Celtics star Jaylen Brown hits back at critics saying East is weak
塞尔提克球星Jaylen Brown回击了关于东区很弱的批评
For a long time now, the perception around the NBA is that the West is the
more superior conference over the East. However, Boston Celtics guard Jaylen
Brown has some words to say about those who continue to push that narrative.
很长一段时间以来，人们对NBA的看法是西区比东区更优秀。然而，波士顿塞尔提克后卫
Jaylen Brown有话想对那些继续坚持这种说法的人说。
Per Chris Forsberg of NBC Sports Boston, Brown believes the Eastern Conference
is just as good, especially with six really good teams at the top.
根据波士顿NBC体育的Chris Forsberg的Twitter，Brown认为东区联盟也很棒，特别是有6
支很优秀的球队的战绩属于联盟顶尖。

Jaylen Brown：“东区很好，人们总是轻视东区，我认为东区真的很棒。特别是前6、7名
的球队都很强大。所以这些尊重不靠别人给予，得靠自己争取。”
Jaylen Brown certainly has a point, especially this season. Both the East and
the West are on par with each other record-wise, as the top six teams in each
conference have, at most, just 12 losses each.
Jaylen Brown会这么说自然有其道理，特别是这个赛季。东、西区目前的战绩不相上下，
各分区排名前6的球队最多只输了12场比赛。
The Milwaukee Bucks sit atop the conference and throughout the entire league
with a 29-5 record. The Celtics are not far below at 22-8 and are just one gam
e
behind the surprise team of the season so far, the Miami Heat.
密尔瓦基公鹿队以29胜5败的战绩坐稳联盟龙头。塞尔提克以22胜8败的战绩紧随其后，目
前也仅落后本季迄今为止最令人惊讶的球队-迈阿密热火队1场胜差。
Moreover, the Philadelphia 76ers have the most stacked starting unit on paper,
while the Indiana Pacers are thriving even without All-Star guard Victor
Oladipo.
此外，费城76人队的先发阵容是最强大的，而印第安纳溜马队即使没有全明星后卫Victor
Oladipo，球队依然很强盛。
The fact that we just ran through the elite teams in the East and still haven'
t
mentioned the defending champion Toronto Raptors, who currently sit at fourth,
is a testament to how tough the conference has become.
事实上，我们刚刚提及了好几支东区的顶级球队，却依然还没有提到卫冕冠军多伦多暴龙
队，他们目前排名第四，这也证明了东区的艰难。
The East is definitely stacked with all the aforementioned teams gunning for a
chance to be the conference's representative in the NBA Finals in June 2020.
毫无疑问地，东区已经挤满了上述这些球队，他们也都在为了成为2020年6月份的总冠军
赛的东区代表而努力。
Brown and the Celtics have also exceeded expectations so far this 2019-20
season.
到目前为止，Brown和塞尔提克在2019-20赛季的表现也远超人们的预期。
Several analysts and experts expected the Celtics to take a step back after
they lost Kyrie Irving and Al Horford in the 2019 offseason, even though they
added All-Star Kemba Walker as their Kyrie replacement.
在2019年的夏天，他们失去了Kyrie Irving和Al Horford之后，一些分析师和专家预计塞
尔提克的战绩会出现退步，尽管全明星Kemba Walker的加盟能替代Kyrie Irving的角色。
Boston has been playing splendid basketball so far this season under head coac
h
Brad Stevens. As evidenced by their top-five offense and top-six defense with
the third best net rating in the league, the Celtics have re-established
themselves as legitimate contenders for the title.
到目前为止，在总教练Brad Stevens的带领下，波士顿塞尔提克这个赛季一直打得很棒。
他们的进攻排在全联盟第5、防守排在全联盟第6、净胜分排在全联盟第3，塞尔提克队重
新证明了自己作为总冠军有力竞争者的地位。
Brown, individually, is having himself a breakout campaign in his fourth NBA
season. Through the first 26 games of the season, the 23-year old swing man
is putting up career-highs across the board with 20.7 points, 7.0 rebounds and
2.4 assists while shooting at an extremely efficient 52.1 percent from the
field, 39.9 percent from three and 75.2 percent from the charity stripe.
就个人表现而言，Brown在他的第四个NBA赛季中有了突破性的表现。在本赛季的前26场比
赛，这位23岁的摇摆人以高效的52.1%投篮命中率、39.9%三分命中率、75.2%的罚球命中
率，场均贡献职业生涯新高的20.7分、7.0个篮板、2.4次助攻。
今年东区前段班真的有点恐怖
