Knicks Players Promise to ‘Figure It Out’ GREENBURGH, N.Y. — In their final defensive stand of the season, Carmelo Anthony and Amar’e Stoudemire planted their feet and swatted away conventional wisdom — namely, the belief that they cannot thrive together. The collected evidence against them is damning. The Knicks were ousted Wednesday in the first round of the playoffs by the Miami Heat, who dispatched them in five games. They were swept in the first round last spring by the Boston Celtics. Fifteen months after the blockbuster trade that brought Anthony to New York and united him with Stoudemire, the Knicks are still in search of greatness, or even consistency. They are 31-40 when both stars play, including a 1-7 record in the postseason. 甜瓜来到纽约已经15个月了，尼克也给他配上了阿骂，但看上去，他们还在 寻找舒服的打球方式。当两位球星同时出场时，他们的战绩为31胜40负，在 季後赛为1胜7负。 So the doubts persist. 所以，怀疑者仍在。 “I get tired of hearing that, man,” Anthony said Thursday, when the Knicks conducted their annual postseason exit interviews. “I get tired of hearing about, Can it work? Will it work? We’re here to play basketball. When we win, it works. When we lose, it don’t work.” 「我已经厌倦了这些说法。」甜瓜说，「我厌倦了听到『这是否能奏效』， 「这是否能正常运转』。我们是来打篮球的，当我们赢球了，这就奏效了； 当输球了，就没有奏效。」 Anthony insisted: “We’ll figure it out. I don’t really think it’s something that’s that difficult to figure out.” 甜瓜坚持道，「我们会解决的，我真不认为这是什麽难事。」 The Knicks, who went 36-30 in this compressed season, are headed for a busy and challenging off-season. They are already moving to re-sign Coach Mike Woodson, who compiled an 18-6 regular-season record after replacing Mike D’Antoni. Woodson has the enthusiastic support of his stars. A deal could be completed by next week. The Knicks also seem committed to re-signing Jeremy Lin, their young point guard sensation, who will be a restricted free agent. Woodson practically guaranteed it. “Will he back next year? Absolutely,” Woodson said. “He’s a big part of our ball club.” 「林书豪是我们球队重要的组成部分，他回来是当然的。」武僧说 Woodson was less definitive about Lin returning as a starter, saying, “Only time will tell.” 「但他是否还能先发？时间会给出答案。」武僧说 Lin, who revived the Knicks’ season in February and became an international star, said he wanted to return to the team that gave him his N.B.A. break. “I think it’d be great if I could come back,” Lin said, “but crazy things happen.” 林书豪在二月份爆发，成为一名国际球星，他表示想要回到给他爆发机会的 球队。他说：「我认为，如果能够回来，这将会是很好。但是，总有疯狂的 事情发生。」 The Knicks will have to use their midlevel exception, worth $5 million, to retain Lin (salary-cap rules will prevent rivals from offering more). Yet once they do, the Knicks will have little flexibility to sign players for anything more than the minimum. And they are almost certain to encounter a new rule that effectively imposes a hard payroll cap at $74 million. Salary-cap constraints could prevent the Knicks from retaining their other top free agents, most notably Landry Fields, Steve Novak and J. R. Smith (if he opts out of his contract). Fields has the best chance of staying, as a restricted free agent with “ Early Bird Rights.” Smith is widely expected to opt out of his $2.5 million deal, although he said he is undecided. The Knicks will be unable to match any richer offers. Then there is Novak, who is heading for his first big payday after leading the league in 3-point shooting. Novak is unrestricted, with no Bird rights. Assuming the Knicks use the midlevel exception for Lin, they will be left only with the biannual exception, worth $1.96 million, which might not be enough. “All I know is how much I’ve enjoyed playing here and how much I would love to be back,” said Novak, a fan favorite. Novak表达了留下了的意愿，「我所知道的是，我在这里打球很享受，我很希望 能够回来。」Novak说。 The various cap restrictions will make it nearly impossible to sign an impact player, such as Steve Nash or Jason Kidd, unless he accepts a minimum salary. Or the Knicks would have to cut loose Lin, to keep their midlevel exception. As much as any personnel move, the need to blend the talents of Anthony and Stoudemire will dominate the Knicks’ agenda in the months to come. They are the franchise’s two highest-paid players — earning a combined $39.4 million next season — and their two best scorers. They are under contract for three more seasons, so the Knicks’ championship hopes are dependent on their partnership blossoming. “It definitely can work,” said Stoudemire, who contends the Knicks simply need time and stability. Indeed, the Knicks have had little of either commodity since Anthony and Stoudemire became teammates. 「这当然能奏效。」阿骂表示尼克需要时间来磨合。 「问题只是我们没能打出稳定的一个赛季。」阿骂说「我们不能将责任都指向 我和甜瓜没有共存，因为这是一个不太稳定的赛季。这只是时间问题。」 原文新闻： http://ppt.cc/bMXt 翻译来源： http://sports.163.com/12/0511/12/817OKPM700051CA1.html http://sports.163.com/12/0511/08/8177G5VJ00051CA1.html ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 另外这是尼克宣布这赛季结束的发布会影片连结： 武僧 http://knicksnow.com/videos/1418/season-recap-woodson 甜瓜 http://knicksnow.com/videos/1419/season-recap-melo 阿骂 http://knicksnow.com/videos/1421/season-recap-stat 拳王 http://knicksnow.com/videos/1420/season-recap-chandler 书豪 http://knicksnow.com/videos/1422/season-recap-lin 此外看到的相关新闻 关於JR的 http://sports.163.com/12/0511/12/817MDIIV00051CA1.html 只是没看到相关的外絮新闻，所以就没贴了。 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 另外面对武僧对瓜身材的问题 瓜有点不耐烦的回应说 "I think you guys looked at that a little bit too much, overanalyzed that," he said. "We all can come back in better shape, better condition. "I'm not going against what coach Woodson said. But I felt like I was in phenomenal shape, especially coming down the stretch, late March, April, the whole month of April, even coming down to the playoffs." 「我想你们这些家伙想得有点多了，有点小题大做了。」甜瓜说道，「(明年)我们 都可以带着更好的身体状况和状态回来。」 「我并不是想冒犯伍德森教练所说的，但是我感觉我的状态非常好，特别是一路下 来，从三月下旬，四月，整个四月份，哪怕是在季後赛中。」 原文新闻： http://ppt.cc/R7Q4 翻译来源： http://nba.hupu.com/news/201205/79609.html -- ∥ ◣ =◥"◥’． ∵ ◆∥ ●/ \● ●23︽ SS ∕0S ＜９＞ ∥ Ι﹨◤ ◥ ＿ ◤ ◥ ∥ ８ ◤︽21 ◢◤\ ◣ /●\ ● ● ∥ ●╱ ∥◤●◣ ﹍◣∥◤￣╲∥＜╱∥◤￣╲ ▼‵､λ﹀▼ ﹨● ●\●∥◆◇ ● ∥＜９ ∥∥◣∥ ●/ ∥╱ ∥◣● ─-.╳ ︶- ● 44 ● <２ 17∥ ╲７>∥ ∥∥ ∥ 16 ∥ ╲ <20◥∥▲ ρ\ `, ▲ ∞ <85 ∥ ∥∥ /| ∥ ∥ ∥∥ ∥◣∥╱∥ ╲╲/|◢∥ ◥ | ◢ ∥ ∥ |/ --
