NBA球隊罷賽恐陷入停擺

The Milwaukee Bucks staged an unprecedented boycott of the NBA playoffs on Wednesday, forcing the league to postpone three games following outrage over the latest shooting of an unarmed black man by US police.

由於一名手無寸鐵的黑人男子被警方槍擊引發憤怒，8月26日，密爾沃基雄鹿隊發起了一場史無前例的抵制美國職業籃球協會（NBA）季後賽的活動，導致聯盟的三場比賽被迫推遲。

The postponements marked a dramatic escalation in the NBA's fight for racial equality, which has swept through the league in the months since the killing of African-American George Floyd, by police in Minneapolis in May.

這標誌着NBA爭取種族平等的鬥爭急劇升級。今年5月，非洲裔美國人喬治·弗洛伊德在明尼阿波利斯因警方暴力執法而死，此後數月，種族平等抗爭在聯盟中蔓延。

A wave of anger rippled across the NBA after Sunday's shooting of Jacob Blake, a 29-year-old black man, in the Bucks' home state on Sunday.

8月23日，在雄鹿隊所在的威斯康辛州，29歲的黑人雅克布·布萊克被警方槍擊，在NBA引發憤怒浪潮。

Blake was shot seven times in the back by police in Kenosha as he attempted to get into a car containing his three children.

布萊克試圖進入載有自己三個孩子的汽車時，被基諾沙市警察從背後連射7槍。

Reports surfaced that some other NBA teams, including the Boston Celtics and the Toronto Raptors, were having serious discussions about joining the boycott.

有媒體報道稱，包括波士頓凱爾特人隊和多倫多猛龍隊在內的一些其他球隊正在嚴肅探討是否要加入這一罷賽行動。
