New Orleans Hornets team president Hugh Weber meets with Kevin Pritchard's agent to discuss vacant general manager's job Published: Thursday, July 15, 2010, 6:07 PM Updated: Thursday, July 15, 2010, 6:15 PM LAS VEGAS -- New Orleans Hornets team president Hugh Weber met with Kevin Pritchard’s agent, Warren LeGarie, on Thursday at the Las Vegas Summer League to discuss their vacant general manager’s job, according to league sources. 黃蜂總裁Weber與Kevin Pritchard經紀人今天見面討論空出來的GM工作。 Though Pritchard is the first candidate that Weber has inquired about, sources said there is no frontrunner yet and the Hornets plan to interview several candidates before they make a final decision. 雖然Pritchard是第一個投履歷的，不過根據內線表示目前黃蜂並沒有口袋名單。 Pritchard helped rebuild the Portland Trail Blazers, acquiring Brandon Roy, LaMarcus Aldridge, Nicolas Batum, Jerryd Bayless and Marcus Camby in separate deals during the past four years. 過去四年，Pritchard再波特蘭幫助球隊拿到Brandon Roy、LaMarcus Aldridge、Nicolas Batum、Jerryd Bayless、Marcus Camby Pritchard worked with Hornets Coach Monty Williams when Williams was an assistant with the Trail Blazers. Weber will lead the search, but Williams will have input, along with owners George Shinn and Monty Williams. Pritchard和新教練Monty Williams曾經再波特蘭共事過……… The job became vacant on Tuesday when the Hornets and Jeff Bower reached a mutual agreement to part ways. http://www.nola.com/hornets/index.ssf/2010/07/new_orleans_hornets_team_presi.htm http://0rz.tw/Sn1dx -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- New Orleans Hornets re-sign backup center Aaron Gray with two-year deal Published: Thursday, July 15, 2010, 5:10 PM Updated: Thursday, July 15, 2010, 5:38 PM LAS VEGAS - The New Orleans Hornets have re-signed backup center Aaron Gray to a two-year contract, team officials announced on Thursday. Gray becomes the Hornets' first free-agent signee. 黃蜂拿出兩年約今天正式簽下Aaron Gray，這是今年第一個從自由市場撈到的小魚。 Gray was acquired last season by the Hornets on Jan. 25 from the Chicago Bulls in exchange for guard Devin Brown. In 24 games with the Hornets last season, Gray averaged 3.6 points and 3.8 rebounds. Gray是去年1/25用Devin Brown跟公牛換來的。他上個球季為黃蜂出賽了24場比賽，平均 每場拿到3.6分和3.8籃板。 http://www.nola.com/hornets/index.ssf/2010/07/new_orleans_hornets_re-sign_ba.htm http://0rz.tw/u1mv2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chicago-based sports agent Mark Bartelstein disagrees with New Orleans Hornets' decision to withdraw contract offer to Luther Head Published: Thursday, July 15, 2010, 1:21 PM Updated: Thursday, July 15, 2010, 2:39 PM LAS VEGAS – Chicago-based agent Mark Bartelstein said he plans to look at all matters of recourse against the New Orleans Hornets for backing out of their deal to offer his client, free-agent shooting guard Luther Head a two-year contract. 經紀人Mark Bartelstein表示他將追究黃蜂撤銷提供Luther Head兩年合約協議的內幕。 Hornets withdrew their offer to Head on Wednesday because he had some physical issues during his physical examination that was a concern of the Hornets' medical staff. 星期三，黃蜂因為體檢問題撤銷了給Head的兩年合約。 "We can appreciate Mark's passion for his clients and understand his disappointment," Hornets team president Hugh Weber said Thursday. "It is our procedure for a player to undergo a thorough physical examination before a contract can be finalized. After consulting with our medical team, the Hornets organization feels that it is not in our best interest to move forward with the signing." Weber今天表示：我們能了解Bartelstein和Head的不爽。但是根據黃蜂的規定，球員簽約前 必須通過體檢。而根據隊醫表示簽Head不符合黃蜂的利益… The Hornets’ decision not to offer Head a contract was made after the franchise and general manager Jeff Bower mutually agreed to part ways on Tuesday. Though the deal agreement was reached last Saturday, Head had not signed the contract yet. 黃蜂星期二決定跟前GM Bower分手後，星期三就決定不簽Head。雖然是上星期六決定 簽Head的，不過也還沒跟他簽越… “There is absolutely nothing wrong with him – zero,’’ Bartelstein said Thursday morning. “This is a business where you have to have relations and trust people. They chose to fire Jeff and that’s disappointing in itself, but they are entitled to do whatever they think to do from a business standpoint. But Jeff was the general manager of the team when they made the deal. You have to honor the deal that your general manager make.’’ Bartelstein說：Head絕對很健康，沒問題的。這是一筆生意，要有誠信。黃蜂選擇和 Bower分手，從經營的角度來看黃蜂是有權這樣作。但是這是Bower還當GM時所做的協議 黃蜂應該要履行。 Bartelstein has several NFL clients and represents 36 players in the NBA, including Metairie native Danny Granger, who plays for the Indiana Pacers. http://www.nola.com/hornets/index.ssf/2010/07/agent_mark_bartelstein_disagre.htm http://0rz.tw/TSB7D -- 翻錯就錯了勿怪，邊上班邊打的XD --
