Sources close to the situation told ESPN.com on Tuesday that the Pistons have
engaged the Sacramento Kings in trade discussions this week that would
potentially land Josh Smith in the same Sacramento frontcourt as DeMarcus
Cousins and Rudy Gay.
本周二据熟悉情况的消息人士透露，活塞队本周已经展开与国王队讨论交易Josh Smith的
事宜了，国王会想把Smith拿去搭前场的DeMarcus Cousins和Rudy Gay。
Sources say that Smith being swapped in exchange for the combination of
Sacramento's Jason Thompson and Derrick Williams is one trade construction
that the teams have discussed. Although one source insisted Tuesday that no
deal is imminent, another source told ESPN.com that the teams have continued
to exchange proposals, with Williams potentially being replaced by another
Kings player such as Jason Terry or Carl Landry.
消息人士说，用Smith交换国王的Jason Thompson和Derrick Williams包裹是其中一个
被讨论的交易方案。虽然一位消息人士透露这桩交易并没有迫在眉睫，而另一位消息人士
则告诉ESPN，国王与活塞仍持续在讨论交易提案，Derrick Williams可能会被替换成Jason
Terry或Carl Landry其他筹码。
Skeptics will inevitably question whether the Kings should indeed take the
gamble of trying to fit Smith in alongside Cousins and Gay, especially with
three years and $40.5 million remaining on Smith's contract from the Pistons
last summer and in the wake of his struggles playing alongside Detroit big
men Andre Drummond and Greg Monroe.
有论者会质疑国王不应该赌在Smith身上，特别是Smith还有三年4050万的合约，加上他
曾和Andre Drummond和Greg Monroe搭档时打得很挣扎.
Sources say that the Kings, though, have been giving the swap serious
consideration, largely because the deal would not cost them any players in
their long-term plans and would also add a versatile and athletic defender to
a roster that badly needs one, answering coach Mike Malone's call for more
help on that end.
消息人士说，国王一直认真考虑这桩交易成行的可能性，主要是因为这桩交易不会损失
他们阵中那些在长期计划里的球员，而且还会补强阵容非常需要的一位多功能和机动型的
防守者，此正好回应总教练Mike Malone的需求。
Another potential bonus is Smith's close relationship with Boston Celtics
point guard Rajon Rondo, whom Sacramento has reportedly been targeting in
trade talks for some time.
这桩交易另一个潜在原因是Smith和塞尔提克队的Rajon Rondo麻吉的关系，Rondo据称一直
是国王锁定的目标。
One source said that the Kings' focus, for the moment, is Thursday's draft
and perhaps swinging a trade involving the No. 8 overall pick. As ESPN.com's
Andy Katz reported Monday, Sacramento is in negotiations with multiple teams
when it comes to moving that pick.
一位消息人士说国王目前的焦点是本周四的选秀会，也许会把#8选秀签会放入之后的交易
包裹里，据ESPN的记者Andy Katz周一表示，国王已经和很多支球队讨论过交易#8选秀签的
事宜。
