After being traded to the Kings, Johnson didn’t have to think twice about
choosing his jersey number, opting for No. 52 in honor of a close friends
whom he credits with helping jumpstart his NBA career – Sacramento fan
favorite Brad Miller.
JJ被交易到國王後，想都不想就選了52號作為新背號，
原因是要向一位幫助他NBA生涯開端甚多的好友致敬，而那個人就是大米。
“He just taught me the ropes and the dos and don’ts,” says the Wake Forest
product, disclosing the pair developed a tight-knit bond in Chicago. “When I
came in the locker room once instead of staying out and getting extra jumpers
up, he asked, ‘What are you doing, rook? What else do you have to do?’
「大米教導我該做什麼和不該做什麼，有一次當我回到休息室而不是繼續留下來多練點跳
投時，他就問我：你在做什麼?不練球那你要做什麼?」JJ解釋道，當時這位來自威克森林
大學的新人在芝加哥就和大米發展出緊密的關係。
“He always had something positive to say in a funny way that I could accept
instead of bombarding me and yelling at me – he told me to hold strong, work
on my game and get better when I wasn’t playing a lot in my rookie year, and
I did.”
「他總是可以用有趣、我可以接受的方式告訴我而不是對我大吼大叫，他告訴我要保持強
壯、專注於比賽才能越打越好，這些事我在新人年完成度並不高，而我做到了。」JJ說道
。
During an appearance at The Bobby Jackson Foundation Golf Tournament in
September, Johnson was surprised when he felt a pair of large hands slapping
the back of his neck.
當JJ出現在9月份Bobby Jackson基金會舉辦的高爾夫錦標賽時，他很驚訝感覺到有一雙巨
大的手拍他的脖子後面。
“I thought, ‘There’s nobody crazy enough,’ and then I looked back and it
was Brad Miller, and I said, ‘OK, there is someone crazy enough,” says
Johnson with a smile.
「當時我想是哪個人這麼瘋狂，但當我回頭發現是大米時，我立馬知道大米就是這樣一個
瘋狂的人啊」JJ微笑道。
“I have the utmost respect for him, and when I told him I was wearing his
number, he told me to hold it down.”
我非常尊敬大米，而當我告訴他我現在穿52號時，他告訴我要好好保持下去。
Johnson, who’s grown closer to his new Kings teammates both on and off the
court, vividly recalls the first time he squared off against Thornton during
the pair’s rookie season in 2009-10.
“I had a scouting report saying (Thornton) has no conscience,” recalls
Johnson, recounting No. 23 hitting two consecutive three-pointers despite
being closely guarded. “I’d never seen that before – when a man is
contested … and has that kind of confidence. I remind him about it – I know
he’s that capable player and I’m glad to have him on my team now.”
JJ現在不論場上場外都和他國王的新隊友們越混越熟，他回想起在09-10新人球季第一次
對位到MT的時候，「當時球探報告上說MT是一個沒有心臟的男人」，JJ想起當時MT在被貼
身防守下仍連續砍進兩顆三分彈，「我從來沒有看過這麼具競爭力而且有那樣無比信心的
人，我知道他就是有如此能力的球員，而我很高興他現在和我同隊。」
No. 52, who has long held a deep appreciation for die-hard purple-and-black
supporters, aims to electrify the home crowd with his two-way game while
continuing to progress.
52號一直以來都備受國王死忠支持者們所讚賞，如今。JJ要把52號的精神用他的比賽
在沙城的支持者面前詮釋下去。
“My personal goal is just to play basketball – I’ve finally started to
feel comfortable with the game,” he says. “Sitting out your rookie year and
then sitting out a couple of games in your second season while knowing that
you’re better – most of these guys don’t know what that feels like.
「我個人目標就只是想把球打好，我終於開始對比賽感到舒服，當你知道你可以做得更好
，卻在頭兩個球季幾乎都在守開特力時， 那種感受是大部分的人無法裡解的。」JJ說道
。
“(I’ve done) a lot of growing-up. Everything feels great, and now I’m
definitely going to play – and I’m definitely going to play hard.”
「我已經成長了不少，一切都感覺很好，而現在我肯定會上場打好比賽。」
