原文http://0rz.net/7215e LOS ANGELES –- When Pau Gasol received an $86 million maximum contract exten sion two summers ago, he emphasized the idea that accomplishments are the tru e measure of a man's wealth. 当贾索儿两年前接受一笔8400万的顶级合约後,他相信一个人的成就取决於他的财富 On Thursday, the 7-foot forward provided an early, exciting return on the Gri zzlies' investment when NBA coaches selected him as a reserve on the Western Conference All-Star roster. 这位7尺前锋在星期二得知他入选今年西区的All-Star Gasol, 25, is the first player in franchise history to earn a place in an All -Star game. He'll also serve as the first Spanish player in NBA history to be selected to an All-Star team when the mid-season classic tips off Feb. 19 at Houston's Toyota Center. 贾索儿今年25岁,他既是灰熊的第一个All-Star,也是西班牙籍的第一位 他将参加2月19号在休士顿Toyota中心举办的全明星赛 "It's huge," Gasol said. "The impact in Spain is going to be huge. It will be talked about for a while, and I hope people in Memphis feel the same way. I hope they are proud of me. Everybody should feel a part of this." "这对我很重要"贾索儿说,"这对西班牙也很重要,这件事会被大家讨论" "希望在曼菲斯的球迷也能这麽想,我希望他们以我为荣,而这个荣耀是属於大家的" Gasol was listed on the fan ballot as a forward. But the coaches chose to cla im him as the backup center to starter Yao Ming. 贾索儿虽然在西区登录为前锋,但是西区教练将他列为明星赛姚明的替补 Expect debates to rage involving players who were snubbed from the seven-man reserve roster. But Gasol's consistency and the Grizzlies' early success made him deserving. 有很多人质疑他参加明星赛的资格,不过贾索儿坚信是灰熊队的好战绩帮了他一臂之力 He is enjoying career-high averages in points (19.5), rebounds (9.2), assists (4.3), blocks (1.9) and minutes (39.4). 无论平均得分(19.5),篮板(9.2),助攻(4.3),火锅(1.9)还有上场时间(39.4)皆为生涯新高 Gasol's 19 double-doubles were a major reason why the Grizzlies once owned a 23-11 record. The coaches obviously believed a team that ranked among the top five in the NBA for most of the first half of the season warranted an all-st ar. 贾索儿本季目前19次double-doubles的表现帮助灰熊一度拥有23是11败的好成绩 在上半季灰熊曾是全联盟最好的五支球队之一也是贾索儿入选的原因 "With the start we got off to, there has to be some people doing an outstandi ng job," Griz coach Mike Fratello said. "His numbers would justify that he's taken his game to the next level. Sometimes people only look at numbers. When coaches are voting they look at winning also. The start was paramount and pe ople stood up and took notice." "当球季开始,总会有人表现特别好"费老大说,"他确实将自己提升到更好的层次" "很多人看重数据,教练们在票选西区替补方面也是,如果是一个队的领袖更容易让人注目" Gasol credited his rebirth during the offseason -- something that began with resting instead of competing in the European Championships. 贾索儿在去年球季结束时保证他将会重生,并且婉拒参加欧锦赛让自己全心练球 "I wanted really bad to step up and be a better player and produce more," sai d Gasol, who is one of only four players to rank in the top 10 in points, reb ounds, assists and blocks among Western Conference forwards this season. "My feeling in training camp was different. I was hungry. I was totally refreshed and renewed. I was fully energized. Plus, the coaching staff has given me th e opportunity to play the amount of minutes that provides me with more confid ence. And the new players we acquired this summer made a difference as far as chemistry." "我非常渴望让自己成为一个更好的球员"贾索儿说 他也是唯四在西区前锋里得分,篮板,助攻和火锅都在排行榜前10的球员之一 "在训练营的时候我有了以前从未有过的感受" "我想要变强,我想要完全超越过去的自己" "我全身充满精力,教练也给我更多上场时间好让我证明自己的能耐" "暑假加入的新成员也带来完全不同的化学效应" Griz president Jerry West was out of the country scouting and unavailable for comment. He campaigned for Gasol during the first two months of the season. 灰熊总管West爷爷最近在国外参加会议,无法及时给予评论 "He gives use a little more justification," Griz majority owner Michael Heisl ey said Thursday while boarding a flight for Los Angeles. "He's worth every c ent. He's a tribute to the city and to the Grizzlies. He's a consummate gentl eman. It's a pleasure to be associated with Pau. I couldn't be happier." "他让我们讨回公道"灰熊的董事长Michael Heisley这麽说 "他完全不辜负他所得到的每一分每一毛.他是曼菲斯,也是灰熊队的礼物" "他是个彻底的绅士,我对能与贾索儿共事感到荣幸而且高兴至极" Teammates were overjoyed by the news of Gasol's selection. Center Lorenzen Wr ight's eyes widened and he spoke in a high pitch while heaping praise on Gaso l. 得知贾索儿入选後灰熊全队的队员大暴动 莱特高声乱叫,称赞贾索儿到底有多好 Shane Battier swelled with pride as if Gasol was a little brother who could f inally take the training wheels off his bike. 箱杯兴奋得跟他弟刚学会骑脚踏车一样高兴(唔...这感觉怪怪的) "It's nice for him to get national recognition because we don't get that much exposure," Battier said. "It's nice that people around the league feel like he's an all-star player and I know he'll represent us well." "他能受到全国的注目真是太好了!因为我们没有这个机会"箱杯说 "大家都认为他是个all-star,而且我知道他会好好称赞我们" That Phoenix's Amare Stoudemire hasn't played this season because of knee sur gery could have made an easier road for Gasol on an already difficult path. T he conference is loaded with elite power forwards, and the coaches backed up that notion by adding Dirk Nowitzki, Elton Brand, Kevin Garnett and Shawn Mar ion. 太阳的Stoudemire因为膝伤本季到目前为止都没有出赛,也给了贾索儿一个好机会 西区教练想破了头,最後决定在大前锋方面选了Nowitzki,Brand,Garnett和Marion "Pau's had a great year on a winning team. It's a tough selection in the West this year," Phoenix point guard Steve Nash said. "So that makes it a terrifi c honor amidst all of those great forwards." "Pau在一支常胜军里有极佳的表现,尤其是今年西区战况如此激烈" 太阳队控球後卫Nash说,"这让他在西区众多大前锋里看起来毫不逊色" Before retiring, former Griz coach Hubie Brown called Gasol "one of the premi er power forwards we have in the league. 在退休前,前灰熊教练老布朗叫贾索儿"联盟第一大前锋" "And then you put the factor of his age into that," Brown said. "What we have is our team leader and our go-to guy. ... What we now have is a stabilizing force. He knows his worth." "他还那麽年轻"老布朗说,"他是我们的领导者,我们的关键人物..." "他正在稳定成长,他知道他的价值" Gasol acknowledged that he expected the all-star berth. Hearing the news stil l shocked him. 贾索儿虽然认为他有all-star的实力,听到这个消息还是吓了一跳 "It's something I've always wanted to hear," Gasol said. "I'm still kind of s hocked. It's a great thing. I'm so thankful to everybody that has contributed to me being there. It hasn't been that long ago that I was still a kid just playing. I never could have imagined this happening to me." "这正是我最想要听到的"贾索儿说,"虽然这有点不可置信,但能受到肯定真好" "我感谢过去曾经帮助过我的每个人,在不久前我还是个菜鸟" "现在发生的事我连作梦都没想到" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Welcome our first all-star player!
