How will DeMarcus Cousins affect Warriors team chemistry?
Cousins会如何影响勇士的团队化学效应？
OAKLAND — DeMarcus Cousins already has a favorite Warriors player. He likes
the quiet one.
Cousins已经有一个最喜欢的勇士球员了，他喜欢安静的那一位。
“By far, it’s Klay,” he said, cracking up at the mere mention of his name.
“For him to be as dull is he is, there’s never a dull moment.”
“目前来说，会是KT，”当仅仅只是说出KT的名字就让Cousins大笑不已。“像他这样钝钝
的人在队上，永远不会有无聊的时刻的。”
It bodes well for the Warriors that Cousins arrived at his introductory press
conference Thursday touting the virtues of being boring. Because for much of
his basketball life, Cousins has been way too interesting. If Klay Thompson
is the human snooze button, Cousins is the blaring alarm.
这也预告了星期二Cousins在他的记者会上讲著"无趣是个美德"这件事。因为在Cousins的
篮球生涯，他总是沉醉在追求乐趣。如果KT像是个人体打盹按钮，那Cousins就会像是个大
声公了。
The 6-foot-11, 270-pound center has been cast as divisive, hot-tempered,
brooding, immature and combative. And now the Warriors are dropping that
personality into their sweet championship chemistry like a packet of Mentos
into a bottle of Diet Coke.
6尺10吋，270磅的中锋，Cousins被认为是一个很有意见的，脾气不好的，不与人交谈，不
成熟的，以及好斗的人。现在，勇士要把那样一个球员放进他们的甜美冠军团队里，那就
像是要把一包曼陀珠放进一罐健怡可乐里。
Is it gonna blow?
会爆炸吗？
“Yeah there’s going to be some moments,” Warriors General Manager Bob
Myers said. “But we might need some moments. We needed something different,
even though we finished the way we wanted to finish. There was some stale to
our season. I don’t think it’s boring with this guy.”
“应该会有一些那种时刻吧，”勇士总管Myers说。“但是我们需要那种时刻，我们需要一
些不同的，即使我们也用了我们想要的方式达到了我们的目标。在过去那个赛季，我们有
稳定的时候。我不认为跟这个家伙相处会无聊的。”
Myers said this a few minutes after Cousins put on a charming performance
during his first press conference as a Warrior. The four-time All-Star sat on
a stage erected on the team’s practice court. And the pressure was on the
native of Mobile, Ala., to be on his best behavior: About 160 youth
basketball campers lined the perimeter, looking on in wonder.
Myers在Cousins开始在记者会展现魅力之后几分钟讲了上面这段话。四届全明星，坐在球
队练习场搭起的舞台上，压力都在这位出身于阿拉巴马Mobile市的Cousins上，希望他能有
好的表现，为什么呢? 因为旁边有160位参加勇士夏令营的小朋友在记者会的外围，好奇的
看着。
Cousins delivered one-liners and doses of good humor, including playfully
suggesting that it’s been tough to strike a deal to pry uniform No. 0 away
from Patrick McCaw. “Let’s just say that Pat’s a tough negotiator,” he
said.
Cousins用笑话跟他的幽默感开场，包括他开玩笑的暗示说他跟MaCaw很艰难才达成交易，
拿到0号球衣。“我们可以就是说MaCaw是个很会谈判的人，”Cousins说。
He also had a little fun with new teammate Draymond Green, his fellow
technical foul magnet. “The Warriors are easy going people,” Cousins said.
“Well, maybe outside of Draymond.”
他也跟他的新队友Green开玩笑，Green本身也是技术犯规常客。“勇士的人都是很好相处
的啦，”Cousins说。“嗯，大概除了Green之外。”
If a reporter’s question hinted at controversy, the big man kept his answer
so clipped and bland that Klay himself would have been proud.
如果说记者问些充满争议的问题，这大个子则用简单扼要的方式回答，这方式连KT都会以
他为荣。
And when it was over, Myers compared Cousins not to the stoic half of the
Splash Brothers but to the most fiery Warriors player of all.
而当Cousins结束之后，Myers不是把Cousins拿来与浪花兄弟，而是与勇士球队里最悍的球
员来比较。
“Draymond is beautifully imperfect,” Myers said. “But we love him and he
wins … I think Cousins is competitive. I think he’s passionate. A little
bit like Draymond in that he’s really revealing in what he’s feeling. It’s
right there on the surface. If he’s upset, you’re going to see it from 100
yards away.
“Green是漂亮的不完美，”Myers说。“但是我们很爱他而且他也能赢球...我认为
Cousins是有竞争力的，充满热情的，在让人知道他的感觉这方面，Cousins有点像Green。
那很明显，如果他很不爽，你大概在一百码外就可以看得出来。”
“Guys like that are so passionate and competitive, and I’ve always said
that about Draymond. You can overcome those deficiencies or faults — if they
are faults. If caring too much is a problem, well, you have to care to win in
this league. Winning and losing has to matter more than a little bit.”
“像那种充满热情与竞争力的球员，我也这样跟Green说，你可以克服这些缺点的
