【新唐人2012年2月21日讯】过去一周，“篮球小子”林书豪的炫风横扫全球。据《福布斯》杂志估计，23岁的林书豪的品牌价值已经窜升到1400万美元，在全世界运动员中排名第六，是世界上品牌价值增长最快的运动员。有着华裔背景和亚洲面孔的他，再次引发人们的讨论：中国能否“制造”出一个林书豪?
20号，林书豪再次以耀眼的球技，征服美国职篮(NBA)纽约尼克队主场的所有球迷。不管是助功或抄截，切入或长射，都让人惊喜，他所表现的已经不单单是球技，而是让篮球活了起来。
作为近半个世纪以来NBA的第一个“哈佛”毕业生，林书豪所创造出来的传奇故事，让不少篮球迷对他的成功故事倒背如流。出生在美国加州的林书豪，父亲林继明和母亲吴信信来自台湾。这样一位有着华裔背景的“哈佛小子”的爆红，也再次引来人们对中国运动员培养体制的反思。
美国《时代周刊》记者汉娜•贝茨撰文发问：中国能否“制造”出一个林书豪? 贝茨认为，就目前而言几乎不可能，因为中国并不看重球员对篮球的热情，而像林书豪这样的控球与防卫的位置，最需要创造性，往往在中国体育系统中被磨灭了。
前中国篮球国手陈凯指出，由于中国的“举国体制”，运动员可能被任意抛弃，这让中国队员非常害怕承担责任。
陈凯：“（在中国）每个队员上场后都是小心翼翼如履薄冰，生怕犯了什么错误。但是在篮球运动里面，关键时候你（得）敢撒手，关键时候你（得）敢投这个篮。（而）当一个文化进入这样一种状态的时候，每个人都想逃避自己个体责任的时候，他怎么能打出好球来呢？这个是一个非常深刻的文化原因。”
林书豪的成功被评为带有明显的美国特色，是靠个人奋斗成功的典型。而陈凯指出，举国体制的体育是一种病态体育。
陈凯：“它整个体制是消灭个体激情的，消灭个体的认同，消灭个体对运动、对任何事物的爱好，包括人的爱好。（而）林书豪这个人他是真正热爱这个运动的，他打球是非常激情的、投入的，30分钟40分钟，他都是拚命打。所以体育这个东西，它是一种社会文化的反射。”
尼克队教练狄安东尼(Mike D’Antoni) 受访时，描述林书豪说：“他的内心世界十分巨大。”而林书豪在接受台湾媒体采访时，表明信仰对他很重要。
陈凯：“有信仰的人不对自己撒谎。当你不对自己撒谎的时候，你打球的时候，你就会把注意力集中在打球上面，而不是集中在对自己找借口上面。你像林书豪有时候打球会犯错误，犯错误没关系，有信仰的人相信自己可以在这里面学习，可以进步。我觉得这是非常非常重要的。一个人如何打球反映他如何生活。”
美国苹果电脑创始人乔布斯是一位佛教徒，去年乔布斯逝世时，有人提出观点认为，做一个人应该要有信仰才能够成功，但中国却很少有那样的宗教信仰，所以“中国没有乔布斯”。
目前在中国个人信仰不仅不能受到法律保护，人们还可能随时为了坚持信仰而失去自由和生命。

Can China Have Its Own Lin Shuhao?
In the past week, the “Basketball Boy” Lin Shuhao news
are spreading around the world.
Forbes magazine estimates the brand value of the 23-year-old
Lin had jumped to $14 million, ranking sixth in the world.
His athlete’s brand value is the fastest growing
in the world at the moment.
Having Chinese background, he once again made people
discuss whether China can “create” its own Lin Shuhao?
On February 20th, Lin Shuhao once again inspired the fans
of the host NBA field, New York Knicks.
Assist, steals, cut-in or long shot, each of them were amazing.
His play was not just skills, but it made the basketball alive.
Lin Shuhao is the first Harvard’ graduate in NBA
for nearly half a century.
The legend Lin Shuhao have created makes many basketball
fans know his success story well.
Lin Shuhao was born in California, US, with his father
Lin Jiming and mother Wu Xinxin coming from Taiwan.
With this background and being on focus, the “Harvard boy”
makes people reflect on the Chinese sport’s system again.
Hannah Bates, Times’s reporter in the US, asked in an article,
can China “create” someone like Lin Shuhao?
Bates believes this is now almost impossible, as China
does not value the enthusiasm of the players in basketball.
However, Lin Shuhao’s skills of ball control and defense
need creativity, which is eroding in Chinese sport’s system.
Chen Kai, a former Chinese basketball national team player,
shared his view in the issue.
Chen pointed out that China’s nationwide sport’s system
is such that it can arbitrarily dismiss athletes.
This makes the Chinese players feel very insecure
and not ready to take responsibilities.
Chen Kai: “(Chinese) players are like skating on a thin ice,
for fear of making mistakes.
But in the basketball sport you should dare make the move
at the right moment, you should dare shoot a basket.
When the culture is that everyone wants to avoid
responsibility, how can he play basketball well? This is a very deep cultural reason.”
Lin’s success was rated with clear American characteristics.
It’s a typical success that depends on the individual’s effort.
However, Chen Kai pointed out that a sport’s system,
which is nationwide but centrally controlled is a sick one.
Kai Chen: “Its whole system is to eliminate person’s passion,
to eradicate individual’s recognition, hobbies, sports, etc.
And Lin Shuhao, he really loves this sport.
He plays basketball very passionately and is devoted.
Whether 30 or 40 minutes, he just loves to play.
So sports are a reflection of the social culture.”
When Knicks coach Mike D’Antoni was interviewed,
he said that Lin Shuhao’s inner world is very great.
And when Lin Shuhao was interviewed by Taiwan media,
he showed that belief is very important to him.
Chen Kai: “A person with belief is genuine
and does not lie.
Since you don’t lie, when you play you’ll focus on the game,
instead of concentrating on finding excuses for yourself.
Lin Shuhao sometimes makes mistakes when playing.
It does not matter if you make mistakes.
A person with belief knows that he can learn
from it and make a progress.
I think this is very, very important.
How a person plays basketball reflects his life.”
Apple founder Steve Jobs was a Buddhist. Last year, when
he left us people spoke of the link between belief and success.
But very few people in China have religious beliefs;
therefore “China does not have its Steve Jobs.”
In China personal beliefs are not only unprotected by law,
but people can lose their freedom and lives for their beliefs.
