There is common practice that rookies have to do certain tasks throughout
their first campaign in the NBA. Star Russell Westbrook, who was a part of
the Washington roster that year, took advantage of it.
新秀在NBA的第一年要去完成某些任務是很常見的做法,西河在巫師的那年很好的利用了這
一點。
"What my teammates asked me to do was usually bring snacks to the plane or
carry their bags - really simple things. It never happened to me that they
filled my car or something.
通常我的隊友會要我幫他們帶點零食上飛機還是背行李什麼的,都是些小事。
沒有車被塞滿滿還是其他啥的。 (爆米花塞車)
I remember that once at 22:00, before our first flight to the pre-season
game, I got a call from an unidentified number. I answered and said, 'Hello'.
The person responded, 'You know who is talking to you?'.
我記得有一次晚上10點吧,在我們要去坐季前賽的班機之前,我接到一通未知號碼,我接
起來說哈囉,那個人回答,你知道誰在跟你講話嗎?
I told him, 'No', then he said to me, 'Russell Westbrook'. I greeted him,

answered because if you did not answer a second time, we would have problems'.
我跟他說不知,然後他就說我是西河,我就跟他打招呼啦,安抓龜哥?他直截了當,好險
你有回答,要是你沒一秒內跟我打招呼,那我們可能問題就大囉。
That's how I knew it was a good start. Then he told me, 'I'll send you a list
of snacks now and I want you to bring them to me tomorrow on the plane'.
我知道我們之間有個好的開始,然後他就告訴我,我現在給你一份零食清單,然後明天上
飛機帶給我。
Those were the things that could not be bought at any ordinary grocery store.
I had to go to certain places at great distances to buy them. It was not
easy. In the end, I got everything and I was fine. Though, that's the
strangest case I can remember," Avdija concluded.
那是一些在普通雜貨店根本買不到的東西,我得要去很遠的地方去買,超難的。最後我還
是全部買好而且我很棒,這大概就是我記得最奇怪的事情了
