From Orlando Sentinel http://tinyurl.com/2gocy 讀者投書第一段是一位來自Maitland(??)的讀者，他認為我們的總管應該跪下來親吻T-Mac 的腳乞求他別離開，而不是給他最後通牒。他覺得即使是白痴中的白痴、笨蛋中的笨蛋也懂得要這麼做，而不是眼睜睜失去一個Superstar 。第二段來自Summerfield 的讀者則持相反的意見，他認為T-Mac 是個懶惰、容易放棄而且是被縱容的Superstar ，他不喜歡防守，也不喜歡玩團隊籃球，留著他反而是有害的。他認為之前為了滿足T-Mac 而將一堆好球員丟到活塞去(按: 指大班等人)是個錯誤的決定，當時他就這麼說過了。現在他很樂意看到魔術有所行動，他為Weisbrod以及 DeVos 喝采。（按：這邊他講得不太對，丟那些球員到活塞是為了迎來Hill，這筆帳不該算在T-Mac 的頭上。不過相較於之前在活塞的Hill，兩人都一樣沒有很好的隊友，Hill總是能帶大家打出好成績，今年魔術的戰績 T-Mac 總是要負點責任，當然教練團和制服組也不能免責其咎）第三段的讀者說魔術該搬個家（按：是要我們換個手氣嗎？）。他說可以搬到同是佛州的坦帕市，那邊是個世界大賽冠軍的城市（按：美國職棒大聯盟的魔鬼魚隊）。或是搬到拉斯維加斯，那邊似乎沒有任何職業隊。另外，無論如何，絕對不要請來Kobe。（按：我覺得Kobe 還蠻強的啊......這麼多人討厭他啊XD~ ） ------------------------------------------------------------ Magic should beg T-Mac to stay I have to say that I hardly ever agree with you on any issue, but your article (Mike Bianchi, Whole organization failed to build team to keep star, June 19) on Tracy McGrady's leaving could not have been more to the point. I have to wonder whether Tracy would be leaving if we had a GM who did not use the newspapers to force Tracy into a corner. John Weisbrod giving Tracy an ultimatum(最後通牒) was the stupidest idea ever. He should've been kissing Tracy's feet while begging Tracy to stay. That's what any halfwit(笨蛋) idiot out there would have done, let alone the supposed GM of a basketball team about to lose its star player. I thought the Magic had learned their lesson when they lost Shaq eight years ago; I thought that maybe they would actually make the superstar feel wanted this time. Obviously this Magic organization is hardheaded(頑固的), to put it lightly. Only when Tracy leaves will the Magic realize that finding another scoring champion is a lot harder than they think. Maybe this is how superstars are treated in hockey, but someone at the Magic should've let Weisbrod know that this is the NBA, not the NHL. Daniel Liss Maitland(??) ------------------------------------------------------------ Weisbrod should be blunt(腦袋生銹) Once again I find myself puzzled by your column (Mike Bianchi, Whole organization failed to build team to keep star, June 19). Did you learn nothing from the NBA finals this year? You chastise(鞭) John Weisbrod for his blunt dealings with McGrady. I applaud(向...喝采) Weisbrod. It is about time somebody dealt with T-Mac for what he is. He is a tremendous talent but he is also lazy, a quitter(容易放棄), a spoiled little brat(被寵壞的小孩) who quits playing when the going gets tough, he is not a team player, he is not a team leader. T-Mac let Weisbrod and fans know what kind of a man he was when he quit on us all. Way to go Weisbrod, get whatever you can for the talented but whining wimp and move on. I wrote you several years ago about T-Mac being lazy and a quitter and you wrote back and said I was wrong. Look what Detroit accomplished with a bunch of team players, several of them Magic castoffs(被丟棄的人) in John Gabriel's constant attempts to appease(滿足) T-Mac. The Pistons won with defense, which T-Mac doesn't like to be bothered with; they won with toughness, which T-Mac is not; they won by sharing the ball, which T-Mac does not do; they won by playing unselfish as a team, which T-Mac neither knows how to do nor is interested in learning how to do. T-Mac will go to another team and be just another spoiled, pampered(被縱容的) "superstar" who makes a lot of money but doesn't have what it takes to be a real winner. I said it some time back and I repeat it now. The Magic need to get what they can and move on. Thank you, Mr. Weisbrod and Mr. DeVos. Gary Crile Summerfield ------------------------------------------------------------ Magic should move I'm a Magic fan since 1989. Even made it to one of the finals nine years ago. It was incredibly exciting, but what a fall from grace. I knew Tracy was leaving and there is basically no team left. Rebuilding will take years and we don't have that much time. It's time for the Magic to move, maybe to Tampa. They are a world championship town and have millions of fans to draw upon, or maybe even Las Vegas. To my knowledge they don't have a pro team of any sort. Anyway, goodbye, Magic, it's been fun. And please, don't bring Kobe to Orlando under any circumstances.
