Re: [外電] Taylor says Garnett likes teacher's …

※ 引述《jerod (KG4MVP)》之銘言：
: http://www.startribune.com/wolves/story/1309082.html
: Last month, before the NBA draft and before Timberwolves owner Glen Taylor
: traveled to China, he had a talk with Kevin Garnett.
: We're going to go younger, Taylor told his star, which might make it more
: difficult to become a title contender.

Taylor在選秀及去中國度蜜月前曾經跟KG談過球隊年輕化的事情

: "I thought he might say, 'Well, if you're going younger, I guess I don't want
: to play here,' " Taylor recalled Tuesday. "But he said, 'I'd be a good
: teacher. Guys taught me and helped me. I'd like to do that.' "

Taylor對於KG的反應非常驚訝，因為KG並沒有提出轉隊的要求，他反而認為自己可以幫助
小狼們成長

: Taylor, who returned over the weekend, talked about a range of subjects
: Tuesday, including the team's decision to field offers for Garnett before the
: June 28 NBA draft. He admitted Boston was the Wolves' most serious trading
: partner. And while not ruling out a Garnett trade, Taylor said the team is
: now focused on altering its roster in other ways.

他也提到了許多關於球隊的事情，包括了KG的交易
在眾多傳聞中，他承認最有可能發生的是與Boston的交易
即便是現在，Taylor仍然沒有鬆口說KG一定會留下來，但是灰狼也在想辦法調整隊形

: Taylor also said he doesn't think any fence-mending is needed between Garnett
: and the organization.
: "It concerned him," Taylor said of Garnett and the trade talk. "He said to
: me, 'I'd always assumed I was going to play here forever and ever.' "

Taylor不認為最近的傳聞傷害了KG跟球隊之間的關係
KG也曾跟Taylor說他認為他會一直待在灰狼

: Garnett could not be reached for comment.
: When the Wolves report to training camp in Turkey in October, the team likely
: will be filled with young talent.
: That group will include second-year players Randy Foye and Craig Smith,
: third-year player Rashad McCants and first-round draft pick Corey Brewer.

十月的訓練營裡面，灰狼將會有一群充滿潛力的年輕球員報到，像是Foye, RMC,
 Smith and Brewer

: "I think Kevin is positive about this," Taylor said. "It's not in his mind
: that we're going to be a poor team. I think his thoughts are maybe we'll be a
: better team with the younger guys."

Taylor覺得KG對這個情況是滿意的，並不會因為球隊都是一些年輕小伙子而認為沒有
競爭力

: Taylor said Garnett was pleased with the deal that brought Juwan Howard to
: the Wolves in exchange for guard Mike James.

KG也很滿意Howard的那筆交易

: More changes are possible. Kevin McHale, the Wolves vice president of
: basketball operations, has said several times he would like to continue
: changing his roster via trade. Tuesday, Taylor said that process was proving
: more difficult than anticipated. Still, the Wolves owner hopes at least one
: more trade is possible.

Taylor希望之後能至少在完成另外一筆交易來改變球隊的體質

: The drafting of Brewer would appear to make veteran Trenton Hassell the
: player most likely to be moved.

選來Brewer可能會把Hassell擠走

: Veteran Ricky Davis might be attractive to some teams, both for his ability
: to score and expiring contract. But the Wolves could gamble that Davis would
: be inspired by a salary drive to play his best basketball. Troy Hudson has
: asked for a trade, but his salary would seem to make that all but impossible.

Davis是個有吸引力的籌碼，不過因為今年是合約年，Davis也是可能會大爆發的
雖然THud要求交易，他的薪資跟表現讓這個要求變的不太可能

: Taylor said the team will wait to dabble in free agency -- the Wolves have
: both a bi-annual and midlevel exception -- until it sees how the attempts at
: trades work out.

灰狼還有 MLE 跟 bi-annual可以用在FA上面，不過他們打算試著達成交易後再考慮使用
MLE跟bi-annual的可能性

: But a trade of Garnett?
: "Do I think it's going to happen? No," Taylor said. "Do we feel we have to do
: one? No. Are we willing to live with what we have, with Kevin and making some
: minor changes? Yes. But if a team came along, if we saw the right thing and
: it made sense? Maybe. But I don't see it."

關於交易KG
Taylor不覺得KG會被交易 也不認為需要交易
對他來說現在的灰狼只要在體質上做改變就可以接受了
即便如此 交易KG的可能性還是有的
不過並沒有任何一隊有足夠的籌碼來達成KG的交易
