Darren Collison won't wear No. 2 DALLAS -- Mark Cuban might have beef with Jason Kidd, but the Mavs’ new point guard has nothing but respect for the man he is replacing. In fact, Darren Collison has so much respect for Kidd that he chose not to wear No. 2 in Dallas. “I don’t feel like it’s necessary for me to wear No. 2,” said Collison, who wore No. 2 for UCLA, the New Orleans Hornets and the Indiana Pacers. “I just want to give that respect to him. I respect him as a player. Any young player looking up to Jason Kidd will tell you that he’s been helpful. And you know Jason Kidd has definitely been good to this organization, as well.” "我並不覺得我非得穿2號球衣。"Collison說道，他在UCLA、紐澳良黃蜂隊和印第安納 溜馬隊打球期間都是穿2號球衣打球， "我只是想利用這樣的方式向他(Kidd)致敬。作為一名球員，我很尊敬他。任何看著 Jason Kidd打球的年輕球員都會告訴你，他對於自己來說非常有幫助。當然，你也 知道Jason Kidd對於這個球隊來說也有過非常重要的作用。" The number was certainly available for Collison. Cuban said recently on ESPN Dallas 103.3’s “Ben and Skin Show” that there was “no chance” the Mavs would ever retire Kidd’s number after he had an 11th-hour change of heart, rescinding his verbal commitment to re-sign with the Mavs to take the same offer from the New York Knicks. That left the Mavs, who were unsuccessful in their early July bid to bring Deron Williams to Dallas despite Kidd’s recruiting assistance with his golf buddy, scrambling to find a starting point guard. They recovered rather well, acquiring Collison along with defensive-minded wing Dahntay Jones in backup center Ian Mahinmi’s sign-and-trade deal with the Pacers. 沒有Kidd和小胖後，小牛積極的尋找先發控衛。 因而獲得了Collison、Dahntay Jones。 Collison, who has career averages of 12.1 points and 5.2 assists, chose No. 4. He has no attachment to the number that Michael Finley wore so well for the Mavs … yet. 職業生涯場均12.1分和5.2次助攻，Collison最終選擇了4號作為自己的球衣號碼，而這 個號碼則是Michael Finley穿過的。(吸管哥也穿過) “I’m going to make it a good number,” Collison said. “Right now, it doesn ’t look too well because everybody is so accustomed to seeing me wear 2, but I’m going to make it look like it’s a good number.” 我會讓這個號碼也變成自己的一個好號碼。"Collison說道， "就現在而言，這個號碼看起來還不夠好，因為每個人都已經習慣了看我穿著2號球衣打 球，但是我會讓它成為一個好號碼。" http://espn.go.com/blog/dallas/mavericks ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 心得：還好沒人穿31號 --
