Marcus Morris said the Suns trading him without informing him was a “slap in the face.”
Marcus Morris说太阳在交易他的时候完全没有知会他,就像在他脸上打了一巴掌。
Really, he says his problems with the franchise run much deeper.
“I felt disrespected the entire time I was in Phoenix,” Morris said. “Even though I was playing well, I still didn’t feel like I had a real opportunity to grow. Anytime a team trades you away like that, it’s a slap in the face. I still feel disrespected, and I feel like I want to disrespect them.”
Morris will get that chance tonight, when his Pistons visit the Suns.
Marcus说他和太阳的问题越来越深。“我在太阳的这段时间,我感到相当不受尊重。即使我打得不错,但我从不觉得我有机会在这里继续成长。如果有任何一支球队用这种方式把你交易掉,那就像是在你脸上打一巴掌。我觉得我不被尊重,而我现在想要让他们也体会这种感觉。”
Morris在今天活塞对上太阳的比赛中将拥有这个机会。
But this raises the question: Why did Morris sign a contract extension with Phoenix? He had been with the Suns more than a year-and-a-half when he and his twin brother, Markieff Morris, re-upped for $20 million over four years and $32 million over four years, respectively.
不过这也让人不禁想问:为什么Morris当初要和太阳签延长合约?他在太阳待了超过一年半的时间,还和他的双包胎兄弟Markieff Morris一起签了分别为四年20M跟32M的延长合约。
“It was really just to stay with my brother, because we wanted to play together,” Marcus said. “That was one of our main goals, and we wasn’t being greedy. A lot of players in this league, they stick, they stick, and they dig. They want all the money. And some of them are not even worth it. I thought just for us to stay together the next four years for $50 million was worth it to us. From where I come from, that’s a lot of money.”
“我只是想和我兄弟待在一块儿,因为我想和他一起打球。”Marcus说道。“那是我们其中一个目标,并不是什么很贪心的愿望。在这个联盟有很多球员他们一直在追求金钱,那是他们唯一的目标,但有些人甚至不值得那份薪水。而我只是想要我们待在一起,如果是50M的合约让我们能够在接下来4年在一起打球,我想对我们来说已经值得了。毕竟看看我们来自的地方,这已经是很大一笔钱了。”
As those contracts look team-friendly, a reporter suggested Marcus was good to the Suns.
“I was great to them,” he said. “…I let relationships overcome business, and that’ll never happen again. So, I’m learning from it. My brother’s learning from it. I’m going to continue to grow.”
Marcus seems happy starting in Detroit – a role he coveted in Phoenix. Markieff says he wants to be with the Suns after practically daring them to trade him.
这份合约对于球队来说也算划算,一位记者告诉Marcus那对太阳非常不错。
“我对太阳太好了。”Marcus说。“我让我们的情谊超越了生意,但我再也不会这样做。从这次的事件我和我的兄弟都记起教训了,我将要继续成长。”
Marcus去到活塞后似乎过得还不错,那是不同于在太阳的角色。而Markieff则选择继续待在太阳,即便他曾经希望太阳把他交易掉。
