Michael Wilbon 批評 ESPN對 Bronny的報導
For at least the past calendar year, everyone across the basketball world has be
en talking about Bronny James, seemingly ad nauseam. Many have been skeptical th
at he has what it takes to become a legitimate NBA player or even belongs in pro
basketball, but since he's the son of LeBron James, a few have been quick to pr
oclaim him a guaranteed future superstar.
過去一整年Bronny James已經成為籃球界討論的熱門話題,多數人根本不信他有多大的本事
可以打NBA,就因他是LeBron之子,還是有少數人認為他一定會成為未來的超級巨星。
ESPN has been one outlet that has talked plenty about the younger James, such as
when Stephen A. Smith pleaded with the elder James to "stop this" involving his
alleged involvement in the 20-year-old's NBA career. That comment from Smith se
emed to spark a feud between him and the 40-year-old future Hall of Famer.
ESPN就是整天炒作小詹的媒體之一,像Stephen A. Smith之前就公開喊話老詹「別再插手」
兒子的職業生涯,這番話似乎引發了SAS與這位40歲未來名人堂球員之間的不和。
But one ESPN show that hasn't talked much about the younger James is "Pardon the
Interruption." Co-host Michael Wilbon explained why and even criticized his net
work a bit for its coverage of the rookie guard
不過ESPN旗下節目 Pardon the Interruption 倒是很少談論這件事,主持人Michael Wilbo
n最近就解釋原因,還順便批評了自家公司
And, look, I am a father, too,” Wilbon said. “Let me let you in on some inside
baseball, Bobby [Burack]. And you probably know this. But ‘PTI’ did not talk
about Bronny. We never did. All the Bronny talk that our network did was panderi
ng. It was for clicks and eyeballs. I refused to participate.
好了,我也是當爸爸的人。Wilbon對Bobby Burack說:我來跟你爆個內幕我們PTI從來不討
論Bronny。ESPN那些整天報Bronny的新聞只是純粹騙流量和點擊率,我拒絕參與這種事。
You can go back and look, ‘PTI’ didn’t cover him, except for maybe the real n
ews, like the day after he was drafted. Those other shows, it was every day. Bro
nny. Bronny. Bronny. What the hell is this? It was a disaster waiting to happen.
你們去查紀錄,PTI 頂多在他選秀隔天報一下。其他節目天天Bronny來Bronny去,到底是怎
樣?這根本是場災難,遲早會出事。
I have a 17-year-old son, so this matters to me. I am particularly sensitive to
it. I’d do anything for my kid, and I would hug LeBron for what he did for his
kid.
我有個17歲的兒子,所以特別能感同身受。身為父親,我會為孩子付出一切,我完全理解詹
姆斯為兒子做的事,甚至想給他一個擁抱
I am a father first. That’s how I see this story—not as a columnist or a talki
ng head–but as a father first. So, I get what LeBron did. And LeBron has also b
een great to my kid.
我是個父親,這是我看待這件事的角度,不是以專欄作家或評論員的身份,而是以一個父親
的立場,因此我明白詹姆斯的動機,而且他對我兒子也很友善。
But as far as coverage, no. There were shows that talked about Bronny every day.
You know what shows I’m talking about. I don’t care if my bosses get mad. The
y would try to get Tony [Kornheiser] and me to talk about it. No, we were not go
ing to do it.
但說到媒體報導,天天都有節目在炒作Bronny,你知道我在說哪些節目。就算我頂頭上司不
爽我也要講出來,他們以前要我和Tony硬聊這個,我們就是不願意。
The younger James has shown plenty of progress in the G League over the last sev
eral weeks. He finished the regular season there with averages of 21.9 points, 5
.5 assists, 5.2 rebounds and 2.0 steals a game while shooting 44.5% from the fie
ld and 38% from 3-point range. On Monday, he exploded for 39 points on 14-of-21
shooting in his penultimate game of the season.
He even scored 17 points on 7-of-10 shooting in an NBA game between the Los Ange
les Lakers and Milwaukee Bucks on March 20.
小詹近期在G聯盟表現出色,例行賽場均21.9分、5.5助攻、5.2籃板和2.0抄截,投籃命中率
44.5%,三分球命中率38%。週一(當地時間)的倒數第二場比賽中,他更以21投14中狂砍39
分。
3月20日湖人對公鹿的NBA比賽中,他也以10投7中攻下17分。
But he still has a long way to go before he proves he is legitimate NBA material
, and this summer, not to mention next season, will be of the utmost importance
for him.
然而要證明自己具備NBA實力,他仍有長路要走。今年夏天與下個賽季,對他而言將至關重
要。
