: Off the radar: Nuggets point guard Earl Watson, a target of the Timberwolves
: during free agency this summer, has been relegated to the end of the bench in
: Denver. Watson has played just one game this season, for a total of six
: minutes, after signing a five-year, $29 million contract with Denver.
雷達外的事：金塊控衛E.Watson，他是灰狼暑假其中密切注意想要網羅的自由球員之
一，被遺忘在丹佛的板凳深處。Watson在與丹佛簽下為期一張5年共值2900萬的合約後，目
前為止只打了1場比賽，上場僅6分鐘。
: He's stuck behind starter Andre Miller and reserve Earl Boykins.
他目前是落在先發A.Miller和替補E.Boykins之後的第三控衛。
: Casey, who coached Watson with the Seattle SuperSonics, still holds him
: in high regard.
不過於西雅圖超音速隊執教時帶過Watson的Casey對他依舊相當賞識。
: "I love Earl," Casey said. "His hustle, his demeanor. He's a coach on the
: floor. He's just in a tough situation here with two great point guards in
: Earl and also Andre in front of him. Earl is one of the top point guards in
: the league, I think."
Casey說"我喜歡Watson，他在場上總是拼盡全力，是球場上的指揮官。他在丹佛遇到
的難題是在控衛的位置上前面有Miller和Boykins擋著，然而，我認為他仍是聯盟中頂尖的
控衛之一。"

: Lending a hand: It was Nuggets coach George Karl who gave Casey his first
: opportunity to coach in the NBA with the Sonics. Back in 1994, Casey was
: coaching in Japan after his tenure at Kentucky came to an abrupt end. Casey,
: an assistant coach at Kentucky under Eddie Sutton, had been accused of
: sending money to then-high school recruit Chris Mills.
一臂之力：過去是金塊教頭G.Karl還在超音速隊執教時給了Casey第一個在NBA當教練
的機會。時間回到1994年，Casey當時執教的肯塔基莫名其妙的狀況下結束球季，合約到期
的他之後選擇到日本執教。Casey在肯塔基時是在E.Sutton手下當助理教練，他被指控送錢
給當時的高中畢業生C.Mills以網羅他入隊。
: Karl said he liked Casey's coaching pedigree and background under Sutton.
: Casey counts Karl among his biggest influences.
Karl表示他喜歡Casey系出Sutton的指導方式和背景，Casey則將Karl視為對他影響最
大的人。
: "Dwane was one of those guys who was highly recommended by some people,"

: He wanted to learn. I was really happy for him (when he was named the Wolves
: coach)."
