And then this morning, ESPN reported, James will have to isolate for four days total, but he will be available for the Rockets next game, which is Saturday.

然後今天早上，ESPN報道，詹姆斯總共要隔離四天，但他可以參加火箭隊下一場比賽，也就是週六的比賽。

Now.

現在就去

The four days was determined by the league's medical experts.

這四天的時間是由聯盟的醫療專家確定的。

But above and beyond that, you guys could have decided to suspend him.

但除此之外，你們可以決定讓他停職。

Why fine instead of suspend the president is that discipline gets ratcheted up and it's Christmas.

為什麼要罰款而不是讓總裁停職，就是因為紀律被加強了，而且是聖誕節。

It was the first offend.

這是第一個得罪人的。

Frankly, to your point, the $50,000 is the limit of my authority under the collective bargaining agreement and and what would have happened?

坦率地說，對於你的觀點，5萬元是我根據集體談判協議的權限極限，而且而且會發生什麼？

I mean, in a way, he got lucky because if the game had taken place last night had scheduled and he were unavailable because of his own actions, he would've missed a game in a paycheck.

我的意思是，在某種程度上，他很幸運，因為如果昨晚的比賽已經安排好了，而他因為自己的行為而無法參加，他就會錯過一場比賽的薪水。

And so it would have in practice, you know, are ultimately have turned out to be a much larger sanction.

是以，它將有 在實踐中，你知道， 最終有變成 一個更大的制裁。

But a little bit of luck there, I'd say.

但我想說，那裡有一點運氣。

Also, we're just beginning these protocols and I it seemed fair in the first instance, But it's Christmas.

而且，我們才剛開始這些協議，我一開始覺得很公平，但今天是聖誕節。

Certainly appreciate your holiday spirit, and I understand you have discretion here.

當然很欣賞你的節日精神，我也明白你在這裡有分寸。

It's not the first time and even just the past couple weeks, though, that Harden was very visibly partying in clubs without a mask.

不過這已經不是第一次了，甚至就在過去幾周，哈登非常明顯地在俱樂部裡不戴面具開派對。

And I know the first time he hadn't reported to training camp yet, but he was supposed to have.

而且我知道第一次他還沒有到訓練營報到，但他應該已經。

It's not the camp hadn't started.

並不是營地還沒有開始。

Every other Rockets player had to abide by Covic protocol rules that same week.

其他每一個火箭隊的球員都必須在同一周遵守科維奇的協議規則。

Why didn't you consider James to be under those rules at that time?

為什麼當時你不認為詹姆斯是在這些規則之下？

He wasn't because just as you said, he hadn't reported to training camp yet.

他沒有，因為就像你說的，他還沒有去訓練營報到。

You know, I'd only say, Rachel, I think that anyone who was in a position of meeting out discipline as I am, um, can't succumb Thio Frontier Justice.

你知道，我只想說，瑞秋，我認為任何一個像我這樣的人，都不能屈服於 "邊境正義"。

I mean, I understand what Twitter would like to see happen here, but union there are rules, and my job is to follow the rules.

我的意思是，我明白推特希望看到這裡發生什麼，但工會有規則，我的工作就是遵守規則。

I mean, in this case, putting aside prior conduct.

我的意思是，在這種情況下，拋開之前的行為。

This was, you know, this was the first violation for James under these new protocols, and as I said, it was the limit of my finding authority.

這是，你知道，這是詹姆斯在這些新協議下的第一次違規，正如我所說，這是我發現權限的極限。

It didn't seem appropriate to suspend him for that act alone.

僅僅因為這個行為而讓他停職，似乎並不合適。

And as I said, had the game been played and he had, he had been out because of that conduct.

就像我說的，如果比賽打完了，他已經，他已經因為這種行為出局了。

You know, the required quarantine, he would have missed a paycheck.

你知道，所需的檢疫，他將會錯過一份薪水。

And so, as I said, Well, we're learning as we go and look.

所以，就像我說的，好吧，我們邊走邊看邊學習。

It's a thorny, complicated situation, not just for the league office but for the Rockets themselves.

這是個棘手而複雜的局面，不僅是聯盟辦公室，也是火箭隊自己。

It's been a rocky month overall in Houston.

休斯敦這個月總體上很不順利。

I know James has not publicly come out and said the two words trade me.

我知道詹姆斯沒有公開出來說過交易我這兩個字。

But regardless, I just want to know how you feel about one of your most high profile players, a guy the Rockets air paying more than half a million dollars each.

但無論如何，我只想知道你對你最引人注目的球員之一，一個火箭隊空降的傢伙，每個人付出超過50萬美元的代價是什麼感覺。

And every time he plays a game so publicly and repeatedly acting against the best interests of the team.

而每當他在比賽中如此公開地、反覆地做出違背球隊最佳利益的行為。

Of course, my reaction is guys tracks.

當然，我的反應是男人的足跡。

They should honor them, and to the extent that there are disputes between teams and players, they should be handled behind closed doors.

他們應該尊重他們，至於球隊和球員之間的糾紛，應該閉門處理。

I mean, look, this isn't the first time you've had a star player who's expressed dissatisfaction with some aspect of his situation.

我是說，聽著，這不是第一次有明星球員對他的某些方面的情況表示不滿了。

I mean, it's been part of this leak.

我的意思是，它一直是這個洩漏的一部分。

CIT's.

CIT的。

It's early days, but now everything gets amplified because of social media, digital media, the job that you and your colleagues do.

現在還早，但現在一切都因為社交媒體、數字媒體、你和你的同事所做的工作而被放大。

So we recognize that.

所以我們認識到這一點。

And it's it's not what you want to see as part of the league.

而這是它不是你想看到的聯盟的一部分。

And you know what?

你知道嗎？

You hope that James will bear down and be a professional, and he'll and he'll honor, you know, to the to the tea every aspect of his contract and that.

你希望詹姆斯能忍耐下來，做一個職業的人，他會，他會尊重，你知道，對茶的每一個方面，他的合同和。

But these issues need to be worked out, and I think it's now, of course, been compounded by this most recent violation.

但這些問題需要解決，我想現在，當然是被最近的這次違規行為所加劇了。

So it's highly unusual time, and I think we have to take that into account.

所以這是很不尋常的時間，我想我們必須考慮到這一點。

But you also count on everyone settling down now, now that regular season has begun again and focusing on basketball.

不過你也算大家現在安下心來，現在常規賽又開始了，專心打籃球。

Yeah, I mean, we didn't have those great highlights right at the top of the interview, and last night was the first full slate of games of the season.

是啊，我的意思是，我們沒有那些偉大的亮點，就在採訪的頂部，昨晚是本賽季的第一場完整的比賽。

It was unfortunate that on day two, basically, thunder rockets had to be postponed because the rockets didn't have the minimum eight players required to proceed.

很不幸的是，在第二天，基本上雷霆火箭不得不延後，因為火箭沒有最低8名選手的要求，無法進行。

Can you just take me through what Yesterday afternoon and evening were like for you as the league's medical group sorted all this out well again.

你能不能帶我去看看昨天下午和晚上你是怎麼想的，因為聯盟的醫療組又把這一切都整理好了。

You know we're following, as you said, a panel of doctors and scientists.

你知道我們正在跟蹤，如你所說，一個由醫生和科學家組成的小組。

And this is really there's an aspect of this that has nothing to do with discipline because, as we all know, I mean there there are violations of the rules.

而這真的是有一個方面，這與紀律無關，因為，我們都知道，我的意思是有違反規則的行為。

But then there's also living life outside of a bubble that that we were in the summer.

但也有生活在保麗龍之外，那就是我們在夏天的生活。

And if you're living your life just like every other American, whether it's because you have Children in school partners going to their jobs or for that matter, going to the grocery store visiting relatives, there's a chance that you're going to get infected.

如果你生活在你的生活就像每一個其他的美國人，無論是因為你有孩子在學校的合作伙伴去他們的工作，或為此事，去雜貨店拜訪親戚，有一個機會，你會被感染。

So we recognize going into the season I said it, that we knew we were gonna have cases just as baseball salt cases.

所以我們認識到進入賽季我說過，我們知道我們會有案子，就像棒球鹽的案子一樣。

And the NFL is working through those cases now.

而NFL現在正在通過這些案例。

And so once you know, there was a a confluence of a bunch of circumstances there was.

所以一旦你知道，有一個匯合 一堆情況有。

This is high profile violation.

這是高調的違規行為。

But then there was a Siris of incidents.

但後來發生了西里斯事件。

But the team, um, some involving violations come not and at the end of day are medical professionals have to go player by player on.

但球隊，嗯，一些涉及違規來不和在一天結束的時候是醫療專業人員必須去球員的球員上。

Look at the particular situation of each player.

看每個選手的具體情況。

Obviously, if someone's infected, that's a quick decision.

很明顯，如果有人被感染，那是一個快速的決定。

Thio, Isis and separate them.

Thio，Isis，並將他們分開。

But then there's the contact tracing.

但是，還有聯繫追蹤。

And then there's the question of what other players or team personnel did that infected person come in contact with.

還有一個問題，那名感染者還接觸了哪些球員或球隊人員。

And that takes time.

而這需要時間。

And you know, when one of the real difficulties in our league, unlike the NFL of courses, were playing essentially every other day.

你知道，當我們聯盟中真正的困難之一，不像NFL的課程，基本上每隔一天就打一次。

So there's not a lot of time to work through these issues.

所以沒有太多的時間去解決這些問題。

So that's what yesterday was like and and also say that we're a Z I mentioned earlier.

所以這就是昨天的情況，也說我們是我前面提到的一個Z。

We're gonna learn as we go.

我們要邊走邊學

I mean, just as you recall Rachel, having been down in the bubble, we started with one set of protocols.

我的意思是，就像你記得瑞秋，在保麗龍中，我們從一套協議開始。

But then we continually adjusted them as we're learning more, and I think it's gonna be the same situation here.

但後來我們隨著學習的深入，不斷調整他們，我想這裡也會是同樣的情況。

And it may even mean that with our players association as we go, all these rules have to be negotiated.

而這甚至可能意味著，我們的球員協會在走的時候，這些規則都要進行協商。

But we'll sit down with them and say, All right, these aspects aren't working, and I can say to a player everyone wants this to work You know, I've said before people wanna work.

但我們會和他們坐下來，說："好吧，這些方面沒有用，我可以對玩家說，每個人都希望這個工作，你知道，我以前說過，人們想工作。

NBA players won't work.

NBA球員不會工作。

Everyone in our system, we account for tens of thousands of jobs.

我們系統內的每個人，都佔了數萬個工作崗位。

I mean, it's not just the players and the coaches.

我是說，這不僅僅是球員和教練的問題。

It's our broadcasting partners like yourself.

是我們的廣播夥伴，比如你自己。

It's those in the arenas.

是那些場館裡的人。

Even when the arenas aren't open to fans, it takes hundreds of people to stand up these arenas for every game.

即使場館不對球迷開放，每場比賽也需要數百人站好這些場館。

Six arenas.

六個競技場。
