Toni Kukoc believes Kevin Durant is NBA's best player, not LeBron James
Toni Kukoc認為Kevin Durant是聯盟最佳球員而不是LeBron James
For two years, Kevin Durant and LeBron James stood atop the NBA as the
league's two best players, facing off in both the 2017 and 2018 NBA Finals.
在過去兩年的季後賽對決,這兩年來,Kevin Durant跟LeBron James被認為是聯盟裡最佳
的兩位球員。
Although KD's Warriors ran through the Cleveland Cavaliers in both series,
LeBron's miraculous performance in 2016 and overall track record still has
many fans anointing LeBron as the league's best player. But former Chicago
Bulls star Toni Kukoc is one of the few arguing for Durant's status as the
NBA's top talent.
雖然KD率領了勇士兩度擊敗騎士,但是LBJ在2016年奇蹟般的表現以及整體數據仍舊讓許多
粉絲認為LBJ才是聯盟最佳球員。不過,前公牛球星Toni Kukoc是其中幾位認為KD才是聯盟
最佳。
"Plenty of times LeBron is mistaken as a point guard," Kukoc wrote in a
Reddit AMA on Saturday. "Which is awesome. Kevin Durant, to me in my personal
opinion, is the best player in the NBA. He can easily bring the ball up the
floor. That's a style that the triangle offense allowed that any one of us
could run the point or be a post person or fill the corners. It's not
requirement to have a point guard, you can have skill players with 3 or 4
guys on the same team playing multiple positions."
「很多時候大家會把LBJ誤當作是個控衛,」Kukoc在Reddit寫到。「那很棒,但是就我個
人的意見來說,Kevin Durant才是聯盟最佳球員。他很輕鬆就可以在場上帶起球隊攻勢,
那就是我們的三角進攻的模式,我們球隊任何一個人都可以當控衛,或者打背框,或者跑
角落。控衛不是一定必要的,隊上可以有三到四個有技巧的球員可以跑多個位置的。」
Kukoc's game definitely is more closely mirrored by Durant, who had a
similarly lanky build.
Kukoc的球風跟KD比較相近,兩個都有類似瘦高的身材。
KD's offensive game might be the closest thing to limitless the league has
ever seen, but the way LeBron James essentially owned one of the league's two
conferences for nearly a decade is something that only has been replicated by
dynasties led by Michael Jordan, Larry Bird and Magic Johnson.
KD的進攻可能是聯盟近年來所看到最無法擋的,但是LBJ近十年來稱霸聯盟東區的歷史大概
也只有Michael Jordan,Larry Bird以及Magic Johnson等人所各自創立的球隊王朝能夠
相提並論。
Plus, only time will tell whether KD fully can ascend back to that elite
level from tearing his Achilles during the 2019 NBA Finals.
不過,只有時間才能證明,在2019年總冠傷了阿基里斯腱後,KD是否能真正恢復到以前頂
尖的身手了。
