And anything else that was outside of that lane, I didn't have time for.

至於車道以外的任何事情，我都沒有時間去做。

There's a quote from one of my English teachers, a little man named Mr. Fisk.

我的一位英語老師說過一句話，他叫菲斯克先生。

He had a great quote that said, rest at the end, not in the middle.

他有一句名言說得好：休息在最後，而不是中間。

And that's something I'll always live by.

這是我永遠的座右銘。

I'm not going to rest, I'm going to keep on pushing now.

我不會休息，我要繼續努力。

There's a lot of answers that I don't have, even questions that I don't have.

有很多答案我不知道，甚至有很多問題我也不知道。

But I'm just going to keep going.

但我還是要堅持下去。

I'm just going to keep going, and I'll figure these things out as I go.

我會繼續走下去，邊走邊想辦法解決這些問題。

And you just continue to build that way.

然後，你就可以繼續這樣做下去。

So I try to live by that all the time.

是以，我一直在努力踐行這句話。

At what age did that goal become crystal clear?

這個目標是在幾歲時變得清晰的呢？

I made that deal with myself at 13 years old.

我 13 歲時就和自己做了這樣的約定。

At 13 years old?

13 歲？

13 years old. That's the deal I made.

13歲這就是我做的交易。

You were crystal clear about it?

你說得很清楚嗎？

Crystal clear.

晶瑩剔透。

And where did the inspiration come from?

靈感從何而來？

The love of the game.

對比賽的熱愛

The love of the game, the challenge.

熱愛比賽，勇於挑戰。

I would watch Magic play, I'd watch Michael play, and I would see them do these unbelievable things, and I'd say, you know, can I get to that level?

我會看魔術師打球，我會看邁克爾打球，我會看到他們做這些不可思議的事情，我會說，你知道，我能達到那個水準嗎？

I don't know, but let's find out.

我不知道，但讓我們一探究竟。

Let's find out.

讓我們一探究竟。

And so that curiosity to see where I could push this thing led me down that path, I think.

是以，我想是好奇心驅使我走上了這條道路。

I had a summer where I played basketball when I was like 10 or 11 years old.

在我 10 歲或 11 歲的時候，有一個夏天我打籃球。

And here I come, playing, and I don't score one point the entire summer.

而我來了，上場比賽，整個夏天一分未得。

Not a free throw, nothing.

沒有罰球，什麼都沒有。

Not a lucky shot, not a breakaway layup, zero points.

不是幸運投籃，不是突破上籃，是零分。

I remember crying about it and being upset about it, and my father just gave me a hug and said, listen, whether you score zero or score 60,

我記得當時我哭了，很難過，父親抱了抱我，對我說："聽著，不管你得零分還是 60 分、

I'm going to love you no matter what.

無論如何，我都會愛你。

Wow.

哇

That is the most important thing that you can say to a child.

這是你能對孩子說的最重要的話。

Because from there I was like, okay, that gives me all the confidence in the world to fail.

I have the security there.

But to hell with that, I'm scoring 60.

不過，讓它見鬼去吧，我要得 60 分。

And from there I just went to work.

從那時起，我就開始工作。

I stayed with it, and I kept practicing, kept practicing, kept practicing.

我堅持了下來，不斷練習，不斷練習，不斷練習。

I think that's when the idea of understanding a long-term view became important.

我認為，正是從那時起，理解長遠觀點就變得非常重要。

Because I wasn't going to catch these kids in a week.

因為我不可能在一週內抓住這些孩子。

I wasn't going to catch them in a year.

我不打算在一年內抓住他們。

So that's when I sat down and said, okay, this is going to take some thought.

於是，我坐下來，說，好吧，這需要花點心思。

What do I want to work on first?

我想先做什麼？

All right, shooting.

好了 射擊

All right, let's knock this out.

好了，我們開始吧

Let's focus on this.

讓我們聚焦於此。

Half a year, six months, do nothing but shoot.

When I came back the next summer, I was a little bit better.

I scored.

It wasn't much, but I scored.

This is 12, 13.

12, 13.

Then 14 came around, back half at 13, 14 years old.

後來到了 14 歲，又回到了 13、14 歲的時候。

And then I was just killing everyone.

然後我就大開殺戒。

And it happened in two years.

而這一切都發生在兩年之內。

And I wasn't expecting it to happen in two years, but it did.

我沒想到兩年後會發生這種事，但它確實發生了。

Because what I had to do was work on the basics and the fundamentals.

因為我必須做的是基礎和基本功的訓練。

But they relied on their athleticism and their natural ability.

但他們依靠的是自己的運動能力和天賦。

And because I stick to the fundamentals, it just caught up to them.

因為我堅持基本原則，所以他們也就跟上來了。

And then my body, you know, my knees stopped hurting.

然後我的身體，你知道，我的膝蓋就不再疼了。

I grew into my frame, and then it was game over.

我長成了我的樣子，然後遊戲就結束了。

Wow.

哇

Were you always competitive from the day you were born?

You were super competitive?

你很爭強好勝嗎？

Competitive with things that I participated in.

So, like, I'll put it to you this way.

所以，我這樣跟你說吧。

So, like, you know, basketball for me was the most important thing.

所以，籃球對我來說是最重要的事情。

So everything I saw, whether it was TV shows, whether it was books I read, people I talked to, everything was done to try to learn how to become a better basketball player.

是以，我所看到的一切，無論是電視節目，無論是我讀過的書，還是與我交談過的人，一切都是為了努力學習如何成為一名更好的籃球運動員。

Everything.

所有東西

Everything.

所有東西

And so when you have that point of view, then literally the world becomes your library to help you to become better at your craft.

是以，當你有了這樣的觀點，世界就變成了你的圖書館，幫助你更好地掌握自己的技藝。

So at 13 years old, I had a kill list.

所以，13 歲時，我就有了一份殺人名單。

And so, you know, they used to do these rankings.

所以，你知道，他們曾經做過這些排名。

It was Street and Smith basketball rankings.

是斯切特和史密斯的籃球排名。

And I was nowhere to be found because I was like 6'4", scrawny, like 160 pounds soaking wet.

而我卻無處可尋，因為我身高一米六四，骨瘦如柴，體重只有 160 磅，渾身溼透。

So I was like 57 on the list.

所以我在名單上排第 57 位。

And so I would look at 56, 55, all the way up to number one, who these players are, what club teams they played for.

是以，我會查看 56 號、55 號，一直到 1 號，這些球員是誰，他們效力於哪些俱樂部隊。

So when we go on an AAU travel circuit, I got to hunt them down, right?

所以當我們參加 AAU 巡迴賽時，我就得去找他們，對嗎？

And so that became my mission in high school is to check off every other person, all those 56 other names, hunt them down and knock them down.

是以，這成了我在高中的任務，那就是勾選其他所有人，所有其他 56 個名字，追捕他們，打倒他們。

So when we played at 13, I would size you up and see what your strengths and weaknesses are.

是以，當我們在 13 歲時比賽時，我會打量你，看看你有什麼長處和短處。

How do you approach the game?

你是如何進行比賽的？

Are you silly about it?

你傻了嗎？

Are you goofy about it?

你對此感到愚蠢嗎？

Are you good at it just because you're bigger and stronger than everybody else?

你比別人高大、強壯，就能勝任嗎？

Or is there actually thought and skill that you put into it?

或者，你是否真的花了心思和技巧？

And when I'd play, I'd play to my weaknesses.

當我比賽時，我會發揮我的弱點。

I always work on the things during those games that I was weak at.

在這些比賽中，我總是在自己的弱項上下功夫。

Left hand, pull up jump shot, post game.

So I have a strategy.

What was really your work ethic like and for how long did you stay disciplined?

Well, I mean, every day.

嗯，我是說，每天。

I mean, since 20 years.

我是說，從 20 年前開始。

It was an everyday process in trying to figure out strengths and weaknesses.

這是一個找出長處和短處的日常過程。

For example, jumping ability.

例如，跳躍能力。

My vertical was a 40.

我的垂直高度是 40 釐米。

It wasn't a 46 or a 45.

不是 46 號，也不是 45 號。

My hands are big, but they're not massive.

我的手很大，但並不粗壯。

So you got to figure out ways to strengthen them so your hands are strong enough to be able to palm a ball and do the things that you need to do.

是以，你必須想辦法增強它們的力量，讓你的手足夠有力，能夠握住球，做你需要做的事情。

Quickness.

And it just never changed.

It's exciting.

太激動人心了

How did you get mentally and emotionally so strong where it doesn't bother you?

Well, you got to look at the reality of the situation.

And then after that, it's, okay, well, why did those air balls happen?

Got it.

So you look at the shot.

I got to train differently.

我正在進行的負重訓練計劃，是為一個 82 場比賽的賽季量身定做的，這樣當季後賽來臨時，我的雙腿就會更有力，球也會更準。

I look at it with rationale and say, okay, well, the reason why I shot air balls is because my legs aren't there.

我理智地看待這個問題，然後說，好吧，我之所以能投中空氣球，是因為我的腿不在那裡。

I go, well, next year they'll be there.

我說，好吧，明年他們會去的。

You have to do the hard stuff and watch that game and study that game to not make those mistakes over and over again just because you weren't brave enough to face it.

你必須做艱苦的事情，觀看比賽，研究比賽，不要因為沒有勇氣面對而一錯再錯。

Not to say you'll win the next time you face it, but at least you'll give yourself a better chance.

不敢說下次面對它時你一定會贏，但至少你會給自己一個更好的機會。

It's an obsessiveness that comes along with it.

我不知道這是否就是你所說的 "曼巴心態"，但你是如何形成這種心態的？

And when did it start?

什麼時候開始的？

It started in middle school and high school because a lot of the kids that I was playing against were inner city kids.

這是從國中和高中開始的，因為我的對手很多都是城市裡的孩子。

And so you're looking at me as if, okay, this kid's soft.

所以你看我的眼神就好像，好吧，這孩子很軟弱。

It felt like they could try to be physical or try to intimidate me and do all this other stuff, which they couldn't.

And what would you do to mentally break people down then?
