COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – Featuring Olympic gold medalist Jason Kidd of the Dallas Mavericks and four 2004 Olympians, USA Basketball Men’s Senior National Team managing director Jerry Colangelo today announced the 12-players who will represent the United States in the Aug. 8-24 Olympic Summer Games in Beijing, China. The player selections were approved by the USA Basketball Executive Committee, and will be nominated to the United States Olympic Committee to participate in the 2008 Olympic Games. 今天奧運代表隊的教練們，宣佈奧運的12人名單，Kidd是其中一人。 “It is a great honor on behalf of the Dallas Mavericks to represent my country in the 2008 Olympic Games,” Kidd said. “I look forward to the challenge of winning a gold medal.” "能夠代表小牛以及我的國家出賽，是一個很大的榮耀，我期待能夠拿到冠軍!" Kidd說。 Named to the 2008 USA Basketball Senior National Team were: Kidd, Carmelo Anthony (Denver Nuggets); Carlos Boozer (Utah Jazz); Chris Bosh (Toronto Raptors); Kobe Bryant (Los Angeles Lakers); Dwight Howard (Orlando Magic); LeBron James (Cleveland Cavaliers); Chris Paul (New Orleans Hornets); Tayshaun Prince (Detroit Pistons); Michael Redd (Milwaukee Bucks); Dwyane Wade (Miami Heat); and Deron Williams (Utah Jazz). 12人名單--Kidd,Melo,Boozer,Bosh,Kobe,Howard,LBJ,CP3,Prince,Redd,Wade,Deron。 Duke University Hall of Fame coach Mike Krzyzewski is head coach of the USA Senior Team program. Serving as assistant coaches are Syracuse University and Hall of Fame coach Jim Boeheim, New York Knicks head mentor Mike D’ Antoni and Portland Trail Blazers head coach Nate McMillan. 杜克的名人堂教練，K教練，是擔任美國隊總教練的位置。 “This has been, to say the least, an extremely difficult selection process. The 33 players who committed to be part of the USA Senior National Team program and have been involved in our various training camps and competitions the past two summers deserve recognition and acknowledgment for their contributions and for their commitment to their country,” said Colangelo. "選出這12人非常非常的困難，33個選手在這兩個暑假，經過一次又一次的訓練，比賽，，經過評估他們的貢獻度，這才選出最終12人。"Colangelo說。 “Whatever I say will not fully describe just how difficult this selection process has been. We knew it would be difficult when we began the building of the Senior National Team program. It has become obvious that it would be in the best interest of the team, the players and coaches, to select the 12 players prior to our June 28-29 mini-camp so we could begin the process of gelling and getting the team’s focus set. "這次競爭的難度，並不是用說的就可以說出來的。大家都知道，一開始總是最困難的，不過這也是最有趣的地方，選12人加入6月28.29的集訓營，然後就可以專注目標。" “The 12 players selected have incredible talent, and more importantly, we think this team has excellent leadership; great versatility and balance; and very good chemistry which are critical parts in building a great team. I believe this team is a team all Americans can and will be proud of,” added Colangelo. "12個球員都有很高的能力，而且更重要的是，領導能力，這支球隊的領導能力，根本就高到爆表。相信在比賽危急的時候，會有很好的化學變化。" "我相信這隻球隊，會成為美國人的驕傲。"Colangelo說。 “I’m excited about the players who comprise this team. The selections were very difficult and something we’ve been working toward since we initially got the Senior National Team together in the 2006 summer. Unfortunately we are limited to a roster of 12 players and we had incredible commitment for the 33 players in our Senior Team program,” said Krzyzewski, who has directed the team the part two summers. "我相當興奮。選擇的確很困難，我們甚至從2006夏天就開始了。可惜的是，我們只能從 33個人中選出12人。"K教練說。 “Our team has excellent athleticism and great versatility. We have players who are experienced in the international game thanks to the last two summers’ training and competitions. I feel really good where we are, we have the foundation in but we have a lot work ahead.” "我們的球隊的人都身強體壯。我們有些球員也經過了一些國際賽的洗禮。我真的覺得很好。雖然我們有很好的基礎，可是我們還是必須努力才行。" “The past two summers’ experiences will definitely help our team. As we have learned, the international teams we will face in Beijing are also extremely talented and they play very well as a team. Our Senior National Team program has helped us achieve confidence, continuity and excellent chemistry too. This summer’s Olympics are going to be an unbelievable competition,” stated Krzyzewski. "前兩年夏天的經驗，絕對可以幫助美國隊。能夠去北京的都是很好的球隊。今年的奧運，競爭的強度，將前所未見。"K教練說。 Of the 12 selected players, six were part of the 2006 USA Basketball Men's World Championship Team, and eight were part of the 2007 FIBA Americas Championship that qualified the U.S. for the 2008 Olympics. Three players – Anthony, Howard and James, were members of both teams. Players on the 2006 USA Basketball Men's World Championship Team were: Anthony; Bosh; Howard; James; Paul; and Wade. Members of last summer’s FIBA Americas Championship squad were: Anthony; Bryant; Howard; James; Kidd; Prince; Redd; and Williams. 12個人當中，有六個是2006年世錦賽冠軍的成員之一，八個是2007FIBA的冠軍。 Kidd, at 35 years old, will be the veteran leader of the USA team. A member of the 2000 U.S. Olympic Team that finished 8-0 and captured the gold medal in Sydney, Australia, Kidd has played on eight USA Basketball teams and boasts of a perfect 44-0 record at senior level competitions. Kidd雖然已經35歲，可是他的經驗絕對可以領導著美國隊。還記得嗎?2000年奧運冠軍代表隊的成員之一。Kidd打過8支美國隊，戰績是傲人的44勝0敗。 Kidd, along with 2004 Olympians Anthony, Boozer, James and Wade, will look to add their names to an elite USA group of multiple-time Olympians which currently consists of 13 men (David Robinson-1988, 1992 and 1996; Charles Barkley-1992, 1996; Patrick Ewing-1984, 1992; Burdette Haldorson-1956, 1960; William Hougland-1952, 1956; Michael Jordan-1984, 1992; Robert Kurland-1948, 1952; Karl Malone-1996, 1992; Chris Mullin-1984, 1992; Gary Payton-1996, 2000; Scottie Pippen-1992, 1996; Mitch Richmond-1988, 1996; and John Stockton-1992, 1996. Kidd跟隊友們期待可以跟偉大的前輩們齊名。 The average age of the 12 players named to the 2008 U.S. team by the end of the ‘08 Olympics will be 26.08 years old. The USA team at the FIBA Americas Championship averaged 26.00, the USA team at the 2006 FIBA World Championship averaged 24.50 years of age, while the USA team at the 2004 Olympics averaged 23.60 years of age. 這12個球員的平均年齡是26.08歲，2006FIBA冠軍隊則是24.50歲，2004奧運代表是23.60歲 -- 好好加油! -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 163.25.118.139
