Monty Williams and Tyronn Lue are both being told to stay away from the
Lakers head coaching job
Monty Williams跟Tyronn Lue都被告知说 不要去接湖人总教练的位置
Last we heard, Rob Pelinka was conducting interviews for the Los Angeles
Lakers prospective head coaching search. He was granted permission to meet
with Philadelphia 76ers assistant Monty Williams and Miami Heat assistant
Juwan Howard, and obviously didn’t it need it for free agent coach Tyronn
Lue.
之前听到,湖人总管Rob Pelinka正在进行面试湖人教练候选人,他被允许可以与费城76人
助理教练Monty Williams以及迈阿密热火助理教练Juwan Howard以及不需要球团同意就可
以面试的Tyronn Lue。
Williams and Lue appear to be frontrunners for their own reasons but in each
case, the Lakers might be running into a fairly embarrassing problem: People
close to both former head coaches are being advised to stay away from this
organization given how chaotic things appear to be. So there’s that.
Williams跟Lue似乎是目前最有可能当湖人教练的人选,但是湖人现在面临到一个很尴尬的
问题:基于湖人现况乱糟糟的状况下,与这两个人亲近的人都建议他们离湖人球团远一
点。
During an appearance Wednesday afternoon on ESPN 710 with Mason & Ireland,
Ramona Shelburne said the following about Williams (emphasis mine):
ESPN记者Ramona Shelburne在星期三的ESPN节目里说到:
“I think Monty’s the favorite, but I don’t know how that interview went
last night. I haven’t heard from either side and it also is a choice for
him. He’s probably in line if Philly opens up. If they lose or if they fall
short, he’d be in line to step in there. His kids are settled there, he’s
done a lot of moving around, so I could see him stay there. And also,
everyone in the league has told him not to take the job.”
“我认为Monty最有机会,但是我不知道他们昨天面试的结果究竟如何。我目前都没听到双
方的说法,而且Monty自己也需要做抉择。若是费城人开缺,他就可能有机会留下;所以若
是他们季后赛没走远,他就有可能可以接教练位置。他的小孩都在那里,他已经换了很多
地方,所以他可能就会选择留在费城。而且,每个NBA圈子里的人都叫他不要接受湖人的工
作。”
Great.
蒸蚌。
Tuesday evening, Jorge Sedano of ESPN said Lue has been given similar advice
from those close to him:
星期二的时候,ESPN记者Jorge Sedano也说Lue也有从身边好友那接到类似的建议:
“So I told you earlier, and I mentioned this yesterday, that someone I know
that is a mutual friend with Ty Lue, that is a very close friend to Ty Lue,
told me, ‘I told Ty, don’t take the Lakers job. This thing is a mess.’”
“我早些时候说过,我昨天也提到,我跟Lue有个共同的朋友,他跟Lue很亲近,他跟我
说,‘我告诉Ty,不要接受湖人的工作,这是个烂缺。’”
Great, great.
蒸是蚌。
Honestly, Honestly, it’s hard to contextualize this at all in a way that
doesn’t look outright bad for the Lakers. I could technically say that you
never want to go into an interview appearing desperate and, as such, might
want some of this stuff out there, but this really doesn’t speak well to the
current state of the Lakers organization.
老实说,听完这些消息,要把他们当作湖人不会有问题真的很困难。从技术层面上来说,
在面试的时候,绝对不可以表现出非你不可的样子,要保守一些,但是以湖人现在的状况
来说是不可能的。
The fact of the matter here is either the Lakers really don’t have a good
reputation around the league or they’re truly terrible at managing the
narrative surrounding them.
现在摆在台面上的状况,要嘛湖人在联盟里就真的是声名狼藉,不然就是他们在带舆论风
向上真的很逊。
We’ve seen shot after shot at everyone involved in this “mess.” Rob
Pelinka has taken hits. Jeanie Buss has been criticized in ways she hasn’t
been before. Magic Johnson, maybe the most celebrated Laker of all time,
stepped away rather than face any more of this noise (though there obviously
might be more to this story to come).
可以看到每个跟这个烂缺有关的人都中枪了,Rob Pelink被攻击,Jeanie Buss也受到前所
未有的批评。而最受爱戴的湖人球员魔术宁可下台也不要再听到那些外界的声音。
No matter what direction the Lakers go next, they’ll have to repair either
their reputation or their ability to manage it.
不管湖人要走往哪个方向,他们真的得要好好修补一下他们的名声,或者要有能力可以处
理外界的评论。
All this could be made moot as soon as either Lue or Williams takes the job
and, as Sedano pointed out, Lue is going to make his own decision. Williams
will, too. In a vacuum, the Lakers gig is still intriguing and it’s only one
of 30 NBA head coaching jobs in the world.
这所有的难堪都可以在Lue或者Williams接受当湖人教练一职后就无关紧要了,但是就如同
Sedano指出,Lue会自己作决定,Williams也是。在不考虑其他外界的因素下,这湖人的工
作还是挺吸引人的,毕竟这世界上只有30个NBA总教练的缺。
The problem is, coaching the Lakers was once seen as the head coaching job.
Running the Lakers was seen as the top job in the NBA if not American
professional sports. But given how things are currently being run, people are
distancing themselves so long as the Lakers refuse to get out of their own
way. Here’s hoping that changes, and quickly.
问题是,曾经执教湖人一度被视为是教练的首选,管理湖人过去被视为是NBA里最顶尖的位
置。但是看到现在湖人的管理状况,若是湖人球团还是拒绝改变他们的方式,人们会跟湖
人保持距离。希望湖人会有改变,而且要快。
