Armory to honor America’s service members on Saturday afternoon. 星期六下午，來到首都後，國家隊在華盛頓DC國民兵訓練中心舉行練習賽慰勞軍人。 As part of USA Basketball's Hoops For Troops initiative, a crowd of 3,100 military members and their families attended an open practice as part of the World Basketball Festival, held in partnership with NIKE Inc. 現場約有3100位軍人和他們的家人出席這場公開練習賽--由NIKE贊助的世界籃球嘉年華。 "Its great," said Russell Westbrook. "It’s a great experience to be able to come in and to play in front of the troops. They have done so much for our country and they still do.” 「太棒了！」西河說。「能來到這裡，在軍隊前面打球，這是個很棒的經驗。他們為我們的國家做了許多事，現在仍然持續做著。」 Prior to practice, USA Basketball Women’s National Team members Seimone Augustus, Swin Cash, Maya Moore, Candace Parker and Lindsay Whalen, as well as USA assistant coach Doug Bruno and USA head coach Geno Auriemma, held a clinic for daughters of military members at the same location. 練習賽由女籃球員Seimone Augustus、Swin Cash、Maya Moore、Candace Parker 和Lindsay Whalen，以及美國隊助理教練Doug Bruno和美國隊總教練 Geno Auriemma，慰勞軍人的女性眷屬們 As practice wrapped up, the 12 members of the men's national team and the five available women's national team players received a flag from the uniform of a soldier and an Old Guard challenge coin. 練習結束後，12位男籃國家隊球員與5位女子國家隊球員從穿著制服的軍人手中致贈旗幟和一個紀念幣。 “This is a huge event," said Mike Krzyzewksi, USA and Duke University Hall of Fame head coach. "We invited the chairs of the joint chiefs out for dinner last night with our staff, and so we had a great meal and we shared our thanks. I'm very close friends with Marty Dempsey. Even during this past Duke season, he was at one of our home games and afterwards we met with the NBA to try to help orchestrate today. Today has been in the works for a few months, and I thought it was beautifully done by Nike, the NBA, USA Basketball and of course our military. The exchange of the flags from the people who are actually serving our country on a day to day basis. We were talking about last night, and we thought it was the single biggest gesture that they could give us, in support of us. Taking them, accepting them would be in honor of them. Today was a special day." 「這是個了不起的活動，」教練Krzyzewksi說－他是美國國家隊和杜克大學的總教練。「昨晚我們邀請了主席和首長參謀一起共進晚餐。餐點很棒，我們彼此感謝。我和Marty Dempsey是好朋友。甚至當我在杜克大學執教時，他來看過一次我們主場的球賽，之後我們在NBA相聚，現在我們彼此協助合作。今天將在同一個工作小組共事，我認為在Nike、NBA、USA國家隊和我們的軍隊合作下，這個活動辦得很成功。從這群每天為國家辛勤服務的人們手中交換旗幟。我們昨晚聊關於這些，我們認為這是他們可以給我們的、特別而有意義的手勢，表達他們對我們的支持。拿取並接受旗幟就是向這些軍人致敬。今天是個特別的日子。」 “There’s no greater feeling than performing in front of our soldiers and our troops and stuff like that," said Chris Paul. "Because they go out and protect our freedom day in and day out and the least we can do is come out here, have a little fun and play some ball because when we go to London for the Olympics, this is who we represent. Its not about the last names on the backs of our jerseys, its about that U-S-A on the front.” 「再也沒有比在我們的士兵、軍隊的面前表演更光榮的事了。」CP3說道。「因為他們每天出外夜以繼日保衛我們的自由，我們最少可以做到，來這裡打球，為他們帶來一些樂趣。因為當我們前往倫敦打球，這就是我們所代表的。不只是在我們球衣背後的名字，而且是在前面的U-S-A這三個字。」 "It’s been incredible," chimed in Tyson Chandler. "To play in front of the troops and to see some of the wounded warriors and to get this inspiration before we go over and start this journey, it was just incredible. And it was an honor for us to be able to in front of them.” 「這真是令人難以置信，」拳王附和。「在軍隊面前打，探望受傷的戰士，鼓舞他們，在我們將要踏上這次的旅程之前。這真的太棒了。能在他們前面，對我們來說是種榮耀。」 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 118.169.130.56
