So, Dave, as we look at the Sun's new lineup, how good are they now with Chris Paul?

那麼，戴夫，我們看看太陽的新陣容，他們現在的克里斯-保羅有多厲害？

I mean, listen, if we can see some further development from DeAndre eaten and he becomes a guy who fills in the dunker spot on offense and could be the recipient of those wonderful lobs that Chris Paul used to throw to Tyson Chandler back of the day, you see him hit another level to his game.

我的意思是，聽著，如果我們能看到德安東尼吃到一些進一步的發展，他成為一個在進攻中填補釦籃位置的傢伙，並且可以成為克里斯-保羅當年用來扔給泰森-錢德勒的那些精彩的球，你會看到他的比賽達到了另一個水準。

You have Devin Booker, one of the best shot creators in the league, who will have the benefit of the confidence that he built for himself down in Orlando and recognize that there really aren't people in this league that could stop me.

你有德文-布克，聯盟中最好的投籃創造者之一，他將受益於他在奧蘭多為自己建立的信心，並認識到這個聯盟中真的沒有人能阻止我。

If I can hit a game winner over Paul George and Kawhi Leonard at the same time, and he'll only get better and then you have guys, as I mentioned earlier in the show, Bridges, who I love, who was, you know, a championship type of guy at Villanova who comes in with three and D capabilities.

如果我可以在保羅-喬治和卡維-萊昂納德身上同時打出一個比賽勝利者，而且他只會變得更好，然後你有傢伙，正如我在節目中早些時候提到的那樣，布里奇斯，我很喜歡他，他是，你知道，在維拉諾瓦大學的冠軍類型的傢伙，他進來時有三和D能力。

We put in positions to maximize his game by someone like Chris Paul, who knows all the nuances that could make a player better.

And, you know, again, I It's not a lock to be a playoff team because it's the West.

而且，你知道，再一次，我... ...它不是一個鎖定的季後賽球隊，因為它是西部。

But they're a team that should be competitive every night.

但他們是一支應該每天晚上都有競爭力的球隊。

I like to move for Phoenix.

我喜歡為鳳凰城搬家。

I think it will help them chase the playoffs, so I'm gonna pick them to make the playoffs.

I think I'm a little wary of your turn, my turn with Chris, Paul and Devin Booker, but I bet they figure out some ways to keep it flowing.

我想我對輪到你，輪到我和克里斯，保羅和德文-布克的時候有點擔心，但我敢打賭，他們一定會想出一些辦法來保持它的流動。

Or do they have to spend whatever remaining cap flexibility they have?

還是說他們必須花掉剩餘的所有上限靈活性？

Whether that's the mid level exception and bringing back Dario Sarge or going under the cap Ex splurging on somebody?

不管是中產階級的特例，把達里奧-薩吉帶回來，還是在上限之下前去揮霍某人？

Do they have to spend that on defense?

Because I think offensively with Chris in there, particularly late in games, I think this has a chance to be a really good offensive team.

因為我認為在進攻上，有克里斯在，尤其是在比賽的最後階段，我認為這有機會成為一支非常好的進攻球隊。
