里程碑!波波老爺子執教勝場數升至歷史第四!!
Gregg Popovich became head coach of the Spurs all the way back in 1996. He went 17-47 in his first season as coach. Since then, the Spurs have never had a record below .500. It just speaks to how astonishing of a leader Popovich is.
追溯到1996年，格雷格·波波維奇便一直擔任馬刺隊主教練一職。在以教練身份開始的第一個賽季裏（此前是馬刺隊總經理），球隊只打出了17勝47負的戰績。但從那以後馬刺的賽季勝率都沒有低於50%。亮眼的數據也佐證了波波維奇是一位有才華的教練。Popovich has won five NBA championships with San Antonio. He's been named Coach of the Year three times and is widely regarded as the best NBA coach of the last decade or so. The Spurs have never won back-to-back championships, but people still consider them a dynasty for their sustainable success, and it's all because of Popovich and his ability to plug in players into his system and flourish with them.
波波維奇帶領聖安東尼奧馬刺隊五度奪得NBA總冠軍，三獲得NBA年度最佳教練獎，被廣泛譽爲近十年來NBA最佳教練。馬刺隊從未連續獲得背靠背的總冠軍，但球迷始終相信馬刺王朝將再創佳績。球迷的信心來源於波波維奇，他也有能力將球員的天賦融入他的籃球體系，並且加以挖掘培養。
This season is the first year in a very long time that Gregg Popovich doesn't have Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, or Manu Ginobili on the roster. Duncan and Ginobili are both retired, while Parker signed a free agent deal with the Charlotte Hornets in July. The Spurs are 14-14 on the season.
本賽季，球隊名單裏沒有蒂姆·鄧肯，託尼·帕克，馬努·吉諾比利，這也是波波維奇的“第一次”。鄧肯和吉諾比利雙雙退休，另一方帕克在七月份以自由人的身份與夏洛特黃蜂隊簽訂了合同。目前本賽季馬刺隊賽績爲14勝14負。
When it's all said and done, Gregg Popovich will go down as a top-five coach of all-time. The way he's been able to connect with a variety of players and win games at the highest level is truly special.
一切塵埃落定，格雷格·波波維奇將被評爲歷史上位列前五的教練。他能夠與不同球員打交道以及在最高水平賽事上取得勝利的方式真的很特別。更多精彩內容請關注微信公衆號、新浪微博：籃球英文堂
