Nash在18年的球員生涯中從沒拿過冠軍戒指. 在去年擔任勇士隊顧問以球團人員的身
份終於拿到了他第一枚戒指. 但是在週一的電話訪談中,Nash表示他不希望在開幕戰
的戒指儀式中露臉:
"This is their moment. I couldn’t be happier to be part of a championship
team and, more importantly, this championship culture. But when you’ve
played 18 years in the N.B.A. and you win it all as a consultant, it
doesn’t feel right to do anything but stay in the background. I don’t
want to disrespect anything or upset anyone, but I don’t feel like
it’s my place to be there.”
"我為球員們感到高興. 我對能成為冠軍球隊的一份子感到興奮. 但是當你打了18年最
後以顧問身份拿冠軍,我覺得我就是應該站在幕後. 這不是對任何人不敬,但是我覺得
我不應該出來接受表揚."
對此,Kerr表示他能了解
“I don’t think Steve, for one second, looks back on his career and thinks,
‘Oh, my God, I didn’t win a ring,’ He has such great work-life balance.
John Stockton’s the same. Charles Barkley’s the same. Is there any
happier guy out there than Barkley? You can tell he’s having so much
fun on TV"
"我不認為Nash在回顧他的球員生涯時會因為沒有拿冠軍而覺得缺憾. 他跟Stockton,
Barkley都是一樣在退休後有充實人生. 你看Barkeley在螢光幕前那麼開心是像有遺憾
的人嗎?
