Sample Sentences

从表面上来看，里弗斯已经达到了恶心火箭队的目的了，但我一直认为他是被高估的一位教练，虽然他曾经带领波士顿凯尔特人队拿到一枚冠军戒指，但他也曾经两次在三比一大比分领先的情况下，被对手翻盘，这样的表现远远配不上冠军教练的美名。

From appearances it seems like Rivers is really out to get the Rockets, but I've always thought he was overestimated as a coach. Although he once led the Boston Celtics to win championship rings, it's been twice now that he has lost after starting with a 3-1 lead, that's far from the performance of a champion coach.
