老兵不死 細數(shù)NBA僅剩的90后老將們
Vince Carter
半人半神——文斯·卡特
The days of Vinsanity may be long gone, but the 2000 Slam Dunk champ can still punish the rim at 41 years old. His true value to NBA teams, however, is with the experience he brings. Which is why the Hawks, who are into the second year of their roster rebuild, signed Carter to a one-year contract in July.
"卡瘋狂"的日子可能一去不復(fù)返了，但是這位2000年扣籃大賽冠軍在41歲的年紀仍然能夠暴力虐筐。然而，對于NBA球隊來說他真正的價值是他給球隊帶來的經(jīng)驗。目前進入重建期第二年的老鷹隊也是因此，選擇在今年七月以一年合同簽下了卡特。
"This is probably Carter's final season before he transitions to broadcasting full time. He said this summer that he's "90-something percent" sure he'll retire at the end of the season." -- ESPN NBA reporter Tim MacMahon
ESPN NBA 的記者Tim MacMahon 報道說：“這很有可能是卡特的最后一個賽季，在這之后他將做一位全職的廣播員。他說這賽季結(jié)束后，他有百分之九十幾的可能性退役。”
Dirk Nowitzki
德國戰(zhàn)車——德克·諾維茨基
His production and his minutes have dropped in recent seasons, but the 40-year-old big man remains a tough cover on the perimeter. He shot 41 percent from 3-point range last season, and his presence on the floor still commands respects and opens up space for his team mates to operate.
最近幾個賽季，他的效率和出場時間均有下滑，但這位40歲的大個子仍然是讓對手頭痛的外線威脅。上賽季他的三分命中率高達41%，在場上依然值得讓對手特別注意他，從而為隊友拉開津貢空間。
"Nowitzki doesn't plan to make a decision on whether to retire until after this season. "I'm going to leave the door open on if I'm going to play another [season], but I'm going to approach this as if there's no tomorrow," Nowitzki said, citing how his body feels as the primary factor on whether he'll come back for a 22nd season." -- ESPN NBA reporter Tim MacMahon
ESPN記者報道說：“在這個賽季沒有結(jié)束前，諾維茨基并沒有計劃作出是否退役的決定。”老司機說：“我還是會給是否退役留下選擇空間，不會把話說死，但是我會把每個賽季都當成最后一個來打。”諾維茨基對自己的身體狀況的感覺是他能否回歸第22個賽季的首要因素。
Jason Terry
噴氣機——杰森·特里
Terry insists that he's going to play a 20th season, and the team that takes a chance on him will get a shooter that can still fill it up from long range. Terry, who moved to shooting guard in the 2006-07 season, saw his 3-point percentage fall to a still respectable 34.8 percent last season. But in 2016-17, he recorded the second-highest 3-point percentage of his career at 42.7 percent.
特里聲稱他將要打第20個賽季，那些愿在他身上試一下的球隊，將會得到一個靠譜射手。特里自2006至2007賽季以來改打得分后衛(wèi)，剛開始他的三分命中率經(jīng)歷過下滑，但仍然達到了可觀的34.8%。2016-17賽季他的三分命中率高達42.7%，這是他職業(yè)生涯第二高。
"This might not be up to Terry, who is still waiting for a call this summer. "-- ESPN NBA reporter Tim MacMahon
“這可能無法由特里決定，這個夏天，他仍然在等待某個球隊經(jīng)理的招募電話。” ESPN NBA 記者TimMacMahon報道。
Manu Ginobili
馬努-吉諾比利
Manu Ginobili, who will make a possible return in 2018-19, was selected by the Spurs in the second round of the 1999 NBA draft but didn't make his league debut until 2002.
在1999年NBA的選秀中，馬努-吉諾比利在第二輪被馬刺選中，但是直到2002年，馬努才進行了他的聯(lián)盟首秀。
