※ 引述《jerod (KG4MVP)》之銘言:

: At the end of a recent Timberwolves practice, Vin Baker looked at Eddie
: Griffin and nodded toward his younger teammate with whom he shares a special
: connection and a similar struggle with alcohol.
就在最近灰狼隊結束練習時,麵包師傅都會看著有特殊關係以及曾經同樣被酒精害慘
的隊友艾迪雞並且對他點頭(是時候可以出發了??)
:
Baker believes he can be a positive influence.
: 麵包師傅相信他自己可以給艾迪雞好的影響
He was a friend of Griffin's older brother, Marvin Powell, who played at the
: University of Hartford. Powell finished his college career in 1988, the year
: before Baker arrived at Hartford as a freshman. But they became friends
: through their connection to the school.
: 麵包師傅跟艾迪雞大哥,Marvin Powell,史丹福大學時代的朋友!
Marvin Powell在1988年結束他的大學生涯,而那年也正好是麵包師傅進入史丹福
的第一年,雖然差了3年,但是他們在學校仍然是朋友
Powell was the proud older brother of Eddie, one of the best high school
: basketball players in the country before he went on to star at Seton Hall.
: Powell died of a heart attack in 2001 just a few months before Griffin was
: drafted seventh overall by the New Jersey Nets.
: Powell是個讓艾迪雞覺得驕傲的大哥,在艾迪雞進入Seton Hall之前,他是家鄉裡最好
的球員之一!!然而Powell在2001年死於心臟病,正是艾迪雞以第7順位被籃網挑走的
前幾個月而已..........
"Whenever I would see Eddie, I would always talk to him about his brother,"
: Baker said. "We've been able to kind of form a special bond between each
: other because of his brother."
: 麵包師傅說"每次我都會跟他聊一些有關於他大哥的事"
"因為他大哥,讓我跟艾迪雞之間有一種特殊的感覺,難道這就是一見鍾情嗎?"
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
<這是不負責任講座>
Baker and Griffin have battled alcohol issues, and each went through
: rehabilitation. Now Baker believes he can help Griffin, 24, stay out of
: trouble.
: "That's more important than anything," Baker said. "If I can help this
: kid in the next five years by the one year or two years that I'm here with
: him, that would mean the world to me. It would mean more to me than any
: all-star team or Olympic team I've been on."
: 麵包師傅跟艾迪雞都有酗酒的問題,而他們也都進過勒戒所.現在麵包師傅相信他可以
幫助艾迪雞遠離麻煩
"如果我可以藉由在灰狼隊打球的這一.兩年,而改變了他未來的五年,那我想我是成功的
這可是比我打全明星賽或是奧運都還來的有意義(大叔那已經是6年前的事囉.....)
"對我而言,這可是比任何事都還要重要的"麵包師傅是這樣說的
The Boston Celtics released Baker in 2004 because he failed to comply with
: the conditions of his aftercare treatment. He has made mistakes, so he
: doesn't pretend to have any grand plan to help Griffin. Just living his
: life the right way will stand out more than anything else, along with the
: occasional word of advice.
: Wolves coach Dwane Casey said he believes Baker will be a good influence
: for Griffin, who in 2003 underwent therapy for depression and treatment
: for substance abuse. He was waived by the Houston Rockets, and then picked
: up by New Jersey, but he didn't play for the Nets, either. He missed the
: 2003-04 season as he dealt with his problems.
: 麵包師傅在2004年因為違反了他的戒酒療程,所以遭Boston Celtics釋出
他也做錯事情過,所以他並不打算有多偉大的計畫來幫助艾迪雞,而只是堅持讓
艾迪雞活在正確的道路上,然後偶爾給艾迪雞一些言語上的建議~
Dwane Casey也相信麵包師傅可以給艾迪雞帶來好的影響!!
艾迪雞在2003年因為也因為他的惡癮被火箭隊給釋出,接著雖然被籃網隊給簽走,但是
他也沒為籃網隊打任何一場球,因為在03~04年球季,他忙著處理他私人的問題!!
Baker, a 6-foot-11 forward, joined the Wolves about a month ago, but already
: his relationship with Griffin has grown stronger than it was when they first
: met a few years ago.
: "He knew I was going through the same things he was going through," Griffin
: said. "And since he got here with us, we've just gotten closer. He's been
: like a mentor for me and somebody I can talk to."
: Griffin isn't the type to spend a lot of time with his teammates. He is
: reserved, so he doesn't hang out regularly with Baker. Their bond is a
: different one.
: 身高6-11的麵包師傅約是一個月前才加盟灰狼隊的,而他跟艾迪雞的關係也日益的茁壯
"他知道我現在是在走他之前走過的路""自從他來了之後,我跟他是也越來越熟了"
"他就像是可以跟我聊天的良師益友一般"
艾迪雞並不是那種會花很多時間跟隊友混在一起的人,他是很沉默寡言的,他也不定時的
到麵包師傅家打擾<這句我翻的怪怪的>他們的關係是很不一樣的 렊
"He just lets me know he's there for me," Griffin said.
: Griffin, a 6-foot-10 forward, is beginning his third season with the Wolves.
: He has played well during the preseason and hopes to continue that during
: Minnesota's season, which starts Wednesday. Having Baker around should help.
: Griffin said of Baker: "He's always talking about God and staying focused
: and staying on the right path. He seems like he's definitely turned himself
: around."
"他讓我知道他在這裡是為了我"艾迪雞這樣說
艾迪雞,6-11,這是他在灰狼對的第3個球季了!他在季前熱身賽打的很好而且也期望能把
這樣的好表現延續到即將在禮拜三開始的正規賽中<最好是加上季後賽贏的16場>
艾迪雞是這樣的敘述麵包師傅的
"他經常談論上帝而且集中精神走在正確的道路上,就好像完全的變了一個人一樣"
