President Barack Obama staying loyal to Bulls in NBA Playoffs
April 28, 2015, 6:30 pm
The Bulls haven't played their best basketball of late, but their biggest
(and most powerful) supporter is still in their corner.
尽管公牛尚未表现出自己最好的那一面。
但他们最大的支持者仍在角落默默挺他们。
President Barack Obama was asked where his loyalties would stand should the
Wizards and Bulls meet in the Eastern Conference Finals, and the Commander In
Chief was quick to back his hometown team.
在被问到东区冠军可能是公牛打巫师时，美国总统欧巴马表示自己支持公牛。
“I think it’s fair to say any time the Bulls are playing I’m rooting for
the Bulls,” he told the Wall Street Journal. “Bulls all the way, that’s
how we roll.”
欧巴马表示：
“我想，公平地说，不管啥时，只要公牛有比赛，我就会支持他们。
我永远支持公牛！
It's the second time this season Obama has reiterated his loyalty to the
Bulls, telling Colin Cowherd in December that the Bulls were his pick to come
out of the East, despite LeBron James and the Cavaliers heating up.
这是欧巴马第二次表达了对公牛的支持。
第一次是在去年12月，LeBron James回骑士且状况正火热时，
欧巴马当时还是认为公牛会拿下东冠。
"The Cavs are starting to jell but I like Tom Thibodeau as a coach,” the
President said. “The guy is tough. They play hard. [Joakim] Noah is a
fighter. If [Derrick] Rose, even if he doesn’t come back to MVP levels, if he
’s playing at an All-Star level, I think the Bulls can beat the Cavs this
year."
“骑士开始融合起来了，但我很喜欢Tom Thibodeau教练，他执教很严厉。
他们打得很强硬，Noah是个斗士。
如果Rose能打出全明星身手，那怕不是MVP水准也没关系。
我觉得今年公牛会击败骑士。”
When told of Obama's comments, Thibodeau smiled and said, "He's got my vote."
当记者将欧巴马的回应告诉Thibodeau，
Thibodeau则表示：“他赢得我的选票了！”
