Charles Barkley says ring wouldn't count had he won championship with Rockets
Charles Barkley說 若那時他在火箭拿下冠軍的話 那戒指不算
Charles Barkley rarely holds back.
Charles Barkley很少在客氣的。
This week was no exception during an appearance on Zach Lowe’s “The Lowe
Post” podcast. Barkley spoke candidly while rehashing some of the stories
and controversies from his always-interesting NBA career.
這周他上了Zach Lowe的Podcast當然也不例外。他坦率的講到他有趣的NBA生涯裡一些故事
以及爭議。
He told Lowe that had he won a title teaming up Hakeem Olajuwon and Clyde
Drexler on the Houston Rockets, he wouldn’t have counted it in his record
book.
他說若他在火箭跟Hakeem Olajuwon跟Clyde Drexler組隊拿下冠軍的話，這冠軍戒他自己
是不會去算的。
“I wouldn’t even have counted that as a championship,” Barkley said. “I’
m not gonna lie. Me and Karl Malone. If he had won a championship with the
Lakers, that doesn’t count. That doesn’t count.”
「我甚至不會把那算是冠軍，」Barkley說。「我是不會說謊的，我跟Karl Malone，若是
Malone跟湖人拿下冠軍的話，那冠軍不算，不算。」
Barkley made the proclamation when Lowe pressed him about criticism of Kevin
Durant teaming up with the Golden State Warriors team he couldn’t beat in
the playoffs to win his NBA championships.
當Lowe要求他對Kevin Durant加入了他在季後賽無法擊敗的勇士拿到冠軍後，Barkley有所
批評這件事，作了陳述。
“I’m never gonna be happy with that,” Barkley said of Durant’s decision
to leave Oklahoma City. “When I was going to demand to get traded, I didn’t
say I wanted to play in Chicago, Boston or the Lakers. I just wanted to go to
a team where I had a chance to compete.”
「我對那件事永遠不會覺得開心的，」Barkley講到KD離開雷霆的決定。「那時當我提出交
易的要求時，我不會說我想去公牛，賽提或是湖人。我只想要去一支我有機會可以競爭的
球隊。」
Barkley joining the Rockets, of course, was an entirely different situation
than Durant’s. Barkley, Olajuwon and Drexler were all on the downside of
their careers during Barkley’s tenure in Houston. As was Scottie Pippen when
he joined in 1998. Durant joined an all-time juggernaut at the peak of its
championship prowess while he was in his prime.
當然，Barkley加入火箭跟KD的狀況是完全的不同。當Barkley在火箭時期，Olajuwon跟
Drexler那時的職業生涯已經是在走下坡，1998年加入的Scottie Pippen也是一樣。而KD加
入的是一支史上最強的隊伍，而KD正是在他生涯的顛峰期。
Had the Rockets advanced to the Finals and beat the Chicago Bulls after
Barkley joined Houston via a trade in 1996 with the Phoenix Suns, it would
have been significantly more impressive.
在1996年Barkley離開太陽經由交易加入火箭，若火箭真的打進總冠也擊敗公牛的話，這情
節將會更令人印象深刻。
But they didn’t, and Barkley still doesn’t have a ring to count or discount.
但是他們沒有，所以Barkley也沒有一枚戒指可以去讓他算或不算。
Barkley also talked with Lowe about the time he broke a guy’s nose in a
Milwaukee street fight after a 1991 game against the Bucks and how he played
an NBA game drunk after learning his trade from the Philadelphia 76ers to the
Los Angeles Lakers fell through.
Barkley也在節目上說到在1991年他跟公鹿比賽後他在密爾瓦基的街上打斷一個人的鼻樑，
以及那時他在得知那樁把他從76人交易到湖人沒成後他是喝醉上場比賽的。
He’s told those stories before. But even in reruns, Barkley’s almost always
interesting.
即使他這些故事以前都講過了，但是再聽他講，還是一直都很有趣的。
