http://0rz.tw/h98eD PHOENIX – The Kings are uncertain when John Salmons will return to the team. When he does, he'll have to play his way back into the rotation. 鮭魚何時回歸沒有時間表。 Salmons has missed the last five preseason games, including Monday night's 103-88 loss to the Phoenix Suns at US Airways Center. Salmons was excused from the team for personal reasons. 他因為個人原因已向球隊請了五場的假 "No timetable," Kings coach Keith Smart said of Salmons' return. "Just in communication with him, and I told him just take your time and come back when you're ready." Keith Smart 說:『沒有時間表，我剛跟他通完電話。我說你好好處理你的事 我們等你準備好歸隊。』 In Salmons' absence, James Johnson, Francisco Garcia and Travis Outlaw appear to have cornered the minutes at small forward with Tyreke Evans still playing there when the Kings go with a smaller lineup. Salmons began last season as the starting small forward but was benched while mired in a season-long slump. 不重要 (略) When Salmons does return, Smart expects he will need time to catch up with teammates and to get into NBA shape. 當鮭魚回來時，Smart希望他趕上隊友的進度 "You can go run on a treadmill at the Y, (but) it's just not the same," Smart said. "We've got to get his conditioning back to where it was when he left and then see what he does once he starts playing." Smart 說:『他可以在跑步機上練一下，但情況沒這麼容易。 我們要先讓他找回他離隊時的身體狀況再做評估。』 Smart figures Salmons is working out and that he won't return totally out of shape. The coach just doesn't want to throw him back into a game before Salmons is ready. Smart 認為鮭魚不會離譜到回來時身材都變了。 但除非確定一切OK，不然Smart 不會輕易讓他上場的。 "I'm sure as a veteran he's doing (what it takes) to keep himself going," Smart said. Smart 說:『我相信做為一名經驗豐富的老將他知道他該怎麼調整。』 -- 『把湯分成兩半並不是奇蹟，那是魔術。 一個單親媽媽，打工兼差，還能找出時間來陪孩子練球，那才是奇蹟。 一個青少年可以拒絕毒品，並接受教育，那才是奇蹟。』 摘自電影《王牌天神》 --
