Jermaine O'Neal has surgery, out eight weeks

小歐接受手術，大約八週後歸隊。

When it comes to the Boston Celtics big men, change hasn't been a
good thing all season.

當談到波士頓C's的長人時，整個賽季都不斷的有所波動。

So when the news spread that Jermaine O'Neal's status with the team
was changing, well, fearing the worst was understandable.

因此當這消息傳出來的時候，小歐在球隊的地份發生了變化
那麼，最壞的擔心是可以理解的。

Danny Ainge, Boston's president of basketball operations, told reporters
after Friday night's 101-97 loss to Dallas, said that O'Neal underwent
arthroscopic surgery on his left knee and would be out for 6-8 weeks.

總裁安吉在週五面對達拉斯101-97輸球後告訴記者，他說小歐接了左膝關節鏡
的手術，並需要6-8個星期。

"The first part of April is our hope (for O'Neal to return)," Ainge said.

安吉說："我們希望小歐能在四月初回來"

After a battery of tests from local and national medical experts, the C's
decided earlier that they would try and rest the knee and bring him back
to the fold in about a month.

在經過醫生的專業檢查後，C's之前的決定，是試著讓小歐在一個月裡好好休養
他的膝蓋再歸隊。

Ainge said the knee was not responding the way they wanted it to, which
is when O'Neal reconsidered having surgery during the season.

安吉說膝蓋並沒有達到球團所預期的狀況，只好讓小歐在這賽季重新接受手術

The surgery that O'Neal will be having is the same surgery the C's had
given some consideration to him having earlier this season.

賽季剛開始時，球團曾考慮要不要讓小歐進行相同手術。

"Jermaine had seen other doctors," Ainge said. "And it's not a - Jermaine
couldn't be given 100 % assurance that it was going to fix everything,
so he was just trying to fix it just by resting and building up the glutes
and quads that we talked about last time."

安吉說："小歐曾經看過其他醫生，但不能給予小歐百分百的保證說會解
決一切問題，所以我們談到最後一次，醫生只是試著讓需要休息和增強肌
肉力量來解決問題。"

But it was becoming painfully clear to both the C's and O'Neal that the
injury was not getting any better.

這個手術問題已經造C's和小歐(的傷勢並好沒有轉)的痛苦。

Because he has had knee issues in past, the Celtics had MRIs taken before
signing him.

因為他之前的膝蓋問題，C's在簽下小歐之前還曾對他做過磁核共振。

"They've worsened from the time of what we saw in the summer," said
Ainge, referring to the MRIs taken then and now.

安吉："從現在夏天我們看見時，問題就開始惡化了"

安吉指是當時的磁核共振和現在這個時候。

The concern was that the knee would have some swelling with rigorous
physical activity.

值得注意的是做些嚴格的體能活動時膝蓋會有點腫脹。

But there was inflammation even without him working out.

但也會有發炎的反應，甚至無法讓小歐無法解決。

"Even without activity, the swelling was there and that's when he
decided to change the course of the game plan," Ainge said.

安吉"甚至沒有練習的活動時膝蓋還是會腫脹，這時候小歐決定改變
計畫"

Rivers said he didn't find out until Thursday that O'Neal was going to
have surgery soon.

河流說直到星期四他自已才知道小歐要接受手術。

"I thought it was the right decision," Rivers said. "I wish he had moved
a little earlier on it, but I think JO had to make sure he wanted to do
it. And he exhausted every avenue, which I thought he should've done because
it's a tough decision."

"我認為接受手術是一個正確的決定"河流說：

"我希望這個手術能在前些時就進行，但我覺得必需小歐有這個意願才行"

"他透過各種管道得到諮商，我想他應該已經準備好這個決定了，因為
這個是一個相當艱難的決定。"

Celtics center Kendrick Perkins can relate to what Jermaine O'Neal is
contending with now.

Perkins可以理解小歐現在在為什麼奮鬥。

A six-time all-star, O'Neal came to Boston knowing his role would be
reduced just because of the shear number of superstar talent the C's have.

6屆的全明星，小歐來到波士頓知道他所扮演的角色與過去相比將不再吃重
只是因為C's擁有更多超級明星。

While disappointed that he won't be with them for the bulk of the regular
season, O'Neal's teammates are encouraged by the idea that he'll return
just in time for the playoffs.

雖然對他不能與隊友參與大部份常規賽而感到失望，小歐的隊友們還是以他會為
季後賽而趕回來的想法受到鼓舞。

"A guy like Jermaine is a great guy, great addition to the team," said
Kendrick Perkins, who made his first start of the season against the
Mavericks and finished with 11 points and 13 rebounds. "To know he's
coming back in a month or so is great. "We could use him in the playoffs,
everybody and every game."

"一個像小歐這麼棒的傢伙，加入到球隊"

本賽季第一次先發拿下11分13個籃板的Perkins說：

"要知道他可以在一個月左右回來是很偉大的，我們可以讓他好好在季後賽發揮"

"每一個人、每一場球賽都是這樣"

If O'Neal is back in time for the playoffs, he will be hard-pressed to
break through and get meaningful minutes

如果小歐在季後賽中即時回來，他將捉襟見肘的去爭取他自已的上場時間。

While O'Neal is out, Kendrick Perkins will re-establish himself as the
team's starting center. Shaquille O'Neal will continue to use his muscle
to overpower people. And don't forget about rookie Semih Erden who has
done a really solid job when called upon at the last minute.

當小歐不在，KP將重新站上球隊的先發中鋒，Shaq將繼續使用他的肌肉來對壓制
其他人，而且不要忘了新秀Erden，他儘管在最後一分鐘都是紮紮實實的做好他的
工作。

Getting past those players will be difficult for O'Neal, if downright
next to impossible.

要通過這些球員對小歐來講很困難，這簡直不可能。

Still, having another big man available for this final stretch run can
only help the C's

不過有這些長人在是能夠讓C's的總冠軍戰線延長是有幫助的。

"You don't want him to go through surgery," Perkins said. "But it's
great to hear he can return at the end of the season."


Perkins說道："你們不希望他去手術，但我們很高興聽到他可以在季後賽歸隊。"
