If and when the Sonics return to Seattle, could Kevin Durant come back, too?
如果Seattle有新球队，KD会去吗？
Could Kevin Durant one day return to Seattle as a Sonics player?
KD有可能某一天回到西雅图成为超音速球队的一员吗？
“Who knows?” Durant told Bill Simmons on the latest episode of his podcast.
“谁知道呢？”KD在最近接受Bill Simmons访问时说到。
Yeah, there’s still the little semantic issue of bringing the Sonics back to
Seattle. But, Durant has made it clear time and time again, he loves this
city, and he misses hooping here.
是啦，西雅图是否会有新球队还在未定之天，但是KD不只一次说到，他喜爱西雅图这城
市，他想念在这边打球的感觉。
Last year, he renovated a public court at Seattle’s Powell Barnett Park, and
professed his love for the city he once called home, wondering what might
have been had the Sonics not moved.
去年，他翻新了一个西雅图市立公园的公共篮球场，他那时表示他对西雅图这曾经他称为
是家的城市的爱，也曾想过若是超音速若是没搬家的话，历史会变成如何。
“I think about it all the time,” Durant told Sports Illustrated’s Chris
Ballard. “Being here with the fans, the community, the leaders here in
Seattle, they all embrace the team and the players. I can imagine growing up
here. I was 19 when I started, so growing up here definitely would’ve been
amazing. I would’ve really called this city home.”
“我无时无刻不在想这件事，”KD告诉运动画刊记者。“在这里跟球迷在一起，跟这个大
家庭一起，跟这城市的大家一起，他们都对球队与球员非常包容。我可以想像在这里成长
的感觉。我开始打球的时候是19岁，所以若是可以在这边成长会是充满惊奇的。我可以把
西雅图称做家的。”
In June, he attended Hoopfest in Spokane, where he called his year in Seattle
“one of the best years of my life.”
在今年6月，他参加了一个在华盛顿州东边城市Spokane的三对三篮球活动，当时他说在西
雅图的那年是“他人生中最棒的其中一年”。
And this week, Durant appeared on the the Ringer’s Bill Simmons’ podcast to
talk hoops. Here’s what he said when the Sonics came up:
在这一周，KD接受了Bill Simmons的访问，谈到有关篮球跟超音速的事情。
Bill: “When did you know the Sonics were leaving?”
Bill:“你什么时候知道超音速要搬家的？”
Kevin: “Late June. Somebody called me and was like, ‘We’re moving to
Oklahoma City.'”
KD：“六月底，有个人打电话给我跟我说，‘我们要搬到奥克拉荷马市去了。’”
Bill: “If Seattle got an expansion team, would you finish your career in
Seattle?”
Bill:“若是西雅图可以增加球队，你希望可以在西雅图退休吗？”
Kevin: “Good question. Who knows? I feel like they deserved to see me grow
up in the league, you know what I’m saying? As far as me being drafted there.
”
KD：“好问题，谁知道呢？我觉得他们有权利看到我如何在联盟成长茁壮的，你知道吗？
至少我一开始选秀是被西雅图选走的。”
Bill: “That was pretty terrible for a variety of reasons. You lose your
team, you lose a team that won the title, but then you also lose Durant and
Westbrook.”
Bill:“从很多方面来看，失去超音速对西雅图是很悲惨的。球队没了，而且是曾经赢得西
区冠军的球队，也失去了KD跟龟龟。”
Kevin: “You feel for them when it comes to that, but you never know what
happens on the ends of the business side of stuff. Who knows what went on
with that. But from a fan’s standpoint, seeing us that first year and seeing
the start, that’s when (GM Sam Presti) first got there. I feel like they
deserve to see some of that through a little bit.”
KD：“你可以与他们感同身受，但是你永远不会知道从生意观点事情会如何变化。但是从
球迷的观点，看到我们第一年的表现，那是球队总管Sam Presti刚到的时候。我认为西雅
图的人们有权利看到更多这样的经验。”
