from the class of 1991, Nate "Tiny" Archibald. And I saved the best for last,
from the class of 1974, Bill Russell.
在我們開始今天的程序之前，我想要介紹幾個，今天在多羅多這個舞台上非常傑出的人物。
我們有2004年名人堂的Jerry Colangelo；1987年的 Rick Barry；2015年 Dick Bavetta；
1979年和2010年 Oscar Robertson；1996年冰人:George Gervin；2012年在我正後方的這一
位 Reggie Miller；2000年 Isiah Thomas；2015年Spencer Haywood；1991年綽號Tiny的
Nate Archibald。當然好酒藏甕底，1974年的 Bill Russell。
Before we begin today's program, I want to call up one of our legends to get
his thoughts today. First, Chairman Colangelo, would you join us? I'd also like
to invite one of the nominees from the international committee, Mr. Yao Ming.
Ladies and gentlemen, Yao Ming. Let's hear it.
在開始之前，我想要請當中的幾位傳奇來說幾句話，首先我想歡迎主席 Colangelo，可以上
來說幾句嗎? 還有我也想邀請另外一位，國際委員會中的 Yao Ming先生，各位先生女士，
我們歡迎Yao Ming分享一下。
Jerry, first of all, I'd like you to share your thoughts on the new process
that allows players like Yao Ming and others to be eligible this year.
Jerry，第一個我想邀請你跟我們分享，像是把 Yao Ming 還有其他候選人列入選拔資格這
樣新的程序，你的想法怎麼樣。
JERRY COLANGELO:
First of all, we took a hard look at what other Halls of Fame
are doing in terms of a wait period, and we were on the far end the wrong way.
So in reducing the wait period from five years to four years, it resulted in
this particular class a few people being eligible to be nominated and hopefully
be elected. So Yao Ming happens to be an individual who has had a remarkable
impact on the game of basketball in so many ways. Internationally, he's been a
real ambassador for the game, and he's very worthy of that nomination.
Jerry Colangelo:「首先，我們就退休年限上，仔細檢視了一下，而我們發現一直以來方向
是不隊的，所以我們把入選資格中，修改了原本退休後5年改為4年這個條件，就結果而言
這樣就得以讓一些人列入候選資格，並希望可以被選入。所以 Yao Ming 恰巧是一個以籃球
來說，各方面都有著極大影響力的人選。在對世界的影響上，他同時極具交流大使的身分，
他非常值得被提名。」
RICK KAMLA: No doubt about it. Thank you, Jerry, very much.
Yao, how does it feel to be nominated for the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall
of Fame?
Rick Kamla:「當然是無庸置疑的。非常謝謝你 Jerry。」
Rick Kamla:「Yao，被能被提名進入名人堂的感覺怎麼樣？」
YAO MING: Of course, very excited and I feel very honored to be here and to be
nominated by the Hall of Fame. The Hall of Fame is a symbol for all of the
basketball people who fight on the court or off the court. And for myself, it's
so exciting and I'm very appreciative for the community and all the people who
have chosen me.
Yao Ming:「當然是非常令人興奮，我也感到非常榮幸能夠參與並被提名，名人堂象徵並榮
譽著在場上及場下都拚盡全力的人。對我來說，我感到很開心，也很謝謝那些提名我的人」
RICK KAMLA: Maybe one last time, Shaq's right over there, we can jump center
one last time, right, Yao?
Rick Kamla:「或許最後一次，Shaq 也在現場，我們可以在舞台上玩一下跳跳樂對吧? Yao?
」
YAO MING: Well, I just worry about when we stand on the podium together, can
that floor handle our weight?
Yao Ming:「ㄜ...我擔心當我們一起站在舞台上的時候，真的可以承受我們的重量嗎?」
RICK KAMLA: Yao, thank you very much. Congratulations.
YAO MING: Thank you.
RICK KAMLA: Yao Ming, Jerry Colangelo.
Rick Kamla:「非常感謝 Yao，也恭喜你。」
Yao Ming:「謝謝。」
