San Antonio Spurs assistant coach Becky Hammon was reportedly on the radar of
the Milwaukee Bucks during their coaching search. Although Milwaukee
ultimately hired former Atlanta Hawks coach Mike Budenholzer yesterday, it
doesn't mean Hammon's chances at another NBA coaching job are over.
Becky Hammon之前被報導是公鹿的教練人選之一，而在昨天公鹿找來Budenholzer之後，
Becky Hammon的教練職面試也還沒結束。
The Detroit Pistons are one of three teams (the Orlando Magic and Toronto
Raptors being the others) who are still seeking a coach this offseason. The
Pistons parted ways with Stan Van Gundy on May 7 after he served as coach and
team president for four years.
底特律活塞是三支尚未找到新教練的球隊之一(另外有魔術和暴龍)，Stan Van Gundy在5/7時
一次被拔掉了擔任4年的總管和教練職位
According to Rod Beard of The Detroit News, the Pistons are expected to
interview Hammon as they begin their search for a new coach. Beard talked to
several Pistons players, who seemed open to Detroit potentially becoming the
first NBA team to hire a female coach:
跟據底特律當地報導，活塞希望能面試Hammon擔任新教練，從記者和一些活塞球員們的談
話中，球員們似乎很歡迎活塞成為第一個有女性總教練的球隊。
“She is an interesting — and by all accounts, qualified — candidate,” a
league source who declined to comment on specific coaching searches told The
Detroit News. “She’s a legitimate candidate for a head-coaching job,
alongside several other rising assistant coaches in the league.”
"她是個有趣的人，且從各方面來說，相當合格的人選。"一個消息來源對當地報導指出，"
在這麼多有潛力的助理教練中，她絕對是個合格的總教練人選。"
Having a woman as a head coaches isn’t as controversial to the players as
some of the national discussion would suggest.
“I’m not sure how others would receive it and I understand it may be a
transition that would have its own challenges, but I just want the best
person for the job,” Pistons point guard Reggie Jackson said.
有女性總教練這件事，對球員來說，也不像輿論中的那麼有爭議性。
"我不知道其他人能否接受，而我也知道這會很有挑戰性，我只想要最好的人選擔任我們的
總教練。"Reggie Jackson表示。
“I wouldn’t have an issue with it at all,” Pistons forward Anthony
Tolliver said. "It would take some getting used to at first but as long as
she knows what she’s doing, guys would respond just fine."
"我一點都不在乎。"Anthony Toliver說道，"第一次總是要去習慣一下，但只要她知道她
在做什麼，大家也都會接受的。"
Spurs coach Gregg Popovich hired Hammon to the Spurs coaching staff in 2014,
making her the first female full-time assistant in the NBA.
Hammon, a six-time WNBA All-Star, also made history in 2015 when she became
the first female coach in NBA Summer League, guiding the Spurs to a Las Vegas
championship.
Hammond played 16 years in the WNBA and was All-WNBA First Team twice and the
All-WNBA Second Team twice in her playing career. She was also named one of
the WNBA’s Top 15 Players of All Time in July of 2011.
Popo教練在2014年第一次聘用Becky Hammon擔任全職助理教練，同時，Hammon自己也是6
次WNBA全明星，還在2015的賭城夏季聯盟帶領馬刺拿下冠軍。
Hammon在WNBA打了16個球季，獲選2次第一隊和第二隊，也是WNBA史上最佳的15名球員之
一，
Beard also reports that former Pistons star Jerry Stackhouse could be in the
running for the job as well. He has served as the coach of the Toronto
Raptors' G League team, the Raptors 905, since 2016-17, and is also an
assistant for the parent club as well. He was named G League coach of the
year in 2016-17 and led the team to a title that season, too.
當地記者指出，前活塞球員Jerry Stackhouse也在教練競爭人選中，他目前是暴龍隊發展
聯盟的教練，他在2016-17拿過發展聯盟最佳教練。
Hammon, 41, would be the fourth Spurs assistant to interview for a coaching
job this spring. James Borrego, Ettore Messina and Ime Udoka have already
interviewed for several openings. Borrego was hired as the Charlotte Hornets'
new coach on May 10.
41歲的Hammon，也有可能是在James Borrego, Ettore Messina and Ime Udoka之後，第4
個近期開始面試的馬刺出身助教，而Borrego已經在10號獲得黃蜂的教練職位了。
心得:
活塞有第一個女教練的話真的帥爆
球員們似乎也都OK
