Jeff Van Gundy今天将与火箭GM进行第二次的会面, 同时将参观火箭新球馆,还有平常季後练球的Westside club, 以目前情况来说,只要JVG点头,他将会是火箭下一季的head coach, Mike Dunleavy则变成备胎, 以下是一些人对他的评价: 1.以前也曾在他手下打过球的Glen Rice (P.S.那时还因上场时间不够对JVG有所微词,不过现在看来Rice对他的评价还是颇高的) "Right away, it's going to be different," said Rice, who played for Van Gundy for one season before he was traded to the Rockets. "Jeff has a very different approach to the game, different from Rudy (Tomjanovich), a very aggressive approach. "The defense will be much better. Practice will be totally different. There won't be any slacking off. Anytime you have a young team like ours , discipline and direction (are) very important. Jeff will change things. He will be very demanding, but the players will want that." 2.他的兄弟Stan Van Gundy "(The Rockets) have very good players who are young and will continue to get better. ... They were a good team, over .500. They just had a hard time making the playoffs in the West. I think he's proven he can coach. He definitely wants to be in a situation (where) he has good players. They definitely have them." The combination of Yao and Francis provides a foundation somewhat like the then-developing Lakers once had with Shaquille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant, even if the Rockets are not yet at the Lakers' level, Stan Van Gundy said. "You got a good perimeter guy and a good big guy, and he's a good coach to put talent together," Stan Van Gundy said. 3.现任尼克教头Don Chaney "It will be a great fit with Jeff and the Rockets," Chaney said. "He'll be ideal for Houston. Yao Ming will need a lot of teaching, and Jeff is a good guy to do that. And Jeff is a winner, a proven winner." 4.前尼克後卫Johnny Newman "He's a great teacher. He's a student of the game. And they have a lot of talent there. He's a great teacher of the game, very enthusiastic. If you don't have any energy when you get to the arena, he will have it and you will, too. He's going to put the guys where they need to be and control the guys. He's not a control freak. But he knows how to control the game and get guys the best opportunities." 5.前尼克名将Herb Williams "Houston has a lot of talent, a real good team," Williams said. "The thing about Jeff is: He came in after Don Nelson, but really, he came in behind Pat Riley. He stayed along those lines, but he changes some things to fit our team better. He can make changes. But the players have to ultimately change to the coach. He has to go out there and make the players trust in the coach. I don't think he will have a problem with that." 呵,如果真能签下JVG,明年还真令人期待~ 其实不是不喜欢Mike Dunleavy,只是感觉起来,他就像另外一个Rudy T 而Jeff Van Gundy是个彻头彻尾完全不同类型的教练~ 希望这星期周末就会有好消息 :) 想要看完整文章的, 请到 http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/story.hts/sports/bk/bkn/rox/1938462 对不起没办法像别的版一样翻译全文,可能等放假之後比较有空再说吧~ 等到以後板上讨论更热烈时或许会有更多人从事翻文的工作~ --
