Batum接受訪問表示想去馬刺的原因是，因為馬刺教頭Popovich跟他說了因為馬刺 球員太老了，所以若Batum來可以讓他進入輪替名單內 Batum也表示波特蘭是他第二喜歡的球隊(現在有人相信嗎??) 我們有一群跟他年紀差不多的人，我們隊伍很不錯 然後就是一些巴拉巴拉的說好話.. 會 怕 就 好 http://www.blazersedge.com/2008/6/28/560646/batum-deceived-not-having In a french interview Nicolas Batum is saying that he really wanted to join SA, that he had talked to Popovich and that they planned to put him in the rotation sarting next year because their forwards are getting old and that they planned to make him one of their main forwards in two or three years... He's saying that he was praying NOT to be selected until the 26th pick and that his selection one spot prior to that one was even tougher to swallow... He's saying that his goal IS to go to SA and that it's a real shame it's gotten played within one spot. Then after the interviewer is saying that Batum looked very deceived which Batum confirms before saying the important thing is that Portland is a good team, with an interesting game and lots of players of his generation, and that he thinks there's gonna be some beautiful game next year. He's saying the team is very young and that it's the second best choice for him (seems pretty sincere...). The interview ends with the journalist asking him what's he gonna give to Portland, to which he answers his vivacity and his team play, and that since it's a very young team, he's gonna try to fit in the mold to take full advantage of this experience. --
