Armory to honor America’s service members on Saturday afternoon. 星期六下午，来到首都後，国家队在华盛顿DC国民兵训练中心举行练习赛慰劳 军人。 As part of USA Basketball's Hoops For Troops initiative, a crowd of 3,100 military members and their families attended an open practice as part of the World Basketball Festival, held in partnership with NIKE Inc. 现场约有3100位军人和他们的家人出席这场公开练习赛--由NIKE赞助的世界篮球 嘉年华。 "Its great," said Russell Westbrook. "It’s a great experience to be able to come in and to play in front of the troops. They have done so much for our country and they still do.” 「太棒了！」西河说。「能来到这里，在军队前面打球，这是个很棒的经验。 他们为我们的国家做了许多事，现在仍然持续做着。」 Prior to practice, USA Basketball Women’s National Team members Seimone Augustus, Swin Cash, Maya Moore, Candace Parker and Lindsay Whalen, as well as USA assistant coach Doug Bruno and USA head coach Geno Auriemma, held a clinic for daughters of military members at the same location. 练习赛由女篮球员Seimone Augustus、Swin Cash、Maya Moore、Candace Parker 和Lindsay Whalen，以及美国队助理教练Doug Bruno和美国队总教练 Geno Auriemma，慰劳军人的女性眷属们 As practice wrapped up, the 12 members of the men's national team and the five available women's national team players received a flag from the uniform of a soldier and an Old Guard challenge coin. 练习结束後，12位男篮国家队球员与5位女子国家队球员从穿着制服的军人手中致赠 旗帜和一个纪念币。 “This is a huge event," said Mike Krzyzewksi, USA and Duke University Hall of Fame head coach. "We invited the chairs of the joint chiefs out for dinner last night with our staff, and so we had a great meal and we shared our thanks. I'm very close friends with Marty Dempsey. Even during this past Duke season, he was at one of our home games and afterwards we met with the NBA to try to help orchestrate today. Today has been in the works for a few months, and I thought it was beautifully done by Nike, the NBA, USA Basketball and of course our military. The exchange of the flags from the people who are actually serving our country on a day to day basis. We were talking about last night, and we thought it was the single biggest gesture that they could give us, in support of us. Taking them, accepting them would be in honor of them. Today was a special day." 「这是个了不起的活动，」教练Krzyzewksi说－他是美国国家队和杜克大学的 总教练。「昨晚我们邀请了主席和首长参谋一起共进晚餐。餐点很棒，我们彼 此感谢。我和Marty Dempsey是好朋友。甚至当我在杜克大学执教时，他来看过 一次我们主场的球赛，之後我们在NBA相聚，现在我们彼此协助合作。今天将在 同一个工作小组共事，我认为在Nike、NBA、USA国家队和我们的军队合作下， 这个活动办得很成功。从这群每天为国家辛勤服务的人们手中交换旗帜。我们 昨晚聊关於这些，我们认为这是他们可以给我们的、特别而有意义的手势，表 达他们对我们的支持。拿取并接受旗帜就是向这些军人致敬。今天是个特别的 日子。」 “There’s no greater feeling than performing in front of our soldiers and our troops and stuff like that," said Chris Paul. "Because they go out and protect our freedom day in and day out and the least we can do is come out here, have a little fun and play some ball because when we go to London for the Olympics, this is who we represent. Its not about the last names on the backs of our jerseys, its about that U-S-A on the front.” 「再也没有比在我们的士兵、军队的面前表演更光荣的事了。」CP3说道。「因为 他们每天出外夜以继日保卫我们的自由，我们最少可以做到，来这里打球，为他 们带来一些乐趣。因为当我们前往伦敦打球，这就是我们所代表的。不只是在我 们球衣背後的名字，而且是在前面的U-S-A这三个字。」 "It’s been incredible," chimed in Tyson Chandler. "To play in front of the troops and to see some of the wounded warriors and to get this inspiration before we go over and start this journey, it was just incredible. And it was an honor for us to be able to in front of them.” 「这真是令人难以置信，」拳王附和。「在军队面前打，探望受伤的战士，鼓舞 他们，在我们将要踏上这次的旅程之前。这真的太棒了。能在他们前面，对我们 来说是种荣耀。」 --
