Re: [外絮] 拓荒者老闆:不帶雙向是因我不夠了解NBA
這老闆看下來其實就是標準的商人思維
把冰球大的那套直接搬來NBA 結果發現沒戲
連退房時間 發毛巾跟發T恤這種小事都要親自下去管
畫面想起來實在滿搞笑的= =
但至少願意承認自己不懂籃球圈的文化
也有試著去學習跟調整 雖然還是很小氣啦
這點就贏過某些...自以為很會的GM(無惡意
等下賽季看他怎麼治理球隊 就知道是摳門還是真不懂了
如果連教練團跟後勤的錢都要硬省
那阿拓球迷只能說 多保重了
不過有一說一 當GM好像很有趣餒
要是可以有個NBA經理人遊戲就好了笑死
我肯定灑錢養球隊 走一個豪門路線

: On the notion he’s cheap:
: 關於有人認為他很摳門這件事
: “My hockey team has been over the cap many times. They were the lowest in the l

: 「我的冰球隊很多次都超過薪資上限,他們原本是聯盟裡花費最低的球隊,我買下球隊時,
: 他們甚至只在薪資下限附近,NHL允許你在球員受傷時超過薪資上限補人,所以我很多次都
: 超過上限,因為規則允許這麼做」
: 「但同時我離開房間時也會順手關燈,所以朋友總是笑我,他們都說我根本不會當有錢人」
: “I just don’t want to waste money. I want to invest it. I’ll have many masseu

: 「我只是不想浪費錢我,想把錢拿去投資,球隊會有很多按摩師,也會提供最好的食物,我
: 們會好好照顧球員,因為這有助於贏球,這本來就是球隊運作的一部分」
: 「但有些關於球隊經營方式的事情——拓荒者每年在球隊營運上的支出,比卡羅萊納颶風隊
: 多出1億美元,而且這還不包含球員薪資」
: “The Hurricanes, since I bought the team, have the first or second-best record
: in the league. So, I’m just not going to waste 100 million dollars, just becaus
: e somebody wants to write an article calling me cheap. I’m just not going to do

: 「自從我買下颶風隊後,他們一直都是聯盟戰績前一、二名的球隊,所以我不會只是因為有
: 人想寫篇文章罵我摳門,就白白浪費1億美元,我不會這樣做」
: 「而且老實說,在球隊競爭力和如何贏球這件事上,我其實不太去想預算,有些被歸咎於『

: On the decision not to travel with two-way players in the playoffs:
: 關於季後賽不讓雙向合約球員隨隊客場的決定
: “I just made a mistake. I just don’t understand the league. In hockey, we don

: 「我只是犯了錯,我其實還不夠了解這個聯盟」
: 「在冰球界,我們不會帶額外的人隨隊,因為我們不是去度假,我們是去贏球的,所以不想

: 「但NBA似乎能接受這些事情,這不是我的思維方式,所以你必須去學習這兩個聯盟之間的

: On making traveling party (except players and coaches) check-out early from the
: Phoenix hotel before the play-in game vs. the Suns:
: 關於在對太陽附加賽前,要求隨隊人員(球員與教練除外)提前從鳳凰城飯店退房
: “The hotel story with the staff is an interesting story, I think, because, norm
: ally, when you travel, you get late checkout, right? In this case, in sports, it
: ’s usually like 5% and never comes up. Because it was last-minute — going to P
: hoenix, there was no hotels — I guess Phoenix in March is a pretty popular plac
: e. So, I had trouble getting hotels. And the hotel really wanted us to be out ea
: rly because they needed the rooms. And so, they wanted us to pay for a second ni
: ght. And so, we did that for the coaches and the players. But we got (them) to l
: et us leave at 1 o’clock. And I had a room at the hotel. I was there. So, I’m
: like, lunch starts at 1:45. We have a huge ballroom with this really nice lunch
: for everybody. So, I said, ‘Look, we’ll do the players and the coaches. We’ll
: stay. We’ll pay the extra night. For the staff, we’ve got this big ballroom w
: ith food. We’ll go down there and work.’ And everyone was down there. I was do

: me of the training staff, etc.
: 「我覺得飯店那件事其實很有意思,通常出差旅行時,你都會要求延後退房,對吧?在體育
: 界這種情況其實只佔大概5%,幾乎不太會發生」
: 「但因為那次是臨時去鳳凰城,而當時根本沒什麼飯店空房——我猜鳳凰城三月是很熱門的
: 地方——所以我訂房遇到很多困難」
: 「飯店真的很希望我們早點退房,因為他們需要房間,所以他們要求我們多付一晚住宿費,
: 於是我們替教練和球員支付了那筆費用」
: 「但我們協調到可以延到下午1點離開,我自己當時也住在那家飯店,午餐是1點45開始,我
: 們有一個很大的宴會廳,也準備了很棒的午餐給大家」
: 所以我就說:『球員和教練可以留在房間,我們付多一晚,但工作人員就到樓下宴會廳,有
: 食物也可以在那裡工作。』
: 「結果大家都在那裡,我自己也在,我其實在那一小時裡學到很多,因為我有機會和一些訓
: 練團隊的人聊天等等」
: On the decision to give fans free towels instead of free T-shirts during home pl
: ayoff games:
: 關於季後賽主場發送免費毛巾而不是免費T恤的決定
: “I wasn’t trying to save money. I just kind of thought t-shirts were kind of s
: illy. They called me and said … ‘Do you want to do t-shirts?’ I’m like, ‘No
: , let’s do towels.’ It was that long of a conversation. Because in Carolina, w
: e do towels and it’s awesome. Like (fans at) the arenas, they’re all waving th
: em. Well, I got to the Portland game, no one waved any towels. So we tried to ge
: t t-shirts for the next game. I didn’t know t-shirts were such a thing, because
: I hadn’t thought about the fact that in hockey, we’ve got jerseys, everybody
: wants to wear their jersey. And so they don’t want t-shirts because they’ve go
: t their jerseys. But in basketball, (that’s) not the case. They want to wear th
: e t-shirt.
: 「我不是想省錢,我只是覺得T恤有點蠢」
: 他們打電話問我:『你想發T恤嗎?』我就回:『不要,發毛巾吧』整段對話差不多就這麼
: 短
: 「因為在卡羅萊納,我們都是發毛巾,而且效果超棒,球場裡每個人都在揮毛巾」
: 「但我到了波特蘭的比賽後,發現根本沒人在揮毛巾,所以我們下一場就趕快改發T恤」
: 「我之前根本不知道T恤文化這麼重要,因為我沒想到冰球和籃球的差別,冰球迷通常都有
: 球衣,大家都想穿自己的球衣,所以不太需要T恤」
: 「但在籃球不是這樣,球迷真的會想穿那些T」
