謝謝你今天早上和我們一起玩。

You know, when you went to U.

你知道，當你去U.

C l A.

C l A.

So are you just branded top to bottom in all things?

那你是不是所有的東西都只是從上到下的品牌？

U C L A gear like, do you still get as a U.

U C L A裝備一樣，你還能得到作為U。

C l A legend?

C l A傳說？

You get tons of swag.

你會得到大量的贓物。

I'm just being honest.

我只是實話實說。

I've been very limited on my amount of swag in recent years.

近年來，我的贓物數量非常有限。

However, with the new Jordan brand deal, I'll be all over the swag for the girls.

不過，隨著喬丹品牌的新交易，我將全力為女孩們準備好贓物。

I already let my people know that the first jay's that come out in U C l A colors.

我已經讓我的人知道了，第一批出場的烏鴉的顏色是U C l A。

I need to have them on my feet.

我需要他們在我的腳。

See, this is why we like having guests on here because they help us with these things.

看，這就是為什麼我們喜歡有客人在這裡 因為他們會幫助我們解決這些事情。

All right, We're gonna play a game with you, Farnham.

好吧,我們要和你玩個遊戲,法納姆.

And that the that game is contender Pretender.

而那個遊戲是競爭者Pretender。

So we'll lay out a team for you, and you tell us whether you think they're a contender for the national championship or a pretender.

所以我們會給你列出一支球隊，你告訴我們，你認為他們是全國冠軍的競爭者，還是假裝者。

Are you ready to go here?

你準備好到這裡來了嗎？

I'm nervous, but somehow some way.

我很緊張，但不知怎麼的，不知怎麼的。

I think we're going to navigate our way through this.

我想我們會順利通過的。

All right, let's start with the number three team in all the land.

好吧，讓我們從全國排名第三的隊伍開始。

Villanova.

維拉諾瓦。

They played their first game in 27 days, barely beat Seton Hall, but that's a long gap.

他們在27天內打了第一場比賽，勉強擊敗了塞頓霍爾，但這是一個很長的差距。

So what do you got here?

那麼，你在這裡得到了什麼？

Contender?

競爭者？

Pretender.

偽裝者

They are definitely a contender.

他們絕對是一個競爭者。

I think when you look at this team that long of a gap, they played Seton Hall.

我想，當你看到這支球隊那麼長的差距時，他們打的是塞頓霍爾。

Seton Hall's been playing some of its best basketball this season.

塞頓霍爾本賽季打出了最好的籃球。

UH, J writes Team is loaded.

UH，J寫道："隊伍已經裝好了。

This this roster looks like similar rosters that have won national championships for Villanova.

這個這個名單看起來就像維拉諾瓦大學獲得過全國冠軍的類似名單。

When you think about Colin Gillespie, Jeremiah Robinson, Earl, who's probably one of the more versatile scores in an offensive threats that we have in the college game, they have everything you need to be able to compete at a high level.

當你想到科林-吉萊斯皮，傑裡邁亞-羅賓遜，厄爾，他可能是我們在大學比賽中的進攻威脅中更靈活的得分之一，他們擁有你需要的一切，能夠在高水平上競爭。

The problem is, it's almost like it's two seasons because they got their season started up in Bubble Ville.

問題是，這幾乎是兩個賽季，因為他們在泡泡村開始了他們的賽季。

They played all those games, and then they had that 27 day layoff that you just talked about.

他們打了所有這些比賽，然後他們有27天的休息，你剛才說的。

There's a lot of restarting the engine getting re engaged in.

有很多重新啟動發動機得到重新參與。

In particular, I saw some flaws at the defensive end floor against Seton Hall.

尤其是在對陣塞頓霍爾的比賽中，我看到了防守端地板上的一些瑕疵。

They'll have to fix, but they're capable of doing this.

他們必須修復，但他們有能力做到這一點。

Stick there for a second before we move on.

在我們繼續前進之前，先在那裡停留一秒鐘。

You mentioned that the gap and getting re engaged from a player's standpoint.

你提到的差距，並從玩家的角度重新參與。

What's the toughest part of getting back into rhythm when you had a long break?

當你休息了很久之後，恢復節奏最艱難的部分是什麼？

The mental edge.

心理優勢。

I mean, it's It's not the physical aspect, because even with the starting and stopping, you're still getting shots up.

我的意思是，這不是身體方面的問題，因為即使是開始和停止，你仍然得到的鏡頭了。

You're still doing a lot of those things, but the mental aspect of the game being dialed in, and I think that's where it shows up a defense, because if you're not locked in for the full shot clock, the full possession, you're not fighting through screens.

你仍然在做很多這些事情，但精神方面的比賽被撥入，我認為這是一個防守的表現，因為如果你沒有鎖定完整的投籃時間，完整的球權，你沒有通過螢幕戰鬥。

You're not communicating with your teammates.

你沒有和你的隊友溝通。

You could get disjointed at the defensive end and start chasing.

你可以在防守端脫節，開始追擊。

And once the offense has you chasing, that's when things go go bad.

而一旦進攻讓你追著打，那就是出問題的時候。

All right, Next up, I number four Iowa, and I'm going to use a phrase that you yourself used before the show started.

好了，接下來，我是四號選手愛荷華州，我要用你自己在節目開始前說過的一句話。

They did have their ass is handed to them by Indiana on Thursday.

他們確實有他們的屁股是由印第安納州在週四交給他們。

So what do you think?

你覺得怎麼樣？

Contender or pretender.

競爭者或假裝者。

All right, look, I responded to this email at two o'clock on Thursday.

好吧，聽著，我在週四兩點回復了這封郵件。

You know, I could have gone without the loss to Indiana.

你知道，我可以不輸給印第安納州。

I'm gonna go still, contender.

我還是要去，競爭者。

Here's why Jordan Bohannon was atrocious in that game.

這就是為什麼喬丹-博漢農在那場比賽中表現糟糕。

I mean, he didn't hit a shot.

我的意思是，他沒有擊中一個鏡頭。

Luka Garza was outstanding.

盧卡-加爾薩很出色。

And as long as you have Luka Garza on the floor and you have an offense, it's capable of scoring over 90 points, which Iowa does, then they are still a contender.

而只要你有盧卡-加紮在場上，你的進攻，就能夠得到90分以上，愛荷華就是這樣，那麼他們仍然是一個競爭者。

The light as faras.

光如法拉斯。

How much we're turning it on and off for Contender dims a little bit, obviously with loss against Indiana.

我們對爭冠者有多大的開銷就有多大的影響，顯然對印第安納的失利。

But this team And when you have a player that you can literally at any point in time, you're going okay, we're struggling offensively.

但這支球隊 而當你有一個球員，你可以在任何時間點上字面上，你會好起來，我們在進攻中掙扎。

Where do we go?

我們要去哪裡？

We go toe Luka Garza underneath and we play through him because not only is he a great score down low on the block and he could get create position close to the rim, they do have great shooters on the outside.

我們去盧卡-加扎的下方，我們通過他來打球，因為他不僅在低位擋拆時得分能力很強，而且他可以在靠近籃筐的地方創造位置，他們在外線確實有很棒的射手。

They just did not shoot the ball well against Indiana and, conversely, that impacted their defense.

他們只是在對陣印第安納的比賽中投籃不理想，反之，這也影響了他們的防守。

Alright, so next up on the Contender pretender game just because I like saying Shaka Smart.

好了，接下來是爭奪者預選賽，只是因為我喜歡說沙卡智能。

Let's talk about Texas, a team that actually plays a little bit of defense.

我們來談談德州，一支真正會防守的球隊。

What do you got?

你有什麼？

Contender.

競爭者。

Pretender.

偽裝者

Definitely a contender.

絕對是一個競爭者。

I love Shaka Smart's team because Shaka Smart to me, they have the great ability to score the basketball defensively.

我喜歡沙卡智能的球隊，因為沙卡智能對我來說，他們有很強的籃板球防守得分能力。

They are a dangerous team.

他們是一支危險的隊伍。

They have one of the best defensive efficiencies in all of college basketball.

他們的防守效率是全大學籃球界最好的之一。

Great length, out on the wings.

大長，出在翅膀上。

They can really stretch you.

他們真的可以拉伸你。

Now.

現在就去

The concern comes at the guard position.

關注點就在守衛位置。

They have struggled at times in important moments with guard play.

他們在重要時刻的守衛戰術有時也很難做到。

The best story in all of college basketball simply is Andrew Jones, his battle through cancer.

大學籃球最精彩的故事簡直就是安德魯-瓊斯，他與癌症的鬥爭。

He is a survivor and then to not only see him survive but to conquer college basketball.

他是一個倖存者，然後不僅要看到他生存下來，還要看到他征服大學籃球。

This year, he is their leading scorer.

今年，他是他們的主要得分手。

Hit the game when he shot at West Virginia.

打比賽時，他在西弗吉尼亞州開槍。

Love everything about Shaka Smart's team and Andrew Jones.

喜歡沙卡智能的團隊和安德魯-瓊斯的一切。

And I'm rooting for him in particular because he's not just a survivor of cancer, but he has proven that he has gotten back to where he was beforehand, which is where we thought he would be a potential pro prospect.

而且我特別支持他，因為他不僅僅是一個癌症的倖存者，而且他已經證明了他已經回到了他之前的位置，也就是我們認為他將是一個潛在的職業選手。

Love Shaka Smart but do not love his hair this year.

喜歡夏卡智能，但不喜歡他今年的髮型。

It's what's very odd.

這就是非常奇怪的地方。

Come on, you don't even have hair.

拜託，你連頭髮都沒有。

How can Christine called anybody out on hairs to go outside and talk to Seth and Fonds and usually bald?

克莉絲汀怎麼能叫任何人出毛，去外面和賽斯和芬茲說話，而且通常是光頭？

And I feel like we had a thing going and then he decided to grow the throw.

而且我覺得我們本來是有事情的，然後他決定長投。

But somebody from Texas did Did, um, tag me in something this week cause I was trolling shock a little bit and he said, Fear the froze.

但有人從德克薩斯做了，嗯，標記我的東西 這個星期，因為我是巨魔震驚一點點，他說，害怕凍結。

So I was like, OK, I don't know.

所以我當時想，好吧，我不知道。

I like the time that I, like, grow the throw like I feel like I e mean you're either liberation or rhyme.

我喜歡的時候，我，喜歡，增長的扔像我覺得我e的意思是你要麼解放，要麼韻。

Okay, so I feel like I'm the one that's talking about top 10 teams that have taken Els.

好吧，所以我覺得我才是那個說著拿下艾爾斯的十大球隊的人。

But Tennessee was playing pretty well before they lost to Florida on Tuesday.

但田納西州在週二輸給佛羅里達州之前，表現得相當不錯。

So what do you think?

你覺得怎麼樣？

Contender or pretender?

競爭者還是裝逼者？

Pretender?

偽裝者？

Uh, defensively, they are contender Offensively, they are a pretender, and I think that's the big problem for this thing.

呃，防守上，他們是競爭者 進攻上，他們是偽裝者，我想這是這個事情的大問題。

Tennessee volunteer team is too often is the case.

田納西州的志願者團隊太經常是這樣。

They rely so much on their defense that it wears down over the course of a contest and We've seen them multiple times now this season, Uh, struggle, whether it was with Florida this week or whether it was with Alabama, and they're one matchup against Alabama that they'll have all season long.

他們太依賴他們的防守了，以至於在比賽的過程中，他們的防守會被磨損，我們已經看到他們本賽季多次掙扎，無論是本週與佛羅里達的比賽，還是與阿拉巴馬的比賽，他們對阿拉巴馬的比賽，整個賽季都會有。

Alabama lit him up.

阿拉巴馬州點燃了他。

Now, Granted, Alabama's been lighting everybody up.

現在，Granted，阿拉巴馬州已經把所有人都點燃了。

They dropped 23 3 pointers against L s U earlier this week, but this Tennessee team, the inconsistencies at the offensive end, the lack of a go to scorer when you need a bucket that concerns me as far as their ability to compete and win a national championship.

他們在本週早些時候對陣L s U的比賽中投下了23個三分球，但這支田納西州的球隊，在進攻端不穩定，當你需要扣籃時缺乏一個去得分的人，這讓我擔心他們的競爭和贏得全國冠軍的能力。

All right, it is early in the history of this show, but so far I could tell you that we spent a lot of time last week praising Michigan.

好吧，現在是這個節目歷史上的早期，但到目前為止，我可以告訴你，我們上週花了很多時間讚揚密歇根州。

This week they lost.

這周他們輸了。

All right, so maybe we're the curse.

好吧，所以也許我們是詛咒。

I don't know.

我不知道。

I love what Juwan Howard's team is all about.

我愛朱萬-霍華德的團隊是什麼。

They've got great balance.

他們有很好的平衡。

They're one of only two teams in college basketball to rank inside the top 10 in offense and defense of efficiency.

他們是大學籃球中僅有的兩支進攻和防守效率排名前十以內的球隊之一。

The other team, the team that we want swag from failure.

另一個團隊，我們要從失敗中獲得的團隊。

So I mean, that's pretty good company to be part you just put yourself in our swag battle.

所以我的意思是，這是相當不錯的公司的一部分 你只是把自己在我們的贓物戰。

Well, look, I've heard that your co host get swag and you don't.

聽著 我聽說你的搭檔能得到獎品 而你卻沒有 Well, look, I've heard that your co host get swag and you don't.

Never mind that Hunter Dickinson is outstanding.

不要緊，亨特-迪金森很出色。

Great size.

大尺寸。

They can play through him.

他們可以通過他來玩。

He's one of the most dominant freshman that we have in the game.

他是我們比賽中最有統治力的新生之一。

And, like Texas, they have great length on the week.

而且，和德州一樣，他們在本週有很大的長度。

Question mark comes from consistency at the guard play, but I don't think there's much of a question there.

問號來自於後衛打法的一致性，但我覺得這裡面沒有什麼問題。

This team defends.

這支球隊防守。

They share the ball.

他們分享球。

They're tough, they rebound.

他們很強硬，他們反彈。

I love what Jawan Howard is building at Michigan.

我喜歡賈文-霍華德在密歇根州的建設。

All right, let's give some love to the A A C Houston on a five game winning streak there.

好了，讓我們給A A C休斯頓隊一些愛，在那裡取得五連勝。

Defensively, they are a contender offensively.

Uh, not so much like I love Marcus Sasser, and when he's going, he is fantastic.

呃，沒有那麼多，就像我喜歡馬庫斯・薩瑟， 當他走，他是夢幻般的。

He's a good as really any player in the American Conference this year.

他是今年美職聯中真正的好球員。

Which is crazy because Caleb Mills, who transferred out, was the preseason picked to be conference player of the year.

這很瘋狂，因為轉出的Caleb Mills是預選賽選出的年度最佳球員。

I love this team's defense.

我喜歡這支球隊的防守。

I love their ability to rebound.

我喜歡他們的反彈能力。

That's good enough to win him a couple of games in the tournament.

這足以讓他在比賽中贏得幾場比賽。

But eventually you're going to have to score the ball at an elite level.

但最終你還是要以精英的水準去得分。

They are not consistent enough.

它們不夠一致。

This team is very similar to me as Tennessee.

這支球隊和我很像田納西。

That makes him a top 10 team, an elite eight caliber team.

這樣一來，他就成了前十名的球隊，八大口徑的精英球隊。

I just don't see them as a Final Four national champion.

我只是不認為他們是四強賽全國冠軍。

Well, it's not necessarily a great year to be a college basketball blue blood, but let's take a look.

好吧，今年不一定是大學籃球藍血的好年景，但我們來看看。

One of them next.

下一個是他們中的一個。

Number nine Kansas.

記住，他們要在東部時間今天中午在ESPN上對陣俄克拉荷馬。

So do you see him as a title contender or pretender?

那麼你認為他是冠軍爭奪者還是假裝者？

Fitzy.

菲特茲。

We're talking about the Jayhawks coming off of back to back losses inside conference play.

我們說的是Jayhawks隊在聯賽中背靠背輸掉了比賽。

That doesn't happen very often, but I'm still buying them.

這種情況不常發生，但我還是會買。

I'm still saying Contender, and here's why.

They were down, 18 were playing horrible in Oklahoma State, rallied to take the lead in that game toe.

Fumble it away.

摸索著走。

Disappointing, but yet fixable.

令人失望，但卻可以解決。

You look at the game against Baylor.

你看對貝勒的比賽。

They held everybody in check except for Jared Butler.

除了賈裡德-巴特勒，他們把所有人都控制住了。

Jared Butler killed him, and from the outside there were five uncontested wide open three point shots that he had.

賈裡德-巴特勒殺了他，外線有五次無視的大範圍三分出手，他。

That's a breakdown in communication and coverages.

這就是溝通和掩護的故障。

You can fix that.

你可以解決這個問題。

Yes, they don't have joke as a bookie underneath this year.

是的，他們今年下面沒有笑話作為莊家。

That's a problem.

這是個問題。

You can't protect the rim, I get it.

你不能保護邊框，我明白。

But this team is still talented enough to make a great run in the tournament.

不過這支球隊的天賦還是很高的，可以在比賽中大展拳腳。

They rely a lot more on their youth than they have in recent years, and they have to shoot the ball consistently.

他們比近幾年更依賴年輕人，他們必須穩定地投籃。

And that's where you look at Christian Brown and just how much he's impacted this team this year, as well as Jalen Wilson, who for the first four weeks of the season was one of the breakout stars of college basketball, their fourth in the Big 12 this season.

這就是你看克里斯蒂安-布朗以及他對這支球隊今年的影響有多大，還有杰倫-威爾遜，在賽季前四周，他是大學籃球的突破明星之一，他們本賽季在12大聯盟中排名第四。

But I'll be one to tell you that the Big 12 is one of the best.

但我要告訴你，12強賽是最好的之一。

Best Conferences took her 10 and took 11 minutes to get Big 12 praise carpets to playing.

最好的會議花了她10，花了11分鐘，讓12大讚美地毯玩。

All right, well, the last team number 10.

好了，好了，最後一隊10號。

Wisconsin.

威斯康星州。

There are 12 and three after winning two in a row after getting blown out by Michigan.

在被密歇根大學爆出兩連勝後，有12和3。

So what do you think, Contender or pretender?

你覺得呢，競爭者還是裝逼者？

Why are you focusing on the negative here?

你為什麼要把注意力放在負面的地方？

I mean, you're talking about Iowa losing Indiana.

我是說，你說的是愛荷華輸給印第安納。

I'm a half full kind of guy.

我是那種半滿的人。

Like what are we doing here?

就像我們在這裡做什麼？

Like, you know what contender?

比如，你知道什麼是競爭者嗎？

They got blown out against Michigan.

他們在對陣密歇根的比賽中被打爆了。

It was a wiping on the floor in that game.

在那場比賽中，簡直是擦槍走火。

There's no doubt about it, But that's not who Greg Guards team is.

毋庸置疑，但這不是格雷格衛隊的風格。

Greg Guards team controls the tempo every single game except for the Michigan game.

除了密歇根的比賽外，格雷格-瓜衛隊每場比賽都會控制節奏。

Didn't control much that night at all, but they can play inside out.

那天晚上根本沒怎麼控制，但他們可以打內線。

They got great versatility with their front court.

他們的前場有很強的多面性。

It's one of the best front courts in all of college basketball.

這是整個大學籃球界最好的前場之一。

Demetrick Price has become a very consistent score from them on the outside, and I think his offensive emergence makes me believe that, especially in the tournament, where teams aren't as familiar with your style of play, not as familiar with your sets as we see in conference play, I think this is a team that's going to cause a lot of problems when we get to the N C double A tournament.

德米特里克-普萊斯已經成為他們在外線非常穩定的得分，我認為他的進攻出現讓我相信，特別是在錦標賽中，球隊對你的比賽風格沒有那麼熟悉，沒有像我們在會議比賽中看到的那樣熟悉你的套路，我認為這是一支球隊，當我們進入N C雙A錦標賽時，會造成很多問題。

All right, so in the spirit of trying to get more swag, let's talk more about Baylor.

好了，本著多拿點錢的精神，我們多聊聊貝勒吧。

They got the big matchup.

他們得到了大對決。
