http://0rz.tw/e03bS Spurs: Notebook: Popovich wants light international load Web Posted: 10/14/2007 01:20 AM CDT Mike Monroe San Antonio Express-News Spurs coach Gregg Popovich on Saturday expressed some of the same concerns about the grind of some international competitions that NBA commissioner David Stern raised last week in Spain. NBA执行长David Stern上周在西班牙提出一些国际赛事对球员的消耗的看法，而马刺总教练 Gregg Popovich在周六对此也表示相同的关切。 Stern told reporters in Madrid last week that international competitions "... ar e too long for basketball, but FIBA is going in the wrong direction, adding team s and making it longer." Stern上周和马德采访员谈述关於国际赛事「以篮球运动来说，国际赛事的时程排太长了 ，但FIBA却往错误方向走，他们增加更多的参赛队伍，让比赛时程更长。」 Popovich supports his players who want to compete for their national teams but a grees the long grind of an international tournament takes a toll. He said point guard Tony Parker's participation with the French team this summer came close to reaching a point of diminishing returns. Parker has yet to play this pres eason, sitting out Saturday's game against Panathinaikos. Popovich支持他的队伍中想要为国家队效力的球员，但他也同意国际赛长期的消耗将会造成 一些代价，他说，控球後卫Tony Parker这个夏天参加法国国家队已造成身体的消耗过度。 Parker没有参加周六对抗Panathinaikos的比赛，而他接下来仍要打季前赛。 "It's tough for every NBA team that has made huge investments in these players," Popovich said, "but we realize these guys are going to play somewhere anyway, s o you tell yourself that if they're in an organized situation, that's better tha n just playing on the street someplace. We convince ourselves that playing on th e national teams is OK, because that's organized, but there is a point of dimini shing returns, too." 「要耗费庞大的心力在这些球员上，这对所有NBA球队来说都是件苦差事。」Popovich说「 但我们了解这些球员无论如何都会去那些地方打球，所以只能你自己告诉自己，他们是在一 个有完整组织的环境下比赛，这会比在街头地方打球好的多，我们确信我们的球员为自己国 家队效力是很OK的，因为那边的组织相当完善，但这也会造成球员体能过度销耗。」 No Horry: Robert Horry joined the three injured point guards - Parker, Jacque Va ughn and Beno Udrih - in street clothes behind the bench. He wasn't injured, jus t given a night to rest. Horry缺阵:Horry加入三个伤兵控球後卫的行列，他当时穿着轻便服装在场边观战，但其实 他没有受伤，只是教练让他休息一个晚上。 Missing Vassilis: Popovich says he wishes Vassilis Spanoulis, now a guard for Pa nathinaikos, would have stayed in the States. 想念Vassilis Spanoulis: Spanoulis现为Panathinaikos的後卫，未来可能会ㄧ直待在那里 ，Popovich对此表示祝福。 Spanoulis, traded to the Spurs in the offseason as part of the Luis Scola deal, was waived in early July after he made it clear he had no intention of remaining in the NBA. Spanoulis是在非赛季期间被交易到马刺，他是交易Scola的筹码的一部份，当他表明他没 有意愿留在NBA打球後，球队在七月初将他挥弃。 "He had a great chance to be a backup on our team," Popovich said. "I was disapp ointed when he said he didn't want to play in the NBA anymore. I didn't even get to talk to him about it. Not one word." 「他本来有大好机会成为我们球队的替补球员」Popovich说「我有点遗憾，当时他说他再也 不想在NBA打球了，我没跟他提起过任何一个字。」 Spanoulis did not play in Saturday's game. He opted to stay behind in Greece whi le nursing a sore calf. Spanoulis并没参加周六的比赛，他留在希腊治疗受伤的小腿。 -- 第二次翻译，有错还希望版友指正，谢谢 ※ 编辑: xioak 来自: 140.130.175.165 (10/15 16:53) ※ 编辑: xioak 来自: 140.130.175.165 (10/15 16:54) ※ 编辑: xioak 来自: 140.130.175.165 (10/15 16:59) ※ 编辑: xioak 来自: 140.130.175.165 (10/15 17:59)
