新ID第一PO，献给溜马版。(旧ID-indypacers 引退!! 可以挂球衣吗?!) http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=3302114 INDIANAPOLIS -- Indiana Pacers president Larry Bird wants to stick around for the team's expected offseason overhaul. 大鸟想在休季期间补破网。 He's just not sure whether he'll be orchestrating it. 不过他也不确定是否有这机会。 The NBA Hall of Famer said Wednesday he won't know his plans until he meets with team owners Melvin and Herb Simon. 名人堂的鸟说不确定他的计画，直到跟老板来会晤。 "I want to wait to talk to the owners and see what they want," Bird said after the Pacers' shootaround. "I will say that I'd like to be here because I enjoy this." 我想跟头会商，并且了解什麽是老板要的。 大鸟说他很喜欢且享受在这里的一切。 The past few seasons, however, haven't been much fun. 过去几个球季，不是那麽有趣。 Bird acknowledged he didn't want to trade Ron Artest to Sacramento and Stephen Jackson to Golden State, moves made after those two players ran into trouble. 大鸟其实不是那麽想要交易阿泰到沙城、丑脸到金州，交易起因於这2个傻蛋卷入的麻烦。 Artest was a primary participant in the infamous brawl with Detroit Pistons fans in 2004-05, and Jackson had a troubled tenure with the team that included pleading guilty to criminal recklessness for firing gunshots in the air during an Indianapolis strip-club fight. 阿泰是奥本山大乱斗的主角，丑脸在脱衣俱乐部的开枪事件。 Ridding the team of the pair didn't make the Pacers' off-court problems vanish, however. 即使将这2个傻蛋交易，但没有使溜马的场外问题消失不见。 This season, Pacers guard Jamaal Tinsley and several companions were targeted in an early December shooting that wounded the team's equipment manager outside a downtown hotel. Police said someone shot an assault rifle at the group after a confrontation at a nightclub miles away. 汀汀以及队友在夜店是个人才。 On Monday, Tinsley and Marquis Daniels cut a deal with prosecutors to avoid trial on charges in a February 2007 fight at an Indianapolis nightclub. 汀汀跟阿丹才刚了结此事。 That agreement was the latest in a series of legal problems and incidents involving Pacers, including the recent arrest of a murder suspect after he had been at the home of forward Shawne Williams, and a reported rape at Daniels' home. Neither player was charged. 小威的隐匿杀人犯疑云以及阿丹家中的强暴案(之前外电不是写小威家吗?!)， 最後证实都与2位无关。 Still, it has tarnished the Pacers' reputation and hurt attendance. 溜马的往昔纪律不在。 "That's the most discouraging thing, the incidents the players have been in," Bird said. "There's really a disconnect between the fans and the team. We have had a fan base that was very loyal, and now that's dwindled some." 大鸟又再说官话。 Pacers CEO Donnie Walsh reportedly has been talking with the New York Knicks about taking over as president. Walsh did not take questions Wednesday, and Bird did not elaborate on the reports, although he said he has seen them. 华许刚成为尼克总裁位置的乳莫主角。 "While there's been speculation he's been talking to other teams, I have too much respect for him to talk about that," Bird said. "I hope he stays." 大鸟对华许有许多尊敬，且希望他留下来。 The Simons have promised changes. But the team could risk a public relations disaster if it fired Bird, a revered figure in his home state. 西门头允诺会改变。但是砍掉大鸟是种冒险，毕竟大鸟在印城还有地位。 Bird shrugged off such a suggestion, reiterating he wants to help turn things around. 大鸟重申他想帮助球队重反荣耀。 "That's very important to me," he said. "It's easy when you're winning 55 or 60 games and going to the conference finals every year." 那对我而言是重要的。那是挺容易的，当你可以每年赢得55+的球赛且打入分区决赛时。 Copyright 2008 by The Associated Press 揪~竟~ 大鸟会不会被砍呢? 华许会不会到纽约成为卧底呢? 该不会这2位是暑假期间的焦点人物，那我可要哭了。 -- http://www.wretch.cc/blog/newpacers --
