SEATTLE -- Derek Fisher has been in the league 11 years now and the only
thing that he has done is be consistent.  It doesn’t matter if he’s coming
off the bench or in the starting line up, Derek plays with an intensity and
passion that garners respect from his teammates and the attention of opposing
teams.
Fisher目前已經是聯盟中打了11年的老將了，而他目前所專注的事情就是維持一貫的表現
。無論他是打先發或是板凳，對他來說他永遠都能維持一定的強度和熱情，並且獲得隊友
的尊敬和來自於對手的敬畏。

Drafted by the Los Angeles in the first round in 1996, Derek came into the
league prepared to be successful.  He was a very important piece of that
teams that won consecutive NBA Championships during the 1999, 2000 and 2001
season in his eight year stint with the team.
1996年第一輪被湖人選上的Fisher，在當時準備從聯盟出發大展身手。在1999~2001三連
霸的過程中，他扮演了奪冠團隊中重要的一塊拼圖。

Derek isn’t what you would call a stats buster but he has made some big
shots during his NBA career.  For me, none is more memorable than last season
during Game Five of the Western Conference Finals while he was a member of
the Utah Jazz that were facing the San Antonio Spurs.
Fisher不是一般我們想像的那種破壞力超強的球員，但在他的NBA生涯中卻有過幾個big
shots的表現。對我來說，沒有什麼比去年他在爵士時打進西區總冠軍戰中面對馬刺隊第五
戰的表現更值得懷念了。

It was earlier in the day that his 10-month old daughter, Tatum, had surgery
and he needed to be with his family so the team started the game without him
and really didn’t expect him to show up at all. “I was told to take as much
time as I needed and everyone in the organization understood the situation
that I was facing.”
當天比賽前，Fisher的女兒接受手術並且他的家人需要他在身邊陪伴，所以比賽開打前他
並沒有隨隊參賽，而且爵士也不預期當天他能夠上場。"大家讓我知道我可以做我現在需
要做的事情，而且整個團隊都能瞭解我當時的處境"

Derek boarded a plane and flew cross country, only after knowing that Tatum
was going to be okay, to be with his teammates.  The roar of the crowd that
showered him upon entrance to the court in the third quarter was something
that not even Hollywood could’ve scripted better.
Fisher在得知他女兒手術順利後，便即刻買了機票，橫越了幾個城市，準備和他的隊友們
並肩作戰。即便連好萊塢電影，都難以描述當時他在比賽的第三節，出現在爆滿觀眾面前
的時刻，以及爆滿觀眾給予他的歡呼。

The Pilots were updating him the score during the flight and he was already
in his uniform ready to go and soon as the plane landed.  Unfortunately the
game didn’t end as we would have liked to have seen on the silver screen and
the Spurs advanced to the Finals and went on to win the NBA Championship.
他在飛機上時，就不斷即時更新當時場上比數的變化，而且他也換好了球衣，準備飛機落
地時立即奔往賽場。可惜的是，比賽的結果並不如我們常從螢光幕上看到得那樣幸福美滿
，爵士仍舊輸掉了系列賽，讓馬刺挺進總冠軍戰，並拿下總冠軍頭銜。

 “Yes, I wish it could’ve turned out differently too but what we
accomplished during my stay in Utah was something to be proud of.”
"是的，我知道我並沒能讓整個局面翻轉，但我相信當時在爵士的生涯是我一輩子值得驕
傲的"

Fatherhood isn’t something that Derek Fisher takes lightly.  “Being a
professional athlete, we are conditioned to be goal oriented and focused on
winning and it puts you in a mind set where you are always thinking about
yourself."
Fisher說到身為父親的並非如何的了不起。"身為一個專業的運動員，我們都要永遠準備好
自己上場比賽，並且專注於如何贏得勝利，當你想到你自己責任的時候，你永遠會把這放
在心理"

"When you have children all of that instantly changes and that’s when you
truly begin to develop spiritually and mentally as a Man.”
"當你有孩子，而他的狀況隨時都在變化時，這就是你要開始去建構你的精神和心理層面
，並且學習成為一個男人"

Humility and true appreciation for the gift of life are lessons that were
taught to Derek by his Father early on.  “Fatherhood is such powerful word,
a powerful experience, its life changing."
人性還有真心相愛的禮物，是Fish的父親教給他的人生功課。"為人父親之道是如此有力
量的言語、如此有力量的體驗，去體驗人生的轉變"

"It’s a blessing to be a Father; my children have added so much to my life
and allowed me to put things in proper perspective.”
"為人父親是上帝的恩賜，我的孩子為我的生命增添了很多色彩，並讓我永遠從光明面
去看待任何事情"

On July 20, 2007, Fisher re-signed with the Los Angeles Lakers as a free
agent. While going through the process of finding the proper care for Tatum,
the doctors gave Derek a list of five cities that had a hospital with the
medical facilities to accommodate the needs of his daughter and Los Angeles
was one of those cities on the list.
2007年7月20日，Fish用FA的身份和湖人再續前緣。當他為他的女兒尋找他適合前往的城
市的過程中，醫生給了Fish五個有足夠醫療資源可以讓他女兒得到適當的醫療的城市，而
洛杉磯就是這五個城市的其中之一。

“Seriously, it was an answer to prayer when the deal was finalized.  I’m so
thankful to be welcomed back into this organization with open arms and to
familiar surroundings.”
"認真的說，當這個合約敲定之後，對一個祈求者來講是一個答案。我對這個球隊張開雙
臂迎接我的回來，以及一切親切的環境，我對此感到無比的感激"

“It is my belief that when you have an understanding of why you are here and
what your purpose in life, it will allow you to grow and lead your family in
the path of success and the decisions that you make are spiritually based
which gives me great confidence in knowing that everything is going to be
alright.’
"當你瞭解到為何你會身在此處？你的人生目標為何時，你就會從中去成長，然後引導你的
家庭走入你成功的道路上，而你所做的任何決定都會讓你的心靈充滿信心，而你將會瞭解
你周遭的每一件事情都會變得美好"，這是屬於Fisher的信念。
