DUKE’S MIKE KRZYZEWSKI BECAME THE FIRST MEN’S DIVISION I BASKETBALL COACH TO REACH 1,000
CAREER WINS ON SUNDAY AT ST. JOHN’S.
周日击败圣约翰大学后,杜克大学的迈克·沙舍夫斯基成为了大学一级联盟男子篮球历史上第一个取得1000胜的教练。
Coaching greatness rests at the nexus of prolonged love, hate and respect.
教练的伟大,在于长久的爱、恨与尊重的结合。
Every college basketball fan feels at least one of these things toward Mike Krzyzewski, and they have felt that way for quite some time. Most college basketball fans feel two of these, and many feel all three: Non-Duke fans love to hate Krzyzewski, but anyone who doesn’t respect what he’s brought to the game of college basketball is fooling themselves. It takes an all-time great coach to inspire all those feelings for so many years.
每一个大学篮球迷至少对迈克·沙舍夫斯基都有着以上某种感受,而且,他们的这种感受已经持续了很长时间。大多数大学篮球迷拥有以上两种感受,很多人体验到了三种:非杜克球迷热爱痛恨沙舍夫斯基,但任何不尊重他对大学篮球做出的贡献的人,都是在愚弄自己。想引起以上所有感受,只有最伟大的教练能做到。
On Sunday, Krzyzewski managed to reach yet another mileston as No. 5 Duke came from behind to beat St. John’s, 77-68, at Madison Square Garden in New York for his 1,000th career win as a head coach. After breaking mentor Bob Knight’s Division I record of 902 wins in the same famous arena in November 2011, Coach K is now the first in Division 1 history to hit 1,000, needing less than four more seasons to hit the benchmark.
周日,沙舍夫斯基又达到了里程碑,5号种子杜克大学在纽约的麦迪逊广场花园反败为胜,以77比68击败了圣约翰大学,这是沙舍夫斯基作为主教练取得的第1000场胜利。201 1年1 1月在同一块著名场地上打破自己导师鲍勃·奈特的一级联盟902胜的纪录后,老K教练成为了大学一级联盟历史上第一个获得1000胜的教练,他用了不到四个赛季就实现了这个里程碑。
“We were getting our butts kicked most of the game," Krzyzewski told Fox after the game. ”I was just trying to survive this game, which is how you get to a thousand.”
“在比赛的大部分时间里我们一直被压制。”沙舍夫斯基赛后对福克斯电视台说,“我只是想挺过这场比赛,这也是拿到1000胜的方法。”
You could call it an arbitrary round number, and you’d be correct. Krzyzewski is the same coach today after win No. 1,000 as he was last Monday night when Duke beat Pittsburgh for No. 999, and he will be the same coach when he wins No. 1,001 this week or next. Whatever side you are on in the Krzyzewski vs. Wooden debate for greatest college basketball coach ever, that shouldn’t have changed based on Sunday. His place in history is secure.
你可以说只看数字太过武断,这种说法也许没错。今天赢得1000胜的沙舍夫斯基和上周一晚上率领杜克击败匹兹堡大学取得第999胜的沙舍夫斯基没有区别,本周或者下周当他取得第1001场胜利时,他还是那个人。在沙舍夫斯基和伍登谁是最伟大大学篮球教练的争论中,无论你支持谁,都不会因为周日这场比赛发生改变。他在历史上已经占据了一席之地。
But there is no reason to be cynical about an arbitrary round number, either. Winning 1,000 is something that no men’s Division I coach has ever done, and 1,000 is a significant way to emphasize the combination of one’s greatness and longevity. It’s just a number, but in this case one little comma further emphasizes everything that Coach K has achieved, because nobody else has it. 不过我们也没有理由对一个数字表现得那么愤世嫉俗。在一级联盟历史上,还没有一个教练取得过1000胜,而1000也是一个重要的标志,象征着一个伟大与长久的结合。那只是一个数字,但在这种情况下,一个小小的逗号只会让我们更加注意K教练已经取得的成就,因为还没有其他人取得这样的成就。
It means an average of about 25 wins per season for 40 years, first at Army, then at Duke. It means that he has won 569 games alone in 20 years since taking a half-season Urban Meyer①-like sabbatical because of back problems and exhaustion.
这意味着在40年里,平均每个赛季要取得25胜,首先是在陆军学院,然后在杜克大学。这意味着老K由于背伤与劳累像厄本·梅耶那样休息了半个赛季后,在20年里赢下了569场比赛。
"The only practical solution is to become mediocre," Mickie Krzyzewski told Sports Illustrated after her husband returned to the Duke bench in 1995."That’s all we need to get rid of these problems. But becoming mediocre is totally unacceptable to Mike.”
“唯一可行的办法就是变得平庸。”当她的丈夫在1995年重回杜克大学教练席后,米基·沙舍夫斯基这样对《体育画报》表示,“想消除这些问题,我们需要做的就是这个。但对于迈克来说,平庸完全不可接受。”
And it still is.
而如今一切仍是这样。
Duke was mediocre in that first year back after his leave, going 18-13 and losing in the first round of the NCAA tournament. Only once since then has Duke lost more than nine games. Only once since then has Duke finished the regular season ranked outside the top 10 of the AP poll. It is possible that nobody will ever again match Krzyzewski’s remarkable run of consistent dominance, with a second act of two national championships and two other Final Four appearances in two decades that followed a first act that also featured two national championships and five other Final Four appearances in nine seasons. That adds up to 1,000 wins, four national titles and 11 total Final Fours, with more still possible.
休假回来后的第一年,杜克的成绩很一般,他们取得了18胜13负,倒在了NCAA全国锦标赛的第一轮。在那之后的这些年,杜克只在一年的负场数超过九场。在那之后,杜克只有一次在常规赛结束后被美联社排到了前十之外。我们有可能以后再也看不到有人能像沙舍夫斯基一样,能如此持久地表现出统治力了。个人执教生涯的第二阶段,在20年时间里,他夺得了两次全国冠军,另两次打进了四强赛。而在个人执教的第一阶段的九年时间里,他同样夺得了两次全国冠军,另有五次打进四强赛。这些,最终造就了他的1000胜、四次全国冠军和1 1次四强赛,未来这些数字还有可能继续增加。
"There is an end in sight," Krzyzewski told reporters after Sunday’s game."I’m going to be 68 next month, and it’ll end sooner than later. But hopefully not real soon.”
“我能看得到重点。”周日比赛结束后沙舍夫斯基对记者表示,“下个月我就要68岁了,这些早晚都会结束。不过希望不会结束得太早。”
There is no telling how long Krzyzewski’s career can stretch on. On one hand, he’s almost 68 years old, 40 years into a demanding, stressful, highprofile career. On the other hand, he’s approaching 70 years of age with a 17-2 team that’s ranked fifth and features Jahlil Okafor, the likely national player of the year and No. 1 pick in the NBA draft. Two more five-star recruits will join the team next year. In other words, there is no indication that the Duke machine will slow down anytime soon, despite Krzyzewski’s age, and despite the evolving nature of college basketball that he’s had to adapt to. 我们不知道沙舍夫斯基的职业生涯会持续多久。一方面说,他快68岁了,在一份高要求、高强度且高调的工作里干了40年。另一方面,快70岁的他掌管着一支17胜2负、排名第五并且有着贾利尔·奥卡福的球队,他很可能成为年度球员,也可能在未来的NBA选秀中成为状元。明年还有两个五星级的新生会加入这支球队。换句话说,尽管有着沙舍夫斯基高龄,尽管他不得不适应大学篮球不断进化的本质,但我们仍看不到杜克这台机器在短期内有任何慢下来的迹象。
Sunday’s game appeared to be lost until the final 10 minutes, when Krzyzewski made another uncommon tweak, a week after a personal rarity in which he played mostly zone against Louisville to mask the Blue Devils’ obvious weakness, which is containing quicker guards on defense. The Red Storm had answers for Duke’s problematic defense most of the game, but Krzyzewski decided to play big down the stretch, packing in his defense with both star 6-foot-11 freshman Okafor and seven-foot reserve Marshall Plumlee playing to prevent the St. John’s guards from driving and protect the rim. According to kenpom.com, none of Duke’s 10 most common lineups feature those two on the court at the same time. But, on Sunday, the tweak allowed Duke to capitalize on its size and depth advantages as it outscored St. John’s 26-7 over the final 8:11.
周日的比赛在最后10分钟前,杜克都呈现出了败势,那时沙舍夫斯基又做出了另一个不常见的调整。一周前,因为球队阵容问题,他在对阵路易斯维尔大学的比赛中用上了区域联防,以掩盖杜克蓝魔明显的劣势,也就是在防守中无法限制速度快的后卫。圣约翰红色风暴在比赛的大部分时间里都在针对杜克问题百出的防守,不过沙舍夫斯基决定在关键时刻起用大个阵容,用明星球员、2.1 1米的大一球员奥卡福和2.13米的替补马绍尔·普拉姆利堆积内线,阻止圣约翰大学的后卫突破,保护篮筐。根据kenpom.com的统计,在杜克10套最常用的阵容中从来没有这两人同时在场的记录。但是在周日,这种改变让杜克发挥了身高和阵容厚度的优势,让他们在最后的8分1 1秒内打了圣约翰一个26比7。
Duke stays at two losses with a tough stretch (at Notre Dame on Wednesday, at Virginia on Saturday) ahead. The pursuit of 1,000 wins is finished, and Duke will continue to be loved by one of the sport’s biggest fan bases and hated by everyone else. Both sentiments are inspired by the respect for how long Krzyzewski has sustained a high level of play, with almost no dips in production. It’s an almost impossible feat, especially in modern sports.
杜克未来的赛程很艰难(周三客场迎战圣母大学,周六客场迎战弗吉尼亚大学),他们目前只输了两场。追求1000胜的旅程已经结束了,杜克仍然会受到体育界最大的球迷团体的热爱,当然,还会被剩下的那些人痛恨。这两种感情,都源自沙舍夫斯基,源自他长期以来所得到的尊重,他的成果质量几乎没有下降过。这是一个几乎不可实现的伟业,特别是在现代体育的环境下。
But after an initial rough start when he inherited a mediocre program in the 1980s, Krzyzewski has managed to overcome the fickle nature of expectations in this sport, keeping himself, his players, his school, the team’s fans and the media simultaneously happy with his output, even after over three decades in one place. It’s hard enough to have success and keep going in one place for 10 years without multiple parties getting sick of each other. It’s nearly impossible to do it long enough to reach 1,000 wins.
在上世纪80年代接手一支平庸的球队,经历最初的艰难开局后,沙舍夫斯基克服了这项运动变化无常的本质,即便在同一个职位干了30年,他仍然让自己、自己的球员、他的学校、球队的球迷以及媒体同时为他取得的结果感到高兴。想在一个地方停留10年、取得成功,还不会和其他人两看相厌,这已经够难的了。时间长到能够取得1000胜,这几乎是不可能完成的任务。
In men’s Division I college basketball, it is no longer impossible. Nobody has ever done it, and it will be hard for many others to do it going forward, although Jim Boeheim (962) is close. But Krzyzewski is the first, and even if others do reach the 1,000-win mark, it is likely that nobody will ever represent longevity better than Coach K. Whatever emotion that inspires in you, it’s an accomplishment worthy of all the celebration.
在大学男子篮球一级联盟中,这已经不再是不可能。过去没有人做到过,未来也很难有太多的人能做到,尽管吉姆·博伊汉姆(962胜)很接近。但沙舍夫斯基是第一个,就算有其他人达到1000胜的里程碑,也无法像K教练那样更好地诠释“长久”这个概念了。无论哪种感情激励着你,这都是一个值得庆祝的成就。
