Magic's Hill giving it one more shot
哨兵報
Hill reiterated to the Sentinel on Thursday what he told the newspaper several
weeks ago: He will retire if the last option to correct his nagging sports
hernia injury this summer is surgery.
Hill在禮拜四重複聲明了，如果暑假會動刀處理疝氣的問題，在那之前，他會選擇退休。
"I would probably say yes," Hill said by cell phone after being unavailable to
the media at RDV Sportsplex. "I don't see getting another surgery. We tried it
. It didn't work. I don't see doing another."
"我可能會這樣說。"Hill透過手機說告訴RDV媒體，"我不會要另一個手術。之前已經試過
了(手術)，但沒有用。我不會想要作另一次手術。"
Another surgery would run Hill's six-year total to seven -- five on his
infamous left ankle and two on his sports hernia. He has exhausted his physical
and, particularly, his mental capacity to endure another trip to the operating
room.
再一次手術就會累積到六年來的第七次手術，五次是腳踝。他的身體已經消耗許多了，而
且他的心靈也未能忍受再次進入手術房。
Hill disputed Assistant General Manager Otis Smith's notion that he ultimately
would opt for a second hernia surgery if his plan to rest and rehab the injury
fails.
Hill反駁魔術隊GM的說法，說他最終會選擇手術，如果要恢復那個受傷部位的話。
"I wouldn't do this if I didn't think it would work 100 percent; I would move
on right now," Hill said of the extensive rehab program he'll start soon."I
know there's always the worst-case possibility of anything.
"我不會去作(手術)，如果我不認為那有百分之百的功效。"Hill談到他目前即將展開的
復健活動。"我知道任何事情總是會有最糟糕的一面。"
"But I'm excited. I have a better understanding [of the injury] now. I feel
good about it."
"但我很高興。我對於(我的傷)已經有了更多的瞭解。我感覺很好。"
Hill wants to play and to be a part of the Magic's promising future, but he
won't subject his body to more intrusions
Hill希望能成為魔術隊未來的一部分，但是他不希望他身體再次的動刀。
"I want to be here, but I've been around pro sports my whole life [his father
is former NFL running back Calvin Hill] and I know things can happen."
"我想待在這邊，但我已經在職業運動這行待了快一輩子，而我知道總是有些事情會發生。"
Hill said he has been in contact the past several weeks with abdominal
specialist Alex McKechnie.
Hill說他在過去幾個禮拜已經和腹部專家Alex McKechnie聯絡過了。
His tentative plan: Rehab with McKechnie and then -- when, and if, the hernia
area responds -- subject it to the stress in simulated games.
目前暫時的計畫是，和McKechnie一同進行附健。如果好一點就可以試試看比賽的情況。
If the pain returns, Hill won't.
如果再次感到傷痛，就不會繼續進行。
"I'm not going to go under the knife," he said. "I believe this approach will
work. The problem was we didn't have the timing [early this past season]. And
the problem was that the few people that rehab this weren't available.
"我不準備動刀。"他說，"我相信這個方法會成功，之前的問題是一直沒有時間(球季中)
。而且很少人進行這些復健的活動。"
"Now we have availability and time to go about it this way."
"現在我們能夠而且有時間進行這些復健活動了。"
Smith said Hill will rehab for three months and "retrain his body before
trying basketball stuff. His timetable is about right. When training camp
starts back up, we'll see where he is.
Smith說Hill會進行這些活動三個月，而且再次接觸籃球之前會重新訓練他的身體，他
的時程排的很好。當訓練營開始時，我們到時候就會知道他在哪邊出現了。
"We'll have a better gauge of how much of Grant is going to be part of our team
, and I think he will be."
"我們會有更多資訊可以衡量他是否會成為我們球隊的一部分，而我想他會是的。"
"It's been weird. I had an unbelievable six years [in Detroit] and an
unbelievably rough six years here," he said. "I've been on both ends. It's
tough for everybody. I know how hard it has been on the organization."
"很奇怪。我在活塞隊那六年好到叫人不敢相信，但再來六年也同樣是叫人不敢相信。"
Hill說，"我兩頭極端都曾經歷過，這對於每個人來說都很不好過，我知道這中間有多
困難。"
Hill will turn 34 during the Magic's training camp in October in Jacksonville.
He said he's prepared to accept any role that Coach Brian Hill lays out for
him -- be it starter or reserve.
Hill在10月份的訓練營就邁入34歲了。他說他已經準備好教練給他的任何角色，先發或是
替補。
"If he's healthy enough to come back next year, I think that just makes us that
much more effective," Brian Hill said.
"如果他明年回來時很健康，我想這那會讓我們更有效率些。"Brain Hill說。
"The people out there saying we should just leave the team the way it is and
don't worry about Grant. . . . I think that's insane. We're definitely a better
team if he's healthy."
"那些說就讓球隊這樣進行，不用去管Grant Hill的人，我想那是瘋了。如果他能夠健康
歸隊的話，我們一定會是隻更好的隊伍。"
For Grant Hill, it's a big IF -- more than ever. Time will tell all.
對於Grant Hill來說，有很多變數，但是時間會說明一切。
