James Harden Thinks He Gets Wrongly Critiqued Because He "Out-Thinks The Game"
James Harden认为大家对他的批评是错误的 因为他在打球上 "想得比大家快"
When it comes to NBA watercooler talk, James Harden is among the most
polarizing players of his generation. There’s no debate that he’s one of
the most gifted scorers in league history, and his ability to create off the
dribble and get his shot off against any defender is second-to-none.
当大家在闲聊有关NBA的事情时，James Harden大概会是这世代球员里面最两极化的球员。
毫无疑问，在NBA史上，Harden是最有天赋的得分好手之一，面对任何防守球员，他能够运
球创造出空间得分的能力是无庸置疑的。
You can hardly even argue against the resulting effect on his team in the
regular season, at least. The playoffs are a different story entirely. Harden
and the Rockets, though they’ve come close to upsetting the dynastic
Warriors on at least two occasions, have been unable to clear the final
hurdle of the Western Conference to reach an NBA Finals.
而且，至少在正规赛，对于Harden带给球队的效应也是没什么好争论的。不过在季后赛就
是不同的故事，Harden所率领的火箭虽然两度差点就让勇士王朝翻船，但是火箭就是没办
法突破西区冠军赛到NBA总冠。
That troubling reality provides more than enough fuel for his detractors, who
remain a vocal and ardent contingent. Harden himself isn’t oblivious to
this, and on Wednesday before his Rockets prepared to square off against the
West’s newest usurpers, the Clippers, he gave a somewhat rare sitdown
interview to ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith and addressed his critics directly.
这些事实提供了胡黑充足的原料，四处放送。而Harden自己对这样子的状况并非漠不关
心，在今天面对快艇比赛之前，他接受了SAS的访问，直接表达他对这些批评的看法。

When asked what he believes critics get wrong about his game, Harden
responded, “Everything. He’s looking for foul calls, or he flops, or his
style of play can’t win. Well, in a system of basketball, if a team is
running an offense, who do you want to have the ball in their hands at the
end of the game? The best player. In all the stuff that happens and the stuff
we’re running, the coach has the ball in my hands, or in Russ’ hands. As
far as drawing or looking for fouls, I just go out there and play basketball.
I out-think the game. I’m faulted for that.”
当他被问到对于那些批评他打比赛的说法，他觉得这些评论是不是错的，他说，“每个评
论都是错误的。他们说我都一直买犯，或是说我假摔，或是说我这种打球的方式是不会赢
球的。好，在一个篮球体系里面，若是一支球队要打进攻，你认为在比赛末段时，他们会
把球交给谁？当然是最好的球员阿。所以我们现在在火箭打的状况就是，教练会把球交到
我的手上，或是Russ的手上。至于说我吸引别人犯规或是我买犯的说法，我只是上场打篮
球而已，我想得比别人快(Out-think the game)，那是我的错。”
Indeed, Harden is regularly criticized for hunting foul calls, especially in
those instances where it appears it comes as the expense of actually making a
play. In addition, the Rockets’ iso-heavy approach and machine-like
adherence to the value of three-pointers and shots at the rim makes some
critics feel like the Rockets are trying to strip basketball down to its
mathematical variables at the expense of the beauty of the game.
的确，Harden因为买犯这事一直为人所批评，尤其在某些状况是他似乎真的做出动作来
买。除此之外，火箭非常依赖单打以及如机器般非常强调三分球以及篮框附近的得分的方
式也引来批评，认为火箭把打球变成只是在做数据分析，而丧失了篮球比赛的美丽。
Nonetheless, it doesn’t appear Harden is going to alter his approach to suit
the critics anytime soon, regardless of the outcome.
然而，不管结果会是如何，看起来近期内Harden似乎不会改变他打球的方式好让那些批评
平息下来的。
