※ 引述《jerod (KG4MVP)》之铭言： : http://www.startribune.com/511/story/961137.html : The point guard was a little irritated, and didn't mind venting in a public : way, all the better to put the challenge to himself and to his teammates. : "We haven't played well lately," he said. "We haven't been as professional as : we need to be. We haven't had a sense of urgency. We've acted like it's just : going to happen for us. That's not good enough." 这位控卫有一点恼怒与烦躁，且并不介意在大众前面发泄自己的情绪，但至少都比 把炮口对准他自己和他的队友好多了。他说:"我们打的并不好。我们没有表现出我们 应有的专业，我们也没有危机心态。我们表现的好像只是因为这件事发生了所以我们 去做，但这并不够好。" : Mike James? Randy Foye? Uh, no, not a Timberwolf. Let's continue: 所以这是Mike James说的?还是Rany Foye?? 不~都猜错了。他并不是灰狼队的一员， 我们继续: : "Our aspirations are to be the best team out there," the playmaker said, "and : we haven't played like the best team, regardless of the wins and losses." 这位控球後卫说到:"我们的热忱足以让我们成为最好的一队，但我们并不表现的 像是最好的。我们不关心到底赢了还是输了。" : Enough guessing. It was Steve Nash talking, the two-time NBA Most Valuable : Player. At the time he spoke, after a shootaround before the Wolves' game at : Phoenix, the Suns were on a 12-game winning streak. 好啦!猜够了~ 答案就是: Steve Nash说的。这位两届NBA最有价值球员在 凤凰城与灰狼队比赛前的练习投篮之後，说了这翻话。在那时，太阳的战绩是正在 12连胜。 : That night they made it 13. And here was Nash, picking nits. 在那晚，太阳让连胜数字成为了13，而这就是Nash在批评一些无用的人。 : Nits to some, anyway. The sign of a leader to others, from a highly evolved : team, with what can best be described as a winning culture. 至於那些无用的人是指谁，我们就不讨论了。这就是一个领导者的象徵，来自於一个高度 成长的队伍，我们可以把这说成是--胜利文化。 : It's almost a foreign language to many NBA teams, the notion that decisions : would get made with only one bottom line -- winning or losing -- in mind. Yet : it's as real to those who've known it and believe in it as it is elusive. : "I totally believe that. Absolutely," new Wolves coach Randy Wittman said : Thursday, after a practice at KeyArena. "Sometimes it's hard [to get], : sometimes not. The acceptance of players, and their character and how they : look at themselves, as well as all of us asking, 'What could I have done : better?' That's the first thing I look at when I wake up in the morning. : Players have to do that same thing if you're going to develop a winning : culture."Now, if it's 'I didn't do anything wrong' or 'It's his fault,' : that's a losing culture." 这对很多NBA球队来说，根本就像火星语一般，然而对这的见解和之後的决心，只会在心中 造就一种结果--赢 或者 输。然而，虽然这难以理解，但对於那些知道并且相信的人来说 这是真实存在的。"我完完全全的相信这个"，灰狼队的新教练Randy Wittman在星期四在 KeyArena的练习之後说到，"有时候这很难去领悟，有时候不会。这要看球员接不接受， 他们的人格特质与他们怎麽看待自己。就像我们所说的"什麽能让我做的更好?"这是我 每天早上起床第一件想的事情。球员们也要做同样的事情如果你想发展出这样的"胜利 文化"。如果你想的是"我没有做错什麽"或者"这是他的错"，这就会成为了失败文化。" : Forward Mark Madsen, who was a part of two NBA championship teams with the : L.A. Lakers (2001, 2002), echoed Wittman's view. "It's so important. You've : got to create something where, when you lose, people are upset," Madsen said. : "When you lose, people are asking themselves all night long, 'What went : wrong?' Players, coaches, everybody. That's what we've had in L.A." 前锋Mark Madsen是湖人在2001与2002拿下总冠军时的一员。他说:"这非常重要， 你必须在你失败的地方和让人失望的地方，去创造出一些东西。当失败的时候，人们总 是整晚问自己"是哪里出错了?"无论是球员或者是教练都是这麽做。这就是我们在LA 的生活。" : In Minnesota, what folks have heard all too often have been familiar refrains : about being "a work in progress" or "coming together" or "the process." For : at least a season and a half. 在明尼苏达，有谁对於"向上进步"或者"团结合作"或者"按部就班"听到都会背了?至少 一个半球季了。 : Wittman, trying to set the right tone a day after the 101-98 overtime loss at : Portland, again preached accountability to his crew. "All you can do is what : I've asked you to do," he has said, several times, since being named Tuesday : to replace Dwane Casey. "You have no control of what I've asked [the other : man] to do, so you shouldn't worry about what he's doing. Just do your job.' : I think that's how you develop guys being accountable." : But Wittman, like Casey before him, might be working with flawed materials. : Building a winning culture would seem to get much tougher if everything in : the parts bin was used to losing. 在灰狼以101-98在延长赛输给拓荒者之後的一天，Wittman尝试用适合的语气去反覆的 对他的队员们做解释。"所有你能做的，就是我叫你去做的"他曾经这样说过很多遍了， 自从他在星期二接替凯西的位置之後。"你不能控制我会叫他们去做什麽，所以你不用担心 他在干麻，你只要做好你自己份内的工作就好了。我想这就是怎样去发展他们 可以负责任。" 但是Wittman，就像之前的凯西一样，将会碰到一些麻烦。如果每个人 在这团队中已经习惯失败，这就很难去建立一个"胜利文化"。 : Only three members of Minnesota's active roster have played on teams with : cumulative winning records. Madsen (105 games over .500), Kevin Garnett (plus : 77) and Troy Hudson (plus 3) have won more than they've lost, based on their : various teams' W-L marks in the seasons they were around. 在灰狼队中只有三个人的胜场数比他们经历的败场数多--Madsen，KG 和 Troy Hudson。 以胜率来看来看，Madsen超过五成，KG是+77，Troy Hudson是+3。这是根据他们所待的 队伍时该队伍的胜败纪录。 : The rest of the Wolves all are sub-.500, from Marko Jaric (minus -79) and : Ricky Davis (minus-67) to Mike James (minus-57) and Mark Blount (minus-55). : Usually, only head coaches get so obviously and permanently evaluated as a : won-lost record. But players have more control over the outcome of a game : than a coach. And for those who haven't had it better, there is a lot of : losing un-learning to be done. 剩余的队员败战率都超过五成，从Marko Jaric的-79和Ricky Davis的-67到Mike James的 -57和Mark Blount的-55。通常，只有总教练的胜败成绩会很明显并维持不变，但球员们 有更多的能力去改变这些数据。如果那些球员的成绩并没有变更好，那就代表他们并没 有从错误中学习。 : "Everybody you coach, there's a different minimum standard," Utah coach Jerry : Sloan said. "Maybe they didn't have enough support to learn how to play : together and not be the star, where somebody else takes that role over and : then you play to that. : "You don't know sometimes until you get guys. We can do all of the guesswork : in the world, and there's no scientist or genius in this business who can : tell you. . . . We try to put a good group of guys together and play a : certain way, and hopefully winning is what they're interested in. They'll all : tell you that." 犹他爵士队的教练Jerry Sloan说:"每个你指导的球员都有不同的最低标准。或许他们 没有得到足够的帮助去教会他们如何团结合作，或者去配合他人，而不是一个人当英雄。 有些时候你无法知道结果直到你得到一些人。我们可以去猜所有的事情。在这行业中没 有人能告诉你结果。他们只会告诉你--我们试着组织一个好的团队，用某种方法打球 并且希望能够赢的比赛。" : We don't want to go completely Christian Laettner on this (Laettner once : famously pointed to the nameplates above the Wolves' dressing stalls and, one : by one, pronounced, "Loser . . . loser . . . loser . . . loser" until : pointing to his own and saying, "Winner"). No one ever has stocked a roster : with all past winners. Guys have to learn sometimes. And almost every team : that wins drags someone along who hasn't. Jaric came up with the Clippers. : Davis bounced from shaky club to shaky club. Ditto for James. : Some players are more fortunate. Madsen was drafted by the league's defending : champions, whereas Trenton Hassell went to Chicago three years after Michael : Jordan left. Some guys won in college, which might help, although learning at : the NBA level is the key. 我们并不想去完全归咎是Christian Laettner的诅咒。没有人能够总是赢家。我们有时 必须去学习。几乎所有能够连胜的队伍之中都有一些人不常当赢家。Jaric从快艇队来， Davis从不安定的一队跳到另一个不安定的队伍，还有James。有些球员比较幸运， 当Trenton Hassell在Michael Jordan离开三年之後去到公牛队时，Madsen被联盟的防守 冠球队选中。有些人在大学时的优异表现或许有些帮助，虽然在NBA的层级学习才是 重点。 : "It's a hard thing [to fight losing] in an 82-game schedule," Wittman said. : "It's a little easier when you play 30 games in college, when you're playing : once or twice a week. It's easy to fall into a losing streak or you play with : losing teams for a number of years. But I can't allow that." Wittman说到"要在82场的比赛中去与失败搏斗是很困难的事。在大学你只需要打30场球， 且你每周只要打1到2场。掉进连败纪录或者与一些失败的队伍打上个好几年是很容易的 事情，但我不容许那样的事情发生。" : Each of Minnesota's past three seasons has been ruptured either by a coach's : firing (Flip Saunders in 2005, Casey this week) or by a roster-rattling trade : (Wolves-Celtics in 2006). That doesn't help. In fact, it offers easy excuses : outside of a player's accountability. 灰狼队过去的三个球季，每个球季都发生球队破裂与重组的事情，不管是总教练的变动 (Flip Saunders在2005年，今年是Casey)或者是球员名单的改变(灰狼与赛尔迪克在2006年 的交易)。这些对球队并没有帮助，事实上，反而帮球员找了个容易的藉口去推卸他们的 责任。 : When will these Wolves start to get it? When they hold themselves to a higher : standard, like Nash. When they police each other the way John Stockton and : Karl Malone did with Jazz teammates under Sloan. When they put the group : before the individuals ... and don't wait for another coach to get fired. : "You see it in the way they react with one another on the floor," Wittman : said. "Are they helping one another? Away from the floor, there's not a lot : of teams anymore that have eight or nine guys hang out on the road together : or go to dinner. But on the floor, you see it." 什麽时候灰狼会开始领悟到这些??什麽时候他们会对自己有着和Nash同样高的标准?? 什麽时候他们才会像John Stockton与Karl Malone在Sloan指导下那样的合作无间?? 什麽时候他们才会把团队看的比自己个人重要?且不要等到另一个总教练再被开除。 "你会看到他们在球场上互助合作。"Wittman说"他们私下也帮助对方吗?一但离开球场， 已经没有很多球队会8,9个人一起走在路上或者一起吃顿饭了。但是在球场上，你会看到。" --
