how much bad stuff can you live with to still get some of the good?

你能忍受多少壞的東西，還能得到一些好的東西？

程度副詞

That has been the question facing not just sports leagues, but every person, every family and, yes, every business in this country since this whole global pandemic started.

這不僅是體育聯盟面臨的問題，而且是這個國家的每一個人，每一個家庭，是的，每一個企業自整個全球流行病開始以來所面臨的問題。

Is it really worth it to take that trip out to the grocery store?

Most people think, yes, what about to go toe work?

大多數人認為，是的，那去腳趾工作呢？

Well, your answer probably changes depending on how much you need that job to make rent.

嗯，你的答案可能會改變，取決於你需要那份工作來賺取租金。

Or what about letting your kids play with a neighbor?

What if then the neighbor test positive for co vid?

如果後來鄰居的共視測試呈陽性怎麼辦？

And either you get it to or even if you don't?

而且不是你弄到，就是即使你不弄到？

You're told that you and your spouse and your kids need to spend a week without leaving your house, just to be sure you're not spreading it.

你被告知，你和你的配偶以及你的孩子需要花一個星期的時間不離開你的房子，只是為了確保你沒有傳播它。

那次玩耍約會會不會覺得很值得？

Right now, the MBA is still answering that question with yes, even is the number of affected teams and players mount?

現在，MBA對這個問題的回答仍然是肯定的，即使是受影響的球隊和球員數量也在不斷上升?

Just this afternoon, the league announced that both tonight's Pelicans Mavericks game and Tuesday's Celtics Bulls game were being postponed due to covert issues.

就在今天下午，聯盟宣佈今晚鵜鶘小牛的比賽和週二凱爾特人公牛的比賽都因為隱祕問題而延期。

The 3rd and 4th such postponements of this three week old NBA season and the number of players across the league are in covert related protocols is mushrooming.

本賽季NBA三週的第3次和第4次這樣的延期，全聯盟處於祕密相關協議的球員數量也在不斷增加。

11 on Wednesday, 15 on Thursday now jumps to 26 on Friday, 27 on Sunday.

週三11個，週四15個，現在週五跳到26個，週日27個。

We're still getting the full count from today.

從今天開始，我們還在進行全面統計。

Here's Brad Stevens walking off the court yesterday after the Celtics Heat game had to be postponed.

這是昨天凱爾特人熱火隊比賽不得不延後後，布拉德-史蒂文斯走下球場。

That game was called Dudakovic issues on the Miami side.

那場比賽邁阿密這邊叫杜達科維奇問題。

But I'm guessing the postponement was actually a relief to the Celtics, who as of yesterday only had eight players available themselves.

但我猜測，延期其實對凱爾特人來說是一種解脫，因為截至昨天，他們自己只有8名球員可用。

Now that would have, actually, technically have been enough NBA rules this season.

現在，其實從技術上講，這個賽季的NBA規則已經夠了。

Say, if you've got eight, you have to take the court and play because, frankly, they need to get games in.

說，如果你有八個人，你必須上場打球，因為，坦率地說，他們需要得到遊戲。

And eight is where they've drawn the line on the bare minimum to make that possible.

而八是他們劃定了最低限度的界限，使之成為可能。

But, of course, that is not sitting well with everyone.

不過，這當然不是所有人都能接受的。

Take what happened Saturday with the Sixers after Cove.

以週六六人隊發生的事情為例，在科沃。

It and its accompanying precautions ripped through the Philadelphia locker room.

它及其伴隨的預防措施在費城更衣室裡撕開了一道口子。

Doc Rivers said he didn't think the team should be playing that going ahead with only eight or nine guys would cause too much wear and tear on the players who were on the court, including stars like Ben Simmons and Joe L.

多克-裡弗斯說，他認為球隊不應該只用八九個人打下去，會對場上的球員造成太大的磨損，包括本-西蒙斯和喬-L等明星。

So the Sixers ended upholding and beaten Simmons out of that day's game against Denver anyway, listing them with minor injuries, bringing their number of healthy bodies to seven.

所以六人隊最終還是維護並擊敗西蒙斯退出了當天對陣丹佛的比賽，將他們列為輕傷，使他們的健康身體數量達到了7個。

Maybe they were hoping that would trigger a postponement, But it didnt, since neither the injuries to Simmons nor AM Beat had previously been reported to the league.

也許他們希望這能引發延期，但並沒有，因為西蒙斯和AM Beat的傷情之前都沒有向聯盟報告。

And look, I don't know the exact conversation between the team and league officials, but to outside eyes.

而且你看，我不知道球隊和聯盟官員的具體對話，但在外界看來。

The message from the embassy sure seem to be, Hey, we know no team wants toe only play games that count in the standings with the severely undermanned team.

大使館的資訊肯定似乎是，嘿，我們知道沒有球隊願意趾只打積分榜上的比賽，與嚴重不足的球隊。

But you can't just forced the postponement by sitting a couple extra players to get under that eight benchmark.

但你不能為了在八號基準下多坐幾個人，就強行延後。

It's a message the MBA further amplified this afternoon when it find Philadelphia 25 grand in relations to Simmons sitting.

這是一個資訊MBA進一步放大今天下午，當它發現費城25盛大在關係西蒙斯坐。

And if you think all of this has caused some rankling in team front offices, you would be correct, are a dreamer.

如果你認為這一切都引起了球隊前臺的不滿，那你就對了，是個夢想家。

Janowski reports that one general manager told ESPN quote.

雅諾夫斯基報道，一位總經理告訴ESPN報價。

They tell us it will be better later in this season.

他們告訴我們，本賽季後期會更好。

But I just hope this doesn't break the league in the next few weeks Now, which also reports there is now a Special Board of Governors meeting happening tomorrow and that the league's GM zehr, scheduled to have a conference call today to go over whether protocols should be further tightened.

但我只希望這不會讓聯盟在接下來的幾周內崩潰現在，這也報道了現在有一個特別的理事會會議發生在明天，聯盟的總經理zehr，計劃在今天召開電話會議，討論是否應該進一步加強協議。

For example, right now on road trips, players are allowed to have a guest or two from that city visit.

例如，現在在客場旅行時，允許玩家有一兩個該城市的客人來訪。

Their hotel room is supposed to be a family member or close friend.

他們的酒店房間應該是家庭成員或親密的朋友。

I don't know how much longer that's going to be allowed.

我不知道這還要多久才能被允許。

There's also new scrutiny on players from opposing teams, hugging or talking without masks after a game.

對於對方球隊的球員，賽後不戴口罩擁抱或說話也有新的審查。

At least right now, the MBA is expected to tell teams the league is moving forward, even if the competitive balance is a mess, even if the stop start nature of the protocols leaves some players more vulnerable to injury.

至少現在，MBA有望告訴各隊聯盟正在向前發展，即使競爭平衡是一團糟，即使協議的停止啟動性質使一些球員更容易受傷。

畢竟，這不是單純的遊戲約會。

This is an 8 to $10 billion a year business.

這是一個每年80到100億的生意。

The effects of just shutting down until players are vaccinated would be catastrophic to that business both short and long term when those diving for their fainting couches today say, this is about the money.

當今天那些跳水的昏厥沙發上的人說，這就是錢的問題，在球員沒有接種疫苗之前，僅僅是停業，對該企業的短期和長期影響都是災難性的。

Pro sports have always been about the money, and you are perfectly within your rights to be disgusted with that if you choose.

職業體育一直都是為了錢，如果你選擇厭惡這一點，你完全有權利。

But it's also the reason the NFL, Major League Baseball college football played through postponements and positive test.

但這也是NFL、美國職業棒球大聯盟大學橄欖球玩過延期和陽性測試的原因。

It's just that the degree of difficulty was always going to be harder for the MBA, which played several games a week indoors, with fewer bodies available for team and what now is the absolute worst spike of this virus?

只是對於MBA來說，難度程度總是會比較大，每週在室內打幾場比賽，球隊可用的身體比較少，而現在這種病毒絕對是最嚴重的高峰期?

那麼，N B A是否應該回到保麗龍中去？

Good luck convincing players to be locked away from their families for the next eight months.

祝願說服玩家在未來八個月內遠離家人。

Should the guidance change on how teams hold in person meetings and practices, or whether they hold them at all?

指導意見是否應該改變團隊如何舉行親自會議和實踐，或者是否舉行？

Maybe for those who made fun of Allen Iverson about practice all those years ago, the Cleveland Browns would like a word.

也許對於那些多年前取笑阿倫-艾弗森關於訓練的人，克利夫蘭布朗隊想說一句話。

The hard reality is that all MBA teams all they have faced so far in the short season.

殘酷的現實是，所有MBA球隊所有他們在短短的賽季中至今所面對的。

It is going to continue, probably getting worse before it gets better.

它將繼續下去，可能會在好轉之前變得更糟。

As long as the league plays basketball in a pandemic, is it worth it?

只要聯盟打籃球的時候出現大疫情，就值得嗎？

 So far, the league and its players say yes, thanks for watching ESPN on YouTube for live streaming sports and premium content subscribed to ESPN plus. 

到目前為止，聯盟和它的球員說是的，感謝在YouTube上觀看ESPN的體育直播和訂閱ESPN plus的優質內容。
