Veteran center David West nearing decision to return to Warriors
大衛西傾向留在勇士

David West didn’t want to answer questions about his future in the immediate
aftermath of the Warriors’ NBA title earlier this month. However, the
veteran big man broached the subject on Uninterrupted’s Open Run podcast
posted Thursday.
大衛西在勇士封王活動剛結束時並不想回答關於他將來去向的問題，不過星期四在一個節  
目上，這個大個老將說到了他的未來動向。

Retire or return?
退休還是繼續打球？

“I’m thinking about it. I’m kinda leaning toward playing again,” said
West, a free agent as of Friday. “Probably just gonna give it a couple more
days or so just to keep running it through my head. But if I do keep playing,
it’s gonna be out here. It’s just such a great spot. I really enjoyed the
environment, enjoy the guys.”


West, who turns 37 in August, averaged 4.6 points and 3.0 rebounds in 68
regular-season games and added 4.5 points and 2.7 rebounds per game during
the playoffs.
大衛西今年八月就滿37歲，68場季賽平均4.6分，3個籃板；季後賽平均4.5分跟2.7個籃    
板。

“Health-wise I feel good,” West said. “It’s just a part of the grind. We
ask our bodies and our minds to do a lot, so at this stage, I have to
consider it just about every offseason. Think about it, just make the smart
decision.”
「就健康方面來說，我覺得很不錯，」大衛西說，「我們的身心在季賽跟季後賽都做了很  
多努力，身體會有所損傷，所以在現在這個階段，我要想想看，然後做智慧的選擇。」

Which is why he did not want to decide his future right after Golden State
captured the championship. Instead, he soaked in the moment.
所以這也是大衛西在剛拿到冠軍之後並沒有立刻做決定，相反地，他選擇沉潛。

“Oh my god. It’s been a long journey and it feels great to get here,” West
said through happy huffs and puffs following the title-clinching win June 12.
“It feels better than I thought it would, in all honesty. It’s not about
being the No. 1 or No. 2, or getting all the shots — that stuff’s
irrelevant. It’s about winning.”


It’s sounding like West wants to continue winning.
聽起來大衛西想繼續贏下去。

“Coming into these high-caliber environments, it was really the only move
that made sense for me in the place that I’m at,” West said on Open Run. “
I really don’t have a lot of space for… the ups and downs that come with
being in the NBA and being on teams that necessarily don’t have championship
aspirations. The NBA, for me at this stage, is only worth it if I can get in
those really elite environments, around the elite talent and around the guys
that are trying to win every single night.”
