By Marc Stein
If Devin Harris winds up in Denver as part of New Jersey’s long-running
attempts to complete a blockbuster deal for Carmelo Anthony, don’t
completely dismiss the idea that Harris could land back in Dallas with the
team that drafted him in 2003.
Don’t dismiss it because the Mavericks themselves haven’t ruled it out.
Harris is by no means seen as an ideal trade target by Mavs officials, since
they were the ones who initiated the deal with New Jersey in February 2008
for Jason Kidd and given the fact that Dallas needs wing scoring and
long-ball threats in the wake of Caron Butler’s season-ending knee injury
far more than they need another point guard.
However ...
Sources with knowledge of the team’s thinking confirmed to ESPNDallas.com
that the prospect of making a trade pitch to bring back Harris has been
discussed internally and will inevitably be broached with the Nuggets if the
2009 All-Star ends up in Denver.
Reason being: Dallas is well aware that the Nuggets have little need for
Harris thanks to the presence of the promising Ty Lawson and are looking to
reduce their luxury-tax bill. Also: Harris can create his own shot and thus
could provide one key offensive element Dallas has lacked since he left ...
although there would be obvious questions about how well he could function
alongside Kidd.
So desperate for Kidd’s playmaking, leadership and veteran know-how, Dallas
packaged two future first-round picks and $3 million in cash with Harris --
plus the contracts of Trenton Hassell, DeSegana Diop, Maurice Ager and the
rights to Keith Van Horn all for salary-cap purposes -- to get him back. But
the way Kidd has evolved, at 37, as a floor leader who also doubles as an
effective weak-side shooter that can likewise defend small forwards would
suggest that teaming him with Harris is hardly far-fetched. How often do we
see Kidd paired with Jason Terry and J.J. Barea in a three-man backcourt?
One team source, to repeat, made it clear that Harris is not their primary
target to fill the Butler void. Nor have there been any strong signals to
date to suggest that the Mavs have the time or ability to join the New
Jersey/Denver/Detroit trade talks as a fourth team that helps facilitate the
trade by taking on Harris.
The reality, furthermore, is that there would undoubtedly be considerable
competition out there for Harris if the Melo trade finally goes through and
the Nuggets make him available, with the Portland Trail Blazers (just to name
one team) known to be long-time Harris admirers and knowing how desperate
teams generally are for proven point guards.
But Harris is still relatively young (28 in February) and thus ranks as a
quality young(ish) player whom the Mavs already know a lot about. Which
explains why they’ll privately confess that, on some level, they do like the
idea of a reunion.
And the Nuggets, should the Melo deal ultimately go through at last, would be
eligible to move Harris again before the Feb. 24 trading deadline as long as
they don’t package him with any other Nuggets.
部分譯文:
如果在圍繞甜瓜(Carmelo Anthony)的大交易完成後,小哈(Devin Harris)被交換到丹佛
金塊,那麼他也許很快又會捲入其他的交易當中。據知情者稱,在03年將他帶進聯盟的達
拉斯小牛也許會就小哈與金塊接觸。
不要覺得吃驚,也暫時先不要懷疑這則消息,因為小牛自己都還沒有排除這種可能。
儘管他們在2008年將這位全明星後衛送至籃網,從而使老將基德(Jason Kidd)有了再次為
小牛效力的機會;儘管現在因為吸管(Caron Bulter)的受傷,小牛的當務之急是補強鋒線
實力,但是——
有消息稱,在小牛內部其實已經多次討論過讓小哈回歸的可能性了,並且,如果小哈真的
加盟了金塊,那麼小牛是很有可能和金塊坐上談判桌的。小牛的理由很充分:由於金塊的
後衛線上已經有了泰勞(Ty Lawson)這樣的潛力股,以及小哈自身的大合同,使得金塊已
經幾乎不需要小哈了。而從小哈自身特點來說,他有著超強的個人進攻能力和創造進攻的
能力,這使得他可以重新成為小牛的穩定火力點之一,但是這也許會帶來另一個問題:小
哈和妖基該如何使用?
目前的小牛十分需要集組織進攻、領袖能力,以及豐富經驗於一身的老妖基(Jason Kidd)
,所以他們也許會用兩個未來的首輪選秀權和三百萬美元現金去交易小哈,可能還要再加
個添頭(為了滿足金塊釋放薪金空間的需求)。但是,穩定的弱側投籃以及強悍的防守能力
,令37歲的基德看起來和小哈的風格還是比較互補的,儘管他已是“風燭殘年”。
當然,如果小哈真的加盟了金塊,那麼垂涎於他的肯定不只是小牛一支球隊。波特蘭拓荒
者此前就已經多次表示過對於小哈的濃厚興趣。不過,小哈究竟是重返達拉斯,還是有其
他情況發生,我們都必須先等待圍繞甜瓜的這樁超級大交易的到來。
