LeBron and Dan Gilbert — are square. They both needed each other to get where t
hey wanted to go. Gilbert needed LeBron to win a championship, and LeBron needed
Gilbert to spend enough to make delivering a championship here feasible. Each m
an delivered. They owe each other nothing.
詹姆斯和Gilbert,他们曾经有着共同的利益。 他们相互需要来实现自己的目标。 Gilbert
需要詹姆斯来赢得冠军,而詹姆斯需要Gilbert花足够的钱来组建一支争冠球队。 他们每个
人都尽力了,因此他们现在已经互不相欠。
For multiple reasons, I tend to believe James will retire with the Lakers, but n
ever say never. Could he come back and spend his final year in Cleveland? Sure,
I suppose. His 17-year-old son Bronny’s basketball future plays a role in this
as well. LeBron has not hidden the fact he’d love to play with his son in the N
BA. He joked with me once, “I’d play one game (with Bronny) and retire.”
我倾向于认为詹姆斯会留在湖人退役,但是,凡事没有一定,他有可能在职业生涯的最后一
个赛季回到骑士队吗? 当然,不是没可能的。 他17岁的儿子布朗尼在他目前的篮球生涯中
会扮演关键的角色。 詹姆斯从不隐瞒他想和自己的儿子在NBA打球的事实。 他曾和我开玩
笑说,我想和布朗尼打一场比赛,然后退役。
I’ll add another layer to this: When James returned the first time, I was told
by multiple people that he “doesn’t like playing with kids.” You saw after he
got here how fast the roster turned from young to old. Now look at the Lakers r
oster. James likes playing with vets who understand the game. This Cavs team is
uber-talented, but it’s also uber-young.
当詹姆斯上次回到骑士时,很多人告诉我,他不喜欢和孩子一起打球。 你可以看到,詹姆
斯来到球队之后,我们的阵容从新人变成老将的速度有多快。你可以看看现在湖人的名单,
同样的道理,詹姆斯喜欢和那些了解比赛的老将一起打球。虽然现在这支骑士队才华横溢,
但同时他们太年轻了。
For 20 years, the Cavs’ identity was tethered to LeBron. “We have to tank and
be bad enough to possibly draft him. … We got him, now we have to win. … Oh no
, we lost him. We have to get him back. … We got him back. Now we have to win a
championship.
在过去的20年,骑士都与詹姆斯紧密联系在一起。我们必须摆烂,只要我们足够坦,我们就
能选到詹姆斯...我们得到了詹姆斯,现在我们必须要赢球...哦不,我们失去了詹姆斯,我
们必须把他找回来...他回来了,现在我们必须夺冠。
Two decades of that. It’s the only time in professional sports I can recall a f
ranchise being obsessed with a player like that, and for good reason. He’s one
of the best. But the Cavs knew when LeBron left in 2018 that he couldn’t be the
plan anymore, and they delivered faster than anyone thought possible. If LeBron
wanted to return for a third tour at the end, fine. But I don’t think anyone a
t Cleveland Clinic Courts is worried about that right now.
二十年来,这一点始终没变。在职业体育中我不记得还有哪支球队如此痴迷于一个球员。但
这是有理由的,他是最好的球员之一。但是,当詹姆斯在2018年离开时,骑士队知道詹姆斯
已无法再成为他们规划中的一员了,因此他们重建的速度比任何人想像得都快。如果詹姆斯
想回到骑士进行他的退役巡演,很好。但我不认为骑士队的任何人现在会担心这个问题。
