Instead, he was taunted routinely his own mother. 只有一個地方是Williams知道可以逃避他問題的地方，那就是他的家庭。他有一個指正糾正他行為不再往斜處偏的母親。 "I'd wake him up with 'Where's my laptop?'" Michele Williams said. "Lunchtime, dinnertime, it didn't matter. I'd be in the kitchen cooking: 'Where's my laptop?'" 他的母親Michele William說，我總是以"我的筆電在哪裡"叫他起床，以及午餐、晚餐時間，如果這不怎麼影響的話，我還會在廚房煮飯的時候提醒他：我的筆電在哪裡？ The Nets' top draft pick arrived in East Rutherford yesterday wiser and more mature than your average 20-year-old. Williams is not just a rookie with lottery-type talent, but one who has paid for a crime which cost him $150 in fines, 400 hours of community service and a semester-long suspension. 籃網最高順位的選秀在昨天抵達 East Rutherford (NJ) ，這位比平均20歲還更聰明、更成熟的年輕人。Williams不只是一個在樂透區有天賦的新秀並且被罰了150美金、400小時社區服務、甚至近一學期的禁賽處分。 And as if being reminded routinely about the crime from his mother and opposing fans wasn't enough, Williams lost roughly $3 million in salary - he could have gone as high as No. 6 if worries about his character hadn't dropped him down to the Nets at No. 22. 就當一直持續被母親以及對手的球迷提醒著犯罪問題時並不就這樣而已，如果沒有被這個問題所困擾，Williams 則可能在第六順位被選中，且不會損失了近三百萬美金的薪資差。 "It was a situation where I didn't know that the computers were stolen," said Williams. "When I finally found out that they were, I returned them to the rightful owner. It wasn't like I stole them or tried to hide them or keep them from everyone. It was a mistake that I made without thinking. Maybe it was a blessing, (rather) than me doing something five years from now." Williams說，當時是在我不知道電腦被偷的情況下，但當我發現它們所屬之後，我還給物主。事情並不像是我偷了他們或者是嚐試隱匿或要把它們給其他人。這是一個我還沒有思考的情況下犯的錯誤。 The Nets were also ecstatic to land Williams' teammate, 6-10 power forward Josh Boone, at No. 23 and Arizona guard Hassan Adams with the 54th pick. 籃網並且也是相當高興把Williams 6-10吋的隊友 Josh Boone 也帶回隊來。這位23順位選中的大個子以及第五十四順位的亞利桑那後衛Hassan Adams。 Nets GM Ed Stefanski said all three should be on the opening-night roster. Boone figures to help in the rebounding and shot-blocking departments. Adams - who has a stress fracture in his foot, not to mention a DUI and disorderly conduct charges pending - is a powerful dunker who can defend and run. 籃網GM Ed Stefanski說這三位都會在開幕戰夜晚出現在球員名單上。 Boone 預料自己將會幫助搶籃板以及敲火鍋這兩項上面。如果不談Adams 腳上的一些骨折以及一些違規的行為，他則是一個有威力的灌籃手、可以跑快攻以及防守的球員。 But Williams, who at times was the best player on a UConn roster that featured four players drafted in the first round on Wednesday, should be the cream of the Nets' draft crop. 不過多次被認為是康大所出的四位參加NBA選秀中會在第一輪最出色的Williams，會是這三位當中的最精華。 "He should be mad about dropping as low as he did," Vince Carter said yesterday. 卡特昨天說：他應該會對他掉到這麼低順位而感到不高興。 Williams, though, was far from mad. A summer ago, he thought he had wasted everything away and his mother wouldn't let him forget it. 然而Williams 現在應該已經遠離了不快。因為一個暑假之前，他可能認為他浪費了所有光陰且他的母親持續提醒他使他不會忘記那件做錯的事情。 "I'll go out on a limb and say that won't ever happen again," Michele Williams said. "You're going to have no trouble with Marcus. None." Marcus的母親 Michele Williams說：那件事情絕對不會再發生了，你將不會從那邊Marcus那邊得到任何麻煩，絕對不會。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 211.74.70.158 ※ 編輯: NetsFan 來自: 211.74.70.158 (06/30 23:51)
