How are you enjoying being an assistant coach?
你如何享受當一名助理教練?
I'm enjoying it. It's kind of an easy transition after playing basketball for
so long. It's not playing, but it allows me to stay around the game and stay
a part of it.
我很享受當助理教練。在打這麼久的球之後做轉換很容易。並不是打球,但允許我成為
球賽的一部分。
Were you confident it would go this smoothly?
你很有自信會很順利嗎?
Not at all. I wasn't sure. I don't think I was ever one of those guys who
necessarily always contemplated coaching. It was kind of an opportunity that
presented itself. I was lucky to be able to take advantage of it.
一點也不。我不確定。我不認為我是一位總是深思熟慮的人。這是一個機會,我很幸
運能夠得到這機會。
Now that you've retired, could you imagine going from playing to being away
from basketball cold turkey?
I think I could have. I think it probably would have been a little tougher
transition. That's what's been such a blessing about this, that it made my
transition easier from not playing. Especially coming into the season
expecting to play. Late August was when I really came to peace with the fact
that I wasn't going to be playing this year.
我想我可能可以。我想這可能有點難轉換。我很幸運,這使得不打球後能夠輕易地轉換。
尤其是在預期要參加季賽時。八月底我很和平地面對我今年將不能打球。
What's been the biggest adjustment from player to assistant coach?
That every night at about 6 o'clock, 6:15, your job is over instead of just
beginning. That actual outlet of competing and coming up to the games.
每個晚上差不多6點,6:15,你的工作才正要開始。
Do you miss playing?
Definitely. Definitely. Definitely. A lot. Honestly, I don't know if I'll
ever not miss it. To add to that, more than just playing, I miss being 25 and
playing.
當然。當然。當然。非常。老實說,我不知道我是否有不想過。我希望我是25歲,然後可
以打球。
How often have you thought about a comeback?
I'm at peace with the fact that I did it as long as I could do it, I think I
worked hard at it, I did physically all I could.
我接受這事實,只要我可能可以,我為此很努力訓練,我做了我所能做的。
There are always teams that, as the playoffs get closer, look for that one
last piece for a playoff push or a playoff run. Being a big man is even more
attractive. What happens if your phone rings and somebody says, "You sure you
don't want to give it another try?"
有很多球隊會在當季後賽接近時,尋找能拚進季後賽或者在季後賽有所幫助的最後一塊拼
圖。大個子是更有魅力的。假若你的電話響起,某位人兄說「你確定你不想再試試?」,
會怎麼樣?
I just really couldn't do it. I wish I could. If I could, I'd still be out
here.
我真的沒有辦法。我希望我可以,如果我可以,我依然會去的。
How often do you play? Do you play pickup games? Do you play one-on-one
against any of the guys?
I guard them, but I haven't really played a pickup game. I go out before
practice sometimes and shoot. I've played my son. But he's 6, so that doesn't
really count.
我防守他們,但我還沒玩過即興比賽。我會在練習前出去。和我兒子打過,但他六歲,所
以那不真的算數。
Who won?
誰贏
I let him win like every 50 times.
我讓他贏。
