Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry has made a compelling case for
being the best basketball player in the world of late, but the reigning NBA
MVP is aiming even higher.
勇士球星说过一个令人惊叹的目标, 就是成为现今最好的篮球员, 但这位现任的MVP其
目标远高于此
In an extensive interview with ESPN the Magazine's Sam Alipour, Curry spoke
of eclipsing Michael Jordan as the best player of all time.
他想要超越Michael Jordan成为"史上"最好的篮球员
"It's a high mountain to climb, but I'm pretty motivated to take on the
challenge," said Curry of surpassing Jordan as the best ever. "Whatever that
means, however you got on that mountain, why not try to climb it? And do it
in your own way."
他说:"这是座极崇高的山, 但我很有兴趣来挑战看看, 不管这代表什么, 如果你能登上
这山的山顶为什么不去挑战呢? 尽管用你自己的方式去做就行了"
When Alipour asked Curry to confirm whether he's aiming to top Jordan, the
Warriors floor general replied, "Yeah. Why else would I be playing? You want
to be the best you can be. And if the best you can be is better than him,
then why not? That's good motivation."
记者要Curry确认的说他是不是指超越Jordan的成就, Curry回说:"对啊, 不然我是为了
什么打球的呢? 你总会想要成为你所能成为最好的人, 如果最好的你有比Jordan好, 那
为什么不那样做? 这是很棒的动力
Comparisons between this season's 22-0 Warriors and the Jordan-led 1995-96
Chicago Bulls, who posted the best-ever NBA record of 72-10, have inevitably
surfaced. Why not feed the fire to a debate that could become extremely
heated in the years to come?
对开季22连胜的勇士来说, 被拿来跟1995-96由Jordan领军打出例行赛72-10的公牛相比
已经是无可避免的事情了, 那为何不在这股势头上顺势拼一下未来咧?
Curry may already be the best shooter ever, and as he hinted, he'd have to go
about topping Jordan in his own way. The 27-year-old point guard plays a
different position than Jordan, who was a shooting guard, but he is
nevertheless perhaps the best long-distance shooter in NBA history.
Curry已经是史上最好的射手, 此外也如他所说的, 他得去用自己的方式来超越Jordan,
27岁的Curry在场上打的是PG不是Jordan的SG, 但他很可能是NBA史上最好的长距离射手
There are also many years of elite production ahead if Curry is meant to
match or surpass Jordan statistically. The Bulls legend ended an epic career
with averages of 30.1 points, 6.2 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 2.3 steals per
contest.
对Curry来说还有许多年去努力在数据上超越Jordan
篮球之神的生涯数据是30.1分6.2篮板5.3助攻2.3抄截
Those figures are similar to Curry's current 2015-16 line of 32.4 points, 4.9
rebounds, 5.8 assists and 2.2 steals. However, Curry needs to keep it up over
the next 60 or so games and for years to come to approach Jordan's realm.
这数据跟Curry本季很像, 目前Curry是32.4分4.9篮板5.8助攻2.2抄截, 但Curry还需要
在未来许多年里都能维持这样的数据才行
To use his own words, though, Curry is indeed doing it in his own way. He is
scoring from the perimeter at an astonishing rate this season, averaging 11.2
three-point attempts per game and hitting those shots at a 47.2 percent clip
compared to Jordan's career mark of 32.7 percent.
用Curry的话来说, 他的确在用自己的方式来挑战这目标, 用场均11.2次的三分出手次数
, 搭配47.2%的三分命中率
ESPN Sport Science host John Brenkus compared Curry to another Jordan in
providing some context for the long-range prowess:
Curry is 4 for 9 from 30+ feet this season. That’s 44.4%...better than
DeAndre Jordan from the free throw line
有人拿另一个Jordan来跟Curry做比较, 说:"本季Curry在30呎以上的距离是9中4, 44%
命中率, 比DeAndre Jordan的罚球命中率还好耶"
A stacked Golden State team may prevent Curry from reaching the heights
Jordan did as an individual. Where Curry can really make his case as the
greatest is by leading the Warriors on numerous postseason conquests,
starting with a successful NBA title defense in the next playoffs.
阵容完整且具有深度的勇士团队或许能帮助Curry在个人数据上超越Jordan, 就是他带领
著勇士夺冠的次数
Jordan has set a high standard with six championships and two runs of three
straight titles on top of his personal on-court exploits. If Curry could
eclipse the number of Larry O'Brien Trophies Jordan laid claim to, he could
well be regarded as the greatest.
Jordan有六冠以及两次三连霸, 如果Curry能够拿更多的冠军戒, 就有可能超越Jordan成
为史上最好的篮球员
