MIAMI (AP)—Whenever he wants to feel humbled, LeBron James(notes) pops in
the tapes of the 2007 NBA finals
每當詹姆士想要讓自己感到謙虛的時候，他的腦海裡會浮現出在2007NBA總冠軍賽的
挫敗
No matter what, the outcome never changes. He got swept. San Antonio simply
outclassed Cleveland four years ago in the title series, and that still
serves as a colossal source of motivation for James—who makes no secret that
he’s fueled by slights and disappointments.

不管情況到底是如何變化，比賽的結果無法改變，克里夫蘭騎士隊遭到了橫掃，
聖安東尼奧馬刺隊在2007NBA總冠軍賽很明顯實力遠在當年的克里夫蘭騎士隊之上
，這也激起詹姆士的鬥志，他個人也坦言他因為受到他人輕視與對於比賽結果的失望，
點燃了詹姆士對於冠軍的渴望
Since then, he’s won two MVP awards and earned somewhere in the neighborhood
of $200 million. Still, nothing fills the void created by those four losses.

自從那時候開始，他拿了兩座MVP，並且賺了兩億美元，但是沒有任何一樣東西
可以彌補他在07年總軍賽被橫掃的羞辱

Here comes his chance to change that.

James is heading to the finals for the second time, after he, Dwyane
Wade(notes) and Chris Bosh(notes) carried the Miami Heat to a wild
series-clinching comeback victory in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference title
series in Chicago. The season’s final challenge is the Dallas Mavericks, who
visit Miami in Game 1 of the finals on Tuesday night
而現在，有一個機會可以讓他去改變這不堪回首的過往
詹姆士第二次帶領著球隊迎接總冠軍賽的挑戰(07騎士隊、11熱火隊)
與他現在的夥伴偉徳、波許 帶領著邁阿密熱火在東區總冠軍賽第五場，以不可思議的
方式奇蹟似的逆轉比賽，擊敗了實力強悍的芝加哥公牛隊。而現在，他們要面對
這季最後一次的挑戰─達拉斯小牛隊，這場比賽第一場將在美東時間星期二晚上舉行，
由地主邁阿密熱火迎接做客的達拉斯小牛隊。

“I think about it all the time,” James said of that 2007 series. “I even
go back and watch some of those games and see how I wasn’t that good of a
player, especially on both ends of the floor. You just try to use those
moments. I feel like there’s no way I should be out on the floor and the
team that I’m on can’t win a game in a series. I use that as motivation. …
 I’ve got a lot of motivation.”
我始終對於07年的總冠軍賽念念不忘，詹姆士提到：「我甚至會回去看當年那幾場比賽
的影帶，看那些比賽，然後檢視一下自己過往的表現，並且提醒自己以前並不是
這麼優秀的球員，特別是球場上的表現，我自己認為我不能對於球場上發生的一切
置身事外，更何況當我在球場上的時候，我們的球隊無法在這個系列賽取得一場的勝利
，我把這些失敗的經驗化成我個人的動力......，我已經得到很多的失敗了，而這麼多的
挫折，給予我很大的激勵，幫助我向前邁進
What’s transpired in the last 12 months—being called a quitter by his
former fans in Cleveland, getting knocked for a supposed inability to finish,
the continual hits the Heat have taken for the moves they made last summer—
 have only topped off that tank of motivational fuel for James, and he’s
done his part to silence some of those criticisms with an array of
sensational finishes in these playoffs.

在這令人折磨的12個月當中─被克里夫蘭騎士隊的球迷指責為輕易放棄的人，
無法盡自己全力去完成比賽的人物，徹底的在波士頓的主場被擊倒了，而詹姆士在去年
夏天選擇加入邁阿密熱火隊後，隨後而來的抨擊更是毫無間斷，這些抨擊與辱罵，
對於詹姆士而言，無異於是更激起他對世人證明自己能力的渴求，他選擇部分的沉默
，用行動來證明他的能力，這個季後賽，一系列的關鍵時候的處理球，用震驚世人的能力
，成功的走到了總冠軍賽的大門口
Among the highlights: The 10 straight points against Boston to wrap up Game 5
over the now-dethroned East champs in the second round. The nine points in an
11-2 run that decided Game 2 of the East finals against Chicago. The combined
71 feet of three made jump shots in a 97-second span late in Game 5 against
the Bulls, including the shot with 30 seconds left that put Miami ahead for
good after it had trailed by 12 late in the fourth quarter.
在這些精彩關鍵的時刻，對上波士頓塞爾提克第五戰連續拿下十分，在季後賽第二輪成功
擊敗去年的東區總冠軍，而在東區冠軍賽第二戰對上芝加哥公牛隊，一個人在一波11-2
的攻勢當中，拿下了9分，不只如此，在東區冠軍賽第5戰第4節關鍵的97秒中，命中2計
合計71英呎的三分球，在第四節落後分數一度達到12分，詹姆士連續進球，其中有一球
是比賽時間剩30秒的時候投進，成功逆轉比賽的戰局。
Afterward, he called Thursday’s finish the best few minutes of his life.

Might not be overstating things, either.

“We know what kind of player he is,” Bosh said. “We know how bad he wants
to be in this situation. He’s back in the finals. He’s been here before. He
has that pain. He carries that pain with him everywhere he goes. It’s going
to help him. It’s going to help us as a team.”
在比賽結束之後，詹姆士認為在星期四(東區冠軍賽第5場)那場比賽，是他生涯裡表現
最棒的幾分鐘。
確實，這並沒有誇大其詞，這確實是詹姆士生涯裡表現最棒的幾分鐘
賽後波許說：「我們知道詹姆士是什麼樣等級的球員，我們知道他到底有多渴望
重返冠軍賽，而他現在成功重返冠軍賽，他以前經歷過總冠軍賽的洗禮，也有徹底
挫敗的痛苦經驗，他會帶著這些挫折，謹記在心，這些挫折會將給予他許多助益，
這也會幫助我們成為一隻更強悍的勁旅。
He was so good in the East finals that his rank among the game’s greats
became a source of debate Friday sparked, somewhat ironically, by a six-time
NBA champion and Chicago icon. In an interview with ESPN Radio, Scottie
Pippen said his longtime Bulls teammate Michael Jordan may be the game’s
best all-time scorer, but James—in his estimation—could be the game’s
greatest player.

A championship ring could add some credence to that argument.

“That’s what we came together for,” James said. “That’s the goal. The
only goal.”

Anyone who watches James play can marvel at his talents on the floor, of
course.
Including playoffs, his 27.8-point average is third-best in NBA history
behind only Jordan and Wilt Chamberlain. After eight seasons, he ranks 11th
on the league’s list of active scorers—everyone else above him on that list
has played at least five more seasons.


他這些季後賽以來驚人的表現，引發許多人在星期五節目上討論他的偉大程度
與個人排名，有點諷刺的是，在ESPN電視節目中，皮朋說到他多年對友─麥可喬丹，
可能是史上最厲害的得分手，但是詹姆士，在他的推測，可能是史上最棒的球員。
我想，一個冠軍戒指或許可以增加這個論點的可信度。
詹姆士提到“這就是為什麼我們(LBJ+WADE+BOSH)要聚在一起的原因(冠軍戒指)”這就
是目標，唯一的目標。
每一個看詹姆是打球的人會輕易的被他的在場上所展現的天份感到驚訝不已，包含季後賽
，他平均27.8分在nba歷史上僅次於喬丹和張伯倫。經過了八個球季，他在聯盟排名第11位
得分高手，在榜上的其他人最少比他多打5個球季以上。
But where he’s truly impressed the Heat is how he works off the court, the
side they had to learn most in their first season together.

“He has an incredible historical perspective for a young player,” Heat
coach Erik Spoelstra said. “He knows about the history of the game and great
players and championship teams in particular. But he really is a legitimate
student of the game. I always hear him talking about games that happened the
night before. He’s watching all the time. That really does add to his IQ. He
’s a high-motor, hyper guy
但是更令熱火隊驚訝的是他─他在場下所做的努力，幫助他們在合作的第一年需要學習
與調整得地方，而這部分正是現在熱火隊最需要注意的地方
熱火隊總教練艾瑞克史波司抓說到：「身為一個年輕球員，他有驚人的nba歷史背景
、獨到的個人分析，他對於比賽還有偉大球員以及冠軍球隊知之甚詳，他真的在場上場下
都是一個資優生，我總是聽到他提到前一晚的比賽，他始終關心所有的比賽，
他真的是一個對於比賽解讀能力很高的球員，高動力，多才多藝的傢伙。
Sometimes, that would be tough to guess.

Outwardly, he’s tried to keep the stiff upper lip when it comes to the
criticism that has come his way in bunches since deciding to join
 the Heat
last July. When the Heat returned to his old Cleveland stomping grounds for
the first time on Dec. 2, James said he consciously tried not to react to
anything the crowd directed his way, keeping focus on the game instead.

有時候，有些事情卻難以預測
表面上，自從他去年加入邁阿密熱火後，當他面對批評的時候他總是咬緊牙根；而當他
去年12月2號回到克里夫蘭的老家的時候，他說他刻意的不要與向他迎面而來咆哮的群眾
有所衝突，試著讓自己專心在比賽上面。
Did it bother him? Of course.

He wasn’t going to let much of that show then, and he likely won’t let much
of that show now, either.

“I understand a lot of the backlash that came with me going to Miami, but I
understand also that I did what was best for me, what was best for my family
and what was best for me being a professional athlete,” James said. “I
understand what this league is all about. I wanted to team up with some guys
that I understood that would never die down in the moment. The opportunity
presented itself with this great organization, and D-Wade came to me and said
it was possible. We made it happen.”

這有困擾著他嗎?想必是有的
詹姆士說到「我可以理解當我選擇加入邁阿密熱火隊的時候，會有很多反彈的聲音出現
，但是同時我也知道我所做的選擇是對我而言、對我家人而言，更對我身為職業運動員而
言，是最好的選擇，我對於這個聯盟的生態十分熟捻，而我想要與那些到最後一刻
都還可以跟我一起奮戰的人一起打球，一起合作，而這個機會出現在我眼前，
有了一個好的團隊可以加入，然後偉德過來找我，跟我說這是有可能的(the big three)
，然後我們讓它成真了」
He averaged 22 points in the finals against the Spurs four years ago, when
the Cavaliers scored 82 points or less in three of the four games. It was
largely all on him then, and the desire to not shoulder too much of the load
is one of the reasons why he’s in Miami.

The Heat have won 70 games—58 in the regular season, 12 more in the playoffs
—already this season. Four more would provide James the ultimate vindication.

“We’re trying to compete for a championship,” James said.

四年前，他在當年的冠軍對上馬刺的系列賽平均拿下22分，而當時克里夫蘭騎士隊在那次
系列賽只有一場拿下82分，其他三場都比82分低，那時候球隊大部分都依靠他一個人
的個人能力，而不想要個人承受這麼多責任也是其中一個主要的原因為什麼他要
選擇邁阿密熱火隊，熱火隊這季目前贏了70場比賽(58季賽、12季後賽)，4場勝利
最終可以替詹姆士做一次最有力的平反。
詹姆士說：「我們現在正努力嘗試奪得最終的榮譽」
