[外絮] 大學隊友&教練分享Lillard"節儉"的軼事

Phil Beckner, assistant coach: He was so damn tight with his money. He was the biggest tightwad ever.

助理教練Phil Beckner：「他對錢實在是抓得太緊了，他是有史以來最吝嗇的小氣鬼。」

First is Lillard’s utter refusal to have his car’s broken window fixed.

首先是，Lillard的車窗破了也不去修。

Beckner: He had a broken window in his car and he wouldn’t get it fixed. He couldn’t get the ice off his car one day so he had to put his head out the window to drive to class.

助理教練Phil Beckner：
「他的車窗戶破了，硬是不修。有一天擋風玻璃上的冰層無法清掉，
他就將頭探出那個破掉的車窗外開車去上課。」

The teammates also shared about how Lillard would always eat at Burger King and either order from their dollar menu or use coupons for discounts.

其他隊友也分享了Lillard在漢堡王吃飯，以及使用優惠券的事。

Kyle Bullinger, forward: Every single day Damian Lillard ate Burger King for lunch. Every. Single. Day.

前隊友Kyle Bullinger：「每天Lillard都吃漢堡王當午餐，每、一、天！」

Josh Noble, guard: He always ordered off the dollar menu and always used coupons. If he found a coupon somewhere, he would use it. He wasn’t paying full price for nothing.

前隊友Josh Noble：
「他永遠都點打折的套餐，而且老是使用優惠券。
如果他找到一張優惠券，他一定要用掉，非打折他不買單。」

Fulton: He would eat the meals the coaches would give us in the locker room, like PB&J sandwiches. On the road trips, he’d freaking fill his bag with as many Powerades and Gatorades as he could.

前隊友Fulton：
「他會吃教練在休息室發給我們的餐點，像是花生醬三明治什麼的。去客場比賽時， 他會盡可能地將他的包包全部塞滿Powerades以及Gatorades(開特力)飲料。」

有一點點好笑。但我不是貼來嘲笑他的，看了也有一點點心酸。記得我們以前有討論過類似的話題(印象中我有搜到他小時候的窮聞)，這個人以前一定窮到怕了。
