Kings Coach Reggie Theus set to show he's still in fashion Reggie Theus很夯啊！ http://www.orlandosentinel.com/sports/basketball/magic/orl-magic2408feb24,0,452 120.story?page=2 感恩 The former Magic guard returns to Orlando tonight as the first-year coach of the Sacramento Kings. 前魔术後卫如今以国王新教头身份重返奥兰多。 After one season of his signature smile, mustache, baby 'fro and physical scoring presence, the Orlando Magic muscled out their first real star in 1990 to make room for a young Nick Anderson. 阳光微笑！娃娃脸！性感胡子！还有壮硕的身材！没想到当年魔术竟然想把这种票房 巨星换掉，就为了帮年轻的Nick Anderson铺路。 Former Magic General Manager Pat Williams assumed the guy he traded to the New Jersey Nets for two second-round draft picks would spend the rest of his life strolling the Sunset Strip instead of NBA sidelines. 前魔术GM Pat Williams 以为被他交易出去的这家伙可能会进入好莱坞，而不是留在 NBA 执教。（只用两个二轮选秀权篮网就把Theus骗到手了...） "He was strikingly handsome, movie handsome," said Williams, now the Magic's senior vice president. "I don't think anybody saw him as a coach. We sure saw a future in Hollywood or modeling." 「他真的很帅，就像那些电影明星一样。我们都认为进好莱坞将是他的人生下一步， 没想到他竟然跑回来当教练。」Williams说。 Theus will make his first return to Amway Arena today modeling a designer suit as an up-and-coming NBA coach. In his first season, Theus has coached an injury-riddled Sacramento Kings team to a respectable 26-28 record entering tonight's game against the Magic. Theus 将会在他重返Amway Arena 的这天穿上帅气的西装。本季，Theus 带着伤痛不 断的国王队取得了值得骄傲的战绩，在对阵魔术前，国王是26胜28败。 Perhaps it's ironic that Theus' longest-tenured coaching job came playing the role of Bill Fuller for four seasons on the NBC sitcom Hang Time. 大家都没想到吧！在NBC 的情境喜剧Hang Time中演了四季Bill Fuller 後，Theus 竟然真的成为教头啦！ （注：Theus真的有去演戏，http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0857696/） The same doors that closed in Hollywood have opened in coaching. 上帝为你关了好莱坞之门，就会为你开另一扇门。 That guest spot on the show Viper didn't pan out, but there was that one time Rick Pitino took a chance on Theus as a Louisville assistant for two seasons. 在演艺之路没有发光後，路易维尔大学的Rick Pitino 给了他一个机会，让他在那边 当了两季的助理教练。 （注：所以Garcia当年有受教於Theus？Theus任教於2003–2005） That commentator job for the now-defunct Slamball fizzled, but he revived a struggling New Mexico State program in two seasons as head coach there. 当播报员的工作失败後，新墨西哥州大又请他去当两季的教练。 Florida Coach Billy Donovan and Magic Coach Stan Van Gundy cleared the NBA path for Theus, who took New Mexico State from six wins in 2005 to the NCAA Tournament in 2007. 也要多亏佛罗里达大学的Billy Donovan 和现魔术的Stan Van Gundy没接下这份工作 。成功带领新墨西哥州大大变身的Theus 才能脱颖而出。 Van Gundy would be in Sacramento right now if it weren't for Donovan's cold feet with the Magic job. When Donovan backed out of the deal, Van Gundy came to Orlando instead of accepting an offer from the Kings. 大范现在应该会坐在Theus 的位置上，但因为Donovan 的变卦，一切就产生了大变化 。Donovan 最後决定留在佛大，而大范也马上转向奥兰多。 "I thanked both of them for that," Theus said. "I sent a message to Billy through Rick [Pitino]. I told Stan thanks face to face." 「我透过Rick Pitino 对Billy 说了谢谢，当然大范也是。如果不是两位，我可能真 的现在在好莱坞混饭吃。」Theus说。 Theus' NBA pedigree of more than 19,000 career points and 6,000 career assists helped his chances with the Kings. But his quick coaching ascension in five years in the business has Theus hoping to become one of the NBA's elite coaches. 在他的职业生涯，Theus 得了超过19000 分，另外还有6000次助攻，这些生涯成绩是 帮助他上位的重要因素。他也期许自已成为一个优异的教练。 "I know when I was playing [in Orlando] I wasn't thinking about being a coach," Theus said. "But I learned I like fighting the fight. This is what I'm supposed to be doing. I've got a lot to learn, but I wish to become one of the great NBA coaches." 「当我在奥兰多打球时，我没想过当教头，可当我发觉这种耍心机的工作有多好玩後 ，我就决定这是我未来的职业。我还有很多要学，但我希望有天我能成为一位伟大的教练 。」Theus说。 Drawing from his experiences with the Magic has helped Theus as Kings coach, he said. The idea of another season or two in Orlando sounded appealing to Theus, then 32, who averaged 18.9 points per game as a marketable face of the first-year franchise. 在魔术的经验对他的国王教头工作很有帮助。其实当年32岁的Theus 很希望在那边多 留一两季，要知道他那一季可是队上的得分王（平均18.9分）。 Theus said he was traded without warning. Noting the uneasiness he felt after the trade, Theus said he has vowed to be up-front with his players. Theus 说当年他是无预警下被卖。在被交易之後他觉得心中无限委屈，所以他支持球 员多多表达心中的想法。 "I really liked it there," said Theus, who played one season with New Jersey before retiring. "We could have built a home there and stayed in Orlando." 「我很喜欢奥兰多，我好希望能在那边有个家，并且留在那里。」接下来在篮网打了 一季就退休的Theus 说。 （注：大家都这麽喜欢奥兰多...大范去了，Theus也身在曹营心在汉...） Williams said he figured Theus wanted to stay in Orlando, but he didn't want another player looking over the shoulder of Anderson, Orlando's first draft pick. Williams说他知道Theus 很想留下来，但他不希望有人挡到Anderson的成长之路，毕 竟Anderson可是奥兰多的首位选秀球员。 "It was a good move to draft him, and it was a good move to trade him," Williams said. "He gave us one important year to get our team established. He gave us excitement and great memories. He gave us flash and dash." 「选到他很荣幸，但这麽帅让我很嫉妒，所以交易是必然的。他在队上的一年帮助我 们建立了球队的基础，留下了很多美好的回忆。」Williams说。 Now he's giving a dose of solid coaching, according to some of his peers. Van Gundy said in January that Theus could be a coach-of-the-year candidate because of how the Kings have played hard through injuries, most notably to Mike Bibby (now an Atlanta Hawk), Kevin Martin and Ron Artest. 现在Theus 已经在执教上展现了他的才能。大范在一月时说Theus 应该有机会争取年 度最佳教练，因为国王的阵容真的很囧，Bibby 、Martin、Artest三大主将都伤伤伤。 The formula for Theus' coaching starts with simple observations that evolve into his own blueprint, he said. He admires many styles -- Gregg Popovich's confidence, Phil Jackson's philosophical approach, Jerry Sloan's "realness," Pitino's game-planning. Theus 的执教风格是透过观察来逐渐开始自已的计划。他也很钦佩多位前辈的优点， 比方说波波维奇的自信，史龙教皇的牵引机哲学，Pitino的比赛策划，另外像禅师睡着睡 着就能赢球也不错。 His own signature moves include an accountability tool he calls "put your name on it" and purposefully hiring a tall assistant coaching staff so everyone sees eye to eye when they talk. Theus也有些独特的做事方法。（这一段我真的不会翻Orz，恳请各位帮忙） There's a way to call out players without embarrassing them, Theus said. 在把球员叫到身旁时，Theus 也会试着不让他们感到难堪。 "When I played, the coach ruled the roost," Theus said. "I remember that as a player, the best coaches were really tough. Certainly some things have changed. I'd say guys are more sensitive because they have so many people around them and so many people involved in their lives. Trust takes time. I guess it all comes down to being real with guys." 「当我还是球员时，教练就是皇帝，最好的教头往往都是最严厉的那群。可是现在情 况已经不同了。现在的小伙子都是草莓族，喔！我是说他们比较敏感啦，因为有太多人会 与他们接触，所以要取得人与人之间的信任就会花上比较多时间。我相信在我的一片诚心 下，他们都会被我打动。」Theus说。 Magic General Manager Otis Smith, who played with Theus on that inaugural team, said Theus had coaching instincts as a player. 魔术现任GM Otis Smith曾经和Theus 一起打过球，他说身为教头或球员的Theus 都 很不错。 Except that one time Theus recommended the two switch defensive assignments so Smith would guard Michael Jordan. Theus instructed him to force Jordan into jumpers. Jordan finished with 52 that night, Smith said. 但有一次对上公牛时，Theus 建议两人交换防守的对象。Smith 因此对上了Jordan， 赛前Theus 告诉Smith ，你就让他跳投，不要让他切入。Jordan因此只得到五十二分。 Thanks a lot, coach. 教练，您真内行！ Eighteen years later, Theus is still making Smith squirm a little. The Kings beat the Magic 104-100 in January. 十八年後，Theus 又带着国王耍了Smith 一次。国王在一月以104比100击败了魔术。 "[Theus' hiring] caught everyone off guard I think," Smith said. "But he's fresh blood who knows our game and has been around the game." 「会请Theus 执教是大家都没想到的事，但我想这位新教头知道怎麽带他的球员来打 比赛。」Smith说。 Perhaps that's what's fashionable these days. 所以Theus 还是很夯。 -- 总共花了三个小时才完工，但是还是很多怪怪的地方，有错请指正<(__ __)> 有一段几乎完全不会翻，恳请大家帮忙 大家别忘了去支持啦啦队啊 http://www.nba.com/features/dance08_west1_sas_v_sac.html?bid=NBADANCE08_hp --
