"Amare said, 'Coach, it's going to be an honor to play for the U.S. I'm ready. What do you want me to do over the next two months?' That type of commitment shows great maturity. It's a verbal commitment that is strong. We expect him to be a strong player. I told him to relax for a little bit because getting to be a first-team All-NBA player after that (microfracture) surgery is really one of the more remarkable accomplishments for a player." 　　"這真令人興奮，"星期三K教練說。"阿罵說，'教練，我想打籃球。為美國效力是至高無上的榮譽，我已經做好身心靈各方面的準備了。你希望我在接下來兩個月做些什麼？'那樣的承諾表現出了不起的成熟度。這是個強而有力的口頭承諾。我們期待他可以成為一個強壯的球員。我要他放輕鬆點，因為在經歷那樣的(微創)手術後還能入選NBA年度第一隊對一個球員來說真的是最超卓群倫的幾個成就之一了。" Stoudemire played sparingly on the 2004 Olympic team and used last year's USA Basketball training camp as part of his rehabilitation but left the camp early because his body was not ready. Coming off two knee surgeries, Stoudemire did not miss a game this season - until he received the infamous one-game suspension during the Suns-Spurs playoff series. 阿罵在'04年的奧林匹克隊上沒有太多表現機會，在去年則利用美國男籃訓練營當作他復健過程的一部分但因為身體還沒準備好所以提前離營。走過兩次膝蓋手術，阿罵本季全勤 - 一直到太陽vs馬刺系列賽中才因聯盟無腦的禁賽處分而缺戰一場。 "I guess he's not concerned about anything," said Jerry Colangelo, USA Basketball men's senior national team managing director and Suns chairman. " This (call to Krzyzewski) was upon his own initiative. Obviously, he's going to have some down time here - a whole month. As it works out, he should be fine." "我猜他什麼都不在乎，"身為美國男籃國家隊負責人的太陽老闆J.Colangelo說。"這 (通給K教練的電話)完全是出自他個人的意願。很顯然地，他會有一段時間待在這 - 一整個月。當訓練結束後，他的狀況應該也會不錯。" Stoudemire and Suns teammate Shawn Marion are part of a 25-man USA Basketball roster that will eventually be whittled down to a team that plays in the FIBA Americas Championship, an Aug. 22-Sept. 2 Olympic qualifying tournament held in Las Vegas. A July 20-22 minicamp and Aug. 13-21 training camp will be held in Las Vegas, Marion's college town and hometown of his mother, to lead up to the 10-team qualifier for the 2008 Olympics in Beijing. 阿罵太陽隊友Matrix都是美國男籃25人名單中的成員，這份名單最後將會被削減成為一支球隊，代表美國參加8月22日至9月2日在拉斯維加斯舉行的世界盃男籃錦標賽以爭取奧運參賽權。7月20至22日的迷你營和8月13至21日的訓練營將會在Matrix的母校所在地和他媽媽的家鄉，拉斯維加斯舉行以決定可以爭取'08年北京奧運會參賽權的10支球隊。 Marion has played for the senior national team in the 2001 Goodwill Games, 2002 World Championship and 2004 Olympics. Matrix在'01年的友誼運動會、'02年世界錦標賽和'04年奧運都曾為美國隊效力。 "The last time I spoke with Shawn, he was 50-50," Colangelo said. "He wasn't sure but I'm holding a spot for him." "上一次我和Matrix聊天時，他的心意是欲拒還迎的50%，"Colangelo說。"他還不確定但我願意為他保留一個專屬的位置。" Suns coach Mike D'Antoni also will continue to serve as an assistant coach on Krzyzewski's staff along with Portland coach Nate McMillan and Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim. 太陽教練M.D'Antoni和波特蘭拓荒者教練N.McMillan以及雪城大學教練J.Boeheim都會繼續擔任K教練團隊中的助理教練。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 210.241.111.125
