在冠状病毒大流行期间,爵士队比任何一支NBA球队都受到了更大的干扰。
爵士乐明星鲁迪·戈伯特和多诺万·米切尔都被测试为积极的,他们在世界范围内制造了新闻,加深了他们之间的裂痕。博扬·博格达诺维奇接受了赛季末的手术。一些队员被解雇了。现在,犹他州必须哀悼传奇教练杰里斯隆在一个社会距离。
至少犹他州会保留乔·英格尔斯,显然他至少考虑过退休。
澳大利亚美联社的彼得米切尔:
坐在西区第四位的犹他爵士队的关键成员英格尔斯曾表示,他准备“走开,飞到澳大利亚,在我的生活中再也不打一场比赛,对此非常满意”,以保护他的家人免受病毒感染。
他的妻子,澳大利亚网球巨星蕾娜·英格尔斯,正怀着他们的第三个孩子和四岁的儿子雅各布患有孤独症,免疫系统虚弱。
英格尔斯:
就背景而言,我在两个多月前说过,当时我们对病毒一无所知,也不知道它能做什么。我知道爵士乐/NBA只有在他们相信每个人的健康都是第一位的情况下才会让我们上场。当回去比赛安全的时候,我不会让队友失望的!https://t.co/zNonZRJHsN

英格尔斯几乎肯定不是唯一一个考虑退休的人。冠状病毒已经震撼了整个世界,并导致了一些激烈的想法。
但英格尔斯甚至表达了这种考虑是值得注意的。我没见过其他NBA球员那样做。
英格尔斯将在接下来的两个赛季内支付2390001美元。这笔钱也可以帮助他的家人。NBA的职业生涯很短,32岁的英格尔斯很可能再也赚不到这样的薪水了。
球员们普遍信任NBA专员亚当·西尔弗,他似乎正在着手恢复比赛。可能有一种安全的玩法,我相信西尔弗找到它的用意是好的。
然而,对大多数球员来说安全的条件未必对每个人都是安全的。每个参与NBA比赛的人都必须做出个人决定。

Joe Ingles considered retiring if necessary for family’s safety, now set to continue with Jazz
原文:
The Jazz have been more disrupted than any NBA team during the coronavirus pandemic.
Jazz stars Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell both tested positive, making worldwide news and deepening a rift between them. Bojan Bogdanovic underwent season-ending surgery. Some team employees got laid off. Now, Utah must mourn legendary coach Jerry Sloan in a time of social distancing.
At least Utah will keep Joe Ingles, who apparently at least considered retiring.
Peter Mitchell of the Australian Associated Press:
Ingles, a key member of the Utah Jazz who sit in fourth place in the Western Conference, has said he is prepared to “walk away, fly to Australia and never play another game in my life and be very content with it” to protect his family from the virus.
His wife, Australian netball great Renae Ingles, is expecting their third child and four-year-old son Jacob has autism and a weakened immune system.
Ingles:
For context, I said this over 2 months ago when we knew nothing about the virus & what it could do. I know the Jazz/NBA would only have us play if they were confident that everyone's health has been put first. When it's safe to go back and play, I will not let my teammates down! https://t.co/zNonZRJHsN

Ingles almost surely wasn’t alone in contemplating retirement. Coronavirus has shaken the entire world and led to some drastic thoughts.
But Ingles even voicing the consideration is notable. I haven’t seen any other NBA players else do that.
Ingles is due $23,900,001 the next two seasons. That money could help his family, too. NBA careers are short, and the 32-year-old Ingles will likely never earn that type of salary again.
Players generally trust NBA commissioner Adam Silver, who appears to be proceeding toward resuming games. There’s probably a safe way of playing, and I believe Silver is well-intentioned in finding it.
Yet, conditions safe for most players won’t necessarily be safe for everyone. Each person who’d be involved in an NBA game must make an individual decision.
