DALLAS — After playing in just 28 combined games over the last two NBA
seasons due to nagging injuries, new Dallas Mavericks center JaVale McGee
says he was led to the team this offseason by its exceptional training staff.

However, with a goal of taking the court at 100 percent this upcoming season,
McGee also acknowledges that he has something to offer the Mavericks as they
attempt to fill the void at center following the free-agent departure of
Tyson Chandler to Phoenix.


因為不斷的傷病纏身, McGee在前兩季加總只打了28場比賽, McGee的目標是在本季打出

100%的狀態, 而小牛隊試著補下Tyson Chandler留下來的空缺, McGee了解他必須要對

小牛做出些貢獻.


McGee holds career averages of 8.4 points, 5.5 rebounds and 1.8 blocks in
19.9 minutes per outing during his seven-year career, making 158 starts in
382 total games with Washington, Denver and Philadelphia. He’s also a career
54-percent shooter from the field, showcasing an ability to finish above the
rim with flair.


歷經職業生涯7年的McGee場均數據為19.9分鐘, 8.4分, 5.5籃板以及1.8火鍋. 在巫師,

金塊及76人時期, McGee共打了382場比賽, 當中有158場先發. McGee生涯FG%則有54%,

展現了他的灌籃天賦.


Suiting up in only five games for the Nuggets during the 2013-14 season,
McGee comes to Dallas with concerns about his health following only 23
appearances for Denver and Philadelphia during the ’14-15 schedule. He now
hopes to have a bounce-back season with the Mavs, looking to challenge for
the starting center spot during training camp before attempting to capture
the NBA title with his new team.


McGee在13-14球季只為金塊打了五場比賽, 14-15賽季, McGee更只在金塊及76人隊出戰

共23場比賽, 因此這不免讓人擔憂McGee在小牛的健康狀況. 現在, 加入小牛的McGee希望

能在新賽季反彈, 更想在小牛拿下總冠軍.


“It’s definitely a great experience,” McGee said while addressing his
addition to the team Wednesday in an exclusive interview with Mavs.com.

He added: “I’m extremely excited to be here, and it’s just a real positive
experience. I’m glad to be here. … All I’m looking forward to is winning
and winning a championship.”


"這絕對是個很棒的經驗," McGee在接受Mavs.com專訪時提到. 他又補充: "能加入小牛隊

讓我非常的興奮, 這是一種很正向的感覺. 我很榮幸自己能在這裡. 我所期待的事就是

不斷地奪冠."


Playing in 17 games with the Nuggets and six with the 76ers, McGee averaged
4.6 points, 2.7 rebounds and 0.9 blocks in 11.1 minutes per contest last
season before being waived by Philadelphia in March. He then signed with the
Mavericks as a free agent on Aug. 13, inking a reported two-year deal worth
the league minimum with a team option in Year 2.


上一季McGee在金塊出賽17場, 76人出戰6場, 在這期間內他只有場均11.1分鐘的出場時間,

拿下4.6分, 2.7籃板以及0.9火鍋, 而在今年三月McGee則遭76人揮棄. 之後到了8月13日

McGee以自由球員的身分與小牛簽約, 據報導指出此份合約為兩年的底薪約, 第二年則是有

球隊選項.


McGee now plans to lean on the expertise of Mavs head athletic trainer Casey
Smith to get back on the court, vowing to showcase the athleticism that made
him an attractive prospect for the Dallas front office in free agency.

“That was one of the major things about (signing with the Mavericks),”
McGee confessed. “With how good the training staff is and all the training
materials that they have and other teams don’t have, it’s definitely a good
thing.

“I’m definitely getting back to that elite level. The injuries really
slowed me down, so I’m definitely going to get 100 percent healthy and come
out and give it my all.”


McGee預計要依賴小牛訓練師Casey Smith的幫助以讓他重返球場, 在自由市場開始時,

他的運動能力吸引住了小牛隊制服組, 而他也發誓自己會施展小牛隊所看重的運動能力.

"這是(與小牛簽約)其中一個重要的因素," McGee坦承. "小牛有其他球隊沒有的訓練師及

訓練器材, 這絕對是件好事."


"我正在回歸精英級的水準. 傷病真的拖累了我, 我現正回歸到100%的健康狀態, 而且我將

會給出我有的全部."


And with his prior injuries now in his rearview mirror, McGee says his
athleticism will quickly set him apart from the rest of the players at his
position on the Mavs’ roster.

“Well, I definitely feel like we’re different players, the centers that we
have, so it’s definitely going to be good competition,” McGee explained. “
But that’s what basketball is for, competition, so it’s definitely going to
make us all better.


就跟他同樣位置的小牛球員來說, McGee認為自己的運動能力會很快的讓他看跟那些球員

不一樣.


"我真的覺得自己跟他們是不同的球員(小牛中鋒們), 這絕對會是個良好的競爭," McGee

解釋. "籃球就是個競爭, 而這絕對會讓我們都變得更好."


“It’s definitely a positive thing, being a leaper as I am and a shot
blocker and a dunker, so that’s definitely what teams need. I’m just
somebody who keeps it simple, who dunks the ball, blocks shots and is just a
presence in the paint. … [Mavs coach Rick Carlisle] just wants me to keep it
simple, and just play as hard as I can and be a presence in the paint.”


"我就像原本的我一樣當個跳躍者(leaper), 當個蓋火鍋, 灌籃的球員, 這無疑對我是

件正面的事, 而這也是球隊都需要的. 我會讓這些事變簡單, 我灌籃, 蓋鍋, 出現在油漆區.

(Carlisle)只要我讓這些事變得簡單, 他要我盡自己的全力, 要我出現在油漆區."
