We're all waiting for opening night tomorrow night, eh?

我們都在等著明晚的開幕式，嗯？

And it is my honor and privilege to have our next guest approaching his seventh year as commissioner of the National Basketball Association.

而我很榮幸地邀請到下一位嘉賓，他即將迎來自己擔任國家籃協委員的第七個年頭。

Because before we get to any on court stuff, obviously we've got to get to a lot of things about this global pandemic that's basically taken over this world right now, about almost not about nine months ago.

因為在我們討論任何法庭上的事情之前，很明顯，我們已經得到了很多東西，關於這個全球性的流行病，現在基本上已經接管了這個世界，大約幾乎沒有大約九個月前。

Had to postpone the season March 11th because of covert 19.

因為隱蔽19，不得不延後3月11日的賽季。

在保麗龍中度過了一段非凡的時光。

但現在我們來到了一個新的賽季。

When you talk about players, coaches, league personnel getting vaccinated for covert 19.

當你說到球員、教練、聯盟人員要接種隱蔽的19號疫苗時。

How How are you guys gonna go about doing that?

Although we're somewhat in the dark, not unlike most people.

雖然我們有些矇在鼓裡，和大多數人不一樣。

Certainly you know there's there's no way we would ever jump the line in any form whatsoever.

你當然知道，我們不可能以任何形式跳線。

Onda, For the most part, because our players are young and healthy without some sort of co morbidity, they will not be a high priority for vaccinations.

歐達，在大多數情況下，因為我們的球員年輕健康，沒有某種共同發病，所以他們不會是疫苗接種的重點。

I mean, there are some other members of the n b a community working, you know, on court who are older and will have a higher priority to get the vaccine.

我的意思是，有一些其他成員的n b a社區工作，你知道，在法庭上誰是老年人，將有一個更高的優先權，以獲得疫苗。

But as I said, I mean, we will, I think, very likely be part of some public service campaigns.

但正如我所說，我的意思是，我們將，我認為，很可能成為一些公益活動的一部分。

We've already talked to the CDC and other other mental agencies about that encouraging people to get vaccinated when it is appropriate.

我們已經和疾控中心和其他精神機構談過，鼓勵人們在適當的時候接種疫苗。

But up till then, as I said, we'll just be watching and waiting.

但在那之前，正如我說的，我們只是在觀察和等待。

Like you said, When it's appropriate, you'll definitely encourage people.

就像你說的，適當的時候，你一定會鼓勵大家。

What if players refuse, sir, how is that going to be handled by the MBA?

如果球員拒絕怎麼辦，先生，那MBA怎麼處理？

You know, first of all, we don't have the right, um, short of a negotiation with their union to require them to get vaccines.

你知道，首先，我們沒有權利， 嗯，短的談判與他們的工會 要求他們得到疫苗。

You know that some people don't want to get vaccinated.

你知道，有些人不想接種疫苗。

I think it part of it will be a public education campaign.

我認為它的一部分將是一個公眾教育運動。

I'm also hoping that as more people get vaccinated, increases the public's confidence in the vaccine and the testing protocols they've they've undergone thus far in order for the government to, in essence, verified that it is safe.

我也希望隨著越來越多的人接種疫苗，增加公眾對疫苗的信心，他們已經他們已經經歷了迄今為止的測試協議，為了讓政府，在本質上，驗證它是安全的。

But I again I think as time goes on, I think more people will recognize the importance of getting vaccinated and again, not just for themselves.

但我又覺得隨著時間的推移，我想更多的人會認識到接種疫苗的重要性，再次，不僅僅是為了自己。

I mean, this is a conversation we've already begun with some members of the community again.

我的意思是，這是我們已經開始與一些社會成員再次進行對話。

Well, it's still incredibly serious disease.

They tend to do better than older people or people with underlying conditions.

他們往往比老年人或有基礎疾病的人做得更好。

So for our players, the ultimately the reason to get vaccinated may not be to protect themselves.

所以對於我們的玩家來說，最終打疫苗的原因可能不是為了保護自己。

It may be to protect their parents, their grand parents and other members of the community.

可能是為了保護自己的父母、祖父母和其他社會成員。

When people talk about the NBA as it pertains to Kovar 19, you guys with standard because obviously you were very, very successful, uh, in the bubble in terms of, you know, you know, just making sure that there were no positive test.

當人們談論NBA，因為它涉及到科沃爾19，你們與標準，因為顯然你是非常，非常成功的，呃，在保麗龍方面，你知道，你知道，只是確保沒有陽性測試。

It was a phenomenal job by the league players everybody involved, but now we're talking about something that's not a bubble.

這是一個現象級的工作，由聯盟球員每個人都參與其中，但現在我們談論的東西不是保麗龍。

Going to be able to enforce protocols in 30 different locations?

要能在30個不同的地方執行協議？

我想象著在保麗龍隊中這樣做。

It's a fair question, and it's gonna be a very different operation being outside of a bubble.

這是一個公平的問題，它會是一個非常不同的操作是在保麗龍之外。

I mean, as you know, there are all sorts of issues going into the bubble, and we weren't sure how that would work.

我的意思是，你知道，有各種各樣的問題進入保麗龍，我們不知道這將如何工作。

And it ended up working in many ways far better than we thought.

而最終的效果在很多方面遠比我們想象的要好。

In essence, 30 different markets were, you know, and and completely outside of a a bubble.

在本質上，30個不同的市場，你知道，和完全外的一個保麗龍。

There's no doubt we're gonna have issues.

We've been watching closely what's been happening, not just with other leagues, college sports, etcetera that are playing outside of bubble.

我們一直在密切關注著發生的事情，不僅僅是其他聯盟、大學體育等在保麗龍之外的比賽。

I'd say, aside from violations of protocol, we know that even people who are following all of our rules exactly as intended, that when you're living at home, you have Children in school.

我想說的是，除了違反協議外，我們知道，即使是那些完全按照我們的規則行事的人，當你住在家裡的時候，你有孩子在學校。

You have family members who are out and about, Um, no one is immune from this virus.

你有家人外出，嗯，沒有人對這種病毒有免疫力。

I mean, we saw it when our players first came into training camp just a few weeks ago.

我是說，幾周前我們的球員剛進訓練營的時候，我們就看到了。

You know, we had essentially 50 positive cases just to begin training camp.

你知道，我們有基本上50個陽性案例 只是開始訓練營。

And this is not necessarily because anyone engaged in reckless activity, it's because they're living their lives like most other Americans are.

這不一定是因為有人從事了魯莽的活動，而是因為他們像其他大多數美國人一樣過著自己的生活。

So I mean, we'll have all kinds of procedures in place to attempt to assure that our protocols are following.

所以，我的意思是，我們會有各種程序的地方，試圖確保我們的協議是遵循。

Of course, to the extent they aren't will address it.

當然，在他們不的程度上會解決這個問題。

And I think one of the conversations we've been having with our players associations, we may have to adjust our protocols as we go, depending on how things are working.

我想我們與球員協會的對話之一，我們可能要調整我們的協議，因為我們要看事情的進展情況。

But to your point, this is gonna be a far different environment than being in a bubble.

但對於你的觀點，這將是一個遠遠不同的環境比在保麗龍中。

And there's no doubt I think, that that there were there will highly likely that there will be cases based on what we're seeing in society around us.

而且毫無疑問，我認為，有 有將有極有可能有案件 基於我們看到的社會在我們周圍。

Last question on this particular subject.

最後一個關於這個問題的問題。

I know you how optimistic that you are, and you don't like toe, even though you take all matters in the consideration.

我知道你有多樂觀，你不喜歡腳趾，雖然你把所有的事情都考慮到了。

Worst case scenario beyond you certainly don't like to think that way.

最壞的情況下，你肯定不喜歡這麼想。

Is there any kind of scenario that you can envision where this season could ultimately end up being postponed again?

你能設想到本賽季最終可能再次延期的情況嗎？

And if so, you know specifically, can you speak to what's being done to make sure that's prevented?

如果是這樣，你知道具體的，你能說說正在做什麼，以確保這種情況的預防？

Well, you know, first of all, is it possible that this season could get postpone?

嗯，你知道，首先，這個賽季有可能被延後嗎？

I mean, you know, nobody can predict precisely the trajectory of this virus.

我的意思是，你知道，沒有人可以準確地預測這種病毒的軌跡。

I mean, it's it's been terrible, frankly, you know, And, you know, hundreds of thousands of lives have been lost, just the United States, and it continues to rage in many ways, and this is something very new that we're doing.

我的意思是，它是... ...它是可怕的， 坦率地說，你知道，而且，你知道， 數十萬人的生命已經失去了， 只是美國，它繼續肆虐 在許多方面， 這是非常新的東西 我們正在做的。

Um, you know, again, watching closely what's happening.

嗯，你知道，再次，密切關注發生了什麼。

The NFL in baseball and they're doing baseball did an incredible job under the circumstances, and so is the NFL now.

棒球中的NFL，他們在做棒球的情況下做了一個不可思議的工作，現在的NFL也是如此。

But those air outdoor sports there in stadiums, just as when we went into the bubble, we couldn't be sure how things would play out.

但體育場館那裡的那些空中戶外運動，就像我們進入保麗龍一樣，我們無法確定事情會如何發展。

Now that we're trying something new, an indoor sport, you know, you know, again different protocols that we haven't had in place before.

現在，我們正在嘗試一些新的東西，一個室內運動，你知道，你知道，再次不同的協議，我們以前沒有到位。

I think we wouldn't be acting responsibly, and I wouldn't be acting responsibly if I said it's just full steam ahead no matter what.

我覺得我們就不負責任了，如果我說無論如何都要全力以赴，那就不是負責任了。

Having said that, based on our experience in the bubble, we have a fair degree of confidence in our approach.

儘管如此，根據我們在保麗龍中的經驗，我們對我們的做法有相當程度的信心。
