Traffic is obviously not aplus, distances are big, just a lot of cars. The first few days it gotme a little frustrated, but looking at the big picture it is justsomething you have to deal with.

They criticize a little somenights, they know what I'm capable of. [They might say,] 'You didn'thave your best game,' 'Today was flat on rebounds' or 'Why didn't youshoot more or pass the ball more?' Stuff like that. More of a familything not a technical thing. I have enough talent to know that.
有些时候，他们会批评我，他们知道我的能力所在。（他们可能会说，）‘你没有打出你最好的比赛，’‘今天篮板太少了’或者‘为什么你不试着多投篮或者多传球？’诸如此类。家庭的力量不是技术性的东西，这我很明白。

Q: If you weren't a basketball player, what would you want to do?
Q：假如你不是一个篮球运动员，那么你会想做什么？
A: I did one year of medical school, so I was kind of going forthe doctor thing. My mom is a doctor and my dad a nurse. Kind of runsin the family. I've always been very identified with medicine andscience. It goes back 15 years. If you asked me what I wanted tobecome, I would have said a scientist. What kind of scientist? I wantedto investigate and find remedies for all the big illnesses that affectus. So that's what I wanted to do, so that's why I ended up choosingmedicine to study at the time. But I couldn't keep up with it. I had tochose between b-ball and medicine. I chose basketball. It ended upworking out pretty well.
A：我读过一年医科，所以我可能会去做类似于医生那样的事。我妈妈是一个医生，我爸爸是一个护士。这也是家庭的某种趋势。一直以来，我都很喜欢医药和科学。这持续了15年。如果之前你问我，我想做什么，那么我会回答我想成为一名科学家。什么样的科学家呢？我想去做一些研究，去寻找可以克服所有危害我们的疾病的治疗方法。所以，这就是我想做的。但是当时我为什么放弃了继续研读医学呢？因为我跟不上。在篮球和医学之间，我继续选一样。我选择了篮球。当然也以很美好的结果收尾。
