Gortat Prospers From Rejections

鍋貼的火鍋店生意興隆

In order to get somewhere in life, you can’t be afraid of rejection.
That certainly applies to Suns center Marcin Gortat.

為了達成自己的夢想，我們不能夠害怕拒絕別人。太陽的中鋒鍋貼也是如此。

Coming into this season, instead of taking charges, Gortat pledged
that he would increase the amount of times he rejected opponents’
shot attempts. Thus far, his strategy is working.

本季鍋貼決定投資火鍋店，而不是呆呆站在那邊等人來撞。到目前為止，這個
策略很成功。

Through eight games, the “Polish Hammer” is tied with the
Thunder’s Serge Ibaka for the league lead in blocks at 3.63 a game.
This is huge jump forward for Gortat, whose 1.5 blocks per game
average allowed him to finish 16th in the league in blocks last season.

八場比賽過後，這根波蘭大錘每場可以賣出3.63份火鍋，跟雷霆的Ibaka並列
聯盟領先。這對鍋貼來說是很大的成功，因為他去年每場只能賣出1.5份火鍋，
全聯盟排名第16。

“I’m just trying to be more aggressive from the defensive end and
protect the rim,” Gortat said. “I understand that once in a while
I’m going to get dunked on. I have to realize that.”

老闆鍋貼表示：他只是試著在防守端表現得更積極，並保護好籃框。

Due to Gortat’s exploits, the Suns currently rank first in the
league in blocks as a team. That is a feat the club has never accomplished.

因為鍋貼火鍋店的生意興榮，太陽隊的團隊火鍋在全聯盟排名第一，這是
隊史上從未達成的業績。

The closest that the Suns have ever come was during the 2007-08 season,
when they averaged 6.32 blocks a game, finishing second in the league
overall. And if Gortat were to become the league leader this season,
it would also mark the first time a Sun has ever achieved that honor.

最接近的一季是07-08年，當年每場團隊賣出火鍋6.32鍋，是全聯盟第二名。
如果鍋貼今年能夠拿到聯盟火鍋王，他會是太陽隊史上第一位拿到火鍋王的球員。

Former Suns forward Larry Nance, who holds the Suns record with 217 blocks
in one season, finished fourth in the league with that total during the
1982-83 season. In hopes of breaking that record, Gortat spent his
offseason improving his leg strength, jumping ability and agility.

太陽前鋒Larry Nance在82-83球季，創下太陽單季賣出217鍋的隊史紀錄，排名當
年聯盟第四名。為了打破前輩的記錄，鍋貼在休賽期間增加他腿部力量、跳躍力、
敏捷度。

Suns strength and conditioning coach Mike Elliot worked with the
six-year veteran on his lower-body strength and explosiveness.

太陽的體能教練艾略特跟鍋貼一起訓練他的下半身力量跟爆發力。

“There were a lot of people complaining about me taking charges, which
in my opinion, is not bad,” Gortat said of last season. “But at the
same time, I should have more blocks. As a seven-foot big man with
my ability to jump and move, I shouldn’t finish the season with a
(one-block-a-game average).”

去年老闆鍋貼表示：雖然他認為製造進攻犯規是個不錯的防守方式，卻很多人都在抱怨。
加上作為一個能跑能跳的七呎大個，他應該試著多去搧火鍋，而不是每場只送出一鍋。

Since blocking shots is not really a technique you can work on in drills,
Gortat was able to benefit from focusing on that part of his game by
making 20 appearances over the summer with the Polish National Team.
By being mindful of his defensive rotations and watching lots of tape,
the big man has been able to make shotblocking a habit to carry over
into this season.

因為要賣火鍋光靠練習是沒辦法的，所以鍋貼藉著20場國家隊的比賽獲得實戰的演練。
在他注重個人的防守輪轉以及看大量的錄影帶後，讓他能夠在本季把火鍋封阻成為
一種習慣。


“It’s something I’m focused on,” Gortat said. “It’s not the priority,
but it has to be better than last year.”

鍋貼表示：火鍋封阻是我現在正在努力的，雖然它不是最優先的選項，但確實是比上
季還要好。

Thus far this season, the 28-year-old center has three games of five
or more blocks in eight contests. The last time the Suns had a player
with three such games in an entire season was during the 2007-08 campaign.

因為這個理由，這位28歲的中鋒本季已經有三場5+火鍋的表現，上次有太陽球員
在打完整季有此表現是在07-08賽季。

Gortat's improvement goes to show that rejection can make you stronger;
and transversely, becoming stronger can make you better at doling out
rejection.

鍋貼的進步告訴我們拒絕能夠讓我們更強，而變得更強以後能夠讓我們在拒絕
別人時做的更好。




最前面跟最後面的一段裡的REJECTION，我感覺不應該翻成阻攻(火鍋)，比較像是在
講哲理(拒絕)，所以就照著這樣翻了，如果有其他不同的意見歡迎討論。

此篇外電措詞比較隨興，不喜歡者敬請見諒。
