騎士內部分裂派系，Thompson：場下不和並不影響整體表現 精選

騎士在今天對溜馬的比賽中讓Tristan Thompson重新擔任正選，在前一天的訓練中，騎士教練Tyronn Lue 已經宣佈了Tristan Thompson會取代Jae Crowder 重新進入正選陣容。

在訓練後的採訪中，Tristan Thompson少有地回應記者關於騎士內部的問題，這位騎士中鋒首先承認球隊內出現關係不和的情況。

引用Thompson went on to say that team camaraderie is overblown in the results-driven NBA.

"I mean, you go to work every day, and you might not like a guy," Thompson said. "You might not like the guy you work with. So it's part of life, but at the end of the day when we're between these lines, we got to play for one another and that's all that matters. I don't care if X don't like X off the court. I really don't give a s---. As long as you're on the court playing hard and playing for each other, that's all that matters to me. We don't got to talk to each other off the court. As long as we talk on the court, on the defensive end, that's all that matters to me."

Tristan Thompson形容球隊團結在NBA中過份美化。

「我的意恩是，就像每天上班一樣，你總有可能見到你不喜歡的人。」Thompson 說，「我可能不喜歡你的同事。這是生活的一部分，但到了一天的最後，我們還是得一起上陣比賽，我們還得與對手比賽。我不在乎誰希望誰上場，我才不會理這些。只要上到場就會盡全力比賽，這對我來說才是最重要的。我們在比賽之後不會跟對方(隊友)說話。我們只會在比賽時跟對方說話，在防守端溝通，這就是我在乎的事。」
