Nearly seven years after forming what was considered by many the first
super-team, LeBron James is staring at the prospect of being swept out of The
Finals for the second time in his career. The concept of a super-team that
James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh created in 2010 has been taken to another
level by this year’s Golden State Warriors, who are one win from completing
an unprecedented 16-0 playoff run.
從當年被人們認為是組成第一支超級球隊之時已經過去7年了，如今LBJ正可能面臨人生中
第二次在NBA總冠軍賽被橫掃。所謂超級球隊(或者你可以說是組隊)的概念，從2010年被
LBJ,Wade,Bosh建立後，到了現在又被這季的勇士隊提升了一個層級，而他們差1勝就能完
成戰無不勝的16-0季後賽旅程。
Much of Golden State’s dominance is credited to its signing of Kevin Durant
last summer, adding a four-time scoring champ to a team that had won a record
73 regular-season games in 2015-16. It’s a move many have compared to James’
famous 2010 decision that led him to South Beach.
勇士能達到這種統治力多數歸功於他們在去年夏天簽下了Kevin Durant，將一個4屆得分
王加進一個剛達成73勝紀錄的球隊。這是一個常被拿來跟LBJ相比的行為，也就是2010年
讓他把天賦帶去南灘的The Decision.
But James sees some differences between what he pulled off in 2010 and what
Durant opted to do last summer.
不過皇上認為他在2010年做的與Durant去年夏天選擇的有些不同。
“I don’t think our careers are the same as far as changing teams,” James
told reporters Thursday. “Their team was already kind of put together, and
you just implemented a guy that’s ready to sacrifice, a great talent, a guy
that’s willing to do whatever it takes to help the team win. But that team,
they knew what they were about, and he just had to come in and just do what
he had to do and that’s what he’s been doing.
「我不認為我們生涯就轉隊來說是相同的」，James在星期四這樣告訴記者。「他們的球
隊比較像是已經整合起來，而再加上一個願意犧牲的進來，一個有絕佳天賦，願意做任何
能幫助球隊贏球的事的傢伙。不過那個球隊，他們清楚它們是什麼，而他(指Durant)只需
要加入然後做他該做的事而已，而這正是他所做的。」
“For me, when I left [Cleveland] to go to Miami, we had to build something.
We brought in eight or nine guys, and we had to build something, and when I
came back here we had to build something again. But I can definitely
appreciate the simple fact of him either reshaping his game or just
sacrificing some shots here, sacrificing having the ball in his hands all the
time.”
「而我的話，當我離開克里夫蘭到邁阿密時，我們是要建立一些東西。我們帶來8,9個新
的球員，然後我們需要重構一些東西，而當我從邁阿密回來這裡，又重新建立一個新的環
境一次。不過我絕對欣賞Durant來到勇士隊做的事情，不論是重新塑造自己球風或是犧牲
一些出手權、犧牲能大半時間持球的權利。」

James also said the NBA isn’t the only league that has had to deal with
super-teams, pointing to the dominance Yankees and Cowboys enjoyed in the
1990s.
皇上也說NBA不是唯一需要面對超級球隊(組團大隊)的聯盟，指說洋基跟牛仔在1990年代
的統治力。
“Is it fair the New York Yankees in the ’90s added piece after piece? Is it
fair the Cowboys added Deion Sanders?” James asked.
「洋基在1990年代一波又一波補強是公平的嗎？牛仔加入Deion Sanders是公平的嗎？」
We likely haven’t seen the last of the Warriors’ dominance, either. Each
member of their Big 4 – Draymond Green, Steph Curry, Klay Thompson and
Durant – is younger than 30 and appears willing to sacrifice to keep the
Warriors’ dynasty intact.
我們很可能仍未看到勇士隊統治的終結。它們的四星，不管是Green,Curry,Thompson,
Durant都尚未滿30歲，而且似乎願意犧牲自己來維持勇士王朝的完整。
