DALLAS -- Veteran big man Jermaine O'Neal, who put comeback plans on hold this week, intends to make a firm decision on whether he wants to retire this summer. The Dallas Mavericks expected to sign the 36-year-old O'Neal this month, but he informed them and other interested teams Monday that he wasn't ready to commit to returning to the NBA at this time. "What I'm going to do going forward is I'm going to work out twice a week on the court just to keep my body and mind affiliated with basketball," O'Neal said Wednesday on 103.3 FM's "Friedo and Fitzsimmons" in Dallas. "Come July 1, if I can't say I want to play on July 1 to my agent, then I'm officially retiring and enjoying my family and [Dallas suburb] Southlake and the community." O'Neal, an 18-year veteran and a six-time All-Star, took the first half of the season off to focus on spending time with his family and some business interests. He began pursuing a comeback in December, taking a trip to Germany for treatment on his knees and starting to seriously train at the start of the new year. O'Neal acknowledged that he had a setback with his foot in the fourth week of his training, but he said he felt like he would have been physically able to play in the NBA this season. "It had to be right, and I wanted to make sure that whatever that commitment was, I could answer that and I could do the things that the team and the fan base expected me to do," O'Neal said. "I just, through the process of six or seven weeks, when it came down to the Mavs or the Warriors or Portland or whoever it may be needing an answer, I just felt like I wasn't doing them any justice because I felt like I wasn't ready to do it. "And it wasn't because I physically couldn't do it. They just needed to know right now. The timing wasn't right. I don't want you guys committing to me for a job that I feel like I wasn't 100 percent ready to commit for." O'Neal said he believes he "probably can play two more years at a level that I played last year with Golden State." He averaged 7.9 points and 5.5 rebounds in 20.1 minutes per game with the Warriors last season. The Mavs will continue to monitor O'Neal's progress. Dallas coach Rick Carlisle, an assistant in Portland when O'Neal broke into the league as a first-round pick fresh out of high school, and his head coach during four prime seasons with the Indiana Pacers, worked out O'Neal recently and plans to stay in touch with the big man. "We understood that there were no guarantees with this thing and we appreciate all of his efforts," Carlisle told ESPN's Marc Stein on Monday. "He did all of this stuff by himself. He went to Germany to get treatment on his knees and then he went through a rigorous process of conditioning. He only wanted to play for the Mavs, and he did everything in his power to make it happen. "Unfortunately it was not meant to be right now, but my relationship with him goes back for almost two decades, so we want to keep all communication open for the possibility he could play with us next year." 小歐回復訓練後四個禮拜又發現腳受傷了 然後他也說到目前為止不簽約是因為狀況沒到100%,他不會隨意承諾沒法負荷的工作 小歐也說說接下來的時間他每個禮拜都會保持訓練已維持身心都在足以應付nba強度的狀態 然後看7/1號自由市場開市後想不想繼續打球 想要就延續生涯;不想就退休陪家人 他認為自己的狀況如果調整好還可以在未來兩年提供像是去年在勇士的績效(7.9分、5.5籃 板,每場出賽20.1分鐘) 卡帥說:小牛明白小歐的情況,畢竟未來的事情本來就說不準,也沒有人會料到腳傷會復 發,小牛全隊上下都很感謝小歐為了復出所作的努力。無論是遠赴德國治療、自主訓練 ......這一切都是為了加入小牛幫助小牛,可惜事與願違 不幸的事情是現在並不是小歐加入小牛的時機,但卡帥和小歐的感情可以往回追溯20年。 所以我們會持續保持聯繫,並對於未來明年小歐加入小牛保持著一個樂觀的態度 心得:差點成為雪中送炭的小歐,明年有機會再見 -- Q:請問以下的諸位人物 何人是[真實存在]於幕末時期---明治維新之間的歷史人物? 1.坂田銀時 2.南方仁 3.緋村劍心 4.以上皆是   ( ′_ゝ`)<怎麼沒有選項5    (゚Д゚;) <什麼?我以為答案是4欸 ˍ(__ / ̄ ̄ ̄ / (__つ/ ̄ ̄ ̄/ˍ    \/    /    \/    / -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 220.143.16.3 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Mavericks/M.1424315131.A.4D5.htmlfeafow5221:轉錄至看板 NBA 02/19 11:16
