这是一篇颇详细的骑士队今年如何跌跌撞撞的回顾文,
除了很多众所皆知的事件外,也有一些事件后的内幕,
有关于LeBron如何领导球队的一些细节和与队友的互动,
也提到Lue和LeBron是如何的教练-球员关系,
以及当初换教练骑士内部的决策过程等等
原文很长,慎入。
不过对这次骑士创历史夺冠有兴趣者应该还是有一点回顾价值。

Won for The Land: How LeBron bore the weight of a city
-by Ramona Shelburne
LeBron如何背负著整个城市去赢得冠军
IT WAS LATE, but apparently not too late.
时候有些晚了,但是一切还不是太迟。
The Cleveland Cavaliers had lost the first two games of the NBA
Finals by a combined 48 points. The Golden State Warriors were
dominating every phase of the game. And LeBron James was looking
for something, for anything, he could say to his teammates to help
them believe a comeback was possible.
骑士队在总冠前两场被勇士屠杀。而赛后LeBron不断在寻找任何能让
他的队友相信己队还能逆转的任何方式。
LeBron had spent the weekend watching old Muhammad Ali fights, in
awe at the champ's perseverance. His longtime friend and adviser,
Nike executive Lynn Merritt, had suggested he study the way Ali
carried himself in those epic 12- and 15-round fights. The way Ali
took punches, knowing his opponent would eventually tire. The way
he taunted opponents, flaunting his superior skill and talents,
knowing he would get into their heads. His teammates needed
something else, though. Something they could connect to that would
make them believe this series was not over. And so LeBron gathered
everyone in the Cavaliers locker room before Game 3 and played a
portion of Steve Jobs' commencement address to Stanford University
in 2005.
LeBron在该周末看了老阿里的比赛,并且对阿里夺冠的过程
感到不可思议。LeBron的一个老友-Nike的执行长Lynn Merritt曾经
建议过LeBron应该要多多研究阿里是如何在那些经典赛事中获得成功。
阿里可以在前几轮都貌似处于被打的劣势,知道他的对手终会疲累。
阿里也会用自身强大的技术和天分嘲讽对手,让自己深入到对手脑部。
然而对LeBron的队友而言,他必须要想到别的方式让他们相信系列还未结束。
所以LeBron在Game 3前在骑士的休息室把队友都集合起来,
并且播放了一段Steve Jobs在2005年时对Stanford毕业典礼的经典演讲。

The Apple founder, who died in 2011, had told a story about
dropping out of college and how taking a calligraphy class ended
up helping him design the elegant fonts and interface of the first
Apple computers. "Of course it was impossible to connect the dots
looking forward when I was in college. But it was very, very clear
looking backwards 10 years later," Jobs said in his address.
这一段内容是贾伯斯讲述自己如何在年轻时拿的书法课,
在日后对第一代苹果的美观字型和接口有重大影响。
他演讲时是这样作结:
“当然我还在大学时我没办法把当下拿的课和未来做连结。
但是我日后回顾时,却非常非常清楚的显示这两件事的关系。”
"You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect
them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will
somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something
