最佳劇情：每個勇士隊員的使命：贏下全部。
Let's get realer than real—the Warriors are going to win the title. I can't see the future, but I'm just saying. The team lost a grand total of 39 regular-season games over the past three seasons. Eighteen teams lost 40 or more games just last season. The Warriors are historically dominant, relatively young, and not going anywhere anytime soon.
讓我們最現實的來講——勇士隊將贏下總冠軍。我不能預知未來，我只是說說。這支隊伍在過去三年的常規賽中輸掉“多”達39場比賽。而上個賽季有18支隊伍輸掉了40場及以上的常規賽。這支勇士有着歷史級別的統治力，相對年輕的隊員，而且這些球員都比較穩定。They have three of the best 10 players on earth—Steph Curry, Kevin Durant, and Draymond Green, all under 30 years old—plus Klay Thompson, prophet of Klaytheism. Steve Kerr is the best non-Popovich coach in the league (not that it matters; he sat out most of the 2015-16 season and numerous 2016-17 playoff games, including several during the Finals, and the Warriors never missed a beat).
這個世界上最好的10個球員中他們佔了3個——斯蒂芬-庫裏、凱文-杜蘭特、追夢-格林，全部在30歲以下——還能再加上克萊-湯普森（被稱作湯神）。科爾是這個聯盟中最好的“非波波維奇”教練（這無關緊要；他缺席了15-16賽季的大部分比賽，16-17賽季的多數季後賽，包括幾場總決賽，勇士都未陷入麻煩）。Last season the team posted a 115.6 offensive rating (tied for the best mark in history) and a 104 defensive rating (second best in the league) and won the title without breaking a sweat. This offseason, in what may be a replay of the Draymond Green draft, they added 6-foot-9 all-everything dynamo Jordan Bell out of Oregon after he slipped to the 38th overall pick. Oh, and they signed Nick Young. I mean, why not.
上個賽季，勇士有着115.6的進攻效率（平歷史最佳）和104的防守效率（聯盟第二），而得到冠軍又顯得那麼輕而易舉。這個休賽期，他們用第38順位招到來自俄勒岡大學6英尺9英寸的全能悍將——喬丹-貝爾，這像是格林選秀時的重演。哦，對了，他們還簽下了尼克-楊。我的意思是，爲什麼不能再次奪冠呢？Worst-Case Scenario: The owners side with President Donald Trump in the debate about free speech and protests during the national anthem. Durant's penchant for using dummy social media accounts to defend himself spirals into his offline persona.
最壞劇情：球隊老闆在國歌事件中針對“河蟹”和抗議站在特朗普總統這一邊。杜蘭特喜歡用小號來維護自己的名聲。The Yellowstone Caldera supervolcano erupts without warning. The warming of the planet continues unchecked. Millions of American citizens left to fend for themselves in the wake of a natural disaster. Massive wildfires raging across California.
黃石公園的超級火山毫無徵兆的爆發。地球變暖仍在繼續。數以百萬計的美國公民受到自然災害的波及而維持生計。大規模的野火肆虐加利福尼亞。Nuclear war on the Korean Peninsula. Rising tides of nationalism and white supremacy at home and across the globe. Ethnic cleansing. A hurricane hitting Ireland for the first time in recorded history. The deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history. The four horsemen of the apocalypse riding darkly across the land with sword and scythe and blood and fire.
朝鮮半島核戰爭。民族主義和白人至上主義在國內和全球興起。種族清冼。有史以來第一次颶風襲擊愛爾蘭。美國近代史上最致命的槍擊案。天啓四騎士在黑夜穿行殺人放火（天啓四騎士又叫末日四騎士，出自新約聖經末篇《約翰默示錄》，代表戰爭，饑荒，瘟疫和死亡。）。Basically everything that's already happening because—once again—barring injury or some unforeseen catastrophic disaster, the Warriors will win the title again.
基本上除了這些事都發生之外，只要沒有傷病和不可預料的大災難，勇士將會再次得到總冠軍。I doIn't know, maybe adding the chaotic chemistry of Nick "Swaggy P" Young causes the wheels to fall off? That's the best I can do.
我不知道，也許“Swaggy P”楊少俠的加入會破壞球隊的化學反應？這是我能想到的所有了。（注：“Swaggy P”是尼克-楊的外號，“swaggy”是耍酷耍帥的意思，至於爲什麼後面要加P，楊說還不透露。）更多精彩內容請關注微信公衆號、新浪微博：籃球英文堂
