Francis says flash not so important anymore
Newest Rocket knows his role will be different
小法說:做人要低調,贏球最重要
火箭"新人"明白他自己的角色
By JONATHAN FEIGEN
Steve Francis walked down the familiar hallway to the Rockets' practice court,
past the portraits of the five Rockets teams on which he played, past the
photograph of himself as one of the Rockets' All-Stars.
He pointed to the championship banners still hanging on the other end of the
court, and soon displayed the No. 3 Rockets uniform he once wore and would
again.
Suddenly, the past three seasons seemed to have slipped by in a wink, with so
much unchanged.
對于SF3來說,穿過過道來到訓練場,經過還挂有他照片的地方,一切都再熟悉不過了.
他指向懸挂著的冠軍旗,又一次向大家展示"熟悉"的3號球衣,恍惚之間,仿佛過去三年
都是過眼云煙,一切都沒什么變化.
But he was different. The Rockets were different. And to Francis- reintroduced
on Friday in his return to the Rockets three seasons after he was traded to
Orlando ─ that made all the difference.
"I'm not really looking to doing the flashy stuff like I used to," Francis said.
"That right there was to get on SportsCenter. Now I'll try to get on SportsCenter
winning games. I think that's what's important."
但終究還是不一樣了,SF3不一樣了,火箭也不一樣了.對于在交易至魔術离開火箭三個球季
之后,在周五又重新披上火箭球衣的小法來說,變化是有很大.
"我不會在一直想這以前我做的那些花里胡哨的東西了",小法說,"以前那是為了上SC,現在
我想的是如何贏球,這是更重要的."
Francis' is no longer expected to be the go-to offensive force on a team with
Tracy McGrady and Yao Ming, and with the offseason's other point-guard
acquisition, Mike James, in place.
"People get at the stage of their career, winning is more important," Francis
said. "There have been seasons for myself and Tracy, for Yao, the numbers
were sky high. We could get 20, 25 points every game, but I think at this stage
of people's career, I think it's more important that everybody focus on winning.
"It was tough (to decide on a team). The fact that made a difference is this
team is ready to win now."
似乎在現在的火箭隊,小法可能不會再是那個go-to-guy了.
"每個人都該找到自己的位置,贏球是最重要的",小法如是說,"我(們)-T-mac,Yao-可能每晚
都能拿下20+,但對于現在而言,每個人專注于贏球更重要."
A Bobby Jackson type
Rockets general manager Daryl Morey said it is too early to know how Francis
will be used, though Francis said it's not important if he starts or not.
Morey described an instant offense role similar to the one Bobby Jackson
played off Rick Adelman's bench in Sacramento. But he said even with the
disappointments of last season, Francis showed flashes of the being the All
-Star he was with the Rockets and could be that kind of player with that
kind of responsibility again.
Morey說現在怎么用SF3還不确定,盡管他本人對是否先發沒什么意見.對于在A教練
戰術体系下的角色,Morey覺得可能會象當時國王隊的Bobby Jackson一樣.盡管SF3上個
球季表現一般,但他實力還在,希望能扮演好他的角色.
"Steve has gone from ... I wouldn't say it but people have argued, overrated
when he was here before, to I think dramatically underrated," Morey said.
"He's still a very good player. He played very well for New York last year.
His ability to get to the basket I think is still top 10 in the league.
"We really feel he can play the role Bobby Jackson played for (Adelman) in the
past very effectively. In this system, guys who can cut and get to the hoop
really, really have a premium value. (Adelman) has not determined the role
anyone's going to have, but I think that's a role for sure he can play. We
still feel like he has All-Star ability.
"He's saying, 'I'm looking to contribute. ... If that's a Bobby Jackson role
, that's great.' "
"有人說小法是被高估了的球員,但他重返火箭之前,我覺得他是被低估了",Morey說,
"他還是個好球員,A教練体系下B.Jackson的角色,就是要多切入并接近籃框.A教練還沒有
決定每個人的最終角色,但是我覺得SF3肯定能表現好,他仍然有全明星球員的能力."
The acquisition of Francis could lead to other moves. Morey has said he would
look to move point guard John Lucas III. He has spoken to several teams,
including New Orleans.
He said he would not necessarily move other point guards, but the Miami Heat
have expressed interest in Rafer Alston, with forward Udonis Haslem and
center Michael Doleac among the names discussed.
SF3的回來意味著有人回离開.Morey說盧三小會走,他和一些球隊在談包括黃蜂.
Morey還說不想再送走其他PG,但是熱火對RA有興趣,同時Haslem和Doleac的名字也被提及.
Closing the gap
With his third major move of the offseason, Morey said owner Leslie Alexander
believed the Rockets had closed the "talent gap" of the top Western Conference
teams, the Dallas Mavericks, San Antonio Spurs and Phoenix Suns. That also was
enough for Francis to return.
"I'm definitely ecstatic about being given the opportunity to come back to the
place I began this journey, and possibly making it to the championship,"
Francis said. "I'm excited to be back here with Yao, a guy like Tracy and all
the guys that are very, very good players.
"We have a lot of talent. We have a lot of versatile individuals on this
roster. It doesn't make a difference where I fit in. I just want to go out
and win.
"To me, it's another step, another not only for myself, but to help this
franchise go to another level."
在Morey完成他的第三步動作后(第一步選秀第二步Scola?),老板Alexander覺得火箭現在
應該可以和西部三強比拼一下了.
"能回來我絕對很高興,我還想肖想一下冠軍",SF3說,"能和Yao,Tracy還有其他好球員一起
比賽,我實在是很激動.我們現在有很多有天賦的球員,Roster中也有各种各樣角色的球員,
我相信我肯定能融入球隊."
"對我來說,這是一個新的開始,同樣更加是為了球隊能更進一步."
