原文出處： http://www.thestar.com/Sports/article/238956 -- DETROIT – The Detroit Pistons signed forward Antonio McDyess to a two-year contract extension today, keeping the team's top reserve off the free-agent market next summer. 底特律訊 - 今天底特律活塞與前鋒袋鼠簽下一紙為期兩年的延長合約，此舉避免了這 位隊上最重要的替補球員在明年夏天投入自由球員市場的可能性。 McDyess, whose career once was in doubt because of knee operations, played in a career-high 82 games in each of the last two seasons. He has one season remaining on his current deal. 一度因為膝蓋手術而被質疑能否持續職業生涯的袋鼠，過去兩個球季出賽場次都達到 了生涯新高的82場(全勤)。他原本的合約還剩下一年。 "I'm excited to have worked out a contract extension with the Pistons," McDyess said in a statement. "We have enjoyed a lot of success as a team since I came to Detroit three years ago and I look forward to the upcoming season and making another run at an NBA championship.'' "我很興奮能與活塞簽下延長合約，"袋鼠在聲明中表示。"自從我三年前來到底特律後 ，我們已經享受過許多成功的樂趣，期待接下來的球季球隊能再一次努力爭取總冠軍。 The 32-year-old McDyess averaged 8.1 points – making 53 percent of his shots – six rebounds and 21 minutes a game last season, finishing sixth in voting for the Sixth Man of the Year. 32歲的袋鼠上個球季每場比賽平均攻下8.1分 - 平均投籃命中率53% - 抓下6個籃板， 上場21分鐘，在年度第六人的票選中名列第六。 "We are pleased to have reached an agreement that will keep Antonio McDyess here as an important veteran leader on this team," Pistons president of basketball operations Joe Dumars said in a statement. "Antonio has been a major part of our success over the last three years and we look forward to his continued solid play in the future." 我們很高興能達成協議，這讓我們可以把袋鼠留在陣中，繼續以老大哥的身分扮演球 隊重要的領袖角色，"活塞籃球事務總管老喬在一項聲明中表示。"袋鼠是過去三個球季球 隊能夠表現優異的要角，而我們期待他未來能持續過去那般硬朗的表現。" After he won an Olympic gold medal in 2000 and played in the All-Star game in 2001, knee injuries limited McDyess to just 52 games over three seasons before coming to Detroit in 2004 after the Pistons won the NBA title. 在'00年袋鼠披上夢幻隊戰袍贏得奧運金牌並在'01年於全明星賽亮相後，因膝蓋傷勢 所困，他在接下來三個球季一共只出賽52場。袋鼠在'04年活塞贏得NBA總冠軍後來到了底 特律。 McDyess previously has said he told his agent, Andy Miller, twice that he wanted to retire because he was frustrated while rehabbing his knee in New York and Phoenix. But Miller didn't act on his client's wishes, and it proved to be a wise move. 袋鼠之前說過他告訴他的經紀人Andy Miller，因為在紐約和鳳凰城進行復健時情形時 情形不很樂觀，他兩度想過要退休。Miller並未遵循他客戶的願望，而那目前看起來是個 明智的抉擇。 McDyess averaged 9.6 points and 6.3 rebounds in 77 games during the 2004-05 season, helping the Pistons reach the NBA finals again, and was one of the players who helped them have the best record in the Eastern Conference and reach the conference finals the next two seasons. '04-'05年球季袋鼠在77場比賽中平均攻下9.6分並抓下6.3個籃板，幫助活塞於奪冠隔 年再次闖進總冠軍賽，而且也是接下來兩個球季幫助幫助球隊締造東區最佳戰績並晉級東 區冠軍賽的重要成員之一。 The No. 2 pick overall in 1995 played in just four playoff games before signing with the Pistons, and now has been in 63 postseason games. 這位'95年選秀榜眼在加入活塞前僅有四場的季後賽經驗，而目前他已經是一個擁有63 場季後賽經驗的識途老馬了。 "We're excited about getting this done so that Antonio can help the Pistons compete for championships in the years to come,'' Miller said. Miller說，"我們很興奮能搞定這紙合約，這樣袋鼠在來年就能繼續披著活塞球衣為爭 取總冠軍而努力了。" --
