Chris Granger announced Monday he has stepped down as president of the
Sacramento Kings.
The Sacramento Bee's Ailene Voisin shared a statement from Granger explaining
his decision:
"I just feel it's time. I'm not leaving for another job. There is nothing
imminent. But I want to do something else, to be challenged in a position
working with multiple sports, maybe the Olympics, something with a bigger
platform. With the arena, this job will be about selling corporate
sponsorships, and I just think there's one more big move in me. Plus, my
girls are entering middle school, so this seems like the right time."
“我只是覺得是時候了，我暫時不會再去找工作了，沒有什麼是迫在眉睫的，但是我想
做別的事情，在多種運動的職位上挑戰挑戰，也許奧運是一個更大的平台。
在這個職場上，這個工作將是關於銷售企業贊助，我只是覺得對我而言可能還有其它
更大的變動，況且我的女兒正準備進入中學，所以這似乎是正確的時間。"
Akis Yerocostas and Greg Wissinger of SBNation's Sactown Royalty offered
their praise of Granger:
While the Kings have largely been a mess from a front office perspective,
Granger ensured the franchise took care of business on the commercial end.
When he was hired in 2013, the Kings had recently committed to staying in
Sacramento but remained in need of a new arena. In October 2014, the
organization and city of Sacramento broke ground for Golden 1 Center, and the
venue was completed two years later.
雖然國王隊經歷太多高層時, 留下了是一個很大的屎缺給格蘭傑，但格蘭傑
還是確保了商業方面的經營權。
當他在2013年被雇用時，國王隊決定留在Sacramento，但仍然需要一個新的場館。
2014年10月,開始原地重建新的場館, 於兩年後完工了!!
Vivek Ranadive's ownership group purchased a controlling stake in the Kings
in June 2013, with the entire franchise valued at $534 million. Forbes
estimated the Kings to be worth $1.075 billion in February.
Vivek Ranadive的集團於2013年6月購買了國王的經營權，整個經營權為5.34
億美元。 Forbes估計在二月份時國王的經營權為10.75億美元。
Granger's work didn't get the Kings any closer to winning an NBA title, but
he earns a lot of credit for ensuring their financial future is on stable
footing. He'll leave big shoes to fill for his eventual replacement.
格蘭傑的工作沒有讓國王更接近去贏得NBA冠軍，但他獲得了很大的信譽，以確保他們的財
務未來處於穩定的基礎。
