: 标题:It is time for the OKC Thunder to embrace winning.
: 内文:
: The 2019-20 OKC Thunder season started out as a quest to rebuild the
: franchise. To tank for a year, maybe two. Now, the team is ready to make a
: playoff push.
“Abstract :
今年原是雷霆的摆烂元年，也许1年，也可能要坦2年。但我们现在准备好要打季后赛啦!”
: Wow, what a season it has been so far. We are only in the first week of
: January yet this season has taken on so many different twists and turns. The
: OKC Thunder sits with a record of 19-15 and holding the 7th seed in the
: Western Conference Playoffs as of Jan. 3rd. They have put the most
: entertaining product on the hardwood in years, and we are watching yet
: another star point guard develop before our eyes.
哇wo哇wo哇~虽然赛季还很长，现在也才是一月的第一周 。
但我们打出了19胜站稳了西区前7（目前已经20，而7-8之间有5-6场胜差）
这些年我们把最后欢迎的球员放在场上，但我们还没有看到另外一个明星控卫在我们眼前成长起来
（这边我的翻译跟原po差异巨大，可能要靠高手帮忙）
: Let’s take it back to the Russell Westbrook trade. When the OKC Thunder
: announced they were shipping off Franchise staple, fan-favorite, and future
: Hall of Famer the entire fanbase went into tank mode. That was on the heels
: of trading Paul George to his hometown Clippers and breaking apart an already
: disappointing core.
: 让我们回到Russell Westbrook的交易。当雷霆队宣布他们将售出阵中特别的主菜，
: 球迷最喜欢的以及未来的名人堂时，全部球迷都转成了坦克模式。
: 紧接着将Paul George交易到他的家乡快艇队，瓦解了已经令人失望的核心。
这边应该没问题
: After those trades, tanking was the only thing on our minds. If you will
: allow, let me peel back the curtain at Thunderous Intentions. After the
: trades went down, and the dust settled, I immediately rushed to our fearless
: leader at TI and put in a request to tackle the NBA Draft harder, and earlier
: than we ever had. With two first-round picks, and a roster that looked as if
: it would see a ton of losing and turnover throughout the season it felt like
: this year would be defined by the college game just as much as the NBA
: version.
: 交易过后，摆烂是我们心中唯一的事情，如果可以，让我理解雷霆计画背后的意图。
: 在交易量下降，一切都大致底定的时候，我立即赶到TI找到我们无畏的总经理，
: 并提出了要求，比以往更早地解决NBA选秀。两个首轮选秀权，加上看起来会大量亏损且
: 失误的名单，这感觉就像今年大学的一样，只不过这是在NBA。
后面应该翻成 ：
看起来会输爆被打烂的轮替阵容，就跟NCAA一样（应该是指Oklahoma State Cowboys）只是现在发生在NBA层级上
: I had ideas to do tanking updates each week, going to Tankathon.com and
: running random simulations until the OKC Thunder nabbed the top pick. I
: immediately bookmarked the page.
: Those plans get foiled when the OKC Thunder is currently pegged for the 18th
: pick (as well as the 26th pick from Denver) and are in the middle of a
: playoff push.
: After yet another comeback win toppling the franchise that has long given the
: OKC Thunder fits in the San Antonio Spurs that saw Shai Gilgeous-Alexander
: lit it up yet again, it is time to embrace winning.
: 我每次一有新的摆烂想法，就去Tankathon.com进行随机模拟，直到雷霆获得最好的选择。
: 我会马上将那加入书签页。
: 当雷霆队目前被选为第18顺位（以及金块的第26顺位），并且正处于前往季后赛之中
: ，这些计划都失败了。
: 在一场Shai Gilgeous-Alexander复出的逆转胜利，结束面对马刺长期的连败，
: 是时候去拥抱胜利了。
: I was fully on board with tanking, I was excited to tank. I was counting down
: the days until the organization dealt Gallo, Dennis, CP3 and anyone else of
: even a little value so I could watch Shai Gilgeous-Alexander run the show and
: the OKC Thunder draft James Wiseman or Cole Anthony.
: 我当时正全副武装，我对摆烂很兴奋。我倒数计时，直到球队交易了Gallo，Dennis
: ，CP3和其他任何一个甚至有一点价值的人，所以我可以看见Shai Gilgeous-Alexander
: 的演出和雷霆选下James Wiseman或Cole Anthony。
: Now, the OKC Thunder are closer to making the playoffs than capturing the
: first overall pick. That is pretty obvious when you consider that they are
: currently seventh. However, even if this team falls apart for whatever the
: reason (poor play, trades, etc) they are closer to the 12-14th pick than a
: franchise-altering one.
: 现在，雷霆更接近进入季后赛，但不是抓住第一个总冠军。当你考虑到他们现时排在
: 第七的时候，这是非常明显的。然而，即使这支球队因为任何原因（糟糕的比赛、交易等
: ）而分崩离析，雷霆也比其他重建的球队更接近12-14位的选秀权。
: At this point, making the postseason and getting Shai Gilgeous-Alexander,
: Darius Bazley, and Hamidou Diallo playoff experience is more valuable than
: the right to draft maybe the 12th best draft-eligible player.
: 在这一点上，进入季后赛，让Shai Gilgeous-Alexander，Darius Bazley，和
: Hamidou Diallo得到季后赛经验，比起获得第12名选秀权顺位的球员还重要。
: Sadly for some, the plans of tanking must be put on the backburner for at
: least a season. Heck, with SGA’s emergence, maybe the OKC Thunder can retool
: a championship level contender without outright tanking. While we all
: expected SGA to be fun, exciting, and new…no one expected him to play at an
: All-Star level in his first season with OKC (second in the NBA).
: 对于某些人而言，可悲的是，必须将加油计划至少放一个赛季。见鬼吧，随着SGA的出现，
: 也许雷霆可以在没有直接加油的情况下重新成为冠军级别的竞争者。虽然我们所有人都
: 希望SGA充满热情，令人兴奋和崭新......但没有人期望他在OKC的第一个赛季（全联盟第
: 二）打入全明星赛。
在某些人的认知，应该可悲的至少坦一个球季。但随着SGA的崛起，让那些计画见鬼去吧
而我们所有人都热情的期待，二年级生的SGA可以在雷霆的第一个赛季就入选AS
: Chris Paul has been amazing for this organization. Sure, his play on the
: floor has been exceptional and clutch. What stands out the most is him
: stepping aside for SGA and allowing the young guard to take over games late,
: close games for the OKC Thunder, and grow. That is an experience I do not
: think SGA would get with most superstar veteran future Hall of Fame point
: guards.
: Chris Paul对这个球队是神奇的。当然，他在场上的表现是出色的引擎。
: 最引人注目的是他为SGA让位并允许年轻的后卫接管比赛，为雷霆结束比赛并成
: 长。我认为SGA不会与大多数超级巨星老将或未来的名人堂控球后卫一起时得到。
CP3是雷霆的神奇领航者，在带领大家前进的时候让SGA成长茁壮。
我从未想过SGA可以跟一个名人堂一起打球并且成长
: Steven Adams, after a slow start, is playing some of his best basketball.
: Gallo has been a truly great complementary player and go-to scorer for this
: team. What the heck has gotten into Dennis Schroder? Everything seems to be
: breaking the Thunder’s way for the first time…ever?
: Steven Adams经过缓慢的起步后，正在打出自己最好的篮球。Gallo一直是这支球队真正
: 出色的补充球员和得分手。Dennis Schroder到底怎么了？一切似乎都第一次打破了雷霆
: 的道路……有史以来第一次吗？
水行侠在微幅的逆风后开始高飞、嘎哩那里健康而高效 。天啊！ 看看德软发生了什么事情，这可是雷霆史上头一遭（？
: This team is so fun to watch. It is truly exciting, and you can tell they are
: having fun together. For the first time in a long time, it is an enjoyable
: experience to sit down and watch the 82 regular-season games for the Thunder.
: With no pressure, this team has found themselves in the exact same spot as
: the previous two iterations of the Thunder that featured Russell Westbrook
: and Paul George.
: As we embrace winning, we shift our focus into making the NBA Playoffs. I
: hear some of you screaming at your screen: What is the point?! This team is
: not winning a title!
: 这个团队很有趣。这确实令人兴奋，你可以说他们在一起很开心。坐下来观看雷霆队的82
: 场常规赛是很长时间以来的第一次了。
: 在没有压力的情况下，这支球队发现自己与前一年雷霆队有Russell Westbrook和
: Paul George时完全相同。
: 当我们拥抱胜利时，我们将重点转移到了进入NBA季后赛上。我听到有些人在屏幕上尖叫
: ：这有什么意义？！这支球队没有赢得冠军！
: Outside of the experience, outside of being closer to a mediocre draft pick
: than a franchise-altering one, the answer is this team.
: Yes, the team is not going to hoist the Larry O’Brien trophy. However, this
: team is going to be an extremely tough out. That could mean pushing a top
: seed to six or seven games in round one. It also could mean pulling off a
: round one upset! Even Bill Simmons on the latest Bill Simmons show said that
: this OKC Thunder team is going to be one you do not want to face-off within
: the postseason. He also said they are a good wing player away from being a
: dangerous team, which we can discuss later.
: 这支球队除了经验之外，没有比重建球队更好的选秀权。
: 是的，球队不会举起总冠军奖杯。但是，这支球队将非常难出局。这可能意味着在
: 第一轮中将赛季第一血战至六七场比赛。这也可能意味着要打到第二轮！
: 甚至Bill Simmons在最新的Bill Simmons show中也表示，这支雷霆队将成为你不希望在
: 季后赛中对峙的一支球队。但他也说雷霆离开了一个优秀的侧翼球员，所以不是一支
: 危险的球队，我们稍后再讨论。
: So what does all this mean? Should the OKC Thunder buy at the deadline? Do
: they just not trade anyone? What happens now?
: 那么，这意味着什么？雷霆应该在交易截止前补强吗？他们只是不交易任何人吗？
: 现在会发生什么事?
: Well, the Thunder absolutely do not need to buy anything at the deadline.
: While Bill Simmons is right, another veteran wing would bolster this roster,
: this season is not about “going for it.” it also is not about tanking. It
: is about the experience.
: 好吧，雷霆绝对不需要在截止日期前补强任何东西。虽然Bill Simmons是对的，
: 但另一位经验丰富的侧翼老将会加强这一阵容，本赛季不是为了“不遗余力”
: 也不是为了摆烂。这是关于经验。
: So do the OKC Thunder just not trade anyone? Well, in my opinion, you do not
: have a fire sale. When I was asked this in October, I said trade everyone and
: just get something in return. Now, that is only true for Danilo Gallinari, he
: is the only player that I would be okay with the team trading no matter the
: return. That is due to his expiring deal.
: 那么，雷霆不会交易任何人吗？好吧，我认为不会有大买卖。当我在十月份被问
: 到这个问题时，我说要交易每个人，然后得到一些回报。现在，这仅对Danilo Gallinari
: 成立，他是无论回报如何我都可以交易的唯一球员。那是由于他的合同即将到期。
: 短评或心得:建立良好的赢球文化真的重要，尤其手上根本一堆签了，摆烂有点多余，
: 今年也不像勇士老鹰，就算上层想摆，CP3不给你摆阿!
没修改的地方就是大部分都差不多
短评： 雷霆现在可能要考虑用最小的代价留下Gally
他可能是2020暑假最好的FA之一 （我喜欢他大于抓猛）
然后源源不绝的首轮可以持续为雷霆添入战力与筹码
现在就看CP3油箱的油还可以跑几年了
