And this is the weirdest one.

而這是最奇怪的一個。

Yeah, by far, this is my 18th.

是啊，到目前為止，這是我的第18個。

So the first draft I did was the LeBron James draft in 2003, and I can't imagine what the players are going through.

所以我做的第一個選秀是2003年的勒布朗-詹姆斯選秀，我無法想象球員們正在經歷什麼。

I mean, I think it's difficult for the teams through the pandemic not having the normal information they'd have, but for the players they've they've waited a long time for this.

我的意思是，我認為通過大流行的球隊很難沒有正常的資訊，但對於球員來說，他們他們已經等了很長時間了。

And, uh and so they've got to be really excited as the draft approaches tonight.

而且，呃，所以他們已經得到了真正的興奮 因為今晚的選秀臨近。

Well, look, it's still a draft.

好吧，你看，它仍然是一個草案。

They're still seeing their MBA dreams come true.

他們還是看到了自己的MBA夢想成真。

And you guys were gonna be there in Bristol tonight with the commissioner to make all of that happen.

而你們今晚要去布里斯托爾和局長一起去完成這些事情。

We're just hours away, Jake.

我們只有幾個小時的路程，傑克。

Who is your best prospect as you sit there this afternoon?

當你今天下午坐在那裡時，誰是你最好的潛在客戶？

Well, on my best available list, I have Anthony Edwards of Georgia as the number one overall prospect, and it's primarily due to his athleticism advantage that he has over Lemelle a ball.

好吧，在我的最佳可用名單上，我把佐治亞州的安東尼-愛德華茲列為頭號總冠軍，這主要是由於他的運動能力優勢，他比萊梅爾有一個球。

Hey, Edwards is a big time scorer.

嘿，愛德華茲是個大得分手。

Hey, could score from all three levels.

嘿，可以從三個層面上得分。

He's got deep range he could score in the mid range, and he can really finish at the basket and in transition.

他有很深的射程，他可以在中距離得分，他真的可以在籃下和過渡中完成。

I think the issue you have with Anthony Edwards is Does he know how to play yet?

我覺得你對安東尼-愛德華茲的問題是他還不知道怎麼打球嗎？

Hey, take some questionable shots and I think he settles for jump shots too much.

嘿，採取一些有問題的投籃，我覺得他解決跳投太多。

And with that athleticism and body and handle and ability to finish, Hey needs to get to the rim or and get to the free throw line Mawr.

而在這種運動能力、身體和處理能力以及終結能力下，海哥需要上籃或和上罰球線毛爾。

And he needs to be a more focused defender.

而且他需要成為一個更加專注的後衛。

He's so long and athletic.

他長的好，運動能力強。

If he really sits down in the stance, nobody's gonna get by him.

如果他真的坐穩了姿態，誰也別想過他。

And I think he could be a now outstanding defender in the NBA.

而且我認為他可以成為現在NBA中的一名出色的後衛。

He just has to show the consistent want to throughout the course of the game.

他只需要在整個比賽過程中表現出一貫的想。

Well, look, you mentioned Lemelle a ball as Onda.

好吧，聽著，你把Lemelle提到了Onda的球。

Look.

你看

Some of our draft experts at ESPN have them as the number one prospect.

我們ESPN的一些選秀專家將他們列為頭號潛力股。

What do you think his ceiling is in the NBA?

你覺得他在NBA的上限是多少？

I think he could be really good.

我覺得他可能真的很厲害。

You know, Mike Schmitz, who is as good a talent evaluator is there is in the game, has him number one overall, and reasonable minds can differ on on this.

你知道，邁克・施米茨，他是一個很好的人才評估者，在比賽中，他是第一號，合理的想法可以在這一點上有不同的意見。

It's a close call.

險象環生。

But Lemelle, a ball is, is a wizard with the basketball, can really handle it and is actually, I think, a better passer than his brother Lonzo Ball, the number two pick a few years ago out of U C L.

但萊梅爾這個球是，是個籃球的奇才，真的能處理好，其實我覺得，他的傳球能力比他的哥哥朗佐-鮑爾，幾年前從U C L出來的二號秀強。

A.

A.

He doesn't shoot it well, but he's got terrific size, Uh, and he's got pretty good speed.

他的投籃能力不強，但他的身材很好，呃，他的速度也不錯。

But he changes pace with the ball he could get by people.

但他用球改變步伐，他可以從人身邊走過。

He finishes well.

他完成得很好。

He's very creative, but his ability to deliver the ball.

他很有創造力，但他的傳球能力。

But But he's another guy, Rachel, that that he's got a guard, somebody he doesn't defend.

但他是另一個人，瑞秋，他有一個後衛，一個他不保護的人。

And in fact, his brother Lonzo is a better shooter than he is.

而事實上，他的哥哥朗佐是一個比他更好的射手。

And Lonzo wouldn't classify him to Steph Curry or Klay Thompson or anything.

而朗佐也不會把他歸類到斯蒂芬-庫裡或者克雷-湯普森什麼的。

He didn't shoot it great, so he's gonna have to really improve that shot.

他的投籃水準不高，所以他必須要真正提高投籃水準。

But there's no denying with the basketball he is, he's truly outstanding.

但不可否認的是，以他的籃球，他確實很出色。

And where does James Wiseman fit in for you?

而詹姆斯-威斯曼又是你的什麼人呢？

Right?

對吧？

And I think, as the second best prospect.

而我認為，作為第二好的前景。

Frankly, uh, if this were five or 10 years ago, I really believe that James Wiseman would be the number one overall pick and we wouldn't even hesitate to say that, but the game's changed.

坦率地說，呃，如果這是5年或10年前，我真的相信，詹姆斯-威斯曼將是頭號總冠軍，我們甚至會毫不猶豫地說，但遊戲的變化。

And Mike Schmidt says, I think accurately said It's almost like there.

而邁克-施密特說，我認為準確地說，這幾乎是像有。

He's a running back in the NFL now because the game's changed so much.

他現在是NFL的跑衛，因為比賽的變化太大了。

But he's a Chris Bosch type player.

但他是Chris Bosch型的球員。

I think it's He's 7176 wingspan.

我想這是他的7176翼展。

He's lobbed.

他被扔了。

Threat can really run.

威脅真的可以跑。

He rebounds well, He blocked shots, protects the rim.

他的籃板很好，他擋住了投籃，保護了籃板。

I think he can shoot it.

我覺得他能射中它。

I think he could step away and shoot it.

我想他可以邁開腳步，拍下它。

And I think I think he's gonna fit in.

我想我覺得他能適應這裡的生活。

Well, if the Warriors decided to take him in number two because, you know, uh, there's a thought out there that you could get Ah, serviceable big guy on the on the open market and it's not that expensive.

好吧，如果勇士決定把他在二號位，因為，你知道，呃，有一個想法，你可以得到啊，服務性的大個子在公開市場上，它不是那麼昂貴。

And that may be true, but he's way better than serviceable.

這也許是真的，但他比服務好得多。

James James Wiseman is gonna be a really, really good player for a long time, as long as he stays healthy.

詹姆斯-威斯曼會是一個非常非常好的球員，只要他保持健康，就會有很長一段時間。

It's so interesting if he does end up going number two to Golden State because he does fill a need for them, obviously not in the same timeline as their main players.

如果他最終真的去了金州隊的二號位，那就太有意思了，因為他確實填補了他們的需求，顯然和他們的主力球員不在同一時間線上。

But at least the position is the correct position for something they might be drafting for.

但至少這個位置是他們可能起草的東西的正確位置。

And you said You think you could step away and shoot?

你說你可以走開，然後開槍？

I can't think of any better shooting coaches J than Clay Thompson, Steph Curry, Steve Kerr, Right?

我想不出比克萊-湯普森、斯蒂芬-庫裡、史蒂夫-科爾更好的投籃教練J，對吧？

That they've got the guys there to help him develop.

他們已經得到了幫助他發展的人。

Yeah, I just don't get in.

是啊，我只是不明白。

Ah, three point shooting contest of practice for money, especially as a rookie.

啊，三分投籃比賽的練錢，尤其是作為一個菜鳥。

Stay away from that E think that that would be good advice for anybody in the n.

遠離那個E認為這將是一個很好的建議，任何人在N。

B.

B.

A.

A.

Actually, not to get into a three point shooting contest for money on that team.

其實，不是為了那支球隊的錢而去參加三分投籃比賽。

Just just saying, I do wanna hop over, though, to college hoops we don't have to get.

只是說說而已，我是想跳過去，不過，大學的籃球我們沒有得到。

We don't get to have you on that often, J.

我們不可能經常請你來，J。

So I gotta ask you about your other gig here.

所以我得問你關於你在這裡的另一個演出。

The Pandemic presented so many challenges to the football season, but they're working through them because they get to play outdoors.

大流行病給足球賽季帶來了許多挑戰，但他們正在努力克服這些挑戰，因為他們可以在戶外比賽。

They have a week off in between games to sort of manage any positive tests they have.

他們在兩場比賽之間有一個星期的休息時間，以管理他們的任何陽性測試。

Basketball is a whole different story.

籃球則完全不同。

What your expectations for the upcoming season, which is only a week away?

對於即將到來的賽季，只有一週的時間，你有什麼期待？

Ah, Bumpy ride the the one hope that I have for basketball, as you've mentioned indoors, way more games, a lot more travel.

Ah, Bumpy ride the one hope that I have for basketball, as you've mentioned indoors, way more games, a lot more travel.

Ah, lot more.

啊，多了很多。

A lot more things involved.

牽扯到的東西更多。

We're about to have these schools send their students home, not just for Thanksgiving, but really for the first semester.

我們就要讓這些學校送學生回家了，不僅僅是感恩節，而是真正的第一學期。

And they're not gonna bring him back.

他們也不會把他帶回來了。

And I've got a I've got an idea that they're not gonna bring him back early in the second semester either.

而且我有個想法，他們也不會在第二學期就把他帶回來。

So that will give these basketball teams an opportunity to be on campus and isolated almost in their own bubble.

所以，這將給這些籃球隊提供一個在校園裡的機會，幾乎是在自己的保麗龍中被隔離。

And I think that's going to give us a better chance to get a season in eso I'm I'm I'm optimistic, cautiously, but But there's no question we're gonna have cancelations and postponements just like football.

我認為這將會給我們一個更好的機會來獲得一個賽季，我很樂觀，謹慎地，但毫無疑問，我們會有取消和延後，就像足球一樣。

We may have a better chance to get in those in, but we're gonna have to be creative.

我們可能會有一個更好的機會 在這些英寸，但我們要去必須是創造性的。

Yeah, for sure.

是的，當然。

Assuming the season does progress and get to march, how do you feel about the idea of a single site anti double A tournament in Indianapolis?

假設本賽季確實有進展，並且能行進，你怎麼看待在印第安納波利斯舉辦單場反雙A比賽的想法？

Smart move by the NC Double A.

NC雙A的明智之舉。

It's really the only thing they could do.

這真的是他們唯一能做的事情。

The idea that we were gonna be able to manage 13 different sites throughout the course of three weeks for an incident tournament.

我們要在三週內管理13個不同的場地來舉辦一場賽事的想法。

I think they realized that wasn't going to work.

我想他們意識到這是行不通的。

So having a bubble type environment, it won't be a strict bubble like they had down in Orlando for the N B.

所以有了保麗龍型的環境，就不會像他們在奧蘭多的N B那樣，有嚴格的保麗龍。

A.

A.

But it will be in isolation environment where they could bring everybody in their kind of isolate them in Indianapolis.

但它將在隔離環境中，他們可以把每個人在他們的那種隔離他們在印第安納波利斯。

I think that's gonna be the place where ultimately it is in.

我想，這將是最終它在的地方。

Indianapolis is always the default city for the Final Four.

印第安納波利斯一直是四強賽的默認城市。

If there's any sort of disruption for A for a Final Four, some sort of weather catastrophe or something, they always have the option every year to go to Indianapolis.

如果A隊參加四強賽有什麼干擾，什麼天氣災難之類的，他們每年總能選擇去印第安納波利斯。

Eso they're used to this and, uh, and I think it will be, ah, good thing.

他們已經習慣了這樣的生活，我想這將是一件好事。

But honestly, Rachel, it's the only the only way they get in if we go two years without an NC double a tournament, that that may be an existential threat for the Double A is an organization.

但說實話，瑞秋，這是他們唯一的辦法，如果我們兩年沒有NC雙甲聯賽，那可能是雙甲是一個組織的生存威脅。

You know.

你知道的

The tournament is their only revenue source.

賽事是他們唯一的收入來源。

They don't get any football money flowing through the W office.

他們沒有任何足球資金流經W辦公室。

It all comes in from the basketball tournament.

這一切都來自於籃球比賽。

They have to have this.

他們必須要有這個。
