记者：篮网相关人士被西门给激怒
It looked like Brooklyn Nets star Ben Simmons was finally going to suit up in Mo
nday’s Game 4 against the Boston Celtics. But a day after the Nets lost again t
o the Celtics to go down 3-0 in the first-round series, Simmons was ruled out be
cause of his back injury.
看起来布鲁克林篮网队球星西门原先终于要在周一对上塞尔提克队的第四场比赛中上场了。
但是在篮网队第一轮0-3落后给塞尔提克队的第二天，西门因为背部受伤被排除在比赛之外
。
Brooklyn’s immediate reaction to the news was that of disappointment, and ESPN
’s Brian Windhorst says “people involved” are “exasperated” with this whole
saga:
篮网队对这一消息的第一反应是失望，ESPN的温胖表示，“相关人士”被西门的这一连串事
件给“激怒”:
It’s hard to blame them at this point. This whole Ben Simmons situation has bee
n weird all season. From refusing to play for the Philadelphia 76ers to now not
playing at all for the Nets after being traded for James Harden, there have been
so many twists and turns with this drama. Brooklyn surely didn’t see this comi
ng after getting Simmons in the Harden trade, even if they knew it would take a
little while for him to be ready to play.
这个时间点，很难去责怪他们为什么会有这种反应。西门的情况在整个赛季都很奇怪，从拒
绝为76人队打球，到现在被交易后也完全没为篮网队打球，这场闹剧经历了太多的波折。在
胡子的交易中得到西门后，篮网队肯定没有想到这一点，即使他们知道西门需要一段时间才
能准备好上场。
Maybe this back injury has been truly problematic this whole time. Back injuries
can be tricky and debilitating. But there were so many signs that Simmons was a
bout to be ready to play, and now that’s up in smoke all of a sudden. As Windy
says, it’s all “extraordinarily disappointing.”
也许这个背伤一直以来都是西门真正的问题，背部伤势很棘手，也会使人衰退。但是有很多
迹象表明西门已经准备好参加比赛了，而现在这一切突然都烟消云散了。正如温胖所说，这
一切都“非常令人失望”。
