http://www.sacbee.com/2010/07/12/2883609/kings-had-their-eye-on-sloan-for.html Donald Sloan knew the Kings liked his game after they worked him out twice before last month's NBA draft. 在经过两次选前测试後，Sloan知道国王喜欢他。 Though he had been promised nothing, the 6-foot-3 guard from Texas A&M expected to be drafted by the Kings in the second round. 虽然球队没有给他承诺 但是Sloan认为国王第二轮应该会挑走他。 Those plans ended when Hassan Whiteside fell out of the first round and the Kings used their second-round pick to draft the 7-footer from Marshall. 但是这个期待很快就被终结，因为国王在第二轮等到天下掉下来的礼物 Hassan Whiteside。 But after watching Whiteside become a King, Sloan received a call from the team. Sloan说国王选了Whiteside後，马上给了他一通电话。 "After they took Hassan, they called immediately and said, 'Hey we didn't think Hassan was going to slip this far,' " Sloan said. " 'We still want you. We still like everything you've done, and if no one else takes you, you're our guy. We're going to bring you in.' " Sloan：「当他们选了Hassan後，他们马上打了一通电话给我，然後说：『 抱歉我们不知道Hassan会掉到这里来，我们仍然需要你，我们仍然喜欢你所 作的，如果接下来没有人拿走你，你会是我们的人。」 The Kings held true to their word, signing Sloan to a one-year free-agent contract before he joined their NBA Summer League team. 国王实现了承诺，给了Sloan一份合约，在夏季联盟还没开打前。 Sloan, who averaged 17.8 points for the Aggies last season, describes himself as "very attack-oriented" and said he prefers to set up his teammates on offense. Sloan他去年在Aggies打球，可以每场攻下17.8分 他形容自己是个攻击倾向的球员，并且能爲队友带来进攻上的火力支援。 The Kings need depth in the backcourt, which gives Sloan a chance to make an impression in training camp. 国王需要在後场上作补强，所以这给了Sloan在训练营好好表现自己的机会 Sloan heard from the Kings more than once on draft night. He said Portland (34th pick) and the Los Angeles Lakers (43rd) were options, but when they passed, the Kings called – right after the Lakers drafted Devin Ebanks at No. 43. Sloan说国王一直在选秀夜call他电话 当时Portland((34th pick)跟黑湖(43rd)都有可能偷走他 但是当这些球队没有预期选他过後 Sloan又接到了来自国王的电话 就在湖人跳过他的那一刻。 "A lot of teams expressed interest but, at the same time, nobody like Sacramento," Sloan said. Sloan：「很多队都想要我，但是国王最积极。」 Sloan played point and shooting guard at Texas A&M and will run the point for the Kings in summer league. 他将在夏季联盟担任国王的主力控球。 Kings summer league coach Mario Elie would like Sloan to be more vocal on the floor. 夏季联盟执教Mario Elie希望Sloan能够多说一点话。 "He's a quiet, reserved guy," Elie said. "But in order to run the point guard position in the NBA, you've got to make sure you communicate with your teammates and get them in the right position." 「他是很安静，很受教的球员。」 Elie说 「但是在NBA打控球後卫，你需要与队友多加沟通才能确定他们跑到你要的位置。」 == Kidding Cousins – Elie has praised the play of Kings first-round draft choice DeMarcus Cousins more than once. Elie称赞表弟不止一次。 But that doesn't make the rookie center immune from a little ribbing. 但是这不表示表弟不能被取笑。 Elie has reminded Cousins he'll face Greg Monroe today when the Kings open summer league play in Las Vegas against Detroit. Elie提醒表弟今晚要面对的是Greg Monroe。 Monroe, selected two spots after Cousins at No. 7, was a player some analysts and experts thought the Kings should take instead of Cousins. Monroe可是当初一些专家认为国王应该跳过表弟选择的人啊。 Elie also wants to see how Cousins deals with adversity. Elie想看表弟如何面对困境。 "He thinks he gets fouled every play," Elie said. "And I said: 'No, DeMarcus, you don't get fouled every play. Wait until (Monday).' " 「他觉得他每天都要一直被犯规，」 Elie说 「我跟他说：『表弟，等到比赛开始你就不会一直被犯规了。』」 Elie wondered if summer league officials might be quick with their whistles and call a technical foul on Cousins if he becomes too vocal. 因为Elie认为表弟这样抱怨下去很快就会领个T下场休息了。 "It'll be interesting how he responds if he gets a 'T'," Elie said. Elie:「人家真的很想看看表弟领T的样子嘛!」 == Rotation – Elie said he hadn't decided on a starting lineup for today's game. Elie说他还没有决定今晚的轮替顺序。 He did say he would probably rotate, giving Donté Greene and Omri Casspi starts. 他说他可能会给小绿跟小卡一起先发。 Greene will probably play a lot today with Casspi playing about 15 minutes, Elie said, with Casspi playing more minutes Tuesday. 今天小绿可能会比Casspi多打一点，Casspi今天大概只上15分钟 但是小卡在星期二会有多点时间。 "It's not a big thing," Elie said. "Our main guys will get most of the time – Cousins, Whiteside, Donté and Omri. That's our real focus – developing our guys while watching other players." Elie说「这不重要啦，我们主要会让表弟，白边，小绿跟小卡这四只多打一些 这四只我们的主力培养目标，然後顺便看看其他球员。」 --
