Kevin Durant said Joel Embiid deserves the MVP. He’s doubtful he’ll win it, though, because the Sixers center is not as likable as the two other leading candidates.
KD认为Embiid值得一座MVP。即便他认为不会发生因为铅笔不像另外两位候选人(Jokic、Giannis)一样”被喜欢”。
“There’s a lot of players that’s been controlled by their narrative,” Durant said. “Some of it has been because of the player and some of it has been about the perception other people have about that player. In Joel’s case, more people just like Giannis (Antetokounmpo) and (Nikola) Jokic.
“有很多球员被他们的故事控制。”KD说
“有些是因为球员本身，有些是因为其他人对他们的看法。以铅笔为例，人们更喜欢字母哥和小丑。”
“It’s as simple as that. His personality, his story I guess. As a basketball player, if people look at just the game and what is on the floor,” Durant continued, “then narrative and who you are and your personality, that stuff doesn’t really matter or shouldn’t matter. Joel, they probably just like those guys better. It’s not fair. But that’s how it goes at time. If I had a vote, I would choose Joel.”
“事情就是这么简单，球员的个性和故事。身为一个篮球员，如果人们只关注比赛和球场上的表现，那么球员的故事、性格那些就不是真的很重要或是应该那么重要。人们更喜欢另外两位，这对铅笔不公平，但过去一直都是如此，如果我可以投票，我会投给铅笔。”
Durant said Embiid’s empty MVP trophy case should be another reason to give him the nod, and the threshold for back-to-back awards — as Jokic could accomplish and Embiid already did — should carry a higher threshold.
KD表示铅笔没有得过MVP也是他该当选的原因，因为back-to-back MVP的门槛应该要更高
“I feel like if you are going to win back to back MVPS, it should be like Steph Curry. His first MVP, he averaged 23 points and seven rebounds. His next one, he stepped up such an enormous level (averaged 30.1 points for a 73-win team),” Durant said. “If you are going to get two in a row, you can’t duplicate the same thing you did the year before. That’s just how I feel. … To win two in a row you have to do something way bigger than the year before. I think back-to-back MVPS are special and the
season you have to have team-wise and individual-wise, all has to come together to win back-to-back. I feel like Jokic had an incredible season but Joel season was just as good, if not better.”
“我认为如果要赢得背靠背MVP，就应该要跟Curry一样。咖哩第一次的MVP场均23分7篮板，第二次的MVP他有了极大的进步(场均30.1分，球队73胜)。如果你想要连续赢得MVP，你不能只是做到去年就能做到的事，那只是我自己这么想。如果要连续MVP，你必须做些什么远比去年更多，我认为背靠背MVP很特别的地方在于同时需要队伍和个人方面有所成长才能赢得。我认为Jokic有一个惊人的赛季但是Embiid跟他一样棒，但没有更好(比起去年)。”
