Shams Charania報導西門G4沒上場引發籃網管理層的失望
Sunday’s events triggered frustration and disheartenment throughout the organiz
ation, multiple sources said. The fallout of Simmons being ruled out Sunday led
to a meeting among franchise officials, Simmons and his agent, Klutch Sports CEO
Rich Paul, on Monday in Brooklyn.
According to sources, Simmons told those in the room that a mental block exists
for him, dating in part to last summer’s postseason, which is creating stress t
hat could serve as a trigger point for his back issues. He added that he does wa
nt to play basketball and play for the Nets as he works on solutions in regard t
o his well-being.
多位消息人士指稱，因為西門G4沒有上場，導致管理層感到沮喪。因為這件事，西門跟他的
經紀人Rich Paul與籃網高層在週一時開了會。
西門告訴在會議中說，他有精神障礙的問題，一部分是因為去年季後賽，這件事造成他有壓
力，而這個壓力是”引發”他背部疼痛的原因。他也補充，他真的很想上場幫籃網打球，也
因此他一直致力於解決他的健康問題。
Simmons had been described as pain-free for the majority of the past month but b
egan to cite soreness in his back on Friday, and a scheduled scrimmage was pushe
d back, multiple sources said. Simmons conducted two full-court scrimmages last
week on Monday and Wednesday, in which there was low intensity displayed, those
sources said. Throughout Simmons’ rehab, both Durant and Irving, for their part
, publicly downplayed their expectations for a Simmons return and said the goal
is to get him healthy.
多位消息人士指稱，西門在過去一個月大多時候都沒有疼痛問題，然而在週五(籃網第三戰)
時卻開始有了背部痠痛，還因此推遲了表定的全場5v5練習。上週一和週三西門進行了兩次強
度較低的全場練習。KD及KI公開淡化他們對西門回歸賽場的期望並表示讓他健康才是目標。
On Sunday, Simmons informed the team his back was sore. For Nets players, the co
nfusion was not centered around Simmons’ ailment, but with the perceived lack o
f attempt to play, effort to be in uniform and push his body in these high-stake
s playoffs, sources said. Nets players and coaches wanted to see Simmons show re
solve and enter this series to start his on-court Brooklyn tenure, even if it wa
s for limited minutes on Monday or none at all while still dressing for the game
.
然後G4賽前，西門通知球隊他的背部仍然痠痛。對籃網球員來說，他們對西門感到困惑並不
是因為他的傷病，而是西門沒有嘗試上場打球，沒有努力推動自己並穿上球衣在高強度的季
後賽出現。籃網球員及教練希望能看到西門表現出決心並在這系列賽開始他籃網的職業生涯
，即便這場比賽有限制時間或甚至沒有上場，仍然要穿上球衣準備上場。
Many had hoped Simmons would find a way to make his debut amid a back issue as w
ell. He made all of the necessary progressions in rehab and showed optimism abou
t joining the team on the floor. That’s why, after a recovery process of starts
, stops, delays and questions, the Nets and Simmons finally felt he was on the d
oorstep of a return. And it didn’t happen.
許多人希望西門找到方法帶著背傷上場。他在復健的過程中達成所有必要的進展，並且表現
出想上場的積極度。籃網和西門終於感覺他要回歸時，在復健過程中經歷了開始、暫停、延
遲和問題後，最終還是沒有發生。
B/R的記者Jake Fischer也報導了西門的相關訊息
Before the Celtics series began on Easter Sunday, league sources told B/R the 25
-year-old three-time All-Star and Nets personnel were confident he was on track
to play as early as Game 3. Then his purported timeline became Game 4. That is u
ntil Sunday, when Simmons informed Brooklyn staffers he was experiencing back so
reness, one day before Monday’s fateful Game 4 defeat.
在系列賽開始前，西門和籃網對於他在G3有機會出賽充滿信心，之後上場時間改為G4。而G4
前一天他通知球隊他背部痠痛無法上場。
The Nets ruled Simmons out of Game 4 altogether, sources said, as a sense of fat
igue from the situation and general disappointment seemed to permeate the franch
ise. After visiting the floor for pregame warm-ups prior to Game 3, Simmons did
not partake in any pregame work Monday and was not present on the bench alongsid
e his teammates for Game 4, which one source told B/R was because of his lingeri
ng back discomfort.
消息人士稱，籃網第四戰直接把西門上場狀況排為rule out，因為這種疲勞感與失望滲透了
整隻球隊。在G3賽前熱身後，西門沒有參加G4的賽前活動，也沒有出現在板凳席，因為他的
背痛。
