記者提問的問題：
Could you have imagined by the time you came back uh… Kyrie and Kevin would be gone?
你有沒有想過回來之後KI跟KD都不在了？
鬍子馬上點頭：
Yeah.
有啊。
記者有點意外：
Really?
真假？
鬍子：
I mean I didn’t just.. I didn’t just have to leave for no reason you know what I mean? Like I was… I was in a really good place in Houston, obviously we didn’t have a chance to win the championship but I was comfortable you know what i mean, so for me to up and leave my family and you know what I mean all things that I created there to come… to… Brooklyn for about a year and a half to try to get up and leave, it was for a reason. You know what I mean so uh… But I’m happy for the organization of
what they’ve… what they’ve got back, they got some really good pieces.
你知道我離開不是沒有原因的。我在休士頓過的不錯，當然我們不可能奪冠但我蠻舒適的，所以說我離開我的家人還有我在那裡打造的一切跑到布魯克林待了一年半就走人，是有原因的。你知道嗎 呃 但我替(籃網)球團拿回到的感到挺開心的，他們得到了不錯的東西。
記者2 ：
James how would you sum up now that Kevin and Kyrie are gone… you left obviously last year, y’all’s time together here?
現在KD跟KI離開了，你會怎麼總結你們三個一起在這裡的時間？
鬍子：
Uh… frustrating you know what I mean, it’s a lot of what ifs you know what I mean. I think when you play less than 20 games together you know what I mean so… it’s a little bit frustrating you know what I mean but… it is what it is uh… hopefully everybody’s in a good place now and we can move on.
呃 讓人沮喪你知道嗎？很多的如果 當你(我)們只一起打了不到20場，就讓人有點灰心。但 就是這樣了 最好就是現在大家都到了好的地方（也可以翻譯成對現在的狀況感到滿意），然後我們都可以向前看。
畫面切掉
鬍子：
There’s a lot of dysfunction uhh…… period. You know what I mean like… but there’s a lotta internal things that Im not… you feel me, Im not gonna ever just say or put in the media or do anything and… that was one of the reasons why you know what I mean I chose to make my decision. But uh now fast forward (to) today, I don’t look like the crazy one you know what I mean I don’t look like the guy that… the quitter or whatever you know what I mean the uh media want to call me like I knew what was
going on and I just decided to… Hey I’m not good for this like I don’t wanna deal with that you know, I wanna play basketball and have fun and enjoy doing it and uh… fast forward to today they got a whole new roster huh.
有蠻多障礙的（Dysfunction是群體性的用法） 就這樣。你知道嗎，有很多內部的事情我永遠都不會說，不會告訴媒體或去做些什麼，那是讓我做出決定的原因之一。時至今日，我看起來不像那個媒體口中瘋掉的那個你知道嗎？或者是擺爛的還是啥。我知道什麼正在發生然後我就決定，嘿，我不能接受，我不想去處理/面對那些你知道嗎？我只想開心的享受打球然後呃 快轉到今天，他們名單都不一樣了呵
You know what I mean?
