10月20日，勇士队主教练科尔于训练结束之际，面对众多记者进行了交流。
体育评论员提问：我了解到贵队每年都会如同众多其他队伍一般，组织一场关于博彩知识的讲座，旨在教导队员们何为可取行为，何为禁忌。随着博彩机构的日益增多，这一领域又经历了哪些变化和发展？
科尔强调，自体育界与众多博彩企业携手以来，对于联盟来说，确保球员充分理解相关规则变得尤为紧迫。这种情形下，球员们面临的是一种双重标准：一方面，他们被告知不得参与博彩活动，但另一方面，当他们观看比赛时，却发现DraftKings的广告和博彩盘口分析无处不在，这种对比使得界限变得模糊不清。
The rationale behind the league's initiative to visit each team is that the message to the players is straightforward and unambiguous—they must under no circumstances engage in such behavior. However, the involvement of fans complicates the situation. It's not uncommon for visiting fans to shout at players, especially if they miss a crucial shot or fail to secure a victory, leading to a loss in betting odds, for instance. This atmosphere is far from conducive to the mental well-being of our athletes, yet it persists. As we kick off the new season, the league has demonstrated its effectiveness in ensuring that adequate precautions are in place.
