Jeremy-Refocused: Lin comes back hot for the Los Angeles Lakers
林書豪重新聚焦:強勢回歸! http://tinyurl.com/oy6u65e (文長, 簡單翻譯)
After an All-Star break where he took a step back from the grind of NBA
basketball and avoided being traded, Jeremy Lin came to back to the Los
Angeles Lakers rejuvenated and firing on all cylinders.
明星賽休息過後,林書豪強勢回歸展翅飛翔!
“Frustrating” has been a word that has come up a lot when talking about
Jeremy Lin’s time with the Los Angeles Lakers. Whether it is his lack of
aggression or his seemingly irreparable relationship with head coach Byron
Scott, Lin has felt exasperation of being a man caught in a no-win situation
and caused dissatisfaction among fans that were expecting much more than what
he has brought so far.
"打的掙扎",在林書豪披上紫金戰袍後這個詞很常被拿來形容他的表現,不管是因為林
書豪缺乏積極,還是他跟敗總那看似斷線風箏的關係,林書豪已經受夠了處在一支一勝
難求的隊伍中,也不滿意屢屢見到林迷們眼中那不滿失望的眼神了
Lin, to his credit has done his best to fight through his shooting year since
his rookie season at Golden State. Up until the All-Star break, he was
averaging 10.6 points on 43.6 percent shooting from the field. He never
blatantly threw anyone under the bus or blamed anyone else for his struggles
even though he would have been justified in doing so. He just kept working.
明星賽前,是一回事,林也從未因為自己不夠出色的表現而怪罪他人或是埋怨,即便大
家都認為他如果也說些埋怨的話也是理所當然的,林書豪只是埋頭繼續努力
However, sometimes working hard can be so exhausting it begins to be a
detriment. It’s like continually smashing your head into a brick wall hoping
to break through to the other side – you might be making progress slowly,
but what will that matter when you are bloodied and broken with little to
show for it? Sometimes it’s better to just take a step back and see that
there are other venues towards success.
然而,有時候埋頭苦幹只會得到一身的疲累,就像是拿頭直接去撞磚牆想把牆撞穿一樣
,但狀況都這樣了又有何妨呢?有時需要的只是先退後一步,看清楚現況後再往前衝
After stepping away from the Lakers facility and the daily demands of the
coaching staff, Lin came back after the All-Star break a new man; and playing
like it, too.
書豪真讚 FGA FG% FTA ASTs PTs
明星賽前 8.2 42.6% 3 4.6 10.2
明星賽後 12.0 66.7% 7 4.0 21.5
It is like night and day watching Lin play these past couple of games. He has
been more aggressive looking for his shot, ignoring Byron Scotts request that
he look to pass more, which is what he needed to do in the first place. He is
shooting 3.8 more shots per game and still upped his efficiency, shooting
66.7 percent from the field the last two games.
林書豪對自己的出手更積極了,不去管敗總要他多傳的指示,現在的林書豪,比明星賽
前場均多出手了3.8次卻仍能維持高效!
The biggest difference, however, has been his aggression towards the basket;
a strength that he has not consistently used the entire season. Instead of
settling for outside jumpers, he is running like a freight train to the rim,
averaging seven free throw attempts, instead of the three he was attempting
prior to the All-Star break.
最大的差別就在於林書豪對於衝擊籃框更加積極了,展現出本季先前不夠穩定的力量!
不再像先前那樣較多常識外圍跳投,林書豪在場上奔馳的像部火車般的往籃下衝,讓他
獲得場均7次的罰球機會,在明星賽前這數據只有3吶
He was also caught jawing with the Brooklyn Nets’ Bojan Bogdanovic in the
closing seconds of their game last week. The edge has returned for Lin in
all aspects of the game it seems.
一樣對籃網,上周被笑,這週就換林書豪笑
Apparently, all he needed to do was just take a couple days to be with the
ball alone.
顯然林書豪需要的就只是單純跟球作伴幾天
“I got a chance to get away and it’s weird when things aren’t going that
well, the one thing I like to do is get in the gym without anyone telling me
what to do or how to play,” Lin explained. “I just like to go and hoop and
so that’s what I did during the All-Star weekend. When you’re in it
everyday, sometimes it becomes a grind. It was definitely good mentally, good
physically.”
林書豪說:明星賽休息期間,我一個人跟球在體育館想了很多,讚
Realizing that this is a contract year probably helped with the process as
well. With Lin’s next contract so crucial to his future in the NBA, it is a
surprise that it took this long to see Lin in attack mode looking to get
numbers in a lost season.
聽到林迷們喊著"這是合約年要加油啊"的聲音或許也對林書豪表現提升有幫助,但明明
處在要爭取下份合約的這季,林書豪這麼晚覺醒實在是令人感到訝異啊
Being selfless for the majority season has given Lin a bit of an identity
crisis. He was so wrapped up in being a good teammate and deferring to other
teammates that his own aggressive style of basketball fell by the wayside,
resulting in unproductive games.
太無私真的傷害頗大
But, being strictly a distributor was never Jeremy Lin’s game. He needs to
be a scoring threat in order open up his passing lanes, not the other way
around. Seeing Lin go back to his aggressive roots is refreshing, and what
Laker fans were hoping for when he brought in at the beginning of the season.
但,林書豪又不是傳球為主的魯比歐,林書豪需要在對手眼中先成為一個得分威脅,之
後他的傳球空間才會打得開來,看到林這兩場打得如此積極,林迷們紛紛感到欣慰,這
也是林書豪初到洛城時湖人球迷引領期待的狀況
It is far from being Linsanity again, but it is definitely a step in the
right direction. Taking a break from being a professional player and just
being a basketball player has greatly benefited Lin’s mentality and maybe
fans will see what the real Jeremy Lin can do when he stops smashing his head
trying to be something he is not, and playing his style of basketball
regardless of what anyone else says.
雖然林書豪近來的表現離當年的林來瘋尚遠,但林已經踏上了正確的方向
這樣打才對,大家愛你,羊年行大運嘿~要到適合的好球隊拿到好合約嘿~
