AP Interview: Haslem reveals why he chose to return to Heat
Haslem解釋為何他選擇回到熱火
MIAMI (AP) — Udonis Haslem arrived at the Miami Heat facility for a workout
one day last week, and was told he needed to sign a waiver before he took the
court.
Udonis Haslem在上禮拜有一天去到了邁阿密熱火場館去練習一下,結果他被要求說要先簽
個免責聲明,他才可以進場練習。
The reason: Technically, he wasn't on the team.
原因是: 就法律層面而言,他還不是熱火的球員。
"That was a little weird, having to do that," Haslem said.
「要先簽了聲明書這件事有點怪怪的,」Haslem說。
It won't be a problem for the next year. Haslem officially signed his
one-year, $2.4 million contract with the Heat on Monday, a deal that was
struck last week and finally became official when he put pen to paper. Haslem
will enter his 16th NBA season, all with the Heat, and that means the Miami
native will be with his hometown franchise for more than half of its 31-year
history.
明年就不會是個問題了。Haslem星期一跟熱火簽下一年240萬鎂的合約,這樁交易是在上周
開始進行,最後在他簽下名字後正式生效。這將會是Haslem第16個NBA球季,從頭到尾都在
熱火,這代表了這位邁阿密土生土長的球員會在這個有著31年成軍歷史的家鄉球隊一半以
上的時間。
"For the hometown kid in me, that means the world," Haslem said. "I wish I
understood how big that is right now, because I really don't, but I know it's
big."
「對於從小生長在這主場城市的我來說,這球隊就代表了我的全世界,」Haslem說。「我
希望我現在可以瞭解這件事有多重要,因為我真的不了解,但是我知道這是件大事。」
Haslem was the seventh-oldest player in the NBA last season — and will rise
at least one spot on that list this season, with the retirement of San
Antonio's Manu Ginobili. Vince Carter is 41 and will play for Atlanta, Dirk
Nowitzki is 40 and back with Dallas, and Haslem is 38.
