恩師：LBJ曾說做不到左手上籃，為他驕傲
在LBJ 8歲的時候，他的啟蒙教練Frank Walker堅持要求他學會用左手上籃。那時候，
LBJ為此而不高興。
"He used to cry about it," said Frank Walker, James’ coach when he was
growing up in Akron, Ohio . "He used to say, 'I can’t do it.' But I told him
that you can’t play this game without using both hands. I told him, 'You’re
going to need a left-handed layup one of these days.'"
“他過去曾經為此哭訴過，”沃克說道，“他總說，'我做不到。'但是我告訴他，如果你
不能熟練使用雙手的話，你是無法打好籃球的。我告訴他， '總有一天你會用到左手上籃
。'”
果真，在東部決賽的第一場，LBJ用了一記左手上籃絕殺了對手。賽後，詹姆斯也感謝了
恩師20年前的教誨。
"I give credit to my Little League coach, Frank Walker Sr.," James said after
that game about Walker's lessons 20 years ago.
"Frank Walker, my Little League basketball coach, taught me how to make a
left-handed layup," James said. "He wouldn’t let me dribble the ball until I
got the right steps down and the right (form) to make a left-handed layup
consistently. And so we used to do it before practice every day and during
practice, and he always told me, 'You know, you’ll be a much better player
if you learn how to make shots with both hands.'"
在今天球隊的訓練課上，詹姆斯也再次提到了他的啟蒙教練，“我的小聯盟籃球教練
Frank Walker曾教我如何用左手上籃，我必須得連續命中左手上籃，否則他不讓我運球
。我們曾經在每天的訓練前都做這樣的練習，他總是告訴我，如果我能左右開攻的話，
我會成為一名更好的球員。”
"Well, I told him he would need it," Walker said. "But I’m very proud at
what he’s done."
在詹姆斯的成長中充當了這樣一個角色，沃克自然受到了很多關注。當被問到這個問題
時，Walker笑著說道：“好吧，我告訴他總會需要用左手上籃的。我為他的成就感到驕
傲。”那麼，沃克在教詹姆斯左手上籃時還有什麼秘訣？
"We used to have one drill where you had to put your right hand in your
pocket and dribble with your left hand and another where you had to put your
right hand behind your back and dribble," Walker said. "Then we had a
chase-down drill. You would have to go in for a left-handed layup and another
player was chasing you so you wouldn’t learn to be bothered by that."
“我們讓他把右手放在口袋裡，然後用左手運球。還有就是讓他把右手放到背後，用左手
運球。還有就是追身訓練，你必須要用左手上籃，另外一個球員在後面乾擾你，這樣的話
就可以訓練你在有防守的情況下，左手上籃的防干擾能力。”
這一招很有效，沃克說詹姆斯現在另一隻手的技術非常出色，“你會以為他慣用左手呢。
”
Through the years, James has continued to thank Walker for teaching him how
to use that hand so effectively. When James played for Cleveland from
2003-10, Walker regularly made the 45-minute drive from Akron for Cavaliers
home games.
這些年來，詹姆斯時時刻刻不忘感謝自己的啟蒙教練。2003-10賽季，詹姆斯在騎士效力
期間，每當騎士主場有比賽，沃克都會開45分鐘的車從阿克倫趕到騎士主場看球。
"If he made a move and he used his left hand, I’d be sitting courtside and he
’d just kind of give me a look," Walker said.
“如果他完成一個動作，是用左手完成的，當我坐在場邊的時候，他總會給我一個眼神，
”Walker說道。
如今，詹姆斯在邁阿密效力，沃克無法來到現場了，但詹姆斯依舊可以用他的行動來感謝
他的恩師。
