[花邊] Shaq訪問統整

作者：Mark Medina USA TODAY

1.Who's your NBA title favorite?
認為誰有機會奪冠

O'neal:The Lakers look good. Brooklyn looks good, question mark, question m
ark, question mark. You have to respect the champs (Milwaukee Bucks). Golden State is back. Don’t forget about Utah, Phoenix and Boston.
O'neal：湖人看起來很棒，籃網也是(???考量ki出賽的問題) ，你必須尊重公鹿(上季冠軍) ，勇士也回來了，但也別忘了爵士、太陽、賽提。

Every year we have six or seven teams that have a shot to win. But I think ifit all goes down the way the world would want it to, we would love to see Brooklyn versus the Lakers.
每年都會有6到7隻隊伍有機會奪冠，但我認為大家最想看湖人對上籃網吧。

2.Who do you have in a Nets-Lakers Finals?
假設總冠是湖人對籃網會選誰？

O’Neal: “I got the Lakers. They seem to be a little bit more together. For t
hem and Brooklyn, they have two issues. How are the egos managed and the health.
O'neal：我會選湖人，他們看起來更團結，但這兩隊的問題在自我與健康的部分

If everybody plays their role and everybody does what they’re supposed to do and everybody sacrifices and stays injury free, I think those two teams are the frontrunners and have the best shot.
如果每人維持角色定位，做自己該做的事、懂得犧牲且保持健康，我認為兩隊的確是奪冠熱門。

3.What are the question marks you have with Brooklyn?
你認為籃網的問題在哪邊？

O’Neal: “Is Kyrie going to play or not? That’s it. One question – are you
playing home games or not.”
O'neal：所以Ki要不要打？就這麼簡單
就一個問題：你到底會不會打？

4.Who do you have as your MVP?
你認為MVP應該會是誰？

O'neal: “Steph Curry. Look at what he did last year without Klay. He just kept playing. The way he shot the ball and how he shot the ball, I’ve always liked him.
O'neal：Curry，看看去年他身邊沒有Klay時的表現，他延續了之前的打法，看看他是如何投籃的，我一直都很喜歡他。

There’s always an argument on the TNT set that ‘You can’t be MVP if your te
am doesn’t have the best record.’ I’ve always found that wrong. I always fe
lt MVP was about singularity and not about team success. I’ve always like how Steph plays."
TNT電視台總是有一個說法，那就是你的球隊如果沒有好的成績，那你就不能當MVP。我一直覺得這是錯誤的想法，MVP的評選應該是獨立的，與球隊成功與否不完全相關，我一直都很喜歡Curry的打球方式。

5. Where do you stand on some players, such as Kyrie, Andrew Wiggins and Bradley Beal, declining to take the COVID-19 vaccine?
怎麼看幾位反對打疫苗的球員？

O’Neal: “In this line of work, sometimes you have to be selfless. The day I
decided it wasn’t all about me and it’s about us is the day I started winnin
g and really started dominating.
在這個情況下你必需無私點，不是因為
自己，而是為了讓球隊可以開始贏球並主宰比賽(後續也提到不想成為一個因為不能團結再一起而造成無法奪冠的人) 。

I understand the issues and all that. But I took the vaccine because I’m not trying to get my mother sick, or my sister or my brother or people around me. I know people say, ‘The vaccine came too fast and is it healthy.’ To each h
is own. But sometimes you have to think about the overall picture and you have to think about more than yourself.
我了解現在情況，但我打疫苗是因為不想讓媽媽、兄弟姐妹或周圍的人生病，我知道有些人會說：「啊～疫苗發展太快了啊～不一定有效啦！」之類的話，但有時你必需顧全大局，多為別人著想才對。

大致將訪問都翻到，也提到Simmons為何要如此生氣，應該好好跟76管理層談一下
