Houston 雖然正在Nets 作些體能測試了可是目前他還是對重回老東家尼克最有興趣他已經去尼克作過測試了而他的經紀人也說 Houston 除了考慮錢的問題，第二考慮就是拿到戒指的機會。 Kidd 說: Houston 加入會對球隊很有幫助，不只是他的投籃能力，還有他的領導力，更讓我們的板凳堅強，很歡迎他加入我們的大家庭。 Kidd也說:本週預計約Houston 去打打小白球，當然不是把休閒的日子當作遊說別人的商業日，但他這幾天已經跟Houston 談過加入籃網的事情了。 Thorn說:現在要加入哪一隊，還是由Houston作主。 Houston giving Knicks, not Nets, best shot By JULIAN GARCIA DAILY NEWS SPORTS WRITER Thursday, September 20th 2007, 4:00 AM Allan Houston took another step toward his attempted comeback yesterday, scrimmaging with a group of young players at the Nets' practice facility near the Meadowlands. But his agent suggested the shooting guard might prefer to return to the Knicks. Houston has also worked out at the Knicks' facility in Greenburgh several times recently, according to the agent, Bill Strickland. Strickland said that the former Knick star is strongly considering rejoining the team he played with for nine seasons before an arthritic left knee forced him into retirement nearly two years ago. The Knicks, like the Nets, have invited Houston to training camp, which begins in less than two weeks. Neither team has offered the 36-year-old a guaranteed deal, and neither is likely to do so unless he makes the club. Although Houston is also weighing the Nets' offer to attend camp, Strickland emphasized that they don't necessarily hold an advantage just because they seemingly offer a perk that the Knicks don't - a chance to win. When asked if the Knicks hold an edge because of Houston's history with the team - particularly the fact that they once gave him a $100 million contract - Strickland said, "Yes." Strickland also said that on Houston's list of considerations, money and a shot at a ring are secondary to his desire to "go out on his own terms," which could suggest that Houston would like the opportunity to resolve some of the business he left unfinished with the Knicks when his injury forced him to quit during the 2004-05 season. Jason Kidd, who played with Houston during the 2000 Olympics, said yesterday that he is supposed to play golf with him this week. But Kidd said he has no intention of turning a relaxing day on the links into a business-like recruiting visit on behalf of the Nets - he has already had that talk with Houston recently. "I just told him it would be great for him to be part of the family, not just for his shooting, but (for his) leadership," Kidd said after escorting contest winner Kyle Greve to his fifth-grade class at the Lafayette Elementary School in Wayne, N.J. "It would make our bench stronger. And you're talking about a veteran guy who just wants to win. "I really think it would be a great fit," said Kidd. Nets president Rod Thorn, who did not watch Houston's workout yesterday, said he was told by Lawrence Frank and general manager Ed Stefanski that Houston is in "great shape." He also suggested that whatever happens is up to Houston. "All it comes down to is Allan deciding what he wants to do," said Thorn. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 220.132.58.136
