这位马刺队超级巨星的特质异于其他NBA领袖
感谢storytellerdude50昨天分享了 这个故事 。
几天前，篮球网站“篮球网络”（Basketball Network）的阿德尔·艾哈迈德 (Adel Ahmad) 回顾了蒂姆·邓肯 (Tim Duncan) 在2003年夺冠后，如何反驳“戒指文化”的言论，他当时说道：
“人们说，‘你已经夺冠一次了，已经赢了两次了，还有什么好追求的呢？’这简直是我听过最愚蠢的问题。一次又一次地做到——没有什么能比这更好。每次没能夺冠，都更让人失望。”
邓肯的目标是每年都夺冠，而当马刺队未能做到时，邓肯总是不满足。这与那些为自己为何没能夺冠找借口的球员有着截然不同的心态。从辅助阵容到伤病，任何因素都可能阻碍一次争冠之路，但邓肯却勇于承担未能实现终极目标的全部责任。作为一名超级巨星，他肩负着重任。他所展现出的领导力，远比想象中罕见。
但正如艾哈迈德 (Adel Ahmad) 在文章中指出的那样，邓肯 (Tim Duncan) 拥有一种不随公众对其目标预期的心态。邓肯的动力完全源于内心，且目标明确。
这篇报道绝对值得一读，也欢迎您在下方评论区分享您的想法。

Open Thread: Tim Duncan’s 2003 take on “ring culture”
The Spurs superstar was built differently than other NBA leaders
Thanks to storytellerdude50 for sharing this story yesterday.
A couple of days ago, Basketball Network’s Adel Ahmad recounted when Tim Duncan pushed back against “ring culture” after the 2003 championship stating,
“People say, ‘You’ve done this once, you’ve won twice, what else do you have left to do?’ That’s the stupidest question I ever heard. To do it over and over again — you can’t beat that. Every time that you don’t win it, it’s more disappointing.”
Duncan’s goal was to win every year, and when the Spurs didn’t, Duncan wasn’t satisfied. It’s a different mindset that has been shared by players who make excuses for why they don’t win. Anything from supporting cast to injuries can hinder a title run, but bearing the brunt of coming up shy of the ultimate goal was something Duncan owned. As a superstar, his shoulders had to carry a lot. He displayed a level of leadership not as common as it might seem.
But as Ahmad points out with this piece is that Duncan had a mentality that didn’t adhere to public perception of what his goals should be. Duncan’s drive was fully interior and intentional.
Definitely a piece worth reading and sharing your thoughts in the comments below.
