And when you look at what they're trying to do in Brooklyn, what do you make of where they're at right now?

當你看到他們在布魯克林的努力時，你怎麼看他們現在的處境？

With James Harden as well as Kyrie and Kevin, I would deem it the East Coast Big Three.

有了詹姆斯-哈登以及凱里和凱文，我就認為是東岸三巨頭。

Um, I'm really happy with where they're at.

嗯，我真的很高興 與他們在哪裡。

I think you saw the other day like this is gonna be a constant process.

我想你前幾天也看到了，像這樣會是一個不斷的過程。

And even while it's a process, it doesn't mean that they can't win at the highest level.

雖然這是一個過程，但也不代表他們不能在最高級別上取勝。

Miami's first year would be considered a process, but they lost in the finals.

邁阿密的第一年會被認為是一個過程，但他們在總決賽中輸了。

Um, so I think that you're gonna see bumps along the way.

嗯，所以我認為你會看到沿途的顛簸。

But it's less about the three of them and more about the fact that, like in order to get three players of that caliber, your roster gets in.

但這不是他們三個人的問題，更多的是，比如為了得到三個這樣的球員，你的名冊就會進入。

Then when your roster gets thin, players step up in the roles they're not used to, and players have to learn how to play with players of their caliber.

那麼當你的陣容變得單薄的時候，球員們就會在他們不習慣的角色上站出來，而球員們也要學會如何和他們這種級別的球員打球。

And, you know, and you see Kevin, James and Chi will figure it out when you're at that level in that level of I Q.

而且，你知道，你看Kevin，James和Chi會想出辦法的，當你的IQ達到那個水準的時候。

basketball.

籃球。

I mean, Kyrie is more than happy and you saw it to get right off the ball and let James have the rock and and Chi still find ample shots.

我的意思是，凱里更高興，你看到了，讓詹姆斯直接下場，讓詹姆斯有了石頭，而且奇哥還能找到充足的出手機會。

Katie still finds ample shots, and they're just getting better.

凱蒂還是能找到充足的鏡頭，而且他們的表現越來越好。

Like, you know, Katie definitely doesn't think he's all the way back, which is frightening.

就像，你知道，凱蒂絕對不認為他是所有的方式回來，這是可怕的。

Speaking of action, people be surprised that he is back and playing at the level that he's playing.

說到行動，大家是不是很驚訝，他回來了，而且打出了現在的水準。

That despite an injury that most people thought he wouldn't be able to be.

儘管大多數人認為他有傷在身，但這。

Kevin Durant coming back on that injury?

凱文-杜蘭特傷愈復出？

Um, well, first of all, I think in J you know this, like within our circle, there was a unanimous thought like, All right, so it's a year and you'll be back in a year and you'll be Katie.

嗯，好吧，首先，我認為在J 你知道這一點，像我們的圈子裡， 有一個一致的想法一樣， 好吧，所以這是一年，你會回來的一年 你會是凱蒂。

It was never even a thought.

甚至連想都沒想過。

The reality is what the reality is.

現實就是現實的樣子。

I think we all thought his game, and everyone said that his game wasn't predicated on, like if he was to lose, whatever a quarter inch of a step right.

我想我們都認為他的比賽，大家都說他的比賽不是前提，比如說如果他要輸了，什麼四分之一寸的步子都是對的。

The difference between Katie and most of the world is that never could compromise hard work.

凱蒂和世界上大多數人的不同之處在於，永遠無法妥協的努力工作。

And you know that and I saw in Kevin's eyes the day he had the injury.

你知道的，在凱文受傷的那天，我從他的眼睛裡看到了。

He was the calmest person in the room, and that same kind of mentality he took throughout the whole thing stay.

他是全場最冷靜的人，這種心態他也是全程留。

He has an insane ability to put blinders on and stay in the moment.

他有一種瘋狂的能力，可以戴上眼罩，呆在當下。

Stay in the drill.

留在演習中。

You know, like when a normal person has an injury and they go to rehab and the doctor says, Look, after the session when you go home, won't you do like 12 more of those leg lifts?

你知道，就像一個正常的人有一個傷害，他們去康復和醫生說，你看，在會議結束後，當你回家，你不會做像12個更多的那些抬腿？

And you're like, All right, I'm not doing them shit.

你就像，好吧，我不做他們的狗屎。

I'm never doing that.

我從來沒有這樣做。

Que de listens toe every single thing, the doctor tells him.

醫生告訴他，Que de listenes toe every single thing, the doctor tells him.

He pushes himself when he's by himself.

自己一個人的時候，他就會逼迫自己。

He's stretching muscles.

他在拉伸肌肉。

That, he read, could help the the rehab process.

他讀到，這可以幫助康復過程。

So you know, I'm not surprised and his I Q.

所以你知道，我並不驚訝，他的I Q。

For the game is off the charts.

對於遊戲是脫胎換骨。

Is there any way that with the direction the Knicks air going in and I know it's slightly better, But you know what I mean?

有什麼辦法，與尼克斯隊的空氣方向去英寸我知道這是稍微好一點，但你知道我的意思嗎？

The way the Knicks were going, the way the Nets could be going any chance in hell, the Nets could ever be bigger than the Knicks.

尼克斯的發展方式，網隊的發展方式，網隊可能會有任何機會，網隊永遠比尼克斯大。

Well, so in the moment.

嗯，所以在當下。

I'm dying to hear how you answer this one.

我很想聽聽你怎麼回答這個問題。

Rich.

豐富的。

Yeah, because, well, this is an easy one in the moment, obviously, right?

是啊，因為，嗯，這是一個簡單的一個 在這一刻，很明顯，對不對？

Like if the Mets or the Jets get Thio Championship Game of the Finals like they're gonna take the coverage in New York for that moment, they're not the better and bigger team that's so ingrained in the culture in New York over such a long period of time.

就像如果大都會隊或噴氣機隊得到Thio總決賽的冠軍賽，就像他們要拿下紐約那一刻的報道一樣，他們不是更好更大的球隊，在這麼長的時間裡，他們在紐約的文化中根深蒂固。

There's not much you can do about that.

你也沒辦法。

But the one thing about New York similar to L.

但紐約有一點與L類似。

A is like there's not a ceiling.

A就像沒有天花板一樣。

There's not a limit to the amount of fans.

粉絲的數量沒有限制。

So I think the Nets are going to be a global phenomenon over the next few years.

所以我認為網隊在未來幾年內會成為一個全球性的現象。

A bit the way the Warriors were the heat, etcetera.

有點像勇士隊的熱度，等等。

And I think that they're gonna be a major major force in New York from a brand perspective and just taking the attention of the city in the long term.

我認為，從品牌的角度來看，他們會成為紐約的主要力量，從長遠來看，他們會吸引城市的注意力。

So I think the Nets will be New York's team, not us, the Knicks.

所以我認為網隊會是紐約的球隊，而不是我們尼克斯隊。

But Brooklyn will carve out their own lane, and I think that's the thing about the MBA is this is a booming entertainment business.

但布魯克林會開闢出自己的通道，我認為MBA的特點是這是一個蓬勃發展的娛樂業。

And like from a fan perspective, they don't see it that way.

而像從粉絲的角度來看，他們並不這麼認為。

But the reality is is like the Nets have their own aesthetic, their own arena.

但現實就像網隊有自己的審美，自己的舞臺。

They have an owner that's been insanely successful, and they're now building a foundation which started with, like, playing hard and playing together.

他們有一個瘋狂成功的老闆，他們現在正在建立一個基礎，而這個基礎是從，比如，努力打球，一起打球開始的。

Now they've attracted three of the biggest players in the world.

現在他們已經吸引了世界上三個最大的玩家。

And that doesn't just go away like the stigma around the heat.

而這並不像熱度周圍的成見那樣消失。

Even though they've been successful post LeBron like, you know, LeBron Riley.

即使他們已經成功後勒布朗一樣，你知道，勒布朗萊利。

They put that thing on forever.

他們把那個東西放在永遠。

So that's what I think is gonna happen with the Nets.

所以我認為網隊也會這樣。

And you just have to big brands in New York.

而你只要到紐約的大品牌。

Richard here?

理查德在嗎？

Yeah, I'm here.

是的，我在這裡。

Just wanna let you know the Clippers will never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever be relevant in Los Angeles.

我只是想讓你知道快船隊永遠，永遠，永遠，永遠，永遠不會在洛杉磯有意義。

Just saying, But no relevant ever, ever, ever gonna be the Lakers.

只是說，但沒有相關的永遠，永遠，永遠會是湖人隊。

But they're not relevant.

但他們沒有關係。

No, no, I'm just being relevant.

不，不，我只是在做相關的事情。

No, no, no, no, no.

不，不，不，不，不。

Yo, I will bet you on that key because when you get owner with that money and that charisma and you have a city of Los Angeles, if you win, this is room for two, bro.

喲，我跟你賭那把鑰匙，因為當你得到老闆的錢和魅力，你有一個洛杉磯市，如果你贏了，這是兩個人的房間，兄弟。

It's not gonna be the Lakers.

不會是湖人隊的。
