NBA
    NBA時期

My transition from playing college basketball to playing professionally was
very tough. We lost a lot of games and I wasn’t used to that. The speed of the
game and size of the players took a few months to get used to. I was, however,
able to get a lot of playing time, which helped me gain some valuable
experience. I was honored to be named to the All-Rookie 2nd Team.
    從大學籃球到職業層級的轉換對我來說相當困難。我們輸了很多場比賽而我對此情形
並不習慣。我花了好幾個月才適應了比賽的速度和球員的體型。不過，我仍獲得許多上場
時間，那幫助我得到許多寶貴的經驗。我很榮幸在球季後被選為全新秀第二隊的成員。

Moving to DC was great because it’s like a smaller version of Atlanta. My most
memorable game in the NBA was my 1st game, which was against the Chicago Bulls.
I’m a big Scottie Pippen fan and was able to play against him in my first game
! I had a weekly radio show during the 2004-05 season with WTOP in which I
helped review local DC restaurants. It was lots of fun! We went to different
places and gave our suggestions.
    搬到華盛頓哥倫比亞特區非常的棒，因為這裡就像是亞特蘭大的小型縮影。我最難忘
的比賽是我在NBA的第一場比賽，那時候我們的對手是芝加哥公牛隊。我是Scottie Pippen
的頭號粉絲，而我竟然能在生涯第一場比賽就和他交手。'04-'05球季我在WTOP電台有一個
一週一次的節目，節目內容是介紹DC當地的餐館。那真的很有趣！我們到不同的地方(用餐
、參訪...what ever)並提出我們的意見。

One of the toughest things I’ve had to deal with in my career so far has been
injuries. The second time I was injured was more difficult because I worked so
hard to get back from the first injury. To have it happen again was very tough.
I never felt like giving up but it was hard.
    到目前為止，我生涯中遇過感到最棘手的事就是傷勢。我第二次受傷後復健過程更為
艱難，因為我非常努力才從第一次的傷勢中回復過來。再一次受傷實在讓人很難受。我從
未有過如此強烈想要放棄的念頭，但術後復健真的相當艱辛。

I work out every day at practice and lift weights probably 10-15 times per
month. My biggest NBA mentor has been Jerry Stackhouse. Stack talked to me and
gave me some very encouraging words during my rookie year. I also got a lot of
advice from Antonio Daniels. The best basketball compliment that I’ve ever
received has been that I’m unselfish and the consummate teammate. I feel like
my best basketball quality is my shooting. I think I’m a pretty good shooter.
    我每天認真練習而且每個月進行10到15次的重量訓練。我在NBA遇到最大的貴人兼精神
導師是Jerry Stackhouse。在我新秀年Stack常跟我聊天並且跟我說了許多非常鼓勵性的話
。我也從Antonio Daniels身上得到很多建議。關於籃球方面，我受到最好的稱讚是"我是
個不自私的完美隊友"。我感覺我最出色的籃球強項是我的投射。我認為我是個相當棒的射
手。

I like everything about the NBA. I’m doing something I love to do. If you do
something that you love doing, you’ll never work a day in your life. I don’t
want to put an age on my retirement time. If I can play until I’m 50, I will!
If I ever lose the desire to play, it’s time to move on.
    我喜歡關於NBA的一切。我正在做我想做的事。如果你在做某些你熱愛的事，你永遠都
不會認為你在工作。我不希望預設我的退休年齡。如果我可以一直打到50歲，我願意！如
果有一天我失去繼續打球的慾望了，那就是我高掛球鞋的時刻。

When I do decide to retire from basketball, I see myself continuing to help
kids. I love helping kids and I wouldn’t mind doing a little television.
    當我決定從籃球場上退下，我可以預見自己會持續去幫助孩子們。我熱愛幫助孩子而
我也不介意從事電視相關工作。

COMMUNITY
    社區公益部份

I hosted a coat drive with the Wizards in which we collected over 175 coats for
needy families. I went to the Children’s Inn at the National Institute of
Health and visited kids and families. I also sponsored a family (three years in
a row) for the Wizards Family-to-Family Christmas program in order to assure
that some needy families had everything they needed. I also helped donate a
basketball court at a local middle school and assisted with feeding the
homeless on multiple occasions in DC. I’m also a big advocate of cancer
awareness.
    我和巫師隊共同推動了一個外套捐贈的活動，我們為有需要的家庭募得超過175件的外
套。我到國家衛生組織的嬰幼院去探望孩子和一些家庭。巫師發起的家對家聖誕資助計畫
是為了讓某些有需要的家庭可以獲得他們需要的所有東西，而我也贊助了其中一個家庭(連
續三年)。我同時也在當地的一所中學協助捐贈建造了一座籃球場並且在DC特區的各種不同
場合中幫助那些無家可歸的可憐人。我同時也是癌症認知活動的大力提倡者。
