http://www.sltrib.com/jazz/ci_3713592 Jazz: O'Connor keeping summer Revue open Jazz Notes By Phil Miller The Salt Lake Tribune It's hard enough to lure free agents to Salt Lake. Now Kevin O'Connor has to entice entire teams to commit to Utah. 把自由球員吸引到猶他來很難。現在 KOC必須要把整隊都給吸到猶他來。 "There's been some recruiting involved, absolutely," O'Connor said of the time he has spent over the past month collecting enough commitments to keep the Rocky Mountain Revue afloat for another year. "I made sure I kept talking to people, letting them know what we're doing and how much we'd like to have them here." 「這當然跟招募球員有關，一定的。」 KOC對於他在上一個月不斷的在和別人談，想要確定他們今年會又來參加猶他夏季聯盟。「我確定我正在不斷的和別人說，讓他們知道我們在這了做了什麼還有我們有多希望他們能夠在這裡。」 His efforts have convinced five other teams to join the Jazz this summer, essentially the minimum number to justify the effort and expense of putting on the Revue. "We've got six teams, six solid teams, so that will keep us going," O'Connor said. "We would love to have it be a little bigger if we could. But with six, that gives us a workable number." 他的努力讓其他五隊在今年夏天加入爵士隊一起參加這個聯盟，這樣的數字是讓這個聯盟繼續的最小數目。「我們有六隊，六個強隊，所以我們會繼續。」 KOC說。「我們會覺得再多一點會好一些，但是六個，對我們來說是個可以的數目。」 The Mavericks, Spurs, Sonics and Hawks have agreed to send their rookies and tryouts to the Revue again this year, but the Bobcats pulled out. After calling around and making his pitch, O'Connor received a commitment from the Sixers for this summer's Revue, tentatively scheduled to run July 14-21 at Salt Lake Community College's Redwood campus. 小牛、馬刺、超音速、老鷹已經確定今年要再加入這個聯盟，不過山貓抽腿了。在不斷的找可能的隊伍之後， KOC收到了七六人的保證，目前會在 SLCC 的紅木校園，七月 14~21開打。 "That gives us three games a day, and gives us a chance to have a couple of days off during the Revue, so teams don't have to play three days in a row," O'Connor said. "It's a good situation for fans, and I think everyone appreciates the fan support we get." 「這樣一天可以有三場，然後在比賽裡面有兩天的休息，所以每隊不會連打三場。」 KOC說。「這對球迷們很好，而我想每個人都覺得球迷們的支持是最棒的。」 It's far more difficult to attract teams than it used to be, due to the swift rise of the Las Vegas Summer League. It's easier to convince first- and second-year veterans to spend a week in Las Vegas, so teams have clamored to join that league. In fact, at least 18 teams want to send squads to Las Vegas; according to published reports, the NBA may enforce a 16-team limit there. 現在和以前比起來，因為拉斯維加斯的夏季聯盟興起，所以更難吸引對五來。要說服一年級和二年級生去拉斯維加斯簡單多了，所以其他隊會更想要加入該聯盟。事實上，至少十八隊想要送隊伍去拉斯維加斯；報紙說， NBA會讓他們只能有 16 隊。 The appeal of Salt Lake is the opposite - O'Connor points out that players have far fewer distractions in Utah. "Everything is about basketball here," he said. "We'd like to keep the Revue going for as long as we can." 這樣看來鹽湖城剛好相反， KOC指出球員們在猶他很少有什麼壞的吸引力。「在這裡，每件事都是籃球」他說。「我們會讓這個聯盟盡量永遠繼續下去。」 -- 後面就懶得翻啦～ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 203.204.129.89
