Alvin Gentry, the lead assistant for the Golden State Warriors, had a second
interview with the New Orleans Pelicans for their vacant head-coaching
position, according to multiple reports.

根據多家媒體的報導：勇士隊首席助教Alvin Gentry曾經與鵜鵠高層二度會談關於鵜鵠
總教練職缺的事宜。

Gentry interviewed with Pelicans executive vice president Mickey Loomis and
general manager Dell Demps on Friday, NOLA.com reported.

紐奧良當地媒體指出：二度會談舉行的時間正是在昨天。Gentry昨天見到的鵜鵠代表，
有球隊執行副總裁Mickey Loomis與總管Dell Demps。

Sources tell ESPN's Marc Stein that Gentry and ESPN analyst Jeff Van Gundy,
to this point, have separated themselves from a field that no longer includes
Scott Skiles, who interviewed with the Pelicans earlier this week but on
Friday was named Orlando Magic coach.

ESPN資深記者透過消息源得知：Gentry與ESPN當家球評Jeff Van Gundy，是最有可能接
任鵜鵠總教練的兩位人選。至於原先也有意藉由面談爭取此職務的Scott Skiles，則因
為同一天已經與魔術簽約，確定退出鵜鵠總教練的競爭行列。

It remains unclear if the Pelicans will formally interview Tom Thibodeau in
the wake of his dismissal Thursday by the Chicago Bulls. In NBA coaching
circles, Thibodeau has been connected to the Pelicans job since it came open
May 12, partly due to his working relationship with New Orleans star Anthony
Davis dating to their time together with Team USA.

目前媒體還不清楚鵜鵠會不會正式會談不久前才被公牛開除的Tom Thibodeau(老席)。
事實上，早在五月中公牛第二輪被淘汰後，有關老席可能跳槽到鵜鵠的傳言就不斷冒
出來，而傳言興起的關鍵，正是老席先前在美國國家隊擔任助教時，就曾經與鵜鵠一
哥Anthony Davis合作過。

心得：看得出來鵜鵠總教練這個位置競爭程度還蠻高的，
畢竟鵜鵠只要有Anthony Davis還在，球隊就有希望！
只是不知道Gentry與鵜鵠會面的傳聞，會不會對勇士的士氣造成一定影響？

相對來說，NBA到目前為止教練有空缺但徵招不順利的也不是沒有，
這隻球隊就是同樣與鵜鵠位於西區，近年戰績也讓人失望的金塊
金塊有傳言想找砲轟大師Mile D'Antoni，但到現在老丹還是沒有積極回應，
也許是因為老丹認為金塊目前情勢混亂且整合不易？
