Ford is approaching the possibility he could be traded by the Indiana Pacers in the next month as part of the business of the NBA. Ford在下個月有被溜馬交易的可能性 The starting point guard earlier in the season, Ford has been benched and hasn't played since Dec. 30 as Pacers coach Jim O'Brien has elected to go with Earl Watson as the starter and rookie A.J. Price as the backup. Ford在去年12/30號之後就沒在上過場 "The ball's in their court," Ford said when asked what he thought about a trade possibly coming before the end of the season. "Definitely, I want to play. If I'm not going to play here, if I can go somewhere else and play, then of course." Ford說是否交易由高層決定,他希望能夠打球,如果到其他隊伍也OK Before Friday's game in Detroit, O'Brien was asked if there is a possibility the Pacers could move Ford before the Feb. 18 trading deadline. "I don't think there's any doubt," O'Brien said. "He's a quality point guard. He could really help another franchise." 教練歐比王認為Ford是有實力的,能夠幫助其他隊伍 Ford said he has not discussed a trade with Pacers management -- "I'm not looking to trade T.J.,'' Pacers president Larry Bird said Saturday night -- and hasn't been told his benching is for the rest of the season. Ford沒有跟高層討論是否要交易他,球團也沒說要把他冰藏到季末 而大鳥則表示他目前沒打算交易Ford "It's a business," Ford said. "It is what it is. I'm doing all the things I'm supposed to do since I'm still on the roster. I'm healthy. I still get my workouts in, my conditioning in. I stay ready. Ford表示他很健康,也有持續在做體能訓練,因為他還是球隊的一員 "If they trade me, they'll trade me on their own will and power. I haven't said anything. I'm just doing what I'm supposed to be doing." Ford表示要是他被交易,那是球團的決定,他並沒有參入意見 Ford makes $8.5 million this season and has a player option for $8.5 million next year. Ford今年合約是 8.5M,下一季有球員選擇權 ***** 後面就不翻了.... ***** 結論: 1. Ford 想打球,不排斥交易,但沒有找高層說要交易他~ 2. 球隊尚未告知 Ford 是否會被冰到季末 3. 大鳥表示: 暫時沒有打算交易 Ford -- 一馬離了～～ 西‧涼‧界～～ --
