翻譯若有錯請不吝指正來源: The Mercury News 網址: https://tinyurl.com/ybfkneww Bob Myers on DeMarcus Cousins: “The goal for us is to have him in the playoffs” Myers講到Cousins：「我們的目標是在季後賽的時候有他。」 LAS VEGAS – The Warriors carve out nearly an infinite amount of contingency plans based on best-case and worst-case scenarios. Incidentally, acquiring All-Star center DeMarcus Cousins at the taxpayer mid-level exception ($5.3 million) did not represent any of those contingency plans. 勇士通常會準備無數個應變計畫來應付最好或是最糟的狀況，而以中產特例拿到中鋒 Cousins絕對不是這些應變計畫之一。 Even if the Warriors have become an embarrassment of riches with a new starting lineup that has combined for 25 NBA All-Star appearances, they are wrestling with a question that partly explains why Cousins became available in the first place. 即使現在勇士擁有了合計有25次全明星出賽的先發的豪華陣容，他們仍然有個難解的問題，那也部分解釋了為何Cousins可以是簽的到的原因。 When will Cousins return from a left Achilles tendon injury? 到底Cousins甚麼時候可以從阿基里斯腱傷後復出呢？ “The goal for us is to have him in the playoffs,” Myers said at halftime of the Warriors’ 87-81 summer-league win on Sunday over the Houston Rockets. “ That doesn’t mean we’ll wait until the playoffs. When he’s ready to play, he’ll play. We just don’t know when that will be.” 「我們的目標是要在季後賽的時候有他上場，」Myers在夏聯勇士對火箭時的中場說到。「那不代表我們會等到季後賽才讓他上場。當他可以打得時候，我們就會讓他上場，我們只是還不知道那個時間會是甚麼時候。」 The Warriors might have some clarity soon. 勇士可能很快會知道。 Myers said that Cousins plans to get reevaluated later this month on his progress since sustaining the injury with the New Orleans Pelicans on Jan. 26 against Houston. Shortly after the Warriors agreed to a deal with Cousins last Monday, Cousins told The Undefeated he planned to return in time for training camp in late September. Shortly after signing his contract in Las Vegas on Friday, though, Cousins changed his message that fits more with what the Warriors want. Myers說Cousins計畫是在這個月底要再次評估復原的狀況。雖然在勇士同意簽下Cousins 後，Cousins告訴媒體他計畫在九月的訓練營回歸，但是在星期五正式簽約之後，Cousins 改變了說法，比較接近勇士想要的狀況。 “I think the surgery is anywhere from eight to ten months from the time you have it,” Myers said. “For us, it won’t be, ‘We need you to get out there tonight. It’ll be ramping it up slowly. You can’t really tell with a guy until they get on the court and does certain things.” 「我想大概是手術後8到10個月比較合理，」Myers說。「對我們而言，不會就是『我們今晚需要你上場』那樣子處理，我們覺得，我們會等到看他在球場可以做到那些事情後才會知道。」 The Warriors have that luxury to wait because they have four other All-Stars in Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green. The Warriors did not immediately dismiss concerns about Cousins’ injury, though, when his representatives contacted Myers last Monday. Myers said his camp allowed the Warriors to look into Cousins’ medical records. 勇士可以有那樣的奢侈在等待上，因為他們有另外四個全明星，Curry，KD，KT跟Green。當上星期一Cousins的經紀人打電話給Myers時，勇士對Cousins的傷勢並不是全無疑慮。 None of which Myers expected to happen. The Warriors had simply hoped to bolster their wing depth and add youth to a roster by using their taxpayer midlevel exception and veteran’s minimum deals. Myers called Cousins’ initial contact “one of those unexpected moments.” Myers壓根沒預期到這件事情的發生。勇士本來只是想用中產特例跟老將底薪來增強側翼深度，跟年輕化。Myers稱Cousins打電話給他的是他人生中"幾個出乎意料的其中之一"。 “You never know how it’s going to culminate. We don’t have an established center so it actually worked out well,” Myers said. “The fact we can play some of the young guys heading into the season and waiting for them to get ready, it’s good for us.” 「永遠不知道事情會如何演變，我們沒有個很好的中鋒，所以最後的結果很好，」Myers 說。「所以我們可以讓我們一些年輕的球員開始打季初，然後可以讓他們成長，所以這對我們來說很好。」 After all, the Warriors allowed JaVale McGee to accept a veteran’s minimum deal with the Los Angeles Lakers. On Sunday, Zaza Pachuilia accepted a one-year, $2.6 million deal with the Detroit Pistons, while veteran David West likely faces retirement from a 15-year NBA career. And the Warriors plan to carve out larger roles next season for second-year forward Jordan Bell and third-year center Damian Jones. 畢竟，勇士讓McGee跟湖人用老將底薪簽約，星期天的時候Zaza跟活塞簽下一年260萬鎂的約，然後大衛西有可能在15年球季後要退休，而勇士計畫要在下季培養二年級生Jordan Bell跟三年級生Damian Jones，要讓他們承擔更多責任。 That leaves the Warriors almost done with free agency. Myers said he is “ pretty close” in finalizing the roster after also drafting Cincinnati guard/forward Jacob Evans and re-signing fourth-year forward Kevon Looney. The Warriors are expected to re-sign restricted free agent Patrick McCaw and sign forward Jonas Jerebko, who was recently waived by the Utah Jazz. The Warriors will then likely keep their last roster spot open for cost-saving and flexibility purposes. 所以勇士大概在FA市場就這樣了，Myers說完成最後手續簽下選秀的Jacob Evans以及四年級生Kevon Looney之後，他"差不多"就底定球員名單了。勇士被認為會再簽下Patrick MaCaw以及剛被爵士釋出的Jonas Jerebko。所以，勇士為了省錢以及保持將來操作上的彈性，會空下名單上最後一個位置， All of which leaves Myers confident about the moves even if Evans has averaged only 6.25 points on 32 percent shooting through four summer league games. 即使Evans目前在夏聯場均6.25分，命中率32趴，Myers對目前的勇士的操作很有信心。 “I would never compare Summer League to NBA basketball good or bad,” Myers said. “What this is is a good chance to get acclimated to the game. I decide to evaluate players three or four years after we enter the NBA. We’re all prone to being wrong whether we think someone is too good or not good enough in their first week of the NBA career. It’s not good for anyone else. We’re hoping and we think we can put him out there.” 「我不會拿夏聯的戰績去比較NBA季賽戰績的好或壞，」Myers說。「這只是讓球員去適應比賽，我們會在球員進到NBA三到四年才去評估球員。在球員進到NBA一個禮拜後就去評斷一個球員是好是壞通常都會是錯的，這對任何一個人來說都是不對的。我們希望，我們也認為我們他是夠實力上場的。」 And if that does not work out right away, well the Warriors can lean on five different All-Stars. And if Cousins is not immediately available, well, the Warriors still have four other All-Stars. 即使最後沒成功，勇士還有五個全明星啊！即使Cousins沒辦法馬上上場，勇士也還有四個全明星啊！ “If you asked me before,” Myers said, “I’m not going to say DeMarcus Cousins we thought was a reality going into free agency.” 「如果你早些時候問我，」Myers說。「我不會說我們認為Cousins會投身FA市場的~」 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 124.218.53.71 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/G-S-WARRIORS/M.1531141488.A.4C3.html
