And as the front office leans on them for their on-the-court knowledge, the two will also lean on Cuban and Nelson as they begin their post-playing careers. 小牛将会器重两位球员的场上知识，帮助他们展开他们球员职业後的生涯 During the pursuit of All-Star guard Deron Williams in free agency Finley took part in making the Mavs’ pitch. He then joined the Mavs’ summer squad in Las Vegas to work with rookies Jared Cunningham, Bernard James and Jae Crowder as they began their professional careers. 在追求DWill的过程中Finley也曾参一咖，另外在拉斯维加斯的夏季联盟中协助 小牛三位新秀Jared Cunningham, Bernard James and Jae Crowder　 Finley spent 8 ½ of his 15 NBA seasons in Dallas, before winning the 2007 NBA championship with the San Antonio Spurs. And according to Mavs owner Mark Cuban, Finley was a lead vocalist in persuading combo guard O.J. Mayo to Big D when he hit the free-agent market. Finley2007年在马刺队拿到nba冠军前，长达十五年的球员生涯有八个半球季都待在小牛。 Cuban表示，成功追求O.J. Mayo的主要功臣就是Finley “The assistant to the assistant to the assistant general manger and player development coach,” Cuban joked when describing Finley’s role on ESPN 103.3 FM’s the Ben and Skin Show last week. Cuban在电台上戏称Finley的职称为 "助理助理助理GM兼球员发展教练" He added: “I’ve always told Fin, just like I mentioned with JET [Jason Terry], you can always come back. Fin called me up last year and said, ‘ Look, when my days are done, would you consider having me come back and allow me to work with the Mavs and start that part of my career?’ And I said, ‘ Definitely.’ And so, the door was open. … I told him he could come in and work with Donnie, work with me, work with whatever part of the organization he wants to, and that’s what he’s done. In reality, it was a great move on our part, because he’s been really good working with the rookies so far and with O.J., working within the organization and working in the draft room. So, he’s been a great add for us.” 他补充：我总是跟JET还有Finley说，小牛随时欢迎你们回来。去年Fin抠我，电话里他 说＂欸！我再也跑不动之後，你还愿意让我回达拉斯重新开始另一段生涯吗？＂我告诉 他＂那当然！＂事情就是这样，我通知他可以来跟Donnie还有我一起工作，想参与球队 任何一个层面的工作都ok，他干的好事你也看到了。在现实来讲，他的确对我们球队 有不错的贡献，不只在新秀训练抑或是OJ的招募的工作方面，还有在球队里的运作以及 选秀操作这些层面也做得不错。总而言之，这对我们来说是一步好棋。 Meanwhile, Najera was taking his own path towards life after basketball, recently retiring before being named the head coach of the Mavericks’ Development League affiliate, the Texas Legends. 在此同时，Najera则有另外一条新的人生道路，被任命为小牛发展联盟球队－－德州传 奇队的总教头。 Najera spent his first four seasons in the league wearing a Mavericks uniform. He then returned for a short stint during the 2009-10 campaign, before finishing up his 12-year career with two seasons in Charlotte. Najera曾为四年的小牛人。　之後在09-10球季短暂返回小牛一年，最终在夏洛特 待了两季并从此退休。 In addition to coaching and taking part ownership of the Legends, Najera will also serve as an assistant to Nelson, working internally in all basketball-related activities as Nelson’s “right hand.” 除了教练职位及掌握部分传奇队所有权外，Najera还是Nelson的左右手，负责球队国 际事务。 "This is a dream come true," Najera said last week in an interview with the Associated Press. "I have long wondered what would be in store for me when I hung up the basketball playing shoes, and this is the perfect opportunity for my post-playing career. The chance to develop as a coach, while also assisting Mark and Donnie with the Mavs, is an ideal situation." ＂这简直是美梦成真＂Najera在接受访问时如此道＂我一直在想说我高挂球鞋後还能干 些什麽，这是一个绝佳的契机，有机会能变成一位教练，同时帮助Mark和Donnie使得小 牛队变得更好＂ "I have the utmost respect for Eddie," Nelson added. "The work ethic he exhibited as a player and his knowledge of the NBA game will serve him well in his role as head coach of the Legends. Whether coaching a rookie or an NBA veteran, Coach Najera will have valuable insight for all of our players. I am equally excited to begin working with Eddie in a front-office capacity with the Mavericks as he learns the management side of the game. I am proud to be able to call Eddie an ownership partner with the Legends." "我相当敬佩Eddie(Najera)" Nelson补充"他的职业道德以及对於赛场上的经验将会对成 为教练後的他有莫大帮助。无论是教导菜鸟或是老将，Najera教练都会针对各个球员提 供价值不斐的见解。在Najera学习球赛的管理面之时，我对於要和他一起在这方面工作 感到兴奋。我对於宣布Najera在传奇队的掌控权感到非常骄傲" Now, both Finley and Najera return to the Mavs looking to reach the same feat the organization accomplished in the 2010-11 season by helping to bring an NBA title back to Dallas. 现在Finley 和 Najera 回到了小牛，准备帮助小牛重现在2010-11球季所达成的 荣耀－－NBA总冠军。 －－－－－－－－－－－－ KOBEDIRK自行翻译 转载请注明唷 KOBEDIRK:转录至看板 NBA 08/29 02:31 ※ 编辑: KOBEDIRK 来自: 61.62.37.121 (08/29 02:47)
