勒布朗·詹姆斯上赛季很喜欢和斯蒂芬·库里一起挑选全明星阵容，并且他没有觉得这个赛季在电视上播出挑选有什么的负面的影响。
LeBron James enjoyed picking his All-Star squad with Steph Curry last season and doesn't see a downside to watching that process play out on television this season.
ESPN证实，联盟和NBA球员协会已经同意电视转播这两位全明星队长，为他们选择2019年夏洛特全明星赛的阵容。纽约时报首先报道了这一消息。
ESPN confirmed that the NBA and NBA Players Association have agreed to televise the two All-Star captains selecting their squads for the 2019 All-Star Game in Charlotte. The New York Times was first to report the news.
“有什么不好的吗？这是全明星周末，”当被问及电视节目主持人的选择是否是一件好事时，詹姆斯说，"你有24个世界上最优秀的球员。不管你是第一个被选还是最后一个被选，你都是世界上最好的24个人。我认为不会很糟。我们拭目以待吧。”
"What's bad about it? It's All-Star Weekend," James said when asked if televising the captains' choices would be a good thing. "You got 24 of the best players in the world that's going to make the team. It doesn't matter if you're first or last, you're 24 of the best in the world at that point in time. I don't think it'll be bad. We'll see."
去年，NBA在全明星赛制上又出现了一个新的玩法，全明星赛由球迷们继续为东西部挑选五名先发球员。然而，东西部各自的选票榜领跑者可以像梦幻选秀一样，为他们的阵容中征召其他11名成员。
Last year, the NBA introduced a new wrinkle to the All-Star Game format with fans continuing to select the five starters for the Eastern and Western Conference. However, the leading vote-getter in each conference would get to draft the other 11 members on their squad like a fantasy draft.
詹姆斯和库里是上个赛季作为参与这个过程的第一任队长。
James and Curry were the first captains to partake in the process last season.
“那太好了，我和斯蒂芬，我们在电话里选秀的时候玩得很开心，”詹姆斯说，他和湖人签约后正式西游。“篮球范特西。这很有趣。”
"It was great, me and Steph, we had a great time drafting on the phone just picking," said James, who now is in the Western Conference after signing with the Lakers. "Fantasy basketball for us. It was fun."
詹姆斯说：“娱乐价值将会归结为谁是被选出的队长。”
James said the entertainment value would come down to who is chosen captains.
詹姆斯说：“我认为显然有一些特别的东西可以增加到其中。”但这要取决于队长们投入的程度，已经最终的选秀结果。我们拭目以待。”
"I think obviously there are certain personalities that can add to it," James said. "But it all depends how much the captains are going to get into it, as far as their draft boards. We'll see."
