Alonzo Mourning Announces His Retirement

MIAMI, 01/22/09 – After a sterling NBA career that spanned 15 seasons and
saw him capture an NBA championship with the HEAT in 2006, seven All-Star
berths and twice being named the Defensive Player of the Year, Miami HEAT
great Alonzo Mourning announced his retirement.

邁阿密，01/22/09
    經歷了優異的15年NBA生涯，並且能目睹他在06年和熱火一起拿下NBA冠軍，
(註：這是洋蔥!這第一句讓我蠻感動的)七屆全明星球員、兩次年度最佳防守球員
('98-'99，'99-00)的熱火巨星Mourning宣布退休。

    Mourning, who also captured a gold medal with the United States Senior
National team at the 2000 Olympics, appeared in 838 games with the HEAT,
Charlotte Hornets and New Jersey Nets and averaged 17.1 points, 8.5 rebounds,
2.81 blocked shots, 1.1 assists and 31.0 minutes while shooting 52.7 percent
from the floor and 69.2 percent from the foul line during his career.
He finished his professional career with 14,311 points, 7,137 rebounds
and 2,356 blocks (10th all-time in NBA history).

   Zo和美國國家隊在雪梨奧運摘下金牌，生涯838場比賽裡待過熱火、黃蜂、籃網三隊，
生涯平均得分17.1分、8.5籃板、2.81次火鍋(註：生涯平均下來還將近三個!)、1.1次助
攻、；此外平均每場出賽達31分鐘的ZO也留下了52%的投籃命中率、以及69%的罰球命中率
的數據。晨星以生涯總得分14,311分、7,137個籃板、以及2,356個火鍋(NBA史上第十)，
結束了15個球季的職業生涯。

   Mourning, who was originally acquired by the HEAT from the Hornets on
Nov.3,1995 and re-signed as a free agent on Mar.1, 2005, is Miami's all-time
leader in games played with 593. The 6'10", 261-pound center also tops the
HEAT's all-time lists in points scored (9,459), minutes played (17,700),
free throws made (2,558) and attempted (3,896), offensive rebounds (1,505),
defensive rebounds (3,302), total rebounds (4,807), blocked shots (1,625)
and double-figure scoring efforts (442). Additionally, he finished his career
as the all-time leader in blocked shots in Hornets history with 684 in his
three seasons. Mourning also ranks as the HEAT's all-time postseason leader
in games played (82), offensive rebounds (137), defensive rebounds (386),
total rebounds (523) and blocks (171).

  95年11月3號，熱火透過與黃蜂的球員交易迎來了Moruning；經歷過03年投奔籃網後，
05年成為自由球員的Zo與熱火簽約，再次回到邁阿密。莫寧在熱火的593場出賽是隊史
出賽場次的保持人。  這位6呎10吋、261磅的中鋒也在其他項目刷新隊史新高(洗版!)，
分別是總得分9,459分、出賽總時(17,700分)、罰球紀錄(2,558/3,896)、進攻籃板及
防守籃板(1,505/3,302)、總籃板(4,807)、火鍋(1,625)以及442次的double-double紀錄。
另外，Zo在黃蜂短短的三季時間，也以684個火鍋打破黃蜂隊史紀錄。
 而提到季後賽，莫寧也理所當然地在隊史各項數據瘋狂洗版(洗版魂!)：82場出賽、
進攻、防守及總籃板數(137/386/523)、以及171次阻攻。

  Originally selected with the second overall pick in the 1992 NBA Draft
by the Charlotte Hornets and a member of the 1992-93 NBA All-Rookie team,
Mourning enjoyed his finest seasons as a member of the HEAT.
   Mourning made an immediate impact in his first season in Miami, becoming
the first HEAT player selected to play in an All-Star Game in 1995-96.
He was named the NBA's Defensive Player of the Year and earned First Team
All-Defensive Team honors in both the 1998-99 and 1999-00 seasons after leading
the league in blocked shots each season.
   He still ranks as the only player in HEAT history to be selected to the
NBA All-Defensive First Team. During the 1998-99 season he earned
First Team All-NBA honors and the following season he received
Second Team All-NBA honors and finished third in the MVP voting.

    92年第二順位進入黃蜂，同時是當年新秀第一隊的Zo，很享受在熱火度過生涯裡
最精采的那幾年。在邁阿密的第一個球季，Zo就帶來了大驚奇，成為隊史首位獲選參加
明星賽('95-'96)的球員。而98-00的兩季裡，Zo在聯盟火鍋排行榜上的逞凶，
也讓他連續獲選年度最佳防守球員及防守第一隊的殊榮('98-00)
    莫寧也是隊史首位獲選防守第一隊的球員。'98-'99球季他同時也獲選
NBA第二隊，並在次季年度MVP評選裡排名第三。

   In addition to his exploits on the court, Mourning is revered as a
community leader for his tireless commitment off the court. For his efforts
he received the NBA's J.Walter Kennedy Citizenship Award for the 2001-02 season
and twice was a recipient of the NBA Community Assist Award(July 2006 and
July 2008).
   He founded Alonzo Mourning Charities to raise money for various
organizations, including the Overtown Youth Center, that support abused
andneglected children as well as children who live in at-risk situations.
   Zo's Summer Groove, his foundation's flagship fund raising event has
raised an estimated $7 million in its 12 years and Zo's Fund For Life,
which he formed during the 2001-02 season, has raised $2 million for kidney
research and to help provide medication to families that cannot afford it.
   Zo's Fund for Life was formed after he learned he was diagnosed with
focal glomerulosclerosis, a degenerative kidney ailment at the start of
the 2000-01 season.
   He later would have kidney transplant surgery on Dec.19,2003 before
returning to the NBA for the 2004-05 season.

   除了球場上的成就，球場外的Zo因致力於社區活動也受到大家敬重。
我們從他分別獲頒J.W.K公民獎(01-02球季)、NBA年度社區服務獎(06&08)就可以看出
Zo對公益活動不遺餘力的付出。
   莫寧也以他的名字建立了一個為許多組織募款的慈善機構，服務對象也包含
Overton青年中心，該中心致力協助處於危險環境中受虐與被忽略的兒童。Zo舉辦的
夏日搖擺(Summer Groove)活動，則是他基金會每年度最重要的募款活動，
   創立至今十二年，這項活動估計已募得700萬元；而Zo在01-02球季創立的
Zo's Fund For Life基金會，則已募得兩百萬元，這些募款投注於腎臟研究以及
協助提供藥物治療給那些無法負擔費用的家庭。
   這個基金會是在00-01季初，Zo被醫生診斷出罹患名為腎小球硬化的疾病後所成立，
腎小球硬化屬於一種腎器官退化的疾病。而不久後，莫寧為了能夠繼續打球，
在03年12月中接受了腎移植手術，這使他能在04-05球季，重返NBA的球場。


-------------------------
對一個第一次看NBA的國中生來說，Jordan並不吸引人，而是看把公牛打得整場
只拿49分的熱火，那個站在油漆區逞凶的矮個中鋒更是吸引我所有的目光。

  Zo,PJ,Monster,Dan,Timmy，是我第一次看NBA就迷上的幾個球員。
而熱火那塊黑色的油漆區，對進攻球員來說，似乎是連想在裡面多留個幾秒都很難的地方
因為總有一支手在你覺得這次出手可以得分的同時，飛出來把你的球很狠打出油漆區。
讓每個進攻球員做動作時，都要留意那隻禁區凶器在哪邊。
那個生猛有力的小平頭中鋒，叫做Mourning。
  隨著歲月，熱火油漆區變成黃色的，但不變的是，那隻大巴掌抓火鍋的timing
依舊準確無比。在禁區裡永遠的硬漢，打死不退的防守意志，是熱火在90年代-2000年初
以來，最響亮的金字招牌。那個巴鍋的身影、穩定的小鉤手以及那振臂狂吼(和打架)的
身影，會是熱火球迷最難忘也最感動的回憶。 Let's Welcome the Starting Lineups,


  At Center, 6'10",from Georgetown, Alooooonzooooooo Mourniiiing !!!
