When this question was originally phrase in the email, it said better than Menas Brooklyn Nets.

當初這個問題在郵件中的措辭，說得比梅納斯布魯克林籃網好。

And so I just want to make sure that that part still makes it in, or else the context is completely lost.

所以我只是想確保這部分內容還能進入，否則就完全失去了背景。

Yes, this is a question about the Jazz, which might be very exciting to people who accused the media of having coastal biases.

是的，這是一個關於爵士隊的問題，這可能會讓那些指責媒體有沿海偏見的人非常興奮。

Here's the thing, Pablo probably and maybe even mean.

事情是這樣的，巴勃羅可能，甚至可能是故意的。

It will find a way to make this into a question about the Jazz's opponent last night.

它會想辦法讓這變成一個關於昨晚爵士隊對手的問題。

The Lakers.

湖人隊。

That's why we're finally having the conversation we should be having.

這就是為什麼我們終於有了我們應該有的對話。

Which is the conversation being had by coaches across the league.

這也是全聯盟教練們的對話。

Which is what the Jazz Air doing this season is awesome.

這就是爵士航空本賽季的表現，很厲害。

They beat the Lakers last night by double digits.

他們昨晚以兩位數的優勢擊敗了湖人。

They routed them in the last two weeks.

他們在過去的兩個星期裡擊潰了他們。

They've beat the Lakers, the Bucks, the Celtics, a lot of teams that included the Celtics to make myself feel better.

他們已經擊敗了湖人、籃網、凱爾特人，很多球隊，包括凱爾特人，讓我感覺更好。

Ah, lot of teams that air considered very good, and they beat them by a margin.

啊，很多空氣被認為很好的球隊，他們卻以一定的優勢擊敗了他們。

That's in a knave ridge of the double digits.

這是在兩位數的蝸牛脊。

They're doing very, very well.

他們做得非常非常好。

They've won 15 straight at home.

他們在主場已經取得了15連勝。

This is a team that has multiple pieces that seem to be working together in a way that's very effective and they're hitting threes.

這支球隊有多人合作，看起來很有效果，他們在打三分。

They're making more three attempts and then they're making the threes.

他們在做更多的三分嘗試，然後他們在做三分。

That's just math.

這只是數學。

I'm not good at math, but I know that three is bigger than two and that it adds up a lot quicker.

我數學不好，但我知道三比二大，而且加起來快很多。

That's basically what it comes down to.

基本上就是這個意思。

There are great and fun team to watch.

有偉大而有趣的團隊可以看。

Respected coaches are comparing them to teams that ended up going on to succeed in ways that we still talk about.

受人尊敬的教練正在將他們與那些最終以我們仍在談論的方式走向成功的球隊進行比較。

Steve Kerr is comparing them to what the Warriors used to be.

Brad Stevens is comparing them to the 13 14 Spurs.

布拉德-史蒂文斯將他們與13 14年的馬刺隊進行比較。

So these are things we should be paying attention to and talking about.

所以這些都是我們應該關注和討論的。

But like I said, I'm sure Papa is gonna make this about the Lakers now.

但就像我說的，我相信爸爸現在一定會把湖人隊的事情說出來。

They don't have Anthony Davis.

他們沒有安東尼-戴維斯。

Well.

好吧

Katie Nolan.

凱蒂-諾蘭

First off, thank you for joining the analytics revolution.

首先，感謝你加入分析革命。

Three.

三號

Being bigger than two is actually the fundamental precept of all of our nursery on the MBA side.

大於二，其實是我們MBA這邊所有託兒所的基本戒律。

More than that, I do want to give my you know, like respect to the Jazz because the argument for the Jazz is incredibly strong.

更多的是，我確實想給我的你知道，像尊重爵士隊，因為爵士隊的論點是非常強大的。

There's no doubt that in the regular season right now, they are the best team.

毫無疑問，在現在的常規賽中，他們是最好的球隊。

They are 20 games above 500.

他們在500場以上的比賽有20場。

They have been up by 20 points 20 times this season.

本賽季他們已經20次領先20分。

They're the only team in the league to be top five on offensive efficiency ratings and defensive efficiency ratings.

他們是聯盟中唯一一支進攻效率評價和防守效率評價都是前五的球隊。

No one is as balanced or as good.

沒有人是平衡的，也沒有人是好的。

No one has an offensive defense that is this dynamic.

沒有人的進攻防守是這樣的動態。

The main counter argument, though, and the reason why I'm not picking them to be the n B A champion this season, unfortunately, is also because they are the Utah Jazz.

不過，主要的反駁理由，也是我不選擇他們成為本賽季n B A冠軍的原因，很不幸，也是因為他們是猶他爵士隊。

And it's not just because they're named the Jazz and they're in Utah that has never made any sense to anybody.

這不僅僅是因為他們叫爵士隊，而且他們在猶他州，這對任何人來說都沒有任何意義。

It's simply because those two best players that they have Donovan, Mitchell, Rudy go bare, excellent.

只是因為他們有多諾萬、米切爾、魯迪這兩個最好的球員，所以才會裸露出來，優秀。

Once an offensive dynamo, the other might be the best offensive player in the league.

曾經的進攻動力，對方可能是聯盟中最好的進攻球員。

Second, Ben Simmons.

第二，本-西蒙斯。

Perhaps the issue is that there is still a tier below the superstars like and Katie Nolan.

也許問題是，比起和凱蒂-諾蘭這樣的超級明星，還是差了一個層次。

Yes, take your victory lap, Anthony Davis and LeBron James, and we get to the playoffs.

是的，帶著你的勝利圈，安東尼-戴維斯和勒布朗-詹姆斯，我們就能進入季後賽。

It's still that kind of math that I keep on leaning up.

還是這種數學，我一直在往上靠。

That's the core question that makes this jazz team so interesting, because their success seems to fly in the face of everything we have learned about the N B A over the last few years, which is that it is worth sacrificing death in order to build a super team or a Big Two or a Big Three.

這就是這支爵士隊如此有趣的核心問題，因為他們的成功似乎違背了我們過去幾年對N B A的一切認識，那就是為了打造一支超級球隊或二巨頭或三巨頭，犧牲死亡是值得的。

Meanwhile, the Jazz legitimately seem like a team where the sum is greater than the parts.

同時，爵士隊也合法地看起來像是一支總和大於部分的球隊。

As you guys have painstakingly laid out, they rank in the top three in just about every statistical category.

正如你們苦心鋪墊的那樣，他們在幾乎所有的統計類別中都排在前三名。

They're really fun.

他們真的很有趣。

Toe watch Mike Conley, Donovan Mitchell, two of the most likable players in the N b A.

Toe watch Mike Conley, Donovan Mitchell, two of the most likable players in the N b A.

Rudy Gobert is also there.

魯迪-戈伯特也在那裡。

And yet I cannot help but feel like I've seen this movie before, though if it was an actual movie, the band of scrappy underdogs would win.

但我卻不禁覺得這部電影我好像看過，不過如果是一部真正的電影，這群拼命三郎的弱者會贏。

But in the n B A, they do not.

但在n B A中，他們沒有。

In recent years, Steve Kerr compared them to the Warriors.

近年來，史蒂夫-科爾將他們與勇士隊進行了比較。

The Warriors had superstars.

勇士隊有超級巨星。

I love Donovan Mitchell.

我愛多諾萬-米切爾

I'm not sure he belongs in the same tear as Anthony Davis or Kevin Durant.

我不確定他是否屬於和安東尼-戴維斯或凱文-杜蘭特一樣的撕裂。

of my beloved Nets.

我心愛的網隊的。

And when those two guys come back in the postseason, I just can't pick against them because of what we've seen in this league recently.

而當這兩個傢伙在季後賽中回來的時候，我就不能選擇反對他們，因為我們最近在這個聯盟中看到了什麼。

Yeah, that's spoken like a person who has thrown the weight of her name behind a team that built their entire thing on the value of superstars.

是啊，這話說得就像一個人把自己名字的重量扔到了一支球隊的背後，而這支球隊的一切都建立在超級明星的價值上。

So of course, you're going to say without superstars, you can't get it done.

所以，你當然會說，沒有超級明星，你就無法完成。

I think something that is absolutely not sports related, but absolutely relevant.

我覺得絕對與體育無關，但絕對相關的東西。

Here is the fact that Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert having a great relationship is part of what's able to power this team.

這裡，多諾萬-米切爾和魯迪-戈伯特的關係很好，這也是能夠為這支球隊提供動力的原因之一。

And they should not have that relationship.

而他們不應該有這種關係。

They shouldn't be speaking to one another, but they are, and they're communicating well.

他們不應該互相說話，但他們在說，而且交流得很好。

And to me, that is indication that this team is may be capable of doing stuff they should not be capable of doing.

而在我看來，這說明這支球隊可能有能力做一些他們不應該做的事情。

It is a shocking fact, Katie, almost as shocking as the fact that we're just letting Mina go on national television and say, my beloved Nets, we all just kind of nod now.

這是一個令人震驚的事實，凱蒂，幾乎就像我們讓米娜在國家電視臺上說，我親愛的網隊，我們現在都只是一種點頭。

Yeah, they just followed me back on Twitter.

是啊，他們剛剛在推特上關注了我。

Oh my God, She doesn't deserve it.

哦，我的上帝，她不應該得到它。

Take it back together back.

把它一起帶回去

It's a heart beat.

這是一種心跳。

She's using you.

她在利用你

She will dispose of you the second.

她會處置你的第二個。

You are no longer useful.

你已經沒有用了。
