NBA.com - 10/07 - 4:49 PM EST (AP Photo)

The San Antonio Spurs announced today that they have signed Bruce Bowen to a contract extension. Per team policy, terms of the deals were not disclosed.

Bowen, a 6-7 swingman, is entering his seventh season with the Spurs. Last year he was named to the All-Defensive First Team for the fourth consecutive year and finished second in voting for the Defensive Player of the Year.

Last year Bowen was the only Spur to play in all 82 games and enters this season with a streak of 436 consecutive games played – and started – which is the longest active streak in the NBA and a Spurs franchise record. He is the Spurs all-time playoff leader in three-pointers made with 134 and ranks second on the Spurs all-time regular season list in three-pointers made with 529. [READ]

Garnett Leads Celtics To Victory Over Raptors

 가넷이 보스턴을 이끌며 랩터스를 제압했습니다...어제 소식이잖아 -_ -

ESPN - 10/06 - 9:23 PM EST

Kevin Garnett had 19 points and 16 rebounds in his Celtics debut, and Boston ruined Andrea Bargnani's homecoming with an 89-85 preseason victory over the Toronto Raptors on Saturday.

Paul Pierce added 21 points for Boston, while Ray Allen had an off night with only 10 points on 4-of-13 shooting.

The start of the NBA Europe Live tour marked the Celtics' first game since Garnett and Allen joined the team, creating a "Big 3" with Boston veteran Pierce.

"It was good to finally get out there and get our feet wet," Pierce said. "It was probably the best first game since I've been with the Celtics." [READ]

Heat PG Williams' Effort Pleasing Riley

 히트의 제이슨 윌리암스를 보고, 팻 라일리 감독이 그가 여름 동안 열심히 연습한 것 같다며, 기뻐합니다.

Palm Beach Post - 10/07 - 4:57 PM EST

The summertime reports on oft-injured Heat guard Jason Williams were glowing. And as he zipped around the court with relative ease in Friday night's intrasquad scrimmage, he again confirmed he was true to his rigorous off-season training program.

"I'm really pleased with him," coach Pat Riley said. "I think he has been a standout this summer."

If Williams continues at this pace, the payoff could be big for both him and the Heat.

The Heat needs a big season from Williams to solidify the point guard position. Williams also has incentive because he's in the final year of his contract.

The deal will pay him $8.9 million, but time isn't on his side. He'll be 32 next month, and this is his 10th season, which means his next contract could be his last. [READ]

Bulls' Gordon Wants $70M Extension

 벤 고든은 5년 70mil을 원하며, 불스는 커크 이상 줄 생각이 없습니다. 또한 루올 뎅과의 연장계약이 우선입니다.

New York Daily News - 10/07 - 4:53 PM EST

Ben Gordon wants a $70 million extension from the Bulls, who are looking to give Gordon no more than Kirk Hinrich money ($47.5 million) the New York Daily News reported Sunday.

It is also believed that Chicago wants to extend Luol Deng first, a player they regard more highly than Gordon at this point in time. [READ]

Drew Gooden Plans On MLB Career After NBA

 드류 구든은, 10년 쯤 뒤에 NBA에서 은퇴했을 때, 만약 자신의 팔이 괜찮다면 MLB에 진출해 보고자 한다고 하네요. 스타터를 의미하는 것이 아니라, 릴리프 피쳐라도 되고 싶다네요.

The Plain Dealer - 10/07 - 10:02 AM EST

Once his NBA career is over, Gooden wants a shot at the major leagues. Gooden, who worked out with former major league shortstop Barry Larkin in Orlando, Fla., two summers ago, wants to display his side-arm delivery.

"I'm serious," said Gooden, 26, who expects to retire from the NBA in about 10 years. "I'll be 35 or 36, but I'll have a fresh arm. I'm not talking about becoming a starter. I'll be a relief pitcher. I believe once I spend time working on it, I'll be able to do it."

Gooden, who competed against Indians pitcher C.C. Sabathia when they were growing up in the Bay Area, has not pitched competitively since early in high school. [READ]

Minnesota's Madsen Says He Will Return In 5 To 6 Weeks

 미네소타의 마크 맷슨이 어깨 수술을 잘 받아서 5-6주 안에 돌아올 것 같다고 합니다.

Pioneer Press - 10/07 - 9:58 AM EST

Timberwolves forward Mark Madsen said he is progressing well from surgery on his right shoulder and pectoral muscle. Madsen estimated he will return to action in "probably five or six weeks."

"It's tough to not be out there with the guys, but I'm doing my best to learn the plays, the new plays that (coach) Randy Wittman's putting in, and staying in shape running on the side," Madsen said Friday.

Madsen was injured in August during an accident on a personal watercraft. [READ]

Pacers Won't Give Harrison Extension Just Yet

 포텐셜만 믿고 뽑았고, 또 아직 포텐셜만 가지고 있는 데이비드 해리슨. 인디애나는 아직 그와 연장계약에 대해 이야기 하고 싶지 않습니다.

Indianapolis Star - 10/07 - 9:55 AM EST

The word "potential" and David Harrison have been paired since the Indiana Pacers drafted him in the first round more than three years ago.

However, constant foul trouble, injuries and a short-fuse temper have hindered progress for the fourth-year player.

Harrison's inability to show Pacers officials what he can do on the court on a regular basis could cost him a contract extension.

Pacers president Larry Bird said there has been no talk of giving Harrison an extension before the Oct. 31 deadline.

"We're going to let this play out for a little bit and see what happens," Bird said. "He's had a pretty good first week." [READ]

Raptors' Mitchell: Playing European Teams Not Ideal

 랩터스의 미첼 감독은, 유럽에서 준비하고 유럽 팀들과 시범 경기를 가지는 것이, NBA리그를 준비하는데 이상적이지는 않다고 말합니다.

Toronto Star - 10/07 - 5:38 AM EST

Raptor coach Sam Mitchell, whose club will play almost half its pre-season games against non-NBA teams, would rather not face the likes of Lottomatica Roma, Real Madrid and Zalgiris Kaunas.

While those games may be great for marketing and "growing the game" it's not an ideal way for a team to get ready, Mitchell said yesterday.

Toronto faces Lottomatica Roma today, plays Real Madrid in Spain on Thursday and hosts Zalgiris Kaunas of Lithuania in Toronto on Oct. 17, giving them three of seven pre-season games against teams they very likely will never see again.

European teams tend to play different styles than NBA teams and the rules are a hybrid of NBA and FIBA, which rankles Mitchell.

"I would prefer to play against other NBA teams just so our guys can see other NBA personnel, but the schedule is what it is." [READ]

GM Still Believes Ukic Will Be Raptor Some Day

 브라이언 콜란젤로 랩터스 GM은 Roko Ukic가 여전히 랩터스의 미래 계획에 포함되어 있다고 말합니다.

Toronto Star - 10/07 - 5:35 AM EST

President and general manager Bryan Colangelo said 23-year-old Roko Ukic remains a part of Toronto's future plans.

Playing for a compatriot Croatian coach for Lottomatica Roma in the top division of Italian basketball, Ukic is trying to recreate the buzz that made him a second-round pick of the Raptors in 2005.

He's trying to forget two lost seasons in Europe, years where he could hardly get on the court, much less make any lasting impressions.

The Raptors hold Ukic's NBA rights in perpetuity and will be following his progress closely this year.

"There is an awareness of him around the league," said Colangelo, admitting he's had at least one team call to enquire about obtaining him. "There is debate about a whether he's going to fit in the NBA.

"I still think his game is more suited for the NBA." [READ]

Rockets Wowed By Adelman's Offense

 로케츠 선수들은 릭 마델만 감독의 공격 전술에 놀라워 하고 있다네요. 프리스타일 이라고 하는군요.

Houston Chronicle - 10/07 - 5:31 AM EST

So far, Rick Adelman is getting rave reviews from his Rocket players for his offense, which will be much more up tempo and is bound to make opposition defenses work hard every night.

Adelman said his best offensive players, Yao and Tracy McGrady, will still be put in position to do what they do best. But players rave about the democracy and freedom in the offense so much, they might as well be running for office.

"It's a free style," guard Mike James said. "Coach wants us to figure it out for ourselves. He understands that in the game we're going to have to figure it out. He's teaching us how to do that now, in training camp. One thing about the offense, it's constantly flowing. Everybody is touching the ball. You use your teammates to help you get open to get shots. It's not like one person is creating, and everybody else is standing. It's constant movement all the time, and everyone is touching the ball."

"It's easier. The defense gets lazy. The defense doesn't like that much movement. They like when you are standing still, and one person is dribbling the ball and they can all key on that person. In this offense, the defense doesn't want to play defense for 24 seconds, and you're going to get a lot of backdoor cuts. You're going to get a lot of open looks. You're going to get a lot of times when there is a cut, there is going to be help and a double team and know you're going to be open for a shot." [READ]

Clippers' Livingston Progresses, But Not Ready For Full Practice

 클리퍼스의 리빙스턴이 천천히 가벼운 운동을 하고 있지만, 모든 연습을 소화할 정도는 아니라고 합니다.

L.A. Times - 10/07 - 1:26 AM EST

t has been more than seven months since Shaun Livingston severely damaged almost every part of his left knee in a game against the Charlotte Bobcats .

Since, he has made steady progress and started wearing a knee brace while performing some light drills last week. But it is still too early to determine when Livingston will return to the court.

"Right now, everything is one day at a time," he said. "All that stuff is coming along. But it's not like I can wake up the next morning and start running." [READ]
