Allan Houston 也要復出 @@
Houston working out with eye on returning to NBA
By Chris Broussard
ESPN The Magazine
Reggie Miller is not the only former All-Star shooting guard considering a
comeback. Allan Houston, one of the deadliest jump shooters of the past 15
years, is also looking to return to the NBA.
"It's something I'd like to do,'' Houston said in a telephone interview
Thursday morning. "It's just a matter of getting myself back in game shape
and getting used to playing again.''
Houston, 36, was forced into retirement in October 2005 after an arthritic
left knee limited him to just 70 games over the previous two seasons. In
2002-2003, his last full season, he led the Knicks and finished 10th in the
NBA with a career-high 22.5 point scoring average.
Houston, who worked as an NBA analyst for ESPN last season, said he has been
working out hard for more than a month and that his knee feels great. He
recently played in high-caliber (though not NBA level) summer league games in
New York and plans to work out in Las Vegas with a personal basketball
trainer later this month.
He would not discuss which, if any, teams have shown interest in signing him,
but sources say Dallas and Cleveland headline the list of interested clubs.
Boston, which has contacted Miller about a comeback, Phoenix, Miami and
perhaps San Antonio, are also teams that would be logical destinations.
Out of courtesy, Houston informed Knicks owner James L. Dolan of his comeback
attempt earlier this summer, and Dolan has allowed him to train at the
Knicks' practice facility. It is not clear whether the Knicks would be
interested in signing him, but Houston, who lives in nearby Connecticut, said
he would not rule out a return to the place he played the last nine seasons
of his 12-year career.
Houston, a career 17.3 point scorer, was still near the top of his game when
he retired. He averaged 18.5 points in 50 games during the 2003-04 season,
and while visibly struggling through knee pain, still managed to average 11.9
points in 26 minutes during his 20-game stint in 2004-05.
However, the two-time all-star and 2000 Olympic gold medalist is not
expecting to return as a 20-point scorer.
"I'm looking to play a supporting role to some of these great young stars,''
Houston said. "More of a leadership role, someone who can add experience and
stability late in games. I don't expect my scoring and my minutes to be what
they used to, but at the same time, I'm not looking to just be a decoy out
there. I'd like to have some kind of role.''
