Iverson Ready to Prove Himself in Philly
來源: http://0rz.tw/hUX36
PHILADELPHIA -- A tearful Allen Iverson is happy to be back with the
Philadelphia 76ers.
那個大眼淚汪汪的AI對再次回到七六人感到開心!
Iverson is returning to the franchise where he was an MVP, calling it an
opportunity he couldn't turn down. The 10-time All-Star guard signed a
non-guaranteed deal with the 76ers on Wednesday, and said at the Wachovia
Center that he's ready to prove he can still play.
AI回到了他以前獲得MVP時待的球隊,並稱這次回歸是他絕不能放過的機會。
這名10次全明星於星期三和七六人簽下不保證合約,並在費城主場記者會說:
「我已準備好證明…我還行!」
Iverson
"I want to retire here," Iverson said Thursday.
The 34-year-old Iverson was teary almost from the start of his return news
conference. He said he retired after his ill-fated stint with the Memphis
Grizzlies because he felt like "the basketball part of my life was over."
「我想在這兒退休!」AI星期四時說道。
年過34的AI幾乎在記者會上從頭淚汪汪到尾。他表示,在灰熊痛苦於被限制住他應當
提供的貢獻,他感到他的籃球生涯已經結束,於是退休。
Iverson will play his first game for the 76ers against Denver on Monday.
"Coming back home, all I could think about was the people who made me who I
am," said Iverson, the NBA MVP in 2001, when he led the Sixers to the finals.
AI第一場將是星期一對上金塊。
「這對我來說就是回到家,我腦子想著的都是這些跟我共度過好些年的人。」
這位2001年帶領七六人到冠軍賽的MVP-AI說道。
Philadelphia hasn't won a playoff series since 2003.
In 10 seasons with the Sixers, Iverson posted the highest scoring average in
team history (28.1), was second on the points list (19,583) and holds the
record for 3-pointers (877). He was a seven-time All-Star, won four scoring
titles and two All-Star game MVPs.
He had a bitter parting with the 76ers in December 2006 and was traded to
Denver. He's also played with Detroit and three games this season with the
Grizzlies.
"I always thought it was strange having another uniform," Iverson said. "I
couldn't feel comfortable with another uniform."
七六人自從2003後就從未在季後賽晉級過。
而AI在七六人的10季中,AI在隊史的紀錄有:最高的場均得分(28.1)、
總共得19583分排第二、以及最多三分球877發。並在隊中曾七度入選全明星、
四次得分王、兩次明星賽MVP。
在2006年12月,他和七六人的不愉快而交易到了金塊,之後也在活塞、灰熊打過球。
AI說道:「我始終覺得…穿著其他球隊球衣就是覺得有點怪,
穿著其他球衣就是感到沒那麼舒服。」
Flanked by team president Ed Stefanski, Iverson said he dreamed of returning
to the 76ers.
"I watch other NBA teams. I can't watch the Sixers," he said. "Ever since I
left, I wasn't able to. Not because there was any bitterness, it was just a
feeling I get. I gave everything I had here for 10 years. It was just always
tough for me to watch them, so I didn't."
Iverson was apologetic for his past behavior and said he acted a lot on anger.
"I don't want to prove anyone wrong in this situation. I'm not in it for
that," he said. "If I can help my team win basketball games the way Coach
wants me to help, then I'll be satisfied."
在經理Ed的決定下,AI回到七六人的夢成真了。
AI說:「我什麼比賽都會看,就是無法看七六人的比賽…
自從我離開後…就是無法…並不是覺得看了會痛苦,
但就是有種感覺…我在這付出10年的一切,
讓我就是很難去看著他們打球,所以我不去看。」
(經歷的太多..不是為了之前交易時的不愉快, 而是看了會傷情, 是這個意思吧)
AI對自己以前的一些情緒化、生氣時所做的行為感到抱歉。
「我不是想挑什麼誰對誰錯,如果我做到教練希望我做的,來幫助球隊贏球,
我會很樂意的。」
(我們都知道他希望"教練叫你做"..而不是"教練什麼都不讓你做")
Stefanski said he didn't promise Iverson would start, but added he didn't
bring him back to Philadelphia to serve as a role player.
"I am bringing him back here to help us going forward to win basketball
games," he said.
The Sixers need all the help they can get to avoid falling out of the Eastern
Conference playoff race. The Sixers (5-14) have lost eight straight entering
Saturday's game at Charlotte.
"I want to fit in. I want to be a part of any success we have," Iverson said.
"I just want to be one of the guys. I don't need a whole bunch of praise. I
don't need a whole lot of accolades. I just want to play basketball."
Ed表示他沒有保證AI會先發,但也表示他並不只是要他當個功能性球員。
「我們簽下AI是希望他協助我們更進步、幫我們贏球。」
七六人現在需要所有可能的協助,來避免從季後賽門票的爭奪上落後。
七六人在八連敗、戰績5-14之後,將在星期六面對山貓。
AI說:「我想快點融入,我想在球隊的成功上盡一份力。
我不是希望獲得別人的讚賞而打,我是想打球,就像所有隊友一樣。」
Iverson will not travel to Charlotte. He will practice Sunday and on Monday
pull on his 76ers jersey for the first time since Dec. 6, 2006, in Chicago --
when he refused to play in the fourth quarter of what became his final game
with the team.
AI不會隨隊去打山貓。而將會於星期日和星期一練習,這將是在2006/12/06,
那晚面對公牛,第四節拒絕上場而成為當時最後一場在七六人的比賽後,
首次穿回七六人球衣。
Iverson was the No. 1 overall pick in the 1996 draft, but his 10 turbulent
seasons in Philadelphia were marred by rants about practice, run-ins with
former coach Larry Brown, arrests and a failed rap career.
In one infamous blowup at the end of the 2002 season, he repeated the word
"practice" nearly 20 times during a rambling monologue.
AI是96梯的狀元,但他在費城的10個精彩翻騰的賽季有些污點,如"practice"事件、
和教頭Brown的連續劇、被警察抓過、以及不成功的饒舌唱片經歷。
在02賽季不好的結束後,他在記者會上講了快20次practice。
His returned generated the kind of buzz the Sixers haven't felt in Philly
since he left in 2006. The Sixers said they had 327,657 page views on their
Web site Wednesday once his signing was announced -- up from 36,000 the
previous Wednesday.
The Sixers have not yet sold out Monday's game. His official No. 3 jerseys
are expected to be on sale at the team's merchandise store on Monday.
而他的回歸,颳起了2006年他離開過後從未有的旋風-七六人在星期三簽下AI後,
官網點閱率從前一週三的36,000升到327,657。
星期一他的第一戰門票還沒賣光。而他的最新#3球衣預計在星期一開始銷售。
