這個就不是rumor了

Houston Rockets Former Sacramento Kings assistant coach Elston Turner tells FOX
26 he has decided to withdraw from consideration for the Kings head coaching
job and accept a position as an assistant on Rick Adelman's staff with the
Houston Rockets.
Turner was one of six candidates interviewed for the Sacramento head coaching
job last month but no decision has been reached by the Kings.
"I just chose to get on with Rick," Turner told FOX 26. "I thought it was
unfair to keep Rick waiting while he was trying to assemble his staff. So I
made my decision to come with him."
Turner says he has yet to sign his Rockets contract but considers that a
formality.
"We just have to work out the deal and that will be the icing on the cake,"
Turner said.
Turner was an assistant to Adelman in Sacramento for six years. When Adelman
was introduced as the Rockets head coach he said then Turner was his No. 1
choice to join his staff.
"I know what he likes and what he he expects, " Turner said. "I am confident
I can give him that. We can do some good things there that will not only
excite the team and the organization but the fans as well.
"I feel great about it. In my opinion, out of all the jobs that were available,
this is the best one."
Turner believes he has a lot to offer the Rockets organization.
"Work ethic for sure," Turner said. "I'm precise and meticulous. I believe in
being prepared and paying attention to detail. I have been involved with the
NBA since 1981. I will be able to bring insight and leadership."
Turner was an assistant coach for the CBA's Quad City Thunder and a
player-coach with the league's Chicago Rockers before going to work for the
Portland Trail Blazers. He worked in Portland for four years before joning
Adelman and the Kings in 2001.
Turner, a 6-5 guard, played eight NBA seasons in the NBA, three with Dallas,
three with Denver and two with Chicago. He averaged 4.7 points, 2.7 rebounds
and 1.8 assists in 505 career games in the NBA.
Dallas chose Turner in the second round of the 1981 NBA Draft. As a senior at
Ole Miss, he led the Rebels to their first-ever NCAA Tournament appearance in
1981.
Rockets officials could not be reached for comment Friday night.
所以Adelman的第一個助理教練出爐了，大家歡迎他吧！他是以前國王的防守教練。
