I could carry my career well into my forties and be that guy that plays like the oldest player in the modern era to play in the N B.

我可以把我的職業生涯一直延續到四十歲，成為那個像現代最老的球員一樣在N B打球的人。

A.

A.

Is Kevin.

是凱文。

Well, I guess I'm sorry.

好吧，我想我很抱歉。

I didn't mean to do that to you.

我不是故意對你這樣的。

Kevin Willis, 44 years old.

凱文-威利斯，44歲。

Uh, and right now in the league, you only have 1 40 year old.

呃，現在在聯盟裡，你只有一個40歲的人。

That's Udonis.

那是Udonis.

Haslem really doesn't play for the Heat, but he's there.

哈斯勒姆確實不為熱火隊效力，但他在那裡。

LeBron's the fifth oldest player in the NBA right now.

勒布朗是現在NBA第五老的球員。

I don't know if anybody knew that, but still, LeBron's response was an interesting one.

不知道有沒有人知道，但勒布朗的迴應還是很有意思的。

Take a listen.

聽一聽吧

I don't know how long I'm gonna play the game.

我不知道我還要玩多久的遊戲。

You know, I don't know how much more I'll be able to give to the game, but you know, the way I feel right now, we'll see what happens.

你知道，我不知道我還能為遊戲付出多少，但你知道，我現在的感覺，我們會看到發生什麼。

But I have No, I have no timetable on it.

但我沒有，我沒有時間表。

You know.

你知道的

I have.

我有。

No, you know, no year of Okay.

不，你知道，沒有一年的好。

Do I wanna play so 30 this or 40 that you know, the game will let me know when it's time.

我想玩這麼30個這個還是40個，你知道的，遊戲會讓我知道什麼時候到。

And, uh, way we figured out there.

還有，呃，我們想出的辦法。

That part's true.

那部分是真的。

The game will let you know.

遊戲會讓你知道。

It always does.

它總是這樣。

Doesn't it Part?

難道不是嗎？

It does.

確實如此。

It depends on how he wants to be.

就看他想怎麼做了。

Does he want to leave and be the great player?

他想離開，成為偉大的球員嗎？

Do you wanna be the old, older, aging, injured player like Larry Bird with the bad back?

你想成為像拉里-伯德那樣年老色衰的傷員嗎？

Or does he want to be one of those?

還是他想成為其中的一員？

Vince Carter became coming up with Zach, and I think, you know, we've already seen him make some subtle adjustments, aligning himself with a start that I think that could be a just as good as he is and Anthony Davis and saying, Hey, young fella, go ahead and carry some of this low.

文斯-卡特成為了和扎克一起上來的，我想，你知道，我們已經看到他做了一些微妙的調整，把自己和一個我認為可能和他一樣好的首發和安東尼-戴維斯對齊，並說，嘿，年輕的小夥子，去吧，帶著一些這個低。

I don't need to carry all these bags no more.

我不需要再背這些包了。

So in the words of Erykah Badu, put some of those bags bag lady, you gonna hurt your back carrying all those bags like that.

所以，用Erykah Badu的話說，把那些包包女士，你會傷害你的背部攜帶所有這些包包這樣。

Now the what it's always been is the belief was that LeBron would stick around long enough to be teammate Brownie Brownie with the sun Come 2023 is his is his expected draft year, and he's become a prospect that there's enough reason to believe that perhaps he could become an MBA pick.

現在一直以來的是相信勒布朗會堅持足夠長的時間與太陽做隊友布朗尼布朗尼來2023年是他的是他的預計選秀年，他已經成為一個前景，有足夠的理由相信，也許他可以成為一個MBA選秀。

Whether it's a lottery, whether it's a second, who knows.

是不是抽籤，是不是秒殺，誰也不知道。

But the point is, is that the belief is he's probably got that kind of future.

但問題是，是相信他可能有這樣的未來。

And maybe LeBron wants toe have that moment where he's a free agent the same year Bonnie would be drafted.

而也許勒布朗希望能有這樣的時刻，他是自由球員，同年邦尼會被選中。

And so okay, I'll wherever he whoever drafts him, I'll go play there will do that for a year and then I'll call it Ah, career.

所以，好吧，我會無論他誰選他，我會去那裡玩 會做一年，然後我會打電話給它啊，職業生涯。

That could be what he wants to do.

這可能是他想做的事。

That That would be special, though.

這將是特別的，雖然。

And he's a guy that seems like he has a a knowledge of history and we knowing that, like Ken Griffey, you know, play with senior play with his son and how special that could be to make itself one of the very few fathers son duels to kind of play the same sport.

他是一個傢伙，似乎他有一個歷史的知識，我們知道，像肯格里菲，你知道，玩與高級玩他的兒子和如何特殊的，可能是使自己的極少數父子對決之一，種玩相同的運動。

Same team that that could be amazing.

同一支球隊，那可能是驚人的。

It could be, but because LeBron keeps himself in such amazing shape, we always I always should say, his best ability, durability.

有可能，但因為勒布朗讓自己保持著如此驚人的狀態，我們總是我總應該說，他最擅長的能力，耐久性。

He just and I'm trying to jinx him.

他只是... ...我想讓他倒黴。

I've said it many times, and he's never It's never happened yet.

我說過很多次了，他從來沒有... ...還沒有發生過。

He never gets hurt.

他從來沒有受到傷害。

Yeah, he never gets hurt.

是啊，他從來沒有受到傷害。

And that is he's just the way he's built and also, more importantly, the way takes care of himself.

還有就是他就是他的身材，也是更重要的，就是他照顧自己的方式。

So there's no reason to think he couldn't play into his forties.

所以沒有理由認為他不能打到四十多歲。

But would you argue that the n B A game and the grind of playing multiple games a week, the travel, everything else is a lot different?

但你會不會認為n B A遊戲和一週打多場比賽的辛苦，旅行，其他一切都有很大的不同？

I know NFL games.

我知道NFL比賽。

A brutal game.

一場殘酷的比賽。

Yeah, but it's once a week.

是的，但它是一個星期一次。

And for a quarterback, it's probably MAWR, you know, like I'm not gonna say easier, but it's definitely something that would be, uh, you have more of a chance to recover than the MBA.

而對於一個四分衛來說，這可能是MAWR，你知道，就像我不會說更容易，但它絕對是，呃，你有更多的機會恢復比MBA。

Now.

現在就去

We talked about yesterday.

我們昨天說過了。

The NBA average careers.

NBA平均職業。

4.5 years.

4.5年。

The NFL's is 3.3, according to ESPN.

據ESPN報道，NFL的是3.3。

So both of them Yeah, that's only because Breeze, Rivers and Brady pushed the average Europe way.

所以他們兩個是啊，那只是因為布里斯、裡弗斯和布雷迪推崇歐洲平均方式。

Probably, but But do you just feel like LeBron would be able to walk away from the game even if he still was at his peak?

可能吧，但是，你就覺得勒布朗即使還在巔峰期，也能從比賽中走出來嗎？

Like like Jordan?

比如像喬丹？

You could just tell, couldn't carry a team anymore.

你就知道，不能再帶隊了。

It just he still could score.

只是他還能得分。

You could get you to 20 but it just you could see he just wasn't that same player.

你可以讓你到20歲，但你可以看到他只是不一樣的球員。

But LeBron look at his numbers this year.

但勒布朗看看他今年的數據。

He just had a triple double last night.

他昨晚剛拿到了三雙。

He's on the best team in the league or arguably one of the best teams in the league.

他在聯盟中最好的球隊，或者可以說是聯盟中最好的球隊之一。

Who could repeat is a champion.

誰能重複是一個冠軍。

He's 36 at 30 and and it doesn't look like he's slowing down anytime.

他30歲時已經36歲了，而且看起來他隨時都不會慢下來。

So is there a feeling like it's he could just walk away even if he was at his peak?

所以，有沒有一種感覺，就是他即使在巔峰時期，也可以一走了之？

I don't know.

我不知道。

I mean, he has so many interests outside of basketball, and I think if anything is gonna put him away, it's gonna be his desire to do those things and kind of separated game on top.

我的意思是，他有這麼多的興趣之外的籃球，我認為，如果有什麼是要去把他帶走，這會是他的願望做這些事情和種分離的遊戲之上。

Yeah, I think if he gets catches Jordan in that time, that I think he can walk away.

是的，我想如果他能趕上喬丹在那個時候， 我認為他可以走了。

But I think as long as that Jordan six is hanging around, yeah, I think that he's trying to do that.

但我覺得只要那個喬丹六號還在附近，是的，我覺得他是想這麼做。

He's trying to be the all time scoring all time winner, not just a guy who went toe to the most finals you know, he's trying to catch some guys, and it's crazy because we talk about Jordan because we know that's the standard of great players.

他試圖成為歷史上所有得分的歷史冠軍，而不僅僅是一個人去了最多的總決賽，你知道，他試圖趕上一些人，這很瘋狂，因為我們談論喬丹，因為我們知道這是偉大球員的標準。

But we know Robert Ory has more wins and all that type of stuff.

但我們知道羅伯特-奧裡的勝率更高，以及諸如此類的東西。

And we know that.

而我們知道，。

Yeah, the main, the main.

是的，主要的，主要的。

The main guy, right?

主人是吧？

Russell obviously is gonna be impossible to catch exactly.

拉塞爾顯然是不可能完全抓住的。

But you know, Jordan za gold standard for basketball, and I think that he's fighting for that.

但你知道，喬丹za籃球的黃金標準，我認為他正在為之奮鬥。

Well, he's one.

嗯，他是一個。

What is he if he gets away, he's too away.

他是什麼人，如果他跑了，他就太遠了。

But, I mean, they're still one of the favorites to win again this year, right?

但是，我的意思是，他們仍然是今年再次奪冠的熱門之一，對嗎？

Yeah, they are.

是的，他們是。

If he wins this year, if he wins this year, now it becomes that chase right now because it does that Tim Duncan, Tim Duncan and Kobe and Kobe.

如果他今年贏了，如果他今年贏了，現在就變成了現在的那個追逐，因為它確實是那個蒂姆-鄧肯，蒂姆-鄧肯和科比和科比。

Right, but and magic like like like that.

對，但是和魔法一樣喜歡這樣。

I guess it's just point I'm trying to make is like, I wonder what would be the carrot for him, and I think that's what it would be if he can get 1/5.

我想我想說的是，我不知道他的胡蘿蔔會是什麼，我想如果他能拿到1/5的話，就是這樣。

You got to stick for that six, don't you?

你必須堅持那六點，不是嗎？

You have to, because he really wants to put an explanation point on that conversation.

你必須這樣做，因為他真的想給那段對話加上一個解釋點。

That debate between he but to be 23 to beat him, he needs three.

他之間的那場辯論，但要想在23歲時擊敗他，他需要三。

Tying them is not.

綁住他們不是。

I think you don't think tying it would be enough.

我想你覺得綁起來還不夠。

Nah, you gotta beat him.

不，你要打敗他。

You gotta get three right now.

你現在就得去找三個人

Like, right now.

就像，現在。

If you wanna be to go toe in football, you got to get seven.
