Kevin Durant had to relearn how to walk, run and jump
Kevin Durant得要重新學習如何走路，跑步跟跳

Exactly 548 days after he ruptured his Achilles tendon, Kevin Durant vividly
described his recovery as a process in which he had to relearn how to walk
and how to run in the early stages of his rehabilitation.
在KD的阿基里斯腱斷裂後足足548天後，他生動的描述在他復健的初期，他得要重新學習走
路跟跑步的過程。

“It was definitely new. I never experienced anything close to that," Durant
said. "Learning how to walk again, not walking and getting assistance in
everything you do those first 3-4 months was tough. I’ve been through
surgeries and injuries before, but the longest recovery I had was three
months.


“The first days of the Achilles was three months long. Couldn’t walk or
run, had to use a scooter, so I think those milestones, and learning how to
walk, run and jump again, that’s underestimated. People don’t realize that.
The Achilles, that ligament, is one of the strongest ligaments in your body,
but after it pops, you have to build that back up.”


Durant spoke after going through an individual workout in Brooklyn on the
first day of training camp. The entire Nets team cannot practice together
until Saturday under NBA rules, and there will be a very short amount of
together time before the Nets open the 2020-21 preseason on Sunday, Dec. 13,
against the Washington Wizards. Their regular-season schedule has not yet
been announced.


That first exhibition game could mark the returns of both Durant and John
Wall from ruptured Achilles tendons, and Durant said he had a “deep convo”
with Wall about how they've been sidelined for such a long period of time.
這第一場熱身賽將會宣告KD跟John Wall兩個都受了阿基里斯腱傷後的正式回歸，而KD說他
跟Wall有過深談，講到他們在因傷得要坐在場邊有過如此長的時間。

Durant, who was mostly unemotional during his Zoom interview as part of Media
Week, took issue with reports that he had spoken about joining forces with
James Harden while working out in Los Angeles. Those reports prompted a flood
of news articles about Harden wanting to be traded to the Nets.


“I don’t know where you’re making these stories that me and James talked
about any of this at a workout," Durant said. "I don’t know where any of
that came from. James is a friend of mine, but I let the front office handle
all that stuff. I was just focused on working out.
「我不知道你們這些人哪裡捏造出這些故事的，說我跟鬍子在一起訓練的時候有講到那
些，」KD說。「我搞不清楚這些消息是哪裡來的，鬍子是我的朋友，但是我讓制服組去處
理這一類的事情，我那時候只有專注在訓練上。」

“I heard all the noise, and I heard that James potentially wanted to come to
the Nets. But anybody can make up stories and write a story and it gets some
traction. But nothing is ever set in stone until it’s set in stone.”
「我有聽到那些流言蜚語，我有聽到說鬍子想要來籃網，但是任何一個人都可以編造出一
堆故事，然後寫出來，得到一些注意。但是，在一切沒有確定之前，都是空話。」

When Durant returns, it will be his first game since June 10, 2019, when he
was injured in Game 5 of the NBA Finals against the Toronto Raptors. He was
still with the Golden State Warriors then. After joining the Nets last
offseason, he spent the 2019-20 season in street clothes, then caught
coronavirus in March.


He was one of several members of the team to contract COVID-19, which new
coach Steve Nash said might just be a benefit to the team because so many
players now know what having coronavirus entails.
他是籃網隊裡面幾位得到武漢肺炎的人之一，而新教練Steve Nash說這可能對球隊來說是
好事，因為這樣很多球員對於武漢肺炎就會有了警覺。

Durant said he did not pick up any new hobbies during his rehab and sort of
enjoyed his ”me time” away from the day-to-day obligations that come with
being an NBA player. At the same time, he sounded eager to return, but
cautioned that at 32 years old -- and with 988 career regular-season and
postseason games under his belt -- he may never be able to describe himself
as “100 percent.”


Nets general manager Sean Marks also addressed the Harden rumblings, saying
he tries to explain to players that rumors and speculation are a part of the
NBA life, and the best thing to stay focused on is the task at hand on any
given day. Nash ducked a question about Harden.


It is questionable whether Harden would even be a good fit for a Nets team
that already has a ball-dominant player in Kyrie Irving and a former MVP in
Durant, and those two will play alongside a core that includes Jarrett Allen
and DeAndre Jordan at center, Joe Harris and Caris LeVert on the wings and
Spencer Dinwiddie and new acquisitions Jeff Green and Bruce Brown anchoring
the bench.
籃網已經有了一個很需要球權的Kyrie Irving以及一個前MVP球員KD，這兩位將會跟球隊裡
的其他核心球員包括中鋒DeAnfre Jordan，Joe Harris跟Caris LeVert兩個側翼，以及
Spencer Dinwiddie，還有新加入的Jeff Green跟Bruce Brown在板凳，所以鬍子來籃網到
底適不適合還是個問題。

Nash said it was probably unrealistic to expect either Durant or Irving
(shoulder surgery) to play all 72 games.
教練Nash說對於要KD或者接受肩部手術的KI打滿72場比賽是不切實際的。

But just having Durant and Irving on the court together for a single game is
something the Nets have waited on for nearly a year-and-a-half, so anything
positive that results from their pairing will have been worth the wait.
但是即使KD跟KI兩個人一起在球場打了一場比賽，那就是籃網在一年半的等待所殷切盼
望的。所以，只要這兩個人一起打球有加分的效果，那這一切的等待就值了。
