Of all the thrilling baskets scored in NBA history, there have been few more
fabled than the two Willis Reed hit in the first few minutes of Game 7 of the
1970 NBA Finals. Although they counted for only four points on the
scoreboard, they were worth a million buckets of inspiration in the hearts of
the New York Knicks.
在所有NBA歷史中，令人振奮的得分，很少有比Willis Reed在1970年NBA總冠軍賽第七戰
前幾分鐘的得分更傳奇的了。雖然在得分版上只看的到四分的紀錄，這卻是如此的巨大地
激勵了紐約尼克。
Prior to Game 7, on May 8, 1970, at 7:30 p.m., Reed, the captain and main
force of a multitalented New York Knicks team, was apparently sidelined with
an injury that threatened his team's chances to win the NBA Championship.
Fifteen minutes later he had become a legend, and the Knicks were on the way
to their first NBA title.
時間回到１９７０年五月八日晚上七點半，總冠軍賽第七戰。尼克的老大、也是身為球隊
主力鋒線的Ｒｅｄｄ差點因為受傷而威脅到球隊贏得ＮＢＡ冠軍的機會。１５分鐘後，他
成為了一個傳奇，尼克也贏得他們隊史第一座冠軍。
In the first four games of the Finals against the formidable Los Angeles
Lakers, Reed had scored 37, 29, 38 and 23 points, respectively, while
averaging 15 rebounds. In the fourth quarter of Game 5 he sustained a deep
thigh injury. The Knicks managed to survive that encounter but were
demolished by the Lakers in Game 6.
在總冠軍前四場與難纏的對手洛杉磯湖人的對戰中，Redd分別獲得３７、２９、３８、２
３分，並且令人尊敬的平均抓下１５個籃板。不過在第五戰的第四節他腿部受到嚴重的傷
。尼克在第六戰設法取勝但卻遭到湖人隊摧毀。
The series was tied at three games apiece entering the decisive contest at
Madison Square Garden. New York's Bill Bradley recalled Game 7 in an article
in The New York Times: "We left the locker room for the warm-ups not knowing
if Willis was going to come out or not."
這個系列賽戰成三比三的平手，要在麥迪遜花園廣場進行決一死戰。尼克隊的Bill
Bradley在紐約時報的一篇文章談到第七戰："我們離開休息室去熱身的時候還不知道
Willis是否能夠上場"
At 7:34 p.m. Reed limped onto the court. The crowd went wild, and his
teammates' confidence returned with a vengeance. Reed somehow managed to
outjump Wilt Chamberlain. on the opening tip, then scored the game's first
basket on a shot from the top of the key. He then scored the second New York
basket from 20 feet out.
晚上７：３４，Redd步履蹣跚的出現在球場，觀眾開始陷入瘋狂，他的隊友也充滿信心能
夠復仇。Reed計畫用外圍跳投來面對張伯倫。開賽跳球後就在罰球線頂端頭進這場比賽第
一球，接著再２０呎外投進尼克隊的第二球。
He did not score again, but he didn't have to; he had already inspired the
Knicks to seize the day. New York led by as many as 29 points in the first
half and eventually won the contest, 113-99.
他再也沒有得分過，因為他不需要，他已經起鼓舞了尼克去贏得今天的比賽。紐約上半場
最多曾領先達到２９分，最後以１１３比９９獲得勝利。
Reed was the heart, soul and backbone of the Knicks' 1970 and 1973
championship teams. The 6-9?, 240-pound former Grambling Tiger played 10
seasons in New York and appeared in seven NBA All-Star Games. He was NBA
Rookie of the Year in 1964-65 and NBA Most Valuable Player in 1969-70. He was
selected Finals MVP both years that the Knicks wore the crown.
在獲得冠軍的１９７０、１９７３年中，Redd無疑是球隊的精神、靈魂、堅毅的代表。這
位６呎１０吋的中鋒在紐約打了１０年球，參加過七次明星賽，在1964-65球季獲得最佳
新人以及在1969-70年獲得最有價值球員。在尼克戴上戒指的時候他都被選為總冠軍賽Ｍ
ＶＰ。
Reed was born on June 25, 1942, in Hico, Louisiana, a place so tiny that he
once told Pro Basketball Illustrated, "They don't even have a population."
While Reed was growing up on a farm in nearby Bernice, the Knicks were
floundering. New York managed only one winning season in the 12 campaigns
between 1955-56 and 1966-67. From 1956 to 1966 the Knicks finished last nine
times, and the club failed to make the playoffs in the seven seasons from
1959 to 1966. In 1963-64 the Knicks brought up the rear of the Eastern
Division with a 22-58 record.
Reed在1942,6,25出生於路易斯安那的Hico鎮，而那個地方小到他只看過籃球的圖解說明
，"那個地方幾乎沒有籃球人口" Reed就在一個靠近Bernice的農地上長大。 而尼克隊
卻還在掙扎，他們在1955-56到1966-67的12個球季裡只有一球季是勝率超過５成。從1959
到1966年球隊連續七年沒辦法進入到季後賽。在1963-64球季甚至是東區墊的戰績22勝58
敗。
At Grambling, Reed amassed 2,280 career points, averaged 26.6 points and 21.3
rebounds during his senior year, and led the school to one NAIA title and
three Southwestern Athletic Conference Championships. Selected by the Knicks
in the second round of the 1964 NBA Draft, he signed with the franchise for
about $10,000.
大學時期在Grambling，Reed獲得了一共2280分，而在大二年他平均26.6分以及21.3個籃
板帶領學校獲得ＮAIA冠軍還有西南分區冠軍。在1964年被以第10順位被尼克選上並簽下
$10000的簽約金。
Reed made an immediate impact. In March 1965 he scored 46 points against Los
Angeles, the second-highest single-game total ever by a Knicks rookie. For
the season, he ranked seventh in the NBA in scoring (19.5 ppg) and fifth in
rebounding (14.7 rpg). He also began his string of All-Star appearances, and
he was the first Knicks player ever to be named NBA Rookie of the Year.
Reed馬上帶來了影響。在1965年三月，隊上洛杉磯湖人的比賽他獨得４６分，這是尼克隊
史上的新秀單場第二高分。在這個球季他是NBA得分榜第7名（19.5）還有籃板第五名（
14.7個）。他也開始展現他一連串全明星的身手，他是尼克隊隊史上第一個獲得新人王的
球員。
Reed proved to be a clutch playoff performer throughout his career. He gave
an early indication of this in 1966-67 when he bettered his regular-season
average of 20.9 points per game by scoring 27.5 points per contest in the
postseason.
Redd在他職業生涯的確是一個能掌握關鍵時刻的球員。在66-67球季就有機可循，例行賽
平均20.9分到了季後賽達到27.5分。
