While trade rumors continue to swirl around Oklahoma City Thunder star point
guard Russell Westbrook, the Thunder's "primary offseason objective" is still
to try and get Westbrook to renegotiate and extend his contract so he doesn't
hit free agency next summer, according to The Vertical's Adrian Wojnarowski.
If successful, Woj reports the Thunder would swing for the fences by trying
to sign Oklahoma native Blake Griffin to pair with Westbrook.
虽然目前为止有许多流言说雷霆队有可能把Westbrook交易掉
但是依照Woj的消息指出, 雷霆队的主要目标还是要留下Westbrook当基石
然后试着围绕着他来打造一支可以争冠的球队
首先, 雷霆队会试着先去把OKC出生的Blake Griffin当首要目标来跟Westbrook搭配
The question of Westbrook's future with the Thunder became a hot topic in the
immediate aftermath of Kevin Durant's decision to join the Golden State
Warriors. Initial reports stated Westbrook has little intention of extending
his contract in Oklahoma City this summer, but the Thunder have reportedly
been in regular contact with him and his agent since Durant's July 4
decision. They're hoping to change Westbrook's mind on the matter.
从KD选择了勇士以来
Westbrook的未来走向一直是一个很热门的话题
一开始有消息指出, Westbrook对于明年跟雷霆的续约不是那么有兴趣
但是雷霆队一直很主动频繁的跟Westbrook接触
希望可以改变Westbrook的心意
While Westbrook has yet to make any type of commitment to Oklahoma City, Woj
reports the Thunder have been rebuffing teams that have reached out about a
possible trade for the star guard. Oklahoma City also just rescinded the
qualifying offer for guard Dion Waiters, a move that was done in order to
save cap space for a potential Westbrook renegotiation.
虽然说Westbrook目前为止没有答应OKC任何事情
但是OKC是回绝了所有来找他们交易Westbrook的提案
另外OKC也撤销了对于Dion Waiters的报价
来保持足够的薪资空间可以跟Westbrook重新谈合约
Though it is usually more lucrative financially for players to wait until
free agency, the Vertical's Bobby Marks recently explained that a short-term
commitment to the Thunder through 2017-18 would make some sense for
Westbrook. Waiting until 2018 to hit free agency would bump the guard up to a
"Tier 3 max player" because he would have 10 years of service, making him
eligible for a maximum contract worth roughly 35 percent of the cap.
通常一般来说成为自由球员再去谈新的合约是可以签到比较大的合约
不过以Westbrook的现状来讲, 如果先签一个短约, 到了2018年的时候
Westbrook就可以签一个联盟上限的最大约
所以如果现在Westbrook同意续约一个短约,
未来是可以拿到比较多钱的
This would also give the Thunder more time to attempt to build a title
contender around Westbrook, so he'd then feel compelled to make a long-term
commitment. Westbrook is reportedly a fan of the young talent already on the
roster, but more is needed to get back to title contention level. That is
where the chase for Griffin comes in. Griffin isn't on the same level as
Durant, but a Westbrook-Griffin duo would be devastating in its own right and
would vault Oklahoma City back up near the top of the Western Conference.
Of course, actually signing Griffin is much easier said than done:
这个举动也可以让OKC有更足够的时间跟空间去打造一个更有竞争力的球队
这样对Westbrook来说, 也比较有签长约的吸引力
Westbrook对于目前队中的年轻战力非常满意
但是也希望可以回到有竞争力的层级中
这也让争取Blake Griffin 变的合理
虽然说 BG跟KD不是同一个档次
但是至少身手也是很不错
但当然啦 要签下BG说的比做的简单
