北京时间4月17日，美国男篮确定了出征巴黎奥运会的12人大名单，其中76人当家球星，拥有法国国籍的喀麦隆裔球员恩比德入选。
而在今日，欧洲媒体Eurohoops曝光了恩比德2021年致法国总统马克龙的一封私人信件。恩比德在信中表示：“在与法国篮协讨论后，我已经做出了选择。我希望采取措施获得法国国籍，从而能够入选法国队。因此，我不希望为任何其他国家队效力。我从来没有穿过任何国家队的球衣。我非常荣幸能加入法国队参加接下来的重大国际比赛，首先是2024年奥运会和残奥会。”
这封信的内容一经披露便引起了轩然大波，球迷们纷纷表示：说一套做一套。
[1]“他先是欺骗了喀麦隆，现在又欺骗了法国？76人最好小心点。”
First he snaked Cameroon and now he’s snaking France? The sixers better watch out
[-]“他已经为76人效力十年了，从来没有申请过交易。”
He’s been with the sixers for a decade and hasn’t once requested a trade
[--]“尽管他很有天赋，但由于他的健康状况，让他留在76人总是有很大的风险。”
As talented as he is, it's always a HUGE risk having him on your team bc of his health
[4]“恩比德看到詹姆斯和库里都为美国效力，于是做了一个最艰难的决定。”
Embiid seen LeBron and Steph were playing for Team USA and made a toughest decision
[-]“错，格兰特-希尔说他先去找的恩比德然后再去找其他人。”
Wrong, Grant Hill said he came to Joel first then went to the others.
[--]"他只是想找个理由黑KD，哈哈。“
He just wanted a reason to slander KD lol
[7]”他为美国出战这事让人感觉不太对劲。“
It doesn’t even feel right with him on team USA lowkey
[-]”我当然会愿意让他加入美国队，他会帮助我们赢得胜利，但感觉有点奇怪🤣。“
I’ll obviously take him on team USA he’ll help us win but just feels a little odd 🤣
[--]”当奥拉朱旺来自尼日利亚却为美国队效力时，我并不觉得奇怪。当凯里-欧文出生在澳大利亚却为美国队效力时，我也不觉得奇怪。不，这只是一些球迷黑恩比德罢了……“
Didn’t feel odd when Hakeem Olajuwon played for USA while being form Nigeria. Wasn’t odd when Kyrie Irving did too despite being born in Australia. Nah, this is simply a hate boner some NBA fans have for Embiid…
[10]”为了加入另一个国家而背叛自己的祖国是令人厌恶的。“
Backstabbing your home country to join another is disgusting
[-]”冷静一下，他甚至不是法国人
他出生于喀麦隆。“
Calm down, he isn't even from France
He was born in Cameroon
[--]”所以他背叛了喀麦隆，加入了法国，又背叛了法国。“
So he backstabbed Cameroon, joined France, backstabbed France
[13]”法国篮协想置恩比德于危险的境地，只有他们才能泄露这一消息。“
The French federation throwing Embiid under the bus only they could leak this
[-]”是恩比德把自己置于到那种境地的，你不能只是为了加入另一支国家队就写这样的信来获得公民身份。如果是喀麦隆，没有人会在意，但他真的效仿杜兰特备受嘲讽的加入美国奥运队，他毫无道德/灵魂。“
embiid threw himself in that situation You cannot write such a letter to get ez accomdation for citizenship just to join another team. If it was Cameroun no one would actually care ,but he really is pulling a Durant move joining a goated USA team for olympics, he has 0 ethic/soul
[--]”这只是为了他自己和他的事业，（当你这样时）没什么是你不会做的。“
was just looking out for himself and his career, nothing you wouldn’t do
[16]”是的，我不喜欢他这样做，也不喜欢他加入美国队。“
Yes I’m not a fan of him doing that or being on this USA team.
[-]”笑死我了，你认为他为他一生大部分时间生活的国家效力是件坏事，但他却应该为殖民他祖国、与他的生活毫无关系的国家效力？“
Lmao you think it’s bad for him to play for the country he spent the majority of his life in, but he should play for the country that colonized his home country and has zero ties to his life？
[--]”这不又回到了原来的帖子和那封信吗。他为什么要加入法国队？四处寻找球队加入看起来很糟糕。
Guess it goes back to the original post and the letter. Why was he trying to join the French team? Bad look to be shopping around for a team.“
[19]”所以他还不能改变自己的主意了？那是三年前的事了，我怀疑那是他自己写的，他和我们所有人一样，都想掌握自己的生活。还有，那是私人谈话，把私人的东西公开来让别人难堪是很无耻的。他没有做错任何事。“
So he isn’t allowed to change his mind? That was 3 years ago, I doubt he personally wrote that, he was playing his cards like all of us would. Also, that’s a private convo, it’s lame when people turn private stuff public to make someone look bad. He didn’t do anything wrong.
[-]”这是为国家效力。这不应该是一个商业决定。这应该是内心的事情和归属感。太可耻了！“
This is playing for a national team. It’s not supposed be a business decision. It’s supposed to be heart thing and belonging. So shameful!
