Smith not traded, but not popular with Coach Scott http://www.nola.com/hornets/t-p/index.ssf?/base/sports-2/114076517539890.xml Friday, February 24, 2006 By John Reid Staff writer OKLAHOMA CITY -- Despite the Hornets' push toward the playoffs, a rift has developed between Coach Byron Scott and second-year shooting guard J.R. Smith. 儘管黃蜂已經朝著季後賽邁進，Byron Scott和2年級後衛JR Smith仍然是失和中。 Both acknowledged before Thursday's trade deadline they haven't been on speaking terms since early January after Scott demoted Smith in favor of Kirk Snyder in the starting lineup. 在星期二的交易截止日之前，自從Scott把Snyder調上來當先發後，他們兩個就沒有再說過話了。 Scott said Smith has not gotten better from last season, which forced him to lose his starting job. Scott說Smith表現的沒有比上季好，也因此他失去了先發的工作。 "I stop talking to people that don't listen," Scott said. "I'm not going to waste my breath. I've sat down with J.R. on numerous occasions and told him what he needed to do, so have Coach (Darrell) Walker and Coach (Kenny) Gattison and Coach (Jim) Cleamons. And like I said before, if you chose to do it, then we'll work. Scott我已經不想和不聽話的人說了，我不想浪費我的時間。我已經和JR做下聊過好幾次而且也告訴他現在必須怎麼做。很多人都跟他說了，就如我先前所說，如果你照著做，我們就會如往常一般運作。 "If he chose not to, there is nothing I can do about that. I tell all our players what they need to do to improve. I have an open-door policy. There hasn't been one time that J.R. has come into my office and talked to me. Like I said, he's lying." 但是假如你選擇不去做，那就沒得談了。我已經跟所有的球員講過他們必須改進的地方。我一向採用很開放的管理。JR卻從來沒進來我的辦公室找我談過。就如我說的，他說謊。 Scott said they have spoken only one time since January when Scott replaced him in the starting lineup after Smith called to ask if he was getting traded nearly two weeks ago. Scott說他和Smith從一月初起只有講過一次話，就是當他的先發位置被拿走後，Smith問他是不是要把他交易了。 "I said, 'No, we're not trying to trade you, but here's what you have to do, though,' " Scott said. "I don't understand what more you want. (He) comes in with five minutes left in practice (Monday in Indianapolis) and goes and sits down, and when we finish scrimmaging, (he) goes to shoot free throws, and he doesn't come to us and say 'Coach, I'm sorry that I overslept.' It's not acceptable." 我說:"沒有,我們不打算交易你，但是有很多你必須做的事情。" Scott說，我真的不了解你要的是什麼。他星期一的練習還遲到了五分鐘，當他來的時候卻坐在一旁，當我們結束練習，他去投了投罰球，但是沒有加入我們反而說"教練，我很抱歉我睡過頭了"這真是讓人難以接受。 Smith said Scott has taken it personally against him, from no longer playing him on a regular basis to having little communication. Smith說Scott是因為個人因素才不用他。 Smith said he wasn't surprised when Scott did not play him in Wednesday night's loss to the Utah Jazz at the Ford Center, despite that backup guard Speedy Claxton was sidelined with a sprained left ankle; top scorer David West missed his second consecutive game to be with his wife and newborn daughter; Jackson Vroman, who started in place of West, broke his right wrist when he tried to break his fall after a dunk in the third quarter; and earlier in the quarter, Desmond Mason bruised his tailbone and did not return. Smith說他不會對於Scott在星期三主場對爵士輸球時沒有讓他上場感到驚訝，就算Speedy Claxton因傷在場邊休息、West去陪老婆生女兒、Vroman在比賽中右手受傷，還有Mason 的尾椎受傷後就沒上場。 "I wasn't surprised at all, because his ego is too big in order to put something petty aside and try to win the game," Smith said. "At this point, something has to be done; I'm not going to prosper from this situation. When you can't communicate with the head guy, something is wrong. I come in early, stay in late, and if that don't work, I don't know what will. So there is nothing for me to do. I've approached him (Scott) numerous times, tried to call, set up meetings -- no communication. Every team I've been on, I've always been friends with the head coach." "我不會對這一切感到驚訝，因為他的自尊心很強，為了贏得比賽必須把嫌隙放在一邊." "從這點來看，一切就合理了; 我不能改變比賽的情勢。但是當你不能和領導的人溝通時事情就整個都錯了.我早到並且晚離開，假如沒有改變現況，我不知道接下來會怎樣。所以我現在不曉得要做什麼。我已經盡量接近Scott很多次了，但是仍然沒交談。每一個隊伍都一樣，我總把教練當作朋友。 It was speculated that Smith would be traded before Thursday's 2 p.m. deadline. He anticipated that it was going to happen after practice. But no deal occurred. 在星期二下午兩點的截止日前，Smith沉思了很久。他想在練習完之後一定會有交易發生但是卻沒有。 Scott and Hornets general manager Jeff Bower declined to say if Smith was part of the deal that couldn't be completed in time before the deadline, which the league did not allow. Scott和黃蜂的總經理Jeff Bower委婉地說如果Smith是交易的一部分的話，可能就無法再交易時間前完成交易了，聯盟也不會允許。 But Bower said Smith's future remains with the Hornets. However, he gives his full support to Scott on how he handles players and the expectations he sets for them. 但是Bower說Smith未來還是會一直在黃蜂，但是他支持Scott的處理，並且對他的調度感到期待。 "The coach has it in his job to set expectations and performance levels that he's looking for, and it's the player's job to meet them," Bower said. "Playing time in a competitive situation and distribution of minutes is a very important thing. Earning those minutes and creating a role is something that has to be developed and not given. If one player is playing and the other player isn't, and if there is a change in that somebody else's minutes has to go. It's a competitive thing." "教練已經把隊伍調成狀態他認為最好的樣子，並且去和教練會面是球員的責任"Bower說 "在比賽中的時間分布是相當重要的。爭取每一分鐘，並且扮演好自己的角色。 Scott said he doesn't think Smith's unhappiness will divide the team, because he believes the Hornets' veterans will handle the situation. Scott說他不認為Smith的不愉快會分裂隊伍，因為他相信黃蜂的黃蜂的老手會處理這種情形。 After the trade deadline passed, Scott said, "He (Smith) will be here. Like I said before, it isn't never going to be personal with me. But I would like for the man to start telling the truth, that he'd be honest not only with you guys (media) but also his self. That's to me is the bottom line." 隨著交易時間過去，Scott說:"Smith將會繼續在隊伍中，如同我之前所說，我不會帶著我的個人因素。但是我希望他能夠變得誠實點，不只在面對媒體，還有面對他自己。這是我的底限" NOTE: Vroman will miss the remainder of the season with a broken right wrist that occurred in Wednesday's loss to the Utah Jazz, Scott said. Vroman was injured after he went up for a two-handed dunk and fell to the floor and put both arms behind his back to break the fall. Vroman averaged 1.8 points and 2.1 rebounds. Vroman這季大概掰了...右手...囧 "It wasn't a good break," Scott said. "He's got to get a plate in there and everything." -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.64.109.225
