“I was never the new kid in school or anything, so this was the closest
thing for me to changing schools and going through that. For me, it would’ve
been cool if [things ended differently with the Knicks]. I was hurt when I
got traded, so it would’ve been cool for me if I had at least gotten to play
my last games with them. I was sitting out for like a month and by the time I
got traded, it was a deflating feeling, especially with that season that we
were having. I felt like I didn’t get a chance to help get us out of the
hole, you know what I mean? (winces) I just felt bad and felt like we had
dropped a bunch of games. I felt bitter that I had to leave on such a bad
note. I just remember the feeling [sucked]. It was like, ‘Ah, I’m hurt, we’
ve lost a bunch of games in a row and then I’m traded.’ Then, shortly after
we walk in and we get to playing with the Cavs, we go on a long winning
streak. I kept thinking back to my old teammates like, ‘Damn, I was hurt and
we were losing. Now I come here and I’m playing well and the energy is great.
’ I just felt like they kind of grabbed me out of hell. And every game was
being showcased on TV and we’re winning. It was just crazy. I was happy, but
I felt bad too.”
我從來沒有轉過校，這個交易就像是轉校。我被交易時感到受傷，如果能夠再和我的隊
友再一起打一場比賽就好了。被交易時我對於過去的一年感到洩氣。我覺得我沒辦法幫
助我們的隊友脫離苦海。我感覺很糟，覺得輸了一堆球。輸了一堆球後被交易讓我覺得
更糟。
但當我開始為騎士比賽後，我們連勝了好幾場。我不斷地想起我的舊隊友：輸球時，我
感到受傷，現在我來到這裡，我打的很好，而且充滿活力。我覺得這些把我從地獄
抓出來。現在每場球都會出現在電視上，而我們持續獲勝，這感覺棒極了～
我很高興，但我也感到良心不安～

Things have been going much better in Cleveland for Shumpert and his team,
which he credited to its superior culture. “There’s really no in-between
times or joking around or room for errors,” he said to HoopsHype. “Everyone
pretty much has their head on straight and [is focused]. Then, after
practice, guys have to go home to their families. When guys come in, it’s to
get their work done and there’s a level of seriousness.
香波認為騎士高尚的文化幫了很大的忙。工作是工作，家庭就是家庭。
“I was definitely ready to win, I was ready for that [kind of atmosphere].
You can do that with a younger team too — I’m not saying you have to have
an older team [to be focused and win] — but there was definitely a
difference in the culture when I came here.”
