Thanks for inviting!
We all hate to go through adversity, but often a lot of good comes from it, and for me, I've learned a lot about myself in the last year. I've learned that I've got a lot of fight in me, a lot of perseverance to keep going. My passion for this game has been refueled. When you can't play, you just want to be around the game, and in the gym, and watching film, and doing those types of things.
I can say proudly that I haven't missed a single day of rehab since I got hurt. From the little things back when the injury first occurred, through the setback with having a second surgery to have my hardware removed this spring, right down to every three-on-three and five-on-five, I've shown up and put in the work to get back to this point. I'm extremely proud of that.
It has been a lot of work. There is no denying that. But, looking back it has all been worth it to be where I am right now, in Boston, with my teammates, with the consecutive road games just days away.
As I reflect on this time—nearly a year now—that I've spent trying to get back, I'd be remiss if I didn't send a shout out to everyone who helped me along the way.
When somebody goes down, it's like a next-man-up mentality, and as a player, a lot of times you are focused on the season. But for the guys to still stop in and say, “What's up?” or send me a text, to think about me and give me some support while I was down, was really great of them.
I'm so excited for every game coming up in this season, for myself, and for us as a team. More than anything, I'm excited to help us raise another banner. That is the reason why I came to Boston. I felt like this was where I could help win a championship.
谢谢你们邀请我回答这个问题,也感谢 @聚星动力 的翻译。
我们都讨厌逆境,但其实福与祸往往同行。过去的一年中我学到了很多很多,学会了内心充满斗志,也学会了永不言弃。我的心里对比赛的热情被重新点燃。当你没法比赛的时候,你唯一想做的就是能离它近一些:去健身房,看比赛录像,做一切与比赛有关的事。
我可以骄傲地说,受伤后的每一天我都在努力恢复。从伤病刚刚发生时的小事做起,到今年春天接受伤病后的第二次手术,我已经不再需要护具的帮助,之后的3V3、5V5对抗也同样如此。为了回到这种状态,我投入了非常多,也非常自豪自己所做的种种付出。
不得不说从伤病中恢复需要付出很多努力,不过看看我现在的状态:在波士顿这支球队,仅仅几天前还与我的队友们一起辗转连续的客场比赛。所以回首这一切时,我觉得努力是值得的。
回顾过去将近一年从低谷中走出来的时间,我必须要感谢这一路上帮助过我的每个人。
一个人陷入低谷时,往往在情感上需要他人的帮助。作为一名运动员,你的时间重心几乎都在比赛中。所以当球场上的伙伴在我受伤后都停下比赛过来问候我,或者在我低落时发信息关心、鼓励我的时候,我觉得他们真的太棒了。
我对这个赛季接下来每一场比赛都非常期待,期待我的表现,也期待我们整个团队有好的发挥。更重要的是,期待我们能为波士顿升起又一面冠军旗帜。这就是我成为一名“绿军”的原因,在我看来波士顿就是那个可以赢得冠军的地方!
