LBJ称联盟是自打脸，阿银：尊重詹姆斯的观点
James was vocal about his displeasure when the NBA announced plans to hold a
n exhibition during the near-weeklong break before the start of the season's
second half.?
当NBA宣布计划在剩余的半季开始前的近一周的休息期间举办明星赛时，詹姆斯直言不讳
的表达了他的不满。
"I have zero energy and zero excitement about an All-Star Game this year," J
ames told reporters last month. "I don't even understand why we're having an
All-Star Game.
对于今年的全明星赛，我没有任何精力和兴奋。詹姆斯上个月告诉记者。我甚至不明白
为什么我们要有一场全明星赛。
Some of James' frustration stemmed from the short offseason for the Lakers,
who only had 71 days off from their victory over the Miami Heat in Game 6 of
the NBA Finals to the start of the regular season on Dec. 22.
詹姆斯会有这样的反应是来自于湖人短暂的休赛期，从总决赛第六场战胜迈阿密热火到
12月22日例行赛开始，湖人只有71天的休息时间。
When the NBA initially decided this season would start in December, it didn'
t have plans for any All-Star festivities. The league announced on Feb. 18 p
lans for a single-day All-Star event in Atlanta that will include the Skills
Challenge and Three-Point Contest before the All-Star Game. The Slam Dunk C
ontest will take place at halftime.
当NBA最初决定本赛季将在12月开始时，联盟并没有任何举办全明星的计划。 2月18日，
联盟宣布计划在亚特兰大举办为期一天的全明星赛，其中包括全明星赛前的技术挑战赛
和三分球赛。 灌篮大赛将在中场休息时举行
Silver said he did not take offense to Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James
calling it a “slap in the face” for the NBA to hold an All-Star game durin
g a compressed 72-game season just two months after the 2019-20 season ended
on a quarantined site.
联盟原本表示在短暂休赛季后，不会在接下来的缩水赛季里举办全明星赛，詹姆斯称联
盟如今就像是“自打脸一样”。对此阿银表示尊重詹姆斯的观点。
“It would be incredibly hypocritical of me to tell LeBron you should speak
out on issues that are important to you, but not ones when you are critical
of the league,” Silver said. “We’re all part of a community.
阿银：如果我告诉詹姆斯你应该在对你来说很重要的议题上直言，而不是在你批评联盟
的时候畅所欲言，这将是非常虚伪的，我们都是联盟的一部分。
I respect him and his point of view. But at the same time, I also appreciate
his professionalism.
我尊重他和他的观点。 但同时，我也很欣赏他的职业精神。
