https://x.com/i/status/2008998681282789683 SGA telling the story of Sam Presti giving him The Tortoise and the Hare book during his Sportsman of the Year speech is a must watch. "I'll never forget when I first arrived at OKC and you gave me the book The Tortoise and the Hare. You explained to me the meaning behind it and I’d be lying if I said I hoped I didn’t need it at the time. And boy were the next few years very, very rough. I think we won 25 games one of the following seasons and that was a lot. Eventually, when we started to weather the storm, I revisited that story and I started to see how it relates to my own path and our own path. This past season, when we won the championship he gave me a statue of the tortoise, and that's a very Sam Presti way of saying 'I told you so.' I keep that beside my championship ring, my MVP trophy, and thank you for that."(@SInow) SGA在Sports Illustrated的「年度最佳運動員」得獎致詞時，提到當年 Sam Presti 曾 送他《龜兔賽跑》的故事書。 Shai Gilgeous-Alexander:「我永遠不會忘記，當我第一次來到 OKC 的時候，你送了我 那本《龜兔賽跑》。你跟我解釋了這個故事背後的寓意，如果我說當時的我不希望自己需 要這本書，那我就是在說謊。 而接下來那幾年，真的真的非常艱難。有一個賽季我們好像只贏了25場比賽，但那在當時 已經算很多了。後來我們開始慢慢撐過那段風暴，我又重新回顧起那個故事，也開始明白 這旅程是怎麼和我及雷霆團隊產生關聯的。 就在這個賽季，當我們贏得總冠軍時，他送了我一座烏龜的雕像。那是非常Sam Presti式 的在說『我早就告訴過你了』。我把那尊雕像放在我的總冠軍戒指、MVP 獎盃旁邊，謝謝 你。」 -- 那誰是兔子 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 220.141.224.56 (臺灣) ※ 文章網址: https://webptt.cc/bbs/NBA/M.1767836969.A.28B.html
