: Allen Iverson Just Might Have To Retire

: Allen Iverson said last season after being trade to the Detroit Pistons for
: point guard Chauncey Billups that he would rather retire form the game of
: basketball than not be a starter and come off the bench.

AI說在上季他被交易到底特律活塞換取槍西時，他寧願退休也不願打替補而不是先發。

: Well Iverson just might have to retire than, all four teams that are in
: discussions of acquiring point guard Allen Iverson want him to be a bench
: player. This doesn't mean Iverson wont see ample playing time on the basketball
: court and, he will likely play the entire fourth quarter if he does decide to
: except the role.

就在AI想著退休的同時，有四支球隊正在考慮讓控球後衛AI去打替補。這並不表示AI不會
有大量在場上的時間，他可以打滿整個第四節。

: Think of Lamar Odom last year during the play offs, even though he came off the
: bench to start the game he averaged the second most minutes on the court just
: behind shooting guard Kobe Bryant.

想想Lamar Odom在上一季季後賽的表現，即使他從替補上場，他的上場時間還是場上第二
多的，僅次於得分後衛Kobe Bryant。

: The Memphis Grizzles and The Las Angeles Clippers have retracted the offers
: they recently made to Allen Iverson giving up hope on acquiring the super=star
: talent.

灰熊和快艇收回了他們最近給AI的條件，放棄了這位超級明星??

: Though Iverson is not known as a pass first type of point guard he is still a
: very effective NBA player. In over 10 NBA seasons Iverson has averaged over 7
: assist on 7 separate seasons, he has a career average of 2.2 steals a game and
: over 3 rebounds a game in his career.

雖然AI眾所周知的並非是傳球第一的控球後衛，但是他仍然是NBA中有效率的球員。在AI
超過10年的生涯中，他有七記傳出超過7次以上的助攻，同時有著生涯2.2次抄截，然後
還有超過3籃板的生涯平均。

: Iverson has never averaged less than 20 points a season until last year
: and, is the 16th leading scorer all time in the NBA and second leading score
: all time among active players. Not to mention 10 all-star appearances and 4
: scoring champion titles.

Iverson到上季以前還沒有一季場均不到20分，這位NBA歷史中排名第16位，而且是現役球
員中總得分第二的球員。更別提到10次全明星賽和4次得分王頭銜。

: At only 34 years of age, that's younger than Jason Kidd and Steve Nash, Allen
: Iverson can still can't find a job even though all his career stats except
: assist rank higher than those two for mentioned point guards. Well Kidd
: averages more rebounds per game than Iverson but, Kidd rebounds like a forward
: for his size.

Iverson目前只有34歲，還比Jason Kidd和Steve Nash年輕，AI到現在都還找不到工作因
為他整個生涯的助攻數都沒超過過上述那兩位。Kidd的籃板也超過AI不少，不過Kidd的
籃板數已經像一個前鋒一樣了。

: The Heat and The Bobcats seem to be the only two teams left to actually pull
: the trigger on signing Iverson. Still nothing has become final and Iverson and
: his agent are hopeful some team will want his services as the season nears.
: In an NBA TV phone interview Iverson said "I Just want to play were i can be
: happy". I hope Iverson does find a team to sign a contract with, If not he
: will be happy at home watching NBA games with his kids on the big screen.

熱火和山貓看起來是剩下的唯一兩隊還可以真正去簽下Iverson的。在尚未決定前，AI和
他的經濟人希望有支球隊能在季賽快來臨時簽下他。在一次NBA的面談中，Iverson說到
"我只想在我可以開心的地方打球。"我很希望他可以找到一支簽下他的球隊，如果沒有，
那他也可以在家陪小孩開心看著NBA。
