Former Denver Nuggets point guard Chauncey Billups thinks that current
Nuggets point guard Ty Lawson should be traded. Billups appeared on 104.3 The
Fan in Denver on Thursday and explained why:
近日在接受丹佛当地电台采访时，
前金块球星Chauncey Billups表示，金块应该把Ty Lawson交易走，他也解释了为什么...
Do the Nuggets have to move on from Ty Lawson?
Q：金块必须要交易掉Ty Lawson吗？
Yes. I think so. I mean, well, one, Ty, he has not demonstrated what you want
from the leader of your team and a guy who they've handed the keys to. He's
not demonstrated the kind of leadership that you want. And you have a young
kid named [Emmanuel] Mudiay coming in who I think has a chance to be a star
in this league. Right now the best player on the team is Ty Lawson. As a
young player in the league, you come in 19-20 years old, you oftentimes try
to emulate some of the actions on the floor and off the floor of the best
player because that's one day what you want to be. So I think just from the
standpoint of the welfare of Mudiay and the well-being and the growth of
Mudiay, you have to get Ty Lawson and you have to move him along.
Billups表示：
“是的，我认为是这样。我的意思是：第一，Lawson并没有展现出一个领袖应有的样子，
他没有展示出你所需要的领导力。而现在你已经有了Mudiay这样的年轻球员，
我觉得他将来有机会变成联盟中的明星。
现在，金块最好的球员是Ty Lawson，作为年轻球员，在19、20岁的年纪进入NBA，
你常会在场上场下模仿你队内最好的球员，因为他们是有朝一日你想成为的模板。
所以我觉得为了Mudiay将来的成长着想，必须交易走Lawson。”
What would you take for Ty? How desperate are you to make that move?
It's tough. You know, I think he just needs a change of scenery. Obviously
you gotta get proper value for him because he is still a very good player and
I think in the right situation Ty can be good for somebody. But Ty can't be
the leader of your basketball team. I thought they knew that, but you find
out how you find out. But I think you try your best to move him but you don't
want to get beat over the head for him. At the moment right now, he's not
giving everybody a good snapshot of what he is, with the immature things that
he's doing, whether it's social media, the things that he's saying. So you're
looking from the flips side and you're saying, ‘Yeah, the guy's a good
player, but do I really want him on my team with all of that?' You know what
I mean? So it's not just him as a player and what he can do. This is a guy
that's gonna come there, he's not coming to be nobody's backup. He's a
starter. He's a good player. So it's tough what he's doing right now.
这段有点懒得翻，大意是说...
“Billups觉得Lawson需要做出点改变，显然Lawson依然有很高的价值，
他是一个非常优秀的球员，在合适的环境中他能有优异的表现。
但Lawson却无法成为一支球队的领袖，他的一些所作所为、
包含他在社交网络上的言论并没有给人留下一种好印象。”
(注：此前有消息说金块打算交易Lawson，而Lawson也曾表示自己想要替小牛打球，
当金块在选秀大会上选中Emmanuel Mudiay时，Lawson在网络上拍影片说他
认为自己要被送到国王去了)
