http://www.startribune.com/sports/wolves/160622365.html The Timberwolves introduced newly acquired Chase Budinger on Wednesday at a Target Center news conference, an addition that reunites him with coach Rick Adelman and helps address but doesn't solve the team's search for a bigger backcourt and a true shooting guard. 布丁狗入隊記者會......AD曾帶過的球員，他有AD需要的能力，但............. 真正的後場在哪????????? "We need to keep looking to add," Adelman said. Tuesday's trade that sent the 18th pick in Thursday's NBA draft to Houston for Budinger gives the Wolves a young, athletic three-point shooter who, at 6-7 and age 24, already has played three NBA seasons, two of them for Adelman with the Rockets, after being the 44th player selected in the 2009 draft. 年輕能三分有活力加上6呎7吋的身材，再NBA打了三年了，有兩年是在AD手下，他是第44順位球員。 "What I really liked about him is his work ethic: He proved people wrong," Adelman said. "He's going to really help our group because of those abilities he has, and I can just see his game getting better, too. There's a lot more he can do, and we're going to give him the opportunity to do that." AD熱愛他的球場態度，他也有能力能做很多事情且會越來越好...........，現在機會都做給他了，他也會做到的.....................。 The Wolves traded away a draft pick's promise for a young, established player in a decision that president of basketball operations David Kahn called "quite simple." 18換年輕有經驗的球員的決定，Kahn稱為很簡單就能決定的事................... ............。 "Frankly, with the 18th pick you're looking at maybe getting another 19-year-old player that you've got to wait for," Adelman said. "And we have too many like that. We need to get quality players." AD很直接表明選了一個18順位的新秀還要等他成長，隊中很多這樣的新秀，我們需要已經獲得證明的球員。 Back in? Kahn said Wednesday there's a chance the Wolves make a trade to get back into the first round Thursday for one or two players they've targeted. They worked out Iowa State forward Royce White and Memphis guard Will Barton and brought Syracuse center Fab Melo in for an interview, but Kahn said it very well could be a player who hasn't visited. "You can assume there will be other changes made," Kahn said. "How many, what type, that I can't clarify. But we're very active and I'm confident we'll be able to do some other things as well." Kahn表示星期四有機會去交易來已注目的第一輪的一位或兩位球員，不過所謂的那些球員並非已拜訪過的球員。 Wolves talk to Roy Kahn said he has talked to former Portland All-Star Brandon Roy and is interested in signing the shooting guard but said he didn't want to say any more than that. Roy retired at age 27 last December because of knees that have little or no cartilage left, and the Blazers paid him the remaining $63 million on his contract after using their amnesty clause to get it off their salary-cap books. He has been working out and is planning a comeback for this season. Chicago, Indiana, Golden State and Dallas also reportedly are interested in signing him. Kahn已經跟Roy談過他們有興趣把他召進灰狼殿中，另外溜馬、勇士、小牛也同感興趣，但Roy一直保持緘默。 Decisions, decisions ... The Wolves have until midnight Saturday to make Michael Beasley $8.1 million and Anthony Randolph $4 million qualifying offers and to pick up a $5.7 million team option on Martell Webster or buy him out of the final year of his contract for about $600,000. Beasley與AR分別 $8.1 million與$4 million的QO，WEB則有$5.7 million的TO，如果最後決定買斷他則只需要付$600,000價格。 Kahn said he has not made a decision on any of those matters yet. Kahn對這些合約東東還在抵著頭沉思當中。 If the Wolves don't extend the qualifying offers to Beasley and Randolph, both players will become unrestricted free agents on Sunday, unless either is traded by then. 如果球隊都沒對B-EASY與AR提出TO，那他們將會在星期一變成為UFA。 The contracts of both Webster and Brad Miller could be used as trade chips on Thursday night for teams looking for salary-cap relief. Each has a $5 million-plus contract next season that can be bought out for less than $1 million. WEB與Miller的合約是一種可以變成交易籌碼的合約，這些合約可以減輕其他球隊的薪資負擔，因為他們買斷合約的金額還不到$1 million。 Etc. ‧ Kahn said he didn't know if Israeli forward Lior Eliyahu -- acquired along with Budinger in Tuesday's trade -- would play for the Wolves' Las Vegas Summer League team or if he had a chance of making next season's roster. "It wasn't the focal point of the trade, but it's a nice little add-on," he said of a 26-year-old player drafted by Orlando in the 2006 second round. Kahn不清楚以色列天才球員Lior Eliyahu會不會來夏季聯盟或著進入球員陣容的機會，不過他並不是這次交易的重點，只能算是個附帶的價值。 ‧ Kahn denied the team is interested in signing free-agent Alexey Schved, a 6-6 shooting guard who played for CSKA Moscow last season. His agent said the Wolves are one of the teams pursuing his client. "I didn't know we had an interest," Kahn said. Kahn不願評論俄羅斯的自由球員Alexey Shevd的問題，雖然他的經紀人表示灰狼隊是追求他的其中之一球隊，但Kahn表示否認。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 111.184.148.68 ※ 編輯: sato111 來自: 111.184.148.68 (06/28 23:14) ※ 編輯: sato111 來自: 111.184.148.68 (06/28 23:33) ※ 編輯: sato111 來自: 111.184.148.68 (06/28 23:46)
