Soon after, Beilein said he started to contact his players individually to clarify his words and meaning. 星期三的时候总管Koby Altman知道了这场会议後的骚动後就去找了Beilein，想澄清事情 的真相。很快的，Beilein说他开始去跟各个球员谈，厘清他本来要讲的话以及要表达的意 思。 "I didn't realize that I had said the word "thugs," but my staff told me later I did and so I must have said it," Beilein told ESPN on Wednesday night. "I meant to say slugs, as in slow moving. We weren't playing hard before, and now we were playing harder. I meant it as a compliment. That's what I was trying to say. I've already talked to eight of my players tonight, and they are telling me that they understand." 「我不知道我有讲"thugs"那个字，但是我的工作人员之後告诉我说我有说，所以我一定是 说了，」Beilein跟ESPN说。「我本来是要说"slugs"，就是指慢吞吞的意思。我们之前打 得不够努力，而现在我们打得比较努力了，我本来是要赞美球员的，那是我本来想说的意 思。我已经跟8个球员解释过了，他们跟我说他们有了解了。」 Altman was in the process of gathering details and context on the team film session on Wednesday night, sources told ESPN. 消息来源说，总管Altman正在蒐集那天影片时间到底发生了什麽的所有细节以及内容。 After signing a five-year contract, Beilein, 66, has been slow to connect with his players and adjust to the NBA in his first year on the job. Beilein has been on the receiving end of significant frustration from All-Star forward Kevin Love, and in some cases, several of the younger core of players whom Beilein had been hired to teach and develop. 66岁的Beilein与骑士签下五年的合约，他的第一年在与球员沟通上还不是很快，还在做调 整中。除了接受来自球队全明星前锋Kevin Love的许多抱怨外，其他一些本来是要聘 Beilein来培养的年轻球员也对他有抱怨。 Beilein held a film session at a Detroit hotel on Wednesday, and largely derided his players for poor decision-making and execution, sources said. The Cavaliers play the Pistons on Thursday in Detroit. 消息来源说，Beilein的影片时间大部分是在数落他的球员们场上做错误的决定以及执行战 术不佳。明天骑士会在客场面对活塞。 The Cavaliers are 10-27, and planning to continue making veterans players available on the trade market to cycle into a full rebuilding mode. Cleveland hired Beilein from the University of Michigan, his final college stop on a coaching career that had spanned over 40 years in the collegiate game. 骑士战绩10-27，持续在交易市场上想卖他们的老将，好进入重建期。骑士是从密西根大学 聘Beilein来当教练，他在大学篮球已经执教超过40年。 -- 会不会比队上老将还早卷铺盖 --
