HOUSTON — Sixteen years in the NBA can be a blur, Al Harrington can attest
to that. He lived it.
On Wednesday, he recounted near two-decades worth of just sheer fun, allowing
the words that put an end to things kick off the conversation.
He sat courtside at the Toyota Center after helping out during a Nuggets
practice, and finally said it.
"I'm officially retired," Harrington said. "I don't know if there's paperwork
that I gotta fill out or anything. But my career is over."
And what a career it was.
He'll be known for a number of things, the least of which was being one of
the first true success stories of the prep-to-pros era. A first-round pick of
the Indiana Pacers in 1998, he'd only begun playing organized basketball four
years earlier for St. Patrick High School in Elizabeth, N.J.
"I'm very happy with what I was able to accomplish," Harrington said. "I was
able to change a lot of people's lives in my family, including myself in a
game that I eventually fell in love with and will always be in love with. And
hopefully I can stay around the game until I die. It was a fun ride. It went
by fast, too. It was like one minute I was 18, the next I was 25 then was 30
and now I'm 35. It was a fun run. Met a lot of great people."
现年35岁,效力NBA16年的Al Harrington宣布退休。
Al Harrington表示:“我已经正式退休了,我不知道是否有啥相关表格个要填,
但我的职业生涯已经结束了。”
Harrington,1998年第一轮第25顺位,
职业生涯打过981场比赛,场均得到13.5分5.6个篮板。
在效力溜马期间,他曾随队闯进总决赛,当时他只是替补,
在2004年,他场均得到13.3分6.4篮板,帮助球队杀进了东区决赛。
他的巅峰期在老鹰和勇士,在勇士打的42场例行赛里场均可以得到17分,
与球队一起在季后赛首轮上演了老八传奇。
对此,Harrington说:
“我很满意我所完成的那些成就,我有能力改变我很多家人的生活,包括我自己,
我永远都热爱篮球。我希望能一直陪伴篮球直到我死去那刻,这是一段有趣的旅程。
这段岁月过得太快了,感觉一分钟前我还是个18岁的小伙子,
下一刻就变成25岁、30岁了,而现在我已经35岁了,
这是一段有意思的经历,我碰到了很多很棒的人。”
