原文：
"Those are the plays that decide games," Van Gundy said. "The block on the out-of-bounds play, just generally making an impact even when you don't have the ball to shoot it. The great players play both ends. The great players play their best when their best is needed. That's what separates, along with consistency. And those two plays were great plays."

翻译：

那（终场前的一板一盖）决定了比赛的胜负，即使你不投篮，把球盖出底线还是可以改变（比赛的结果）。伟大的运动员在攻防两端都表现出色。伟大的运动员总是在球队最需要的时候表现出自己的最佳水平，这，连同稳定的发挥，是区分伟大与平庸的标尺。（姚明最后）这两个表演就是伟大。

老范这么当众表扬姚明，说实话我还是第一次看到。

他已经不止一次在全国媒体面前，含蓄地暗示姚明没有达到他的期望。更没有这么露骨地表扬。好像姚明最近这6，7场比赛，场场在第四节表现出色，已经彻底赢得了老范的信任。这是绝对的好事啊！
