https://x.com/sam_amick/status/2009282778957787537 Amick對Giannis的專訪 SAN FRANCISCO — If anyone wondered whether Giannis Antetokounmpo was feeling bogged down by all the trade rumors that constantly surround him these days, the answer was there for all to see outside the visitors’ locker room at Chase Center late Wednesday night. 舊金山--如果有人想知道Giannis Antetokounmpo是否因為近來圍繞著他的各種交易傳聞而感到心煩意亂，那麼答案在週三深夜、Chase Center 客隊休息室外的畫面中一覽無遺。 His entire family — his wife, Mariah, and their four young children — created a joyful scene that belied the disappointing nature of his Milwaukee Bucks’ 120-113 loss to the Golden State Warriors. His oldest son, 5-year-old Liam, dribbled a basketball around his siblings and begged his mother to play the part of the actual hoop. Mariah obliged, holding her arms in the shape of a rim as he looked for his shot. 他的整個家庭--妻子Mariah與他們的四個年幼孩子--營造出一幅歡樂景象，與密爾瓦基公鹿以113比120輸給金州勇士的失利形成強烈對比。年紀最大的兒子、5歲的Liam在兄弟姊妹間運著籃球跑來跑去，還央求母親扮演真正的籃框。Mariah也配合，雙手比成籃框的形狀，讓他尋找出手機會。 The kids goofed around with several Bucks staff members, including vice president of basketball operations Dave Dean. Giannis’ mother, Veronica, sat on a chair nearby, smiling. One of his brothers, Bucks forward Thanasis Antetokounmpo, joined in on the family fun a few minutes later. 孩子們和多位公鹿隊職員打鬧玩耍，其中包括籃球事務副總裁Dave Dean。Giannis的母親 Veronica坐在一旁的椅子上，面帶微笑。幾分鐘後，他的其中一位兄弟、公鹿前鋒 Thanasis Antetokounmpo也加入了這場家庭歡樂時光。 Amid all the league-wide speculation that Antetokounmpo might finally ask for a trade before the Feb. 5 deadline, this was not the sort of happy-go-lucky scene that one might expect from an NBA superstar looking to force his way out. And as the 31-year-old explained in our 11-minute interview that took place on his slow walk to the team bus, that’s because he’s not. 在整個聯盟都在揣測Antetokounmpo是否會在2月5日交易截止日前終於提出交易要求的背景下，這樣輕鬆愉快的畫面，並不像是一位準備逼宮離隊的NBA超級球星該有的樣子。而正如這位31歲球星在我們於他慢慢走向球隊巴士途中進行的11分鐘訪談中所解釋的那樣--因為事實並非如此。 “There will never be a chance, and there will never be a moment, that I will come out and say ‘I want a trade,’” Antetokounmpo, who can opt out of his contract in the summer of 2027, told The Athletic. “That’s not … in … my … nature. OK?” "永遠不會有任何機會，也永遠不會有任何時刻，我會站出來說'我想被交易'，"這位可在 2027年夏天選擇跳脫合約的Antetokounmpo對The Athletic說道。"那不是……我……的… …本性。好嗎?" The pauses between each of his words reflected a deliberateness that wasn’t there on Dec. 18, when his attempt to address the latest ESPN report about his possible departure resulted in a word-salad sort of news conference that only made the optics surrounding his situation worse. Yet this time around, Antetokounmpo’s message was quite clear. 他每個字之間刻意停頓，展現出一種深思熟慮的態度，這在12月18日並不存在。當時他試圖回應ESPN最新一篇關於他可能離隊的報導，結果卻在記者會上語無倫次，反而讓外界對他處境的觀感更加惡化。但這一次，Antetokounmpo的訊息非常清楚。 Even with the struggles that this Bucks team (16-21) has endured, with their loss to the Warriors dropping them to 11th place in the Eastern Conference, he sounded like a man committed to this cause. No matter how flawed it might be. 即便這支公鹿隊(16勝21敗)正處於掙扎之中，輸給勇士後跌到東區第11名，他的語氣仍像是一個全心投入其中的人--不管這個計畫有多麼不完美。 Even with injuries costing Antetokounmpo 14 of the Bucks’ 37 games to this point, the two-time MVP is on track to be among the top finishers for the award again this season (he can’t miss more than three additional games to remain eligible). Antetokounmpo is averaging 29.5 points (64.5 percent from the field overall), 10 rebounds and 5.5 assists, making him just one of two players hitting those 29-10-5 marks. Denver’s three-time MVP, the injured Nikola Jokic is the other. 即使傷勢讓Antetokounmpo至今缺席了公鹿37場比賽中的14場，這位兩屆MVP本季仍有望再度成為該獎項的前段競逐者(他最多只能再缺席三場，才能維持評選資格)。他場均29.5分 (整體投籃命中率64.5%)、10籃板、5.5助攻，是聯盟僅有兩位達到29-10-5數據的球員之一；另一位是目前受傷中的金塊三屆MVP Nikola Jokic。 Yet for the Bucks’ purposes, you simply can’t find anyone with a bad thing to say about Antetokounmpo’s level of commitment throughout this controversy. That alone is evidence that he’s not planning his exit. Not yet, anyway. 但就公鹿的角度來看，你幾乎找不到任何人會質疑Antetokounmpo在這段風波中的投入程度。光是這一點，就足以證明他並沒有在計畫離開--至少現在還沒有。 “If you’re around the team every day, and you saw those reports, you would laugh,” coach Doc Rivers told The Athletic. “He’s given no indication (that he wants out). That doesn’t mean that he doesn’t change his mind, or whatever. But Giannis loves being in Milwaukee. He loves playing for this team. If something happens someday, where he changes his mind, I’d actually be surprised. But that can happen. "如果你每天都在球隊身邊，又看到那些報導，你只會笑出來，"總教練Doc Rivers對The Athletic說。"他完全沒有表現出任何想離開的跡象。這不代表他未來不會改變想法或怎樣，但Giannis很愛待在密爾瓦基，很愛為這支球隊打球。如果哪天他真的改變心意，我反而會很驚訝。不過，這種事當然也可能發生。 “But it’s frustrating for me. Giannis, two or three times now, has said, ‘ Guys, I’m here. I love it.’” "但這真的讓我很挫折。Giannis已經兩、三次說過，'各位，我就在這裡，我很喜歡這裡。 '" There will certainly be questions about Antetokounmpo’s intentions after this season. And even if he never asks for a trade, his stance on the four-year, $275 million extension that he’s eligible for on Oct. 1 will speak volumes about what he truly wants. 在這個賽季結束後，外界肯定還是會繼續質疑Antetokounmpo的未來動向。即便他從未提出交易要求，他對於10月1日起具備資格、為期四年、總值275M的延長合約所抱持的態度，也將清楚反映他真正的想法。 Assuming, of course, that his declaration about not asking out holds true. All the signs are aimed in that direction at this point. 當然，前提是他關於不主動要求離隊的說法依然成立。至少目前為止，所有跡象都指向這個方向。 The following interview was lightly edited for brevity and clarity. 以下訪談內容已稍作編輯，以求簡潔與清楚。 So I’ve been around you and your team for a few days now, talking to people about your mindset and trying to get a better sense of things. I want to share my opinion and have you tell me if I’m off or not: It feels like there ’s no chance that you’re going anywhere before Feb. 5. What’s Feb. 5? Cue the laughter from this reporter… 我這幾天一直在你和球隊身邊，和一些人聊過你的心態，試著更了解整體狀況。我想先分享我的看法，看看是不是有偏差:我感覺在2月5日之前，你幾乎不可能去任何地方。 Giannis:2月5日是什麼？ (記者笑了出來……) The trade deadline. And before you answer, here’s the thing: The way that people have talked about your situation is that the only way you were going to get traded is if you decided in the next few weeks that you were done and that you would have to make a statement that you want out. I’m not getting that energy at all from you. Is that fair? One hundred percent. I think I’ve answered this question a lot of times. I’ m not throwing a knock at you, but I keep on saying (that) conversations that are happening between other people, third parties, it’s something that I can ’t control. I can’t control what you’re going to say with my agent, or with my best friend, or with my chef. I can only control what comes out of my mouth. And not one time have I shown that I’m not invested in this team. And if there was a time on the basketball court where you’ve seen that, “Oh, Giannis doesn’t look like he wants to be a part of this team no more,” I want you to pinpoint that. There’s never been an interview where I’ve said that. So I don’t know why people discredit what I say. Like, even when your article will come out … people will say, “Yeah, but. Yeah, but.” 交易截止日。在你回答之前，我想先說清楚一點：外界一直認為，你唯一會被交易的方式，就是你在接下來幾週決定自己已經受夠了，然後公開表態想離開。但我完全沒有從你身上感受到那種氣氛。這樣說公平嗎? Giannis:百分之百公平。我覺得我已經回答過這個問題很多次了。我不是要針對你，但我一直在說，其他人、第三方之間發生的對話，是我無法控制的。我沒辦法控制你會跟我的經紀人說什麼、跟我最好的朋友說什麼、或跟我的廚師說什麼。我唯一能控制的，是從我嘴巴說出來的話。而我從來沒有表現出我對這支球隊不投入。如果你能指出任何一次在球場上，看起來像是"喔，Giannis 不想再當這支球隊的一分子了"，那你告訴我。我從來沒有在任何一次訪問中說過這種話。所以我不懂為什麼大家會否定我說的話。就算你的文章刊出後……大家還是會說，"對啊，但是……對啊，但是……" Sure, but that’s kind of why I wanted to see if you were willing and comfortable to say, like, listen, I’m not going anywhere right now. I am not (going anywhere). I am invested in this team. I want to turn this team around. I want to play good basketball. I want to be healthy. I want to help my teammates. I wanna win games. The last six games we’ve played, we’ re 4-2. We have a lot of games in front of us. I’m locked the f— in. I’m locked in. My priority is just staying healthy. 我懂，但這也是為什麼我想看看你是否願意、是否覺得自在地直接說一句:聽著，我現在不會去任何地方。 Giannis:我不會(離開)。我全心投入這支球隊。我想把這支球隊拉回正軌。我想打好籃球。我想保持健康。我想幫助我的隊友。我想贏球。我們最近六場比賽是4勝2敗，前面還有很多比賽等著我們。我他X的完全投入。我真的鎖定在這裡。現在我唯一的優先事項，就是保持健康。 The way your situation has been framed is that in the next few weeks, before Feb. 5, you have to decide whether or not you want out. Am I hearing you correctly that you have decided? As of today. You know how they say this thing about your significant other, or your wife, you always have to say, “As of today.” 外界對你處境的描述是，在接下來幾週、2月5日之前，你必須決定自己是否想離開。我是不是可以理解為，你已經做出決定了？ Giannis:就"今天"而言。你知道他們常說，關於你的另一半、或你的太太，你永遠都得說一句:"就今天而言。" I hear you, but that’s the stuff where the fans are then going to say, “Oh, he’s leaving an out.” I don’t care. I really don’t. It doesn’t affect me at all. What I care about is basketball. I want to be good at what I do. And there’s some things that I have to do, which I will do on the basketball court. But until today, my guy (Bucks director of content) Nick (Monroe, who was standing nearby) has been with me for 13 years, and it’s been great. Tomorrow, when I wake up, it may not be great. Today, our relationship is great. Tomorrow it might be different. It’s the same thing with my wife. Until today, my wife is great. She’s a great mother. She’s a great partner. She supports me. Until today. Tomorrow, she might wake up and be like, “I don’t want this. I fell out of love.” Until today, me and (Bucks general manager) Jon (Horst) have a good relationship. Tomorrow, (Horst) might think there’s something else out there, and he might have to do whatever he has to do. You know, for me, right now, today, I am committed — not 100 percent, but 1 million percent to my teammates, to my craft, to this team, and to this city. One million percent. I don’t look right. I don’t look left. I look only to the next game, which is the Lakers, and I want to win the game. I want us to stack wins before the All-Star game to get ourselves back to the race. We’re what, 11th now? This is not who we are, you know? So that’s the only thing in my mindset. 我懂，但這也是球迷會說的那種話:"喔，他是在留後路。" Giannis:我不在乎。我真的不在乎。這對我一點影響都沒有。我在乎的是籃球。我想把我該做的事做好。而有些事情，是我必須在球場上去完成的。但就今天來說，我的兄弟--(站在旁邊的公鹿內容總監)Nick(Monroe)--已經跟我一起13年了，一直都很好。明天我醒來，可能就不一定那麼好了。今天，我們的關係很好；明天，可能會不一樣。我和我太太也是一樣。就今天來說，我太太很好，她是個好媽媽、好伴侶，也很支持我。就今天而言。明天她可能醒來就說:"我不想要這樣了，我不再愛了。"就今天來說，我和(公鹿總經理)Jon (Horst)的關係很好。明天，Horst可能會覺得外面有其他選擇，他可能就必須去做他該做的事。所以對我來說，現在、今天，我對我的隊友、對我的技藝、對這支球隊、對這座城市的投入--不是100%，而是100萬%。100 萬%。我不看左、不看右，我只看下一場比賽，也就是對湖人。我想贏下那場比賽。我想在明星賽前累積勝場，把自己拉回競逐行列。我們現在第幾?第11名?這不是我們該有的位置。這就是我現在腦中唯一的事情。 But you’re planning on being here through the end of the season, correct? My plan is to be here for the rest of my career. If they don’t want me … OK, but you’re the one in charge (of this situation). Let’s be real. I’m not the one in charge. I am an employee. No, you’re not. I’m not letting you get away with that. I’m just being real with you. Look at it this way: I have a family office … where I have employees who work for me, people who run my whole life. Business. The day-to-day. Investment. Real estate. Venture (capital). Endorsements. Everything. It’s between eight-to-12 employees, but I’m in charge. You know why? Because I’m the boss — the chairman. But on the court, I can only control what I can control. I’m not in charge. Somebody writes my check. Tomorrow, the person who writes my check might say, “I don’ t want to write that check no more. Let somebody else write that check.” 但你的計畫是會打完整個賽季，對吧？ Giannis:我的計畫是留在這裡，直到我職業生涯結束。如果他們不想要我…… 好，但這件事其實是由你掌控的。說實話。 Giannis:我不是掌控者。我是一名員工。不，你不是。我不會讓你這樣帶過。 Giannis:我只是對你說實話。你這樣想:我有一個家族辦公室……裡面有員工替我工作，有人幫我處理我整個人生的事業--生意、日常營運、投資、不動產、創投、代言，全部。大概8到12個人，而我才是負責的人。為什麼?因為我是老闆，是董事長。但在球場上，我只能控制我能控制的事。我不是掌控者。有人替我開支票。明天，替我開支票的人可能會說 :"我不想再開這張支票了，讓別人來開。" But in terms of the part you control, you’re not saying anything that makes me believe you’re going to use your voice to change your situation before the deadline. No. No. I’m locked in. I am locked in to my craft. I’m locked in with the team. I am locked into the situation that I have in front of me. That’s pretty much it. And there will never be a scenario on this planet that I will ever quit on my team. That’s not in my nature. Are you losing sleep over this at all, or are you still managing to enjoy the game right now? You’re obviously not enjoying losing, but … No, I don’t enjoy losing. It’s not in my nature. I’m a competitor. I like to win. I like to win. 但就你能掌控的部分而言，你沒有說任何一句話，會讓我覺得你打算在交易截止日前用你的聲音去改變處境。 Giannis:沒有。沒有。我完全專注。我專注在我的技藝上，我專注在球隊上，我專注在眼前的處境。大概就是這樣。這世界上永遠不會有任何一種情況，讓我放棄我的球隊。那不是我的本性。那你有因為這件事失眠嗎？還是你仍然能享受打球？當然你不享受輸球，但…… Giannis:不，我不享受輸球。那不是我的本性。我是個競爭者。我喜歡贏。我喜歡勝利。 You don’t seem very stressed, though. You seem good. And with some players, when the world talks about them, they can’t handle the noise. It doesn’t affect my kids. It doesn’t affect my wife. My life is consistent. If you see the common denominator between the best players in the league, they have a consistent outside life. LeBron James. Steph Curry. (Nikola) Joki Luka (Don, Shai (Gilgeous-Alexander). They have something consistent. So all the noise that (spills over onto) the basketball court. If you let that affect your life, you won’t be consistent in basketball. So if you have a consistent life, you can have consistent performance. Through the last 13 years, I’m consistent on the basketball court because my life is (consistent). You saw my kids. You saw my wife. It doesn’t affect me at all. There will never be a chance, and there will never be a moment that I will come out and say I want a trade. That’s not … in … my … nature. OK? 你看起來其實不太焦慮，狀態很好。但有些球員一旦全世界都在談論他們，就承受不了那些雜音。 Giannis:這不會影響我的孩子，也不會影響我的太太。我的生活是穩定的。如果你觀察聯盟中最頂尖的球員，他們都有一個共同點：場外生活很穩定。LeBron James、Steph Curry 、Nikola Jokic、Luka Doncic、Shai Gilgeous-Alexander--他們都有某種一致性。所以那些會延伸到球場上的雜音，如果你讓它影響你的生活，你在籃球場上就不可能保持穩定。只要生活穩定，表現就能穩定。過去13年來，我能在球場上保持一致，是因為我的生活是穩定的。你看到了我的孩子，也看到了我的太太，這些完全不影響我。我永遠不會有任何機會、任何時刻，站出來說我想被交易。那不是……我……的……本性，好嗎？ Are you saying you wouldn’t do that publicly or privately too? Well, I have seen that my team said (in the media that), “If Giannis doesn’ t ask for a trade, we’re not trading him,” so what does that tell you? That I have never gone and asked for a trade. But like you said, things change every day. Just making sure. It could have happened at breakfast today. Right. So just because I like my eggs scrambled today, I don’t have the opportunity to eat my eggs sunny-side up tomorrow? We’re human, right? So it ’s the same thing in basketball. But again, in my nature, I will never. I will never. That’s not who I am. Can this team figure it out? Well, that’s a different conversation. 你的意思是，你不會在公開或私下提出這件事嗎？ Giannis:我看到球隊在媒體上說過:"如果Giannis沒有要求交易，我們就不會交易他。"這代表什麼?代表我從來沒有去要求交易。但就像你說的，每一天事情都可能改變。我只是確認一下，說不定今天早餐時就發生了。 Giannis:對啊。所以今天我喜歡吃炒蛋，明天就不能吃半熟蛋嗎?我們是人，對吧?籃球也是一樣。但再說一次，這不符合我的本性。我永遠不會那樣做。那不是我。這支球隊能找到解法嗎? 那是另一個話題了。 I know, and you’ve gotta go. I just wanted your quick opinion on it. Yes, but we’ve got to be winning. You cannot win on your own terms, right? Do you think when I won the championship (in 2021), that I didn’t want to have the ball down the stretch and make all the shots that (former Bucks guard) Khris (Middleton) was making? I wanted that. But at the end of the day, winning cannot be on your terms. So I feel like sometimes on young teams, you have to win by you being pretty, by you being the ball-dominant player, by you feeling good and making the plays. No, you have to be selfless. You have to be selfless. I’ve seen this over and over again. 我知道，而且你也得走了。我只是想聽聽你簡短的看法。 Giannis:是的，但我們必須要贏球。你不可能只用你想要的方式來贏，對吧?你覺得我在 2021年拿冠軍時，不想在關鍵時刻持球、投進所有那些Khris Middleton投進的球嗎?我想。但到頭來，贏球不能只照你的方式來。有時候，年輕球隊會覺得，一定要自己打得好看、一定要自己主導球權、一定要自己感覺良好、自己做出所有進攻。但不是這樣的，你必須無私。你必須無私。我一再看到這件事。 Antetokounmpo, with his passion rising as he speaks over the loud beeping sounds of a nearby forklift, starts clapping his hands together. I have seen it over and over. There’s some people that you have to play through them to win the championship. And there’s some teams like, say, two years ago when Boston won. Was Jrue Holiday his 100 percent self? No, he played a role. He was part of a system. Al Horford. Derrick White. (Payton) Pritchard. (Jayson) Tatum and Jaylen Brown were able to thrive. Winning doesn ’t always look the same. It’s either you’re a winner, or you’re not a winner. I want to win. I want to win. And the thing about this team is that as long as we figure out, “How can we be selfless and give things away?” It ’s buying into winning — really winning — and then we are going to figure it out. And if we don’t buy in, we don’t come together. I’ve been a part of winning teams, and winning teams don’t always win championships, right? Indiana was a winning team but didn’t wind up with the championship. So I’ve seen some teams, and some players, who are buying in — like (Kyle) Kuzma. Kuzma won a championship (with the Lakers in 2020), then went to Washington and played a lot of years. He’s a vet. But he’s the most bought-in player, right? He’s coming off the bench making $25 million ($22.4 million this season, in fact). He could be like, “Guys, I’m the third option. I’m second option. Give me the ball.” But he is buying in. He ’s coming off of the bench. Then he starts. Comes off the bench. Gets touches. Doesn’t get touches. That’s what winning looks like, you know? With the entire team waiting on a nearby bus, a member of the team’s security staff hollers for Antetokounmpo to rejoin his team en route to the hotel. He shouts back, “One second!” before finishing his final thought. But to answer your question, I think we have to buy in more. Winning won’t always look the way we want it to look. Maybe one day I have to have 20 rebounds, eight assists, 12 points. But then maybe another night (he) has to do more things. But winning doesn’t always look the same. Antetokounmpo在一旁堆高機刺耳的嗶嗶聲中，語氣愈來愈激動，開始拍起雙手。我一再看到這種情況。有些人，你必須圍繞他們打，才能贏得冠軍;但也有些球隊--比如兩年前賽爾提克奪冠那支--Jrue Holiday有完全打出自己100%的樣子嗎？沒有，他扮演了一個角色，是體系的一部分。Al Horford、Derrick White、Payton Pritchard，而Jayson Tatum和Jaylen Brown得以發揮。贏球的樣子不一定都一樣。你不是贏家，就是不是贏家。我想贏。我想贏。而這支球隊的關鍵在於，只要我們能搞清楚"如何無私、如何把東西分享出去"，真正買單於贏球--真正的贏球--那我們就會找到答案。如果我們不買單、不團結在一起，那就不會。我待過會贏球的球隊，而會贏球的球隊不一定都能拿冠軍，對吧?溜馬是一支會贏球的球隊，但最後沒有奪冠。所以我看過一些球隊，也看過一些真正買單的球員，比如Kyle Kuzma 。Kuzma曾拿過冠軍，之後去了巫師打了好幾年，他是老將。但他是最投入體系的球員。他拿著25M的薪水(實際上本季是22.4M)，卻願意從板凳出發。他本來可以說："各位，我是第三選擇、第二選擇，把球給我。"但他選擇買單。他替補出場，然後先發；先發後又回替補；有時有球權，有時沒有。那才是贏球的樣子，你懂嗎? 當整支球隊已經在附近的巴士旁等候時，一名球隊保全人員喊Antetokounmpo該上車前往飯店了。他回喊一句:"等一下!"然後完成最後的想法。回到你的問題，我認為我們必須更買單。贏球不一定會長得像我們想要的樣子。也許有一天我得抓20個籃板、8次助攻、12分；但也許另一個晚上，就得換別人多做一些事。贏球不會永遠長得一樣。心得: 這整篇記者都問得非常尖銳然後Giannis就是瘋狂跳針一堆冠冕堂皇的話然後同時打預防針= = -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 123.192.206.155 (臺灣) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/NBA/M.1767887611.A.562.html
