Kawhi Leonard is out here playing 4D chess.
Kawhi Leonard 筹画著不为人知的缜密计画。
He never wanted to play with LeBron James or join a superteam, but he took a
meeting with the Lakers and remained in constant communication anyway.
The Los Angeles Lakers were convinced they had their guy and Kawhi clearly
never gave them a reason to feel differently.
他从来没打算和LeBron James同队或加入超级队伍,但他仍与湖人见面并保持联络。
湖人自认他们取得成果,而Kawhi显然也没让湖人感到疑虑。
But it makes sense that he knew exactly what he was doing.
Dragging this whole thing out meant the Lakers ran out of time to sign a
third star.
但是他显然知道自己在做什么。
将时间拖下去代表湖人没时间签第三个明星。
They also missed out on every half-decent free agent (other than Danny Green,
ironically). Kawhi’s people even contacted the Lakers two hours before
making the Clippers announcement, asking them to hold off on making the
Anthony Davis trade official, according to ESPN.
湖人也错失了所有次一级的自由球员(当然是除了Danny Green之外)。
Kawhi的团队甚至在宣布加盟快艇两小时前请湖人延迟AD交易(ESPN报导)。
And it wasn’t just the Lakers that Leonard drove a knife into.
By helping Paul George escape OKC, he destroyed Russell Westbrook and the
Thunder.
He vaporised the Raptors’ chances of defending their title or even
contending at all.
He ended the Warriors’ dynasty and even indirectly ended Kevin Durant.
被Leonard捅了一刀的不只是湖人。
透过帮助Paul Georage离开雷霆,他摧毁了西河和雷霆。
他消灭了暴龙寻求卫冕或甚至竞争的能力。
他终止了勇士王朝,间接终止了Kevin Durant。
Kawhi was the reason the Raptors were up 3-1 in the Finals, which pushed
Durant to return before he was ready and suffer the most devastating injury
in basketball.
Kawhi是暴龙在总决赛取得3-1领先的原因,这促使Durant在完全康复前上场,并遭遇到对
篮球而言最糟的伤病。
So, Leonard sabotaged one contender and completely annihilated two others all
at once.
Throw in the San Antonio Spurs and that’s four contenders ticked off his hit
list.
On and off the court, Kawhi Leonard is a cold-blooded killer, making moves
none of us thought a Fun Guy was capable of.
换言之,Leonard破坏了一个竞争者并同时完全摧毁另外两个。
把马刺加进去,他的名单上已经有四个竞争者打了勾勾。
无论在场上或场下,Kawhi Leonard都是冷血的杀手,没有人会认为一个方盖能办到这样
的事情。
