Sources: Kings progressing in discussions to hire Dave Joerger as coach

The Sacramento Kings are progressing rapidly in discussions with Dave
Joerger, with a Monday meeting that will include owner Vivek Ranadive being
the final hurdle to Joerger’s hiring as head coach, league sources told The
Vertical.

國王隊與Dave Joerger之間的討論進展迅速，星期一的會面將包含老闆Vivek Ranadive，

也會是聘請Joerger成為總教練的最後一道關卡。


The Kings fetched Joerger and his family in a private jet for a Sunday visit
in Northern California, and Joerger and Kings vice president of basketball
operations Vlade Divac spent considerable time discussing a partnership,
league sources said.

國王球團在星期天招待Joerger以及他的家人搭乘私人飛機，一同來造訪北加州

Joerger與籃球事務副總裁Vlade Divac花了很多時間討論彼此的合作關係。


The framework of a contract has been moving into place over the weekend,
taking the shape of a three-year deal in the neighborhood of $4 million a
year, league sources said.

合約的架構則是為期三年的合約，至於年薪大概會是落在400萬美元左右


Divac met with Joerger and shared ideas on how they would work together to
try to make the franchise a playoff team again. Sacramento has gone through
multiple head coaches and front-office executives in recent years, struggling
to find stability in the organization.

Divac與Dave Joerger見面，並且分享想法要如何攜手合作來讓國王再次成為季後賽的隊伍

最近這幾年以來，

國王隊歷經許多任總教練和制服組的管理高層，球團的內部缺乏著穩定性


For the Kings, Joerger represents the opportunity to hire a proven, winning
head coach who has distinguished himself in both the regular season and
playoffs.

Dave Joerger對於國王隊而言，代表著球隊能夠有一個機會，聘請曾經證明過在例行賽

與季後賽都能夠取得勝利的總教練


The Kings showed their seriousness in Joerger by using a private jet Saturday
to gather him in Tennessee and then get his wife and children in Nebraska,
bringing them together to Sacramento, league sources said.

球團使用私人飛機帶走人在田納西州的Joerger，隨後到內布拉斯州接走他的小孩和老婆

並且把他們一同帶往沙加緬度，這也顯示出國王隊對於Joerger的重視


After Joerger’s firing as Memphis Grizzlies coach on Saturday, the teams no
longer had to concern themselves with working out a draft-compensation
agreement, and the framework of a potential deal with the Kings started to
take shape immediately, league sources said.

Joerger在星期六被灰熊隊開除之後，國王隊就不再需要考慮利用選秀補償的方案

而且球團也立即開始草擬出大概的合約架構


Joerger will have the autonomy to hire his own assistant coaching staff, and
there’s doubt about his commitment to bringing members of his Grizzlies
staff with him to the Kings, league sources said. Elston Turner is expected
to join him, and another candidate – veteran NBA and college coach Bill
Bayno – is likely to join Joerger on the bench as well, sources said.

他將會擁有自主權來決定自己的教練團陣容

然而，是否會把他在灰熊的班底帶過來國王，目前仍然尚未確定

Elston Turner預計會加入教練團之中，而另一名候選人Bill Bayno

這位前NBA老將和大學教練，同樣也是有可能會成教練團的一員


After months of internal acrimony, Memphis fired Joerger on Saturday morning.
For the second time in three years, Joerger and his agent had sought Memphis’
permission to speak to other teams about head-coaching openings, with the
Kings foremost in those conversations, sources said.

經過幾個月內部的激烈討論，灰熊隊在周六早上決定開除Dave Joerger

在這三年以來的第二次，Joerger和他的經紀人向球團請求，能夠批准讓他向其他球隊來

商談關於總教練的事宜，而國王隊是其中最為積極的


As it became clearer that Joerger didn’t believe in the talent assembled in
Memphis – nor wanted to honor the two years left on his contract – Memphis
made the move to let him go.

Joerger並不信任在曼菲斯所匯聚的才能，而且也沒有意願執行剩餘的兩年合約

因此，球團只好選擇放他離開


In three seasons as head coach, Joerger was 147-99 (.598) and 9-13 in the
playoffs. The Grizzlies reached the conference semifinals in 2015, losing to
the eventual champion Golden State Warriors. Joerger spent 10 years in the
minor leagues as a coach before reaching the NBA as a Memphis assistant in
2007.

在這三個球季下來，帶兵戰績為147勝99敗 (勝率 59.8%)，季後賽則為9勝13敗

灰熊隊在2015年闖進西區的準決賽，但是敗給後來的總冠軍-金州勇士

Dave Joerger在發展聯盟擔任教練長達10年，之後在2007年起接任灰熊助理教練
