※ 引述《scsa1001 (scsa)》之銘言： : Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert first looked right, toward his new : general manager. Then left, at Cleveland's rookie coach . : "This is our team," proclaimed Gilbert, flanked at a table by GM Danny Ferry : and coach Mike Brown. "We have our team in place and we're going forward with : this team." "這是我們的球隊" Gilbert宣佈(好像有要大展身手的感覺),坐在GM Danny Ferry and coach Mike Brown旁說:我們的球隊已經準備就緒了,要出發嚕!! : One without Larry Brown, who was nowhere near Gund Arena -- and doesn't sound : like he'll be coming anytime soon. 看來Larry Brown在近期之內不會來了 : Ferry, part of one of the most debated trades in Cleveland history, came back : to the Cavaliers on Monday as the club's GM. Armed with a five-year contract, : he'll take over a team with $25 million in salary cap space to spend this : summer on free agents to complement star forward LeBron James. Ferry是騎士歷史上最具爭議交易的一分子(看來他和騎士頗有淵源),在星期一回來騎士 當GM,簽了五年的合約,他將接手騎士兩千五百萬的薪資空間在今夏的自由市場上找來能 和明星前鋒LeBron James相輔相成的球員 : With the NBA draft Tuesday and free agency opening July 1, Gilbert, who said : he interviewed 22 candidates for the GM position before hiring Ferry, : couldn't afford to wait any longer to finalize his front office. Gilbert說他在僱用Ferry之前已經面試了22個候選人,但星期四的選秀和七月一日的自ꔊ 由球員員市場開放日讓他已經沒有時間在等了 : The Cleveland Plain Dealer reported that Ferry contract is worth close to : $10 million. The paper -- citing two league sources -- reported Ferry's deal : also includes incentives. Ferry的合約接近一千萬,也有獎金 : Gilbert has talked with Brown about the Detroit Pistons coach becoming the : Cavs' president of basketball operations if he doesn't coach next season. But : Gilbert indicated that Brown is no longer in the Cavs' immediate plans. : "This organization right now can't wait to move forward," Gilbert said. "As : of now, Larry Brown is not coming to this organization. I don't know where : he'll end up or what he'll do. He's a great guy and we're all in awe of him. : But I feel real good about our team." Gilbert曾和Brown談過關於如果Brown下季不當教練的話,能否擔任騎士隊籃球事務總裁 的職務,不過Gulbert指出Brown已經不在騎士的短期計劃內了,Gilbert說:"這個團隊現在 已經等不及要向前了,Larry Brown現在已經不會來了,我不知道最後她會去哪或是做什 麼,他是一個好人,我們將會敬重他,我對我的球隊感覺非常好"(趕快挖來幾個大咖你的 感覺會更好) : At times, the Brown-to-the-Cavaliers story overshadowed the NBA playoffs, : forcing the 64-year-old to answer almost daily questions about his plans for : next season. Brown won't know what his next move will be until he addresses a : medical condition in coming days. 曾經,Brown去騎士隊的傳聞讓季後賽黯然失色,迫使這位64歲的老頭幾乎每天都要回答 關於他下季動向的問題 : He has an appointment scheduled for Wednesday morning at the Mayo Clinic. If : he is cleared by doctors to coach, that's what Brown intends to do. : "Nothing has changed with me," Brown said by phone about an hour before Ferry : was introduced at a news conference. "The Cleveland people are close to me, : they know what I want to do. I don't even want to speculate on my other : options if I can't coach. I've told Cleveland I would help them in any way I : can if I don't coach." Brown說:"什麼都沒有改變,Cleveland的民眾和我很close,他們知道什麼是我想做的,如 果我不繼續當教練的話,我甚至不會考慮我的其他選擇,我曾向Cleveland說過我會盡我 所能的幫助他們,只要我不當教練的話"(克里夫蘭人聽到應該很感動吧!) : Gilbert did not answer directly when asked if Brown could work for the : Cavaliers in a consulting role. Gilbert沒有直接回答Brown是否能以顧問角色替騎士工作 : The 38-year-old Ferry, who spent the past two seasons with San Antonio : working under Spurs GM R.C. Buford, will apparently have final say in all : player personnel decisions for the Cavs. 38歲,曾經在馬刺隊GM R.C. Buford底下工作兩季的Ferry看來會掌握所有球員的人事決 定權(拜託不要做濫交易啊!) : Ferry said that from the outset Gilbert promised him he would have full : control. Ferry說Gilbert一開始就保證他會有完全的控制權 : "The only way the job was presented to me after the season was that you would : have the basketball decisions, and you would lead the basketball operations : part of it," said Ferry, whose father, Bob, was GM of the Washington Bullets : from 1973-90. Ferry說:"在季後這份工作隊我來說就是我將領導整個籃球事務,我要做決定" Ferry的老爸在1973-1990曾任華盛頓子彈隊的GM (虎父無犬子啊!不知道他老爸幹的好不 好?) : Although he has never been a GM, Ferry feels he has all the necessary : qualifications. 雖然從沒當過GM,不過Ferry認為他有所有當GM必須的資格(這麼有自信啊!) : "I have more experience than most people," he said. "I grew up with it. My : dad was a GM for 20 years. I heard him curse and holler at agents when I was : nine years old." 他說:"我比大部分的人都有經驗,我是在這種環境下長大的,我老爸當了20年的GM,我在 九歲的時候就聽他對經紀人咒罵" : Ferry's main chore in Cleveland will be building a supporting cast around : James, who was the only Cavs player at the news conference. James quickly : exited afterward without speaking to reporters. Ferry在Cleveland的主要工作就是建造能輔助James的球員陣容 : "We have a pretty good player," Ferry said, smiling in James' direction. "We : want to build a team around him that he has fun playing with, that he believes : in, and that he's excited to come to work with everyday.That's important to me. We all have a responsibility to him to do that." "我們有一個很好的球員"Ferry說,並朝James的方向笑一下,"我想建立一個以他為主的 球隊,讓它可以打的很高興,可以信任,並每天都能興奮的一起努力,這對我來說很重要 ,我有責任為他做到" : Another big decision for Ferry will be whether to offer a new contract to : unrestricted free agent center Zydrunas Ilgauskas, his former teammate. The : club has until Friday to offer the 7-foot-3 All-Star an extension. Ferry還有一個很重要的決定要做就是是否要給不受限自由球員Big Z一份新合約,球隊 直到禮拜五都還未offer這個7尺3的All Star延長合約 : "I've very hopeful that Zydrunas is back," Ferry said. "Yes, he is a great : friend and I'm looking forward to giving him his first fine. I know he has : some tough decisions ahead of him and I'm hopeful that the decision is to be : here in Cleveland." Ferry說:"我很希望大Z能回來,我知道他需要先面對一些困難的決定,我希望這個決定是 留在Cleveland" : Ferry's decision to come back to Cleveland has reunited him with Mike Brown, : who was an assistant coach with the Spurs when Ferry finished his 13-year : playing career in San Antonio. Ferry重回Cleveland的決定讓他和Mike Brown再次相聚,當Ferry在馬刺結束他13年的球 員身涯時,Brown是助理教練 (原來他們還有這層淵源啊!) : And back with the Cavaliers, Ferry will get reacquainted with a few Cleveland : fans who have never gotten over Cleveland's 1989 trade that sent Ron Harper, : two first-round picks and a second-rounder to the Los Angeles Clippers for : Ferry and forward Reggie Williams. 回到Cleveland,Ferry會讓球迷再次想起1989年送走Ron Harper和兩個第一輪選秀權和 一個第二輪選秀權去和快艇隊交換Ferry和Reggie Williams的爛交易(真的很爛XD,不過 沒關係,來個將功折罪吧!!) : Ferry laughed loudly when asked if he would have made the same deal. : "No comment," he said. 當被問到是否會做同樣的交易,Ferry大笑,說:"No comment" (記者嘴巴還真賤) --
