CJ McCollum參加三分球大賽的原因是女朋友不能陪他出去度假

Portland Trail Blazers guard C.J. McCollum can't go on vacation, so he found a
back-up plan: participating in the 3-point shootout at All-Star Weekend.

CJ McCollum發現休假計畫泡湯了,但他找到了備案 : 參加三分球大賽


"I wanted to go on vacation," McCollum said Saturday. "If I'm not going to play
in the game, I would rather be on vacation. But I can't be on vacation since my
girl's got a test. So I figured I could go for 48 hours and get out there and
still get some rest and relaxation."

「其實我比較想去度假」McCollum說
「如果沒有比賽的話我比較想好好休息,但因為我女朋友那天要考試所以去不成了
但後來我發現我能撥出48小時參加比賽,且依舊能獲得充分的休息時間」


McCollum participated in the All-Star Saturday night competition last year but
was eliminated in the first round. He said he wasn't sure he was going to make
a return appearance this year until his vacation plans were scuttled.

McCollum去年也有參加三分球大賽,但首輪即遭到淘汰
他一開始並未同意加入今年的比賽,直到發現假期泡湯


"I will [compete],'' McCollum said. "At first, I was against it. I didn't
really want to go, but seeing as how I performed last year and my girl can't go
on vacation because she has a test on Monday, it kind of changed my view on
it.''

「我會認真比」McCollum說
「其實我一開始不是很想去,但我女朋友那周的星期一要考試,所以我改變想法了」


McCollum, who is tied for 14th in the league in 3-point shooting percentage
(.415), said his first-round exit in last year's contest was partially due to
his being a late replacement for Chris Bosh.

McCollum三分球命中率以41.5%排行聯盟第14名,他說去年第一輪就被刷掉有部分是因為他
後來才接獲聯盟通知補上Chris Bosh的缺


"I'll take it seriously this year,'' he said. "Last year, I was a throw-in.
They called me the night before, so I tried to get to a gym and did a round
[using] the [ball] racks. This year I will prepare more and give it a shot."

「我今年會認真練習」他說「去年他們前一天晚上才通知我,所以我只在球館練習過一輪
就去比了,今年我會做好完全準備去挑戰」
