off the court in Oklahoma City waving to the crowd with one finger pointed toward the roof. 曾带领马刺五度夺冠、赢得两座MVP和入选15次明星赛，40岁的Duncan，五月12日的 西区准决赛第六场成了他生涯的最後一战。 在Duncan的最後一次出赛，他彷佛找回过去的全明星的身手，34分钟内缴出19分五篮板 一火锅的成绩。在马刺追分的第四节开打前，Duncan问了Popo他可不可以打完剩下的12 分钟。 在比赛结束时，主场洒下了胜利的彩带，Duncan离开了OKC主场并向球迷挥手致意，还 用一只手指指向屋顶。 Over the years, Duncan took less money in contracts from the Spurs to give the organization more ammunition to field successful teams; he explained on Wednesday that the money had "not ever been a deal for me." "I took a little bit less money at certain points [so] that we could stay competitive, so that we could bring players in, so that we could put pieces around, so that we could win championships," he said. "That's all it was about. I don't really care who was making what. Honest truth is I didn't really know from year to year what people were making. I think that was the best perspective to have." 过去这些年，Duncan选择跟马刺签下佛心约来让球团有更多的银弹来打造球队；礼拜 三他也谈到钱"从来不是他所考虑的"。 他说："当时我选择拿少一点，来让球队能维持竞争力，所以我们才能招募好球员进来 、才能够凑齐夺冠需要的成员、才能夺冠。事情就是这麽一回事。我真的不在意别人 赚了多少钱，说真的过去这几年我都不清楚别人都赚了多少，但我认为我这样的想法 是最正确的。" That approach led to championship results and back-to-back MVP awards for the 2001-02 and 2002-03 seasons. "The good old days when the knees were really good, remember those days?" Duncan said jokingly. "At that point, I believed in what I could do. Being a competitor, I wanted it year after year after year. I remember being disappointed in the years after that, when I wasn't able to be an MVP. But that's just my competitive nature in that respect. But I believed in what I was. I didn't know that was gonna translate in ending up in five championships or anything else. But I knew that I could affect the game. I knew that I could control the game in ways. I knew how to do it. "It was just about being in the right situation with the right bunch of guys and getting it done." 这样的风格让他拿到了冠军，也让他在01-02和02-03蝉联联盟MVP。 "还记得过去我膝盖还很好时的好日子吗？"Duncan语带诙谐地说， "当时的我，对自己很有信心。身为一个竞争者，我每一年都想拿MVP。我还记得那之後 没拿到的那几年，我感到很失望。但那是我的竞争天性使然，当时的我仍然对自己有信 心。当时的我不知道最後我会拿下五冠，但我知道我有能力改变比赛，我能控制比赛， 我知道该如何去做。" "只要有对的时机、有对的队友，就会赢。" Duncan also explained his competitive nature, which he always displayed in a stoic manner, without any hit of boisterousness. "I think I've always approached it in a different way. I think competitiveness is taken in a different way by different people," Duncan said. "So I'm not a yeller and a screamer, a jumper and a pusher. I'm not gonna do all that stuff with my teammates or opponents. But I've been competitive from Day 1. Whether people recognize that or not, I don't know how they can't. I'm not gonna go out there and try to hurt somebody or win at all means. But if it's up in the air, I'm gonna try harder than you to get it done." Duncan也解释了自己的竞争天性，尽管过去他的风格沉稳，而一点也不浮躁。 Duncan说："我想我竞争的方式跟别人不一样。我不会吼叫、不会尖叫、不会乱跳也不 会推挤。我不会对我的队友或对手做这些，但我从第一天在NBA开始就很拚。我不知道 人们看不看得出来，还有他们为什麽看不出来。我在场上不会伤害别人或为了赢不择手 段，但只要比赛还没结束，我会比你更拚然後赢下这场球赛。" http://imgur.com/gh1VDo1 Duncan and teammates Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili rank as the winningest trio in NBA history in the regular season (575 wins) and postseason (126). Duncan and Popovich have combined for the most regular-season victories by any player-coach duo in NBA history (1,001). And the forward ends his career as just one of three players in league annals, along with John Stockton and Kobe Bryant, to spend 19 seasons with one franchise. Duncan、TP、Manu三人是史上例行赛(575 wins)和季後赛(126 wins)最多胜的三人组， Duncan跟Popo也是史上最多的1,001胜的师徒组合。而他也是第三位在单一球队待超过 19年的球员，另外两位是John Stockton和Kobe Bryant。 Duncan said playing alongside Parker and Ginobili meant a great deal to him. "We took pride in representing where we came from, took pride in being from small places, and places all around the world and being able to come together and make ourselves into a team, into a group of guys with one goal and get that done," said Duncan, who was born and raised on Saint Croix. "A kid from the islands, a kid from somewhere in France, a kid from somewhere in Argentina, and we find ways to get things done. But Pop on top of that, and him having the vision to put us all together to see what we could be. You look back and that's just an amazing feat: to have all these kids from all these different places come together and be what we were." Duncan说跟Parker和Ginobili一起打球的时光对他意义非凡。 "我们以我们的家乡为荣、以出身小地区为荣。我们来自世界各地，来到同一支球队， 一起为了同一个目标打拼，也达成过了"。Duncan出生并在Saint Criox长大， "一个来自群岛的孩子、一个来自法国的孩子、一个来自阿根廷某处的孩子，我们都知 道该如何把事情做好。但Pop比我们更厉害，用他的眼光把我们凑在一起，看会有怎样 的化学效应。如果你回首看你会发现这一切很不可思议： 来自不同地方的孩子们凑在 一起，而这些最後成就了我们。" In the end, Duncan made sure to thank the San Antonio fan base for its support. Duncan is the only player in NBA history to play over 9,000 career minutes in the playoffs, and he ranks No. 1 all time in postseason double-doubles (164) and blocks (568), third in rebounds (2,859) and sixth in points (5,172). Duncan played in 251 postseason games (second all time) and averaged 20.6 points, 11.4 rebounds and 3.0 assists in 37.3 minutes, in addition to shooting .501 (1,975-3,939) from the field. "Just thank-you. I don't think there's anything better to say than thank-you," Duncan said. "Over the years, we've been blessed. We've been great about winning games and everything else. We've lost some big ones, lost a couple of chances at championships. But the fans here have just been so awesome in their support and their love for the team. Everybody's always shown such appreciation and love for myself and the team. We have some of the best fans in the NBA -- in sports, in general. I'm so appreciative of that. People come out, people support, people love the Spurs. That's special. That's not everywhere." 最後，Duncan感谢圣安东尼奥的球迷们对他的支持。 Duncan是史上唯一一位在季後赛出赛超过9,000分钟的球员，同时在季後赛的纪录里， 双10的次数(164)和火锅的次数(568)史上第一、篮板数史上第三(2,859)、得分史上第 六(5,172)。Duncan在他出赛的251场季後赛(史上第二)，平均上场时间37.3分钟，缴出 20.6分、11.4篮板和3.0助攻，而且有着.501(1,975-3,939)的命中率。 Duncan说："谢谢你们，除了'谢谢你们'我想不到更适合的字了。过去几年，我们一直 像是被神眷顾一样， 我们赢了非常多次。尽管我们也曾输了几场重要的比赛，也错失 了两次赢下总冠军的机会，但我们的球迷们依旧给予马刺支持和他们的爱，每个人都对 我和我们球队非常地感谢和热爱。我们有着全NBA最棒的球迷、甚至是体育界最棒的球 迷。对此我非常感谢，他们力挺、他们支持、他们爱着马刺。这很特别，不是任何地方 都有这样的球迷们。" 原文网址：http://goo.gl/2VX63v --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 看完好感动...
