郵差質疑溜馬：你們為甚麼要放掉小沙這樣的球員？
Domantas Sabonis has been a dominant force for the Sacramento Kings this season,
and legendary big man Karl Malone recently took the time to criticize the India
na Pacers for trading him away.
Domantas Sabonis本賽季一直是沙加緬度國王隊的主力球員，傳奇大個子Karl Malone最近
花時間批評印第安納溜馬隊將他交易走。
The Pacers traded Sabonis in a six-player deal last season, and he has played a
major role in helping the Kings turn eir entire franchise around. After years
of being in the NBA’s basement, the Kings now appear to be the real deal and ar
e currently sitting at the No. 3 seed in the Western Conference.
溜馬隊上賽季在六人的交易中送走了Sabonis，他在幫助國王隊扭轉整支球隊方面發揮了重
要作用。 在NBA倒數多年之後，似乎看起來對國王隊來說是關鍵的交易，目前排在西區的3
號種子。
Malone questioned the wisdom of the Pacers for ever letting Sabonis go.
Malone質疑溜馬隊讓Sabonis離開是否明智。
“Why would you ever trade a player like that?” he asked, according to Chris Sh
eridan of Legends Magazine.
在接受雜誌採訪時Malone問道：你們為什麼要交易那樣的球員？
So far this season, Sabonis has been on a tear. He’s averaging 18.8 points, 12.
3 rebounds and 6.9 assists per game in 55 games. He’s hitting 61.1 percent of h
is field goals and 34.8 percent of his 3-point shots.
本賽季到目前為止，Sabonis表現一直很出色。他在55場比賽中場均得到18.8分，12.3個籃
板和6.9次助攻。他的投籃命中率為61.1%，三分命中率為34.8%。
He’s earned his third selection to the All-Star Game this season.
本賽季是他第三次入選全明星賽。
Most importantly, the Kings finally look like they have a core of talented playe
rs that can lead the franchise to a much brighter future.
最重要的是，國王隊看起來終於有了一群有天賦的核心球員，他們可以帶領球隊走向更加光
明的未來。
The team currently has six players that are averaging 11.9 points per game or mo
re, and guard De’Aaron Fox is leading the way with an impressive 24.8 points pe
r game.
球隊目前有6名球員場均得分達到或超過11.9分，後衛De’Aaron Fox以驚人的場均24.8分領
先全隊。
One thing the Kings will surely want to do once the regular season resumes after
the All-Star break is continue winning at a solid clip. Though Sacramento curre
ntly owns the No. 3 seed, the West is incredibly congested this season.
一旦全明星賽後例行賽重新開打，國王隊肯定會想要做的一件事就是繼續以穩定的速度取勝
。雖然沙加緬度國王目前排在第3種子，但本賽季西區排名非常擁擠。
As for the Pacers, their season is looking pretty bleak. They’re currently the
No. 12 seed in the East and 2.5 games back from the No. 10 seed, the final seed
to advance to the play-in tournament.
至於溜馬隊，他們的賽季看起來相當慘淡。 他們目前是東區的12號種子，距離附加賽最後
一個名額的10號種子2.5場勝差。
With that in mind, Tyrese Haliburton, one of the players the Pacers received in
return for Sabonis, earned his firstAll-Star Game berth this season.
考慮到這一點，溜馬隊用Sabonis換來的球員之一Tyrese Haliburton本季入選了他的第一次
全明星賽。
