Silver：你無法挑戰沒有吹罰的球，如果每個沒有吹罰的瞬間都可以挑戰，那麼比賽將會非
常混亂。
In the wake of a high-profile missed call that went against Los Angeles Lakers s
uperstar LeBron James last month, NBA commissioner Adam Silver said officials ar
e "absolutely held accountable" and disciplined for making such errors.
上個月，洛杉磯湖人隊的超級巨星勒布朗·詹姆斯遭遇一次明顯的漏判的事件後，NBA總裁Si
lver表示，裁判必須為此類錯誤負起責任並接受紀律處分。
"We don't publicize discipline for officials. We don't think that will be approp
riate," Silver said Friday in an interview with ESPN's Sage Steele on SportsCent
er. "But their assignments are affected by the quality of their calls, whether o
r not they progress into the playoffs and then round by round is impacted by the
accuracy of their calls and their demeanor on the floor. So there is a system f
or overseeing and making those judgements about officials. But more to your earl
ier point about getting the calls right, that's again not a new issue.
我們不公開處分的細節，我們認為這是不適當的。但他們的場次安排會受到吹判的好壞影響
到，無論他們吹不吹季後賽，每一輪都會受到他們吹判的準確性和場上的態度而受到影響。
因此，有一個監管體系來對裁判進行評估和判斷。但更重要的是，關於做出正確判斷的問題
，這並不是一個新問題。
James was fouled in the closing seconds of a tie game between the Lakers and Bos
ton Celtics on Jan. 28, but the foul was not called. Boston went on to win in ov
ertime.
1月28日，詹姆斯和塞爾提克隊比賽的最後幾秒被犯規，但犯規沒有被吹罰。隨後比賽進入
延長賽，最終塞爾提克隊獲勝。
The NBA's referees union posted a public apology a day later on its official Twi
tter account for getting the call wrong. One of the criticisms of how the moment
played out was that there was no mechanism available to the referees to adjust
the call, something Silver said the league needs to look at.
裁判公會隔天在官方推特的頁面上為錯誤的判罰公開道歉。對於此事件的批評之一是，裁判
沒有一套可用的機制來調整判決，Silver說聯盟需要研究這個問題。
"I know some people in that particular call you mentioned in that Celtics-Lakers
game were upset that there was no opportunity for replay," Silver said. "Many p
eople focused on the coach not having another challenge. But remember in our lea
gue, you can't challenge a non-call. And there's a lot of difficulty there when
you get into non-call. You could suggest every moment of a game is a non-call wh
en a call isn't being made in a way.
Silver說：我知道在你提到的那次塞爾提克和湖人的比賽中，有些人對於沒有審查回放的機
會感到不滿。許多人關注的是教練沒有另外的挑戰機會。但是請記住，在我們的聯盟中，你
不能挑戰沒有響哨的情況。當涉及到沒有響哨的問題時，就會有很多困難。Silver舉例說，
在一個比賽中，如果每個沒有吹罰的瞬間都可以挑戰，那麼比賽將會非常混亂。
But so what's the beginning and the end of the play? And if indeed the officials
missed the foul but then the other team is saying, well, go back 15 seconds, th
ey missed something else there, it's not an easy issue, but it's something we're
going to look at because my personal view is I don't mind the challenge system
but also think the ultimate goal is to get it right, not put the pressure on the
coach in terms of that additional tactic on using their challenge appropriately
."
所以那個回合要算什麼時候是開始？什麼時候算是結束？如果裁判漏吹了一個犯規，然後另
一支球隊說往回15秒，剛才那裡也漏了一個哨，這就不是一件簡單的事情了。從我個人而言
，我並不介意挑戰系統的存在，但我也認為，我們的終極目標是把比賽搞對。而不是把壓力
放在教練身上，讓他們把使用挑戰變成另一種策略。
