If there is a No. 1 contender to challenge the favorite, Mark Jackson,
for the Knicks’ coaching vacancy, it may be the widely respected Tom
Thibodeau, who, like Jackson, is also a Jeff Van Gundy disciple. And Thibodeau,
who has more than a decade of experience as an NBA assistant coach, doesn’t
need Van Gundy to campaign for him on national television.
如果除了受欢迎的Jackson之外,有任何人可以跟他一起竞争尼克教练的空位,那应该就是
被大家所尊敬的Thibodeau了,他们两人都曾是Jeff Van Gundy底下的学生。而Thibodeau
担任NBA助理教练已有超过10年的经验,并不需要恩师在电视上为他竞选。
Thibodeau, the associate head coach of the Boston Celtics who served on
Van Gundy’s staff in New York and Houston, was initially thought to be
someone who might not be available for an interview until after the playoffs.
But Sunday, Doc Rivers said he would allow his assistants to interview for
available jobs during the playoffs. Rivers, however, won’t allow one of his
coaches to be named a head coach until after the Celtics’ season is over.
Thibodeau is signed only for this season.
Thibodeau是赛尔提克队的副总教练,过去在纽约和休士顿时是Van Gundy的助理,大家原
本以为直到季後赛结束之前他应该都不能接受其他队的面试。但河流大在星期天时说,他
会让他的助理在季後赛当中去面试其他有机会的工作,不过在超赛放暑假之前,他不会让
他的教练们跑去其他队当总教练。Thibodeau只跟赛尔提克签约一季。
This news prompted Knicks president Donnie Walsh to go ahead and make a
formal request to meet with Thibodeau. If the top-seeded Celtics sweep the
Atlanta Hawks in their first-round series, it could leave some time before
the second round for Thibodeau and Walsh to meet.
这个消息让尼克队的老板Walsh开始积极地向Thibodeau提出正式会面的要求。如果赛尔提
克第一轮横扫了老鹰,这样第二轮比赛开始之前他们两人就有好些时间可以谈。
"Normally, when teams are in the playoffs, teams aren’t interested to do
that," Walsh said. "So I haven’t really pushed that, but I will, because it
seems there is an intimation that they would do that."
Walsh won’t be alone. Chicago Bulls executive vice president John Paxson
also wants to bring in Thibodeau, a noted defensive specialist, to discuss
the opening there. Former Indiana Pacers coach Rick Carlisle is believed to
have the inside track for the job, but Paxson has had a deep respect for
Thibodeau since he brought him in to interview for an assistant position in
2003.
「通常进入季後赛的球队都不会想这麽做,」Walsh说:「所以我一直没有很积极,不过
现在就不一样了,因为他们似乎有意要这麽做。」而且不只Walsh,公牛队的副执行长
Paxson也想跟Thibodeau这个防守专家讨论他们所提供的空缺。前溜马队的教练Carlisle
本来是被属意接这个空缺的,不过Paxson一直很尊敬这位他在2003年带进来面试助理职位
的Thibodeau。
Herb Williams also will get an interview, Walsh said. As Newsday first
reported Monday, Williams met with Walsh to discuss his future with the
franchise and Walsh asked the longtime Knicks assistant if he wanted to be a
candidate as the head coach.
"And he said he did," Walsh said, "so we’ll continue this."
尼克老板Walsh 说Williams也会接受面试。星期一的新闻报导指出,Williams已经和
Walsh会面与决策团讨论他的未来,如果他之後想被选为总教练,Walsh要求他先担任尼克
队的长期助教。
「而且他说他想,」Walsh说:「所以我们会继续进行。」
(以下跟超赛没关系,就不翻了)
The idealistic scenario that had Van Gundy playing the role of Billy Martin
was quickly put to rest when the former Knicks coach told Walsh on Tuesday
that he did not wish to be considered for the job.
Walsh said Van Gundy cited "his own personal reasons" for the decision to not
explore a second tour as Knicks coach.
"I thought that, if he was coaching, that he’s certainly a guy we should
talk to," Walsh said Tuesday in a conference call with reporters. "But he let
me know that, for his own reasons, he doesn’t think he’ll be coaching for a
while, so that’s where it is."
Isiah no longer full-time. Walsh didn’t say the reassigned Isiah Thomas was
forbidden to have contact with the players next season, but it certainly
sounded as if Thomas’ new role involves being completely invisible. "He’s
not coming in every day like he used to," Walsh said, "but he is there as a
resource for me."
During an interview on ESPN Radio, Walsh said Thomas is "not going to be here
on a full-time basis anymore. I’ll be calling the shots, I’m in charge of
the franchise. It’s my responsibility where it was his."
...希望Thibodeau留下来阿.....
