Ricky Rubio has settled in quickly since being traded to the Jazz - by Kyle
Goon, 《Salt Lake Tribune》
在被交易至爵士後，Ricky Rubio很快地準備好了。
　　
　　
On the day he was traded, some questioned if Ricky Rubio’s tension with Utah
Jazz center Rudy Gobert — the player he once called a “no class act” —
 was behind him.
It’s not. At least not completely.
在他被交易的當天，有些關於他跟爵士中鋒Rudy Gobert-那個他曾經說是沒水準的球員-
是否會不合的疑問。並不會，至少不完全會。
　　
“I’m not going to stop giving him a hard time,” Rubio said Wednesday in
his first comments to Utah media since joining the Jazz. “Spain is better
than France, that’s for sure.”
「我會繼續給他好看。」Rubio週三在加入爵士隊以來第一次對著猶他當地媒體的採訪中
說道。「西班牙比法國強，這無庸置疑。」
　　
Whether they can get along on the court is a different question. The
26-year-old point guard, acquired by the Jazz from the Minnesota Timberwolves
at the end of June, came to Utah within a week and was watching Summer League
games alongside his 7-foot-1 French teammate.
但他們在場上能否合作愉快那就是另一個問題了。這位26歲的控球後衛在六月底被爵士隊
從明尼蘇達灰狼手中盤到陣中，一周內就來到猶他並與他的7呎1吋法國隊友一同觀看夏季
聯賽。
　　
Rubio can’t wait to share the floor with Gobert for actual games.
Rubio等不及在正式比賽中跟Gobert一同打球了。
　　
“I think I can help him play at an All-Star level,” he said. “It’s going
to be great having a teammate that good that fits my game a lot. We’re going
to be buddies.”
It’s at least two months before games begin, but in his one-month tenure as
a Jazzman so far, Rubio gave the impression that Utah has been an easy fit
for him. The Spaniard, who last year was fifth in assists (9.1 apg.) and
ninth in steals (1.7 spg.) in the NBA, has been embraced by the front office
and coaching staff.
「我想我可以幫助他打出全明星的等級。」他說。「擁有這種優秀又適合我的球風的隊友
將會是一件很棒的事。我們會成為好哥兒們。」現在距離開季還有兩個月的時間，但成為
爵士球員已經一個月餘，Rubio認為猶他很適合他。這名上季助攻排名聯盟第五(場均9.1
次)、抄截排名第九(場均1.7次)的西班牙人已經敞開胸懷擁抱爵士制服組以及教練團了。
　　
Rubio said he’s been in contact with coach Quin Snyder at least once a week
since joining the Jazz, discussing schemes for next season. He feels that Utah
’s offense is being designed to his strengths.
Rubio說他自從來到爵士後，已經跟教練Quin Snyder保持至少每周一次的聯繫，討論下賽
季球賽的雛型。他覺得猶他的進攻已經被設計得適合他的優勢。
　　
“I’ve never been with a coach that gets involved that much,” he said. “It
seems like he listens a lot.”
「我從來沒有跟一名如此深入的教練共事過。」他說。「看起來他聽了很多建議。」
　　
Rubio was also flattered to hear Utah general manager Dennis Lindsey say the
organization believes he can be a “facsimile of Jason Kidd,” one of his
childhood idols.
It’s been a far cry from the end of his time in Minnesota, where he often
found himself at the center of a whirlpool of trade rumors. That state of
flux seemed to take a toll on Rubio, who said it was probably for the best
that he split ways with the Timberwolves.
Rubio也對於聽到爵士總管Dennis Lindsey說球團認為他能夠成為「復刻版的Jason Kidd
」--他的兒時偶像之一--這件事感到受寵若驚。現在距離他結束在明尼蘇達那個經常陷入
交易流言的漩渦核心的日子已經好一段時間了。那種情況似乎對Rubio造成了傷害，他說
也許分手是對他以及灰狼隊最好的安排。
　　
“It was a little weird,” he said. “It was time for the the both of us to
move on.”
「那有點奇怪。」他說。「那是我們彼此都該往前進的時候。」
　　
In Utah, Rubio hopes to continue the push he made after the All-Star break
last season, when he averaged 16.0 ppg. and 10.5 apg. He credited much of his
improved statistics to overcoming a nagging elbow injury that plagued him
early in the season.
Rubio foresees more success in Utah, which he hopes can return to the
playoffs next season. He said he thinks he can have success with Gobert, and
the Jazz envision the European pairing as a nightmare pick-and-roll combo.
在猶他，Rubio希望能延續上季明星賽後平均16.0分、以及10.5次助攻這樣突破性的表現
。他用這全面進化的數據證明自己已克服上季初困擾他的手肘傷勢。Rubio預計能在猶他
取得更多的成功，希望能在下季重返季後賽。他說他認為它能夠與Gobert一起取得成功，
而爵士則預見這對歐洲搭檔將成為噩夢級的pick-and-roll組合。
　　
The big question is Rubio’s scoring ability: In his career, he’s only a
37.5 percent shooter. Like Kidd, who improved his shot during his career,
Rubio said he believes he can make strides on offense.
有個很嚴重的問題就是關於Rubio的得分能力：他生涯中只是個命中率37.5%的投籃者。就
跟Kidd也在生涯中提升自己的投籃能力一樣，Rubio說他相信他可以在進攻方面大幅進步
。
　　
“I’ve been working a lot on my pullup,” he said. “I think if I get that
pullup right, that’s the key of my game. Becoming more of a scoring point
guard, coming off pick and rolls, I can improve that.”
「我已經下了很多工夫在我的急停跳投上。」他說。「我想如果我可以運用我的急停跳投
得宜，那會是我比賽的關鍵。成為一個在pick and roll後更能得分的控球後衛，我可以
改善這點。」
　　
Rubio boasts familiarity with several other Jazzmen, none moreso than Jazz
forward Joe Ingles. The two were roommates while playing for FC Barcelona in
Spain, and Rubio, then a teenager, was struck with the responsibility of
showing Ingles the ropes for the European club.
Rubio說其他爵士球員中他沒有比Joe Ingles更熟悉的了。他們兩人在西班牙的巴薩隆納
時曾是隊友兼室友，而當時還是十來歲少年郎的Rubio被賦予了帶領Ingles適應歐洲球會
的責任。
　　
Ingles’ shooting ability (he was third in the league in 3-point shooting
last year) also corresponds with Rubio’s game, the Spaniard said. He’s
looking forward to being teammates with Ingles again, even if the Australian’
s Spanish hasn’t improved in the past seven years.
Ingles的投籃能力(他上季是聯盟中三分球命中率排名第三的球員)也對應Rubio的球風，
這西班牙人說。他很期待跟Ingles再次成為隊友，即便這名澳洲老鄉的西班牙語在過去七
年來一點也沒有進步。
　　
“I’m mad about that,” Rubio jested.
「我對這點真的超不爽的。」Rubio開玩笑地說著。
　　
The Jazz flew in Rubio to San Diego a few days after the trade to help make a
pitch to Gordon Hayward, who agreed to join the Boston Celtics the next day.
Rubio said he harbors no hard feelings toward Hayward whom he thought “made
the best decision for him.”
爵士在Rubio被交易來的幾天後把他一起拉過來聖地牙哥以對Gordon Hayward進行留隊的
遊說，但Hayward隔天便加入了波士頓塞爾提克。Rubio說他對Hayward沒有什麼不好的感
覺。「他做了對自己最好的決定。」
　　
Rubio said he’s excited to continue his career in Utah, which boasts one of
his idols’ jerseys hanging from the rafters at Vivint Smart Home Arena. He’
s a big John Stockton fan, and on his to-do list next year is to meet the NBA
’s all-time assist leader in person.
Rubio說他很興奮能在猶他繼續他的生涯，也自爆他其中一名偶像的球衣就高懸在Vivint
Smart Home Arena的場中。他是個John Stockton的大粉絲，而他下季的待辦事項就是與
這個NBA歷史總助攻次數紀錄保持人見上一面。
　　
“I’ll try to get some advice from him,” he said.
「我會試著從他那邊得到些建議。」他說。
　　
Not a bad place to start.
不算是個太壞的啟航之地。
