Jeremy Lin Free-Agency Update: J-Lin Would Still Demand $8MM to $10MM Per
Year Contract http://tinyurl.com/kun8bqo
林书豪自由市场追踪报导: 林书豪将仍会要求US$8MM~10MM的年薪合约
After collecting a career-high $15 million last season, Jeremy Lin won't be
expected to lower down his price tag even after an up-and-down season with
the Los Angeles Lakers. In fact, Mychal Thompson of ESPN Radio Los Angeles
even believed the former Harvard standout might still be targeting a contract
that would pay him around $8 million to $10 million per season.
上季年薪领了生涯新高的US$1500万后, 尽管在湖人度过了起起落落的一季, 可以预期林
书豪将不会降薪求约, 事实上ESPN湖人台的Mychal Thompson相信, 哈佛小子将仍会去寻
求年薪US$800万~US$1000万之间的合约
Coming off the worst statistical year since the post-Linsanity era (11.2
points on 42% FG/ 36% 3pts and 4.6 assists in 27 minutes per game), the
26-year old Lin will enter the free-agency season sans the enormous media
coverage and hype that bestowed upon him three years ago. Still, he remains
one of the most intriguing free-agents to hit the market this summer largely
because of his strong output in the second half of the season and the fact
that he's still 26-year old.
上季在湖人是林来疯后最低迷的个人数据, 26岁的林书豪将会在较以往少的媒体宣传上
投入自由球员市场, 但因为他这下半季的出色表现以及仅仅26岁, 林书豪将仍然会是自
由球员市场中最引人注目的一名球员
In his appearance on ESPN Los Angeles Radio show Mason and Ireland, former
Lakers All-Star Mychal Thompson talked about the potential offseason
transactions the Lakers would make this summer as they attempt to bounce back
from two consecutive nightmarish seasons.
林书豪前阵子有上ESPN湖人广播台, 前湖人all star的Mychal Thompson提及了这个休赛
季湖人可能的交易, 因为湖人亟想摆脱连两季的恶梦
Thompson believed the Lakers are going to make a run at a high-profile
free-agent this season and use their top-5 pick to select one of the studs
coming out of the collegiate ranks. The rest will likely be holdovers from
last season, with only Nick Young and Jordan Hill possibly not coming back
with the purple-and-gold next season.
这段只有湖人就不翻译了
As to Jeremy Lin, Thompson thinks it would depend on the Lakers' free-agency
plan and the player's asking price. Lin stressed at the end of the
regular-season that his main priority will be to pick a team where he fits in
well. Although he's not ruling out a return to the Lakers, Lin is also
drawing interest from the Houston Rockets, Philadelphia 76ers and Denver
Nuggets.
至于林书豪, Thompson认为取决于湖人夏天的自由球员计划跟球员们要求的价格, 林本身
因为下半季打出更好的表现, 所以他会把更适合他发挥的球队摆在最优先的挑选顺位. 虽
然口头上林书豪并未排除回到湖人, 但其他球队如火箭/七六人/金块都对林书豪很有兴趣
According to Thompson, aside from having the opportunity again to have a
bigger role, Lin would also seek a significant paycheck worth $8 million to
$10 million per year, a price tag that would instantly kill the prospect of
playing again with the Lakers.
Thompson表示, 他认为林书豪除了想找一支能给他更重要角色的球队之外, 同时林也会去
寻求一张平均年薪约US$800万~US$1000万的合约, 而这价码就跟湖人无缘了
