大意是, MJ的比賽激動人心, 即使是不喜歡籃球的人, 也是。
This was my last game seeing MJ play live. The opening photo is from my
camera. Here's the story:
這是我最後一次看到 MJ的現場比賽。開頭的照片是我的相機拍的, 這是故事：
I had just started to date a new girlfriend around this time who happened to
hate basketball. Thankfully, MJ was in town so I decided to get some quick
tickets at $400 apiece so she could say she saw MJ live to her grandkids. I
heard standing room tickets at game-time were going for $800 so I felt great
paying what I did - especially with my girlfriend complaining about going to
a basketball game on the way there.
我之前才和一個新女朋友約會, 她剛好討厭籃球。幸好, MJ 那時在城裡, 我決定花 400
美金一張的票錢, 讓她能和孫子說奶奶有在現場看過 MJ。我聽說 standing room一張要
800美金, 所以我覺得撿到便宜, 尤其是我女友抱怨要去看球賽時
(平衡女友抱怨的心態)
Now, seeing MJ live as a Wizard was bizarre but when he entered the stadium,
as usual, it was as if all the air was sucked out of the room. Everyone stood
up, camera lights flashed non-stop and the remembrance of what this man had
done in his career as the greatest there ever will be filled the room thick.
MJ standing on the court with his hands on his hips felt as if his elbows
were touching one side of the stadium to the other. His presence was beyond
gripping.
看到 MJ 以巫師球員的身份進入體育館有點奇怪。如同以往, 感覺好像所有的空氣都被
吸進室內。每個人都站了起來, 閃光燈閃不停, 回憶這個人在生涯中, 都會是最偉大的
氛圍厚厚地填滿了房間。 MJ在場上, 手放在屁股上, 好像手肘碰到了館內的2端。他的
出現是激動人心的。
The game started with MJ missing some easy jumpers so he switched to
attacking the basket. At age 38 with the bum knee, it was incredible. He
gathered more highlight moves in this one game while scoring an efficient
26pts than most players do in an entire season. Of course, playing this way
in the Garden was never a surprise.
一開始 MJ沒投進一些跳投, 所以他轉成攻擊籃框。對38歲的人和他的膝蓋, 實在不可
思議。這一場他有效率地拿下 26分, 比多數人一整季還得到更多 highlight
(精采鏡頭?)。當然, 在紐約花園這樣的表現不算什麼。(意思指在NY, MJ都打得很好?)
But the amazing part of the game was what was happening to Sprewell as MJ
smothered him mano-a-mano. MJ's mind-body challenge was giving him nerves of
jello and Sprewell went a disastrous 0-10 until MJ sat on the bench when he
finally made his first bucket. Lucky for Spree, the Knicks were playing well
inside and the Wiz had to play catch up the entire time.
但是精采的部分在於, MJ 面對面 Sprewell的室息式攻防。 MJ給了他很大的精神壓力,
Sprewell 10投不進, 直到 MJ坐在板凳上休息時, 他才得分。Spree算幸運, 尼克打得
很好, 巫師整場在追分。
With NY up by 10 late in the 4th, MJ turned on his legend and willed his team
with his customary, dramatic comeback. By this point, the score was tied and
my girlfriend was on the edge of her seat - strictly because the drama of who
was going to win overwhelmed her. I said to her, 'Jordan's going to get the
last shot and he's going to hit it. That's what he does. I guarantee it.' And
when the moment happened, she jumped out of her seat with the rest of the
Garden in amazement. She became, enlightened. And although she returned to
hating basketball, she would forever tell stories about the one time she saw
MJ. This was the essence of what Michael Jordan was to the world.
第4節尼克還有領先10分, 而MJ 傳奇般地帶領他的隊伍。這時2隊打到拉據戰, 我女友
坐在位子的邊緣, 誰會贏的戲劇情節佔據了她的心思。我對她說, 「Jordan會在最後時刻
得分並且贏球, 這就是他做的事, 我敢保證。」當那時刻來臨, 她驚喜跳出她的位子, 和
整個花園的人一樣。她很欣喜。雖然之後她又回復成討厭籃球, 她永遠可以說這個故事,
那一次她曾看過 MJ的比賽。這就是 MJ 對世界的意義。
