「我欣賞他內心蘊藏著強烈的鬥心」
- Michael Jordan -
.
.
當年,Michael Jordan招攬CP3加入他旗下球鞋品牌時,他就是如此告訴大家他選擇這小子的原因,當時這對Chris Paul內心更是鼓舞,因為他從小就崇拜Jordan,想學習他追求卓越與勝利的精神。
.
.
「他是個頑強永不肯退卻的傢伙」
「我覺得他對勝利的饑渴度一點都不輸我」
- Kobe Bryant -
.
.
六年前,在北京奧運時期Kobe與Chris Paul做為夢幻隊一員而共同訓練與攜手作戰,在這過程中他發現他們兩人極為相似都是瘋狂的傢伙,眼中都只想追求勝利,完全全心全意投入於籃球中,所以從此刻開始,Kobe就視CP3是一個值得尊敬的對手。
.
.
而從進聯盟,Chris Paul就發下豪語:
"我的目標是有一天"
"我能夠帶領球隊拿下冠軍"
"我會盡全力讓夢想去成真"
.
.
而能有如此自信的原因無疑就是出自於努力不懈,他對此感到自豪,當時黃蜂隊的教練Byron Scott就對於這新人簡直讚不絕口:
"他對比賽的理解力非常驚人"
"他總是願意跟我研究錄影帶"
"你很難不去愛上這樣的球員"
.
.
當他在新人時期時,他擊敗了同樣是新世代備受矚目的控衛Deron Williams與北卡名將Raymond Felton,更是強壓了狀元Andrew Bogut拿下新人王,而當人們開始對這個威克森小子好奇的時候,他則顯得很謙虛:
"威克森的榮耀不會是我"
"而是Tim Duncan"
"我是他的學弟"
"他就像一座大山"
"擋在我們的眼前"
"他為我們豎立榜樣"
"我的目標就要像他一樣取得冠軍成就"
.
.
隨著他的降臨徹底挽救了當時已經跌落谷底的黃蜂隊,自從鋼砲Baron Davis離隊,天才前鋒Jamal Mashburn的墜落,這支球隊簡直就陷入黑暗,但他的出現帶來了曙光,第一年就帶領球隊進步20勝,第三年就幫球隊重返季後賽外還創下隊史最佳戰績,超越90年代,當時由一代神射手Glen Rice所創下的54勝佳績。
.
.
除此之外他還是年度MVP的強力競爭者,僅第三年就嚴重威脅Kobe的MVP地位,即便最後雖敗猶榮沒拿到,但也奠定了他在聯盟新世代控衛頂尖的形象。
.
.
只可惜隨後幾年他因為受傷、球團意見的分歧和恩師Byron Scott被開除開始與高層漸行漸遠,甚至在冠軍之路上越離越遠,因此當時這讓他很沮喪。
.
.
「#我一輩子都想成為一個勝利者」
.
.
從小到大CP3就是個擁有強烈好勝心的孩子,總是將勝利掛在嘴顛做為砥礪自己的話語,告訴自己從不能輕易鬆懈,但黃蜂已經與他想前進的路背道而行,因此他渴求加入一支擁有與他一樣決心衝擊冠軍的球隊。
.
.
「#洛杉磯湖人?」
.
.
就在一個因緣際會之下,湖人精準的出手想從黃蜂那裡得到CP3,而眼看就已經成功準備放行時,無奈因為許多球隊老闆抗議,使得暫時接掌球隊的聯盟最終否定交易,就以一個籃球原因斬斷CP3與Kobe的緣分,當初對於自己原本可望和Kobe一同奮戰卻被聯盟擋下時,他無奈的說道:
"如果我跟Kobe合作"
"那猜我們將會很強"
"他是個殺手"
"我們有相同特質"
"我們都非常好勝"
"也都會全力取勝"
"只可惜沒有成真"
.
.
不過對於自己最後加盟快艇他也感到開心,他表示這樣將能與Kobe競爭,他享受與他對抗的感覺,競爭洛杉磯霸主的地位並渴望奪得總冠軍,這成為他來到快艇想要完成的終極目標。
.
.
「#我要幫快艇奪得冠軍,#這是我來這的理由。」
.
.
他與過往一樣激勵自己而他也同樣發揮當年足以改變球隊體質的影響力,快艇有他之後瞬間從百年爛隊升級成西區勁旅,甚至一步一腳印的逐步壓倒湖人,奪下洛杉磯的領導權。
.
.
然而很遺憾的是,快艇在季後賽總是鍛羽而歸,過去五年年年都是有機會爭冠的實力,但年年都以挫敗收場,甚至連西決都沒闖進去過,這對於瘋狂好勝的CP3來講是情何以堪。
.
.
不過換做一些其他球員可能心志就已經被擊倒,然而CP3就是越挫越勇,去年還打出生涯相當高效的演出,並在BG這超級箭頭還沒恢復下,他一個人承擔進攻與組織的大任,雙管齊下的發揮讓人讚嘆,展現出自己好戰,不肯向劣勢低頭的態度。
.
.
透句Kobe曾在奧運對於他的稱讚:
"當你與他挑戰之後"
"你會發現他就像個橡皮糖"
"怎樣甩都甩不掉"
"他就是這麼好戰"
.
.
能夠被Michael Jordan與Kobe Bryant兩大傳奇同時給予如此高的讚譽,做為一個當代頂尖鬥士,讓支持者感動流涕 ; 讓敵對者恨之牙癢,他就是這樣迷人的狠角色。

.
今年季後賽,32歲的CP3打出他自己職業生涯季後賽最搶眼的進攻表現,整個季後賽平均25.3分,還有5籃板9.9助攻1.7抄截,重點,他失誤僅有2.7次,助攻失誤比直到現在還無人能出其右。
.
在BG不在、J.J. Redick失常、DAJ沒有自主進攻能力,球隊有沒有很強的側翼球員,CP3可說是一個人包辦了他所能做得所有事情,且已經快可說做到了滿分,而這除了他有超強的個人能力與技術外,心態上的強度是最為關鍵的。

"如果當你選擇放棄"
"向世界與外人妥協"
"那將等於扼殺自己"
.
「我很想成為NBA球員,這是我的夢想」
「就像老爸你一樣站在這樣的舞台上」
.
很小,差不多僅有六、七歲大的時候,Dell Curry這位在夏洛特黃蜂已經闖出一番名堂,成為球隊最佳替補射手的他就時常聽到自己兒子訴說著這樣的夢想,然而在當時看來,Dell認為這不過就是童言童語,並沒有太認真。
.
那時他同樣在燃燒自己的夢想,期盼在名滿天下的超級前鋒Larry Johnson以及來自喬治城的熱血漢子Alonzo Mourning聯手帶領下,能夠在夏洛特這新興起的勢力去挑戰總冠軍,圓自己渴望歐布萊恩盃的夢想。
.
當時夏洛特黃蜂教練Allan Bristow就對於球隊裡這位中生代球星有著相當大的評價,即便球隊鋒頭全部都聚焦在Larry Johnson與Alonzo Mourning身上,但是Dell的穩健內斂,尤其對於自己要求的努力和付出,都是球隊不可或缺的好榜樣,Bristow就曾說過:
"我對於黃蜂有自信"
"我們有未來可能是最棒的前鋒"
"同樣有著未來性很高的中鋒"
"且我們還有Dell這樣的射手"
"他不僅是高效的神射手"
"他還是球隊任勞任怨的榜樣"
"球隊最能信任的球員之一"
.
確實,黃蜂當時有著未來足以動搖聯盟的年輕禁區雙人組,雖然個頭都偏矮,但是影響力以及其天賦都令各隊提心吊膽,在那時夏洛特黃蜂真的已經營造出一種新時代勢力的可能性。
.
只是事情並非發展的那麼順利,Larry Johnson正要旭日東昇時遭逢嚴重的背傷,而球隊的團隊氣氛也每況愈下,兩大核心的感情成為球隊不定時的炸彈,縱使Dell時常扮演中間的角色,也難以將兩位大將的心連結在一起。
.
最後Johnson與Mourning陸續離開夏洛特,雖然後來Glen Rice一度又將黃蜂帶領到東區列強的位置,但要爭奪冠軍在東區始終過不了芝加哥公牛這關,轉眼間Dell已經是33歲的老將了。
.
隨後成為自由球員的他沒再被夏洛特黃蜂續約,後來幾年就在密爾瓦基公鹿和多倫多暴龍結束自己的職業生涯,而在2001年,因為Vince Carter,Dell也在生涯晚期第一次季後賽打那麼多場比賽,差一點就要闖進東區冠軍,只是無奈被當時瘋狂的Allen Iverson給擋下。
.
雖然離開夏洛特後Dell已經很老了,但時他的準度與效率並沒有因此下滑,甚至在密爾瓦基公鹿那一年他奪下生涯第一個全聯盟三分命中率最高的頭銜,在暴龍最後三個球季也還維持將近40%的三分準度。
.
看著父親燃燒著激情於每一晚有比賽的時刻,並在賽後埋頭苦幹的做訓練,為的不僅只是希望替球隊帶來穩定貢獻,他同時希望兩個兒子能以這為榜業去建立自己正確的處事態度。
.
而大兒子Stephen Curry相當崇拜這樣子的老爸,縱使不是球隊的巨星,甚至就只是一個替補,他也深深以他父親為榮,也正是因為這份與有榮焉,Curry在許多運動裡唯獨最愛的就是籃球,在很小就開始堅持自己的籃球夢。
.
隨著兒子年紀越大,Dell也開始了解Stephen Curry這孩子不是在開玩笑,他真的想成為一名出色的籃球員,而這對於Dell來講,他很了解基本功的重要性,如果兒子真的想一搏這看似遙不可及的夢想,就得從最基本的態度與精神做起。
.
「我完全是苦練出來的....」
「我沒有特別的天賦異稟」
「跑得沒特別快」
「跳得也沒特別高」
「只能靠技術來彌補」
Dell Curry曾經這麼謙遜的說道,而這番話也是他常常灌輸兒子們的基本觀念,或許我們得接受天賦不如人 ; 但不能將技不如人視為理所當然,只要肯下功夫,鐵杵都能磨成針,這也造就Curry成為一名不斷要努力進取的籃球員。
.
即使從小就長得如瘦皮猴,一點運動員的架勢都沒有,同樣與父親Dell一樣沒有讓人為之一亮的運動天賦,這導致於很多人狗眼看人低質疑他的籃球夢想,這很令他受傷,但更成為激勵他前進的動力:
"很多人只看表面"
"還沒了解你就否定一切"
"這確實是很傷人的事情"
"但是我已經習慣並享受那種激勵感"
.
且Curry想不投入努力也不行,不是只有老爸Dell Curry是職業球員,母親Sonya Curry也是一名著名的排球明星球員,在Dell忙著投入比賽之際,Sonya就是Stephen Curry的另一名嚴格的導師,Dell談到老婆總是會笑著說:
"這是我三生修來的福氣"
"有這麼一個漂亮的老婆"
"她不僅有美貌之外"
"她還替我職業生涯幫助很大"
"她自己有一套嚴格的紀律"
"是能夠影響著別人的"
.
過去監督老公Dell,而現在則是要搞定兩個都有籃球夢的孩子,這也為何,當2015年Stephen Curry奪冠的時候,Sonya非常非常的驕傲,其驕傲的程度肯定不輸給老公Dell。
所以這也告訴我們,成功從基本態度做起!
Curry一家人就是一個絕佳的借鏡。

Allen Iverson's eighth career 40-point game had a nice little unexpected bonus -- a victory for the Philadelphia 76ers.
Iverson scored 41 points, upstaging Shaquille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant, as the 76ers defeated the Los Angeles Lakers, 105-90, for their fourth win in five games.
In two-plus seasons, Iverson had seven previous games with 40 or more points and the 76ers lost them all. On February 12, the NBA scoring leader had a league season-high 46 points in a 98-94 loss to the San Antonio Spurs.
"When I score 40 points, we've lost," Iverson said. "Tonight, we won, and I guess I finally got the monkey off my back. I didn't know what I had until I came out of the game at the end and looked up at the scoreboard. I saw what I had and said, `I hope it doesn't come back to haunt me.'"
Working primarily against Philadelphia native Bryant, Iverson shot 17-of-36 from the field. He scored between nine and 12 points in every period and added a season-high 10 assists and five rebounds.
"I wanted to get off to a good start," Iverson said. "Some earlier shots were going off the rim, then all of a sudden, my shots began to drop. My teammates began to get the ball to me, they did a good job as always of getting me the ball in the right spot, and I was able to make the big shots at the end."
"The little kid was phenomenal," Sixers coach Larry Brown said. "I had to take him out at the beginning just to calm him down because he was really wired. Yeah, he took a lot of shots, but for the most part, his selection was good."
With 55 seconds left, he exited to a thunderous ovation and a chant of "Beat LA" from the First Union Center crowd that recalled the rivalry between these teams from a generation ago.
O'Neal and Bryant scored 23 points each for the Lakers, who fell to 1-3 on their six-game road trip. Los Angeles has lost its last three meetings with Philadelphia, with Iverson averaging 34.3 points. The 76ers had not beaten the Lakers three straight times since the 1981-82 and 1982-83 seasons, when the teams met in consecutive NBA Finals.
"This team has come a long way," Brown said. "I hope we can keep a level head, where they can expect to play well against the good teams, as well as playing well against teams with records worse than theirs."
Lakers forward Dennis Rodman missed his fourth straight game due to an excused absence for personal reasons. With the mercurial Rodman in the lineup, Los Angeles is 9-0. Without him, it is just 8-9.
"We'll welcome him with open arms when he comes back," Lakers coach Kurt Rambis said. "But I have no idea when he's coming back."
"He's obviously a factor," O'Neal said. "He has personal problems, whatever that means, nobody really knows. I don't think about it. I know the organization will do what they have to do."
O'Neal was saddled by foul trouble, eventually fouling out with just four rebounds midway through the final period. He also missed 5-of-12 free throws and committed five turnovers.
Iverson thoroughly outplayed O'Neal and Bryant in the third quarter, when the Sixers took control. After a 3-pointer by Glen Rice -- his first basket of the game -- gave the Lakers a 56-54 lead, Iverson made a jumper and 3-pointer and set up two baskets during a 12-2 burst that gave Philadelphia a 66-58 lead with 5:50 remaining.
Iverson buried a 22-footer to trigger a 6-0 spurt. Tyrone Hill and Aaron Mckie made free throws before Iverson fed Theo Ratliff for a dunk and a 74-62 bulge with 2:02 left in the period.
"For the most part, we did what we wanted to do," Lakers coach Kurt Rambis said. "We forced him (Iverson) to take a lot of outside shots. Unfortunately for us, he made a lot of them."
"Coach Brown noticed that we didn't defend the pick-and-roll very well, so he let Allen run the pick-and-roll and they did a very good job of setting screens and getting him open," Bryant said.
O'Neal and Bryant combined for no baskets in the third quarter as the Lakers shot just 17 percent (3-of-18). Iverson scored 11 in the period, which ended with Philadelphia holding a 76-67 lead.
Iverson had a jumper and 3-pointer early in the fourth quarter before a 3-pointer by Rice and a dunk by Robert Horry pulled Los Angeles within 83-77 with 9:44 to go. Iverson made a pair of free throws and a technical foul shot on O'Neal. Matt Geiger hit a jumper and two free throws off O'Neal's fifth foul as the Sixers rebuilt the lead to 90-77 with 6:33 left.

「柯瑞有辦法超越雷阿倫嗎?」、「柏德巔峰時期有比柯瑞強嗎?」「湯普森還是科佛的穩定性更足?」等等的問題,有些有如張飛戰岳飛,永遠都不可能有解答,而現在的我們可以透過遊戲來比較一下歷史最強三分神射手們,如果分為東西區的話,哪一隊會更強呢?

glen rice 在 pennyccw Youtube 的評價
The New York Knicks got their first look at Dikembe Mutombo in a Philadelphia 76ers uniform. In the end, they saw enough of Allen Iverson.
Without center Marcus Camby to provide his shot-blocking prowess, the Knicks had no second line of defense for Philadelphia's electrifying guard and suffered an 89-82 loss to the 76ers.
The absence of Camby became pronounced in the final minutes after Latrell Sprewell scored eight straight points to pull the Knicks within 79-77.
But Iverson would not let his team fall apart. He hit a 19-foot jumper over Sprewell from the left sideline with 2:57 left.
On New York's next two possessions, the intimidation factor of the 7-foot-2 Mutombo caused Kurt Thomas to go too strong off the backboard on a running layup and Sprewell had a layup attempt partially blocked by George Lynch.
"They did a good job of coming on the weak side to help on the one drive that I had," Sprewell said. "Lynch got a piece of it. And the one Kurt (Thomas) had, Dikembe's presence was felt on that play. Those were two baskets we could have used down the stretch."
Philadelphia's Aaron McKie drove to the basket and converted a layup over Thomas to increase the lead to 83-77 with 2:03 remaining.
Allan Houston, who returned to the lineup after missing three games with a thigh bruise, hit a jumper while he was fouled by Eric Snow and made the free throw to complete the three-point play, pulling the Knicks within 83-80 with 1:41 left.
After a Philadelphia turnover, the Knicks had a chance to tie it but a 3-point attempt by Sprewell rimmed out.
Iverson then isolated on Sprewell at the top of the key, blew right by him and hit a floater in the lane over Glen Rice -- a far cry from a shot-blocking presence like Camby -- with 49 seconds remaining.
"The little kid (Iverson) made two big shots and when they got it within two we made defensive stops," said Sixers coach Larry Brown.
"We played hard enough to win, we just didn't play well enough to win," said Knicks coach Jeff Van Gundy. "When the game got tight, Iverson made shots."
Snow and Kevin Ollie each hit a pair of free throws in the final 26 seconds for Philadelphia (55-25), which has already clinched homecourt advantage throughout the Eastern Conference playoffs.
"The guys understand that if I'm going well, I'm going to have the ball in my hand," Iverson said. "If any team doubles me or tries to take something away from me, my teammates are going to make shots. If we do that, we'll be alright going into the playoffs."
The San Antonio Spurs have earned homecourt advantage throughout the playoffs, but the Sixers are still competing with teams like Sacramento (54-25) and the Los Angeles Lakers (54-26) for the homecourt in a possible NBA Finals matchup.
The Knicks squandered an opportunity to tie Miami for the seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs. The Heat, which lost at home to Orlando, 90-73 on Sunday, lead the Knicks by one game with two games left in the regular season.
If the Knicks go into the playoffs as the fourth seed, they would play the Sixers in the second round if both teams advance.
"If we play with that type of effort and energy, it doesn't matter who we play," Sprewell said. "If we do the right things on the floor, it's about us and not who we're playing."
Iverson finished with 27 points. Mutombo was the major reason why the Sixers outrebounded the Knicks, 49-33, grabbing 16 boards.
"I am encouraged when we win with defense and rebounding," Brown said. "That is the only way this team is going to survive."
Camby, New York's 6-11 center, suffered a hip contusion in New York's loss at Indiana last Wednesday and is expected to be sidelined for a week.
Sprewell scored 12 of his 26 points in the fourth quarter for New York.
Houston had 15 points, but missed 11-of-16 shots. Rice was just 4-of-11 from the field.
"We had a lot of wide-open shots, but the ball wasn't going in," Rice said. "You're going to have games like that."
The Knicks raced to a 16-6 lead as the Sixers missed 11 of their first 12 shots.
But Iverson hit a pair of jumpers and two layups and McKie added five points as the Sixers responded with a 13-4 run to pull within 20-19. Rice ended the quarter with a layup for New York
