热点英文说 | 用狼人杀视角复盘NBA“莫雷事件”

What is the problem with people freely expressing their opinion? This freedom is an inherent American value and the NBA has been very progressive in allowing players and other constituents a platform to speak out on issues.

人们自由发表观点的问题是什么？ 这种自由是美国文化中天然的一部分，NBA也有很开放的价值观，允许球员和其他人士有平台就各种各样的话题发表看法。

The problem is, there are certain topics that are third-rail issues in certain countries, societies and communities.

但是问题是，有的话题在有的国家、社会和群体中是雷区。

Supporting a separatist movement in a Chinese territory is one of those third-rail issues, not only for the Chinese government, but also for all citizens in China.

支持中国领土上发生的分离主义运动就是一个雷区。 这不仅是对中国政府如此，而且对所有中国人民也是如此。

The one thing that is terribly misunderstood, and often ignored, by the western press and those critical of China is that 1.4 billion Chinese citizens stand united when it comes to the territorial integrity of China and the country’s sovereignty over her homeland.This issue is non-negotiable.

西方媒体和对中国持批判态度的人经常严重误解及忽略的一件事情，就是 14亿中国人在涉及中国领土完整和国家主权的问题上，紧密地团结在一起。这个问题是没有余地讨价还价的。

"There is no doubt, the economic impact is already clear. There have already been fairly dramatic consequences from that tweet, and I have read some of the media suggesting that we are not supporting Daryl Morey, but in fact we have. I think as a values-based organization that I want to make it clear that Daryl Morey is supported in terms of his ability to exercise his freedom of expression. "

“毫无疑问，经济方面的损失已经存在。莫雷的推特已经造成相当严重的后果，我看到有的媒体质疑说我们没有支持莫雷，事实上并非如此. 我想要重申的是联盟的价值观支持莫雷表达自己的观点。我支持他在这种情况下表达政治观点的权利。 ”

It’s not just about your feelings. It’s about the Houston Rockets. It’s about the National Basketball Association. It’s about multitude of people that extends far beyond yourself that you have compromised because you had this insatiable appetite to disseminate a tweet. You don’t know better than that, you’re no better than that.

这不仅关乎您的感受，这是关于休斯敦火箭队，关于整个NBA，关乎远远超出了您自己的却被您损害的有利益关系的一大帮人，就因为您克制不住自己来发一条推文。然而您知道的并不比这些人多，您不比这些人厉害。

See folks want to sit up here and act like we all should have license to say what we want say how we want to say it to whoever we Damn well please because it’s in the interest of righteousness.

人们总是想着高举临下就好像我们有权利说出任何想要说的话做任何想做的事，因为这是为了正义。

Ladies and gentlemen things aren’t that simple all the time.

女士们先生们，事情不是这样简单。

Your view of how things should be isn’t always shared and sometimes you take a unilateral or monolithic approach to things and they’re neither unilateral nor monolithic in any way.

您对事物应该如何进行的看法并非总是被广泛认同的，有时您对事物采取单方面的想法，但是事物并不总是单方面的。
