语言真的是很妙的东西，我们来看看原文
Spurs coach Gregg Popovich was asked what helped to bring about LaMarcus
Aldridge's resurgence: "When he said, ‘I want to be traded.' It's as simple
as that. I said, ‘Woah, nobody's ever said that to me before.' It's my
20-whatever year, and nobody's ever said that like, ‘I'm not enjoying this.
I'm not confident. I'm not sure you want me here. I want to be traded.'"
Popovich was asked if that conversation took place after the season. "Yes,
yes. I thought that's already been public? So, we had some dinners and
meetings and laughed. I was very candid with him. I told him, ‘I'd be happy
to trade you. You get me a talent like Kevin Durant, and I'll drive you to
the airport. I'll pack your bags. And I will drive you there, get you on the
plane, and get you seated.' He laughed you know, that kind of thing. I said,
‘But short of that, I'm your best buddy because you're here for another
year, and you ain't going nowhere. Because we're not gonna get for you
talent-wise what we would want. So, let's figure this thing out.' And we did.
That's what we came to. As discussions went on, it became apparent to me that
it really was me. He's been playing in the league for nine years. I'm not
going to turn him into some other player. I could do some things defensively
or rebounding-wise. But on offense, I was going to move him everywhere. That
was just silly on my part. Total overcoaching. So, we took care of it, and
he's been fantastic."
上色的地方是Pop所说的话，如果是我翻译的话会这样写：
LA：老大，我没办法乐在其中，我没信心，我不确定你想要我留下，我想被交易。
Pop：好啊，我会很高兴把你交易出去，你会为我带来像是KD一样的球员，然后我
载你去机场，帮你打包行李然后送你上飞机，帮你铺好位子。
LA：哈哈哈。
Pop：但简单来说，我会是你最好的伙伴，因为你会在这再一年，哪里都不会去。
我们并不会因为送走你就得到我们想要的天赋，所以让我们认清现实吧。
简单来说，Pop根本没酸Aldridge，反而是用干话跟怀柔方式留他下来。
