今天賽後, Lue接受採訪時對於騎士打出不同態度表示..
“It wasn’t because of the guys,” Lue said. “From losing, your spirits are
always going to be down. But, tonight I thought our spirits were great. We
were playing hard and we competed. And that’s what we had to see from this
team. It wasn’t about the other guys, it was about we’re losing, so,
everyone’s spirits were down, including mine.”
不是因為那些球員, 輸球時心情總是低落的, 但今晚我覺得我們的心態很棒
我們很努力打球我們也有拼勁, 這就是我們這支新球隊要看的重點
真的跟其他球員無關, 之前我們一直在輸, 每個人的情緒都很低落, 包括我的也是

“At the end of the day, I just like being around guys who want to play and
work hard,” said LeBron James, who finished with 24 points, 10 assists, and
eight rebounds in three quarters. “I know I demand a lot of excellence out
of my teammates but I demand out of myself too. And we on the road, we want
to try and play as well as we can, and we want to try to put ourselves in
contention to try to compete for another championship, and that’s my mindset.

三節內拿下24分10助攻8籃板的詹皇則說
"說到最後, 我單純的喜歡圍繞在這些想要打球也想要努力拼鬥的人身邊
我知道我向隊友們要求了很多的出色表現, 但我同時也這樣要求自己
我們正在進行客場作戰, 我們想要盡可能的試著打出最好表現
我們也想試著去競爭另一座總冠軍, 這就是我心裡的想法

Kyle Korver, on his way out of the locker room Sunday, said “this is going
to be fun again.”

帥哥射手表示:"我們的比賽將又會變得好看"

J.R. Smith said “we looked phenomenal.”

丁尺則說:"我們看起來驚人的讚~"

“ know the guys that’s here, they’re very excited about this opportunity,
and it’s my job to keep them excited about being here,” James said. “They’
re joining something that obviously the last couple months hasn’t been what
we expected, but over the course of the last four years since I came back has
been really good basketball. So it’s my job as the leader of this team to
make sure that I acclimate the new four guys to be around a culture that’s
built on winning and practicing championship habits, so. That’s it.”

詹皇接回mic又說..
"在這邊的夥伴, 對於能有這機會他們都很興奮
讓他們在這邊能持續感受到興奮是我的責任所在
新夥伴的加盟是這幾個月來預料之外的事
但四年前我重返騎士後, 帶來了真正好的籃球風格
身為騎士的領袖, 確保四名新夥伴都能適應我們固有的贏家心態跟爭冠習性
是我當仁不讓的職責, 就這樣

Clarkson was 7-of-11 shooting and 3-of-4 on 3s. He entered play second in the
NBA in bench scoring.
“LeBron even said before the game, ‘There ain’t no such thing as a
mistake, bro,’” Clarkson said. “Just told me to go out there and hoop. ‘
No such thing as a mistake. Go play free and do what y’all do.’”

Lue said he spoke to Clarkson’s former coaches in L.A. -- Lue’s friends
Luke Walton and assistant Bryan Shaw -- to find out about Clarkson as a
defender.
“They said he can stay in front of the basketball, gets into the pick and
roll, so, just seeing those two guys on the ball really helped us out,” Lue
said.

本場11投7中包含三分4中3的JC表示..
"LeBron賽前跟我說, '兄弟, 沒什麼是不能做的'
他只跟我說上場後就放開去打吧, 平常怎麼打就怎麼打吧"

Lue也跟湖人的兩名教練聊過JC, 了解到JC的防守功力
Lue說:"他們告訴我JC可以緊貼在運球者身前, 能阻斷對方的擋拆
能有JC跟G.Hill真的對我們幫助很大"

“I’m different than all the other guys who have been here,” Hill said. “I
’m not the same. I don’t try to be them. I respect all them. All I know is I
’m going to come here play the right way, I’m going to play defense and I’
m going to try win basketball games and that’s all that matters.”

本場對Celtics的比賽, 一開始去盯防KI的就是Hill, 他說..
"我跟曾在這位置上的球員們都不一樣, 我不會試著去成為他們, 我敬重他們
我知道的就是我來這邊是來打出正確的方式
是來做好防守, 是來試著贏下球賽的, 這就是我的重點"

James said of Hill: “I think George Hill’s basketball IQ complements me. Guy
’s been in so many big games. You can tell he knows how to play the game.
Smart, big, physical, so you can definitely tell that we’re going to work
well together.”

詹皇表示:"G.Hill的球商跟我很搭, 他有過許多大比賽的經驗
你看得出來他知道如何打好比賽, 聰明, 又高又壯
所以你絕對能看出來我們將會一起打得很好"

It’s pretty clear James gave some kind of pre-game speech, not just to
Clarkson but to at least all the new guys. Maybe everyone.

“Like LeBron said before the game who cares about mistakes? Who cares about
missed shots? Who cares about all that stuff?” Hill said. “We weren’t here
to be perfect. There was no judgement out there today.”

顯然的詹皇在賽前演講了些什麼, 不僅是對JC或所有新夥伴, 搞不好是全員
Hill說.."像是LBJ賽前說了別在乎失誤, 別在乎失投, 別去在乎那些東西
我們不是為了完美而齊聚在此的, 今天我們不做任何批判"

Smith told cleveland.com he was worried about being traded, especially when
all six players dealt were gone before 2 p.m.

“There was still an hour left before the deadline, I thought for sure I
could be traded,” Smith said.

So on Sunday, not only did Smith pour in 15 points and threes, but he went
nuts on Aron Baynes with a dunk in the first quarter that he hasn’t pulled
off in years.

“JR gave us something tonight to let us know that he’s still here,” James
said.

丁尺表示交易大限前一小時他覺得自己好像會被賣走; 今天他拿下15分並有灌籃好表現
詹皇說:"丁尺今晚讓我們知道他仍然會留在騎士"

James banged knee with Baynes in the first quarter and had to come out of the
game. Baynes is 6-10 and weighs 265 pounds.

“Well Baynes is a big boy,” James said. “In his off time he should be on
Game of Thrones, him and Steven Adams. And I gotta see him (Adams) next.”

The Cavs play the Thunder Tuesday in the last game before the All-Star break.

首節LBJ因為跟Baynes對撞膝蓋跪地後暫時離場, Baynes 6'10"高265磅重
詹皇說:"他真是個巨漢, 沒比賽時他跟Steve Adams應該要去客串一下冰與火之歌的
好吧, 下一場我就要去面對Adams了"
