其實這兩句話只是截錄，原本是和尼克賽後 ESPN的記者問他
有什麼可以對年輕球員說的忠告。(asked about advice he would give to young
basketball players)
然後老詹難得說了很長的一篇話，全文如下 :
"Learn the history of the game. Respect the ones that came before you. Even
when they do disrespect you, it's okay. It's absolutely okay. Know who paved
the way. Understand what a professional is all about. Be a pro. Show up to
work, be ready to work, if you're on time, you're late. Put the work in. The
game gives back to you when you put the work in; that's what the game g-ds
do. Come to the gym. One of the first ones to the gym. You're one of the last
ones to leave...
學習籃球的歷史，尊重你的前輩。即使對方不尊重你，也沒關係，這完全沒關係，
要知道是誰替我們舖好前路。要瞭解何為專業，作為一個專業運動員，全力以赴﹑
隨時準備好﹑如果你準時到達﹑其實已經等於遲到..努力練習﹑你花在練習中的汗水
終會在比賽場上給予你回報。去健身房當第一個扺達的人﹑然後當其中一個最遲走的。
Just pour it all into the game if you want to be great and if you want to be
someone that will never be forgotten in this league. The cars and the jewelry
and all of the dumb s**t that don't matter means absolutely nothing. I see a
lot of these young kids getting so unfocused about stuff that is so material
that they can lose their focus.
如果你想成為一個出色的球員﹑想成為在聯盟中不會讓人輕易淡忘的存在，你必須全心全意的付出
那些名車﹑珠寶還有種種身外之物都是無關重要的。我看過太多年輕人沉醉在物質之中然後
失去他們原本的焦點。
Just worry about the game; when you worry about the game, everything takes
care of itself. Worry about the game, worry about your family and then worry
about the game some more. And be selfish, too. It's okay to be selfish
because you have to be a little bit selfish to be able to be great. Some
people have to fall to the wayside at times."
要關心的只有球賽; 當你集中關心球賽時，其他的瑣事自會水到渠成。關注你的比賽﹑
關注你的家人﹑然後再更加更加的關注比賽。而且還要自我中心一些，有時候自我中心
也沒關係。因為要成就偉大，是需要自私一點的。有時候有些人是要被放棄的。

老詹這個人的言行雖然有很大爭議性﹑但作為一個運動員他的自律是可以載入史冊那種
聯盟中太多有出色天賦的年輕人迷失於紙醉金迷之中。像老詹這種年少得志﹑18歲已經
被四周吹捧的人沒有被名利沖昏頭腦，二十年如一日的想提升自己﹑殊為不易。
看到他對後輩說出的這番勸勉，步入球員生涯末期的他，對年輕後輩說的這番話應該也是
肺腑之言吧，突然間腦海裡跳出了這一句 :
風流總被風吹雨打去。
