Zydrunas Ilgauskas' return to Cleveland thrills Anderson Varejao: Cavaliers Insider By Mary Schmitt Boyer, The Plain Dealer March 24, 2010, 1:14AM CLEVELAND, Ohio -- No one was happier to see Zydrunas Ilgauskas on Tuesday than Anderson Varejao. 没有人比Varejao对大Z回家更开心了。 Grinning from ear to ear, Varejao bounded over to the mob of reporters at Cleveland Clinic Courts, who asked if he was excited to have Ilgauskas back. 当被访问到对大Z归来是否感到兴奋时，Varejao开心地露出笑容。 "Yes, I am," Varejao said. "It was good to see him today. He didn't practice with us today. But he has been part of this team for a long time, and it was great to have him back. "是啊，"大V说。"很高兴今天看到他，他今天虽然没和我们一起练球，但他已经和我们 相处有一段时间，他能回来真是太棒了。" "It was like when I go back home and see my mom and my dad. It was great to see him this morning." "这感觉就好像是你回家看到爸妈，今天早上见到他的感觉实在太棒了。" Ilgauskas and Varejao have been close since the veteran center took the young power forward under his wing when Varejao arrived as a 22-year-old rookie from Brazil via Spain in fall 2004. 大Z从大V来到骑士就对这当年才22岁来自巴西的年轻人照顾有佳。 "Z was great to me," Varejao said. "When I got here, I didn't speak any English. When we went to Columbus for the preseason, he used to order my food. He used to take me out to dinner and stuff like that. He took me basically as his son. He was great to me. All I can say is, 'Thank you, thank you' to him all the time." "大Z对我真得很好，"Varejao说。"当我刚到这里时，一点英文都不会说。我们去 Columbus做季前训练时，他总是帮我点菜，总是带我出去吃晚餐还有其他活动。他把我当 他孩子一样照顾，他对我真得很好，我只能一直对他说 "谢谢，谢谢"。" It was quite a turnaround for Ilgauskas, who didn't speak any English when he arrived as a 21-year-old rookie from Lithuania in spring 1996. 就像大Z的翻版一样，1996年时21岁的大Z刚从立陶宛来到骑士时也完全不会说英文。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jackson cut: To make room for Ilgauskas on the roster, the Cavs released second-year forward Darnell Jackson. 为了清出空间，骑士释出二年级生Darnell Jackson。 "Darnell is a good player who works hard, a good kid, a man, and we'll miss having him around," Cavs General Manager Danny Ferry said. "He was great in practice. "Darnell练球很认真，是个好人，我们都会想他，"骑士GM Danny Ferry说。"他很棒。" "Hopefully, he can get to somewhere where he has an opportunity to play. I think that's important for the next step of his career. Had we kept him here, the mind-set was he was going to be on the inactive list. That wasn't necessarily good for him. It wasn't good for us. Ultimately, that was a big part of the decision." "希望他能找到让他有机会发挥的地方，我认为这对他来说是生涯最重要的下一步，如果 我们留下他，他是没机会上场的，这对他来说不是好事，对我们也不好，这是我们做此 决定的原因。" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Change is good: Cavs coach Mike Brown has had to make numerous changes in his rotation this season, and the return of Ilgauskas forces another one. There will be yet another when Shaquille O'Neal returns from thumb surgery in a month or so. 教练Mike Brown本季已经尝试了许多不同的阵容，大Z的归来将伴随更多的尝试，当然下 个月大欧回来後一样有尝试要做。 For now, it looks as if Brown may elect to keep Ilgauskas coming off the bench as he has for most of this season. 目前为止，Brown可能会选择让大Z从板凳上出发，就和本季之前一样。 "A lot of it's just going to be on gut feel," Brown said. "I have written down on paper some different lineups and rotations. Sometime before the game [tonight in New Orleans] I'll have a feeling what I'm going to go with, and that's what I'll do. "我有很多初步想法，"Brown说。"我把这些阵容的变化都写了下来，有些我打算在今天 对黄蜂的比赛中就来试试看。" "You've got to give all the guys in the locker room credit because we have had a lot of changes this year, and I've thrown a lot of different guys in the mix at a lot of different times and guys have seemed to respond well. "你要让球员们感到自己的重要性，我们今年的阵容有很大的变动，我已经尝试过让不同 球员在场上，而他们的表现也相当不错。" "That's what's a positive about this team. Yes, there's depth. Yes, there's versatility. But when you do go through change, guys react well to it and keep themselves ready." "这就是我们球队的优点，我们确实有深度，有活力，但重要的是他们很能适应阵容的变 化并且随时做好准备。" --
