对于马刺来说，到目前为止这是一个没有争议的休赛期（至少在解说席之外是这样），但如果说有什么事情引起了人们的关注，那就是一条未经证实的传闻：后卫迪伦·哈珀 (Dylan Harper) 对自己新秀赛季的替补角色感到不满，并将在未来要求获得首发位置。尽管这一谣言源自一个恶搞的 X 账号，且老罗恩·哈珀 (Ron Harper, Sr.) 也指出这是假消息，但它从未完全平息，从而引发了外界的猜测：马刺是否需要开始在交易市场上寻找达龙·福克斯 (De’Aaron Fox)，或者考虑一套由他们两人与斯蒂芬·卡斯尔 (Stephon Castle) 共同组成的三后卫首发阵容。
然而，迪伦本人现在在接受 RG.org 记者 DJ·西迪基 (DJ Siddiqi) 的采访时亲自发声。当被问及下赛季的目标时，他指出，自己唯一的目标（除了个人提升之外）与整个球队的目标一致：从总决赛的失利中吸取教训，并在明年弥补遗憾。当被明确要求确认这是否意味着他可以接受任何角色——无论是首发还是替补——时，他重申自己只是对能够上场打球心存感激，而具体的角色安排并不重要。（换句话说，是的，他完全接受替补角色。）
问：你的第二个赛季即将到来。外界对你寄予厚望。你心中有什么具体的目标吗？无论是数据上的，还是球场上你想提高的具体方面？
哈珀： 没有，老兄。我觉得对我来说，每年最重要的事情就是每天都在进步，向身边的人学习，从自己的经历中吸取教训，并努力不再重复犯同样的错误。但对我而言，这并不完全是个人层面的事。我觉得我们都有一个共同的球队目标，那是我们觉得去年就应该达成的。我觉得这才是唯一关键的事情，也是每个人脑子里唯一在想的事。
问：所以简单来说，团队利益高于任何个人目标。这就是你所想的。
哈珀： 是的，先生。
问：对你来说，你在第一个赛季，也就是新秀赛季是打替补。所以无论你是首发还是替补，对你来说都无所谓，对吧？
哈珀： 是的，我觉得无论如何，我都在 NBA 打球。整个 NBA 只有大约 450 名球员，而我有机会踏上球场，与最顶尖的球员同台竞技。我觉得这些事情和具体的角色安排，归根结底，在宏观层面上，并不会影响我以及我对待每一天的方式。
谈到总决赛，他讨论了球队从那次经历中学到了什么（答案显而易见），以及他对球队未来的看法。
问：你从那次经历中学到的最大收获是什么？显然，你们在那个系列赛的大部分时间里都处于领先。虽然最后功亏一篑，但展望未来，你们能从那个系列赛中吸取什么教训？
哈珀： 我觉得最重要的一点可能是在比赛末尾收割比赛，以及在特定时刻明确知道我们要怎么做。我认为对我们来说，最大的收获是我们积累了一年的经验。我觉得今年对我们而言，是大家作为一支团队在一起的第一年，我觉得我们的未来不可限量。
最后，他谈到了与文班一起打球的感受、文班的领导风格，以及看到文班为了球队选择降薪意味着什么。
问：我想和你聊聊文班。显然，他是一个极其出色的球员，老兄。他在续约时选择接受低于顶薪的合同进行提前续约，这展现了他有多么在乎这支球队。谈谈这意味着什么，并谈谈他在幕后是怎样的一个球员和领袖——也许是球迷们所不了解的一面。
哈珀： 我觉得对于一个 22 岁的人来说，他可能是我身边最优秀的领袖之一。无论是他的言行举止，还是他的成熟度，从头到尾，无论是篮球训练、理疗、力量房还是个人生活，都是如此。我觉得他把自己的生活规划得井井有条，非常适合他，而且我认为他是最真诚的人。当那个消息传出来时，我觉得是的，每个人都很惊讶。但我的意思是，他就是这样的人。
采访中还讨论了其他话题，所以请务必去阅读完整内容。不过，很高兴知道马刺在进入下赛季时，可能不会像某些人所认为的那样面临那么多关于阵容轮换的艰难抉择。哈珀担任首发的机会终会到来，但令人欣慰的是，他已经做好准备，并愿意为了球队的利益接受任何安排给他的角色，展现出了无私和职业的态度，就像任何一个真正的马刺人一样。

Dylan Harper dispels rumor he is unhappy in a bench role
It’s been a controversy-free offseason for the Spurs so far (at least outside the broadcast booth), but if there was anything that raised a few eyebrows, it was the unverified rumor that guard Dylan Harper was unhappy in a bench role during his rookie season and would demand a starting role going forward. Despite the rumor coming from a parody X account and Ron Harper, Sr. pointing out that it was fake, it never completely went away, leading to speculation over if the Spurs either needed to start looking at the trade market for De’Aaron Fox or consider a three-guard starting line-up, featuring those two alongside Stephon Castle.
However, Dylan has now spoken up himself in an interview with DJ Siddiqi of RG.org. When asked about his goals for next season, he noted that his only goal (besides individual improvement) is the same as the entire team’s: to learn from what went wrong in the Finals and make up for it next year. When specifically asked to confirm if that that means he’s fine in any role — starter or bench — he reassured that he’s just grateful to be playing and the logistics don’t matter. (In other words, yes, he’s fine with a bench role.)
Q: Your second season’s coming up here. There are high expectations. Do you have any concrete objectives in your mind? Whether that’s statistical, whether that’s on the court as far as where you want to improve?
Harper: Nah, man. I feel like the biggest thing for me in every year is really just getting better every day, learning from the people around me and learning from my own experiences and just trying not to make the same mistakes over and over again. But for me, it’s not really just anything personal. I feel like we all have that one team goal that we felt like that we should have had last year. I feel like that’s really the only thing on that. That’s the only thing that’s on everyone’s mind.
Q: So simply put, it’s team-based over any sort of individual objectives. That’s what’s on your mind.
**Harper:**Yes, sir.
Q: And it doesn’t matter to you, you were coming off the bench your first season, your rookie season. It doesn’t matter to you whether you’re a starter or whether you’re a bench player, right?
Harper: No, I feel like regardless, I’m in the NBA. There’s only like 450 people in the NBA, and I get a chance to go on the court and play with the best of the best. I feel like those kinds of things and those logistics at the end of the day, in the big scheme of things, it’s not going to affect me and how I approach every day.
Speaking of the Finals, he discussed what the team learned from the experience (the answer is pretty obvious) and how he feels about the team going forward.
Q: What was the biggest thing that you learned from that experience? Obviously, you guys led for a great duration of that series. You came up a little short, but what can you take from that series moving forward?
Harper: I think the biggest thing is probably closing out games, and I think just knowing exactly what we’re gonna do in certain times, I think the biggest thing for us is we got a year under our belt. I think this year for us, the first year we’re all together as a team, and I feel like the sky’s the limit for us.
Finally, he discussed what it’s like playing with Wemby, his leadership style, and what it meant seeing him take a discount for the team.
Q: I want to talk to you about Wemby. Obviously, a heck of a player, man. It shows how much he cares about the team that he tookless money than the max on his extension. Talk about what that means, and talk about what type of player and leader he is behind the scenes — maybe that fans don’t know about.
Harper: I feel like for a 22-year-old, he’s probably one of the best leaders I’ve been around, just the way he carries himself, his maturity, from top to bottom, whether it’s basketball treatment, in the weight room, personal life. I feel like he’s kind of structured his life in a way that has worked for him, and I think he’s the most genuine person ever. When that came out, I feel like yes, it was a surprise to everyone. But I mean, that’s just the type of person he is.
There were other topics of discussion in the interview, so be sure to check out the entire thing, but it’s good to know that the Spurs may not be facing as many line-up decisions as some wanted to believe heading into next season. Harper’s time as a starter will surely come, but it’s reassuring to know he is ready and willing to take on whatever role as asked of him for the betterment of the team, and in an unselfish and professional manner, like any true Spur would.
