‘He just wants attention’: Rajon Rondo responds to Ray Allen book excerpts
“He just wants attention,” Rondo said. “I need actually some sales from [th
e book], only [publicity] it’s been getting is from my name. I need some perc
entage or something. His people contact my people or something. The only pub I
’ve been hearing about is when he mentions my name.”
“他只是想要得到關注，”Rondo表示，“因為我的名字這本書被多次宣傳，所以我真的
需要從中拿一些抽成或者其他之類的。他的人該聯繫下我的人。這本書唯一的宣傳點，就
是提及我的時候。”
“Obviously, that man is hurting,” Rondo said of Allen. “I don’t know if it
’s financially, I don’t know if it’s mentally. He wants to stay relevant. I
am who I am. I don’t try to be something I’m not. I can’t say the same for
him. He’s looking for attention. I’m a better human being than that. I take
accountability for my actions.
“很顯然，那個人受傷了，我不知道是精神上還是經濟上的。他只是想保持關注度，我就
是我，我不會嘗試去將自己假扮成本來不該有的樣子。我不能對他說同樣的話，他就是在
博取關注。而我是一個比那更好的人。我對自己的行為負責。”
“He’s been retired for whatever years, and now he comes out with a book,” R
ondo said of Allen. “People do that in that situation they need money. He sho
uld have hit me up and asked me for a loan or something. It’s no hard feeling
s.”
“他已經退休好幾年了，現在他出了一本書。人們一般這樣做，都是因為他們需要錢。如
果他要錢，應該打給我，向我借一點，這並不難。”
“I just want to talk to him man-to-man,” Rondo said. “I don’t have a probl
em with the man. I haven’t said anything. The problem is maybe he feels some
type of way because the reunion trip thing came out. All I did was ask the res
t of the guys. I’m the point guard, so I’m going to organize the trip. I ask
ed the rest of my guys what y’all want to do, and they said no. What am I sup
posed to do?
“我只是想跟他面對面談談。我和那個人之間沒有問題，我還沒有說過什麼。或許他因為
上次聚會的事情對我有看法，而我所做的只是問了其他隊友的意見而已。我是控球後衛，
所以就由我來組織活動。我問過其他人的意見，他們都說不（不要Ray Allen參加），那
我應該怎麼做？”
“I’ll be the fall guy, but damn now you in the book talking about this and t
hat. And for me as a teammate, I probably supported [Allen] more than anybody
on the team, all [his stuff] that [he] had going on in Boston. I wasn’t mad t
hat [he] went to Miami.
“我可以成為代罪羔羊，但是太糟了，現在你在書中說三道四。對於我來說，作為一個隊
友，在塞爾提克時，我對Allen的支持可能要超過球隊任何人，對於他加盟熱火，我並沒
有感到生氣。”
