Rudy Gobert Will Prove You Wrong Again by Talor Griffin
《SLC Dunk》
The often overlooked All-NBA center is looking to take yet another leap in
his game next season.
◎Rudy Gobert準備好要再打一次你的臉了 by Taylor Griffin

　　
Rudy Gobert has made a living on proving people wrong. He’s been passed on,
overlooked, underappreciated, and misevaluated. This has shaped his entire
being and made him the intense competitor that he is.
　　
NBA的數年生涯下來，Rudy Gobert已經打了很多人的臉。就算是選秀大會上被跳過、被忽
視、被低估、被錯看，這些都無法擊敗他，反而造就了他積極渴望的競爭意識，使他更為
強大。
　　
　　
Gobert was selected 27th in the 2013 NBA Draft by the Denver Nuggets, later
to be traded to the Utah Jazz for a second-round pick and cash
considerations. 26 NBA prospects were drafted before Gobert, and he hasn’t
forgotten about it. He wears the number 27 on his jersey to keep him reminded
of this and to maintain his mental edge in preparing, training, and
performing. Gobert now towers over the entire 2013 draft class, and has the
most win shares out of any pick with 30.4.
　　
2013年首輪的第27順位，金塊選了Rudy Gobert，隨後拿來和爵士換了一支二輪籤和一筆
現金。為了隨時提醒自己不要忘記這件事情，Gobert選了27號當他的背號。幾年過去了，
Gobert的表現在13梯的所有新秀球員中名列前茅，以30.4的win shares高居第一。
　　
　　
Draft night was just the beginning of Gobert’s journey against critics and
experts. He was sent to the NBA D-League during his rookie year after not
appearing ready to play at an NBA level. He only appeared in 45 games for the
Jazz during the 2013-14 season, and averaged under 10 minutes a game in those
stints. The Jazz went 25-57 that season while Gobert rode the bench and
hopped back and forth between the D-League. This didn’t stop Gobert from
improving, as he continued to fuel his fire and work harder each day, with
hopes of one day proving everyone wrong.
　　
綜觀Gobert至今的NBA生涯，他面對的一直是各方專家的不看好，以及來自四面八方的批
評；選秀之夜的挫折，對他而言不過只是個起頭罷了。新人年裡，Gobert被認定還不足以
應付NBA的水平，因此被下放到了發展聯盟。這年他在爵士隊只出賽了45場，平均上場時
間不到10分鐘；同一年裡，爵士只取得了25勝57負的戰績。在板凳上和發展聯盟浮浮沉沉
的一季，並沒有熄滅Gobert的鬥志，他日復一日的努力訓練，渴望有天能夠證明自己，證
明所有人都看錯了。
　　
　　
This hard work paid off immensely for Gobert in the following season, and he
proved he was an NBA-caliber player. He played in all 82 games for the Jazz
in the 2014-15 season, and increased in nearly every statistical category,
averaging eight points, nine rebounds, and two blocks in 26.3 minutes per
game. Gobert finished third in the NBA’s Most Improved Player voting, and
had already proven many wrong at that point in his career. But he wasn’t
finished.
　　
刻苦的鍛鍊很快地便在第二年獲得了回報，Gobert打滿82場比賽，幾乎在所有數據都有所
成長；每場26.3分鐘的上場時間裡，留下平均8分、9籃板及2火鍋的成績。另外他也在當
季最佳進步獎的票選中獲得第三名。
Gobert已經證明他能夠在NBA站穩腳步，也讓外界對他的看法有所改變，但對他來說，這
還遠遠不夠。
　　
　　
He came out strong again in 2015-16, but was hindered by an MCL injury that
kept him out of 21 games. Gobert continued to show the NBA that he was a
force to be reckoned with, and occasionally graced national highlights with
ruthless swat, big-time dunks, and thunderous alley-oops. The Jazz missed the
playoffs by a sliver that season, and that drove Gobert even more as that was
one of his highest goals as a leader of the team.
　　
2015-16的球季中，Gobert變得更加強壯，但也因為內側副韌帶的傷勢影響，缺席了21場
比賽。他持續證明自己的真材實料，用毫不留情的火鍋和氣勢萬鈞的灌籃來彰顯自己巨大
的存在。
這個球季，爵士差一名就能擠進季後賽的行列，這個遺憾讓Gobert更加充滿野心；對他而
言，帶領球隊打進季後賽是他自詡球隊一哥的目標之一。
　　　　
　　
2016-17 was Rudy Gobert’s coming out party. He exploded onto the scene for
many casual NBA fans, and showed strong signs of improvement in nearly every
area. During most of the season he led the NBA in blocks, defensive box
plus-minus, and defensive win shares. Being an acclaimed “one-way player”,
Gobert also spent time as the league leader in offensive rating, field goal
percentage, and true shooting percentage. He proved many critics wrong with
his offensive improvement in 2016, averaging 14 points per game on an
incredible 66 percent.
　　
2016-17的球季是Gobert大爆發的一年，他可以說是在全方位都有著明顯的進步，在火鍋
、DBPM和DWS等等防守數據雄踞榜首大半個球季。雖然被定位成是守優於攻的球員類型，
但其實他在ORtg、投籃命中率、真實投籃命中率等等進攻數據也一度高居全聯盟第一。
他用每場平均14分，投籃命中率66%的數字，狠狠地打了那些不看好他、批評他的人的臉
。
　
　　　
But even then, it was not enough to convince players, coaches, media and fans
of him being worthy of an NBA All-Star bid.
　　
但儘管他的表現如此出色，依然沒有讓他獲得球員、各隊教練或是媒體的青睞，這一年裡
，Gobert沒能入選明星賽。
　　
　　　
Gobert missed a deserving spot as an All-Star in New Orleans, and continued
to wreak havoc on the NBA in the months following his snub. In the month of
March, Gobert posted outrageous stat lines including his 35 point, 15
rebound, 4 block performance on March 22nd against the New York Knicks. He
also posted a 16 point, 23 rebound, 3 block, 3 steal performance against the
Sacramento Kings on March 5th in a game in which he tipped in the winning
basket at the buzzer. Gobert used the All-Star snub to motivate him even
more, which was painful for many NBA teams.
　　
再一次嘗到不被肯定的滋味，Gobert決定以肆虐各隊的禁區來作為反擊。3月5號對上國王
的比賽，他拿下16分、23籃板、3火鍋、3抄截，並用一記再見補籃絕殺了國王；3月22號
對上尼克，他更進一步砍下35分、15籃板和4火鍋。沒能入選明星賽這件事，給了Gobert
更多的動力，也讓大家知道他是絕對不好惹的。
　
　　　
His incredible push post-All-Star Game helped him to second team All-NBA of
which he deservedly earned. After an incredible 2016-17 season, Rudy Gobert
was named a finalist for Defensive Player of the Year and Most Improved
Player. His performance and statistics backed up a solid argument for his
winning of the awards, but again Gobert fell short. Golden State’s Draymond
Green was selected as DPOY, and Milwaukee’s Giannis Antetokounmpo was
selected as Most Improved Player.
　　
而後半季Gobert驚人的演出，也終於為他博得了一些肯定，他入選NBA的防守第二隊，同
時也獲得最佳防守球員以及最佳進步獎的提名。但結果就像我們知道的，Gobert在最佳防
守球員的票選上輸給了勇士隊的Draymond Green，而最佳進步獎則頒給了公鹿隊的
Giannis Antetokounmpo。
　　 　　

Now with former Jazzman Gordon Hayward out of the picture, Gobert has the
world in his hands as Utah’s lone leader. With the loss of Hayward and
veteran guard George Hill, many have already counted the Jazz out in an
incredibly tough Western Conference. Gobert has made it clear that he doesn’
t plan on the Jazz falling from grace any time soon.
　　
在球季結束後，Gordon Hayward和George Hill相繼離隊，外界普遍不看好爵士在競爭激
烈的西區能夠有什麼好表現，但對身為球隊一哥的Gobert來說，這些話他聽得多了，他可
從來都不這麼認為。
　　
　　　　
Gobert has made a habit of ‘liking’ slander and disrespect on Twitter,
maintaining the chip on his shoulder. Several individuals have criticized
Gobert’s ability to carry a team with Hayward gone. Gobert has also liked
several tweets that aimed at ranking NBA teams, all of which had the Jazz
very low and out of playoff contention.
　　
“He is not. Cannot carry a team by himself.”
　　
“At the moment I see the West tiers as:
GSW
SAS / HOU / OKC
MIN / POR / DEN
LAC / MEM / NOP
UTA / DAL
PHX / LAL / SAC”
　　
These are just two of several examples. You can find a plethora of Gobert
hate tweets by simply going through all of his ‘liked’ tweets.
　　
在Twitter上，有些人會批評Gobert的領導能力，認為他不足以在Hayward走後負起領導球
隊的責任；另外也有些人將爵士評為一支無法進入季後賽行列的弱隊。Gobert會去「讚」
那些針對他的誹謗或是輕視的言論，這讓他的鬥志高昂，持續猛烈地燃燒。
　　
「不行。他不是個獨自帶隊的料」

「西區隊伍在我看來就是…
勇士
馬刺/火箭/雷霆
灰狼/托荒者/金塊
快艇/灰熊/鵜鶘
爵士/小牛
太陽/湖人/國王」
　　
上面只是其中兩則而已，如果有興趣的話，去Gobert的twitter上「按讚的項目」找找，
你可以找到一大堆類似的批評。
　　
　　
This disrespect shouldn’t be unfamiliar for Gobert, who has faced similar
criticism throughout his entire NBA career. From what we can tell, he
remembers comments, tweets, segments, and articles that question his ability
as an NBA player, as well as his team’s ability to compete this upcoming
season.
　　
這對Gobert來說一點也不陌生，他可是從進NBA開始就一直在對抗這些言論。而這些關於
他、關於球隊的所有質疑與批評，一字一句，他全部都記著了。
　　
　　
The NBA in it’s entirety has not yet experienced the summit of Rudy Gobert’
s game, which should be a terrifying thought.
　　
平心而論，現在的Gobert還沒有達到巔峰，讓我們試著想想，封頂的Gobert能打出什麼樣
的比賽…

「不要問，很可怕」
　　
　　
Now with a pass-first point guard at the helm in Ricky Rubio, Gobert is in
position to have his best season yet.
　　
現在隊上有了個傳球優先的控衛Ricky Rubio，Gobert已蓄勢待發，準備在下個球季大展
身手。
　　
　　
If there’s anything that NBA personalities should have learned over the last
couple of years, it’s not to mess with Rudy Gobert. Obviously some have not
heeded this warning, and they should soon experience the great and dreadful
wrath of Rudy Gobert.
　　
從過去這幾年的經驗看起來，我們都曉得最好別讓Gobert不開心，但顯然還是有人沒學到
教訓。那也沒關係，他們很快就能嚐嚐Rudy Gobert的怒火了。
