Bynum plays with motivation Alex Gallardo / Los Angeles Times Andrew Bynum dunks the ball on the Philadelphia 76ers' Jason Smith during a game last week. 霸男在Jason Smith面前灌藍 Jackson thinks contract is part of the reason for young center's improvement. Jackson認為想要好的合約是霸男進步的原因之ㄧ By Mike Bresnahan, Los Angeles Times Staff Writer January 10, 2008 NEW ORLEANS -- When Andrew Bynum became the youngest player ever drafted, the Lakers were cautious about the time frame for his development. 當霸男成為最年輕的新秀時 , 湖人就對他的成長時程非常謹慎 "Certainly at 17 years old going on 18 years old, he has a long way to go," Lakers General Manager Mitch Kupchak said in June 2005. "We don't know what he's going to be like in two or three years, but if he works and he's competitive, he has a chance to be a very, very good center and there just aren't that many centers." 湖人的總管酷胖在2005六月時說:他才只有17歲剛要進入18歲, 的確還有很長的路要走, 我們不知道兩三年後他會變成怎樣, 但如果他起成功了成為一個可用的球員並具備競爭 力, 他有機會變成一個很好的中鋒, 難得的是好中鋒並不多 Related Stories - Lakers make it one more for the road Now that Bynum has taken another massive developmental step in his third NBA season, Coach Phil Jackson was asked Wednesday if there was anything that could have made it happen sooner. 現在是霸男在NBA的第三季, 他已成功的踏出穩健且成熟的腳步, 禮拜三的時候有人問 Jackson: 是什麼原因加快了他的成長? He paused for seven seconds before answering. "No." 沒什麼特別的 In what way? 怎麼說 "It's the idea of 'OK, yeah, I've got to dedicate myself to this process and that's a start.' Now you find someone that's going to be your workout guy. 這就好像是你要去努力達成某件事, 你需要一個開始. "You start it by saying, 'I'm an alcoholic, I need to go to AA.' It's the same process: 'I need to get in the best possible shape I can. I need to have a vested interest in that.' As soon as you do that, you turn the corner." "就像一個酒鬼說他要去Alcoholics Anonymous 嗜酒者互誡協會, 這是同樣的過程" "我要去達到最理想的目標, 我要在其中得到最大利益" "當你開始這麼做時, 情況就開 始好轉" What motivated Bynum? 是什麼動機讓霸男開始奮發? "My guess is his contract," Jackson said. "Dollars are green. The idea, that 'Hey, it's coming up, I've got to get some traction here. This process is real short.' " Jackson: "我覺得是合約, 錢是美妙的" As part of the collective bargaining agreement established in 2005, rookie contracts were shortened from a maximum of five years to only four years. Bynum is in the third year of his rookie contract, although the Lakers and Bynum could eventually negotiate up to a five-year extension that would keep him with the Lakers through 2013-14. 霸男的新人合約是4年,今年已經是第三年了, 未來湖人可能會跟霸男簽下延長合約直到 13-14球季 Until then, they're happy with what they've got, regardless of time frame. "When Andrew came to the Lakers, he sat down and made a commitment to us -- even though he was 17 years old and inexperienced, he was going to work as hard as he could at this process," Jackson said. Jackson:"霸男來到湖人的時候, 他承諾雖然他很菜, 但他會非常努力" Although Jackson did allow that he nudged Bynum often last summer . . . Jackson承認他在去年夏天時常常刺激霸男 "Many times," he said, smiling. Jackson was not thrilled by the advertising for a local casino plastered across the wall in the visitors' locker room at New Orleans Arena. Jackson並沒有被New Orleans Arena客隊休息室牆上的Casino(賭場)廣告所吸引 "I'm surprised that the NBA is allowing these," he said. "It's just not appropriate." "我很驚訝NBA容許這種事, 這顯然不太適當" There is also casino advertising inside the visitors' locker room at the United Center in Chicago, Jackson's former home with the Bulls. 其實他的老東家公牛隊也讓Casino在客隊休息室打廣告 ----------------------------------------------------------------- 翻的很爛, 而且翻完覺得沒啥內容 --
