Trading Dwight Howard to the Memphis Grizzlies was among his first moves after taking over the brass in an interim basis, one he claims was the quickest he’s ever completed. 剛上任的巫師總管Tommy Sheppard很快的在休賽季就大刀闊斧，希望在前總管Ernie Grunfeld被開除後很快就在制服組裡佔有一席之地。在他暫代總管角色的時候，他首先 做的幾件事情的其中之一，也是他說他有史以來做最快的一次交易，就是把魔獸Dwight Howard送到灰熊。 “The quickest trade I’ve ever done in my life,” Sheppard told ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski. 「我一輩子裡做的最快的一筆交易，」Sheppard告訴ESPN的Wojnarowski。 Howard had a very brief an injury-riddled stint with the Wizards, hurt from the time he stepped foot in training camp and marred by it through the course of the season. Howard在巫師的時間很短，傷病纏身，從進訓練營的時候就是這樣，一路到賽季結束。 Sheppard got to work quickly, getting star Bradley Beal on his side and approaching free agency by aiming for character and a winning reputation, selecting Gonzaga’s Rui Hachimura in the lottery and Tennessee’s Admiral Schofield in the second round. Sheppard很快就動了起來，先是拉攏住明星Bradley Beal，然後去找尋有特色且能贏球的 FA，在選秀日首輪選了Gonzaga大學的八村壘，第二輪選了田納西大學的Admiral Schofield。 Owner Ted Leonsis said he’s consider Sheppard for the job, but he first wanted to see him prove his worth to the organization. 巫師老闆Ted Leonsis說他認為Sheppard是適合這份工作的，不過他想先看到Sheppard能證 明自己是有這份價值，能當巫師的總管。 “I didn’t spend a lot of time with Tommy because of the hierarchy, but I told him: Let me see how you work,” said Leonsis. “Let me see how you handle the draft. Let me see a strategy document and a Plan A, Plan B and Plan C. He came back and said he needed assets and young players, and that we needed to connect the draft to free agency. Our big goal was to get more coachable players that fit a system that the coaches wanted to play, that would get us younger, hungrier players that would be helped by our development coaches. 「因為職級的關係我沒有太多跟Tommy相處的機會，但是我告訴他：讓我看看你要如何 做，」Leonsis說。「讓我看看你要如何選秀，我要看你的應變策略，你的A計畫，B計畫以 及C計畫。之後他來跟我說他需要有資產以及年輕球員，我們應該要把選秀跟FA結合。我們 的目標是希望找到受教的球員，可以融入我們教練團想要打的體系，而那會讓我們找到年 輕有衝勁的球員，他們將會從我們的教練團那得到幫助。」 “And Tommy is also a big believer — like us in ownership — that the world is a big place. He’s very fluent in the global view of basketball.” 「而且Tommy也是個夢想者--就跟巫師球團經營團隊一樣--認為這個世界很大，他對籃球有 著非常好的全球觀點。」 Sheppard patched the hole at center by re-signing Thomas Bryant, who entered last season as Howard’s backup — now boasting a spiffy three-year, $25 million deal after proving his worth during the 2018-19 campaign. Sheppard在交易走魔獸後與Thomas Bryant續約，補上了中鋒的漏洞。Thomas Bryant在去 年是擔任魔獸的候補--現在則是因為去年賽季優異的表現，證明了他的價值，拿到了三年 2500萬鎂的合約。 -- 魔獸: 好快的一把.....GG -- 標題 [公告] NBA 板 開始舉辦樂透! 4、雙十 = 兩隊四節打完107比107進入延長賽 開獎結果: 雙十 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 124.218.53.71 (臺灣) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/NBA/M.1563810988.A.4EB.html
