心得：既然CD犯了大錯誤現在很多球迷都呼喊著退票那現在就做件好事吧不過老板可能要付豪華稅也就不要吝嗇了 http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl...kn/4018698.html July 2, 2006, 12:18AM James game no slam dunk Rockets' cap issues make sign-and-trade deal a possibility By JONATHAN FEIGEN Copyright 2006 Houston Chronicle The Rockets moved a few steps closer to bringing Mike James back to Houston , but they also got a pretty good idea of how far they need to go. The Rockets began the free-agency period at 11:01 p.m. Friday with coach Jeff Van Gundy ringing the bell at James' house in Houston while general manager Carroll Dawson called James' agent, Bill Duffy. The only hitch was that James, whose workout ran late, was not there when Van Gundy reached James' door. But the two did visit a short time later. "Everybody has an open mind," Duffy said. "From what I was told, they had a very good talk." The Rockets have made their preference for the 31-year-old James clear, and James has been unusually outspoken about his interest in playing for the Rockets again. But putting them together won't be that simple. Duffy said the Rockets are one of "numerous teams" that have already reached out to James. Duffy would not specify who else is interested. Atlanta, one of just five teams with cap space, is believed to be pursuing the 6-2 guard . The Rockets are over the cap. Barring a sign-and-trade deal with James' current team (the Raptors), the Rockets can offer only their mid-level exception , expected to begin at roughly $5 million. The Hawks are targeting several point guards and are especially interested in veterans such as James, Speedy Claxton or Sam Cassell as opposed to younger prospects such as Marcus Banks. Especially in a short-term contract, they have the spending room to offer more than the Rockets. Asked if James was open to the mid-level exception, Duffy said, "That's going to be up to Mike James. Right now, he's just keeping an open mind." But the Rockets can try to work a sign-and-trade with the Raptors using their $4.2 million trade exception. The Raptors are unlikely to want contracts back, making the Rockets' trade exception a potential advantage because in a sign-and-trade deal, the Rockets can offer 12.5 percent annual raises, as opposed to the 8 percent raises permitted in free-agent deals. "It's a concept to consider," Duffy said. "We haven't gotten there yet. A sign-and-trade is something we could pursue." Duffy said that as much as James would like to play in Houston, he also wants to consider his options before making a decision in about two weeks. Players cannot sign free-agent contracts until July 12. 其他的就不翻譯了，都不重要，其實就是在強調Mike James現在有很多球隊在追逐，離作出決定還早的隉A他不一定會選擇提供薪水最高的那個球隊（比如老鷹隊）。他很喜歡休斯頓，但也要聽聽別的報價。7月12日前一切都有可能。關鍵的是個信息：火箭有望通過4.2M的那個TE先簽後換得到MJ 原因是： A 暴龍隊不希望在先簽後換的情況下吃進新的合同，這使得火箭的TE變得有交易價值起來 B 通過先簽後換方式簽約，MJ的年薪漲幅可以達到12.5％/每年，而不是自由人方式簽約的8％。因此先簽後換對于MJ本人來說相當有吸引力。假如這個計劃成功，那麼火箭就可以省下他們的中產，蚔在別的地方，比如去追逐黃蜂的克拉克斯頓，步行者的Fred Jones，簽約希臘的SG新秀，以及內線替補人選等。 ꐊ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 218.75.43.254
