LANGLOIS: Is there anything over the next, say, 20 games – besides constant
effort – that you are specifically looking for?
Langlois：接下來譬如說20比賽好了，除了持續不斷的努力外，還有什麼是你特別期
待看到的嗎？
DUMARS: No, because there is nothing else over an 82-game season. Constant
effort is what you have to have night in and night out. “Guys, it’s not good
enough to do it for two weeks. You’ve got to do it for the next two months.
You’ve got to be consistent.” That’s why I have such respect – and I’m
going to deviate a little bit – it’s why I have such respect for what Jerry
Sloan has done at Utah for so many years. He gets a constant effort out of his
guys year after year after year. That’s what we’re trying to get to. It’s
nothing magical. There’s no secret. If you’re talented enough, then it
becomes, can you play hard constantly over several months. Because if you do,
you’re going to win a lot of games and be in position to have a great playoff
run.
Dumars：沒有，因為就一個涵蓋82場球賽的漫長球季而言，沒有什麼更為重要的了。
持續不斷的努力是日復一日你必須保有的敬業精神。"朋友們，只維持兩個禮拜是不夠的，
在接下來兩個月你都必須持續不斷的努力並且持之以恆。"那就是為什麼我如此尊敬 - 抱
歉，我有點離題了 - 那就是我如此尊敬J.Sloan以及這些年來他在猶他所付出的原因。他
對於所屬球員的努力和付出年復一年，從未間斷，而那正是我們正嘗試效法的。那沒什麼
特別的，也沒什麼秘密。如果你具有足夠的天賦，那決勝點就在於你是否能連續好幾個月
認真練習和比賽。因為如果你能做到這樣，你一定能贏得許多比賽，而且在季後賽順利過
關斬將，連戰皆捷。
LANGLOIS: Since you came into the league, money has changed the dynamics of the
league dramatically. Was it easier for a coach to get a consistent, sustained
effort out of players in those days or has nothing much changed in that regard?
Langlois：自從你進入聯盟以來，金錢很顯然地已經對於這整個聯盟的生態造成了爆
炸性的影響。那時候教練是不是比較容易得到一些固定的老班底或其實在那方面現在和過
去並沒有太大區別？
DUMARS: The money has had an impact, no question. It’s human nature that money
would have an impact. So you have to start trying to motivate people beyond
just the money. That’s about, “OK, you have the money. Here’s the contract.
That’s taken care of. Now, here’s what I need.” It’s give and take. You
want to take care of guys and make sure all these guys get their contracts
taken care of, but then after that you have to turn and face the guys and, “OK
, here’s what I need. I’ve taken care of you, here’s what I need now. And
what I need is a constant, concerted effort. I need you to play at a high level
, a championship level, and keep us in contention here for years.”
Dumars：無庸置疑地，有錢能使鬼推磨，哪個正常人不愛錢呢？所以你必須嘗試與陣
中球員建立除了主僱關係以外的情感。那就像是，"好，你有錢了，這是你的合約。錢的部
份我對你已經很夠意思了。接下來換你聽聽我的需求。"那是一供一取的平等互換原則，你
希望照顧好球員而且要確保他們對於所拿到的合約都很滿意，但接下來你也必須換個角度
並面對球員說，"好，這些是我的要求。我已經很照顧你了，這些是我的要求。而我所需要
的是你們能夠持續不斷，同心協力為比賽付出，盡心盡力。我需要你們拿出高水準的表現
，冠軍隊該有的表現，並且讓我們接下來好幾年都保有挑戰總冠軍的堅強實力。"
LANGLOIS: Every coach I’ve ever talked to about that has said that he can only
do so much to demand effort but that it’s so much easier when his best players
, his leaders, buy in and demand the same from their teammates. Are your best
players also your leaders in that regard?
Langlois：每一個我所訪問過的教練都說他最大的能耐就是要求球員全心全意地付出
，但如果他麾下最出色的球員或領導者也買他的帳，而且對他的隊友們也有一樣的要求，
那他在帶領球隊將會輕鬆許多。就這方面而言，你們隊上最出色的球員同時也是球隊的領
導者嗎？
DUMARS: The three captains – Chauncey, Rip and Tayshaun – for sure are three
guys who are about the right things. They represent the right things. All three
of them are unselfish. All three of them are good people. All three of them are
the type of guys you want standing up as your captains. And when you have that,
it’s so much easier to get your team headed in the right direction. Because if
your leadership is about the right things, it’s hard for other guys not to be.
And if they are, they’re going to stand out like a sore thumb and have a short
life here, to be frank with you.
Dumars：球隊的三位隊長 - 槍蜥、RIP和小王子 - 很肯定地就是三個類似你所說的那
種球員，他們的表現足以作為大家的典範，他們三個都很無私，都是好人，都是那種你希
望提擢為隊長的那種傢伙。而當你同時擁有不只一位這樣的好球員，要把球隊帶往正確的
方向上變得簡單許多。因為你的領導者就走在正確的路上，其他人想要不跟進都很困難。
老實說，如果有人膽敢不遵從這樣的隊風，那他就會像是大家的眼中釘，待在球隊的時間
不會太久。
LANGLOIS: Are Nazr Mohammed and Flip Murray still works in progress as far as
fitting in and contributing at the level you expected of them when you
identified them as the free agents you coveted?
Langlois：當你認定回教人和F.Murray是你垂涎的自由球員時，你一定是期待他們能
對球隊有一定程度的貢獻，而他們現在已經達到你預期的目標了嗎？或者仍只是在努力適
應並融入這支球隊？
DUMARS: Absolutely. We’ve not gotten the best of them. It would be naive to
think you’re going to get the best of them after four weeks. I look at it no
differently when we brought those guys in as when we brought Chauncey in, or
Rip in, or Tayshaun in. If people can get past short-term memory, we didn’t
have the best of Chauncey after four weeks. It took some time for him to grow
into who he became. And we didn’t get the best of Rip after four weeks or
Tayshaun. It would be unfair and naive to think you’re going to get the best
of Nazr Mohammed and Flip Murray after four weeks. Same thing with Delfino.
This is his third year here and he’s really starting to come on now. That’s
kind of what happens. This is kind of a right-now world and if it doesn’t
happen in two weeks, then, Oh, my God – it’s a failure. But that’s more the
hype than the reality of it.
Dumars：我很肯定，他們還沒調整到最佳狀況。認為他們在開季僅僅四個禮拜之後就
能調整到最佳狀況的想法未免也太過天真了些，我看待這件事情的態度和當初槍蜥、RIP或
小王子加入球隊之初並沒有什麼不同。如果你還記得過去不久的事，那你應該知道我們並
未在槍蜥加入四個禮拜後就獲得一個調整到最佳狀況的他，他花了不少時間才變成現在這
個我們所熟知"Mr. Big Shot"，而RIP或小王子也不是在加入四個禮拜後就調整到最佳狀況
。所以期盼回教人和Murray在加入球隊僅僅四週之後就調整到最佳狀況是不公平的，而且
是個過於天真的想法。對於C.Delfino也一樣，這是他在活塞的第三年，而他才剛真正進入
狀況。事情就是這樣，這是一個凡事都得馬上收到成效的速食世界，所以如果事情在兩週
內無法看到成果，那就會有人大驚小怪地說，噢，我的天啊，這真是個失敗。但事實上，
事情根本不可能進展得這麼快。
LANGLOIS: So you still feel as strongly about those two as when you signed them
?
Langlois：所以和簽下他們時相比，你對他們仍深信不疑？
DUMARS: Oh, absolutely. Again, Chauncey struggled his first year here,
especially the first few months, trying to get used to Rick (Carlisle) and what
was going on.
Dumars：噢，那是當然的啦。我必須再次強調，槍蜥好不容易才熬過他在活塞的第一
年，尤其是剛開始幾個月，因為他必須試著去習慣R.Carlisle的作法並了解球隊到底是怎
麼運作。
LANGLOIS: His assist numbers, and his assists-to-turnovers ratio, have improved
dramatically over the seasons here.
Langlois：他的助攻數和助攻失誤比在最近這幾個球季有了非常顯著的成長。
DUMARS: He has become a very efficient point guard. I keep up with the
assists-to-turnover ratio. It’s like 8:1 – it’s crazy. But it took some time
to get there. I remember the first four months he was here when people wondered
. It takes some time.
Dumars：他已經變成了一個非常有效率的控衛，尤其是助攻失誤比的部份。他這項數
據一度來到8比1左右 - 那太不可思議了。但他也不是一夕間就突然開竅，變得如此厲害，
他一樣是苦練再苦練，花了好一段時間才有這樣的身手。我依稀記得他剛加入球隊的前四
個月，很多人還質疑球隊為什麼要弄來這個籃子不穩又不會助攻的兩光控衛。所以別急，
再觀察一段時間看看吧。
LANGLOIS: I know you take everything that happens in preseason with a grain of
salt, but Jason Maxiell had an awfully good preseason. Is he just a victim of
circumstances right now.
Langlois：我知道你不全然季前所發生每件事，但J.Maxiell確實在季前賽表現相當出
色，他是否是活塞目前亟欲衝刺戰績而過度倚賴先發球員情況下的犧牲者呢？
DUMARS: That’s all it is. Maxiell is a victim of circumstances – and the
circumstances are Rasheed Wallace, Nazr Mohammed, Dale Davis and Antonio
McDyess. Those are the circumstances. But I tell you what – I feel very good
about having him as the guy, right now, that if we have any slips, if anybody,
God forbid, has to go down for a week or two, having that guy ready to step in.
Because he showed he was ready for minutes, that if given the opportunity
he’ll produce for you. To have a young guy like that waiting in the wings is a
pretty good situation to be in.
Dumars：你說對了，Maxiell確實是受限於所處的環境 - 因為他前面還擋著溪蛙、回
教人、Davis大叔和袋鼠，他們的經驗都遠勝於他，但我告訴你 - 我為球隊擁有他這樣積
極而上進的年輕人感到很慶幸，因為如果有任何意外，如果有任何一個人，但願不要，必
須停賽休息一個，甚至兩個禮拜，球隊還有一個人可以馬上補上來。因為他展現了他已經
有能力分配到一些上場時間，如果你給他機會，他一定能有所貢獻。擁有這樣一個隨時能
準備上場而且有所發揮的年輕球員在板凳區待命，對球隊來說是再好不過的一件事了。
