原文连结：http://newsok.com/rookie-pace-biggest-change/article/3421880 Can we talk...With Thunder guard James Harden Q：What’s the toughest adjustment going from college to the NBA? A：I’d say the pace of the game. It’s better players and you have to go out there and be in the best shape of your life because you’re playing against the best players. You can’t have any slip-ups, especially as a rookie. Q：从大学到NBA之後最难适应的是什麽？ A：我必须说是比赛的强度。NBA的球员更强，你必须全力以赴，并保持最佳状态，因为你 要面对的都是最顶尖的篮球员。你不能有一丝丝懈怠，尤其是一个菜鸟。 Q：Why do you wear No. 13? A：Because of high school. I was the only freshman playing varsity basketball in high school. I was the last person that got to pick my jersey. And the only two left were 13 and 45. I just picked 13 and stuck with it throughout high school and throughout college. Q：选择13号当背号的原因？ A：我高中进校队时，只有我一个是菜鸟。选背号的时候，我也是最後一个选的，到我选 的时候只剩13＆45。我选了13号并且一路到现在。(看起来就是随便选的…这个答案真没 新闻性) Q：If you weren’t an NBA player what would you be doing? A：Something in sports. I’m a sports fiend. I like all kinds of sports. I played baseball growing up. I played first base and pitcher. I stopped around 10 or 11. I wanted to play in high school but my coach wouldn’t let me. Q：如果你不是NBA球员的话，你现在会做什麽？ A：还是会做跟运动相关的工作吧。我是个运动迷，热爱所有的运动。我也可以打棒球！ 我可以当一垒手跟投手呢。在我10或11岁的时候就不打棒球了。其实我高中想去打棒球， 但我们高中棒球队的教练不给我打。 Q：Who are some of the famous guys you played basketball with as a kid in L.A.? A：Brandon Jennings. We played on the same AAU team. Austin Daye. A few other guys who are still in college. Q：谁是你小时候在LA的最有名的球友？ A：Brandon Jennings。我们都是AAU的球员。另外跟我一起打AAU的Austin Daye(2009活 塞队第一轮15顺位)後来成了我大学队友。 Q：Who was your toughest test back then that helped you get to this point? A：Taylor King. He goes to Villanova now. He was the top player in high school and No. 1 in the state of California. Every time I saw him it was the match-up. I was the second-best player, they said, in high school in the state. I played him two or three times my senior year and I won every time. But he’s a great player. Q：谁给过你最艰难的考验，这个考验让你获得什麽？ A：Taylor King。他现在在Villanova。他高中是加州第一人。每次我都要守他。那个 时候，我总是被评论为加州第二好的球员。後来我高二(senior)以後跟他对抗过2-3场， 我都赢了！但他还是个很棒的球员。 Q：What’s the one thing fans don’t know about James Harden? A：I’m just a cool, goofy guy that likes to relax and have fun. I’m a very relaxed guy. My teammates would say the same thing. I just like to have fun. Q:关於你的哪一件事是球迷还不知道的？ A：我是个镇定的人，有点傻里傻气。我喜欢放松，找些乐子。我是个超友善的人。我的 队友都这样讲我。我只是喜欢找乐子！ Q：What has made you decide to keep the beard? A：I thought about (shaving it). I just look like a kid if I shave it. I like to keep this grown, mature look. I don’t want mine to get as crazy as Baron Davis’. But it’s just a little something I like. Q：你为何要留胡子？ A：我以前想过剃掉胡子，不过我剃掉胡子就会像个小孩。我喜欢留胡子，看起来比较成 熟。我不想让自己变得跟Baron Davis一样疯狂，但他的某些特质我还蛮向往的。 -- 『也许你想从我身上寻求许多东西。可是我却一点也没有感觉自己有什麽被需求。』 --
