And I don't think it has been fluid.

而且我認為它一直不流暢。

Actually, I think Joel Embiid took that lead early in the season and has never relinquished it.

事實上，我認為喬爾-恩比德在賽季初就取得了這種領先優勢，並且一直沒有放棄。

I think wire to wire.

我想是電線對電線。

So far, he's been the MVP of the NBA, by the way, just like you gave respect to Embiid.

到目前為止，他已經是NBA的MVP了，對了，就像你給恩比德的尊重一樣。

I'm not here to down Harden, I think Hardens playing the best basketball of his career.

我不是來貶低哈登的，我認為哈登打出了他職業生涯中最好的籃球。

And that's saying a whole lot because the guy is not only an M V P, but perennially, he is maybe deserving of the M V P.

這話說的很有道理，因為這傢伙不僅是個M V P，而且常年，他也許是當之無愧的M V P。

He's right there of the regular season.

他就在那裡的常規賽。

He's either the M V P or the runner up in the third place every year.

他每年不是M V P，就是第三名的亞軍。

I think this is the best he's ever played.

我覺得這是他打得最好的一次。

Um, he's been amazing.

嗯，他是驚人的。

But Stephen A.

但Stephen A．

He missed the first part of the season with the Nets.

他缺席了本賽季網隊的第一部分。

You know.

你知道的

Embiid has been with the Sixers the entire time and the Sixers have the best record in the conference, and the Sixers beat the Nets when they last played and they just beat Utah.

恩比德一直在六人隊，六人隊的戰績是全聯盟最好的，六人隊上一場比賽的時候擊敗了籃網隊，他們剛剛擊敗了猶他。

They did it because Joel Embiid will them back in the game down the stretch in the fourth quarter, and he took them to overtime with a run back.

他們之所以這麼做，是因為喬爾-恩比德在第四節的最後階段將他們帶回了賽場，他用一次跑動將他們帶到了加時賽。

Three.

三號

I mean, this dude is doing everything 40 and 19 and over time last night, but for the season 30 11.5 with a block and a half and Stephen A.

我的意思是，這傢伙做的一切40和19和超時昨晚，但對於本賽季30 11.5與塊半和斯蒂芬A。

That's just on the offensive end.

這只是在進攻端。

If you want to argue hardened because he's a floor general and by the way, LeBron I know it gets boring.

如果你想因為他是地板將軍而硬拗，順便說一句，勒布朗我知道會很無聊。

LeBron's right there every year because because of all the responsibility they have in the offense, that's fine.

勒布朗每年都在那裡，因為他們在進攻中承擔著所有的責任，這很好。

But let's stay to harden for a second because LeBron also defends.

但我們先留到硬朗，因為勒布朗也會防守。

Harden is an underrated defender.

哈登是一個被低估的後衛。

Like I'm almost on the verge of saying Hardens a pretty good defender.

就像我幾乎快要說哈登斯是個很好的防守者一樣。

But I don't know if I'm there yet, but he's certainly not a bad defender.

但我還不知道自己是否到了那裡，但他的防守能力肯定不差。

Joel Embiid might be legitimately the best defensive player in basketball.

喬爾-恩比德可能是籃球界合法的最佳防守球員。

He may have the greatest defensive impact in the NBA, so you got the offense, which at most is very close.

他可能是NBA中防守衝擊力最強的，所以你的進攻，最多就是非常接近。

Maybe it's emptied.

也許它被清空了。

Maybe it's hard and I won't fight you too hard.

也許很難，我也不會和你爭得太厲害。

If you say hardened on offense by a very, very little bit.

如果你說在進攻上硬生生的增加了非常非常多。

Even though Embiid efficiency numbers are better than hardens and everything.

即使恩比德效率數據比硬漢和一切。

I'm being students over 40% from three all that.

我被學生從三個所有的40%以上。

But on defense, it's not close.

但在防守上，卻不近人情。

So there's offense and there's defense and there's your team's record.

所以有進攻，有防守，還有你們球隊的戰績。

And there's the fact that M B has been there the whole season.

還有就是M B整個賽季都在那裡。

I can't as great as hard has been.

我不能像偉大的努力一直。

I can't make the argument for him over Embiid and and not over LeBron either.

我不能讓他超過恩比德，也不能讓他超過勒布朗。

I know Hardens got into a new team that's a big thing to show up in a new place and not miss a beat.

我知道哈登斯進入了一支新的球隊那是一件大事，在一個新的地方出現，而且不失時機。

Start dropping triple doubles with 30 points and wins.

開始丟三落四，30分就贏了。

I get it.

我明白了。

I get it.

我明白了。

But LeBron's missed one game this season for the Lakers and has been doing everything hard has been doing on offense and has been playing better defense.

但勒布朗本賽季為湖人隊缺席了一場比賽，在進攻上一直在努力的做著一切，而且防守也更好。

I can't give it to harden this year's M V P so far.

今年的M V P到目前為止，我還不能給它硬化。

Well, listen, I I hear where you're coming from with with Harden again.

好吧，聽著，我... ...我又聽到你對哈登的看法了。

If Kevin Durant was in there, I feel differently.

如果凱文-杜蘭特在裡面，我的感覺就不一樣了。

But because Kevin Durant is out, um, and him continuing to play the way that he's played and amping it up and listening to the players talk about him and the leadership that he's providing the point guard duties, that he's obviously partaken.

但因為凱文-杜蘭特出局了，嗯，他繼續以他的方式打球，並加大了力度，聽球員們談論他和他提供的領導力的控衛職責，他顯然參與了。

I got to give credit where credit is due in terms of Joel Embiid as a defensive wizard.

在喬爾-恩比德這個防守奇兵方面，我得給點贊。

He's a big time defensive player.

他是個大牌防守球員。

Deserves a lot of credit, But let's not call him the best defensive player on the sixties.

應該得到很多榮譽，但我們不要稱他為六十年代最好的防守球員。

We know better than that.

我們知道的比這更多。

It's Ben Simmons, Ben Simmons.

是本-西蒙斯，本-西蒙斯。

It's the best defensive player.

這是最好的防守球員。

Ben Simmons is gonna win defensive player of the year.

本-西蒙斯會贏得年度最佳防守球員。

If anybody paying attention, he's been absolutely great.

如果有人注意到，他的表現絕對出色。

And so I don't think there's any denying that.

所以我覺得這一點是毋庸置疑的。

And then you look at the you know over time, for example, when they went to Bias Harris four straight times.

然後你看看你知道隨著時間的推移，例如，當他們去了偏向哈里斯連續四次。

Yeah, Joel and we can do some things, but the guys around him are doing so much.

是的，喬爾和我們可以做一些事情，但他身邊的人做的事情太多。

People don't realize, even though he's averaging 30 and 11 shoot 42% nearly 42% from three point range, which is not something we're accustomed to seeing from Joe L and B.

人們沒有意識到，即使他的場均30，11投42%近42%的三分球，這不是我們習慣於從喬-L和B身上看到的東西。

The reality is that the coaching combined with the personnel that he's had around him this particular season with what Doc Rivers, Elton Brand and Daryl Morey have done deserves a lot of kudos for what's transpiring there.

現實情況是，教練加上他身邊的人員，這個特殊的賽季，多克-裡弗斯、埃爾頓-布蘭德和達里爾-莫雷所做的一切，都值得為那裡的情況點贊。

In the case of James Harden, James Harden literally has found himself having to hold down the fort to pick up the slack until Kyrie can go at it for you night in and night out as well as Kevin Durant, ultimately coming back.

在詹姆斯-哈登的情況下，詹姆斯-哈登真的發現自己必須要守住陣地來接力，直到凱里能像凱文-杜蘭特一樣夜夜為你出力，最終回來。

So all of those things are things that need to be taken into consideration as we look at what Brooklyn is doing.

所以，所有這些事情都是我們在看布魯克林的工作時需要考慮到的。

They won 10 of their last 11 games, the only a half game out of the number one seed in the Eastern Conference.

他們在過去11場比賽中贏了10場，距離東部第一種子只有半場的差距。

I look at it from that perspective based on those circumstances, and I think the argument is sound on behalf of James Harden.

基於這些情況，我從這個角度來看，我認為代表詹姆斯-哈登的觀點是正確的。

Well, I'll say this for Harden.

好吧，我為哈登說一句。

I m beads the M V p to me, Um, then at this moment LeBron but hardens in the conversation.

我米珠的M V P對我來說，嗯，然後在這一刻勒布朗但硬在談話。

And I've never I don't think even heard of something like this Where a guy not midseason exactly, but once a nice little part of the season has already been played, switches teams, but not only switches teams, plays his way out of town like made it very clear with his play and his attitude.

而我從來沒有我想甚至沒有聽說過這樣的事情一個人不季中確切的，但一旦一個不錯的小部分賽季已經打完了，換隊，但不僅換隊，玩他的方式出城像他的發揮和他的態度非常清楚。

He did not want to be there, and Harden was toxic.

他不想在那裡，哈登是有毒的。

At that moment, you heard all around the league.

那一刻，你聽到了全聯盟的聲音。

Guys didn't even want him to come to that town.

夥計們甚至不想讓他來那個城市。

They didn't want to play with him.

他們不想和他玩。

For him to show up in Brooklyn like, as I've been saying, looking like he rolled out of bed fat and out of shape like a hot mess and and Day one start, dropping triple doubles with 30 points in winds has been remarkable, and he is in the conversation.

對於他出現在布魯克林像，正如我所說的那樣，看起來像他從床上滾下來的脂肪和形狀像一個熱的混亂和第一天開始，在風中下降了30分的三倍，已經引人注目，他在談話中。

I will give you that hardens in the conversation, but not at the very top of the list.

我會給你，在談話中變硬，但不是在最前面。

That's for the big man who did it again last night.

這是給昨晚又做了一次的大人物。

Who's dominating a league right now, where I thought it was impossible for an old school back to the back to the basket type centre to dominate the league, but he's doing it.

現在誰在主導一個聯盟，我認為一個老派的背靠背籃板型中鋒是不可能主導聯盟的，但他做到了。

He's the best player in basketball so far from beginning to end, the most valuable in the year 2021.

他是迄今為止籃球界從頭到尾最好的球員，是2021年最有價值的球員。
