http://www.sacbee.com/kings/story/2216515.html One day before the start of training camp, Kevin Martin remained consistent. 在訓練營開始前一天，KM仍舊穩定。 He won't call the Kings "his" team, even if his big contract and status as leading scorer would indicate otherwise. 他不會說國王是他的球隊，就算他是球隊的得分王和他的大張合約。 And even if you think he'd feel threatened, Martin is still giddy about playing with rookie Tyreke Evans, the fourth overall pick in the June draft. 甚至你覺得他感覺到威脅，他仍然對於和Evans一起打球感到暈眩。 Martin texted the Kings' decision makers the morning of the draft to let them know he wanted Evans, even if some think the former Memphis star is better suited to play Martin's spot at shooting guard. KM在選秀當天早上傳簡訊給國王的決策者，讓他們知道他想要Evans，就算有些人認為 Evans比KM更適合打SG。 "A lot of people say he's not a true point, but that doesn't matter," Martin said at Kings media day Monday. "The last five years I've been playing with guys who were actually point guards who think they're '2' guards." 「很多人說他不是真正的PG，但那一點都不重要，過去五年我和很多別人認為他們是雙能衛的真控衛一起打過球」 Martin scrimmaged twice with Evans during voluntary workouts. He sees value in Evans' talents on both ends of the floor. KM在自願訓練中和Evans對抗過兩次，他看到了Evans在攻守兩端的天份。 "At least Tyreke can get to the basket, and he's going to be a pressure releaser," Martin said. "That's what we need, and he can also play defense." 「至少Evans可以進攻籃框，而且他可以分攤壓力，那就是我們需要的，而且他也可以防守(咳咳....那你呢)」 While Martin remains reluctant to anoint himself the team's leader, he is the longest-tenured King in his sixth season. 當KM仍舊不情願將自己冠上球隊的頭時，他是待在國王最久的人。 He's also one of two players on the roster - the other being forward Kenny Thomas - to reach the postseason as a King when Sacramento last advanced to the playoffs in 2006. 他也是兩個自從上次國王打進季後賽後留下來的其中之一。 Martin spoke like a leader regarding the playoffs. KM談到季後賽時就像個老大。 "I've been there before, and I've just got to help the young guys believe that we can get back there," Martin said. "I wish they could feel that feeling just for one week, and it would change how they work out and how they approach this game." 「我之前就有過，而且我必須去幫助年輕人相信我們可以再回去，我希望他們可以感受到，一個禮拜就好，這會改變他們訓練和比賽的方式」 Erasing the memories - A theme for many returning Kings was putting last season's franchise- and league-worst 17-65 record behind them. "It's a sickening feeling," center Spencer Hawes said. "Not only going through it, but when you have to wake up every day and you have to see yourself in that position." 「這是令人作嘔的感覺，不只是要經歷它，而且當你必須每天起床都還看到自己在那邊」 Hawes said last season was a driving force behind his offseason workouts. Hawes說上個球季是他在季外訓練的原動力。 "No one wants to have another year like that, and it's all our responsibility to turn it around," Hawes said. 「沒有人想要另外個像那樣的球季，而我們的責任就是扭轉它」 Martin is just tired of losing and doesn't want that to be what his time in Sacramento is remembered for. KM厭倦了輸球，而且不想要變成他在國王時期時被記得的事。 "We just don't want to leave a legacy behind of the worst team in Sacramento history, second-worst and keep on doing that," Martin said. 「我們不想在有個最糟的記錄後又來個第二糟，不想要一直持續下去」 King missing - Rookie forward Omri Casspi did not attend media day or the team dinner Monday in observance of the Jewish holiday Yom Kippur. Orm沒有出席媒體日和球隊餐會，因為猶太人的節日。 Casspi will join his teammates for practice today. 今天將會加入。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 220.130.141.241
