[外電] 尼克本賽季結束發佈會相關
Knicks Players Promise to ‘Figure It Out’
GREENBURGH, N.Y. — In their final defensive stand of the season, Carmelo
Anthony and Amar’e Stoudemire planted their feet and swatted away
conventional wisdom — namely, the belief that they cannot thrive together.
The collected evidence against them is damning. The Knicks were ousted
Wednesday in the first round of the playoffs by the Miami Heat, who
dispatched them in five games. They were swept in the first round last spring
by the Boston Celtics.
Fifteen months after the blockbuster trade that brought Anthony to New York
and united him with Stoudemire, the Knicks are still in search of greatness,
or even consistency. They are 31-40 when both stars play, including a 1-7
record in the postseason.
甜瓜來到紐約已經15個月了，尼克也給他配上了阿罵，但看上去，他們還在
尋找舒服的打球方式。當兩位球星同時出場時，他們的戰績為31勝40負，在
季後賽為1勝7負。
So the doubts persist. 所以，懷疑者仍在。
“I get tired of hearing that, man,” Anthony said Thursday, when the Knicks
conducted their annual postseason exit interviews. “I get tired of hearing
about, Can it work? Will it work? We’re here to play basketball. When we
win, it works. When we lose, it don’t work.”
「我已經厭倦了這些說法。」甜瓜說，「我厭倦了聽到『這是否能奏效』，
「這是否能正常運轉』。我們是來打籃球的，當我們贏球了，這就奏效了；
當輸球了，就沒有奏效。」
Anthony insisted: “We’ll figure it out. I don’t really think it’s
something that’s that difficult to figure out.”
甜瓜堅持道，「我們會解決的，我真不認為這是什麼難事。」
The Knicks, who went 36-30 in this compressed season, are headed for a busy
and challenging off-season.
They are already moving to re-sign Coach Mike Woodson, who compiled an 18-6
regular-season record after replacing Mike D’Antoni. Woodson has the
enthusiastic support of his stars. A deal could be completed by next week.
The Knicks also seem committed to re-signing Jeremy Lin, their young point
guard sensation, who will be a restricted free agent. Woodson practically
guaranteed it.
“Will he back next year? Absolutely,” Woodson said. “He’s a big part of
our ball club.”
「林書豪是我們球隊重要的組成部分，他回來是當然的。」武僧說
Woodson was less definitive about Lin returning as a starter, saying, “Only
time will tell.”
「但他是否還能先發？時間會給出答案。」武僧說
Lin, who revived the Knicks’ season in February and became an international
star, said he wanted to return to the team that gave him his N.B.A. break.
“I think it’d be great if I could come back,” Lin said, “but crazy things
happen.”
林書豪在二月份爆發，成為一名國際球星，他表示想要回到給他爆發機會的
球隊。他說：「我認為，如果能夠回來，這將會是很好。但是，總有瘋狂的
事情發生。」
The Knicks will have to use their midlevel exception, worth $5 million, to
retain Lin (salary-cap rules will prevent rivals from offering more). Yet
once they do, the Knicks will have little flexibility to sign players for
anything more than the minimum. And they are almost certain to encounter a
new rule that effectively imposes a hard payroll cap at $74 million.
Salary-cap constraints could prevent the Knicks from retaining their other
top free agents, most notably Landry Fields, Steve Novak and J. R. Smith (if
he opts out of his contract).
Fields has the best chance of staying, as a restricted free agent with “
Early Bird Rights.” Smith is widely expected to opt out of his $2.5 million
deal, although he said he is undecided. The Knicks will be unable to match
any richer offers.
Then there is Novak, who is heading for his first big payday after leading
the league in 3-point shooting. Novak is unrestricted, with no Bird rights.
Assuming the Knicks use the midlevel exception for Lin, they will be left
only with the biannual exception, worth $1.96 million, which might not be
enough.
“All I know is how much I’ve enjoyed playing here and how much I would love
to be back,” said Novak, a fan favorite.
Novak表達了留下了的意願，「我所知道的是，我在這裡打球很享受，我很希望
能夠回來。」Novak說。
The various cap restrictions will make it nearly impossible to sign an impact
player, such as Steve Nash or Jason Kidd, unless he accepts a minimum salary.
Or the Knicks would have to cut loose Lin, to keep their midlevel exception.
As much as any personnel move, the need to blend the talents of Anthony and
Stoudemire will dominate the Knicks’ agenda in the months to come. They are
the franchise’s two highest-paid players — earning a combined $39.4 million
next season — and their two best scorers. They are under contract for three
more seasons, so the Knicks’ championship hopes are dependent on their
partnership blossoming.
“It definitely can work,” said Stoudemire, who contends the Knicks simply
need time and stability.
Indeed, the Knicks have had little of either commodity since Anthony and
Stoudemire became teammates.
「這當然能奏效。」阿罵表示尼克需要時間來磨合。
「問題只是我們沒能打出穩定的一個賽季。」阿罵說「我們不能將責任都指向
我和甜瓜沒有共存，因為這是一個不太穩定的賽季。這只是時間問題。」

另外面對武僧對瓜身材的問題
瓜有點不耐煩的回應說
"I think you guys looked at that a little bit too much, overanalyzed that,"
he said. "We all can come back in better shape, better condition.
"I'm not going against what coach Woodson said. But I felt like I was in
phenomenal shape, especially coming down the stretch, late March, April, the
whole month of April, even coming down to the playoffs."
「我想你們這些傢伙想得有點多了，有點小題大做了。」甜瓜說道，「(明年)我們
都可以帶著更好的身體狀況和狀態回來。」
「我並不是想冒犯伍德森教練所說的，但是我感覺我的狀態非常好，特別是一路下
來，從三月下旬，四月，整個四月份，哪怕是在季後賽中。」
