How did you tell “him” you were leaving Denver?
你是怎么告诉“他”你要离开丹佛的？
Tell who?
告诉谁？
The big man.
那位大个子。
Usually when I'm in free agency, my representation, my agent always advises
me not to talk to anyone, to keep myself away from that so he can handle that
side. I didn't get a chance to really talk to nobody in the process of making
my decision. But after I did, everybody congratulated me. We're still brothers.
通常在我进入自由市场时，我的经纪人总是建议我不要与任何人交谈，让我远离这一过程
，让他来处理那一部分。所以我实际上没有机会在做出决定的过程中与任何人交谈。但做
出决定后，每个人都向我表示祝贺。我们依然是兄弟。
When it’s your life, everything matters. How did you prioritize?
当涉及到你自己的生活时，所有事情都很重要。你是如何优先考虑的？
For me, I prioritized my family, first. That's the main thing, putting me
and my family in a great position. Also, just talking to my agent, getting
all the numbers, that side of that. And the team and the organization, where
I feel I fit in best, where I think I can make an immediate impact. A lot of
that goes into choosing where I want to be. The relationship: Who wants me? I
don't want to go underlooked. Orlando, they saw my value. And me, just looking
at their organization, their coaching staff, I know some of their coaching
staff. Some of the players, I know; I've played against for a while. Just
watching them throughout the whole season, a lot of that came into play about
picking where I wanted to land.
对我来说，家人是我的首要考虑。这是最重要的，确保我和我的家人处于一个很好的位置
。当然，我也与我的经纪人讨论，了解所有数字，还有那一部分的考量。还有球队和组织
，我觉得我在哪里最合适，我能在哪里立刻产生影响。这些都是我选择目的地时考虑的因
素。还有关系：谁想要我？我不想被忽视。奥兰多看到了我的价值。而我，看着他们的组
织和教练团队，我认识他们中的一些人。一些球员我也认识，我已经和他们对战了好几次
。整个赛季看着他们，这些因素都影响了我的选择。
Were they at your door at 6:01 on the 30th (of June, the first minute of free
agency)?
在6月30日（自由市场开始的第一分钟）他们就在你家门口了吗？
My agent knows more of the details, but as soon as I hit free agency, Orlando
was one of the first teams to reach out, which I respect so much. I really
thank them for giving me the opportunity, to bring my value over here and my
championship mentality that I have, and just be a leader for the young guys.
我的经纪人知道更多细节，但一旦我进入自由市场，奥兰多是第一批联系我的球队之一，
这让我非常尊重。我真的很感谢他们给了我这个机会，让我把自己的价值和冠军心态带到
这里，并且成为年轻球员的领袖。
You could have gone pretty much anywhere. What stuck out for Orlando?
你几乎可以去任何地方。奥兰多有什么吸引你？
The young core. These are most of the guys that they had last year, just
adding new pieces. But that core they have, they already believe in each
other, trust each other. Just watching them, the way they played, it was not
‘me, I.’ Everybody took sacrifices. For a young team to be able to grow up
that fast says a lot about them and their organization. That made my decision
easy. They were one of the best defensive teams last year, and that's what I
like to do — defend. Natural fit. It was easy for me to just come in and fit
right in and not try to step on anyone’s toes. When I talk to most of the
young guys, it's about defense, them helping me and what I see and they don't
see, and I'm telling them. Everybody is eager to learn, I would say.
年轻的核心。他们大部分都是去年留队的球员，只增加了一些新面孔。但是他们的核心已
经彼此相信并互相信任。看着他们的比赛，没有自私的表现。对于一支年轻的球队能够如
此迅速成长，这说明了很多，关于他们和他们的组织。这让我的决定变得很简单。他们去
年是联盟中最好的防守球队之一，而防守正是我喜欢做的事情。很自然的契合。我很容易
就能融入，不会试图踩到任何人的地雷。当我与大多数年轻球员交谈时，话题都是防守，
让他们帮助我，看看我看到的他们没注意到的东西，然后我告诉他们。他们都很渴望学习
。
Do they know what they don't know?
你觉得他们知道自己还不知道什么吗？
That's a hard question. Everyone listens. Everyone is always entitled to
their opinion, but most of the young guys here, they listen. They're
coachable. A lot of young guys aren’t coachable, think they know everything,
but I like that everybody listens to everybody. We have a dialogue with each
other. One thing we wrote down at the start of training camp is communication.
There's always room for improvement, but seeing everybody talk to each other,
that’s going to help us out more on the court and off the court, just
hanging around each other.
这是一个难回答的问题。每个人都在听。每个人都有自己的意见，但这里的大多数年轻球
员都很愿意听。他们愿意接受指导。很多年轻球员不愿意听，觉得自己什么都懂，但我
喜欢这里的每个人都听每个人说话。我们彼此之间有对话。我们在训练营开始时写下了一
件事，那就是沟通。当然，总有提升的空间，但看到每个人彼此交谈，这将在场上场下
都帮助我们。
What do you try to pour into Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner?
你试着对 Paolo Banchero 和 Franz Wagner 传达些什么？
For me, just try to get them easier shots where they don't have to waste as
much energy offensively. Down the stretch, the ball’s going to be in their
hands. For us, as their teammates, (our job is) to find them easier shots
throughout the game. … I’m trying to get (Banchero) to see his window. It's
a small window that he has. That can turn into big windows.
Just playing with two championship teams, LeBron, Joki?, A.D., (Rajon) Rondo,
all them guys, Jamal … it’s spacing. They made an emphasis on that. The
better our spacing is, the better the offense will be. The more we can space
the ball, it’s harder to defend when the ball is moving. That's the hardest
thing.
Most of what I talk to him about, pretty much everybody about, is defense.
Offensively, I know they can hoop. They can play basketball. They can put it
in the basket. But a lot of players don’t like to defend. This is one team
(where) everyone loves to defend. Everyone wants to get out there.
对我来说，就是让他们在进攻端轻松得到得分机会，不用消耗太多体力。在关键时刻，球
会在他们手中。对于我们这些队友来说，（我们的工作是）在比赛过程中为他们创造更容
易的投篮机会……我试着让Banchero看到他的机会窗口。那是一个很小的窗口，但可以变
成很大的窗口。与两支冠军队伍一起比赛过，像LeBron、Jokic、AD、Rondo、Jamal……
他们都强调场上空间。我们的场上空间越好，进攻就会越流畅。当球在场上流动时，防守
起来会更难。这是最难的事情。大部分我与他们，几乎与每个人谈论的内容，都是关于防
守。进攻方面，我知道他们会打球。他们能打球，能把球投进。但很多球员不喜欢防守。
而这支球队，每个人都喜欢防守。每个人都想上场去防守。
They've been talking about Game 7 against Cleveland all summer.
他们整个夏天都在谈论与克里夫兰的第七场比赛。
I like that they have that mental in their head, that bad taste. In my opinion,
(they) should have won. Down the stretch, they made shots, and a lot of
mistakes started to happen. That's what this year, in training camp, we've
been talking about — communicating at both ends and focusing, locking down.
Being able to trust each other, knowing my teammate is in the right spot. We
can go as far as we can take ourselves if we just talk to each other and
communicate, stay together.
我喜欢他们有这种心态，记住那种失败的滋味。依我看，他们应该赢下比赛。比赛最后，
对手投进了关键球，我们开始犯了很多错误。这就是今年我们在训练营中讨论的——双方
沟通和专注，锁定目标。信任彼此，知道队友会在正确的地方。如果我们彼此沟通，团结
在一起，我们可以走得很远。
I remember when Detroit drafted you and how much Joe (Dumars) thought you fit
their mentality.
我记得底特律选中了你，Joe Dumars当时非常认为你符合他们的心态。
I haven't talked to him in a minute. I saw JD, saw his son, and we chopped
it up. Detroit gave me my opportunity. I’ll never forget that. I'll always
give props to Detroit. They started my career off, made me who I am, made me
humble. The love. And going into a team like that, the Bad Boys era, knowing
that history, getting an opportunity to play in The Palace before they changed
it. I had Chauncey Billups, Tayshaun Prince. I had a piece of the Bad Boys
that I played with. Rasheed (Wallace) was on our coaching staff. So, some of
that was still in there, that mentality. That kind of shaped me to this day,
that hustle mentality, that grit, just being hungry.
我已经有段时间没和他说话了。我看到JD，看到了他的儿子，我们聊了聊。底特律给了我
机会，我永远不会忘记。我会永远感激底特律。他们启动了我的职业生涯，塑造了现在的
我，让我谦卑。那份爱。进入那样一支球队，“坏孩子军团”的时代，了解那段历史，有
机会在他们换场馆之前在“宫殿”打球。我与Chauncey Billups、Tayshaun Prince一起
打过球。我有幸与“坏孩子军团”的成员一起打过球。Rasheed Wallace是我们的教练组
成员。所以，那种精神依然在场上，那种心态。那种拼搏精神，那种韧性，那种饥饿感塑
造了今天的我。
When you talk with a young guy, what do you tell him about how he can still
be here in 10 years?
当你与年轻球员交谈时，你会告诉他们如何在十年后仍然留在这里吗？
I try not to preach to them. Just tell them the more you can simplify this
game, the better it's going to be. Coaches, they throw a lot of stuff at you.
For me, I'm a great defender. If I know that's going to be a long run for me,
how can I simplify it while I'm here, but it's a shorter run? How can I break
this down where it will be simple for everybody? There's a lot of confusion
when coaches throw a lot of stuff at you. The more you can simplify it, being
patient and just staying after it … everybody wants to work, everyone wants
to be here, and that’s always good.
我尽量不去说教。只是告诉他们越能简化比赛，事情就会变得越好。教练们会向你灌输很
多东西。对我来说，我是一名出色的防守者。如果我知道这将是我长期发展的方向，我会
想着如何在这里简化这个过程，同时还保持短期的高效？如何把它分解成简单的步骤，让
每个人都能理解？当教练们向你灌输太多东西时，往往会让人困惑。越能简化，耐心点，
并坚持下去……每个人都想努力工作，每个人都想留在这里，这总是一件好事。
What are you gonna do after you’re done playing?
你退役后打算做什么？
Golf. I don’t even want to think about it. My wife, she wants me to play 20
years.
打高尔夫。我甚至不想去想这个问题。我的妻子，她希望我能打到20年。
Twenty?
二十年？
That's what she’s seen. She says I've got it in me. She must see something
I don’t see. I told her we’ll reconvene in Year 15. We'll see how I feel
then.
那是她看到的。她说我能做到。她一定看到了我没看到的东西。我告诉她，我们等到第15
年再讨论。到时候我们再看看我感觉如何。
