　　Wayne Embry became the first black general manager in any of the major professional sportswhen he was assigned to run the Milwaukee Bucks in 1972. Embry has witnessed theimprovements for blacks in everyday society and within the NBA and said he doesn’t want tosee this country revert to a time when attitudes and thoughts were less progressive.

　　韦恩·恩布里是专业体育世界中第一个黑人总经理，曾经在1972年负责运营密尔沃基雄鹿队。恩布里见证了黑人在NBA联盟中社会地位的逐步上升。他说他不想让这个国家回复到当初观念和思想都停滞的状态。

　　“We made progress, but we still have a way to go,” Embry said. “I wish we didn’t have todiscuss these issues, but we do because they keep popping up. I think you’ll see the NBA willtake steps. We can’t have another summer like we’ve had this year.”

　　“在种族的观念上，我们已经取得了进步，但是我们还是有很长的一段路要走”恩布里如是说道。“我希望我们以后将不再讨论这些话题，但是事实却不是我想的那样，相反的，我感觉这种话题反而在变得更加流行。我想你们能够看见NBA采取的一系列补救措施。希望明年夏天，再也听不到种族歧视言论的存在。”
