關於 huddle up ，我們在網路上蒐集到這些相關的討論、資訊與評價

早安，昨天小偷了一下懶，沒有起床念英文，今天還是拜小犬之賜早起，想到前一陣子的夯書《原子習慣》以及近來我看到的一篇習慣養成的文章，都有講到內在動機的驅動不如外在情境的改變來得有效，也就是說，與其不停告訴自己英文很重要，我要起床念英文，不如製造一個一定得早起的情境，譬如我可以陪小犬去坐公車，就一定會醒過來，或是像我一個朋友，每天睡前把泳衣穿在身上，逼自己每天去晨泳。

主婦的時間有限（更正：大家的時間都有限），有時候真的需要一心二用、一魚二吃，才能有效地利用時間。

現在經營娘子軍創業資源整合平台的我，最需要的就是管理跟行銷相關的知識，所以我目前念的文章就會以這方面的文章為主，在送小貓（小犬是兒子，那小女就是小貓啦）上學之前，能念多少算多少，等送完小貓上學，又是一連串忙不完的創業事宜，還有回不完的訊息海（這是一位娘子軍團媽說的，她說加入娘子軍團媽的行列後，就有一望無際的訊息海），總之寫文章、讀英文、學行銷，一鴨三吃，我早起這個小時就很有價值了，雖然心中有個小小的聲音，還想更早起床幫兒子做早餐，請容我先小小聲在這裡許願。

今天要唸的文章是這篇
《The winning sales huddle: 10 ways to amp up your team》
成功的銷售會議：增強團隊實力的10種方法

在美式足球裡，Huddle是指賽前的討論，球員與教練通常會圍成一圈

（突然想問大家小時候有學過狄克森片語嗎？以前背那些超像的排列組合片語，背得好想死～～）

話說今天早上小犬問我，為何早上很想睡卻要爬起來，中午不想睡卻要逼他們午休，完全是我小時候的心情耶！我只能拍著他的肩膀說，媽媽小時候也是這樣的。至於為何不晚點起床不要午睡（不要問我這麼得罪人的教育政策問題）

今天讀英文的心情好轉折～～～

It seemed like a highly unlikely game for Allen Iverson to sink his first career game-winning buzzer-beater.

Iverson shook off an awful performance to make a 14-footer at the overtime horn and give the Philadelphia 76ers a thrilling 106-104 victory over the depleted Indiana Pacers.

"It's just a great feeling to hit a shot with no more time left on the clock and they can't do nothing about it," Iverson said. "It's something that never happened for me. I've had the winning free throws, but it's not the same thing as hitting the game-winning shot. I might have hit shots that put us ahead, but just that one right there is a feeling that I can't even express."

Second in the NBA in scoring at 28.2 points per game, Iverson had one of the worst outings of his career, making 5-of-23 shots and committing seven turnovers. Iverson could not find the range, was sloppy while running the offense and was on the bench when Philadelphia climbed back into the game in the second half.

But the Sixers forced overtime on the seventh 3-pointer by Kyle Korver, a 28-footer with 3.7 seconds in regulation. Korver scored a career-high 23 points.

"That wasn't the play we drew up in the huddle," Korver said. "Our initial play was to pass into Marc Jackson, run a couple of player screens. That obviously didn't happen, so we pitched it back and forth. I knew we needed a three so I went back as far as I needed to go to get it off. I shot it and it went in."

"That play was a mistake by our coaching staff," Pacers coach Rick Carlisle said. "We gave our guys a coverage that wasn't the right coverage and it cost us. If we hadn't, Korver wouldn't have gotten that wide open look."

In the extra session, Iverson finally found a rhythm with a runner that tied it at 104-104 with 1:19 to play. On Philadelphia's next possession, Iverson missed a jumper to fall to 4-of-22. But Indiana's James Jones also missed a jumper, setting the stage for Iverson's heroics.

From right of the top of the circle, Iverson dribbled down Eddie Gill into the lane, stopped short and leaned into a jumper that rattled in as the buzzer sounded, giving the 76ers their second straight win in overtime.

"I didn't have any doubt that I was going to take the last shot if I was played man-to-man," Iverson said. "I honestly feel like my teammate expected me to, but they had their hands ready if guys came off of them."

Iverson entered the NBA in 1996 and has collected five All-Star berths, three scoring titles and an MVP award. But he had never made a pure game-winning shot, although he had one to beat Germany in an exhibition game last summer.

"Allen had a tough shooting night," Sixers coach Jim O'Brien said. "He had some good looks at the basket. His shots didn't fall until that last one, but who cares about the other 18."

"I've found out in my career that if I do keep playing regardless of struggling, something positive will happen," Iverson said.

Marc Jackson had 21 points and 10 rebounds for the Sixers, who erased an eight-point deficit in the final two minutes of the fourth quarter. On Wednesday, they rallied from six points down with 70 seconds left to defeat New Jersey in overtime.

In this one, the Sixers outlasted the Pacers, who used their size advantage and 3-point shooting to build a 17-point lead in the third quarter but simply ran out of bodies. Dressing just eight players, Indiana lost Jermaine O'Neal (career-high 39 points), Jamaal Tinsley (10 assists) and reserve center David Harrison to fouls in overtime.

"The difference in the game was the ref calling a foul on me when I got elbowed in the face," O'Neal said. "Also the foul on Jamaal when Iverson jumps into him. It upsets me that the game can be taken away from us."

Ron Artest scored 29 points in his return from a two-game benching and Stephen Jackson added 17 points for the Pacers, who have lost two in a row after opening the season with four wins. Indiana made 11 3-pointers but none in the final 12 minutes.

The Sixers could not have won without the hot-shooting Korver, who scored 11 points in the fourth quarter. His jumper made it 98-92 with 1:49 left, and Iverson added two free throws with 58 seconds to go.

Josh Davis made a free throw and Marc Jackson sank two, making it 98-97 with 16 seconds to go. The Sixers fouled Austin Croshere, who made both foul shots, setting the stage for Korver.

For the sixth time in as many games, the Sixers fell behind by double digits. The deficit grew to 76-59 late in the third period when Iverson missed a shot, threw away a pass and committed an offensive foul on consecutive possessions before taking a seat.

"We're not playing every quarter. We could easily be 0-and-6," he said. "Hopefully the light switch turns on and we start to get it."

Allen Iverson and the rest of the 76ers are used to the boos that followed nearly every New Jersey basket in the fourth quarter.


What they haven't heard too much of was an earful from their easygoing coach, Maurice Cheeks.

Vince Carter scored 31 points and had 10 assists to lead the streaking Nets to a 101-90 win over the sliding 76ers on Wednesday night.

The Atlantic Division standings show the Nets with a four-game lead over the second-place Sixers. The gap, though, seems considerably wider considering New Jersey has won 12 of 15 while Philadelphia has lost seven of 10.

"We knew it was important for us to keep them behind us," said Cliff Robinson, who had 15 points for the Nets.

Cheeks finally had enough of watching his team ignore basic defensive principles and fail to sustain a full effort, and did all the talking during a roughly 30-minute postgame team meeting. Cheeks was typically mellow when he finally met the media, saying the Sixers were a "work in progress" that would eventually become the type of team that can make some noise in the East.

"It's us trying to stay together, which we will, and to keep working to figuring out how to win games," Cheeks said. "There are a lot of things we've got to work on."

Iverson led the Sixers with 36 points and Chris Webber had 15.

"The most I got out of it was that guys need to take a challenge to make this team better," Iverson said. "He talked about during this bad time that we're going through right now that it was important for everybody to stick together."

Iverson came up limping late in the fourth quarter when he appeared to knock knees with Jason Collins on a driving layup. Iverson hobbled around the court, rubbed his right leg, but remained in the game. Cheeks said Iverson was fine.

Much like how the Sixers collapsed in their embarrassing 104-76 loss to Washington on Monday, they again put up little fight in the fourth quarter.

The Nets got a pair of jumpers from Robinson and a 3 from Richard Jefferson during a 10-0 spurt that opened the fourth and gave them an 86-69 lead.

The home crowd started booing and heading for the exits. After making only two baskets in the first three quarters, Webber hit a 3-pointer and a 16-footer on consecutive possessions that helped pull the Sixers within eight.

Carter pushed back the Sixers with a couple of jumpers and the Nets cruised from there. Jefferson had 20 points and 16 rebounds, and Nenad Krstic had 16.

"That was a good win against a divisional rival on the road," Nets coach Lawrence Frank said.

Iverson had attempted only 12 shots and scored eight points in the first two quarters before he finally got going after the Nets used a 10-0 run to take a 60-46 lead in the third.

Iverson scored 11 straight points and had 19 of Philadelphia's 27 points in the third to cut the deficit to 77-69. Iverson complained after Monday's loss that he wasn't sure about his role on the team and what he could do to help the Sixers win.

Cheeks shrugged off Iverson's complaint and said before the game he had no reason to speak with his star point guard about his place on the team.

Iverson joked that Cheeks always needed during his seven seasons as a Sixers assistant to be prodded by former coach Larry Brown to speak up in the huddle or after practice. That quiet assistant has morphed into much more vocal coach. Iverson described Cheeks as "angry, and he had every right to be."

"I've been seeing a different side basically all year long," Iverson said. "His demeanor is totally different from being an assistant coach and the Maurice Cheeks that I got to know throughout the years of him being here. I expect it because he has a different role now."

Cheeks shuffled the starting lineup, hoping for some sort of combination that would instill a much needed defensive toughness. He benched 3-point threat Kyle Korver in favor of the more defensively adept John Salmons, but nothing changed. The Nets scored 30 points and shot 52 percent in the first quarter.

Michael Bradley did grab a season-high 10 rebounds in 17 minutes -- more than double his usual playing time.

"It's always easy when you get beat to beat ourselves up," Cheeks said. "We're going to keep trying, keep working." ^Notes:@ Korver had started the first 37 games and checked in for the first time with 3:22 left in the first quarter. He also had a bobblehead of his likeness given to fans and signed autographs after the game for fans who donated winter coats as part of his annual goodwill drive. ... The Nets led by as many as 17 points and made eight straight baskets in the first quarter.
