摘要:
看来热火队跟火箭队的希望要落空了.
虽然老汤跟MR.ANDERSON两个人互看不爽.
但是MR.ANDERSON还是在训练营中"作他该作的事",
也就是认真的训练.
老汤总管已经放弃了要交易MR.ANDERSON
但是现在他也放弃了要买断MR.ANDERSON剩下三年2400万的合约
老汤现在只想等时间到了,有球队会来洽谈交易的事宜
(编按:那不是还要在等个2年吗???)
MR.ANDERSON应该也知道到老汤想的事情吧
在训练营认真自我训练的他
希望老威教练给他一个跟队友平等竞争的机会
----MR.ANDERSON希望他在11/3的开幕战时可以挤身12人名单中.
另外,小休队长确定8场季前热身赛不打了.
老尼克人JOHN STARKS 被聘为资深球迷发展部门的顾问.
Anderson Is Fitting In, for Now
By HOWARD BECK
Published: October 8, 2004
HARLESTON, S.C., Oct. 7 -
The letters across Shandon Anderson's chest still spell Knicks, in the
familiar blend of orange and blue. If there is a scarlet letter "P"
somewhere on the jersey, he is hiding it well.
For a designated pariah, Anderson seems quite at ease.
"For the most part, everything has been normal," Anderson, a veteran
swingman, said Thursday at the College of Charleston, where the Knicks
are holding training camp. "There's been nothing out of the ordinary."
Only a week ago, Isiah Thomas, the Knicks' president of operations, was
ready to ban Anderson from camp. The two butted heads last season, and
Thomas was incensed when Anderson failed to show for a postseason
conversation. Thomas admitted he had tried to trade Anderson and would
continue to do so.
But three days into camp, Anderson is not only present, but humming through
twice-daily practices.
"He's being himself," forward Tim Thomas said. "He's going out, he's playing
hard, practicing hard each and every day. And that's all you can ask from
him. Despite the circumstances, he's not dogging it. So that's a good thing.
We're supportive of him."
The Knicks are unwilling to waive Anderson and swallow the $24 million he
is due over the next three years. Isiah Thomas said a buyout, presumably
for an amount less than that, was not an option.
The Houston Rockets and the Miami Heat have an interest in Anderson if he
becomes a free agent, but Isiah Thomas is waiting for someone to make a
solid trade offer.
Asked whether any team is willing to make a trade, Thomas paused, then
grinned.
"If I was to answer that question honestly," he said, "I would have to
lie to you."
So Anderson remains with the Knicks for now, and his status as a pariah
seems to be fading. Thomas credited him with acting professionally and
indicated that Anderson could potentially remain with the team all season.
"If he conforms to the Knick ways and he acts accordingly, yeah,"
Thomas said. "Thus far, he's conformed. Everything's O.K. if you do what
we're asking you to do. But when you try to do things the way you want to
do them, there are issues with that."
Anderson said he was confident that Coach Lenny Wilkens would give him a
fair shot and that, if he is with the Knicks when they open the season on
Nov. 3, he would be in the rotation. But then, he is not assuming much.
"Let's not look that far ahead," Anderson said, chuckling. "A lot can
happen."
REBOUNDS
It appears Allan Houston will not play in any of the Knicks' eight preseason
games, but Isiah Thomas believes he will be ready by opening night and will
still be capable of scoring 20-plus points a game. "Does he have to for us
to win?'' Thomas said. "No. The days where Allan Houston had to play 50
minutes and score 40 points to be close in a game, that's not how it is
anymore." ...The Knicks made official the appointment of John Starks as an
adviser in alumni relations and fan development.
