嘿，他比肯德里克·帕金斯 (Kendrick Perkins) 曾经念得可要准多了
到今年夏天为止，我已经在教育领域工作了十七年。在我工作过的每个地方，学生名单上都充满了来自不同国家的孩子，他们的一些名字读起来并非顺理成章。我努力以尊重的方式念出学生的名字，并且从不羞于询问：“我念对了吗？”
这正是为什么基根-迈克尔·凯 (Keegan-Michael Key) 扮演的代课老师角色，是我一直以来最喜欢的喜剧小品之一。他不仅 没有 努力去正确地念出一个名字，反而带着一丝敌意的沉着，坚守着自己的读法。
加维先生可不跟你开玩笑。而那个原版小品至今仍让我捧腹大笑。
这个角色如此出名，以至于基根-迈克尔·凯经常被拦下，并被要求以他这位著名的代课老师的身份，念出运动员的名字。
我最近看到了一个片段，其中凯被要求念一些NBA球员的名字。其中一位就是圣安东尼奥马刺队的维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama)。
如果你在维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 的新秀赛季（说的就是你，雷吉·米勒 (Reggie Miller)），念他的名字“文班亚马”还不够困难的话，那么看完这个片段，你可能需要重新训练你的大脑了。
如果基根-迈克尔·凯担任马刺队的临时教练，他恐怕会度过一段相当艰难的时光。把文班亚马加入到这份名单中，这份名单包括：埃马努埃尔* 吉诺比利（注意他在选秀之夜名字的拼写错误）、法布里西奥·奥贝托 (Fabricio Oberto)、蒂亚戈·斯普利特 (Tiago Splitter)、贝诺·乌德里 (Beno Udrih)、博班·马里亚诺维奇 (Boban Marjanovic) 和桑德罗·马穆克拉什维利 (Sandro Mamukelashvili)，那么突然之间，蒂姆·邓肯 (Tim Duncan) 的名字可能就成了名单上最容易发音的了。
*我每次都抓住机会发布蒂姆·邓肯 (Tim Duncan) 在选秀之夜，按照他听到的方式念马努名字的片段，那是一位平日里沉默寡言的超级巨星身上，最纯粹的喜剧瞬间。

Open Thread: Keegan-Michael Key summons his Mr. Garvey persona to attempt Victor Wembanyama’s name
Hey, he gets closer than Kendrick Perkins ever did
As of this summer, I have completed seventeen years in education. In every location I have worked, the student rosters have been filled with children of multiple nationalities and some name which do not naturally flow right off the tongue. I strive to say students the names with integrity, and I am not afraid to ask “did I say that correctly?”
That is what makes Keegan-Michael Key’s substitute teacher one of my all-time favorite sketch comedy pieces. Not only does he not make a valiant attempt to say a name correctly, but stands by his version with hostile aplomb.
Mr. Garvey doesn’t play. And the original sketch still makes me laugh out loud.
The character is so renowned that Mr. Key has often been stopped and asked to read names of athletes as his famed substitute.
I just saw this piece in which Key was asked to read some NBA players names. One of those is San Antonio Spur Victor Wembanyama.
If you didn’t have a hard enough time saying “Wembanyama” during his first season (I’m talking to you Reggie Miller), you may have to retrain your brain after watching this moment.
Key would have a heck of a time as a Spurs interim coach. Add Wembanyama to a list including Emanuel* Ginobili (notice the misspelling of his name on draft night), Fabricio Oberto, Tiago Splitter, Beno Udrih, Boban Marjanovic, and Sandro Mamukelashvili, and all of a sudden Tee-MOH-thee Done-CAN might be the easiest get on the roster.
*I utilize every opportunity to post Tim Duncan saying Manu’s name exactly how he heard it on draft night, it is the purest moment of comedy from an otherwise quiet superstar.
