NBA总裁David Stern日前在出席斯蒂芬-史密斯脱口秀接受采访时表示，圣安东尼奥马
刺是联盟球队管理的典范，至于波波维奇在比赛间隙接受采访时的“不耐烦”， 他也
表示了理解和支持。
“It is always a treasure to look at a well-managed team, to see how they do
at the gate, as a matter of business and on the court. I think San Antonio,
everyone can agree, is a model of how a team, you would hope if you owned it,
would be run. They’ve been competitive for a long time.
Stern说：“看到一支管理有方的球队终归是一笔宝贵的财富，看看他们是如何运作的，
不只是在商业运作方面，还有在球场之上的表现。在我看来，马刺就是球队
管理的典范，这一点我想所有人都认可。如果你有一支球队，我想你也希望
它能经营得像马刺这样。他们已经保持了相当长时间的强大竞争力。”
“As their competition would say, it sure helps to have Tim Duncan. But when
you look at what they surrounded him with, and the way they’ve gone into the
international market, they’re really very excellent at what they do. And
they bring people into a building that’s relatively new but continually
updated. That makes me very happy, as does Oklahoma City, as does watching
what Portland is doing this year.
Stern说：“他们的战绩说明了一切，当然拥有Tim Duncan这样的球员肯定会有很大帮助
。但是看看他们的其他球员，他们在开拓国际市场中的表现，他们在球队运
作方面真的是做得很棒。他们把一些新球员吸纳进来，紧接着不断改进和提
高。看到他们如此出色的表现我感到很高兴，雷霆也是如此，今年的拓荒者
也是一样。”
在担任联盟总裁30年之后，Stern将于明年2月1号正式退休。当被问及波波维奇同媒体微
妙的关系时，他还替马刺主帅说了好话。
“I kind of enjoy it. I’m not allowed to say that until February 1. If Pop
wants to have some fun…it’s a big act. Come on. He’s having fun, he’s
making statements. People are waiting to see what he says or doesn’t say.
But by and large, I must tell you, we’re in the huddles, we’re bringing our
fans close up. Frankly I have my own view about grabbing a coach in the
middle of the game. I know our network partners love it. I’m sort of more
interested in what’s going on in the middle of the huddle.”
Stern说：“我挺喜欢他这样的。等过了明年2月1号我才能畅所欲言。但只要他想，波波
完全可以把你逗得很开心。他是个很有意思的人，对自己的想法毫无保留。
人们每次都很期待他接下来会说些什么，会有怎样的举止。说实话，我对在
比赛当中采访教练也有自己的看法。我知道这是我们的网络工作者所希望看
到的，而我对在这个过程中所发生的一切事情也会更感兴趣。”
