It was the 2015 playoffs, Memphis, and the Trail Blazers' bus was idling
in front of the team hotel. A steady stream of players, coaches and support
staff had boarded for the past 20 minutes, yet for the last five minutes,
nary a soul had approached the steps.
西區決賽第一輪，拓荒者全員在過去20分鐘內陸續上車，但最後5分鐘沒人靠近車子
Still, the bus remained idling. Brake lights glowing. Engine chortling.
Exhaust billowing toward Beale Street.
And it remained idling ... and idling ... and idling ...
巴士還是一動也不動，好像在等誰，引擎陣陣的響，不斷向著Beale Street排氣
就在那空轉…在那空轉…在那空轉
.. for a good five minutes.
(空轉了)很好的五分鐘
