Sources: Lakers teammates 'isolating' D'Angelo Russell after video surfaces
The Los Angeles Lakers, sputtering to the end of Kobe Bryant's farewell season
with the worst record in franchise history, face a fresh crisis involving
prized rookie point guard D'Angelo Russell, according to team sources.
今年将是 Kobe Bryant 的最后一个赛季，然而洛杉矶湖人不仅用队史上最烂的战绩送给
Kobe当作饯别礼，最惨的还在后头，被视为少主中兴、用第二顺位选来的 D'Angelo
Russell 被爆陷入一个新的危机当中。
Sources told ESPN.com that some teammates' trust in Russell is eroding after a
video surfaced in the past week that shows Russell recording a private
conversation between himself and teammate Nick Young. Young does not appear to
realize he is being taped.
透露给ESPN的消息指出，湖人有些队友觉得，在网络流传出 Russell 偷拍与Nick Young
私底下对话的影片后，已经让自己黑掉，而在影片中可以看的出来 Young 压根不知道自己
的对话内容被偷拍下来。
The video, which is believed to have come to light last week via the Twitter
account of a celebrity gossip site, shows Russell filming Young while asking
questions about Young being with other women. Young got engaged to Australian
rapper Iggy Azalea last summer.
而这支影片上周已经在 Twitter 一个公众人物的帐号上曝光，显示当时 Russell 趁著问
Young关于他跟某一个女生话题的时候偷拍，而 Young 才在去年夏天刚刚跟澳洲的饶舌歌
手 Iggy Azalea 订婚而已。
While it's unclear how the video became public, sources say the resulting
tension in the Lakers' locker room in recent days was among the factors that
contributed to L.A.'s limp showing in Salt Lake City on Monday night, when they
absorbed a 48-point pounding from the Utah Jazz. The loss was the Lakers' worst
in franchise history.
现在还不知道到底这个影片是怎么流出来的，但消息来源指出，这也间接造成了最近在湖人
更衣室内气氛紧绷，还有星期一晚上以48分的大比数，在盐湖城被爵士血洗的原因之一，同
时也是湖人队史上输最惨的一次。
Various Lakers officials are aware of the issue and are dismayed with Russell,
sources say, but to this point they have chosen not to intervene.
消息也说这个事件震惊了许多湖人高层的人，并对于 Russell 的行为感到非常失望，
但在这个节骨眼，他们选择先不深入这件事。
"Right now," one source said, "they're handling it by isolating him."
一个不知名的人:“现在，高层的做法就是先孤立他。”
Austin Brown, Russell's agent from Creative Artists Agency, declined to comment
when reached Tuesday.
来自 Creative Artists Agency 代表 Russell 的经纪人 Austin Brown 拒绝对这件事做出
任何回应。
Said one team insider: "This was a prank gone wrong and a mistake by [Russell],
and he has to be held accountable, but I would hope he isn't overly criticized
for it."
一来自球队内部的人表示：“这个就是Russell自己玩笑开过头闯祸了，他自己要出来面对
，但我希望他出来解释的时候不要火上浇油。”
The emergence of the video, sources said, has been the talk of the locker room
for the past several days and has led to a tangible strain between Russell and
some teammates.
根据消息，这个影片也导致在过去的几天，让 Russell 与湖人更衣室内的其他队友产生
嫌隙。
At a recent breakfast meeting, one source said, no Laker would sit with Russell
at his table. The source added that, in another instance, Russell came into the
locker room and sat next to guard Lou Williams, who got up and walked away.
甚至最近大家一起早餐的时候，没有一个人愿意跟 Russell 同桌，消息还说当 Russell
走进更衣室坐在 Lou Williams 旁边，Williams还直接起身快闪。
"It's bad," one team source told ESPN.com's Ramona Shelburne. "It's about as
bad as it can get. There were trust issues already. Now there's no trust."
消息透露给ESPN的Ramona Shelburne提到：“这真的太糟糕了，说多糟就有多糟。现在
已经演变成信任问题，已经没有人愿意相信他。”
In the video, Russell asks Young at one point, "You was 30 and she was 19?"
referencing Young's age and the age of another woman that Young said that he
met in a nightclub.
在影片中，Russell 与 Young 正讨论 Young 在夜店认识的一个女生，问了一句：“你30岁
然后她19岁？”
"What about Amber Rose?" Russell later says, mentioning another celebrity.
Russell 接着问:“那 Amber Rose 呢?”(另外一个社交名人)
"No, she knows my girl," Young is recorded as saying.
Young回答：“没啦她认识我马子。”
Later in the conversation, while apparently still recording, Russell is heard
telling Young, "I'm glad you told my video all that."
在之后也被拍下来的对话内容中，Russell 跟 Young说:“我很感谢你接受我的访问。”
"Huh?" Young says, turning his face toward Russell before the video cuts off.
Young (转头过来对着Russell)：“蛤????”
The Lakers have long considered Russell to be a key part of their future after
using the No. 2 overall pick to select him a year ago and raved about his
"superstar" potential on the night they drafted him. Even Lakers coach Byron
Scott, whose handling of Russell this year has been scrutinized, came into the
season speaking of him in the same breath as Lakers legend Magic Johnson when
describing Russell's court vision.
湖人去年用宝贵的榜眼签选进D'Angelo Russell，把他当作未来基石一般看待，选他的那天
晚上还赞扬他拥有“超级巨星”的潜力。就连湖人总教练 Byron Scott 今年对Russell也是
细心照料，在本季开打前跟 Magic Johnson 一样同时也论及到他在球场上的视野。
Russell started the Lakers' first 20 games before being moved to the bench
along with second-year forward Julius Randle. And Scott, on countless occasions
this season, has publicly questioned Russell's maturity.
Russell开季时以先发的身分打了20场比赛，后来跟另一名二年级生 Julius Randle 改由板
凳出发，而总教练 Byron Scott 今年也在无数次的访谈中，公开质疑 Russell 心态不成熟
"He's such a kid," Scott said in February. "I told him the other day, 'You're
19, but sometimes I think you're 14.'"
Scott在二月接受采访时说到:“他真的是个小孩，有一天我跟他讲，你已经19岁了，但
有时候我觉得你才14岁。”(回应JRSmith大大的留言)
Russell is averaging 13.1 points, 3.4 assists and 3.4 rebounds over 27.5
minutes in 72 games this season.
Russell 本季上场72场比赛，平均超过27.5分钟，缴出13.1分、3.4次助攻和3.4次篮板的
成绩
Young hasn't played in 10 games and didn't travel with the team to Salt Lake
City because of gastroenteritis, according to the team.
而 Nick Young 已经10场比赛没有出场，也因为肠胃炎没有随队前往盐湖城。
