Bickerstaff inclined to keep point guard on for $4.4 million Fri, Jul. 21, 2006 畢胖傾向於用４.４Ｍ留下控球後衛(Knight) Looks like Brevin Knight might be back with the Charlotte Bobcats after all. 看起來，Brevin Knight 終究會回到山貓的球員名單。 "We're more inclined to keep Brevin," coach-general manager Bernie Bickerstaf f said Thursday. "It would be hard for us to find a better point guard than him " for what teams would offer in trade. 『我們比較傾向於留下Brevin。』教練兼總管畢胖在禮拜四說：『對我們來說，要去找 一個比他更好的控衛是很困難的。』為何球隊該把他放在交易清單裡呢。 "This is a place where he can finish his career with a nice salary. Brevin wa nts to be here." 『這裡是個他可以有不錯的薪水結束他生涯的地方，Brevin 也是希望來這裡的。』 Bickerstaff said last month that Knight was available for the right draft pic k or young player. Raymond Felton's rapid improvement the second half of last season signaled a reduced role for Knight. He spent part of last season startin g as an undersized shooting guard, and now the Bobcats have rookie Adam Morriso n to develop on the wing. 上個月畢胖曾說過可以利用 Knight 來獲得選秀順位或年輕球員。Raymond Felton上個 球季後半的急速成長也代表了 Knight 角色的縮減。他上個球季許多時間是以一個矮先發 後衛的角色先發，而現在山貓也有了新秀 Adam Morrison 補強了側翼。 Knight will make about $4.4 million next season, but Bickerstaff says that's a reasonable price to know the team is well covered at the point. Knight 下季的薪水大約是４.４Ｍ，不過畢胖說在掩護控衛這個點上，這是個合理的價 錢 。 Veteran power forward Othella Harrington signed Wednesday, and Bickerstaff is working to complete negotiations with free agent Bernard Robinson and second-ro und pick Ryan Hollins. 經驗豐富的大前鋒 Othella Harrington 在禮拜三簽了約，而畢胖正在跟自由球員 Bern ard Robinson 以及 第二輪新秀 Ryan Hollins 談下季的合約。 According to Bickerstaff, Harrington's presence does not preclude bringing ba ck Melvin Ely, a restricted free agent. 畢胖表示，Harrington 的簽約不代表會阻礙受限制自由球員 Melvin Ely 的簽約。 "Last season proved you can never have enough of those guys," said Bickerstaf f, referring to injuries to Emeka Okafor and Sean May. 『上個球季證明了，你永遠都不能缺少這些傢伙(禁區球員)。』畢胖如是說，談及Emeka Okafor 跟 Sean May 的受傷缺陣。 Bickerstaff anticipates Ely's representatives pursuing a sign-and-trade. The alternative would be another team signing Ely to an offer sheet, and testing wh ether the Bobcats would match. 畢胖也準備好面對 Ely 的經紀人提出先簽後換的要求。另外一個可能就是其他球隊對 E ly 提出一份合約，然後考驗山貓是否會比照出價。 Bickerstaff denied an Internet report that the team made an offer to Argentin ian forward Walter Hermann -- a veteran of the Spanish League who played a game with the Bobcats in summer league. 畢胖否認了網路上對於簽下了阿根廷前鋒 Walter Hermann 的報導--他是個在西班牙聯 盟打球的老鳥，他也在山貓的夏季聯盟出賽了一場。 "We're still talking to his people," Bickerstaff said. "We'll make a decision next week" whether to offer him a contract. 『我們仍然在跟他談(經紀人、原隊..等)。』畢胖說：『我們會在下禮拜決定是否要給 他一份合約。』 來源：http://0rz.net/951Du -- 學海無涯， --
