[外電] JJB被裁了
原文:http://ppt.cc/XNAF
It took the Wolves basically up to the deadline to pare down the roster
before Open Night, but they have finalized the roster heading into the
first game of the season Wednesday night against the Memphis Grizzlies.
在開幕戰前的最後一刻,灰狼終於確定球員名單了
Minnesota waived veteran guard JJ Barea on Monday afternoon to get down
to the 15-man limit hours before the deadline.
JJB掰
“In talking to him and his representatives and where we’re at as an
organization and where JJ is we thought it was best we go in a different
direction,” coach Flip Saunders said Monday. “JJ has been a consummate pro.
He had a great Training Camp and he played really well throughout the
preseason. He’s been very professional and has done everything we’ve
asked of him. We wish him well moving forward.”
老桑:JJB整個訓練營和熱身賽都表現得很好,不過還是要祝他好走
Barea, 30, averaged 10.1 points and 4.1 assists in 194 games with the Wolves.
He played the role of backup to Ricky Rubio throughout his tenure in
Minnesota. That role appeared to change this offseason when the Wolves
signed veteran guard Mo Williams. Williams provides a bit more of a spark
off the bench and has served as a great mentor to the young players on
the team over the last couple months.
JJB在灰狼隊194場留下平均10.1分 4.1助攻的成績。在暑假簽下Mo的時候JJB就差不多掰
了,Mo能做得比JJB好
“It was a situation with Mo Williams coming in where he didn’t feel
he was going to get as much of an opportunity,” Saunders said.
“We also feel like Glenn Robinson III has a chance to be a really good player
in this league.”
不裁掉JJB,Mo上場時間會不夠,我們也還有Glenn Robinson要養
Saunders made it clear that the team is building toward the future.
Though he wants to compete at a high level this season, he seems to know
what he has with his current roster.
"As an organization when we make decisions like this we go in a certain
direction he said. “We have six players with two years or less experience
and we've made that commitment.”
老桑:這個決定一切都是為了未來著想。
As for the rotation the Wolves will use this season? That remains up in the
air. Saunders normally uses a standard eight-man rotation, though he alluded
to the fact that that could change this year. He figures to start Ricky Rubio
Kevin Martin, Andrew Wiggins, Thad Young, and Nikola Pekovic, with guys like
Corey Brewer, Chase Budinger, Mo Williams, and Gorgui Dieng serving as the
primary reserves. That said he might further extend that rotation with the way
Anthony Bennett, Shabazz Muhammad, and Zach LaVine played in the preseason.
先發將會是:Rubio, Martin, Wiggins, Young, Peko
Brewer, Budinger, Mo, Dieng也將會進入主要輪替
Bennett, Muhammad, LaVine要看他們表現
“We had a pretty interesting exercise before practice,” Saunders said.
“I gave each guy a piece of paper and a pencil and I told him to write down
how many minutes they wanted to play. I added them up and I had 380 minutes.
There are only 240 minutes [to go around]. I have to find a way to cut 140
minutes.”
老桑玩了一個有趣的小遊戲,他要大家寫下自己期望的上場時間,把大家希望的上場時間
加起來的和是380分鐘。
Though he wouldn’t confirm his rotation other whether he plans to start
Andrew Wiggins against the Grizzlies on Wednesday night, Saunders made one
thing abundantly clear. “We’re moving forward with who we have right now,”
he said. “We’re not in a situation right now where we’re looking who’s
available. We’re moving forward with who we have right now.”
Wiggins開幕戰不一定會先發
Ricky Rubio appears more than ready to go. He said while the team enjoyed
the time leading up to the regular season, it is excited to play games
that actually matter “It was a great preseason and now is when it counts,”
Rubio said. “It was really fun to win five games out of seven in the
preseason, but we want to win games now. It’s time.”
Rubio覺得熱身賽打出五勝二敗真是太爽了
Saunders seemed overall pretty satisfied with the way the preseason played
out. “We played really hard and we have to continue to do that,” he said.
“Are we going to be a team that wins five out of every seven games? I don’t
think anyone is predicting that. … I believe we’re going to play hard
every night. That’s the No. 1 thing we’re trying to do.”
老桑:沒人預期我們能打好,我們只能每晚全力以赴!
