新奧爾良鵜鶘與總教練Stan Van Gundy同意分道揚鑣！

於上個月尾爆出將帥不和的新奧爾良鵜鶘（https://basketball.fanpiece.com/nbatriviafield/新奧爾良鵜鶘換帥在即-美媒爆出將帥不和-c1401807.html），今天官方宣布正式與總教練Stan Van Gundy同意分道揚鑣！


現年61歲的Stan Van Gundy是球隊歷史上的第七位主教練，今季帶領鵜鶘取得31勝41負常規賽戰績，可惜排在西岸第11位，無緣季後賽以及附加賽。

官方發表聲明如下：

鵜鶘籃球運營執行副總裁David Griffin表示：「代表Gayle Benson夫人（鵜鶘擁有人）和鵜鶘隊，感謝Stan Van Gundy在新奧爾良期間表現出的正直和專業精神，以及他為我們的團隊帶來的承諾和職業道德。這是一個艱難的決定，因為我個人和職業上都非常尊重他，但我們一致認為團隊的最佳利益，需要朝著不同的方向前進。我們祝願Stan Van Gundy和他們的家人在未來一切順利。」

引用“On behalf of Mrs. Gayle Benson and the Pelicans organization, I would like to thank Stan for the integrity and professionalism that he demonstrated during his time in New Orleans, as well as the commitment and work ethic he brought to our team,” said Pelicans Executive Vice President of Basketball Operations David Griffin. “This was a difficult decision as I have tremendous respect for Stan both personally and professionally, but we agreed it is in the best interest of our team to move forward in a different direction. We wish Stan, Kim and their family all the best in the future.”

Stan Van Gundy曾在邁阿密熱火、奧蘭多魔術、底特律活塞和新奧爾良鵜鶘執教，在非執教時亦曾與親弟Jeff Van Gundy作現場球評及旁述，是NBA球場上非常熟悉的臉孔。他的下一份工作會繼續是總教練，還是做回球評呢？
