※ 引述《arod1414 (Kawhi Leonard头号粉丝)》之铭言：
: KD：人们讲的好像我去勇士前一事无成似的
: KD spoke on not getting respect throughout his career.

: KD谈到在他的整个职业生涯中都没有得到尊重：你们只是在仇恨一位上帝。人们谈论我的方
: 式会让你认为我在联盟中只打了六年，好像我去勇士之前一事无成一样。你们做点功课吧。
: 我一直在这。

: 是确实未获尊重？还是确实一事无成？

KD转队到勇士时
Reggie Miller发过一篇有名的文章 那时我有翻译放上来
http://0rz.tw/QCgUT
过了五年 他写的内容很贴切目前KD的状况
以下节录最后几段:
People always ask, "What made you stay in Indiana for all those years?" This
is the best way I can answer that question: Your checkout teller at the
grocery store, the attendant at the gas station, the ushers, the waiters, the
waitresses—all these fans laughed and cheered with me, and they cried with
me after the losses to Shaq, MJ and the Knicks. We were in it together.
人们常问我 什么原因让你在印第安纳待这么多年?
我的回答是 商店中的柜台结帐人员 加油站员工 接待员 服务生
所有的球迷们总是给我鼓励与微笑 当我们输给湖人 MJ和尼克时
他们与我们一起哭泣 我们是一体的
I could not look at those fans had I gone somewhere else. I could not win a
championship in Miami like LeBron, popping bubbly and all that, knowing
there's a group in Indiana that stayed with me when I wasn't able to win a
title. I couldn't turn my back on that fanbase and say, "Yay, I got a ring!"
如果我去了别的球队 我甚至无法再与这些球迷们互动
只要想到在印第安纳有一群球迷一直支持着我
我就无法跟LBJ一样到迈阿密拿了冠军
我无法无视这些球迷们然后说 嘿 我得冠了
That's why I believe Durant took an unnecessary shortcut by joining the
Warriors. Fans in smaller markets, like Oklahoma City, live and die with
their teams. Going to playoff games and driving through the neighborhood,
almost every house has signs and banners from kids.
正因此我才相信KD加入勇士是走了一条非必要的捷径
小市场球队的球迷 如Oklahoma 是与球队一体的
当季后赛开打时 如果到附近晃晃 几乎家家户户都悬挂著来自孩子们的加油标语
It gives me chills thinking about those experiences in Indiana. And that's
not to say Durant won't encounter this with Golden State. He might. But he's
in someone else's kingdom now.
每当想到在印第安纳的美好经验就让我感到开心
这并不是说KD到了勇士不会得到如此热烈的支持 他会的
只是这里是别人的王国
Don't get me wrong, Durant will be the alpha dog. On the court, the pecking
order will be Durant, Curry, Green, then Klay Thompson. But Durant will
forever play in Curry's kingdom. He was with them first. He won a title for
them first.
无疑KD在勇士会是领袖 球场上的主角会是KD 咖哩 追梦绿和K汤
只是KD永远是在咖哩的王国打球 他会先为他们赢得冠军
If Durant would have won in Oklahoma City, it would just be better. It would
have been better if he joined any team that wasn't a ready-made contender.
But in Oklahoma City, winning one title would be like getting three or more
in Golden State. Failing to win one with the Thunder would arguably be more
admirable than collecting any number of titles with the Warriors.
如果KD已为雷霆赢得冠军 情况会好很多
如果他加入的不是一只已经建构好的强队就更好了
在雷霆夺得一冠的意义还是高于在勇士拿三冠甚至更多
即使在雷霆无法夺冠 还是比起在勇士收集冠军来得令人敬佩多了
This is just my opinion. Others will feel differently. People will read this
and say, "This is coming from a guy who never won a championship." That's
fine with me. And again, I get Durant's decision. I understand that
temptation.
这只是我的个人想法 想法不同的人看完这篇文章会说 这只是一个没有冠军球员的废话
没关系 重申一次 我了解KD的决定 我了解那种有机会夺冠的诱惑
The Celtics wanted me to come out of retirement in 2007-08, when they won a
title with Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett. I couldn't do it. There was an
opportunity to join the Lakers at one point. I couldn't do that, either. And
maybe I should have.
青赛曾经在07-08球季邀请我复出 那个球季他们有Ray和KG并夺得冠军
但我拒绝了
也曾有机会加入湖人 但我也拒绝了 也许我应该这么做才是
But to me, a king should never leave his kingdom.
但对我来说 身为王者就该留在自己的王国里
小城市球队及一人一城的加持
Miller退休这么多年了 依然是溜马的神主牌
溜马队的粉丝专页只要po到跟他有关的文章 按赞数都是远超其他文
未来Curry一定也是神一般的地位
个人真的觉得KD可惜了
