Jason Kidd won't back up just anybody http://tinyurl.com/6rg9ayy DALLAS – Just to be clear, Jason Kidd doesn’t consider himself to be a backup-caliber point guard at this point of his Hall of Fame career. PODCAST Mavs GM Donnie Nelson gives us an inside look at the team's summer plans as the franchise has financial flexibility for the first time in over a decade. Listen Kidd would just be willing to back up Deron Williams and a “very short” list of other elite point guards. Kidd愿意打替补，但仅限於D-Will和一些"数量非常少"的明星控卫 The lockout-compressed season was rough on the 39-year-old Kidd’s body. He dealt with a variety of nagging injuries while averaging career lows in points (6.2), assists (5.5) and rebounds (4.1). 缩短球季对这个39岁的老将是很艰苦的 他这季受大大小小的伤势所苦，并打出了生涯新低 But Kidd, whose numbers ticked upward to 11.5 points, 6.1 rebounds and 6.0 assists during the Mavs’ brief playoff sprint, is confident he can help a team next season. He’s entering free agency looking for a good fit and a decent deal with a contender, not a bench to ride. 但季後赛回春的Kidd还是很有信心能够帮忙球队获胜...无论是哪一个球队。 “I’m going campaigning for Most Improved Player next year,” Kidd deadpanned. “You guys are laughing. I’m serious.” "我下一季要角逐最佳进步奖！" "你们都在笑，但我是认真的" Kidd is completely serious in his belief that he can still contribute to a contender. If that means serving as a backup to an All-Star, Kidd said his ego can handle it. However, Kidd admits that it would be a major adjustment considering his competitive fire. 然而，Kidd也不讳言考虑到他目前的能力，他可能会需要很大的调整。 “I would probably have to talk to Don Kalkstein a lot,” Kidd said, referring to the Mavs’ sports psychologist. “He helped me get the sportsmanship award, so he can definitely handle that job.” "我会跟Don Kalkstein谈谈" (小牛的运动心理学家) "他帮助我拿到最佳运动员精神奖，我想他在这方面也可以帮助我" On a serious note, Kidd said: “If I was young, it would probably be hard. But understanding and making adjustments, as a professional, you have to accept your role, and that's what I've done as I've gotten older, and so if that means coming off the bench, then I can handle that. That's just another challenge, and that's the way I would look at it.” "如果我还年轻，这样的调整可能很困难。但身为一个职业球员，你必须接受你的角色并 做调整。我了解我年纪大了，可能就意味着从板凳出发。" The challenge for the Mavs’ front office is recruiting a point guard good enough for Kidd to back up. 对小牛队来说，挑战可能是找到一个足够好的，让Kidd愿意成为他替补的控卫。 --
