Doc Rivers credits Heat's Pat Riley for influencing him to be a coach
老河归功Pat Riley影响他成为教练
MIAMI — The Philadelphia 76ers take on the Miami Heat on Monday in Game 1 of
the Eastern Conference semifinals, and there are numerous links between the
teams.
76人今天Game 1面对热火，两队之间有很多微妙的连结。
The obvious one is Jimmy Butler, who played for the Sixers in the 2018-19
season before leaving for the Heat in free agency. But Doc Rivers has
considerable history with the Heat during his coaching career. He faced Miami
in the 2010, 2011 and 2012 playoffs. He also played for Heat president Pat
Riley during his playing career with the New York Knicks.
首先是吉巴，他在2018-19球季间替76人打球，后来来到热火。不过，老河在执教岁月
也跟热火有很多的交手过，2010，2011跟2012都在季后赛与热火碰面过，他也曾在他还
是球员的时候在Pat Riley当总管的尼克队打球过。
Rivers, named a top 15 coach of all time earlier this season, actually
credits the legendary Riley for influencing him to get into coaching.
先前被提名为史上前15名教练的老河将功劳归功于Riley，影响他成为一位教练。
“I’ve been a lucky coach,” said Rivers at shootaround on Monday morning in
Miami. “I guess I would say I’m a lucky player because I played for Mike
Fratello, who’s a defensive genius, and I followed that up with Larry Brown.
I followed that up with Pat Riley, and then I go to San Antonio. Pop (Gregg
Popovich) is in the front office and that’s where our relationship started,
so I’ve been around some pretty good guys, but Riley clearly had the biggest
impact. It’s not even close.”
“我一直是个幸运的教练，”星期一在热火练球时老河说。“我猜我也会说我是个幸运
的球员，因为我替Mike Fratello打球过，他是个防守的天才，之后是跟Larry Brown，
再来是Pat Riley，后来我去了马刺，那时候波总在制服组，那也是我跟他建立关系的
开始。所以，我一直都跟一些很棒的人在一起，但是很明显地，Riley是影响我最多的，
其他人比不上。”
After his playing career, Rivers was a broadcaster, and Riley pestered him
every day to get into coaching.
在结束球员生涯后，老河成为比赛播报员，然后Riley每天去缠他，要他去当教练。
“I had no thoughts of coaching until I played for Pat Riley and the way he
did it,” Rivers added. “I thought ‘Wow, that’s pretty cool.’ He was the
one who when I did TV for three years, every day he would call me or
challenge me. When are you gonna get in the fray? He would belittle me!
Literally, because I did the Miami-New York series, and every day, he got me.
I thought he was wrong, he ended up being right.”
“在我替Pat Riley打球前，我对当教练一点概念都没有，他教球的方式，”老河说。
“我内心想，‘靠~~这也太酷了吧?!’在我那三年当播报员的期间，他每天打电话给我，
或者挑战我。在那段期间能得到啥？他会贬低我，真的，因为我那时播报热火跟尼克系列
战，每天他都会抓我的漏洞。我那时以为他是错的，但是最后证明他是对的。”
Rivers has done an excellent job leading the team in the 2021-22 season amid
the Ben Simmons saga and keeping the team focused and competitive. His time
with Riley helped him to get everything going as a leader of this team.
尽管2021-22赛季的西门大戏上演，老河还是表现很好，率领球队进军季后，让球队保持
专注跟竞争力。他与Riley相处的时间帮助他有着当球队领袖所需的所有能力。
“He inspired me, man,” he finished. “Just his speeches, his belief, and
conditioning, I was always in pretty good shape anyways so he has you
believing that you’re different than everybody else in the league and back
then, he had a foul every possession in the first five minutes rule because
they’ll stop calling them. You can’t do that anymore. … It’s his spirit
and the way he approaches the job that sets him apart.”
“老天，他是启发我的人，”老河说。“光他的演说，他的信念，他的准备，当时，我
总是保持很好的状况，而他让我相信我跟联盟里其他的人不一样。那时候，他会在开赛
前五分钟在对手每次持球都去犯规，因为裁判之后就不会判了。现在是不能这样做的
了...那是他的精神，这也是他对于教练一职所处理的方式，也是让他与众不同的方
式。”
