There wasn't a lot of time to sit and think about his impending inductions. 一開始是季後賽，然後接踵而來的是選秀會、自由球員市場和夏季聯賽，他根本就沒 什麼時間可以坐下來好好想一想即將到來的介紹會。 "I didn't really think about it at all until August," he said. 他說"直到八月，我都沒有時間認真思考這件事情。" But finally, with most of the summer business finalized, he had time to put his mind to the September inductions. And he picked an old friend and teammate to do his introduction. 在大部分暑假休兵期間必須處理的事務塵埃落定後，他終於有時間和心思去認真思考 將在九月舉行的介紹會，而他選擇了一個老朋友兼老戰友來做他的介紹。 It's an obvious choice, sure, but who else could Dumars pick besides Isiah Thomas, his old Pistons backcourt running mate? The two combined to form one of the best backcourts in NBA history. 當然啦，那是一個顯而易見的選擇。除了笑笑湯，他的活塞後場搭當，老喬還有更好 的人選嗎？這最佳雙人組形塑了NBA歷史上最出色的後場雙人組合之一。 Only those previously enshrined can introduce new members. Thomas, now the coach and president of the New York Knicks, went into the Hall in 2000. The two won two titles together as members of the Bad Boys teams in 1989 and 1990. 只有那些之前就已經入選的人可以介紹新成員，而現任紐約尼克教練兼總管的笑笑湯 在'00年時就進入了名人堂，他和老喬兩人曾於'89和'90年時共同率領壞孩子們連續兩度攻 頂成功。 Dumars will be enshrined during Hall of Fame festivities Sept. 8-9 in Springfield, Mass. His fellow inductees include Charles Barkley, Dominique Wilkins, women's basketball coach Geno Auriemma, former Big East commissioner David Gavitt and Italian National Team coach Sandro Gamba. 老喬正式加入名人堂的儀式將在九月八至九日於麻州春田市的名人堂慶典中舉行，和 他一同入選者還包括自稱地球上最會打籃球的C.Barkley、人類精華影片第一集的D.
