https://twitter.com/TomerAzarly/status/1708980822500679975 "It was very easy. Money is never a driver for me in any aspect. Being in a place that was welcoming with open arms... It's a group of guys that I love being around... It was kind of a no-brained for me. Russell Westbrook on re-signing with Clippers. 被問到為甚麼跟快艇續約時，Russell Westbrook答:「這很簡單。錢從來就不是我的動力 來源。待在一個歡迎我的地方...這群人是我想要待在一起的人...這對我來說是完全不需 要思考的抉擇。」 https://x.com/TomerAzarly/status/1708986888449884242?s=20 I asked Russell Westbrook if this is a championship or bust year for him/Clippers: "That's not a real thing to me. That's a thing that people make up. You could accomplish a lot more. You can create brotherhood, you can learn a lot more about people.” Russ被問到今年是否對他/快艇是個沒有冠軍就是失敗的賽季時答道:「這對我來說不是很 重要。這是其他人編織出來的東西。你可以達成更多除了冠軍以外的成就。你可以結交兄 弟情;你可以對人認識更深。」 https://twitter.com/TomerAzarly/status/1708910498375418183 “We’ll see what happens at the end of the season. Maybe, maybe not.” Nicolas Batum on if this is his last season in the NBA. Nicolas Batum被問到今年是不是他的最後一季時回答:「我這季結束再看看。可能是，可 能也不是。」 https://twitter.com/TomerAzarly/status/1708906673761628431 Terance Mann on his role and where he fits best, with a laugh: “Wherever.” Terance Mann被問到他的角色以及他最適合哪裡，他笑著說:「任何位置。」 https://twitter.com/TomerAzarly/status/1708904943594394001 Norman Powell says having Mason Plumlee on this team will allow the Clippers to do a lot since he’s not a traditional center. “He can shoot from 15 feet, the 3-ball.” I asked if we’re going to see Mason shooting threes. Norm responded: “Oh yeah. You’ll see it. Corner 3 Mase!” Norman Powell說有Mason Plumlee在隊上可以讓快艇做很多事情因為他是非傳統中鋒。 「他可以在15尺以外投籃，三分!」 我問我們會不會真的看到Mason投三分。Norm回答:「當然阿。你會看到的。角落三分Mase! !!」 https://twitter.com/TomerAzarly/status/1708898940383600947 “There was no way I was gonna be able to return even if we made it to the Finals. It took a long time for me to get over the hump.” Paul George says it took him until June/July to get fully healthy and could not return to the Clippers lineup last season. 被問到去年六/七月讓Paul George無法歸隊的傷勢時(跟Dort出的意外):「就算我們打進決 賽我也不可能回來的。我消腫花了很長一段時間。」 https://twitter.com/TomerAzarly/status/1708901902300455374 Paul George was non-committal about playing for Team USA in the Paris Olympics next year. PG says it depends on how the Clippers season goes, how far they go, and how he’s feeling health-wise. Paul George 並沒有(NBA Central一堆都沒驗證過的新聞亂寫)想要為美國隊在巴黎奧運出 戰。 PG說他要看快艇的球季狀況如何，他們走了多遠，以及他的健康狀況。 https://twitter.com/TomerAzarly/status/1709006731156820138 Reporter: “If USA Basketball asks you, would you play in the 2024 Paris Olympics?” Kawhi Leonard: “Yeah, I wanted to play this summer, but I had other obligations. I would’ve had to leave early, so I wasn’t able to go. We’ll see what happens.” 記者:「如果美國隊徵召你，你會想要在2024巴黎奧運出戰嗎?」 Kawhi:「是的，我原本夏天想出戰，但我還有其他事情要做。我必須提早離開，所以我沒 辦法打。我們再看看。」 (OS:所以這傢伙也根本說他不打= =) https://twitter.com/TomerAzarly/status/1708888444783694194 When I asked about sacrificing, Tyronn Lue said the team-first approach is the priority. Ty also named Robert Covington as a guy who really sacrificed last season and was a pro the whole time. He adds: “He probably should’ve played more than he did, and that’s my fault.” 被問到犧牲時，Tyronn Lue說球隊永遠要放在首要的位置。Ty也說Robert Covington是上 一季那個真正犧牲最多且一直保持職業態度。他補充: 「他應該可以打更久的，而這是我的錯。」 (OS:已經懶得找藉口了嗎盧總) https://twitter.com/joeylinn_/status/1708896086272962615 Russell Westbrook was asked about his rock the baby celebration and said since other point guards don’t usually guard him, he makes sure to punish them when they do. Russ被問到他的搖寶寶慶祝時說對手的控衛通常不會負責守他，但當他們守到他的時候他 一定會懲罰他們。 https://twitter.com/joeylinn_/status/1708896458064429249 Russell Westbrook was asked how much longer he wants to play. “I’m still as fast as anybody, jump as high as anybody… I still see myself as an elite player in this league. I can do anything. I can guard the best.” Said he’s gonna keep playing until his can’t do that anymore. Russell Westbrook被問到他還想要打多久的時候回答:「我還是很快，跳得很高...我依然 覺得我還是聯盟裡的菁英球員。我可以做任何事。我可以守對方最好的球員。」 他說他會一直打到他打不動為止。 https://twitter.com/joeylinn_/status/1708909498474369435 Terance Mann on leaving to Intuit Dome: “Hopefully get treated better by the staff in the new place than in Staples or Crypto. Cuz they’re all Lakers fans.” Terance Mann被問到要搬家到Intuit Dome時回答:「我希望我們在那邊比起在史岱波/ Crypto.com Arena可以被工作人員更好的對待。他們全是湖人球迷。」 https://twitter.com/joeylinn_/status/1708899596876005865 Paul George on leaving to Intuit Dome next season: “I’m ready for us to have our own space.
