※ 引述《jerod (KG4MVP)》之铭言： : http://www.startribune.com/511/story/958713.html : Randy Wittman was grateful, on his first full day as the Timberwolves head : coach, that he knew what was needed to slow down the game. : Slowing down time was a little trickier. 在Randy Wittman第一次完整的一天当灰狼队的总教练之後，他表示对於他知道怎样去 让比赛节奏慢下来感到高兴。如果说"让时间慢下来"的话有点奇怪。 : From the moment Tuesday afternoon when Wittman was named to replace fired : coach Dwane Casey, to when he sat down 18 inches to the right of his usual : seat on the team's bench Wednesday night for Minnesota's game at Portland, : his life had been a whirlwind of news, questions, phone calls, decisions, : meetings, explanations and preparation. He was worried about throwing too : much too soon at the players, wary that heavy strategies and expectations : might overwhelm them coming all at once. 从星期二下午Wittman被任命接替阿西成为总教练的那一刻开始，到星期三晚上他坐在他 一贯坐的位置上指挥灰狼队对战拓荒者队，他的生活就像被旋风扫过一样，不停的新闻， 问题，电话，决定，开会，解释与准备。他担心一下子太快丢给球员们太多东西，堤防 沉重的战术和期待会让他们一下子应付不来。 : "It's hard," Wittman said shortly after Portland edged the Wolves 101-98 in : overtime. "One day of practice to really execute. That will get better. [With : only] 24 hours to pick up some of what I asked them to pick up, I thought : they did a great job." 在灰狼队以101比98在延长赛输给拓荒者者之後，Wittman说:"要在一天的练习後就能去执 行，这很困难。他们将会做的更好。在仅仅的24小时之後去达到我想要他们达到的，我想 他们已经做的很好了。" : But for most of the day, nobody was doing much to brake everything heading at : Wittman, a Wolves assistant for nine of the past 12 seasons and their head : coach overnight. 但在大多时间，朝Wittman飞来的事情并没有停止过。他是灰狼过去9个球季的助理，和 一个晚上的总教练。 : "It hasn't felt like 24 hours. It's gone by pretty fast," he said after the : team's shootaround at the Rose Garden, about seven hours before game time -- : a game the Wolves lost 101-98 to the Trail Blazers in overtime. "Everything's : kind of happened. Then you try to prioritize things I want to get changed for : [Portland], without flooding these guys' heads with too much." : That pushed Tuesday into Wednesday. "Before I knew it, it was 1 or 2 o'clock : in the morning, and here we are again," Wittman said. 他在灰狼以101比98在延长赛输给拓荒者的比赛的开赛前七个小时，当球员在玫瑰花园球场 做完投篮练习之後表示:"这不像是24个小时，时间过的非常快。每件事情就这样发生了， 接着你试着去安排事情顺序让球队能赢球，但又不会让球员们一下接收太多"。这让星期 二进入了星期三。"当我知道的时候，是凌晨大约1,2点。而我们又在这奋战了"。 : The change in Wittman's job description came as suddenly as the word of : Casey's firing, two days into a weeklong West Coast trip. One second he was : preparing for Portland and working to end a four-game losing streak. The : next, he was preparing for Portland, preparing to end a four-game losing : streak and putting his own NBA coaching record on the line. Wittman的工作内容的叙述突然就在Casey被炒鱿鱼的那一刻改变了，就在一星期的西区 客场争战中的前两天。在前一秒，他正在为对拓荒者的比赛而准备，并试图阻止灰狼的 4连败纪录再往前推进。而下一秒，他还是做着一样的事情，改变的是，他要准备 把自己总教练的成绩放上台面。 : That record, a 62-102 mark from two years in Cleveland (1999-2001), wasn't as : good as the team he took over (20-20). It wasn't as good as Casey's, either : (53-69). But he and the Wolves are banking on Wittman being seven years : older, seven years wiser and far more ready a second time around. 这成绩，1999-2001年在骑士队，62胜102败，并不比他接管的时候的20胜20败好。甚至也 比凯西的53胜69败来的差。但Wittman比凯西认识灰狼队还久七年。 : "If I hadn't done it before, I'd be [extremely tight] right now," he said as : tipoff drew near. "That's helped me. I don't have the anxiety that, going : into the first game I coached in Cleveland, I know that you have. : "You have now a sense of what can happen in a game to you and how fast it can : happen. That was the main thing the first time around: When I was sitting as : an assistant, the game looked slow, and now it's 100 miles an hour. I don't : think it will be 100 miles an hour for me now." "如果我不曾做过这个，我现在将会是无比的紧张"，当球赛平手的时候他说到，"在骑士队 的经验帮助了我。我现在不感到焦虑。你会有种感觉，感觉到什麽样的事情会发生，又有 多快会发生。当我是助理的时候，球赛看起来非常缓慢，而现在就像以时速160公里前进 一样快。但我不觉得这现在是如此快的进行了。" : Just 100 tasks and responsibilities. Wittman caught a break in the timing of : his promotion because he had been the assistant in charge of scouting : Portland. "I should know every call without having to turn and ask, 'What's : coming up?' " he said. 百分百的困难任务与责任。Wittman抓到了一点时间休息，因为他曾经是探查拓荒者队的 助理。他说:"我应该知道每件事情，而不是转头去问，'嘿!接下来是什麽?'"。 : For now, he will stick with Bob Ociepka and Rex Kalamian as his help on the : bench, perhaps adding another staffer later. 目前为止，他的助理为Bob Ociepka和Rex Kalamian，或许晚点会再增加一名。 : The game itself? Like riding a bike, apparently. With three referees, 19,000 : screaming people and five guys trying to knock you off. 这球赛本身?表面上就像骑脚踏车一样。有着三名裁判，一万九千名尖叫的观众和五个 试着要把你击倒的人。 : "Fourteen years as a coach and nine as a player in this league, you get an : understanding of ... how you want to run [a game]," he said. "I feel very : confident that I'm ready to step right back in." : That only leaves everything else, from personnel to practices to public : relations. But mostly, personnel. 他说:"十四年的教练和九年的球员身涯，你会有种认知，关於你该如何去比赛，我感到很 有信心，我准备好去奋战了"。那将所有东西都抛在脑後，从人事部分到练习到公关。 但是特别是人事方面。 : The Cliff Notes version of Wittman's time in Cleveland cites the chronic foot : injuries of center Zydrunas Ilgauskas as the reason for his failure. Within : that, though, there was friction with a number of players. More emotional : then and sometimes stubborn, Wittman was said to have chafed with Cedric : Henderson, Wesley Person, Robert Traylor, Jim Jackson and Shawn Kemp at his : most bloated. Lamond Murray was a daily migraine and ... well, just looking : at those names might explain many of the Cavaliers' problems then. : His best Cavs player, other than the unavailable Ilgauskas? Probably guard : Andre Miller, in his first two seasons. Now he's got Kevin Garnett, like : trading in all those Fords for a Ferrari. Cliff Notes评论说，Wittman在骑士队的失败是因为骑士队的中锋Zydrunas Ilgauskas的 慢性脚部伤害。除此之外，和几位球员之间的摩擦。超过情绪化和难以沟通。Wittman曾 说过有和Cedric Henderson,Wesley Person, Robert Traylor, Jim Jackson与 Shawn Kemp有过不合。Lamond Murray每天总有着偏头痛，光看着这些名字就可以解释了 很多骑士队的问题所在。他在骑士队最好的球员，除了不可思议的Ilgauskas? 应该就是後卫Andre Miller。然而现在他拥有Kevin Garnett，这就好像把所有的福特汽车 拿去换来了一台法拉利跑车一样。 : "I think Randy would tell you things to get you going and what we say 'keep : it all the way real,' " Garnett said. "Sometimes players need that. Randy's : real straightforward, not in a negative way. He's very good at getting you to : recognize when something's wrong, if you don't want to recognize it yourself. : That's A to Z, myself all the way through the rookies." Garnett说:"我想Randy将会告诉你一些可以让你前进的东西和一些我们所谓'保留着所有 的真实性'，有些时候球员们需要这些。Randy总是向前迈进。如果你不想去承认你自己的 错误，他很擅长去告诉你哪里错了。那就是一切，从我到菜鸟们都是一样"。 : Still, as in Cleveland, Wittman will have issues. The evenness of talent on : the Wolves' roster, perhaps, and the mediocrity of results has rankled a few : players eager for bigger roles. For example, Marko Jaric still was wary : Wednesday of his spot and future with the team. 仍然就像在骑士队时一样，Wittman将会碰到一些问题。像是如何公平的让每个人有着 出场的机会，这已经让很多球员抱怨过。例如说，Marko Jaric依然在担心在他身上的 聚光灯还不够多。 : "At least somebody else, a new person, is in the coaching job," Jaric said. : "So you say, 'I might -- I might -- get a chance.' We'll see. I am : open-minded and I am ready. But I've learned so far that I can't trust : anybody. Everybody's saying how much they love you, how much they need you. I : say, you know what, show me how much you love me. So we'll see." Jaric说:"至少这是一个新的总教练，所以你会认为你有了一个机会。我有着开阔的心， 且我已经准备好了。但目前为止我已经学到的就是我不能相信任何人。每个人总是说着 他们怎麽喜欢你，他们怎麽需要你。但你知道吗，我会说'那就表现给我看!'"。 : So is Wittman bringing fresh eyes to this roster now, or trusting his old : ones? "They've still got to go out and prove to me that they're worthy of : more minutes or they're worthy of starting," he said. "It's my job to get : them into better position to take advantage of their talent." 所以Wittman会有着新的轮值表还是相信他旧的那份?他说:"他们必须上场并证明给我看他 们值得被给予更多的上场时间，或者值得当作先发球员。这就是我的工作。我的工作就是 给他们一个更好的位置让他们能够发挥他们的才能。" : Wednesday night, it almost felt as if Casey had been ejected at 11:59 of the : first quarter, Wittman simply taking over. But in time, he figures to make : the team his own. 星期三的晚上，这就像是Casey指导了第一节，但在第一节11:59分的时候他被轰出球场， 让Wittman接手。但很快的，他找到了他自己的方法去指导球队。 : In only the first 24 hours, Wittman spoke to each player, to his face and in : front of the group, about what the team needs and expects from him. "My main : thing is, worry about yourself. If we get five guys on the floor doing their : jobs, that's what makes a team," he said. : Actually, it takes six, counting the guy in the suit 在这仅有的前24小时，Wittman和每个球员都说过话，无论是一对一当面或者是整队一起。 他告诉他们他对他们的期待和这球队需要些什麽。 他说:"我最主要的守则是--担心你自己。如果我们有着五个人在场上打球，那就是一个 队伍"。 事实上，这需要六个人，还要加算一个穿着西装的。 -- Jaric你还好意思说那些话阿，你好意思说我都不好意思翻了!XD 翻的不好，还请各位大大见谅<(_ _)> --
