一篇小感想引发口水战，实在是对不起了，嘿嘿。

先声明一下：从头到尾我有没有说过要命不“tough"? 注意我的原话是：”同样是一个超级巨星带领一帮Average的家伙打球，那个叫KB24的更tough“。。我并没有否认要命"tough"对不对。有人说要命第四节压哨球就是”tough"的表现，当然如此，我双手赞成。好了有了这点共识我们再来谈

注意tough在体育竞赛中不光指身体的东西，更多的是指的是精神上的东西，如我们常见的词有“metal toughness"。举个例子，当小牛的球员被问道谁是队中”toughest"的球员是，大家的一致回答是“Jerry stackhouse" Stackhouse is not the strongest guy in mavs, why is he the toughest one?　因为他打球的胆气和方式。如果把tough用在球星或球队头上，这应该指the ability to play well under pressure.

昨天的胡人是KB的一人球队，昨天的火箭是要命的一人球队。大家作为球队的灵魂人物，很明显，KB在OTs做得要比要命好。胡人从落后２１分到追平到OT到取胜，KB has shown us his leadership, his big time play, and why he is one of the toughest player in the league.而要明作为火箭的灵魂人物，在关键时刻没有顶住胡人的反攻，难道不是要命需要提高的地方吗？这就是：toughness－作为核心在关键时候自身的抗压力和对对友的领导力。所以我说KB24要更tough，这个有不妥吗？

大家爱护要命的心情我可以理解。找出的理由也是reasonable的，比如背靠被，上场时间过长等等。但作为职业球队或职业球员，sometimes you have to beat a team or a rival no matter what happened。比如昨天二战胡人的火箭就属于这种情况。看马刺打小牛，木木每次是什么样的表现？Do everything he can to BEAT mavs even though he is not 100%，So does the Spurs.　这是我对一个球队或球员特别是核心球员"toughness"的理解。I don't care how bad or how good JVG's coaching is, how badly he wasted yao or other rol player's energy.. what I know is going through hard battles and win is a must for a championship. The lacks of the hard battle win experience are the big problems for the Rockets right now.

If you are a true NBA fan, you should appreciate KB24's games. 他的才华，想象力，取胜欲望令人匪夷所思。你可以不喜欢他，but if you are a basketball, you should like his game. This is what I think about KB24. I really hate TD everytime when Mavs and Spurs match up with each other. But actually I am his big fan off the mavs court.
