For the 22-year-old, a small market team is equally capable of winning a ring. 對於爵士後衛Donovan Mitchell來說，那種轉到大市場球隊然後希望可以拿到冠軍戒指的 想法是過譽的。22歲的他，認為小市場球隊也有同樣的能力可以拿冠軍。 Per Michael Scotto of The Athletic, Mitchell believes that it’s not about how big of a market a team is — but what the team brings to the table. He mentioned the likes of the Milwaukee Bucks, the Portland Trail Blazers, and the Oklahoma City Thunder — small market teams who are playoff contenders. 據The Athletic記者Michael Scotto報導，Mitchell認為拿冠軍跟市場大小無關--而是球 隊能端出怎樣的陣容出來。他提到像是密爾瓦基公鹿，波特蘭拓荒者，以及奧克拉荷馬雷 霆，都是小市場球隊，但都是季後賽競爭者。 “I don’t think you have to have a big market to win a championship. I think it’s all about what your team brings. 「我不認為一定得要是大市場球隊才能拿冠軍，而是球隊能拿出怎樣的表現才是重點。」 "I don’t think you really need a big market in order to be competitive. To be honest, I think it’s kind of overrated at times. I think the things that are precious to small market teams I think that’s what’s special and creates that culture, especially that we have in the locker room. Like I said, it takes one or two more pieces to get there.” 「我不認為為了要有競爭力，得要跑去大市場球隊。老實說，我覺得那有時是過譽的。我 認為對小市場球隊來說，更珍貴的是創造出來的球隊文化，尤其是像我們球隊。就像我之 前說的，需要有一兩位球員才能幫助球隊到達那種境界。」 The general understanding among outsiders is that a big market team attracts free agents — especially the elite ones. After all, major cities generally have a more robust economy, more infrastructure, and thus — more things to do. And players don’t just play for the city they represent. They actually live there. 至於外界的人的想法，大部分的人是認為大市場比較會吸引到FA--尤其是好的FA。畢竟， 大城市有滿滿的錢，基礎設施也比較完善，也因此--有比較多的事情可以做。畢竟球員不 單單只是為那個城市打球，他們真的也得住在那個城市裡。 In addition, bigger market teams can afford to go over the luxury tax. They don’t mind paying a hefty sum if it means adding another elite player to their roster. And history says that if a team is serious about winning, then they have to pay extra. Small market teams don’t have this leverage. 此外，大市場球隊也比較可以負擔多一點的豪華稅，若是可以簽到一位頂尖球員，他們一 點也不會介意多花錢。過往的歷史也是如此，若是一支球隊認真的想贏球，那就得多花點 銀子，而小市場球隊則是沒有那種優勢。 Given these facts and assumptions, it seems that bigger teams have an advantage in terms of money. But from Mitchell’s perspective, a small market team creates a special culture and intimacy. And this alone can attract that one player who can change the whole organization. 基於以上這些事實以及假設，似乎大市場球隊在錢上面有著較佳的優勢，但是從Mitchell 的角度來看，小市場球隊是創造出一種特殊的球隊文化以及親密感，而那就可以吸引到球 員，從而改變整個球團。 -- 五光十色 vs 鳥不生蛋 都擠? -- 標題 [公告] NBA 板 開始舉辦樂透! 4、雙十 = 兩隊四節打完107比107進入延長賽 開獎結果: 雙十 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 61.222.1.181 (臺灣) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/NBA/M.1559714942.A.43E.html
