大家晚安！吉娜英文的頻道有重大改變了，想要知道為什麼，要看影片喔。今天課程的主題是【會議還要開多久才會結束】How long until the meeting is over? 英文有四個說法來表達這個意思，你會第幾種方式呢？這個句子最特別的地方是 until 的使用，有一種要到什麼時候的感覺，until (直到~)。
第01個例句：
A: How long until the meeting is over? I need to contact a client.
B: I think we will have about an hour left.
A: 會議還要多久才會結束？我要打電話聯絡客戶。
B: 我想還要一個小時。
第02個例句：
A: How long until this meeting finishes? I gotta get going.
B: I'm not sure. I think we're about halfway through.
A: 會議還要多久才會結束？我必須先離開。
B: 我不確定。我想我們大概開會到一半。
講解：is over (較口語) / finishes (比較正式一點)
第03個例句：
A: How long until this meeting wraps? I've got somewhere to be soon.
B: The boss said it will be another 20 minutes or so.
A: 會議還要多久可以早點結束？我必須趕去一個地方。
B: 老闆說大概二十分鐘左右。
講解：wrap 在這裡的用法是強調會議能否早點結束
第04個例句：
A: How long until we wrap up? I really need to make a phone call.
B: We're almost done. We'll be out soon.
A: 會議還要多久我們可以走人？我真的需要打一通電話。
B: 我們快要好了。我們很快就可以出去了。
講解：we wrap up 我們可以早點走人的意思

拆成太多篇了，這邊有全文
No. 1, he has to be healthy. In the playoffs and this was the healthiest, but
he still wasn’t 100%. Then No. 2 for Jo, is he’s got to make all his players
better in the playoffs and Jo, his numbers are unfair, because he’s really
— if you look at his numbers in the last three years in the playoffs,
compared to his regular season numbers, they’re not very good. But a lot of
that is due — the first year I had him he hurts his knee. The next year, he
hits his face and tears ligaments in his hand, and then this year he has a
knee injury and he was never the same once he came back this year. So health
is No. 1.
Then the second thing is Jo and he has the ability, I stayed on him daily. He
has the ability to make his teammates better and when he does it, if you look
at our games this year when he did that and dominated, hard to go away from
Joel Embiid. It really is. He’s just got to do that on a consistent basis.
Not just on the court, but also off the court. Just be around the guys and
spend time with your guys and let them know that you love them because they
love you. And so I thought that Jo in the three years, you can see the growth
there. I think we forget how young he is. We also forget his first two years
he didn’t play and I’m telling you that sets a tone. Like when you miss two
years and you’re sitting there all the time and you get used to not playing
in games. That sets the tone. Ben Simmons went through the same thing. He
missed the first year and so fighting early on when I first got there was huge
. ‘Jo, you need to play tonight. Jo, you can play tonight’ and now he’s up
in games and so he’s doing that. He’s crossed that barrier. The next one
will be making his teammates better. When he does that, it’s gonna be hard to
stop and I think he will do it. I just think we forget his age and we forget
how we started in this league.
鉛筆不夠健康。我執教的過去三年他一直都帶傷。
帶傷休息太久之後很難找回狀態。
鉛筆需要和隊友相處得更好，幫助他們變得更好。
You can feel it all through the organization and Elton (Brand), when he
brought me in, that’s what he told me like ‘Hey, this is not just about
coaching his team. We’re bringing you in here to change the culture’ and he
meant everywhere and he allowed me to come in and we looked through the whole
organization. I’m talking about trainers, equipment managers, everybody. …
If you’re not on board, if you’re not trying to win and that’s not what you
’re breathing every day. For me, it’s time to go, and I meant that with
everybody in the organization and overall, I thought we were starting to get
it done. You can see the change in the culture, and so I think the growth of
that is there. I think they still have some growth in that department as well.
Alert is the word I’m using and sometimes you can’t worry about that. You
just got to do your job. You got to worry about the basketball part of it and
that’s the reaction to what everything happens, but their culture has
definitely gotten better. I had a big part in that and now the grow from there
, it still has to get better and if that happens, then they have a chance. If
it doesn’t happen, they’re not gonna win. It has to keep growing.
從我到來開始改變了七六人的文化。
你可以看到了球隊文化的改變。
When I look back on that game, because that was the decider, right? Basketball
-wise, we got to get the ball to Joel more, and trust me, we came out in plays
where it should have gone there and it just didn’t arrive there, and so
those are big plays. Now listen, Joel was not having a great game, but neither
was (Jayson) Tatum, and my belief is so that you still go to your guy and you
keep letting him save the day for you, and I thought we went away from that
and then the second part of the fluky part. Tatum, if you remember the big
play, we gambled on a play somewhere, someone gambled, but I can’t remember
who it was. Maybe Maxey. I don’t even know who it was. Went for a steal, didn
’t get it and they gambled on Jayson Tatum and left him wide open, and he
made a corner in front of the Celtic bench. And that was — it takes these
guys but one shot and that was … and now he’s on. And from that point, we
were dead.
戰術角度來說，我們需要給鉛筆更多球。
很多球本應該到他但是沒有傳到。
雖然他打不好但是我們還是應該把球給到王牌，讓他試圖拯救你。
It was challenging, more because we were fighting two things, and not like
visually fighting, it was James is so good at playing one way, and the way I
believe you have to play to win, in some ways, is different because it’s a
lot of giving up the ball, moving the ball, coming back to the ball. I would
have loved to have him younger, when that was easier for him because giving up
the ball and getting back the ball is hard. It’s physical, it’s exhausting.
So, it would have been interesting if I would have had him younger where he
could have done that more. Coming off of dribble handoffs, going downhill. He
didn’t finish as well as he finished because he’s older, and that happens.
So, yeah, at times, to get him to move it and get him to play the way I needed
him to play. I thought the first half of the year, we were the best team in
the game. I thought James was playing perfect basketball. He was the point
guard of the team. He was still scoring, but he was doing more playmaking and
scoring. Then in the second half, he started scoring more, trying to score
more, and I thought we got stagnant at times. I thought we changed.
執教哈登很困難，很難要求他照我的需要的方式打球。
要是他年輕可能更容易達到我的要求。
他專注得分時，我感覺有時候我們的進攻就停滯了。
You want a guy, and I think James did a little bit of that, like James would
speak up, and so you need that—you need you need another alpha in the room.
So if Jo is not doing something to call Jo on ‘Jo, you gotta do this’ and Jo
will listen to that.
需要找一個領袖加入。
一個可以提醒鉛筆「你這件事情沒做好」，然後鉛筆會聽的人。
If I could pick the perfect guy without a name, it would be a big point guard
who could score and the reason is we need a playmaker other than Joel and (
Tyrese) Maxey right now is more of a scorer. He’s a downhill scorer with
speed. The dude brings joy to every coach in the room every day like you would
love Tyrese Maxey just every day being Tyrese Maxey, but when we can free him
up to just go score and you can make a case like a (Manu) Ginobili who at
times was their point with his passing, gave them toughness, was an attacker,
was great off the ball, but that allowed Tony Parker to just go and be free.
Like someone in that category would be the perfect fit.
七六人需要一個能夠得分的大個子控衛，
需要一個除了鉛筆之外能夠創造進攻機會的球員，
像Manu這種，可傳球，打球強硬，有攻擊能力，又擅長無球的，
就是完美選項。
