Bill Russell won more than you. The NBA’s greatest champion has more rings than Michael Jordan and LeBron James, combined. He has more rings than Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O’Neal, combined. He has more rings than all but two NBA franchises.

　　比尔·拉塞尔赢得的荣誉远远超越你我，这位NBA历史上最伟大的总冠军球员手上佩戴的总冠军戒指比迈克尔·乔丹和勒布朗·詹姆斯两人加在一起还多，科比·布莱恩特和沙奎尔·奥尼尔的组合也要甘拜下风。只有两支球队获得的总冠军数量可以超过拉塞尔。

　　So yeah, he’s the one guy who can look down a row of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Dikembe Mutombo, Shaquille O’Neal, David Robinson and Alonzo Mourning and tell them …. take it away, Bill

　　是的，因此贾巴尔﹑穆托姆博﹑奥尼尔﹑罗宾逊和莫宁的颁奖嘉宾阵在拉塞尔眼中也不过如此，他还对他们喷垃圾话……安心拿走奖杯吧，比尔。

　　That moment of hilarity came after a wonderful Lifetime Achievement Award recognition in the first-ever NBA Awards Show.

　　这有趣的一幕发生在NBA首届颁奖典礼终身成就奖的颁发仪式上。

　　Russell deserves everything. What a legend. What an icon.

　　拉塞尔配得上任何荣誉，他代表着传奇，代表着偶像。

　　Oklahoma City guard Russell Westbrook closed down the day’s festivities by bringing home his first MVP trophy, beating out James Harden of the Houston Rockets and Kawhi Leonard of the San Antonio Spurs in one of the most entertaining races in league history.

　　本届典礼可能是联盟历史上最具娱乐性的颁奖典礼之一，最后一个颁发的奖项是最有价值球员奖，雷霆队后卫威斯布鲁克击败了休斯顿火箭队的詹姆斯·哈登和圣安东尼奥马刺队的考瓦伊·莱昂纳德首次获此殊荣。

　　Another close race was for Rookie of the Year, which was ultimately bestowed upon Milwaukee Bucks guard Malcolm Brogdon. The second-round pick in last year’s draft received the honor over Philadelphia 76ers pair Joel Embiid and Dario Saric.

　　密尔沃基雄鹿队于去年选中的二轮新秀马尔科姆·布罗格登在与费城76人队的乔尔·恩比德和达里奥·萨里奇的激烈竞争中脱颖而出，获得了最佳新秀的称号。

　　The Bucks weren’t done winning awards, though, as Giannis Antetokounmpo earned Most Improved Player. Although the Greek Freak wasn’t in attendance to accept the hardware, he delivered a message through the Bucks’ Twitter account, and some of his teammates reacted accordingly.

　　布罗格登的队友扬尼斯·安特托孔波获得了最快进步球员奖，这位希腊球星并未现身颁奖典礼，而是通过雄鹿队的官方推特账号发来信息，和队友进行互动。

　　Coach of the Year went to Mike D’Antoni of the Rockets, who opened his acceptance speech with a zinger directed at the sportswriters who might have both voted for him this year and once ridiculed him during his tumultuous tenure with the New York Knicks.

　　休斯顿火箭队的德安东尼获得了最佳教练奖。他在获奖致辞的开头就巧妙地调侃了为自己投票或拿自己在纽约尼克斯队糟糕的执教经历开涮的体育记者。

　　All-NBA teams were also announced earlier Monday, and the results were met with mixed emotions.

　　今日提前公布的NBA最佳阵容则引发了一定的争议。

　　Rockets guard Patrick Beverley received plenty of digital love from his teammates following the announcement that he made this year’s All-Defensive First Team.

　　休斯顿火箭队的后卫帕特里克·贝佛利入选了年度最佳防守阵容，他在社交媒体上获得了队友们的祝福。

　　Boston Celtics guard Avery Bradley finished 10th in All-Defensive Team voting, and NBA players were both surprised and angry about it. Some of the league’s biggest stars took to Twitter to argue that Bradley was robbed of a spot.

　　波士顿凯尔特人队的后卫布拉德利在最佳防守阵容的评选中仅居第十位，NBA球员对此纷纷感到震惊与愤怒，联盟的一些大牌球星则在推特为布拉德利鸣不平。

　　Regardless of the final vote count, it’s clear the 26-year-old has the respect of his peers.

　　尽管得票数不尽如人意，但是布莱德利很显然得到了现役球员的认同。
