https://reurl.cc/paG8Wb
On the most recent episode of the popular podcast, James lamented the 2025 NBA
Finals coverage:
LBJ對今年NBA總冠軍戰的相關報導感到遺憾
“Yeah, absolutely and we all have a story. And there’s a lot of stories that
can be told on the OKC roster and the Pacers roster.
談到社群媒體對於小市場球隊的影響，LBJ：絕對如此，每個人都有自己的故事。雷霆和
溜馬的陣容中有很多值得講述的故事。
Do the guys that preach our game want to…do they want to do the homework and
take the time out to actually tell these stories? And it doesn’t seem that wa
y. It’s just what can I say without truth or without knowledge or this is wha
t I wanna say and there’s no accountability behind it. I think that now goes
to our fans.
那些宣揚我們比賽的人是否願意花時間去深入了解並講述這些故事呢？似乎他們並不願意
。他們只是在沒有事實依據或不了解情況的前提下發表言論，而且沒有任何責任感，我認
為現在這已經影響到了我們的球迷。
We have to protect our players and protect our product. The one thing that I k
now for sure when it comes to players…before it was like I couldn’t be seen
or I wouldn’t be heard if I was in a small market. I had to be in L.A., I had
to be in New York, I had to be in Chicago, I had to be in certain markets in
order to be seen, in order to be heard. Well, that’s not the case now. The ca
se now with social media, with every single day around the clock coverage of o
ur game, good or bad, you could perform anywhere. You could perform anywhere a
nd be great anywhere.
我們必須保護我們的球員和我們的產品。關於球員，過去的情況是，如果我在小市場球隊
，我就不會被看到或聽到。我必須在洛杉磯、紐約、芝加哥或其他一些大市場才能獲得關
注。但現在情況不同了。有了社群媒體和全天候的比賽報導，無論好壞，你可以在任何地
方表現出色，你可以在任何地方成為偉大的球員。
So the whole notion of I don’t wanna play in a small market or you shouldn’t
be in a small market, that is gone. That is flushed down the toilet because o
bviously we look at now we have the Indiana Pacers and the Oklahoma City Thund
er representing the NBA Finals. That narrative is gone.
所以，那種‘我不想在小市場打球’或‘你不應該在小市場打球’的想法已經過時了。這
種觀念已經被徹底摒棄了，我們現在看到的是，溜馬和雷霆進入了NBA總決賽，這個舊有
的說法已經不成立了。
We need to teach the game. We need to talk about the game, but also have a bet
ter understanding of storytelling. I think that just helps our product and it
helps our fans relate to the players that they…outside the market of OKC or o
utside the market of Indiana maybe they don’t know a lot about these guys.”
我們需要更好地教授和談論比賽，同時也要更好地講述故事，這樣有助於提升我們的產品
，並幫助球迷更好地了解他們所支持的球員。
