Ainge will not confirm Garnett deal
July 30, 2007 ST. PAUL, MINNESOTA (TICKER) --
The Boston Celtics executive Danny Ainge refuted published reports
that an agreement has been reached to acquire superstar Kevin Garnett,
according to a report in the Pioneer Press on Monday.
Ainge 驳斥了目前台面上谣传交易 KG 的新闻报导。
It was reported earlier Monday that the Celtics would send forward Al
Jefferson, swingman Gerald Green, point guard Sebastian Telfair, the expiring
contract of center Theo Ratliff and at least one future first-round pick to
the Minnesota Timberwolves for one of the league's biggest superstars.
报导说塞尔提克将送 Al Jefferson、Gerald Green、Sebastian Telfair 以及老手
Theo Ratliff、至少一枚第一轮选秀来换取灰狼超级巨星 Kevin Garnett。
But Ainge would not confirm the deal.
然而 Ainge 却不承认这笔交易已经完成。
"(The reports) can speculate all they want," he said to the newspaper. "I can
confirm we are talking, sure. We're in discussions with (Garnett)."
「记者们可以任意的去幻想，我可以证实的就是我们确实有谈，我们与 KG 有过一些讨
论。」
However, Ainge would not talk about the specifics of their negotiations,
opting to remain ambiguous about how close the clubs are to finalizing a
deal.
然而 Ainge 并不想谈有关他们谈论的细节，只表示球队对交易有多接近完成还都模糊不
清。
(老掉牙了，记者都嘛先冲再说，之前 Kobe 也不都被换到公牛了 XD。)
"I'm sure we're one of a few teams that are in discussions with the
Timberwolves," Ainge said.
「我只能确定一件事，那就是我们是一些与灰狼交涉的队伍中其中一队。」
According to the Pioneer Press, McHale had no comment and Garnett's agent,
Andy Miller, said the two sides were "in the midst of talking things
through."
I think that he’s more open to opportunities in general than he was the
first time he heard his name being mentioned in a trade,” Miller told the
Pioneer Press. “At this point, he’s looking at it from a different
perspective.”
根据报导，McHale对这事情还没发表任何言论，而 KG 的经纪人说两队只是还在交
涉的过程中罢了。
「比起第一次听到会被交易，我想他现在比较能接受这种处境了，他现在会用不同的
观点来看待这件事情。」
"Everything that had gone on in the past probably was an awakening for him,”
Miller said. “He’s fiercely loyal, as I’ve said before. He loves the team
and the organization and the state of Minnesota and the fans. But I think
everything that happened over the last two months probably was more of an
awakening that Minnesota is looking to move in a different direction and it’
s time for him to look at his options, as well.”
Miller 附注 :
「原本已经过去的那些事情可能又会再度唤起他的回忆，如同我说过的，他非常的忠诚。
他喜欢这支球队与球团，也喜欢明尼苏达和球迷们。不过过去两个月，看起来球队想走
的方向和他不同，所以我想现在也是他可以自己抉择的时候了。」
The Boston Globe reported that one of the sticking points is the $24 million
player option that Garnett holds for the 2008-09 season. He also has the
right to opt out of his $22 million contract after next season.
Boston Globe 则指出目前卡住的原因是 KG 在下个球季既可以执行大到不行的 24M
合约，也有办法跳脱到自由市场。
Before June's draft, executives Ainge and McHale - good friends from their
playing days in Boston - also engaged in trade talks. But the option on
Garnett's contract, along with his hesitancy to play in Boston, were major
factors in the deal not being completed.
在选秀会前，Ainge 和 McHale 就已经谈论过相关的交易，不过那时候碍於 KG 合约中
的选择权，还有 KG 不想到波士顿的言谈，是那时候交易失败的主因。
现在还是有选择权的问题，至於KG爽不爽到波士顿，还不清楚。
