补几篇外电，尽量逐句翻译，看完之後的心得，是我现在好想拿起篮球， 找以前自己的队友，跟他们说「让我们成为像公牛一样的球队吧！」： 1.【Rose focused on team, not injury】 ( http://ppt.cc/VxJ3 ) (By K.C. Johnson,Tribune reporter) The Bulls received a surprise visitor Monday: Derrick Rose. 「公牛周一迎接了一个意外的访客，Rose。」 Less than 48 hours after ending his season by tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee, the league's reigning most valuable player came to the Berto Center to begin treatment and healing of another kind. Several who spoke to him said Rose focused more on how his teammates are doing than his own injury. 「上季MVP Rose，在他因为前十字韧带撕裂结束本球季不到四十八小时後， 来到了Beeto Center，开始了另外一种方式的治疗跟痊癒。几个跟他说到话的人， 表示比起自己的伤势，Rose更在意他的队友们」 "We want him be around," coach Tom Thibodeau said. "As much time as he needs is fine. I don't think he'll be able to travel with us. But he'll be around. And he wants to be around. He's anxious to get around his teammates. That's the way Derrick is. He doesn't look back. He looks ahead. That's a great way to be." 「『我们想要他与我们同在，他需要多久都好。我不认为他可以跟我们一起到客场， 但他会跟我们同在，而他也想要这样。他非常挂念着要跟队友同在，这就是他。 他从不看过去那些已经发生的，而是向前看。这样很好』，Thib如是说。」 Thibodeau said he doesn't know if Rose will attend Tuesday's Game 2. A specific medical plan for when Rose undergoes surgery is still being formulated. "He's got to wait because they're strengthening the quad and all that," Thibodeau said. "It will probably be clearer by the end of the week." (上面是在讲医疗的状况) Thibodeau said Rose, as usual, is already flashing a competitive side. "He's obviously disappointed with the injury," Thibodeau said. "He's totally into the team, and he's already thinking of all the things he's going to do to get back. The guy's a fierce, fierce competitor, and that's the way he'll approach his rehab. I'm extremely confident he'll come back better than ever." 「Thib一如往常，以非常光明奋发的角度谈论着Rose：『很显然地他对於这次受伤， 感到相当的失望，而他已经去考虑到所有他必须要去做、能让他回来的事情， 这孩子是个斗士，勇猛的斗士，这也是他会进行复建的态度。 我对於他会以更好的姿态回来这件事情非常有信心。」 Beyond 76ers coach Doug Collins' public support, Thibodeau said several coaches around the league have contacted him to deliver positive messages to Rose. "People have a lot of respect for Derrick, not only for his greatness as a player but how he carries himself, how he represents the league and game," Thibodeau said. 「除了76人总教练Collins的公开支持外，Thibs也提到还有好几位联盟中的教练， 给予了Rose鼓励跟支持。『人们对於他的尊敬，不只是因为他是一个杰出的球员， 更是因为他如何砥砺自己成长、能如何代表着这个联盟跟这个运动』，Thib说。」 Teammates were happy to see Rose. "He's handling it well," Kyle Korver said. "It's a tough thing. But he seemed like he was in pretty good spirits." 「队员们都很开心看到Rose。『他很好的去面对这整件事情。这很困难， 但他看起来十分的有精神』，KK说。」 (下面很多都重复，省略掉) 2.【Actually, the Bulls can win】( http://ppt.cc/Gfg9 ) (By Melissa Isaacson | ESPNChicago.com) Funny, but when Kyle Korver said it Monday, it didn't feel sappy. Funnier than that, it didn't sound impossible either. 「有趣的是，当KK周一这样说(标题那句)时，感觉起来并不愚笨；更有趣的是， 听起来也不像不可能。」 "I don't know one good sports movie where the 1-seed cruised to the championship," he said humorously but oh so seriously. 「『我不知道任何好看的运动电影，内容是第一种子一路夺得冠军』， KK幽默但是又非常认真的说着。」 While still sad about the news of Derrick Rose's season-ending knee injury and realistic about the impact of losing last season's league MVP, Korver, his teammates and coach Tom Thibodeau actually seem eager for the challenge. 「牛群们，准备好面临这个挑战了。」 But maybe no more than Korver, who was so introspective following Rose's devastating injury in Game 1 of the Chicago Bulls' first-round playoff series with the Philadelphia 76ers, he took to Facebook on the advice of his brother Clayton, and typed these words: 「但也许不会有人对於这次事件，比KK想得更多、更深层。」 Why. Why. Why Derrick, again? Derrick is more than an MVP to our team. He's our friend, our brother he inspires us to be the very best we can be, just by who he is and how hard he plays. That he has spent so much time this year hurt, was frustrating. Now that he is out for the rest of the season, well it's just plain sad. No one is to blame; what happened, did. We send him our prayers, our love, our good wishes that he heals and comes back stronger, better, healthier than ever before. (上面这段有其他文章有提到了) "Bulls fans. Now is not the time to ask why or to get bitter. Now is the time to refocus and ask 'How are we going to win this Championship?' We have the best Team in the league. This season has proven, we are a TEAM and it has taken us ALL to have the best record. Let's focus on what's ahead. This is an incredible opportunity for All of Us to step up and make it happen. We're all gonna have to work harder and smarter. We are all gonna have to believe in ourselves. That we are more than the sum of our parts. We need YOU to believe with Us. We need You to believe for Us. We are going to keep going strong. One quarter, one game, one round at a time. Until it's over. That's how we're gonna do it." 「牛迷们，现在不是问为什麽或感到难过的时间，现在是我们重新聚焦， 还有找到『我们要如何赢得总冠军』这个答案的时候，我们有联盟中最好的球队， 这个球季我们证明了我们是用所有人的力量，造就了最好的表现。对我们来说， 这是一个完全无法想像的机会，让我们有这个机会站出来、并且完成。 我们都必须更努力、更聪明的朝这个目标运作。我们必须相信我们自己。 而这个我们不只是我们场上的牛群，我们需要你们这些场边、场外的牛群， 跟着我们一起去相信。我们需要你们相信我们。我们会一节一节地、一场一场地、 一轮一轮地坚强向前走，直到结束。这就是我们将要做的事情」 Certainly not the words of hopelessness or even pessimism. Korver said he is inspired by Donald Miller's book "A Million Miles in a Thousand Years: What I Learned While Editing My Life." "It was just about how most of us try to go through life trying to live the easiest, most comfortable life possible," Korver said. "And if you look at that story at the end of the day, it's not a story you want to read. We have a good story today. It's going to be a little bit harder, and we've got to pull together a little bit tighter, and we've got to play a little bit better. But we can." (这段是说KK是受到一本书的激励) I may wake up in the morning regretting the words I am about to type. I may have simply been brainwashed by the Revs. Korver and Thibodeau, who were not so much preaching as philosophizing. But I believe the Bulls can return to the Eastern Conference finals. And once there, I think anything is possible. 「有天也许我早上醒来後，会因为我将打出的内容感到遗憾，我可能只是单纯地， 被KK还有Thib以如此理性而非布道的方式洗脑了。但我相信，公牛可以回到东区决赛， 一旦真的到了这步，我想任何事都会发生。」 Thibodeau spent the morning hammering one central message to his team and that is: They need to simply do their job, that no one should try to make up for the loss of Rose, that no one's role should change. "I think it comes back to who you are as a team," Thibodeau said. "I don't want us to change. [You must] stay with what you are as a team and for us, it's the defense, it's the rebounding, keeping our turnovers low, inside-out. Whether it's off the dribble or through the post-up, the ball has to hit the paint. (这段是提到Thib认为，球员需要做的仍然是扮演好自己的角色，不要刻意去弥补， 或多做些什麽。) "And the final thing is sharing the ball. We've got to keep the ball moving. But then we have to do that when Derrick plays also, so from that standpoint , I don't think we have to change. It's impossible to make up for Derrick's individual greatness, but our collective greatness can cover that up." We all know, or at least those of us who have been following the Bulls more closely than, say, overheated Miami fans with an unnatural predisposition for message boards, that these Bulls are no ordinary team. If you took Michael Jordan off any of the championship Bulls teams, there would not have even been a discussion about whether they still had a chance to advance in the playoffs or possibly win a title. With all due respect to some pretty good NBA benches, none of those teams were equipped to fill that void. Jordan dominated play while Rose, while also dominant, facilitated it. And perhaps more importantly, none of the former teams' reserves had experience as starters the way five of the Bulls' regular bench-mobbers have had for a combined 79 starts this season (including a substantial number for backup guards Ronnie Brewer with 43, C.J. Watson, 25, Korver, seven, and John Lucas III, two.) In case anyone needs reminding, the Bulls played pretty well in the 27 games this season without Rose. Statistically, they played better defensively and while they scored eight less points (per 48 minutes) than with Rose on the court, they arguably moved the ball better and played a better team game. Giving Thibodeau the task of playing without Rose while knowing it is not a fluid situation, and one thing the Bulls will not be is unprepared. "The big thing," Thibodeau said, "is in many ways, we played more than 27 games without Derrick. We played a lot without him, so from that standpoint, we know exactly what we're going to run. … "Look, our starters have only played together in 15 games. The versatility of that second unit; for them, putting a guy in the starting unit is not a big adjustment and vice versa. … Those guys go back and forth all the time and have handled that extremely well." Consider this, as well. If the Bulls get past the second round (which would be an easier task if they play the Atlanta Hawks) and actually meet Miami again in the Eastern Conference finals, they will be the Cinderella story of the year, the nation's darlings and be carrying considerable momentum from having obviously played well to that point. And at that point? Well, yeah, that's when pixie dust will be required. But I'm guessing they will have picked up a few believers by then. (上面的跟很多文章都重覆了) And Korver will be leading the way. "When things are tough, that's when a lot of good can happen in life," he said. "My grandpa has a saying that God does his best work in life's graveyards. It kind of makes sense, you know, that hopefully something good can come out of this for Derrick, for our team, for the whole city of Chicago." Maybe, he said, those 27 games were fate's way of preparing them for what they are facing now. "We feel like we have enough to win with and Thibs' saying is ingrained in our mind -- we have more than enough to win," he said. "But we believe it. If you hear something enough, it sticks with you and we have a lot of faith in C.J. and John Lucas and ourselves. And we're going to go out there and play hard and see what happens." (命运的安排，季赛的那27场比赛，也许是冥冥之中为了现在所安排好的。) --
