Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green has been there and done that — 8
2-game NBA regular seasons followed by deep playoff runs that thrice resulted
in championship wins. Knowing the drill, Green knows just what to do to get hi
s body in peak conditioning for optimal performance.
As reported by Marcus Thompson II for The Athletic, Warriors general manager B
ob Myers confronted Green about his weight and conditioning after the All-Star
break. But Green already had a plan in place; he had learned from Michigan St
ate coach Tom Izzo that keen self-evaluation skills are necessary for greatnes
s.
在全明星周後，勇士GM Bob Myers見了Green討論了有關嘴綠的體重、體態。但Green針對
這件事早已有所準備，他從過去在密西根州大的教練Tom Izzo那學到：要邁向偉大，敏銳
的自我評估、自我檢視的能力是必須的。
To let Myers know he was serious about getting in shape for the playoffs, Gree
n even had a date to give his boss: March 6.
為了讓Bob明白他對為季後賽提升體態這件事情是認真的，Green給了他的老闆一個日期：
3/6。
“I knew I wasn’t in good shape,” Green told The Athletic this week. “But I
also know if anybody knows how to get in shape and get in shape quick, I know
how. I’ve been doing it all my life.”
嘴綠在這週告訴The Athletic的記者：「我知道我那時體態不是很好，但我也知道一
件事：如果要問有誰知道如何將體態提升，並且要在短時間內達成，我深諳此道，因為我
這輩子都在做這些事情。」
After dealing with a nagging toe injury for a good portion of the season, Gree
n first needed to rest and get healed up. A trip to Puerto Vallarta during All
-Star Weekend allowed him to do just that. Upon return, Green got into intense
workouts and cleaned up his plate.
大半球季的期間裡，嘴綠都在處理糾纏不休的腳趾傷勢，逐漸痊癒後，嘴綠需要的是休息
並
待它完全康復。 嘴綠利用全明星周的假期去了一趟巴雅爾塔港（墨西哥西岸），好以獲
得
讓身體放鬆的機會。度假完回歸賽季後，嘴綠立馬開始了高強度的訓練，並徹底落實計畫
。
According to Warriors center Andrew Bogut, who is sporting a leaner physique h
imself, the dietary changes were needed. “He used to eat like (expletive),”
the Australian big man said.
根據同樣也在為更精實體態努力的勇士中鋒Bogut的說法，關鍵在於改變吃的東西，「Gre
en過去常常亂吃一通」。
And the changes have worked. To start the playoffs, Green has looked lighter o
n his feet — an asset for a team seeking to push a speedy offensive pace, and
the natural result of dropping 23 pounds in six weeks.
而這樣的改變已經出現效果了。
季後賽開打後，嘴綠在場上的移動力看起來更加輕盈了（這是一支尋求快速推進進攻節奏
的球隊重視的資產，同時也是嘴綠在六周內減重23磅後的結果）
Here’s how Green did it:
看看Green怎麼做到的：
A nutritionist planned his diet.
營養師計畫他的飲食清單。
A chef prepared his meals in keeping with the nutritionist’s plan.
廚師遵照營養師指示為他料理。
The team’s strength and conditioning coaches helped him drop the weight witho
ut losing strength, in workouts The Athletic’s Thompson referred to as “taxi
ng.”
球隊的體能訓練助教們幫助他在減重同時又能維持住身體的力量。
It was on Green, though, to stay away from the following dietary culprits: alc
ohol, fried foods, unhealthy snacks. But once the postseason is over, Green ca
n indulge once again in some of his favorite foods, like his mother’s famous
“Saginaw Tacos.”
Green為了這些選擇不碰酒精、炸物、不健康的甜食。但只要季後賽結束，Green還是可以
重新放縱於他所喜愛的食物上，比如像是他媽媽有名的料理”Saginaw Tacos”
To Green, they’ll probably taste even better if eaten with championship confe
tti in his hair.
對Green來說，賽季結束後，以作為冠軍的身分重回這些食物的懷抱會更好。
心得：
嘴綠在3/8-4/7的比賽裡（賽季最後一場只上17分鐘為免失真不計的話）
投籃三圍：.474/.348/.625，
並繳出8.7分/7.2板/6.5助/1.4抄/1.3鍋
Game Score10.7 +/-值12.6（此兩項數據賽季平均為9.7 及7）
目前季後賽3場比賽
.484/.250/.857
13分/5.3板/8.7助/1.3抄/1.7鍋
好像有變好？
