－關於陣容輪替
“Loon will come back as the starter,” Kerr said. “He has earned that and
then some. We’re all thrilled that he’s back. There was a real fear that we
’d lose him. To get him back is massive for our team. It sets up well for
Loon to continue what he did for us last year. In doing so, he’s really a
good mentor for James.”
Kerr：魯尼會作為先發成員回歸，他替自己贏得這個位置。大家對於他的回歸感到興奮，
很擔心會失去他，而他的回歸對於我們是很重大的。Loon 可以持續做好他去年所做的，
會是小智的好榜樣。
Kerr has admitted in the past to some missteps with Wiseman in his rookie
season, overcomplicating his responsibilities and juggling around his role.
It’s clear Kerr wants to simplify Wiseman’s duties — rim run, pick-and-roll
screen, run the floor, protect the rim — as he steps into the fold again,
backing up Looney.
Kerr承認在小智的新賽季時，用了錯誤的方法，讓小智的任務太過複雜，使得他很難應付
。顯然的，Kerr將會簡化小智的任務，籃下跑動、擋拆、跑動、護框，讓他會重新回到場
上，跟在Loon的背後。
“I think this will be a more natural progression for James, one that didn’t
really happen his rookie year because of the situation,” Kerr said.
“ We felt like we needed to get him as much experience as possible,
and Looney was coming off a season where he missed all that time with
the nerve issues. So this seems much more natural, much more organic.
Loon is the incumbent, the championship starting center who has seen everything. Then you have James who
will learn from him and with him and will get his chances as we go. It’s a
healthy growth situation for James.”
Kerr：我認為這樣做會讓小智更自然得取得進步，這是在他的新秀賽季沒有發生的。
我們認為讓他盡可能的得到更多經驗。Loon是現任的冠軍先發中鋒，他見過大風大浪。
所以小智會跟著魯尼學習，並得到機會。這對小智而言是一個更加健康的環境。
小智、阿嘎、Moody加入新輪替，會不會讓下個賽季比起上一個賽季，有更大的挑戰?
“I don’t know that it’s a bigger challenge because last year felt like a
huge challenge going in,” Kerr said. “Last year felt more daunting because
we’d had two lousy seasons in a row. This year feels different because we’
re the defending champs. It feels like we’ve got our groove back. We’ll
have Klay back for a full season. Our foundation in place. While we’re
absolutely going to play a lot of young guys, we kind of have a core six, a
foundational six players who are really the ones that make everything happen
and will allow us to bring the young guys along.”
Kerr：我不知道今年會不會是一個更巨大的挑戰，因為去年就是一個巨大的挑戰。
在連續經歷兩個不好的賽季是很令人氣餒。但今年很不同，我們是衛冕軍的身分，
感覺我們找回過去的狀態。KT會回來打滿整個賽季，核心陣容全員到齊。
雖然隊上多了很多年輕球員，但我們有一個核心的六人組合(SC、KT、DG、AW、Looney
、JP)，他們是一群會讓一切發生的人，使我們能夠把年輕人帶在身邊。
Kerr是否認為Moody、JK、小智已經做好上場的準備?
“All of them have shown really good signs,” Kerr said.
Kerr：他們都有表現出很好的跡象。
“JK had a stretch last year where — I think it was March, early April — he
played really well and started to get more comfortable. He didn’t get as
much run in the playoffs, but that’s normal for a rookie, especially once we
were fully healthy.
"JK去年有一段時期，我想是3月、4月初，他打得非常好，開始變得更加舒服。
季後賽時，他沒有太多的機會，但對於一個新秀來說是很正常的，
尤其是全員都很健康時。"
“Moses looks the part. He’s got a more advanced, well-rounded game than JK
right now in terms of how it fits with the others. That 3-and-D position. He
projects to be a part of things next year. He showed it in the playoffs
against Dallas.
“Moody看起來是這樣。比起JK，他更加的成熟、全面，更懂得與其他人配合。
預計他明年會參與更多3D的位置。他在季後賽打獨行俠時證明了這一點。
“Then James I actually think had some really good moments his rookie year.
It gets lost in the shuffle because overall it was a struggle for our team
and James had ups and downs. But you remember he had some really big games
for us. As he continues to build momentum and gain confidence in his body and
skills, I think he’ll help us.”
"我認為小智在他的菜鳥賽季，還是有一些不錯的時刻，但被遺忘了。因為整支球隊是打
的很掙扎，所以小智也跟著起起伏伏。但你要記得他也為我們打過一些非常重要的比賽。
隨著他繼續建立一些動力，並對自己的身體狀況、技能得到信心，我想他會幫助我們。"
Kerr談新自由球員簽約（Donte DiVincenzo 、JaMychal Green）：
“Donte is a perfect fit for the way we play,” Kerr said. “The ball
movement, the cutting. He’s a great cutter. He’s a really good spot-up
shooter. He’s a good passer on the move. He’s not just a spot-up shooter. He
’s a secondary playmaker. Pretty bouncy, but with a great feel for the game.
He’s gonna fit right in.”
"Donte非常適合我們的比賽方式，球的轉移、切入。他是一名好的切入者，也是一個非常
好的定點射手。他在移動中也很會傳球，不只是定點射手，也是一名第二持球點，非常具
有彈性，對比賽也有很好的感覺。他會適應的很好。"
“JaMychal’s the logical replacement for Otto and Beli,” Kerr said. “One
guy replacing two. He’s capable of sort of playing either role, the four or
the five. If he’s playing with Draymond, he can stretch the floor and can
guard the five, while Draymond guards the four. He gives us frontcourt
flexibility.
" JaMychal是OPJ和查哥的代替者，他一個人取代了這兩個人。他有能力扮演任何角色，
四號位或五號位。如果他和Draymond一起上場，他可以拉開空間，並去守五號位，而
Draymond去守四號位。他讓我們的前場更加的靈活。"
Kerr談到小AI：
“I leave Andre alone,” Kerr said. “He knows where we stand. If he wants to
come back, we’d love to have him. The one thing we feel strongly about with
Andre is we want to give him whatever space and time he needs to make a
decision. I’m leaving him alone. Whenever he makes his decision is fine with
us.”
"我讓Andre一個人想想，他知道我們的立場。如果他想回來，我們很樂意擁有他。我們想
讓Andre強烈的感受到，我們會給他更多的時間和空間來做決定。我們不打擾他，無論他
做出什麼決定，我們都會欣然接受。"
