It's a bit too soon to start calling him the next Coach K, but that's the world that Dallas Mavericks guard Jason Kidd is going to sample this week. 現在就稱他為下一個Coach K可能太早了一點，但這一週Kidd至少會率先品嘗 箇中滋味。 Although Kidd is not scheduled to accompany Team USA to the World Championships in Turkey later this summer, sources tell ESPNDallas.com that he'll be with the team as a special guest of the Team USA coaching staff for its Las Vegas training camp through Saturday. 雖然Kidd沒有計畫隨隊一起去土耳其參加世錦賽，但他將會在這一週於拉斯維 加斯所舉行的美國國家隊訓練營擔任教練組的特別來賓。 The move hasn't been officially announced yet, but Kidd's presence as a player liaison was requested by Team USA coach Mike Krzyzewski, who wants the 37-year-old to serve as a mentor and sounding board for a young squad that will return precisely zero of the 12 players who won gold in Beijing at the 2008 Olympics. 雖然還沒被正式宣布，但Kidd的參予是由美國國家隊總教練Mike Krzyzweski 所欽點。Coach K希望37歲的Kidd的可以為年輕的美國隊擔任亦師亦友的領導 角色。今年美國隊訓練營培訓名單內沒有任何球員是2008年北京奧運金牌隊 伍的成員。 If he has indeed left the international stage for good as a player, Kidd exits with two Olympic gold medals (2000 and 2008) ... and without ever having tasted defeat in a Team USA jersey (56-0) as a senior men's national team member. 如果Kidd真的正式從國際舞台以球員的身份退休了，那Kidd將會帶著兩枚奧運 金牌（2000年與2008年）離開，並且從未品嘗敗仗的滋味（56勝0敗）。 Along with Kidd and Mavericks athletic trainer Casey Smith in their staff roles, newly acquired Tyson Chandler will be the Mavs' lone on-court representative at Team USA camp, having received an invitation to join 20 other players in trying out for the national team shortly after Dallas acquired him from Charlotte last week. 除了Kidd與小牛隊的體能訓練員Casey Smith之外，新加入小牛隊的Tyson Chandler將會是小牛隊在拉斯維加斯訓練營唯一的球員代表。Chandler是在 正式加入小牛隊幾天後被邀清加入美國隊的21人候選名單之中。 --
