[ Stein ] Charles Barkley: "I have to get on TV and fake it for seven months that it ’ s not going to be the Warriors and Cavs in the finals again."
Marc Stein 在紐約時報上發文：巴克利表示 " 我得在長達 7 個月的時間裡上電視做直播節目，假裝總決賽不再會是勇士和騎士的對決。"
巴克利：對我來說最困難的事就是我得在長達 7 個月的時間裡上電視做直播節目，假裝總決賽不再會是勇士和騎士的對決。事實就是這樣。

"The finals are going to be Warriors and Cavs no one gives a damn bout this game"
Barkley "faking it"
" 總決賽肯定還是勇士對騎士，想都不用想，沒人在乎這比賽瞭。"
這就是巴克利 " 假裝 " 的方式。

It's true though. This was the attitude last year, and unfortunately it remains the same this year.
Take the Thunder for example. I am ecstatic that about our off season moves. Presti is a fucking genius, and what he has done for the Thunder will be felt in Oklahoma City in multiple ways for years to come.
With that said, barring a key injury on the Warriors ( which I think would have to be KD or Steph ) there is no way any team in West makes it to the Finals other than the Warriors. And to be clear, I am not advocating for an injury. That's a shitty thing to do.
I think there is more room for argument in the East, and assuming no key injuries occur, the ECF will be Cavs versus Boston, which we will all hope will be a great series, because the Finals will pretty much be the same as it was last year.
The Warriors will win again this year, and most likely next year, and probably the year after next.
雷霆球迷：這的確是事實啊。去年的論調就是這樣，不幸的是今年仍然如此。
拿我雷舉個例子。我對我們休賽期的操作簡直興奮的不得瞭。普萊斯蒂真的是個天才啊，他為雷霆所做的一切會在未來幾年被俄克拉荷馬城的人們所理解的。
盡管如此，除非是受傷病影響（我覺得還得是杜蘭特或者是庫裡受傷），其餘的西部球隊還是幹不過勇士。話得講清楚，我不是希望勇士出現傷病。那樣做太愚蠢瞭。
但是我認為東部的情況會更具爭議。假如沒有重要傷病出現的話，東區決賽估計是騎士面對凱爾特人，我們都希望這輪系列賽好看些，因為總決賽估計還是和上一年一樣的結果。
勇士今年還會再次贏得總冠軍，明年很可能也會這樣，後年估計也是如此。

I ’ m not sold on Boston yet. Putting a group of good players together sometimes ends up with the Nets or Knicks. Let ’ s see if they do have the right pieces to have a successful team.
我並不是很看好凱爾特人。把一些出色的球員聚集在一起有時候可能變成籃網或者尼克斯那樣。他們究竟能不能組成一支成功的球隊呢？我們拭目以待吧。
[ – ] [ BOS ] Rajon Rondobmac3 111 points an hour ago
I fully agree that we have to wait and see but it ‘ s a completely different situation to both the teams you mentioned. The Knicks got worse/injured versions of the players and Nets got players well past their prime. The Celtics just added prime, perhaps even pre-prime, Hayward and Irving so the outlook is much better imo.
凱爾特人球迷：我完全同意，到底會怎麼樣還得等等看，但是你剛才提到的兩支隊和我凱的情況完全不同。尼克斯隊裡有一些糟糕和受傷病困擾的球員，而籃網隊裡的球員大都巔峰已過。凱爾特人則剛引入瞭處於巔峰期的球星海沃德（揭幕戰已經受重傷，可能賽季報銷），還有處於上升期的球星歐文。所以在我看來我們的前景要好很多。

Nets were old and Knicks were never a superteam. They weren't predicted to win 40 games by most people. Kyrie and Hayward are in their primes.
那支籃網老齡化嚴重，而尼克斯從來不是一支超級球隊，大部分人都不認為他們能拿下 40 勝。歐文和海沃德還處於他們的巔峰期呢。

Definitely, but I don't think it's as clear-cut as everyone on this sub thinks. I think the Wiz still have a good chance of making it out, we got a young team and a starting lineup that is still getting used to playing together.

which I think would have to be KD or Steph
my opinion means nothing but i would rank the order of severity for GSW ( if a player got injured ) as: Steph, Draymond, KD
" 我覺得還得是杜蘭特或者是庫裡受傷。"（引用之前雷霆球迷的回帖）
我的想法並不重要啊，但是我覺得勇士隊球員受傷對球隊影響最大的排名如下：庫裡、德雷蒙德 - 格林、杜蘭特。
[ – ] NBAFearghas 88 points 2 hours ago
I think losing Draymond would hurt them more than KD or Steph. They have enough firepower to still be elite without KD or Curry but Draymond's the centerpiece of their defense and I don't think they can replace him as easily.
我認為如果勇士因為傷病失去瞭格林的話，要比失去杜蘭特或者庫裡更傷。即使沒有杜蘭特或者庫裡，他們還是有足夠多的進攻端火力，但是格林在他們的防守體系裡扮演瞭支柱的作用，我不認為他們能輕易的找人替換格林的位置。

or Steph

I am not sure about this narrative that only a key injury to the Warriors can help a team in the West get to the finals. The argument can be made that Houston, OKC, and San Antonio ( SA stayed roughly the same but they already matched up pretty well with GSW ) all got better this off season. I think the gap has closed considerably. The warriors are going to have a tough time adjusting defensively to most of these teams. These teams got mathematically better with offensive efficiency, scoring rates, defensively, etc.
now my gut still says GSW in 6 vs the Cavs, but that's because i haven't seen some of these revamped teams compete.
隻有勇士出現重大傷病才可能讓另一隻西部球隊打進總決賽這種論調我並不是很確定。值得討論的是火箭，雷霆和馬刺（馬刺可能沒有怎麼變，但是他們已經和勇士打的有來有回瞭）在休賽期都進行瞭陣容升級。我認為他們和勇士之間的距離已經縮小瞭。勇士隊在面對這些球隊的時候要在調整防守上多花些功夫瞭。這些球隊在進攻效率，得分，防守端等等各方面都變得更強瞭。

I mean it's likely but shit happens, I'm not going to act like other teams don't stand a chance when we've seen players get injured and teams choke all the time
我覺得盡管是假設，但是糟糕的事情總會發生。我不覺得其他球隊一點機會都沒有，畢竟我們看到這麼多次球員受傷和球隊突然崩盤的情況。

Yup. Saw a dude this time last year guarantee a 60+ win season for the Cavs. 60 wins is insanely uncommon, maybe doesn't seem that way for a new fan, but it's rare. To casually throw that out there like it's even more likely than not and get heavily upvoted is ridiculous.
是的啊。去年新賽季開始前我看到一個哥們說騎士肯定能贏 60+ 場。60 勝可是很少見瞭，也許對年輕的球迷來說 60 勝不算什麼，但是這真的很難做到。隨口說說然後騙一波點亮，有點可笑。

Absolutely, but LMA and Pau are underrated imo. No doubt they're a "one-superstar" team, but that doesn't mean he's got scrubs around him. Lee, Dedmon and Patty all played some pretty solid ball too.
絕對的，但是我認為阿爾德裡奇和保羅 - 加索爾被低估瞭。的確，他們現在是隻有一個超級巨星的球隊，但是這不意味著科懷的身邊全是不中用的球員。大衛 - 李，戴德蒙還有米爾斯也都打出瞭相當不錯的表現。

Crazy how in a season Duncan retires, Diaw leaves, Gasol became apparently washed-up, and LMA visibly struggled offensively, they still grab 61.

huge credit to kawhi
there was a number of games that were down to the wire and Kawhi would do some 4th quarter heroics to save the game ( i.e against the rockets, the pelicans, etc )
這都要歸功於科懷 - 倫納德啊。
有好幾場比賽馬刺隊命懸一線，然後科懷在第四節接管比賽幫助球隊拿下勝利（比如對陣火箭、鵜鶘等等）。
