Joe Ingles认为自己已经是完成品 A basketball player reaches his or her prime around the age of 27, and that was how old Ingles was when he was given his first shot in the NBA. 篮球运动员会在27岁左右达到自己的巅峰，而这正是Ingles首次踏入NBA的年龄。 “I was probably at a point where I thought I was who I was gonna be, I guess, ” Ingles told foxsports.com.au. Ingles告诉foxsports.com.au，「我想，我在某个时候可能已经成为我认为我所将成为的 球员」。 But, that wasn’t all. 但是，这并不是全部的故事。 Ingles had reached a point in his career where he just wasn’t enjoying basketball anymore. Sure, he’d just come off a Euroleague Championship with Maccabi Tel Aviv, but the joy for the game — at least, in a professional capacity — was slowly dwindling. Ingles以往已经在职业生涯中达到了一定成就，而他也变得不再喜欢篮球了。当然，他当 时只是参与马卡比特拉维夫队（Maccabi Tel Aviv）取得欧洲联赛冠军，但是在比赛的乐 趣-至少是在专业能力上-也已逐渐地减低。 Then, he arrived in Utah, where head coach, Quin Snyder, and eventually assistant coach, Zach Guthrie, entered his life and career. 然後，他来到犹他州，总教 Quin Snyder 最终还有助理教练 Zach Guthrie 进入了他的 生活与职业生涯。 “You know, I was talking to (my wife) Renae about it the other day,” Ingles said. Ingles说道：「如你所知道的，有一天我正在和（我的妻子）Renae 谈论这个话题，」。 “A lot of (my improvement) comes down to Quin ‘re-finding’ my enjoyment in it. I think in Europe, I lost that a little bit. I always had it with the Australian team, that was never a question but those last couple of years in Europe, it was slowly fading. 「（我的进步）很多都归功於Quin『重新拾回』我对篮球的乐趣。我认为在欧洲时，曾经 失去了一点点。我在参与澳大利亚国家队时总是享受着这种乐趣，这从来不曾构成问题， 但是在欧洲的最後几年，这项乐趣已经逐渐丧失」。 “It took Quin to give me a lifeline after the Clippers and really support me and help me, and care. The time and effort he put in originally, then when Zach came on board. I owe those guys a lot.” 「在我加入快艇之後，Quin 给了我一条救生索，认真的支持我、帮助我、并关心我。他是 最早投入时间与精力的人，然後在当时 Zach 也跟着加入。我欠这些人很多。」 Snyder, who, like Ingles, has been with the Jazz since 2014, is widely regarded around the NBA as one of the most effective player development coaches, and Ingles is one of his star pupils in that regard. 就像 Ingles 一样，Snyder 自从2014年加入爵士队以来，一直被广泛地认为是 NBA 最能 有效发挥球员才能的教练之一，而Ingles则是他在这方面的明星学生之一。 Ingles entered the NBA as a 6’8, crafty wing, who could effectively run the pick-and-roll and make the odd three-pointer. Two years later, Ingles has emerged as one of the most efficient shooters in the league, as well as an impressive defender; with the extent of the leap the most surprising to him. Ingles 是以一名 6'8" 的智慧型侧翼球员进入NBA，他可以有效地执行挡拆战术，并投进 令人惊艳的三分球。在两年後，Ingles已经成为联盟中最有效率的射手之一，也是一名令 人印象深刻的防守者；进步的程度对他来说相当令人惊讶。 “I think there’s always things you can get better with and stuff like that, ” Ingles said. “A lot of credit (for my leap) goes to them they’ve taken and the care, the effort they’ve put into helping me.” Ingles说：「我认为总是会有像这样能更加精进的东西与事物。（我所取得的进步，）有 很大一部分要归功於他们所付出的关心，与他们为了帮助我们所付出的努力」。 A chance for yet another leap isn’t out of the question, given the Jazz’s volatile off-season. 有监於爵士队在休赛期间的不稳定情况，再进一步的提升并不会是太大的问题。 The team’s star, Gordon Hayward, signed elsewhere — Ingles described the reaction to his now-former teammate’s departure as: “Utah, and the people in Utah, thought the world was ending when Gordon left. They thought the sun wasn’t gonna come up the next day” — and a trade was made for a pure point guard in Ricky Rubio. 球队的明星球员九蛇与其他球队签约 – Ingles 说明对他对於前队友离队的反应：「犹他 州以及犹他州的人们，认为当九蛇远离时世界正濒临毁灭。他们认为明日太阳不会再次 升起-并且交易了一位纯控卫 Ricky Rubio」。 Ingles has already taken a step up from average shooter to sharpshooter and hopes to make even more of an improvement, even as he edges closer to the age of 30. 即使Ingles已经更接近30岁，他已经从一般射手晋升为优秀的射手，并希望能够进一步获 得改善。 “Hopefully more sharper-er sharpshooting,” Ingles joked. Ingles开玩笑说：「希望能有更咻咻咻的优秀射术」， “With our team now, there’ll be different roles for everybody, so I’m going to take all of the opportunities I can. I still feel like I’ve got things I can improve and get better, and obviously Utah does, too, giving me four years (on my contract). 「在我们现在的团队中，每个人都扮演着不同的角色，所以我需要把握所有的机会。我仍 然觉得我还有可以精进并改善的事情，而（根据我的新合约内容）犹他显然也因此再给了 我另外的四年。」 “I owe them for supporting me and backing me with this deal, and I obviously don’t want to let them down. So, I’m ready. I can go back now and play. I’ m pretty excited to get back into it. I’m excited about our team and the year, and excited for myself, just to get out there again. 「对於他们如此支持并协助我的合约，我负有责任并且显然不想让他们失望。所以，我准 备好了。我现在已经可以回到场上进行比赛了。我对於可以回到场上感到很兴奋。我对於 我们的团队与过去的一年感到兴奋、对自己能再次上场感到兴奋。」 “Hopefully my role keeps getting bigger and expands, and, if it does, I feel like I’m ready to take that on.” 「希望我的角色能更形重大，如果真的这样的话，我认为我已经做好准备了。」 With no real ‘go-to scorer’ on this Jazz team, Ingles may have to increase his offensive burden. The Australian wing pointed to Rodney Hood as someone who can make the most of the opportunities at the wing spot, and called on the entire team to step up and make the most of the opportunity. 在这个爵士队中目前并没有真正的「得分手」，Ingles 可能不得不加强他的进攻责任。这 位澳大利亚的侧翼球员指出，在侧翼方面 Rodney Hood 是可以运用大多数机会的球员，并 呼吁整个团队站出来并充分运用机会。 The addition of Rubio, a former teammate of Ingles, is also an indication of the style of play the Jazz may continue to move toward. Ingles 的另外一名前队友 Rubio，也将会是爵士队能够持续前进的球队风格指标。 During the 2016-17 season, the Utah Jazz was the most international team in the league, featuring seven players born outside the United States, representing five other countries. With Rubio in the picture, as well as the signings of Jonas Jerebko and Thabo Sefolosha, that number is set to increase to eight players born outside the US. 在2016-17赛季，犹他爵士队是联盟中最具国际色彩的球队，其中有七名球员出生在美国境 外，代表着另外五个国家。随着Rubio加入阵容，以及与Jonas Jerebko和Thabo Sefolosha签下合约，外籍球员的数目将增加为八名出生在美国境外的球员。 Ingles and Rudy Gobert had already brought that international flavour to the team’s core and even the addition of Ekpe Udoh — who was born in Oklahoma but is coming off an impressive stint with Fenerbahçe — will contribute to the ‘Euro’ style of play that the Jazz will be looking to improve on. Ingles 和 Rudy Gobert 已经将此种国际特色带到球队的核心，甚至还加入了出生在俄克 拉荷马州，但是曾与 Fenerbahçe 队一起缴出漂亮成绩的 Ekpe Udoh，他将会为爵士队 寻求改进的「欧陆」风格做出贡献。 “It’ll be really cool,” Ingles said of the potential of the Jazz’s unique roster. Ingles 针对爵士这份独特名单的潜力指出「这真的很酷」。 “What helps with that is obviously Quin knowing Europe and having coached in Europe; knowing how to play those guys and the style of play. 「这种情况所能带来的帮助显然是因为 Quin 熟知欧陆风格，并曾在欧洲任职教练；也知 道如何运用这些球员与风格」。 “We don’t play a typical style, anyway. It’ll probably get more funky, now that we lost a couple of Americans and got back a couple Euros. Now, it’s on us to sort that out and still be a good team.” 反正我们不会打典型的风格。这可能会变得更加时髦，目前我们失去了几个美国球员，但 加入了几位欧陆球员。现在，轮到我们要好好的调整队型，让它仍然会是一良好的团队。 After spending the 2016 off-season as a part of the Australian Boomers’ Olympic campaign, Ingles’ 2017 has been relatively quiet. 在2016年的休赛期间成为澳大利短期奥运代表队的一份子之後，Ingles在2017年的赛程是 相对沉寂的。 He’s been able to spend most of his time in Australia, taking care of his young twins, Jacob and Milla, while also completing his restricted free agency quite quickly; doing his best to avoid the drama of the intense off-season that surrounded him. 大部分时间他都在澳大利亚度过，并照顾他的双胞胎Jacob与Milla，同时也迅速地渡过 限制性自由球员的阶段；并尽最大努力回避在休赛期间围绕着他的戏码。 “Now that the dust is settled on that whole situation, it’s an exciting opportunity for our guys that are still there,” Ingles said. Ingles说「现在，整体情况已经尘埃落定，对於我们这些仍然在奋战的人来说，这是一个 令人兴奋的机会」”。 “I can’t wait to get back there.” 「我已经迫不及待地要重新面对挑战」。” --
