Cavs interested in retired guard Allan Houston By Brian Windhorst Beacon Journal sportswriter That might not change anytime soon, but they are in the game. Team sour ces said the Cavs have interest in former New York Knicks star Allan Housto n, who is planning a comeback two years after being forced to retire becaus e of knee problems. Houston, 36, was one of the best shooting guards in the game in his prime. He told ESPN.com last week that his knee is feeling bett er and he hopes to play this season. 事情可能不會很快敲定，不過球隊消息來源說騎士對前明星阿倫侯斯頓感興趣。36 歲的侯斯頓這兩年來都計畫復出，上週告訴ESPN他的腳復原很多，希望這季就能上場打 球。 Various media outlets have reported that the Dallas Mavericks also have shown interest in Houston. The Mavericks, though, already have 17 players u nder contract and just signed veteran shooting guard Eddie Jones to a deal last week. 小牛也對侯斯頓有興趣，儘管他們已經有十七個人了。 Houston, who made $40 million despite not playing for the past two year s, probably would be looking for a deal that guarantees him the veteran's m inimum of $1.2 million. 侯斯頓前兩年沒打球也有四千萬可拿，他可望以老將保障約120萬加盟任何球隊。 "I'm looking to play a supporting role to some of these great young sta rs," Houston told the Web site. "More of a leadership role, someone who can add experience and stability late in games. I don't expect my scoring and m y minutes to be what they used to, but at the same time, I'm not looking to just be a decoy out there. I'd like to have some kind of role." 侯斯頓的自我期許。 The Cavs have talked to retired stars in the past. An NBA source said t he Cavs tried to talk Reggie Miller into coming out of retirement after the All-Star break last season. Miller, who is very close to Cavs coach Mike Br own, recently has been courted by the Boston Celtics. 一個聯盟消息來源說其實去年明星週過後，騎士有遊說過退休球星雷擊神米復出， 因為他跟Mike Brown教練很熟。 Coach to be hired The Cavs are expected to fill the hole on their coaching staff this week .
