Durant cites Damian Lillard's quote in response to question about pressure
Oakland native and Portland Trailblazers star Damian Lillard had a
refreshingly honest answer when he was asked in 2017 about the pressures of
playing in the NBA. The quote, via Sporting News, resurfaced in recent weeks.
2017年,波特兰球星Damian Lillard有个关于"压力说"的言论,
最近几周又再度被体育新闻翻出来讨论。
“Pressure, nah. Fam, this is just playing ball,” Lillard said. “Pressure
is the homeless man, who doesn’t know where his next meal is coming from.
Pressure is the single mom, who is trying to scuffle and pay her rent.
“We get paid a lot of money to play a game. Don’t get me wrong ─ there are
challenges. But to call it pressure is almost an insult to regular people.”
对于压力,Lillard表示:
“压力,不,哥们,我们只是在打球而已。
压力在于那些无家可归不知道下一餐在哪的人,
压力在于那些单亲妈妈每个月为了房租而烦恼。
我们打一场比赛就能赚进很多钱,别误会我的意思,挑战确实是存在的,
但如果把这称作是一种压力的话,对普通人来说是一种污辱。”
That quote made its way to Kevin Durant, who referenced it after his 29-point
performance in Golden State's 115-109 win over Houston in Game 2 Tuesday.
Durant was asked whether he enjoys the playoffs and get can look beyond the
pressure that comes with it.
这番回应引起了Kevin Durant的注意。
在火勇第二战,KD全场攻下29分帮助勇士以115:109击败火箭。
赛后访问时,KD被记者问到他是否享受季后赛并且能够扛住随之而来的压力?
"Once you realize its’s just basketball, the pressure a lot of these guys go
through when they realize how they come up is, what their families have been
through, this isn’t really pressure to them," Durant said. "I seen a quote
from Damian Lillard the other day, and I thought that was perfect what he
said. If you haven’t seen it, go look at it. It was a long quote, you should
go look at it.
KD表示:
“一旦你意识到这不过是篮球,对比很多人身上背负著养家餬口的压力,
他们家人所面对的压力,篮球所带来的压力就不算什么了。
几天前我看了Damian Lillard的那番言论,我觉得他说得很正确。
如果你还不清楚他到底说了啥,去看一下吧,是个很长的摘句,你们应该去看一下。”
"But he summed it up perfectly, what pressure means when you talk about NBA
players, and I think a lot of guys feel that way. But it’s just fun, it’s
fun being out there. What’s the worst that could happen to either team? Both
lose, and we got another game. One team lose, and you play another game. I
think once everybody looks at it in a more wide view of things, I think there
’s not that much pressure."
“他的那番话总结得很完美,当你在谈论NBA比赛带来的压力时,
我认为很多球员都会这么想。
这很有趣,上场比赛很有趣,对双方球队而言最坏的情况是什么?
两支球队都输球,那我们再打一场吧。有一队输球,那你就好好准备下一场吧。
我想一旦每个人放宽眼界去看待事情的话,那就不会感到有什么压力了。”
