Argentine legend Diego Maradona described hisdecision to coach second-division Mexican clubDorados as a rebirth after years battling addictions, as he officially became the team's new manager lastMonday.
近日,阿根廷傳奇人物迭戈·馬拉多納將自己執(zhí)教墨西哥乙級俱樂部多拉多斯的決定形容為重獲新生。在與毒癮抗爭多年之后,他于上周一正式成為多拉多斯俱樂部的新經(jīng)理。
Maradona has raised eyebrows with the decision toaccept a job in the heart of Mexican drug cartel -- the rough-and-tumble state of Sinaloa.
馬拉多納曾因決定在混亂的錫那羅亞州的墨西哥販毒集團中工作,而令人驚訝不已。
But in his first press conference for Dorados, he described the job as a healthy new beginningafter a long "sickness," alluding to his very public struggles with drug addiction, alcoholismand obesity.
但在他出席多拉多斯俱樂部的第一次新聞發(fā)布會上,他將這份工作描述為自己經(jīng)歷了長期“疾病”后的一個新起點,暗指他在公眾面前與毒癮、酗酒和肥胖作斗爭。
"I want to give Dorados what I lost when I was sick," he told the 200 journalists who packed thehotel conference room in Culiacan, the state capital.
他向聚集在該州首府庫利亞坎的酒店會議室的200名記者透露:“我想把我生病時失去的東西送給多拉多斯,”
"I was sick for 14 years. Now I want to see the sun, I want to go to bed at night. I never evenused to go to bed. I didn't even know what a pillow was. That's why I accepted the offer fromDorados."
“我病了14年?,F(xiàn)在我想看太陽,晚上想睡覺。我以前甚至沒真正睡過覺。我甚至不知道什么是枕頭。這就是為什么我接受了多拉多斯的報價。”
Mexico was the scene of Maradona's greatest triumph as a player: He led Argentina to the 1986 World Cup title there.
墨西哥是馬拉多納作為球員取得最大成功的地方:他在那兒率領(lǐng)阿根廷隊贏得了1986年世界杯的冠軍。
But he surprised the soccer world with his decision to coach a second-division team who arecurrently in 13th place in their 15-team league.
但他決定執(zhí)教一支目前在15支球隊中排名第13位的乙級球隊,這也讓足球界大吃一驚。

LeBron James
詹姆斯以4年1.17億英鎊簽約湖人
LeBron James has changed teams, leaving hometownfranchise Cleveland Cavaliers for the sunnier climesthat life as a Los Angeles Laker will bring.
這個夏天,勒布朗·詹姆斯終究離開了家鄉(xiāng)小城克里夫蘭,來到了陽光更加明媚的洛杉磯。
That move alone is enough to make this past NBAoff-season one of the most historic in recent memory. But besides one of the greatest, if not the very best, players to ever play basketball switching jerseys, thatisn't the only notable move this summer.
單憑詹姆斯一人的簽約,就足以讓這個休賽期成為幾個賽季以來最具歷史意義的一個。但是,除了這位歷史第一小前鋒,或許是歷史第一球星,改換了東家之外,今年夏天還有著好幾筆堪稱震撼的簽約。
When an athlete as talented as LeBron James becomes available, there will of course be a fewmain suitors, but in reality, front offices across all 30 NBA teams will have at least explored howthey could entice the four-time MVP to sign with them.
當像勒布朗·詹姆斯這樣有天賦的運動員出現(xiàn)在自由市場上的時候,當然會有一些球隊成為他的主要潛在下家之一。但實際上,全聯(lián)盟所有30支球隊都在為如何吸引這位四屆MVP得主與他們簽約而絞盡腦汁。
LeBron bought a second property in Brentwood, Southern California last December for 17. 5mpounds, while LA can provide him with a strong platform for his business interests as he entersthe latter stages of his career. The fourth year of his deal is a player option, which essentiallymeans he's only under contract for three seasons.
去年12月,勒布朗以1750萬英鎊的價格在南加州的布倫特伍德買下了第二套房產(chǎn),因為當他進入職業(yè)生涯的后半段時,洛杉磯可以為他提供一個更為強大的商業(yè)平臺。合同的最后一年是球員選項,這意味著詹姆斯實際上只與湖人確保了接下來三個賽季的合同。
Kawhi Leonard
萊昂納德被馬刺交易到猛龍
Kawhi Leonard's departure from the Spurs was slow, painful and confusing. Neither side haspublicly commented on why their relationship eroded, but it's pretty clear that the two partiesstopped seeing eye to eye.
萊昂納德離開馬刺的過程無疑是非常緩慢、痛苦而又令人困惑的。無論是馬刺還是萊昂納德都沒有公開闡述雙方關(guān)系受損的原因,但很明顯,雙方就某些問題上產(chǎn)生了分歧。
Leaving San Antonio will also cost Leonard a pretty penny. Had he stayed, he would've beeneligible to sign a five-year 165m pounds supermax deal. Instead, the maximum deal he cannow sign is a four-year 144m pounds deal with the Raptors, while another team could only offerhim a maximum of 107m pounds across four seasons. The difference in earning potential couldcost Leonard as much as 58m pounds.
離開圣安東尼奧也會讓萊昂納德在經(jīng)濟上承受相當大的損失。如果能留守馬刺,萊昂納德就有資格簽下一份為期五年、價值1. 65億英鎊的超級合同。相反,他現(xiàn)在與猛龍隊最多只能簽下一份四年1. 44億英鎊的合同,而其他球隊則最多只能給他提供一份在四年1. 07億英鎊的合同。這次交易可能會使倫納德直接損失掉5800萬英鎊。
DeMarcus Cousins
考辛斯一年四百萬英鎊簽約勇士
Cousins averaged 25. 5 points, 12. 9 rebounds, 5. 4 assists, 1. 6 blocks and 1. 6 steals pergame in 2017-18. That level of production should put him in the highest contract tier. Insteadhe signed with the league's best side for a bargain price.
2017-18賽季,考辛斯場均能拿下25. 5分,12. 9個籃板,5. 4次助攻,1. 6次蓋帽和1. 6次搶斷。這樣出色的數(shù)據(jù)本來可以為他帶來一份頂薪合同。而事實卻恰恰相反,他以極低的價格與聯(lián)盟現(xiàn)在最好的球隊簽約。
For Golden State, the move is largely viewed as low-risk, exceptionally high-reward type ofmove. If it works, then the Warriors probably just secured their fourth championship in fiveyears. If it doesn't, they can sever their ties with him next summer with no financialramifications.
對于金州勇士來說,簽下考辛斯完全可以被視為一筆低風(fēng)險、高回報的精明交易。如果考辛斯成功融入球隊的話,那么勇士隊很可能拿下五年來的第四次總冠軍。如果考辛斯的表現(xiàn)未達預(yù)期,勇士也可以在明年夏天與他終止合同,而不用背負任何財務(wù)上的負擔。
Paul George
保羅喬治4年1.04億英鎊與雷霆續(xù)約
Last summer, the Oklahoma City Thunder took a huge risk in trading for Paul George. The smallforward only had a year left on his deal and it was widely believed that the Thunder were onlygetting the former Indiana Pacer as a one-year rental, as George was very vocal in outlining hislove for Los Angeles and desire to play for the Lakers.
去年夏天,雷霆為了得到保羅·喬治而冒了很大的風(fēng)險。當時,這位聯(lián)盟頂級小前鋒的合同還剩下一年,而人們普遍認為喬治只會在雷霆短暫停留,因為喬治曾數(shù)次直接在媒體面前表達他對洛杉磯的熱愛和為湖人效力的愿望。
The risk has paid off and now George will remain in Oklahoma for the next few seasons, makingthe Thunder dark horse contenders in the Western Conference.
而現(xiàn)在,雷霆甘冒風(fēng)險的勇氣已經(jīng)得到了回報,喬治在接下來的幾個賽季將繼續(xù)留在俄克拉荷馬。屆時,雷霆儼然會成為狂野西部中的一匹黑馬。
Isaiah Thomas
小托馬斯一年152萬英鎊與掘金簽約
Spare a thought for Isaiah Thomas. This time last year, it seemed a certainty that his nextcontract would be a huge one. The point guard was fresh off the best season of his career andcame fifth in the race to win the NBA's MVP award.
想一想,以賽亞·托馬斯在去年的這個時候完全有資格要求一份頂薪合同。這位控球后衛(wèi)剛剛度過了他職業(yè)生涯中最好的一個賽季,并在MVP評選中名列第五。
However,for now, the reverse happened and now he has to prove himself as an elite talentonce again, signing a short-term deal in hope of having a strong enough season to help himsecure a much bigger deal in 2019.
然而,時過境遷,眼下小托馬斯的情況正好與那時相反,現(xiàn)在他必須接受一份短期合同,以得到再次證明自己的機會。他現(xiàn)在只能期望自己能在接下來的賽季中重回巔峰,以便在2019年的夏天簽下一份與自己實力相符的合同。
