※ 引述《hardaway (一分錢)》之銘言： : Hardaway, another former All-Star given up as a lost cause by just about : everyone else after microfracture surgery on his knee, found new hope under : Lucas' tutelage. Now, the Sonics appear interested in giving him another look : at the NBA. Hardaway，其中一個因為膝蓋手術而被放棄的前明星球員，終於在 John Lucas 的監督下 找到了新希望。現在，超音速有興趣讓他重新回到 NBA。 : Lucas says Hardaway looks better than he has in years. His quickness and : athleticism aren't what they once were, but Lucas believes he can help a team : in need of a point guard who knows how to run a team. Lucas 說 Hardaway 看起來比這些年好多了。 雖然 Penny 的敏捷性和競技能力已經不如從前，但 Lucas 相信 Penny 能夠幫助那些需 要 "一個知道如何帶動球隊的控球後衛" 的球隊。 : "Obviously," Lucas said, "he's not the Penny of old, but he's certainly good : enough to play again in the NBA. He looks the best I have seen him in almost : seven years. But forget about the physical stuff. His biggest asset is he : just knows how to play." "當然，他已經不是從前的 Penny 了，但他肯定還能夠回到 NBA 的。" Lucas 這樣說， "他現在看起來是我七年來看過最好的。先不提那些身體狀況，Penny 最大的財產就是他 知道如何去打好比賽。" : The "Penny of old" to whom Lucas refers was something. Those who came to the : NBA in the very recent past won't believe it, but before The LeBrons, there : was Li'l Penny, the coolest advertising icon this side of that Cockney lizard : that pitches car insurance. Nike used him to fill the gap when Michael Jordan : retired, and he was arguably as popular. Lucas 所提到的 "從前的 Penny" 是一些最近才加入看 NBA 的球迷所不會了解的。 在 The LeBrons 之前，Li'l Penny 是最酷的廣告偶像。Nike 用它來填補 MJ 退休所留 下的缺口，它也很快的流行起來。 : Now, Hardaway is more often referenced as proof Amare Stoudemire's comeback : this season from microfracture surgery is fool's gold. 現在，Hardaway 常常被拿來作為參考，以證明本季剛從膝蓋手術復出的 Amare 只是有如 一塊愚人金，有可能會像 Penny 的生涯後期一樣只是一時好轉而會表現不穩。 : But not Lucas. "Lukey" always finds positives where others see hopelessness. : He never stops believing, not even in Shawn Kemp. 但 Lucas 不這樣認為。"Lukey"(Lucas的暱稱) 常常在一些別人看起來已經絕望的地方中 找到希望。他從來不放棄希望，甚至是對 Shawn Kemp 也一樣。 : Lucas thinks Hardaway and the Sonics will come to terms before long and has : little doubt he can help Seattle. The Sonics may intend to wait until 10-day : contracts can be signed next week, hoping to get a nearly free look at him. : Lenny Wilkens, hired recently as a basketball consultant by new owner Clay : Bennett, apparently remains skeptical. Lucas 認為 Hardaway 和超音速將在不久後簽約，並對他能幫助西雅圖不多做懷疑。 超音速計畫等到下禮拜能簽10天合約的時候再決定，希望不花太多錢來觀察他的狀況。 最近剛被超音速新老闆 Clay Bennett 聘請為籃球顧問的 Lenny Wilkens 對此明顯保留 懷疑............. --
