Jeremy Lin, Keep Your Head Up by Mike Garcia 出自lakeshowlife.com http://lakeshowlife.com/2014/12/12/jeremy-lin-keep-head/ Jeremy Lin is the underdog story of the modern NBA. We’re talking about a Harvard graduate with NBA talent, but for whatever reason can’t seem to scratch the starting line up for a contending team. He has the talent to do so. He just needs to have faith. Faith, is a big part of Jeremy Lin. He believes and trusts in God. JLin是一個小人物在現代NBA出頭的勵志故事，是的，我們在談論的是一個擁有哈佛學歷 和NBA天賦的人。但由於一些原因他無法待在一個強隊的先發陣容中，但他有天賦待著， 他需要的只是信念。信念，是JLin本身一個重要的組成部分，他相信信任上帝。 Faith in himself, is exactly what Jeremy Lin needs. We know he has talent. He’s bigger than most point guards in the NBA. We know he can run the pick-and-roll with proper spacing, and make excellent decisions with the basketball. We know he can blow by defenders and shoot the three accurately enough to keep defenders honest. We know he’s an above average passer, who is likely to be the only guy who throws Wesley Johnson lobs from halfcourt with success. We know this about Lin. 相信他自己正是現在JLin所需要的，他自己知道他有天份，他的身材比NBA大部分的控衛 還要高大，他知道他可以創造空間執行擋拆，他能在籃球比賽裡做出最好的判斷。我們 都知道他能甩掉防守者，他的三分能讓防守者乖乖地待著。他有著高於平均水準的傳球 能力，他是唯一能傳球讓Wesley Johnson灌籃的球員。這些我們都知道。 So, what does Lin need to do? This is a different kind of test for Jeremy. After watching his “Linsanity” documentary and answer questions through the media, we know he constantly challenges himself on trying to be better, be perfect. It’s not a reasonable expectation. What is reasonable, is stepping onto the floor and laying it all out. Is that Kobe Bryant challenging you on defense in practice? Is he facing you up? Don’t settle for the jumpshot Jeremy. Attack him. Push off with the left arm. This is a team practice. Kobe Bryant can take it. He’s trying to pull this aggression out of you. So attack. 所以，Lin到底需要什麼? 現在對他是個不同類型的試煉。他在"Linsanity"紀錄片中回 答問題時知道，他正在不斷地挑戰自己讓自己更好更完美。這並不是個合理的期望。 什麼是合理的? 就是走到場上去表現出來。這個就是Kobe Bryant在練習時挑戰你的東西? 別滿足於跳投，攻擊他，用左手去推開他，這是一個練習賽Kobe可以接受的，他在試著 將你的侵略性激發出來。所以，攻擊吧! Who cares if you miss? Who cares if you’re met by a brick wall at the rim? The point is, you’re trying to get to the rim. No one should be able to stop you, not even yourself. If Kobe does it again, just run him over. He’ll respect you for it. It sends a message. The next time you attack, you’ll have better success. Jeremy Lin has the talent. He just needs to keep the faith. 失投又怎樣? 被蓋又怎樣? 重點是你正在試著攻擊籃框，沒有人包括你自己都無法阻擋。 如果Kobe再來挑戰一次那麼就把他輾過，他會更尊敬你。下次他再攻擊你，你就會更進步 。JLin有著足夠的天分，他只需要-保持信念。 *這篇好像是在對馬刺當天但比賽之前低潮的時候，能看到這種文章還滿感動的，對Lin 實力的肯定。 --
