http://0rz.tw/7r6o6 NBA Commissioner David Stern didn't offer any revelations during an hour-long conversation at his office early Monday, but he continues to closely monitor arena developments in Sacramento. 雖然史疼在長達一小時的談話中並沒有說出什麼事，但其實他一直持續在密切關注沙城球場的發展。 How closely? While watching the Super Bowl on Sunday (and pulling for New Orleans), he was interrupted by a phone call from John Moag, the arena consultant working with the Gerry Kamilos' downtown arena/land swap plan. 多密切？當他在看超級盃時，被Moag的電話給打斷了。 Weather permitting (another snowstorm was approaching), the Baltimore-based Moag planned to travel to Sacramento and address tonight's City Council meeting. 天氣允許，Moag計劃要去沙城一趟，參加會議。 "The development of the Kamilos proposal was a pleasant surprise to me," Stern said. "The idea that was brought to us by the mayor (Kevin Johnson), that we used to call Plan B, was so inclusive in what it was doing, I had my doubts that it could even come to fruition as an idea put to paper. But I'm cautiously optimistic it will be something that everyone will be able to rally around." 「Kamilos開發的提案讓我嚇了一跳，點子是市長提出來的，我們習慣稱作B計劃，這案子所做的很獨特，我甚至懷疑這要怎麼實現。但我很謹慎地樂觀認為每個人能夠團結起來就可以做得出來」Stern說 As for Kings basketball, the commissioner includes himself among those who projected rookie Tyreke Evans' quick development and said he enjoys watching both of the Kings' first-round picks on the NBA League Pass telecasts. 對於國王，主席說他喜歡在lp上看這兩名第一輪新秀。 Asked whether he in fact "smiled" while announcing the Kings' draft-day selection of Omri Casspi, as Casspi insists, Stern laughed. 問到當他在宣佈國王選omri時，他的臉上是否像omri堅持說有地微笑著，史疼笑了。 "I got a kick out of that," Stern said. "Omri was perceiving a larger smile because I knew how invested a country gets in its first (NBA) draft pick, with the prospect of playing. Maybe he was referring to the twinkle in my eye instead of the smile on my face." 「我對於那感到很爽啊，omri感受到一個大的微笑是因為我了解一個國家要有第一個nba 第一輪球員需要多少的投資。也許他是看到我淚眼汪汪而不是我臉上的微笑」 Stern, who is Jewish, visited with Casspi and family members later Monday afternoon. 史疼也是猶太人，之後有去拜訪過omri和家族成員。 "He said, 'Good to meet you,' " said Eitan Casspi, Omri's older brother. "Great guy. Great guy. Big office, too!" 「他說"很高興認識你，很棒的人，辦公室也很大"」omri的哥哥說。 No complaints – Despite the cold weather and crazy travel schedule, many of the Kings with East Coast roots are squeezing in time with friends and relatives. 盡管天氣很冷，而且賽程很爛，但許多東岸出身的國王球員還是擠出時間給朋友和親戚們 Evans, Jason Thompson, Donté Greene and Francisco García had to arrange for additional tickets for tonight's game. Casspi's father, Shimon, flew in from Israel for his son's Madison Square Garden debut. reke、小湯、綠綠和Cisco都必須為了今晚的比賽買票。omri的父親也從以色列飛來看他兒子在麥迪遜花園廣場的初登板。 Et cetera – It's been a tough few weeks for García. Besides experiencing a setback in his recovery from right wrist surgery, the veteran swingman had a flu/cold and was miserable in Toronto. 對Cisco來說這是個難熬的幾個禮拜。除了經歷了從手腕手術復元的挫折外(因為投完會痠 )，還得了流感.... ‧ Most of the Knicks attended funeral services Monday for Dick McGuire, 84, who was a senior basketball consultant with the club at the time of his death. The younger brother of former Marquette coach Al McGuire, Dick McGuire, a Hall of Famer, had been with the organization for 53 years as a player, coach and scout. 大部分的尼克人出席了Dick McGuire的喪禮，得年84歲，是球隊的資深籃球顧問。前馬奎特教練Al McGuire的弟弟，Dick，是名人堂成員，在球隊已經53年了，當過球員、教練和球探。 ======================================= reke是歐巴馬挑的，omri是史疼同鄉，幹，國王不紅也不行啦 -- -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 220.130.141.241
