Dwight Howard sends stern warning to rest of NBA amid Lakers’ recent struggles
by Paolo Songco
December 23, 2021


To say that the Los Angeles Lakers have failed to live up to the lofty
expectations many had on them prior to the start of the season would be an
understatement. The 2020 NBA champs have struggled mightily through the first
quarter of the campaign and at this point, many believe that the Lakers
should begin worrying about what the rest of the season holds for them.

這賽季湖人並未達到許多人在開季前對他們的期望。
2020總冠軍在本賽季初期苦苦掙扎，許多人開始認為湖人該擔心剩餘的賽程會發生什麼。


For his part, however, Lakers veteran Dwight Howard does not appear to be
overly concerned. The eight-time All-Star has been in this situation in the
past and Howard remains confident that his team has what it takes to turn
their season around:

然而，湖人陣中老將 Dwight Howard 似乎並沒有過度擔心。
曾入選8次全明星的魔獸過去一直處於這種狀況，他相信球隊有能力扭轉劣勢。


“Yeah, we good man,” Howard told TMZ Sports. “Right now this season it’s
early. Everybody’s playing at a really high level right now. We expected
that. We expected everybody to come out and play their hardest against us.
With that being said, we’re gonna be ready by the time the playoffs start.
That’s when we start dominating.

在接受《TMZ》訪問時，魔獸表示：

「我們很好，這賽季還早，現在每人都打出了高水準的表現。
  我們也預料到每支球隊都會拿出最佳表現來對抗我們。
  所以我們會在季後賽開始前做好準備，那就是我們開始統治比賽的時候。」


“Rome wasn’t built in a day. This is a brand new team than it was in 2020.
All of us are really trying to learn how to play together and get our games
going. It’s not about how you start, it’s how you finish. Don’t worry,
Lakers fans. When it’s time to dominate, the Lakers gon’ be there.”

「羅馬不是一天造成的。
  和2020相比這是一支全新的隊伍，所有人都在試著學習如何聚在一起打球、如何打出
  我們風格的比賽。重要的不是如何開始，而是如何結束。

  湖迷們別擔心，當需要統治比賽的時候，湖人就會在那出現。」
