Utah Jazz: 13 years later, Raul Lopez returns to the fold 13年後，「那個人」回來了 Former Utah Jazz point guard Raul Lopez is at the Zions Bank Basketball Campus this week as part of Quin Snyder’s coaching staff. 那個人加入了阿Q的教練團隊 There was a familiar face on the scene as the Utah Jazz tipped off training camp on Tuesday. Former Jazzzman Raul Lopez has been at the Zions Bank Basketball Campus, putting in work with the likes of Ricky Rubio and Alec Burks as they prepare for their 2018-19 campaign. 那個人在籃球訓練營幫盧一球跟AB準備下一球季 13 years after his NBA career reached its abrupt conclusion, Lopez has officially re-joined the club with whom he played 113 games from 2003 to 2005 as a player development coach. 舊將在2003-2005幫爵士打了113場比賽，現在回來當教練 “We all know Raul from when he was drafted here and often times, similar to DeSagana Diop, we’ve had situations where we felt like, particularly a guy that’s a former player, has a perspective that they can add,” Snyder said after practice. “We wanted Raul to be a part of the group.” Snyder stopped short of breaking down Lopez’s work schedule, but made clear the fact that he’s with the team and will be around throughout the coming season. 阿Q講了一些場面話，類似「他是舊將，他很好」之類的 Of course, this isn’t Lopez’s first return to Salt Lake City since his playing days. He spent time working with Rubio, a former teammate from his days with the Spanish national team, during the Jazz point-man’s late hot streak last season. “He gives me a lot of confidence,” Rubio told the Deseret News in January. 舊將以前曾經跟盧一球同在西班牙國家隊，盧一球也講了些場面話 Although he’s largely known in these parts as the player the Jazz drafted instead of Tony Parker, Lopez enjoyed a lengthy career in the best leagues in Europe. Along the way, he also found success on the international circuit, capturing a silver medal with Rubio and Team Spain at the 2008 Olympics and a gold at EuroBasket 2009. 當年爵士放掉Tony Parker選他，然後他大部分時間在歐洲打球 Lopez’s earlier tenure in Utah was short, but he was a big part of the one of the Jazz franchise’s more memorable teams — the 2003-04 unit that finished 42-40 and nearly made the playoffs despite being picked to win just seven games. It was an impressive feat for a team led by the likes of Andrei Kirilenko, Matt Harpring, Carlos Arroyo and Raja Bell. He averaged a respectable 6.5 points and four assists per game in his Jazz career. 舊將曾經是2003-2004那個破爛陣容的一員─有AK、哈普林、阿洛油、辣椒標等等─ 平均可以怒砍6.5分，奮力傳出4助攻 Lopez finally retired in 2016 at the age of 36 after spending his last five seasons with Bilbao Basket of the Spanish ACB League. He remained with Bilbao for two more years as sports director, but stepped down from that post in June amid the team’s financial difficulties and relegation to Spain’s second division. 簡單的說，舊將原本待的球隊快倒了(不排除解散?)而且被降級，所以舊將回來討生活 --
