This is a placeholder contract in many ways. It ensures the Spurs, one win from a title, won’t strike out totally in the market for quality bigs. San Antonio could have hoarded max-level cap room had they renounced both Splitter and Manu Ginobili, and you have to wipe the drool off your face when you think of the Spurs using that cap room to chase a more impactful big such as Josh Smith, Paul Millsap, or Nikola Pekovic — and then re-signing Ginobili on the cheap. But going that route would have risked losing Splitter, whiffing on all those guys (Pekovic is a restricted free agent, remember), and coming away with a lesser second big to slot alongside the aging (and ageless) Tim Duncan. 每個我問過的制服組都跟我說Splitter大概值 8-10M，而馬刺取了平均值9M。從很多方面來看，這都是個保險的選擇。這份合約讓馬刺還有辦法在優質常長人市場上一搏 ...以下省略，因為討論到Manu當時還沒簽的合約，現在已經不適用 As things stand now, the Spurs could still work their way to about $7.75 million in space by renouncing Ginobili, and about $11.5 million by using the amnesty provision on Matt Bonner. (Going that route with Bonner, rather than simply waiving him for $1 million, would be a nice gesture of kindness.) The Spurs, in other words, could still be pretty frisky, depending on Ginobili’s intentions; they could land a quality third big (Carl Landry, or even Millsap) with that cap room, or another wing with some ballhandling juice (O.J. Mayo, Gerald Henderson). Splitter is also a legit center who could stand in as a capable starter in San Antonio’s system should Duncan suffer a sudden age-related decline or retire at some sooner-than-expected moment. He’s a fail-safe in that sense as well, and it wouldn’t surprise me if the Spurs viewed this deal much like the Nuggets viewed Nene’s big contract — as a slightly unpleasant temporary measure they can undo at any moment if something better comes along. Splitter也是個合格的中鋒，而且很適合馬刺系統，就算Duncan突然退化或是退休，他依然可以勝任馬刺先發中鋒的位置。從這方面來看，這份約對馬刺也是個保險，大概和當初金塊和Nene續約差不多意思—當下或許有點讓人覺得貴，但如果有任何更好的機會，這份合約也可以隨時處理掉。(很好賣的意思) Splitter is a solid two-way big man, and this is what solid two-way big men get paid. He made major strides as a defender last season, both against pick-and-rolls and near the basket; the Spurs, for the first time in Splitter ’s brief NBA career, didn’t fall off a cliff defensively when Duncan hit the bench. Splitter’s a heady screener and cutter — a must in San Antonio’ s pick-and-roll-heavy system. Splitter是個有攻有守的穩定長人，他拿到的合約也是這種長人的價碼，上一球季他在防守端大大提升，不論是守擋拆或是保護籃框都有進步。這也是他加入馬刺這幾年來，第一次當Duncan不在場時，場上的防守不會一瀉千里。他也是個很好的screener 和cutter，對馬刺這種擋拆為主的系統來說是必備的能力。 Think of Omer Asik as a comparable, since Asik’s contract carries just about the same per-year value. Splitter isn’t the rim protector or rebounder Asik is, but he’s a bit more mobile on defense, and does just about everything better offensively — finishing at the rim, passing, turnover avoidance, free throw shooting, etc. This is a fair deal, and perhaps a necessary one for the Spurs. If you’re judging Splitter by his Finals performance against a unique small-ball animal (the Heat), you’re selecting your evidence in a very bad way. 拿平均一年8M的Asik來比一比。Splitter保護籃框和抓籃板的能力沒Asik好，但他防守的機動性更好，而且在進攻上的每件事都比Asik好—把球搞進去的能力、傳球、避免失誤、罰球等等。This is a fair deal，對馬刺來說也是必須的。如果你用Splitter 在冠軍賽的表現、用面對極端的小球球隊的表現來衡量他，you're selecting your evidence in a very bad way. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 67.187.92.197
