As Chauncey Billups prepares to have his name entered into the NBA’s amnesty
waiver wire, he has a message for teams considering putting in a bid to
secure him for the rest of the season: You’ll regret it.
槍西:特赦後想把我撿走的球隊你會後悔
He wants the freedom of free agency to choose a contender, Billups says. As
one of the game’s great leaders, and gentlemen, Billups warns that player
will be a distant memory should a team claim him off the amnesty waiver wire.
槍西想成為自由球員
“I’m tired of being the glue guy,” Billups told Yahoo! Sports by phone on
Saturday afternoon. “I’m tired of being viewed as the good guy. After a
while, you just kind of get taken advantage of in these situations. I’ve
been known as a leader, and I am a leader, but a leader can be as disruptive
as he can be productive, especially when you carry a strong voice and people
rally around you. This is about me now. This is about me, and teams should
know that right now.”
槍西:我累了。我不要再收好人卡。

Chauncey Billups says he won't be the good guy anymore after he was waived by
the Knicks.
(AP)
The Knicks picked up Billups’ $14.2 million option for the 2011-’12 season,
but used the new amnesty provision on him so that they could sign free agent
Tyson Chandler. Under the new rule, the team that offers to pay the highest
portion of his contract can secure him in a blind bidding process. The Knicks
will be left to pay for the remainder of the deal.
If Billups goes unclaimed, he can sign as a free agent. The Miami Heat would
be a strong possibility for him, among several contenders. Billups, 34, has
been one of his generation’s great leaders and players, turning the Detroit
Pistons and Denver Nuggets into major contenders. Billups won a title with
Detroit in 2004.
“I just don’t deserve the treatment that I’ve continually gotten,”
Billups said. “Historically, these things never happen to the supposed
great players and good guys. They continually happen to me, and it gets old.
Listen, I feel I’ve been blessed in the game, and I’ve been given back, but
these things start to wear on you. But there’s not another guy in history
who keeps dealing with this, getting thrown into these things to make the
money right. I really believe it’s because people take my kindness and
professionalism for weakness. They think I’ll be OK with this. I won’t be
OK with this. I’ve saved my money. I may just retire if I don’t get my
freedom here.
槍西:我值得更好的對待~(菸)
"這種鳥事不應該一直發生在我這種好球員身上"
大家吃我夠夠,以為我都能接受發生的一切,他們錯了!
"老子可是有在存錢,如果不給我自由,我退休給你看"
“I want my freedom. My goal is to control my own destiny. And as you’ve
seen in my career, I’ve never been in a position to do that. I know some
teams out there are saying, ‘Oh, Chauncey will be great in mentoring’ and I
’m tired of that. I’ve got a few good years left to play, and I’m not
trying to come in and sit on the bench, or be a mentor. I’m not going to be
that guy. I want to go somewhere and win. I want to choose.”
槍西:我要自由!我要掌握自己的命運!有些隊會說我是個好老師~但我累了
"我巔峰期剩下幾年,我不願意再繼續坐板凳,或是當個小老師
我要去個能贏球的地方!我要自己選要待的球隊拉!
