但我認為會有更多的對話與NBA領導人關於不同的倡議，他們可以有在他們的社區，他們如何幫助NBA是這樣一個響亮的聲音，通過所有，呃，通過所有這些系統性的，呃，壓迫，我們已經經歷了過去的樣子，保羅-皮爾斯。

Uh, eso You know, it's gonna be exciting time.

Obviously, that door is back open, but I think the door that's open, which is more importantly, is conversation.

很明顯，這扇門又開了，但我認為開著的那扇門，更重要的是對話。

You know, there was absolutely no conversation between not only the the MBA, but the NFL players.

你知道，不僅是MBA，NFL球員之間絕對沒有對話。

Major League Baseball players now, and I know you know, doing with a lot of stuff heading into this, that you know, Biden definitely does have an open door policy, and we actually have a group going out there to meet with him.

美國職業棒球大聯盟的球員，我知道你知道，做了很多東西進入這個，你知道，拜登絕對有一個開放的政策，我們實際上有一個小組去那裡與他見面。

你們預計今年我們看到的這波運動員活動會繼續下去嗎？

I think so.

我想是的

Absolutely.

絕對的

Like I said, I think that we understand our power and numbers now by coming together not only athletes, but you know, the minority community as a whole with which they label us.

就像我說的，我認為我們現在明白了我們的力量和數字，通過走到一起，不僅是運動員，但你知道，作為一個整體的少數民族社區，他們給我們貼上了標籤。

We're not the minorities that were actually the majority now, and they try to label us the minority in our place.

我們現在已經不是原來的少數派了，其實是多數派，他們卻試圖在我們的位置上給我們貼上少數派的標籤。

Right.

好吧，我知道了

So, you know, we're the majority now, and I think we understand the power we have, and not only are platforms, but our vote, and once you get that type of power.

所以，你知道，我們現在是多數派，我想我們明白我們所擁有的力量，不僅是平臺，還有我們的選票，一旦你得到這種類型的權力。

You know, it's our job to keep it.

你知道，這是我們的工作，保持它。

Absolutely.

就像你說的，其他體育聯盟，呃，人們，無論他們在哪裡使用他們的聲音，現在可以放心地來到最前線，並在政府的管理下進行這種對話。

And then what?

然後呢？

People could go back and forth and bi partisan on policies that some of the main goals of this country to treat people equally to give people opportunity.

Those can be sort of some of the larger stated goals of our entire country together.

Equality, including Andi.

平等，包括安迪。

I will say, Matt, you were on the team, the Golden State team that voted not to go to the White House, and it does sound like the Lakers have made a decision that they do want to go to the White House, so we will see that tradition resume as well.

我想說的是，馬特，你曾在球隊中，金州隊投了不去白宮的票，聽起來湖人隊確實已經做出了決定，他們確實想去白宮，所以我們會看到這個傳統也會恢復。
