[shawncarter (Duffy Huang)]

身為老尼克球迷現在居然還滿懷念以前的Miller Time,所以來翻一下這篇.

Reggie Miller will be a TNT analyst alongside Marv Albert and Steve Kerr for
the NBA All-Star game next Sunday in Orlando, Fla., with the network airing
exclusive coverage of All-Star weekend starting Thursday.

R.Miller將會在下周日和Marv Albert和Steve Kerr一起擔任TNT的NBA全明星賽球評,
全明星周末將會在禮拜四於佛羅里達州奧蘭多開始,由TNT獨家轉播.

The former UCLA star knows the scene well, having played in five All-Star
games during a distinguished NBA career (1987-2005) spent exclusively with the
Indiana Pacers.

這位UCLA畢業的球星對於全明星賽事十分熟悉,曾經在其突出且終身溜馬的NBA生涯
(1987-2005)中五度入選明星隊.
(譯註:"才"五度?)

Raised in Riverside and currently residing in Los Angeles, Miller, 46, scored
more than 25,000 points and made more than 2,500 three-pointers during a career
that included several memorable playoff battles against the New York Knicks and
a trip to the 2000 NBA Finals against the champion Lakers.

現年46歲的Miller來自加州的Riversider,現居LA,生涯累積得分超過兩萬五千分並且投
進超過兩千五百個三分球,還曾經數度在季後賽對上尼克的比賽中有著令人難忘的表現,
同時於2000年的總冠軍賽和冠軍湖人隊對抗.

Miller will help call Monday night's Lakers-Portland game on TNT.

Miller會在禮拜一湖人對拓荒者的比賽中為TNT擔任球評.

What's it like being an All-Star — the perks, benefits, the whole experience?

Q:談談入選全明星隊的感覺是怎樣--有那些好處,利益還有整體的經驗?

"There's two different levels. Getting voted in by the fans, which can be a
popularity contest decided by a guy in his basement clicking 'Reggie Miller'
a million times, and being a reserve selected by coaches. To me, it means more
going in when selected by your peers.

"入選全明星有兩種不同的方式.球迷投票,常常會變成人氣比賽,可能會是某個人在自家
地下室然後點"Reggie Miller"個一百萬次,或者是以替補身分由教練們選入.對我而言,由
籃球圈的同儕投票入選更具意義."

It was always exciting to be one of the 24 guys out of the 300-plus in the
league selected to put on a great spectacle.I would say . . . you always
remember your first. Mine was 1990, where Kevin Johnson and myself — him
coming from Cal, me from UCLA — were the only first-timers. I remember walking
into the locker room seeing Michael Jordan,Charles Barkley, [Larry] Bird,
[Patrick] Ewing, [Isiah] Thomas, Robert Parish and it was like,
'I'm just going to go to this corner and be in awe, basically.

"能夠從全聯盟三百多個球員中被選為最好的24人並在盛大的場面上登場永遠都令人興奮,
我會說...你永遠會記得你的第一次.我的第一次是在1990,和KJ-他來自加州柏克萊,我則是
UCLA-我們兩個都是明星賽菜鳥.我記得走進休息室裡看到MJ,巴克利,大鳥,Ewing,笑笑湯,
酋長Robertt Parish,那感覺就像是"我不小心闖入這個角落然後只能充滿了敬畏,基本上
來說"

' Being 23, 24, in there with all of those guys who are all Hall of Famers now.
It's quite an experience. There were gift bags and swag, but who cares about
that? What I remember is everyone keeping the ceramic nameplate above their
locker, getting them signed, and our shorts and sweats autographed. Just being
in the same vicinity with those same guys you'd be tripping, grabbing, battling
against all year for a championship was the best thing."

"23,24歲就能夠和滿滿的名人堂球員處於一處,這是個很特別的經驗.他們會給你個禮物袋
然後裡面有些紀念品,但是誰在乎這個呀?我只記得大家都把櫃子上磁製的姓名牌帶走並且
其他球員簽名,還有我們的短褲和熱身衣全部都簽了名.單單只是和這些你一整年都為了冠
軍盃爭個你死我活的傢伙同處一室就已經是最棒的部分"

What unique things do you guys at TNT have planned for this year's coverage?

Q:今年在TNT的轉播裡你們有沒有計畫要做些什麼特別的事情?

"For the slam-dunk competition, you know that show 'Sport Science?' We'll be
measuring with a sensor in the net the velocity, trajectory, the force of all
those dunks and be able to say, 'That one's in comparison to someone dropping a
brick off a 10-story building,' or whatever it is. That'll be cool. The
technology of a broadcast evolves so much, and Turner does a great job of being
cutting-edge. They'll also show and compare the biggest dunks, like when Shaq
ripped the rim off the backboard, Shawn Kemp's, [Darryl] Dawkins'."

"今年的灌籃大賽裡,你可知道我們打算怎麼展示一下所謂的"運動科學"?我們將會透過一
些籃網上的感應器去測量每個灌籃的速度,彈道和力量,然後我們就能說一些像是"這個灌
籃的力量好比把磚頭從十樓丟下來!"這類的話.這會超酷的.轉播的技術時再進步很多,
Turner(某種轉播器材?)完全就抓到了最精彩的鏡頭.他們也會拿一些經典的灌籃出來比較
像是Shaq灌爆籃版啦,Shawn Kemp的灌籃啦,Dawkins的等等."

Of the Lakers and Clippers, who's better now and who'll be the last team
standing?

Q:你認為目前快艇和湖人來比誰比較出色?誰會是最後出線的隊伍?"

"The Clippers are more exciting with Chris Paul, the addition of Caron
Butler, Lob City and all that. But there's something to be said about a guy
with five championships who leads the league in scoring. All [Kobe Bryant]
wants to do is win and he has two 7-footers down low. I know they're struggling
to score with Mike Brown putting in his new system, but their defense is
keeping them in every game and defense still wins championships. I just think
the Lakers are a tough out over seven games. The Clippers are exciting, but
until they win a postseason series, I'm going to err on the side of Kobe, Pau,
Fish and Bynum."

"快艇有了CP3之後令人很興奮,還要加上Caron Butler和CP3+Griffin的空中接力灌籃秀
等等.但是你絕不能小覷一個擁有五枚冠軍戒的得分王.Kobe要的就是贏球,再加上兩個
七呎長人看守禁區.我知道他們在得分方面因為MB的新戰術系統陷入掙扎,但是他們仍
然靠著防守贏得比賽,而防守正是贏得冠軍的不二法門.快艇會令人很振奮,但除非他們
贏個季後賽系列,不然我還是會保守押注在KB+Pau+老魚+Bynum"

What have you taken from the Jeremy Lin phenomenon?

Q:你怎麼看林書豪的奇蹟表現?

"It's fantastic for the league. There are guys on the end of benches in high
school, college and the NBA saying, 'If I just had that one shining moment
. . . .' [Lin] was ready to be cut for Mike James, he got in that game vs. New
Jersey and made the most of it. That's what I tell all the kids who come to my
summer camps: 'You'll get a shot, it's about what you do with it.' Great story.
"

"對整個聯盟來說都是棒透了.每個待在高中,大學,NBA球隊板凳末端的傢伙都會想著"要是
我也能有像那樣發光發熱的時刻..."林書豪原本都要因為球隊要簽Mike James而被釋出,
卻在對紐澤西的那場比賽大放異彩.這就是我每年在自己的夏季籃球營告訴小朋友的,
"你總是會得到一個機會,重點是你到底要怎麼把握機會"很棒的故事."

Does he have staying power?

Q:你覺得他有能力留下來嗎?

"As big as they're building him up, they'll tear him back down. It's one thing
to do this against New Jersey, Toronto, Washington, Utah, the Hornets, and
every point guard kills the Lakers, but after these bottom dwellers, I want to
see him against [Derrick] Rose, [Rajon] Rondo, Paul, Tony Parker. I want to see
more body of work, versus upper-echelon players."

"當他越受到追捧,也會有同等大的力量想要擊敗他.對抗紐澤西,多倫多,華盛頓,黃蜂是一
回事,再說隨便一個控球後衛都能打爆湖人隊,但是除了這些後段班,我想看看他對上
Rose,軟豆,CP3,Parker.我想看看更拼命的表現,當他對上前段球員的時候."

How do you project your beloved Knicks to fare?

Q:你有什麼建議給你"最愛"的尼克隊?

"The pink elephant in the room is Carmelo Anthony and how he meshes. Lin has
been a dream for Amare [Stoudemire]. Look at how he, Landry Fields, Tyson
Chandler are running to fight for the wings. When Carmelo was playing,
the ball stopped, he had Velcro hands. He can't do that anymore. They need to
get him the ball with like six seconds left on the [shot] clock, not 20.
Obviously, it wasn't successful before the Jeremy Lin story began. That said,
if they want to beat the upper-echelon teams, they need Carmelo — they need
both — with the goal to finish between third or sixth in the East to avoid
Miami and Chicago."

"Carmelo和他的困境是顯而易見卻被忽略的議題.林書豪是阿罵夢寐以求的控衛.
看看他和Fields,拳王在兩側是如何作戰的.但是當甜瓜上場的時候,球的流動就停滯了,
他手上簡直有魔鬼粘.他不能這樣下去.他們應該在進攻時間剩六秒的時候再傳給他,
而不是還剩20秒就讓他持球.在林書豪崛起之前就已經很明顯的證明那行不通.這代表,
如果他們想要打贏前段球隊,他們需要甜瓜--他們必須兩者兼備--也需要打進東區第三~
第六以在季後賽閃開熱火隊和公牛隊."

What'd you think of the post-lockout, tightly scheduled first half?

Q:你怎麼看封館和緊湊的上半季?

"Ugly basketball. You can't sugarcoat it. Shooting percentage and scoring is
down. [Portland forward] LaMarcus Aldridge, Kobe, Chauncey Billups, Manu
Ginobili have all been hurt. Guys are tired and sore. It may get uglier with
so many more games left and no chance to recover. If you're not Miami, Chicago
, Oklahoma City or the Spurs, you just want to make the playoffs and get to a
situation where there's no more back-to-backs. Right now, it's all about
 health."

"籃球變超難看.你無法粉飾這個事實.命中率和得分都下降了.LaMarcus Aldridge, Kobe,
Chauncey Billups, Manu Ginobili等人都受傷.球員疲於奔命.這可能還會越來越糟,並造
成無法挽回的傷害,想想還有那麼多沒打完的比賽.如果你不是熱火公牛或是雷霆馬刺等
爭冠球隊,你的願望大概只是想打進季後賽然後不用連兩天出賽.當下,保持健康是唯一的
重點"

Who's going to the Finals?

Q:你猜誰會打冠軍賽.

"The West is wide open. OKC ran out of the gates, but they don't scare me.
I look at Dallas now. Dirk [Nowitzki] has found his conditioning, and if it's
OKC-Dallas, you know what you're getting from Dirk, [Jason] Kidd and [Jason]
Terry. If Rose and Rip Hamilton get healthy, [the Bulls] could get Miami, but I
lean toward Miami in the East now."

"西區很難講.雷霆目前領先,但是他們還嚇不倒老子,我看好小牛隊.Dirk開始進入狀況,
如果西區冠軍賽是小牛對雷霆,Dirk,Kidd和Terry的表現可期.如果說Rose和Hamilton能
保持健康,公牛可能打贏熱火,但是我現在是傾向熱火會是東區冠軍."

心得:花了一個半小時...終於翻完了,好累.
