洛杉磯康普頓 Drew League 2017 夏日特報~

或許有些小人物們會知道，紐約有著名的 Rucker Park 街頭籃球，是那種運球過人切入時間差上籃的後衛搖籃。老球皮們或許還記得的左撇子瘦皮猴 Kenny Anderson, 曾經因為And1 Mixtape紅遍全球的 Rafer Alston，以及在北京找到家的前太陽明星Stephon Marbury都是其代表控球後衛。不過近年來在球季結束後的夏天，最有機會看到NBA球星身影的業餘聯盟，絕對是位於洛杉磯，西岸嘻哈發源地Compton外圍一點點，有著44年歷史的 Drew League。

於1973年，總裁Dino Smiley, 創辦人Alvin Wills, 教頭Charles Lovley以及幾位大老共同發起，讓當地的孩子，街頭傳奇，還有職業籃球明星可以一齊在LA盡情發揮對籃球的愛。同時，Drew League 基金會也成為協助當地青年克服學校，生活，經濟上面困難的一股力量。自今已經有提供超過544個家庭食物，給予79個獎學金，還有培育了19位 Mentor/指導員來幫助這處於LA最貧窮之一的社區。同時，44年來，來Drew League比賽的NBA球員一年比一年多，當然大多數都是來自於或是就住在LA的，其中包括Kobe Bryant, 以及今年小人物Hans去實地湊熱鬧看到的前黃蜂後衛Baron Davis, 暴龍的DeRozan, 騎士的 Iman Shumpert, 2018年火箭後衛 James Harden / Chris Paul。現場還有其他來觀看的NBA球員，如勇士的 JaVale McGee, 以及D.Wade.

當然，絕大多數的球員還是以在地業餘的籃球選手為主。但是看比賽的感覺跟看NBA有什麼不同? 小人物Hans認為，雖然從技術技巧層面來說，隨便一場快艇對什麼魔術還是高很多。但是那種在一個當地高中體育館，場內塞到爆滿，每一個Play都有DJ用誇張的語調報導，絕大多數的觀眾都是當地愛籃球從小看到老的居民，那種籃球就像是生活空氣那麼自然的氣氛，是NBA充滿濃濃商業味道的氣息完全無法取代的。更令小人物Hans注意的是，相對於"打籃球是工作"的NBA球員來說，Drew League球員上場除了愛籃球也沒有任何其他理由，而有誰會在有機會面對NBA球星時輕鬆打健康養身籃球? 於是在人人都是小人物，沒有NBA的不能碰撞限制，沒有裁判的明星待遇 (以至DeRozan一度對裁判發飆)，比賽的刺激度，肢體碰撞度，對於籃球的熱衷度，遠遠超越了許多NBA季賽，甚至是首輪的季後賽。

想像年輕時候曾經為了打球可以做出什麼不理智行為，做出多大的付出和努力。想像從小放學就一直耗在球場上，把那橘色的球投進那個籃框就是全世界最理所當然的事。Drew League的空氣中大概就是那樣的渴望卻又自然情緒。

各位小人物若是未來夏天有機會來到洛杉磯，先不要急著去什麼好來屋，湖人快艇主場朝聖。記得和小人物 Hans 一樣，來呼吸看看這沒有商業味道，美國西岸最純正的籃球滋味。

想知道更多關於Drew League現場的感覺，記得期待下一集的小人物上籃!

Allen Iverson is on the last leg of the 2012 China Legends Tour, a six city, seven game exhibition tour that has featured Iverson, Clyde Drexler, Dennis Rodman and some D-Leaguers as they’ve traveled around to play Stephon Marbury and the Beijing Ducks and some other Chinese teams. It’s been a big hit with fans and with media, both of whom have been running wild with the idea of A.I. potentially playing professional ball in China next year, a scenario that some teams are apparently interested in realizing.

What happens with that will be settled another day, however. For now, the main focus is finishing up these last two games in the tour’s last city and making it safely back to the comforts of the United States.

That last leg, however, happens to be Taiyuan, Shanxi province. The city is well-known within Chinese basketball for a few reasons: It’s where Marbury got his start in the CBA. It’s where Jim Yardley wrote his book about the Shanxi Zhongyu Brave Dragons and their eccentric owner, Boss Wang. It’s where fans throw water bottles and lighters onto the court at the sound of a blown whistle. It’s also where they block opposing teams’ buses, hurl bricks at it and accuse former players (Marbury) of beating down its fans.

Luckily, Iverson and company likely won’t have to deal with the latter two during their stay. After Michael Jordan and possibly Kobe Bryant, A.I. is easily the most popular all-time NBAer in China. During the trip, he has been met by flocks of fans who wait at airports, hotels, restaurants, promotional events and stadiums with the hope that they can catch a glimpse of their beloved Answer.
