老美看美国：林书豪----从无名到闻名
文/罗杰 翻译/丹奇
如果你追看美国职业篮球赛，你一定已经听到这个关于林书豪的精彩故事。如果你不看篮球赛，我肯定你可能也听说过他了。
这是一个多么精彩的故事！一个从一所大学（哈佛）-一个闻名于培养美国总统，高级法院大法官以及科技亿万富翁的而不是篮球明星的大学毕业的年轻人，现在是职业篮球里最炙手可热的名字。
这是一种能感动我们所有人的故事。就像洛基是真的一样。为啥他的故事如此牵动大家？
显然林是一个聪明人—毕业于哈佛大学。然而，许多人都从哈佛毕业。但是，并没有多少哈佛毕业生在NBA打球（林加入NBA前篮球历史上只有其他3个球员是哈佛毕业的）。但是这个故事比那更大，比哈佛还大。这个故事感动了我们是因为他是这么一个年轻人：有着许多篮球天赋却没有人听说过，一个月前还在D联盟为一点点钱打球（D是发展的意思）。他在过去两个月里被 另外两个球队裁掉。看上去他似乎只有用他的哈佛学历去找份工作了。
但是，林书豪不想那么做。他知道他能打NBA。他放弃掉一个个到手的工作，坚持追逐着自己的梦，睡在他的兄弟的沙发上，连个安身立命之所都没有。他所需要的就是一个证明自己的机会。
他最终在纽约找到了他的机会。纽约就是娱乐和名声的最大舞台。他没有让任何人失望。他的天赋，他的欢乐和比赛天才是这场比赛和联盟中一道清新的空气。这是一场由于雇主和球员之间的劳务纠纷而推迟了的比赛。这对已经厌倦了当前的球星比如科比和李布朗的群众也是一道新鲜空气。林为赛事带来了一个新面孔，而且带来一个独特的故事，一个美国故事！
按照许多美国人的成功故事传统，林书豪可谓名不见经传。但是他的勤奋和对球赛的热爱让他能够集中精力攀登高峰，当给他机会的时候，他抓住了并一口气跑到了山巅。他的低调的个性和当聚光灯打到他的身上时的优雅，使他成为一个美国英雄并受人喜爱。
来自台湾的移民之子林书豪已经抓住了人们对于这个一直挣扎在过去5年里的国家里的人们渴望一点亮光的那份想象力。一个城市，纽约，由于他出色的球技已经重现活力—最令人瞩目的就是2月10日星期五当他获得38分，几乎是单手率领球队冲向了四连胜，直取比他们收入高许多的洛杉矶湖人队以及常年的全明星科比布莱恩特。比赛前当人们问科比对林打球水平如何做评价时，他说“谁？”。比赛结束后的晚上，科比再次被问及他对林打球水平的看法时，他说“现在所有人都知道他了！”科比继续称赞林是个天才，“他显然是个天才，终于有人注意到他了！”
虽然大多数（如果不是所有的）中国人看到他们自己人为达到胜利的顶峰欢天喜地时—姚明已经退休—整个美国的篮球迷们现在都陷入了“林来疯”作为一个篮球迷，我对NBA 天空升起的这颗新星激动不已。这是一个很好的变化，再不是只有科比和李布朗。从所有的现象来看，这事不会发生在比他更优雅，美好的人身上。
祝贺你，林书豪，你是明星！

JEREMY LIN
FROM UNKNOWN TO KNOWN TO ALL
By Roger Dean
If you follow professional basketball in the USA you’ve certainly heard the great story about Jeremy Lin. If you don’t follow basketball I’m sure you probably still heard of him.
What a great story. A young man from a college ( Harvard ) - that’s known more for producing U.S. Presidents, Supreme Court Justices and technology billionaires than basketball stars – is now the hottest name in professional basketball.
It’s the kind of story that touches all of us. It’s like Rocky for real. Why does his story grab our attention?
Obviously Lin’s a smart guy – graduating from Harvard. But, there are lots of guys that graduate from Harvard. But, there’s not a lot of guys from Harvard that ever played in the National Basketball League ( only 3 other players in the history of basketball before Lin ever played in the NBA ). But this story is even bigger than that, bigger than Harvard. This story touches us because he’s a young guy with lots of basketball talent that no one had heard of, was playing for very little money in the D-League ( D is for development ) just a month ago. He was cut from 2 other teams in the past 2 months ! It looked like he would just have to use that Harvard degree and get a job.
But, Lin didn’t want to do that. He knew he could play in the NBA. While passing up job offers he kept after his dream, sleeping on his brothers couch and not even having a place of his own to live. All he needed was the chance to prove himself.
He finally got his chance in New York. The biggest stage in entertainment and fame ! He didn’t disappoint anyone. His natural talent, his joy and flair for the game was a breath of fresh air to a game and league that started the season late because of labor troubles between owners and players. It was a breath of fresh for a crowd that had become bored of the current stars playing – like Kobe or LeBron. Lin brought a new face to the game and a story that is uniquely an American one.
In keeping with the tradition of many American success stories Jeremy Lin was an underdog but his diligence and love of the game focused him to the top of his game and when presented with the opportunity he seized it and ran to the top of the charts. His low key personality and graciousness with the spotlight on him makes him even more endearing as an American hero.
The son of immigrants from Taiwan Jeremy Lin has captured the imagination of a people hungry for a bright spot in a country that has struggled the past 5 years. A city, New York, has been rejuvenated by his stellar playing and skills – most notably on Friday February 10th when he scored 38 points and nearly single handedly led them to their 4th straight victory over the highly paid Los Angeles Lakers and perennial All Star Kobe Bryant.
The night before the game Kobe Bryant was asked what he thought of Lin’s play and he said “ who?”. After the game the following night Kobe Bryant was again asked what he thought of Lin’s play and he said “ everybody knows who he is now”! Bryant continued to praise Lin’s talent and said “ he obviously is talented and someone finally noticed”.
While most if not all Chinese rejoice in seeing their own reach the pinnacle of success now that Yao Ming has retired – an entire nation of Americans who are basketball fans are all caught up in “LINSANITY”.
As a basketball fan myself I am thrilled of a new star rising in the sky of the NBA. It’s nice change from hearing only about Kobe and LeBron, and from all the looks of it – it couldn’t have happened to a more nicer and gracious guy.
Congratulations Jeremy Lin. You’re a star!
