Paths Merge for Two Who Made a Run for It

Before he calls his first play for the Los Angeles Lakers, commencing
the next stage of his career, Mike D'Antoni will hobble gently toward
his recent past, in a warm, sentimental embrace.

Mike D'Antoni接下了湖人總教練一職，在他步履蹣跚地走上球場，正式為湖人
執教的首場比賽前，率先迎接他的將是那段既溫馨又感傷的往事。

Fate and the N.B.A. schedule-makers have arranged a timely reunion
Sunday night at Staples Center, where D'Antoni will make his Lakers
coaching debut against a Houston Rockets team led by Jeremy Lin. The
evening will surely begin with a smile and a hug.

彷彿命運早已安排好了這樣的重逢。星期日晚上，D'Antoni執教的首場比賽將
面對的是林書豪的新東家-休士頓火箭隊。這個夜晚肯定會以笑容及擁抱展開序
幕。

Nine months ago, Lin saved the Knicks' season, and nearly saved
D'Antoni's Knicks career. The anonymous point guard and the embattled
coach made beautiful basketball together - a magnificent marriage of
creative playmaking and a free-flowing offense.

九個月前，林幫助尼克隊從一蹶不振的戰績中起死回生，也差點幫D'Antoni保
住尼克教頭的位子。這位名不見經傳的控球後衛與這位善於佈陣的的教練一起
打出了一場接一場的漂亮籃球-完美結合了富創造性的組織能力與自由流暢的進
攻。

The victories and the puns piled up, and for a moment, it seemed all
involved would have their fairy-tale ending.

在那段時間，勝場數及雙關語的數量與時俱增，這一切看起來他們將會有個
童話故事般的結局。

But Linsanity eventually waned, and D'Antoni - saddled with a grumpy
Carmelo Anthony and no clear path to success - walked away. Months
later, Lin was shown the door, too, slamming shut the most riveting
chapter in recent Knicks history.

但最終林來瘋消逝了，而D'Antoni也因為愛鬧彆扭的甜瓜及面對接連的失敗
束手無策而辭職走人。幾個月後，林也被趕出了尼克的大門。尼克史上最動人
的故事篇章就此畫下了句點。

The reunion will be purely celebratory, with D'Antonicoaching the
Lakers, the N.B.A.'s glamour team, and Lin comfortably installed
as a face of the Rockets' future. Both men are unquestionably better
off, having escaped the backbiting and the back-room politics that
hastened their departures.

他們的重逢肯定是充滿喜悅的。D'Antoni現在成了擁有豪華陣容的湖人隊總教
練，林則是成為了火箭隊未來栽培的球星。兩人在逃離紐約那個是非之地後，
境況毫無疑問地變得更好了。

They are also unquestionably better off having shared a short time
under the Madison Square Garden klieg lights.

在麥迪遜花園廣場聚光燈下一同經歷了那段短暫時光後，他們也毫無疑問地
變得更棒了。

"He changed my career," Lin told Houston reporters last week,
referring to D'Antoni. "He changed my life."

林在上星期接受休士頓記者訪問時說到"他(D'Antoni)改變的我的職業生涯，
改變了我的人生。"

It was D'Antoni who gave Lin his first meaningful N.B.A. opportunity,
after he had been passed over in the draft and cut by two teams. And
it was D'Antoni who provided Lin with a wide-open offensive system and
the freedom to run it - to probe and penetrate and pass and shoot and
thrive.
當林在選秀落榜及歷經兩次被裁後，是D'Antoni給了他一線生機。當林在場上
打球時，也是D'Antoni給了他開放的進攻系統與自由去執行戰術-可以從中去
摸索、洞察、傳球、投射、及成長茁壯。

"He's a coach that empowers his players," Lin said in that same
interview, echoing the sentiments of many others who played for
D'Antoni in Phoenix and New York.

林說"他是個會給球員充分自主權教練"，很多在D'Antoni手下打過球的球員也
說過同樣的話。

Yet if D'Antoni provided the template for Linsanity to bloom, Lin
provided D'Antoni with something just as valuable: vivid, spectacular
vindication. In three-plus seasons with the Knicks, D'Antoni rarely
had the point guard or the personnel to make his offense hum the way
that Steve Nash had in Phoenix (and presumably will again in Los
Angeles). When D'Antoni finally got the players who fit, the Knicks
traded them away to get Anthony.

如果說D'Antoni是成就林來瘋的推手，那麼林則是為D'Antoni系統做了最佳的
辯護。D'Antoni在尼克三年多的執教生涯中，一直找不到一個控衛可以像以前
太陽隊的Steve Nash一樣有效執行他的進攻戰術。而當D'Antoni終於找到了他
心中理想的控衛後，尼克卻為了討好甜瓜而選擇讓他們走路。

In that brief window in February, when Lin fueled a seven-game
winning streak and a 10-3 run, with victories against Utah, Dallas and
the Lakers, D'Antoni again had a team that made sense, that played
with a selflessness and joy.

在二月那段短暫的時光裡，林幫助球隊獲得的七連勝及十勝三負的戰績，
D'Antoni又再次擁有一支無私且充滿歡笑的球隊。

"The biggest thing it meant to me is that it leaves me with an
unbelievable memory of two weeks that were incredible," D'Antoni
said Saturday. "I don't care what sport, what walk of life - to be
able to experience that, feel the bond with those guys that were
doing it."

D'Antoni 在周六受訪時說"對我來說，那兩周的經歷不可思議，他不僅讓喜歡
體育的人，而且讓各行各業的人都參與進來，所有一切都超出了尋常，那是
很棒的回憶。"
(此段為新浪的翻譯)

As an engaged spectator, D'Antoni enjoyed the moment along with the
rest of the world. As a coach, one whose New York tenure was more
rocky than not, it emboldened him.

做為一個身歷其境的見證者，D'Antoni與世界上的其他人一樣享受著那段美好
時光。當時他在紐約是一位地位岌岌可危的教練，林的表現也確實鼓舞了他。

"You know what it does, it gives me more confidence as a coach," he
said. "Because you can waver. You can take some hits. You start
doubting things. But Jeremy put everything back in order, and it makes
me go forward."

"說實話，他的表現也增強了我對自己執教體系的信心，我當時也開始懷疑自己
的東西，但林書豪讓一切回歸了正常，他幫助我繼續前進"
(此段為新浪的翻譯)

For years, players have said the same of D'Antoni, whose hallmark
philosophy (other than a high-octane offense) is to give individuals
the freedom and the confidence to thrive. Raymond Felton, Chris Duhon
and Boris Diaw enjoyed their best seasons under D'Antoni and never
replicated the success elsewhere. David Lee blossomed into an All-Star.
Lin turned into a global star.

幾年來，球員們都是這樣形容D'Antoni的：他總是給你自由及自信幫助你成長。
包括Raymond Felton, Chris Duhon, Boris Diaw, David Lee及林都是在他的
執教下打出最好的成績。

It is true that everyone enjoys inflated statistics playing in
D'Antoni's up-tempo system. But there is more to the equation than
pace.

確實，每個人都喜歡在D'Antoni的快節奏系統下打球。但是，比起速度，更重要
的是他平等對待每個球員。

"What Mike does is that he instills a sense of confidence in players,
young and old," Suns Coach Alvin Gentry said.

太陽隊教練Alvin Gentry說"D'Antoni做的就是使球員不分年紀都能充滿自信"

Duhon, who was acquired by the Lakers last summer, said D'Antoni
"gives you that ultimate freedom," and it applies to everyone.

Duhon說"D'Antoni總是給你最大的自由"，對其他人也是一樣。

If a player makes a mistake, "they know they're not going to get
yanked out right away," Duhon said. "So now you're playing loose and
confident. And then when you have success, your confidence starts to
build and build and build. That's what he does. He wants you to shoot
. He doesn't care if you go 0 for 10."

即使遇到有球員犯了錯，Duhon說"他們知道自己不會馬上被要求坐回板凳"。因此
現在你可以不受約束、打得更有自信。而當你成功時，你的信心會越來越強。
他就是這麼做的。他就是要你出手。他不在乎你是否會十投零中。"

Nor did D'Antoni flinch when Lin committed six turnovers, or seven or
nine, as long as they were mistakes born of aggression and pure
motives. Lin had the freedom to test his limits and to grow.

不管林在比賽中為了發動攻勢或執行戰術而出現了六次、七次或九次失誤，
D'Antoni還是繼續重用他。林也能自由地測試自己能力的極限以及獲得成長的
機會。

That unwavering support disappeared when D'Antoni was replaced by
Mike Woodson. "It changed," Lin told Yahoo Sports last week.
"Different style, different coach."

然而在新教練伍森走馬上任後，那種堅定不移的支持就消失了。"一切都變了，
"林在上周告訴Yahoo體育說"不同的風格，不同的教練"。

Oddly, it was Lin's emergence that perhaps hastened D'Antoni's
departure. The more Lin thrived, the more D'Antoni felt emboldened
to stick to his system, which Anthony had flatly rebelled against.
When Anthony returned, after missing much of the winning streak
with an injury, he forced the issue, openly admitting he was
uncomfortable in an offense where Lin had primary control.

奇怪的是，林的崛起似乎加快了D'Antoni離去的腳步。林表現越好，D'Antoni
越有信心的執行他的系統。而這個系統卻是甜瓜所斷然排拒的。甜瓜在養傷
期間，球隊卻仍獲勝連連。當他傷癒歸隊後，公開承認讓林掌控主要球權確實
讓自己感到不舒服。

There were loud whispers, too, that Anthony resented Lin's stardom
- a notion that gained heft in July, when Anthony called Lin's
three-year, $25 million contract from Houston "ridiculous."

謠言傳得沸沸揚揚說甜瓜不滿林的鋒頭太健。七月時，他甚至形容火箭開給
林的三年2500萬合約為"荒謬可笑"。

In Houston, Lin again has the freedom to grow. He has a superstar
guard next to him in James Harden, a young roster and a forgiving
market. Lin is still young (24) and still learning as he goes. He
is averaging a modest 10.9 points and 6.7 assists but showing
occasional flashes of brilliance, including a 21-point, 10-rebound,
7-assist game against Atlanta.

在休士頓，林有自由的空間可以慢慢成長。他有一個和他一樣年輕的巨星
後衛哈登，以及一個寬宏大量的市場。林還很年輕並且尚在學習中。他目
前的數據不太亮眼，平均得分10.9分，、6.7次助攻，不過他有時會有令人
眼睛一亮的精彩表現，比如他曾在對老鷹的比賽中單場得到21分、10籃板
及7助攻。

In Los Angeles, D'Antoni has four All-Stars, including Nash and
Kobe Bryant, who swear by his system, and the chance to contend
at the highest levels again.

洛杉磯湖人隊陣中擁有四位全明星級的球員，其中包含了Nash及Kobe，
D'Antoni將會帶領這支明星球隊與其他隊伍再次一較高下。

New York is in the rearview mirror, but the memories are still
rich and meaningful. D'Antoni and Lin no longer have each other.
But they will always have Linsanity.

紐約早已被拋在腦後，但是那些回憶仍舊珍貴且意義非凡。或許D'Antoni
與林從此分道揚鑣。但，林來瘋將永存兩人心中。
