[外絮] Stotts與Griffin分手在一次投射練習後
https://reurl.cc/blmYgr
Milwaukee Bucks assistant coach Terry Stotts is stepping down, only four
months after he returned to the team, a league source said. Here’s what you
need to know:
The Bucks hired Stotts as an assistant in June, marking his return to the
franchise after he served as head coach for parts of two seasons from 2005-07
and as an assistant coach from 1998-2002.
Before his hiring this summer, Stotts spent two years away from coaching
after leading the Portland Trail Blazers for nine seasons (2012-21).
Stotts recently reunited with Damian Lillard, who he coached in Portland when
Milwaukee acquired Lillard in a trade last month.
密爾瓦基公鹿隊助理教練Terry Stotts即將辭職--而這只發生在他加入該隊4個月後。這些
是閱讀此篇前該要知道的前情提要:
1. 公鹿隊在六月雇用他為助教前,他已經在這個組織於2005-07作為總教練且於1998-02作
為助教效力過。
2. 在夏天雇用他之前,Stotts過去兩年在離開拓荒者後便沒有接觸任何執教工作(2012-
21)。
3. Stotts最近才與Lillard這名他在波特蘭執教過的球星重聚。
Bucks caught off guard
Bucks head coach Adrian Griffin discussed Stotts’ resignation during his
previously scheduled media availability on Thursday afternoon.
“It caught all of us off guard, of course, but again, you just support him,
” Griffin said. “He was a terrific guy. I learned a lot from him in a very
short time. He was really good at what he does. He made a decision – a
personal decision – and we just have to respect that.”
公鹿隊總教練Adrian Griffin在他星期四下午已經排定好的採訪時間討論了Stotts的辭職
。
Griffin說:「這讓我們都很驚訝,當然,但我重申,我們就是支持他。他是個很棒的傢伙
。我在這短暫的時間中從他身上學到很多。他在他的職務上表現得很好。他做出了一個個
人決定而我們應該做的就是尊重他。」
When asked for any reasoning given by Stotts for his decision, Griffin told
reporters that he didn’t feel that was a question for him to answer but
rather something that Stotts would need to clarify.
“You’re going to have to ask Terry,” Griffin said. “He’s a great coach.
I really enjoyed getting to know him. Terrific person. It was his decision. I
just wish him the best.”
當問到Stotts的離開決定有甚麼理由時,Griffin告訴記者他不認為這是個他該回答的問題
而應該交給Stotts去澄清。
Griffin說:「你們要去問Terry。他是一名很棒的教練。我很高興能夠認識他。很棒的人。
這是他的決定。我只能祝福他。」
Before getting traded to the Bucks at the start of October, Lillard had spent
11 seasons with the Blazers, nine of which were with Stotts as head coach.
Despite their close relationship, Lillard said he was just as surprised by
the decision as everybody else on the team.
“It kind of came out of nowhere,” Lillard said. “I’ve been in this league
long enough to know that these types of things happen. Everything continues,
so you’ve got to kind of process things like this and other things that may
come up and continue to move forward. For me, knowing Terry as long as I’ve
known him – playing for him for nine years and him also making this
transition for me easier just having a familiar face be such a huge part of
it – was a good thing. I think now that I’m settled in, to see him go is
unfortunate. It’s sad to see him go, but like I said, everything is still
moving forward.”
在十月初交易到公鹿之前,Lillard在拓荒者效力了11年,而這其中9年Stotts都作為總教
練與其共事。即便他們有如此親近的關係,Lillard也說他對於Stotts的離開與球隊的其他
人一樣感到驚訝。
Lillard說:「這有點突然。我在這聯盟已經夠久且知道這種事情會發生。日子還是得過,
所以你需要自己處理好這種事與其他事並繼續向前進。對我來說,我認識Terry很久了,為
他打球9年且他這種熟悉的存在是他更容易融入(公鹿)的助益。我覺得我現在已經安頓下來
了。看到他的離去還是會覺得遺憾。看到他離開我還是很傷感,但如同我說的,所有事情
還是得向前進。
Trouble between Stotts and Griffin
Although Griffin did not mention any sort of issue between himself and Stotts
on Thursday, their relationship was tenuous, league sources told The
Athletic, and there was a brief incident at Tuesday’s shootaround in
Oklahoma City.
According to sources who witnessed the events, Griffin wrapped up the
shootaround and called the team together for a huddle to close out the day
and let the players get to post-shootaround shooting drills. During that
huddle, Griffin informed the coaches that he wanted to have a separate huddle
with them once they wrapped things up.
雖然Griffin並沒有提及他與Stotts之間的問題,他們的關係其實十分脆弱。而在星期二於
奧克拉荷馬的一次投籃練習發生了一些意外。
目擊者指稱,Griffin結束投籃練習、叫大家集合結束了那天的訓練並讓球員去做一些投籃
練習後的投籃訓練。在這個集合時,Griffin告訴所有教練說他想要在全部結束後與教練們
單獨開個會。
When the players and coaches broke the huddle, Stotts went in the opposite
direction of the coaches’ huddle and instead started walking toward players
to discuss the offense. As Stotts attempted to start a conversation with
Lillard and Giannis Antetokounmpo, Griffin called to Stotts to join the
coaching huddle. When Stotts asked for some time with the players, Griffin
yelled for Stotts to join the coaches’ huddle. The incident occurred in
front of the entire team, those sources said.
While brief, the interaction highlighted the underlying complexity of the
relationship between Griffin and Stotts in their first year together in
Milwaukee. Around the situation on Thursday, there were two perspectives
surrounding Stotts’ resignation: His potential difficulty adapting to a
bench role under Griffin after more than a decade as a head coach, and the
other being a certain treatment and level of respect that needed to be shown
to someone with Stotts’ pedigree.
球員與教練解散後,Stotts並沒有走向教練會議而是走向球員們並與他們討論進攻。
Stotts嘗試與Lillard及Giannis Antetokounmpo開啟一段對話時,Griffin打斷他並叫他加
入到教練會議中。Stotts當時要求再與球員有一段時間,Griffin對Stotts喊叫以讓他加入
會議。而這個事件發生在整隊的面前。
簡單來說,這兩名教練之間的互動標誌了他們在密爾瓦基第一年就開始了複雜的關係。星
期四以前,圍繞Stotts辭職原因潛在兩種說法:一是他在擔任總教練超過10年之後無法適應
Griffin的板凳角色。另一種則是他並沒有受到他的資歷相應的尊重與待遇。
Griffin’s new approach and his relationship with Stotts
Griffin, a first-time head coach, has emphasized bringing a renewed sense of
energy to the organization. Throughout training camp, many players have
complimented Griffin’s emphasis on competitiveness and physicality and
enjoyed the way in which Griffin has gone about trying to instill more
toughness to the organization.
The Bucks hired Stotts to be Griffin’s lead assistant for multiple reasons.
Stotts has 13 years of head coaching experience with three different
franchises, including nine seasons with the Portland Trail Blazers, and his
offensive expertise would play well with Griffin’s defensive focus. Stotts
has a 517-486 record in his 13 seasons as head coach in Atlanta, Milwaukee
and Portland. Stotts could also be a useful resource for Griffin as he went
through various experiences for the first time as a head coach.
第一次擔任總教練的Griffin著重在帶給這個組織全新的能量。在整個訓練營,多名球員都
稱讚Gtiffin競爭與對抗的重心且享受Griffin將更多韌性帶到球隊的方式。
公鹿聘請Stotts來作為Griffin的頭號助教有許多原因。Stotts有13年並橫跨三支球隊的總
教練經驗--這之中包含了9年的拓荒者經驗,且他的進攻專長可以與Griffin的防守專業互
補。Stotts 13年在老鷹、公鹿與拓荒者的生涯中有517勝486敗的戰績。Stotts也可能可以
當菜鳥教練Griffin有用的資源以度過第一年總教練的各種情形。
Ultimately, though, the partnership between Griffin and Stotts was not meant
to be, and Stotts ended it with his resignation. Both Lillard and Khris
Middleton told reporters that they were given a heads up of Stotts’ decision
on Wednesday night with Lillard telling reporters that Stotts reached out to
him personally.
“We spoke directly,” Lillard said. “I don’t expect anything different. We
spend so much time around each other in this league. Seven, eighth months a
year, practice every day, flights, hotels, dinners, watching film, we share a
lot of intimate spaces and like I said, being with him for nine years and him
being my head coach, me being the point guard of his team, we spent a lot of
time around each other. We know each other really well, even in the two years
without him, we stayed in pretty consistent contact. So, I don’t expect
anything different than him to call me directly and that’s how it happened.”
最終,Griffin與Stotts的合作卻不如預期,而Stotts也以請辭作為合作的終點。Lillard
與Khris Middleton都告訴記者他們星期三晚上獲知了他的決定且Stotts私下聯絡Lillard
告訴他這件事情。
Lillard說:「我們直接交談了。我並不會期望任何事情發生改變,我們在這個聯盟已經與
對方相處了很長一段時間。每年7 8個月天天練球、搭飛機、住飯店、共進晚餐、看電影,
我們分享了很多親密的空間。就像我說的,跟他作為總教練一起共事9年,我作為他的控球
後衛,我們與對方相處了很久。我們與對方非常熟悉,即使是在這兩年沒有他的日子我們
也是不間斷的聯絡。所以,我對他直接打給我並沒有預期甚麼不同,事情就是這樣。」
Per a team source, the Bucks will take their time in considering all options
in filling Stotts’ spot on the staff.
公鹿也將會耐心考慮所有可以頂替Stotts位置的所有選項。
