[外電] Suns looking toward 2012 free agency
Phoenix Suns looking toward 2012 free agency
The payroll sheets show that the Suns have six players under contract for the
2012-13 season: Marcin Gortat, Channing Frye, Jared Dudley, Markieff Morris,
Hakim Warrick and Josh Childress.
明年太陽只有六名球員有約在身,分別是Gortat、Frye、Dudley、Morris、Warrick及
Childress
The rest is hopeful conjecture about whether the Suns could attract an elite
free agent or two, re-sign Steve Nash and define just what they will be
moving forward.
剩下的就是太陽能否吸引一到兩名優秀的自由球員,並重簽Nash,然後決定球隊的方針
This year's tempered off-season moves were done with July in mind. The Suns
were trying to preserve the salary-cap space they will have to pursue free
agents. They would like to land an elite player with a maximum-level deal but
even are willing to pursue two.
今年太陽在休賽期的行動相當和緩,試著保留薪資空間以追求自由球員
他們希望能以頂約簽下一名大牌球員,甚至是兩名
"We will be able to compete for the best players in the market," Suns
Managing Partner Robert Sarver said. "We will have the money to spend on them
and the flexibility to pursue those free agents."
"我們有本事競逐市場上最好的那些球員"太陽老闆殺佛如是說,
"我們有錢也有彈性去追求那些自由球員"
More space could be created by using the amnesty clause, which would allow
the Suns to waive a player like Josh Childress and have his contract not
count against their salary cap, even though they would still pay its
remainder.
如果太陽行使特赦條款裁掉一名球員,例如Josh Childress,將可以清出更多薪資空間
被特赦掉的球員薪資不會計入團隊薪資,但球團仍須支付該球員剩餘的薪水
The problem is that the Suns don't have control of the market, which already
has a dwindling top tier with Derrick Rose signing a contract extension,
Chris Paul being traded to the Los Angeles Clippers and committing to
exercising his 2012-13 player option and Dwight Howard holding leverage to be
traded to a desirous location -- which appears to be a large market despite
his public preference for Orlando.
現在的問題是,Derrick Rose已與公牛續約,Chris Paul傾向執行球員選項,
而Dwight Howard會想辦法讓自己被交易到想去的地方,一支大市場球隊
在這種情況下,太陽很難掌控球員市場
That leaves a group of restricted free agents who will be hard to pry away.
The top restricted free agents -- Deron Williams, Eric Gordon, Russell
Westbrook, Danilo Gallinari and Kevin Love -- all could sign extensions by
Jan. 25 to remain with their teams. Even if they don't, those teams would
have the right to match any offer the Suns make in July and keep their free
agents.
市場上剩下一些不好挖角的受限自由球員
明年頂級的受限自由球員有Deron Williams、Eric Gordon、Russell Westbrook、
Danilo Gallinari和Kevin Love,而他們都可以在一月二十五日之前與原隊續約
即使沒有續約,所屬球隊也有權力跟進其他球隊的報價
The Suns talk about having Nash close his career in Phoenix, but he will turn
38 this season and would have to be willing to take a pay cut for the Suns to
pursue more upgrades in talent. He would also have to be willing to return to
a team whose plan is unclear to him and perhaps accept a lesser role if they
pursued another point guard, like Williams or Westbrook.
太陽談到讓Nash在鳳凰城退役的事
本季他將邁入三十八歲,而他或許會自願降薪以強化球隊
或許他也願意回到一支對他定位不明的球隊,
甚至願意接受次要的角色,假如太陽得到了另一名控衛,像是Williams或Westbrook
This ownership and management team also will have to prove itself as
recruiters. They will need more than warm weather to sell top players on a
mid-market franchise that could be headed for its third non-playoff season in
four years.
They will need more than warm weather to sell top players這句不太會翻
→ jeromee :They will need more than warm weather to sell top 12/28 15:55
→ jeromee :意思是:太陽除了鳳凰城氣候溫暖的條件外,還必須拿 12/28 15:57
→ jeromee :出更多的爭冠條件以便向頂級球員推銷加盟。 12/28 15:58
這段意思大概是太陽制服組必須證明他們招攬球員的能力,吸引球員加入這支中等市場,
並可能面臨四年內第三度無緣季後賽的球隊
The Suns have not landed a major free agent since Nash in 2004. Nash came
largely because close friend Rex Chapman worked in the front office and
helped arrange the opportunity for Bryan and Jerry Colangelo to pull off a
full-court press on Nash. Sarver just had purchased the team that year and
joined the recruiting trip as an observer.
自從2004年的Nash後,太陽就沒有簽過大牌的自由球員了
當年Nash加入太陽主要是因為他的好友Chapman幫了Bryan和Colangelo不少
那年殺佛剛買下太陽並參與了簽下Nash的那次旅行
Many might call for the Suns to trade Nash, or free him, depending on the
perspective of whether people pull for the team or Nash to succeed. Nash
likely would have to seek a trade, something he has said he can't envision,
but another losing season could change that, with Mike D'Antoni pining to
bring him to New York. The Suns would not get fair value in a trade for Nash
due to his age but might be able to attract a first-round pick and/or young
player from a team needing a point guard for a title push.
許多專家認為太陽應該交易Nash或讓他自由
Nash可能必須尋求交易,一件他坦言無法設想的事
但另一個失敗的球季或許會改變他的心意
因為Nash的年紀,太陽可能無法在交易中獲得同等的籌碼
但或許可以從急需控衛以沖擊總冠軍的球隊得到首輪籤與年輕球員
One way or another, the Suns need to find their next young star. The coming
draft could have one in Connecticut's Andre Drummond and Jeremy Lamb,
Kentucky's Anthony Davis, Baylor's Perry Jones, North Carolina's Harrison
Barnes or Ohio State's Jared Sullinger, but that would require a
crash-and-burn Suns season.
無論如何,太陽必須找到下一位年輕的明星
今年的選秀有康乃狄克的Andre Drummond和Jeremy Lamb、肯塔基的Anthony Davis、
貝勒的Perry Jones、北卡的Harrison Barnes與俄州的Jared Sullinger
但想選到這些球員,太陽需要一個徹底毀滅的球季
Management is testing the fans' patience by asking them to tolerate a team
that appears to be a borderline playoff contender at best. If the 2012
free-agency market dries up, they might have to ask fans to wait for 2013
free agency unless they can execute a trade for a roster boost.
管理階層讓球迷必須忍受一支最多只能在季後賽邊緣浮沉的球隊,這正在考驗球迷的耐性
假如2012的自由球員市場枯竭,除非他們有辦法透過交易強化陣容,
否則就必須讓球迷們等到2013年
