Manu Ginobili, San Antonio Spurs
by Greg Ruder, Spurs.com
六號?!不很久, Manu 現在穿的是背號二十號.
二十號不是他童年偶像的號碼, 也不是他的生日, 也不是從
他老爸那繼承而來的.
Manu 是這麼說的, 在他成為馬刺隊的得分後衛: "我猜你只
能這樣解釋: 我喜歡它看起來的樣子. 有趣的故事是在於我
是怎麼第一次穿上二十號的球衣"
Manu 與馬刺在 2002 年七月十八日簽約,當時他已在義大利
聯盟度過幾個球季,穿著正是背號六號的球衣.
"在來到馬刺之前我只穿過兩個背號: 6 號跟 10 號, 球隊
原本是給我 6 號. 但那時才是 Avery Johnson 離隊一個球
季之後, 而有部分支持他的球迷表示不滿."
為了不讓自己的 NBA 生涯在這個新城市有個爛開始, Manu
自願放棄了 6 號, 而向球隊要求使用 10 號,可是球隊方面
有不同的想法.
"但是球隊在幾週前已經把 10 號給了 Speedy Claxton
(2002, 6,26 簽約). 所以就像我先前所說的: 我猜二十號
看起來很棒, 就是我要的."
No. 6?! Not for long. Manu now careens in No. 20.
Number 20 wasn’t the number of his boyhood idol. It
isn’t the day of the month his first-born was born.
And it isn’t the number his father wore and passed
down to his son.
“I guess you could just say I like the way it looks,”
said Manu Ginobili, starting shooting guard for the
San Antonio Spurs. “The interesting story is how I
came to wear the No. 20 in the first place.”
Ginobili was signed by the San Antonio Spurs on July 18,
2002, after several seasons spent in the Italian league.
At the press conference to announce his signing, he
actually held up a jersey with the No. 6 on it.
“The only two numbers I have ever worn in my career
were No. 6 and No.10. [The Spurs] originally gave me
No. 6, but that was only one season after [Dallas Head
Coach and former Spurs point guard] Avery Johnson had
left the Spurs, and there was an outcry from the fans
who supported Avery in San Antonio," says Ginobli.
Not wanting to start off his NBA career on a bad note
in a new city, Ginobili willingly gave up the No. 6 and
asked instead for the No. 10. The Spurs, however, had
other ideas.
“[The Spurs] told me that they had just given No.10 to
Speedy Claxton (signed June 26, 2002) a couple weeks
before, so at that point I really didn’t have a preference.
So like I said before, I guess I thought that the No. 20
just looked good, so that’s what I took!”
