Yoooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
What’s up, Philly?
You good? I’m pretty good.
Today is a good day. Today we take The Process to another level.
But hold up. First, just let me have a second.
唷~~~~~~~~
费城的搭家,泥们好嘛~~~~
今天好爽,我们让「过程」迈入下一个阶段,
但先给我喘口气,我还没鬼吼鬼叫完唷。
Yoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Mom, we did it! You’re my hero.
Shauntese, we did it! You’re the best sister in the world.
Keith, here we are. You helped train me. We did it!
We all did it. We did it together as a family.
Yooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!
唷~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
妈妈你看到了嘛,我做到了,你是我的英雄。(Fultz单亲)
妹妹我们办到了,你是我世界上最好的妹妹!(难道还有别个?)
Keith教练,我们终於到站了(X),你对於我的磨练惠我良多,我们办到了!(启蒙教练
我们都办到了,我们一起办到这一切,像是一家人一般完成了这个梦想。
唷~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(到底要叫多久)
Alright, I’m done. Just had to get that out of my system.
好了我发疯发够了,该让这些远离我的脑子了,避免被充昏头。
People sometimes tell me I don’t show a lot of emotion or whatever. The
truth is, my mom raised me to never celebrate too much when things are good,
and to never get too down when things aren’t. Life throws a lot at you, she’
s always told me, so you have to stay on your toes and have faith.
But today, man … this is one of those days when I know she’d be cool with
me celebrating a little bit.
人们总是跟我说人生在世要避免过度的表现自己的情绪。
事实上,妈妈总是跟我说级便是庆祝一件美好的事情,也不该过度放肆,
但当低潮来袭的时候,我们也不该过度妄自菲薄。
人生就像是浪头一样,後浪推着前浪一样一波接着一波,
妈妈总是说,要让自己脚踏实地并自信的迎接。
It’s funny though — as excited as I am, Joel Embiid is 10 times more turnt
right now. He’s probably popping off on Twitter or IG as we speak.
Since I visited, I swear Joel’s texted me 75 times since then. I’m not mad,
I’m just concerned about his data plan.
Sorry, did I say Joel Embiid? I meant Mayor Embiid. Philly’s No. 1
spokesperson. He would be a great mayor.
事实上很有趣,即便我今天已经很兴奋了,Jojo依然比我十倍的疯。
他在Twitter跟Instagram上面实在热情到烧起来。
自从我造访过七六人队後,我对天发誓Jojo至少传了75则以上的讯息。
我不觉得烦,也没有要发好人卡给他的意思,
我只是害怕他的吃不饱网路方案会不会炸裂。
喔,我是说Joel Embiid?他其实是Jojo市长,费城第一公关长,
就算现在去当市长他也可以当一个一流的市长。
It’s crazy to finally know for sure where I’m going to be playing next
year. I just feel so relieved. It’s relief and excitement mixed together.
Because you might think that I knew all along where I was gonna go. You might
think that I was just sitting back knowing what would happen.
Not even.
When everyone was saying Boston was going to take me No. 1 for sure, even my
trainer Keith didn’t have any guarantees. I remember there was one report
that said I had refused to work out for the Sixers.
终於知道我到底要去哪打球,让我感到被救赎了。
一种圣人模式一般的狂喜降临在我的身上。
你大概以为我老早旧知道我会去哪,早就看过剧本剧透之类的。
你错惹。
当所有人都在讨论我绝对会被波士顿用状元签选中的时候,
就连Keith都没有收到任何的保证。
我记得我还看过一篇报导说我拒绝去七六人试训。
In my head I was like, Where’d they get that info? Not from my family.
But even more than that, I was like, They must not really know the real me.
Yeah, I always wanted to go No. 1, but who wouldn’t? The truth is, I just
want to play ball.
看到这种报导我实在百万个Nick Young问号,他们哪来的消息?
我的家人绝对不会说出这种话。
但除此之外我觉得这些记者并不熟悉真正的我。
对,我的确想被第一个喊出名字,但谁不想?
我真正的内心话是:教练,我想打篮球。
A lot happened last week. It’s crazy that it’s only been seven days since I
got invited to Philly. I found out last Friday morning. I woke up and thought
I was going to Boston for another workout with the Celtics.
Then Keith hit me up and said, “New plan. Philly.”
I was just waking up. So I was like, “O.K., cool. Do they have Chick-fil-A
there?”
上个礼拜实在咪咪冒冒发生很多事情。
在选秀前七天接到有关费城的消息让我觉得小脑袋瓜快要爆炸了。
我直到上个礼拜五才搞清楚这件事情。
我起来洗牙刷脸的时候我还以为我要去Boston再一次试训,
然後Keith就跟我说:「计画有变,咱们要去费城」
我唯一的想法是。「OK,没有问题,所以他们那边有Chick-fil-A嘛?」
(一家扁平面包夹鸡肉汉堡速食餐厅,特色是虔诚的教徒开的,所以主日公休)
A crispy chicken sandwich for breakfast. It’s kind of like my good luck
charm. Keith never got back to me about that important question. So I found
out for myself. I googled it immediately.
Philly does have Chick-fil-A. It has six, actually.
Seven if you count the one at the airport. Boston has zero Chick-fil-As, for
what it’s worth.
对我来说如果我需要一些幸运物,那一份辣鸡扁面包汉堡早餐是最佳选择。
Keith没有回答我这个十分重要的问题,所以我只好自己动手动脚找材料。
於是我掏出手机问狗狗。
费城真的有这家店喔。而且有六家。
如果你把机场里面那家算进去,那就有七家惹!
顺便跟你说:波士顿一家都没有,森七七!
Before we hit the road from home, no one could find my mom. She was late. My
mom is never late to anything, but that morning she was getting her hair
done. I was a little anxious, but then I calmed down because you know what?
Mom gets to do whatever she wants if she’s doing something for herself.
After all the sacrifices she made for me and my sister, Mom gets to be late
whenever she wants to. New rule.
Anyway, guess what happened when I showed up to the Sixers training facility?
They’d ordered Chick-fil-A. It was there waiting for me on a table. For
real. A bunch of sandwiches.
I don’t know how they knew, but they knew.
And I know it’s not a big deal, but a little part of me was thinking,
Respect. They did their research.
在我们准备上路之前我们找不到妈咪,他迟到惹。
母上大人从不迟到,但那天他在找丫鬟做头发~
我有点躁动,但随即我就冷静下来。
我妈妈可以为他自己做任何事情,因为他为我与我妹妹牺牲良多,
所以当他需要「你~等~会」的时候,随时都行!(笔记)
好重点是,你猜猜我到了七六人训练中心发生什麽事情?
他们订了一份Chick-fil-A。就在桌上等我。
我没臭盖,一~大堆的汉堡。
我不知道他们哪里打听来的,但他们就是这麽周到。
即便我知道这是枝节末微的小事情,但这的确是我心中一个小小的部份。
必须尊敬这些人,他们的包打听是多麽的可靠。
After I got my physical, we drove to the gym for my workout. Apparently there
was a concert in Philly that day and traffic was crazy, so we got a police
escort to the gym. Sirens and all that. When we pulled up, there were already
people waiting at the gate. But nobody outside the car could see through our
tinted windows. Some of them were like, “Yo, who is it?” And I saw other
people telling them that it was me. That was wild.
The workout was pretty normal, but the really cool thing about it was that
Joel, Rob Covington and Ben Simmons were all watching from the sidelines.
That made a big impact on me that they wanted to be there. I really
appreciated that.
体测之後,他们带我到体育馆进行练球。
那天费城有一场大型的演唱会,交通超级混乱,
所以我们从医院到训练中心的时候,条子背背有来帮我们开道。
当我们车子终於停下来的时候,门口已经有各种乡民。
虽然我们的车窗有处理过,没有人可以看到里面是谁,
但是外面四下已经开始有人交头接耳「这哪位?」「听说是Fultz!」
一切都很疯狂。
练球本身就如同例行公事一样。
但很酷的是Jojo, RoCo, Ben都在场边看我。
他们坚持陪伴我对我来说很重要,我很感谢。
Joel came up after I had finished and of course the first thing he said was,
“Trust the process.” All the guys took a picture with me and Joel was
cracking everyone up. Now I get why he’s so good on Twitter. He’s the same
guy in real life. (I’m serious: 75 texts in the last week.)
Obviously, Joel wiles out and he’s funny, but I can see that he really has
love for this team. Being the mayor, he just wants the best for everybody. I
remember seeing a video on Twitter of him working out next to Justin
Anderson. Justin was doing sled push-ups and Joel was right beside him
motivating him. It wasn’t jokes. It was real. That really stuck with me. I
want to be a part of that kind of team.
当一切结束的时候,Jojo迎向前来对着我说的第一句话就是Trust the Process.
在场所有工作人员都跟我合影,但Jojo每一张都来乱入。
现在我终於知道为什麽他是真正的推特一哥,因为他现实生活中就一样浮夸嘛。
(再度声明:一周至少七十五则讯息)
很明显的Jojo醒着的时候就是处於兴奋状态,而且非常有趣。
但我可以看见他是真心爱着这个球队。
作为「市长」,他希望大家都过得好。
我记得我在twitter上面看到他跟Simba一起训练。
Simba再做卧推的时候Joel在旁边为他打气。这不是开玩笑的,是认真的。
这样的影像常在我心中。我很希望能够加入这样一只球队。
But now that I’ve paid Joel a few compliments, I’m afraid I have to blow up
his spot.
Because if you ask me, I’m the one who really invented “Trust the Process.”
What I mean is: If you look at my journey through high school, there were
some similarities to the journey that the Sixers have been on the past few
years.
但我必须严正声明,我可能要取代他的位置。
因为你如果问我,我会跟你说我是第一个发明TTP的人!(蛤)
我的意思是,如果你看我高中时候的求学过程,
你会发现我高中球队状况就跟七六人这几年一样。
First, my sophomore year of high school I tried out for the varsity team and
I got cut.
I was pissed at first. I was embarrassed. I felt that it wasn’t fair, and I
felt I was better than a lot of the guys who made varsity.
After that, a lot of people had advice for me. They told me that I should
transfer schools. They told me that if I stayed I could hurt my chances at
getting recruited and playing in the NBA. They basically told me that — if I
didn’t quit and leave — my future could be at risk. It was scary.
I talked a lot with my mom and we made a decision. We decided to fight.
Not to quit.
首先,当我二年级的时候,我去应徵校队,但我被刷下来了。
我一开始很难接受,那令人难为情。我认为这不公平,
但我发现他们大多数比我菜,所以我释怀了(?
然後呢,很多人跟我建议我应该要转学。
他们说如果我继续在这间学校浪费时间,会影响我未来的发展,
甚至可能没办法进入联盟。
简单来说他们主张我如果不离开,我的未来将会满布荆棘,听起来很可怕。
我跟妈咪讨论了很久,而我们最後做出了决定。
我们起身战斗,不轻言放弃。
I got cut, so what? I’ll prove them all wrong when I try out again as a
sophomore. I trusted the process. My family’s process.
If you get knocked down, you stand back up again. Because that’s how my mom
raised me. She taught me and my sister to work hard, be humble and
respectful, trust in God … and that things will work out in the end.
But you don’t quit.
我被刷了,所以呢?我会再度回来并且证明他们错了。
同一年我又再试了一次,我「相信过程」,我跟家人一起奋斗的那种过程。
如果你被干倒了,那就挺起身子站直。
因为那就是我妈妈如何把我拉拔长大的方式。
他教导我跟我妹妹努力向上,为人必须谦逊并尊重他人,相信上帝,
最後一切都会变好的。
Three years later, I was on my way to UW.
Four years later, I’m on my way to Philly.
The way I see it, the Sixers’ process wasn’t too different. They’ve had
their haters. They have been losing a bunch the last couple years. But now
the energy is changing. You can feel it.
That’s that trust.
三年後,我得到了华盛顿大学的奖学金资格。
四年後,我第一顺位被费城挑中。
在我眼中,费城的「过程」,跟我过去所遭遇的没有什麽不同。
他们有很多不看好他们的人,他们也曾经在过去几年输了很多比赛。
但现在我们的能量今非昔比,不然你自己试试看。
这就是那种「相信」(过程)。
Right after my workout, I met with Coach Brown. We had met once before, at
the combine in March. I liked his style. At the combine, he asked me a
question that no one else had ever really asked me. He gave me an
end-of-the-game scenario and asked me to draw up several different plays.
I had forgotten what I’d told him. But when we met again last Friday, he
brought the question up. He reminded me what my first response had been: “
Are we home or away?”
He said no rookie had ever had that exact response to the question. He said
he liked how I thought about the game. And for me, I was happy that he was as
interested in my mind as in my handle.
当我的试训结束之後,我跟Brown教练面谈。我们之前见过一次,在三月的集体测试。
我喜欢他的调调。他当时问我一个我从来没有被问过的问题,
他模拟了一个球赛决胜期的状态,然後要我画出几个可能的战术。
我有点忘记我当时跟他说了什麽。
但这次我们再度见面,他再度抛出这个问题。
他跟我说我当时第一时间反问他:我们主场还是客场?
他说没有任何一个新秀这样回应他的问题,
而且他喜欢我对球赛的理解方式。
对於我而言,我也对他充满好感,他跟我第一次面对面时一样有趣。
We talked more about strategy and basketball philosophy and things like that.
But the most important thing that came out of our meeting was that my mom
liked Coach. The next day she told me that she had a good feeling about him
because it seemed like he really cared about developing his players. He had
told her that he really believes in his players.
And my mom believed him.
I know a lot of people have beat up on Philly because the team hasn’t been
winning a lot. But Coach Brown seems like he believes in growth and
development for his players. And when you have that from a coach, it makes
the players wanna work that much harder I think.
我们讨论了更多彼此的篮球哲学与策略的想法,
更重要的是我妈妈也喜欢Brown教练(?)
隔天他说他对教练有好感,因为他看起来真正在乎他带领的每一个球员,
并且着重於对於他们的培养。
教练甚至对妈妈说他真心的相信他带出来的每一个球员。
而我妈妈「信了」。
我知道很多人看不起七六人,因为他们输了很多比赛。
但Brown教练看起来相信他对他球员的计画与塑造。
当你有这样的一个教练,我想所有球员都愿意真心的努力向上。
I’m not going to make a ton of promises right now. I just want to tell you a
little about what to expect from me.
I’m coming to Philly to work. I’m coming to be part of the team. I’m
coming to add more life to The Process. I’m going to have a rookie mentality
— above no one, below no one.
Basically, I’m coming to give everything I have of myself. I have trust that
everything else will work out.
我不想在此膨风我可以保证很多事情。
但我想以可以在我身上期待一些小事情。
我会在费城好好努力,真心成为这个球队的一部分。
我会为了「过程」贡献我的心力。
并且在心态上把自己当作一个完全的菜鸟,跟大家在同一个起跑线上各自努力。
我会为了球队贡献我所有的一切,我相信任何可以让事情便得更好的过程。
Right, Joel?
是吧,Jojo?
