It was just announced that the famous Staples Center, which has housed some
absolutely historic moments in Downtown LA, will soon have a new name.
Starting Dec. 25, the arena will be called Crypto.com Arena, and Los Angeles
Clippers star Paul George has some reservations about the name change.
最近刚宣布了位于洛杉矶市中心且拥有许多历史时刻的Staples Center即将会有新名字的
消息。从今年的圣诞节起，这个体育馆将会改称为Crypto.com Arena，洛杉矶快艇球星
Paul George对于此事有一些质疑。
The arena, which will house the Clippers in addition to the Los Angeles
Lakers, Kings, and Sparks, has been named Staples Center since its opening in
1999. The Lakers won five NBA titles at Staples Center. The Kings won two
Stanley Cups. The Sparks won three WNBA championships.
这个做为快艇湖人国王及花火队主场的体育馆自从他1999开幕以来就一直叫Staples
Center这个名字。湖人在此赢下了5座NBA冠军。国王赢下了2座史丹利杯。花火队赢了3次
WNBA冠军。
News of the arena’s new naming rights broke during the Clippers’ home game
against the San Antonio Spurs on Tuesday night, sending media members and
even some fans at Staples Center into a bit of a frenzy.
这个命名新闻在星期二快艇主场面对马刺的比赛爆发并使媒体以及一些在Staples Center
的球迷陷入一点疯狂。
After the team’s win over the Spurs, Paul George wasn’t sure about
transitioning to the new arena name.
"It’ll be weird,” Paul George admitted. “I grew up, this being Staples,
and Staples being the place to play and the place to be. It’ll definitely be
weird. It’s just, it’s the same location, but it’s kind of like just
stripping the history here by calling it something else. You know, from there
going forward, it’s I guess the new history to be written. But it’ll be
weird. For sure.”
在快艇赢下对阵马刺的比赛之后，Paul George对于适应至新主场名不是很确定。
"这会感觉很怪，"Paul George承认。"从我成长时他就叫做Staples，且Staples一直都是
我打球及我待的地方。这一定很怪。他还是同一个地方但被叫其他名字感觉它的历史被剥
夺了。我猜在这之后会有新的历史被撰写，但当然也还是会很怪。"
While the Lakers, Kings, and Sparks should stay at Staples Center for the
foreseeable future, the Clippers are planning their move to Inglewood.
Construction on their new arena, the Intuit Dome, has already begun and is
expected to be open for the start of the 2024-25 NBA season.
"Good thing we won’t be here too long, so, we’ll be at our own place,”
George joked. “So it is what it is, I guess.”
虽然湖人、国王及花火在可视的未来还会待在Staples Center，快艇正在计画搬家到
Inglewood。快艇新主场Intuit Dome的建设早已开始且预计会在NBA 2024-25开季时开幕
。
"好事是我们不会在这里待上太久，我们会在我们自己的家。"George开玩笑地说。"那也
只能接受了，我猜。"
Cryptocurrency has grown exponentially over the last few years, but
especially so over the pandemic. George says he and the team he has put
around him have gotten him into cryptocurrency and non-fungible tokens (NFTs).
加密货币最近几年有指数性的成长，尤其是疫情期间。George说他及他的顾问团队有进入
加密货币及非同质化代币的投资(NFTs)。
"Yeah I’m into crypto,” George said with a laugh. “I mean it’s something
that’s growing and I’m not the smartest person in the room, but I’ve had
people around me that’s kind of educated me on crypto, NFTs, and just where
it’s going, so it’s no surprise that crypto found a way to get their hands
on an arena just with where it’s all going. So it’s no surprise, but yeah,
i definitely am into crypto and want to see it through.”
"对，我有投资加密货币，"George笑着说。"那是一个正在成长的产业我也不是这里最聪
明的人，但我身边有一些人教导我关于加密货币及非同质化代币，然后就如你所见。所以
加密货币找到方法把他们的手伸进一个体育馆并不让人感到意外。总之，我绝对对加密货
币有兴趣也想要看到他成长。"
