Adam Silver 'very confident' Warriors will quickly return to title contention
Adam Silver很有信心 勇士很快就會重返爭冠
It has been nearly eight months since the last time the Warriors played a
game, and considerably longer than that since the last time they could be
considered legitimate contenders. However, with only a couple weeks to go
until the 2020 draft, NBA commissioner Adam Silver doesn't think it'll take
long for Golden State to return to that status.
距離上次勇士打比賽已經快8個月了，距離他們最近一次被認為有爭冠能力的時間還要長。
不過，再幾個禮拜就選秀，聯盟主席Adam Silver不認為勇士還會要花很長的時間才會重返
榮耀。
"I’m very confident that they’ll return to contention quickly," Silver told
the San Francisco Chronicle's Connor Letourneau. "I look at the quality of
their management. Of course, the quality of the players that are currently on
their roster. I have no reason to believe they won’t be back as a top-tier
team in the NBA."
「我非常有信心，他們很快就會重返爭冠，」Silver跟舊金山報紙記者Connor Letourneau
說。「我看到他們管理階層的品質，當然包括他們現在球員名單上球員品質，我沒有理由
認為他們不會重回到聯盟頂尖球隊的位置。」
The Warriors are coming off a season in which they posted their worst winning
percentage in 19 years. But considering Klay Thompson missed all of it and
Steph Curry was limited to just five games due to injury, there is every
reason to believe it was an outlier. The Splash Brothers and Draymond Green
served as the foundation of Golden State's dynasty, and as long as they're
around and healthy, it has a chance of persisting.
這一季勇士打出過去19年以來最糟的勝率，不過若是考慮到K湯整季報銷以及Curry因傷只
打了五場比賽的話，很有理由相信這不是個常態。過去勇士王朝靠著浪花兄弟跟嘴綠為基
礎，只要他們在場而且健康的話，機會是有的。
The Nov. 18 draft likely will play a crucial role in whether or not the
Warriors fulfill Silver's expectations. With the No. 2 overall pick, Golden
State could add a tremendous young talent, or potentially involve it in a
trade to acquire a difference-maker.
11/18號的選秀將會扮演勇士能否達到主席Silver的預期的重要角色。手上握有第二順位簽
的勇士，有機會加入極佳的年輕潛力新秀，也可能可以拿去交易來扮演場上決定性人物的
球員。
Andrew Wiggins also will have a determining impact on the Warriors' ceiling.
If he can live up to his vast potential, they already have the fourth star
they're looking for. Of course, if the Warriors acquire one in a trade, that
almost certainly means Wiggins is headed the other way.
圍巾也會決定勇士的天花板到底會有多高。若是他真的發揮了他的天賦，那勇士就會有了
第四位他們找很久的明星。當然，若是勇士交易來了另外一個明星，這幾乎代表了他們就
會跟圍巾分道揚鑣。
The Warriors have had a historically long wait in between seasons. But when
it finally comes to an end, they could be right back at or near the top of
the ultra-competitive Western Conference.
勇士在這個休賽季等得破歷史的久，但是當這等待終於結束時，他們可能很快就會坐上，
或者接近這非常競爭的西區王座。
