: SAN ANTONIO (AP)—Allen Iverson(notes) is generating plenty of talk about
: a possible return to the Philadelphia 76ers, but coach Eddie Jordan said
: Sunday that’s all there is to it right now.

最近有很多乳摸說AI很有可能回鍋76人，達叔說一切在星期日就會知道了。

: “I have not been oversaturated with Allen Iverson in my mind or in
: conversations with our front office,” Jordan said. “It’s like any other
: free agent out there. We’ve talked about a number of people.”

"我還沒想過Iverson該如何在球隊中運作，而且我們也還沒談過，"達叔說到。"這就像
有名自由球員在那。我們也已經和很多球員談過了。"

: Speaking to reporters before Sunday’s game against the Spurs, Jordan
: acknowledged Iverson has been discussed—a change from comments made hours
: earlier, when Jordan said after shootaround that he certainly “had not
: talked to anyone about Allen Iverson.”

達叔在星期天對抗馬刺之前跟播報員講說，他承認Iverson是被討論過－這個在不久前大
家都在討論過的話題，在比賽前的投籃訓練完後，他又說到"我們還沒跟別人說到我們在
討論AI.."

: Jordan earlier said the speculation was “probably more in the media than it
: actually is.” He said before the game Iverson was the most intriguing
: available free agent, but re-emphasized that the Sixers have not decided to
: add any players.

達叔說那些臆測只是"可能性比媒體報料的多一點點罷了。"在賽前他又說了Iverson是最
吸引人的自由球員，但重新申明七六人並不需要增加球員。

: Philadelphia arrived in San Antonio on a five-game losing streak, and point
: guard Lou Williams is expected to be out eight weeks after undergoing jaw
: surgery.

七六人在作客馬刺時已經是五連敗了，且球隊的控球後衛Lou Williams在下巴去開刀後預
計要八個禮拜才能歸隊。

: “We want to see how our depth will work out for us,” Jordan said. “We want
: to bring Elton (Brand) back, and that helps us. We’ll go from there.”

"我們想看看我們現在到底能做到多少，"達叔說"我們希望名牌能振作，這對我們的幫助
很大。

: When Iverson announced his plans to retire earlier this week, his statement
: hardly sounded like his mind was made up. Saying there is “a whole lot left
: in my tank,” Iverson said he felt strongly he could still compete “at the
: highest level.”

不久前Iverson宣佈他計畫退休時，他的退休聲明看起來他已經滿足一切了。
Iverson說，"我還有很多能量，我依然能夠在這個最高水準的舞臺上繼續奔馳。"

: A person with knowledge of the talks told The Associated Press on Saturday
: that the Sixers were approached about signing Iverson, and that team
: management had internal discussions about bringing Iverson back to the city
: where he spent 10-plus seasons.

有位線民在星期六跟媒體說七六人幾乎要簽下AI了，球隊的管理人員已經開始在內部討論
把Iverson帶回這個陪伴他十個球季的城市。

: The person, who spoke on condition of anonymity because talks have not been
: made public, said Iverson is among the free-agent candidates the Sixers are
: considering to replace Williams.

這位線民匿名的原因是因為這一切都還沒公開，也說了Iverson是可以替代Williams的自
由球員。

: Jordan, however, said he doesn’t think the Sixers necessarily need to sign
: anyone.

然而達叔卻說，他並不覺得七六人需要做任何補強。

: Jordan said Philadelphia’s biggest problem isn’t the backcourt but the
: absence of Brand, who has missed consecutive games with a sore right
: hamstring. The Sixers entered Sunday’s game at 5-11, tied for the
: third-worst record in the Eastern Conference.

達叔說七六人最大的問題並不是後場，而是名牌不斷的因為腿部肌肉疼痛而缺席比賽。
七六人在禮拜天前的戰績是5-11，排在東區倒數第三名。

: Rookie Jrue Holiday(notes) has started at point guard since Williams went out
: and has played nearly as many minutes the past two games as his first 10.
: Jordan says Holiday, who the Sixers took with the 17th pick in the draft, has
: shown plenty of promise.

新秀Jrue Holiday替代Lou Williams的先發控球後衛，最近兩場他的上場時間跟他開季前
十場的時間不相上下，達叔說，這個17順位的小夥子已經秀出他燦爛的前景了。

: Brand said players have talked about Iverson, and that he would welcome him
: to the team.

名牌説大家都在討論AI，同時他也很歡迎AI的加入。

: “We have some young talent, but we need wins,” Brand said. “If we were
: winning, we could kind of test it. But we kind of need to right the ship now,
: we feel, just for the fans and our own psyche. That may be the issue here.”
: Iverson has made it clear he doesn’t want to come off the bench. He would
: start over Holiday for now, but it’s not clear where Iverson would fit in
: once Williams returns.

"我們是有一些新人和潛力，但是我們需要贏球阿！"名牌說到。"如果我們贏了的話，我
們才有餘力去測試這些潛力和新人。但是我們現在需要一個方向阿。我們要給球迷一個交
代，同時也要重振我們的信心。"但是有個問題是，Iverson已經明確聲明他不想從替補上
場了，他現在可以替代Holiday，可是當Williams回來時，AI還能適應嗎？

: Iverson is a 10-time All-Star and was the NBA MVP in 2001, when he led the
: Sixers to the NBA Finals. Philadelphia traded him to Denver in 2006 and he
: played for the Nuggets until early last season, when he was traded to Detroit.
: Iverson signed with Memphis this season but played in only three games before
: taking a leave of absence to attend to personal matters. He was waived after
: the two sides agreed to part ways.

Iverson，這位十屆全明星、2001年的MVP球員，並且帶領76人闖進總冠軍賽。七六人在
2006年將他交易至丹佛金塊，上一季又被交易到底特律活塞，而這季與灰熊簽約的他僅
僅打了三場比賽，就跟灰熊說他要去處理私事而分手了。沒多久雙方就宣布解除了他們之
間的合約。

: Andre Iguodala(notes), the Sixers’ leading scorer, said his focus is more on
: getting Philadelphia winning again than Iverson possibly coming aboard.
: “He’s definitely one of those guys who has proven to be a great scorer in
: this league and a hard worker,” Iguodala said. “We would welcome anyone who
: come into our situation, whether it would be him or any other guy.”

小AI，這位目前七六人的得分王，說他現在更需要把注意力集中在如何贏得比賽，而不是
去關心Iverson是否會回來。"他無疑地是聯盟中一位偉大的得分機器，"Iguodala說。
"不管那個人是不是AI，我們歡迎任何人加入我們的團隊。"

PS總覺得翻的怪怪的..希望大家可以幫忙抓錯..XD
