[情報] Bickerstaff wants more point time for Felton
板大有空幫忙翻譯一下吧 XD...
翻完借我轉 =.=...
In a clear indication of change, Charlotte Bobcats coach Bernie Bickerstaff has
asked guard Brevin Knight to play off the ball more, leaving rookie Raymond
Felton the point. Where does that leave Knight?
The veteran point guard says his first choice is returning next season if he
still has a significant role with the Bobcats. But if he phases into a bit
player, Knight would prefer to be traded to a contender to finish out his NBA
career.
"I'm still at a point where I want to play (a lot). I feel like my body has
still got that," Knight told the Observer before Friday's game with the Chicago
Bulls. "I want to be here, and I want to play."
It's obvious something's shifting. Felton has three games of 23 or more points
and three games of 10 or more assists in his past five games.
Knight said he doesn't place major significance in Bickerstaff's intent to play
him less at the point and less in general the rest of this season. The Bobcats
have nine games left and are long out of playoff contention, so putting extra
mileage on a 30-year-old body makes little sense.
However, Bickerstaff has always called Felton his point guard of the future,
after choosing him fifth overall in June. Felton has been marvelous since the
All-Star break, particularly beating people off the dribble down the lane.
It's hard to picture Knight finishing his career as a 5-foot-10 shooting guard.
He has two years remaining on his contract, each with an annual salary over $4
million.
"If I'm going to play just a little bit of minutes, I'd rather be on a playoff
team," Knight said. "So if (the situation) changes, we'd address that."
