When the Celtics needed a true leader they found one in Kemba Walker
当绿衫军需要一位真正的领袖时，他们找到了— Kemba Walker。
The Celtics' coach has had just one captain during his tenure with the team,
that being Rajon Rondo in his first season with the Celtics. The idea being
that everyone in the locker room should have a voice, not just one player
with a 'C' on his chest.
赛尔提克的教练在任职期间只有一位队长，就是执教在赛尔提克的第一个赛季，队中的Ra
jon Rondo。更衣室理想中的每个人都应该有声音，而不仅仅是一个胸前带有"C"字样的球
员。
That approach proved dicey last season when the best player, Kyrie Irving,
wasn't always the best player for the group to follow into battle. And some
might have thought the same sort of dysfunction was prevalent earlier in the
week when 2 a.m. hotel room meetings were necessitated due to locker room
outbursts.
上个赛季，最好的球员Kyrie Irving并不总是球队中最能参与比赛的最佳球员，
这种方式是有风险的。有些人可能以为一样的情况在本周早些时候同样存在，
当时由于更衣室正在气氛，需要在凌晨2点召开酒店房间会议。
But sometimes you just know who is the captain without putting a title on it.
For the Celtics, that is Kemba Walker.
有时候你没办法看见队名就想到队长是谁。对赛尔提克来说，那就是Kemba Walker。
In case there was any doubt about who represented the top of the heap when it
came to in-uniform leadership Walker put any debate to rest Friday night. It
was the 30-year-old guard who didn't have necessarily the best game (15
points in 28 points) in the Celtics' 121-108 Game 5 win, but he did possess
the most powerful voice when it counted the most.
万一有人对领袖之中，谁占据主导地位有任何疑问，Walker将在周五晚上
回答任何问题。在G5的时候，这位30岁的后卫不一定有最好的成绩(28分钟15分)，
但大多数时候，他拥有最有力的声音。
Down by as many as 12 in the first half, and carrying a seven-point deficit
into halftime, Walker made his presence felt.
上半场最多落后12分，半场结束落后7分，这时Walker展现存在感。
“What I remember from halftime is Kemba saying, 'We just need to settle down
a little bit,'” Jaylen Brown said after his team's 121-108 Game 5 win.. “We
all felt the intensity that we all had in the beginning. I don't think we
came out flat. It was different from Game 4 for us. We had the intensity; it
was just coming out all over the place for us. We just had to dial in a
little bit.”
Jaylen Brown在赢得G5赛后说:“半场休息时，Kemba说，我们只需要静下心来，
这样就够了。”我们所有人都感受到了一开始的热情。我不认为我们表现平平。
对我们来说，这不同于第四场比赛。我们有强度；对于我们来说，它遍布所有地方，
我们只需要得到一点。
Everybody was so anxious, eager to make a play, make something happen,”
Tatum said of the team’s first-half struggles. "We know what is at stake: We
lose and go home. But, at the same time, we’ve got to relax a little bit.
Take a deep breath. We know how important every possession is, but we’ve
still got to just relax a little bit and play the game, and that was kind of
the message at halftime.
所有人都感到焦虑，渴望发挥作用，让某些事情发生，Tatum谈到球队上半场的挣扎
时说道:我们知道情况危急，输了就得回家。但是，与此同时，我们必须放松一点。
深呼吸。我们知道每一球都很重要,但我们还是得放松一点去比赛,这就是半场时的资讯。
Sure enough, the words hit the spot.
当然，这些话是对的。
Holding the Heat without a field goal for more than four minutes, the Celtics
went on a game-changing run in the third quarter, even leading Stevens to
tell his team during one of the timeouts, "All sincerity, first time I have
seen Celtics basketball in the last few games."
在热火四分钟多没有入球的情况下，赛尔提克在第三节接手了比赛，甚至在一次
暂停中，Stevens直接对他的球队说：讲真心话，最近几场比赛中，这是我第一次
看见赛尔提克的篮球。
"I hate those (mic'd up) things," the coach would say after the game.
But what he doesn't hate is the whole leadership thing sorting itself out
like it did. For that, he can thank Walker.
教练在赛后说，我讨厌那些事情(比赛时的录音）。
但他并不讨厌领导层能像这样整理自己，为此，他可以感谢Walker。
