大學隊友&教練分享Lillard"節儉"的軼事 - NBA

Weber State staff, ex-players share stories about Damian Lillard being a
cheapskate
by Mike Cruz, May 4, 2019


Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard is now a superstar making
millions of money – nearly $28 million a year.

拓荒者後衛Damian Lillard如今已經是個賺進數百萬美金的超級明星了，
他年薪將近2800萬。

Lillard signed a 5-year $140 million with the Blazers in 2016, and will go
through the 2020-21 season, with still around $61 million left in this
current deal.

2016年，Lillard與拓荒者簽下5年一億四千萬的合約，這份合約將持續到2020-21，
目前這份合約還剩下2年6100萬。

However, despite his current million-dollar stature, it seems like the 4-time
All-Star was very tight with his money back when he was playing Weber State.
In an interview with Jason Jenks of The Athletic, some of Lillard’s
teammates and coaches in college shared anecdotes of the All-NBA guard being
a cheapskate.

然而，儘管曾進過四次全明星賽Lillard現在身價不同凡響，
但當他還在母校韋伯州大打球時，似乎非常地"節儉"。

在接受《The Athletic》採訪時，
韋伯州大的一些前隊友和教練分享了Lillard在大學時代的軼事。

Phil Beckner, assistant coach: He was so damn tight with his money. He was
the biggest tightwad ever.

助理教練Phil Beckner：「他對錢實在是抓得太緊了，他是有史以來最吝嗇的小氣鬼。」

First is Lillard’s utter refusal to have his car’s broken window fixed.

首先是，Lillard的車窗破了也不去修。

Beckner: He had a broken window in his car and he wouldn’t get it fixed. He
couldn’t get the ice off his car one day so he had to put his head out the
window to drive to class.

助理教練Phil Beckner：

「他的車窗戶破了，硬是不修。有一天擋風玻璃上的冰層無法清掉，
他就將頭探出那個破掉的車窗外開車去上課。」

The teammates also shared about how Lillard would always eat at Burger King
and either order from their dollar menu or use coupons for discounts.

其他隊友也分享了Lillard在漢堡王吃飯，以及使用優惠券的事。

Kyle Bullinger, forward: Every single day Damian Lillard ate Burger King for
lunch. Every. Single. Day.

前隊友Kyle Bullinger：「每天Lillard都吃漢堡王當午餐，每、一、天！」

Josh Noble, guard: He always ordered off the dollar menu and always used
coupons. If he found a coupon somewhere, he would use it. He wasn’t paying
full price for nothing.

前隊友Josh Noble：

「他永遠都點打折的套餐，而且老是使用優惠券。
如果他找到一張優惠券，他一定要用掉，非打折他不買單。」

Fulton: He would eat the meals the coaches would give us in the locker room,
like PB&J sandwiches. On the road trips, he’d freaking fill his bag with as
many Powerades and Gatorades as he could.

前隊友Fulton：

「他會吃教練在休息室發給我們的餐點，像是花生醬三明治什麼的。去客場比賽時，
他會盡可能地將他的包包全部塞滿Powerades以及Gatorades(開特力)飲料。」

Finally, which could be the most ridiculous of all, Lillard actually
free-rode on his teammate’s Netflix account for three years. The 28-year old
star even had the audacity to ask his teammate where the Netlix went after he
reportedly failed to pay his credit card.

最後，最好笑的是，Lillard免費用了三年隊友的Netflix帳密，
甚至還向隊友詢問為何Netflix帳戶的扣款會失敗。

Fulton: Oh my God, man. This guy. His last year at Weber he moved in with us.
There were four of us in this house. Dame asked me for my Netflix password so
I gave it to him. Then after he got Rookie of the Year, I went on my Netflix
one day, and this dude had himself his own account on my account, with his
own little display box on there. I’m like, “Hold up.”

前隊友Fulton：

「我的天阿，這個人真是......他在大學最後一年，和我們共四個住一起，
Lillard向我要了Netflix的密碼，我給了他。

在他得到NBA最佳新秀後，有一天我上去Netflix，發現這個人居然還在我的帳戶上，
他還在用我的帳密。」

Kirk: About a week or two after he got drafted, he sent me a text asking me
for my Netflix login.

前隊友Kirk：「在選秀過後一兩個禮拜後，他傳簡訊給我，問我Netflix的帳號是多少。」

Fulton: And then one day, I forgot to update my credit card info with
Netflix. We’re on a road trip, and Dame texted me, “Hey, what happened with
Netflix? Why isn’t it working?” There were at least two or three years
where I was paying for his Netflix.

前隊友Fulton：

「有一次，我忘了更新我的Netflix信用卡，那時我正在旅行途中，
Lillard傳簡訊給我說『嘿，Netflix怎麼了，為啥不能看了？』
大約有兩到三年的時間吧，我都在幫他看的Netflix付錢。」
