But for Shane Battier, seeing The Palace is a welcome sight and perhaps a glimpse into the not-so-distant future. 奥本山讯 - 回家对每个人来说不见得都是容易的，但对S.Battier来说，宫殿球场是 个令人愉快的景象而且可能是对於不远将来的惊鸿一瞥。 Battier, who attended Birmingham-Detroit Country Day, is in his first season with the Houston Rockets after being traded from Memphis for the draft rights to Rudy Gay. 出席伯明罕-底特律故乡日的Battier本季才刚穿上休士顿火箭的红白球衣，他被孟斐 斯灰熊交易至火箭以换取对於R.Gay的选秀权。 He still is getting used to a new city and system. 他仍在努力适应这个崭新的城市和系统。 "It's difficult, uprooting and moving everything," he said."But you have to adjust." "那很困难，连根拔起并移动一切，"他说。"但你必须想办法适应。" Battier, who is averaging nine points a game, down from his 10.5 career average , was drafted sixth overall by the Grizzlies in 2001. 目前平均一场比赛可以得到9分(生涯平均10.5分)的Battier於'01年选秀会中第6顺位 被灰熊给选中。 But the former Duke standout always envisioned putting on a different cap than the one handed to him by commissioner David Stern. 但这位前杜克大学的杰出球员总想像可以从NBA主席D.Stern手中接下另一队的帽子。 "Detroit had the ninth pick that year," said Battier, who scored nine points and had six rebounds in Saturday night's 104-92 loss to the Pistons. "I really wanted to come here. It would have been a dream come true." "底特律拥有当年的第九顺位，"星期六晚上火箭以92比104败给活塞的比赛中得到9分 、6篮板的Battier说道。"我真的想加入这支球队，如果真能如此，那可称得上是美梦成真 了吧。" Rodney White, who the Pistons ended up selecting ninth, now is out of the league. 活塞在第9顺位所挑中的R.White目前已经不在联盟当中。 Could Battier still end up as a Piston? Battier仍能穿着活塞球衣结束球员生涯吗？ Battier let in on a secret: He wants to finish his career where he felt it should have started. Battier让它变成心中的秘密：他希望可以在他感觉应该开始职业生涯的那支球队结束 职业生涯。 "I would love to finish my career here," he said. "That's my dream now, even though I'm happy the way things have gone so far." "我会很乐意自己的职业生涯在此地结束，"他说。"那是我现在的梦想，尽管我对於迄 今发生的每件事都很满意。" Battier spent the summer playing for Team USA in Japan, but he also found time to settle some roots back home. Battier暑假期间为梦幻七队在日本出赛，但也挪出一些时间回到家乡做了一些安排。 He and his wife, Heidi, bought a condo in metro Detroit, and he plans to move back here full-time once his playing days are over. 他和他的太太Heidi在底特律市区买了间独栋住宅，而他计画在职业生涯结束後能回底 特律长住。 "I finally wised up and got a place here this summer," he said. "But I want to walk away before the game kicks me out." "这个夏天我终於在这里有了一个属於自己的地方，"他说"但我希望在没办法再打球之 前尽可能地享受球赛。" On a separate note, Battier said he felt the loss of Michigan legendary football coach Bo Schembechler, who died Friday at the age of 77. Battier's wife's grandfather was Bob Ufer, the late legendary Michigan announcer. 另外，Battier说他对於星期五辞世，享年77岁的密西根传奇美式足球教练B. Schembechler感到相当惋惜。Battier太太的祖父是B.Ufer，已故的密西根传奇播报员。 "So we are a Michigan family through and through," Battier said. "We are saddened by the news and he was a big part of the tradition of Michigan football and he touched and affected the lives of so many people in such a positive way." "所以我们是一个彻头彻尾的密西根家庭，"Battier说。"我们对於那个新闻感到很难 过，他在密西根美式足球史上占了相当重要的位置而且积极而正面地触碰、影响了许多人 的生命。" -- Slam dunks 快报 Saturday's sell-out was the Pistons' 140th in a row, though the arena had noticeable sections that were less than half-full. 星期六门票售罄已经是活塞连续第140次，不过球场有某几个区域引人注意，因为座位 大概坐不满一半。 The entire Pistons' bench was assessed a technical foul in the second quarter. So, who pays the fine? Well, later, they assessed it to Rasheed Wallace. The Pistons are contesting it, saying they believe the deserving party is assistant coach Ron Harper. 活塞全体板凳球员在第二节领到一次大T，所以要由谁来支付罚款？嗯，之後裁判将它 判给了溪蛙。活塞对此判决感到不满，他们认为那大T该判给助理教练R.Harper。 The Michigan-Ohio State football game was being played on the Jumbotron so the early-arriving fans could see the second half. Cheers and groans were heard loudly throughout The Palace. 密西根大对俄亥俄州大的美式足球赛在超大型电视上播放，所以提前到场的球迷可以 看到下半场的比赛。欢呼声和叹息声在整个宫殿此起彼落。 --
