Report: Rockets, Cavs competing to sign Andrew Bogut
火箭和骑士正在追逐Andrew Bogut
Soon-to-be free agent center Andrew Bogut will have his choice of championship
contenders , and the Akron Beacon Journal’s Jason Lloyd reported that the two
main teams to watch are the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Houston Rockets.
根据Jason Lloyd的报导，自由市场上的中锋Andrew Bogut将很快地做出决定加入哪只冠军
级别的队伍，目前传闻是骑士和火箭。
There will be a number of suitors in pursuit of Bogut, who is also eligible to
return to the Warriors because he was traded from Dallas to Philadelphia. He is
ineligible to return only to the team that most recently traded him, which in
this case is the Mavericks. So if the Warriors want him back, they may pursue
him. The Cavs have long had their eye on Bogut, but they’ll have competition
for him – primarily from the Houston Rockets.
肯定会有一些球队对 Bogut有兴趣；假设勇士希望Bogut重新回到勇士的阵容，是可以的，
因为在交易大限前，他被小牛交易到七六人，所以除了小牛外的队伍都能追求他。骑士关
注Bogut已经一段时间了，但他们现在的主要竞争者，大概就是火箭。
For the record, Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr said Friday that he
didn’t anticipate the team would add another big man, per the San Francisco
Chronicle’s Connor Letourneau. Also, ESPN’s Marc Stein reported Thursday that
the San Antonio Spurs will try to sign Bogut. If this indeed comes down to Cavs
vs. Rockets, though, then he has an interesting decision to make. Both teams
want him to boost their defense and help them make a run at the Warriors.
周五时，Steve Kerr说他不预期勇士会有其他大个子加入。另外，ESPN周四报导马刺将会
试着签下Bogut。如果最后演变成骑士和火箭的抢人大战，Bogut的决定将会很有趣。这两
只队伍都希望借由他能强化防守，同时击败勇士。
Bogut, who was traded from the Dallas Mavericks to the Philadelphia 76ers before
Thursday’s deadline and is expected to be released, might not be offered a
starting spot on either team. If he signs with the Rockets, though, he will
probably be promised a larger role as Clint Capela’s backup. On offense,
Houston primarily needs its big men to set on-ball screens and roll hard to the
rim, and he’s certainly capable of doing that. He’d also be excellent at
helping the Rockets’ shooters get open.
Bogut在周四交易大限前被小牛交易到七六人，被释出是可预期的。在这两队，他或许都不
能先发。但加入火箭，他将成为Capela下场后的重要角色；在进攻端，他可为持球队友们
的进行掩护或创造投射空档，而这也是他最拿手的。
If he signs with the Cavaliers, I’d be curious about his role. It makes sense
that he’d get plenty of minutes now with Kevin Love out of the lineup, but
Cleveland typically likes to space the floor with shooters when it goes to the
second unit. Last season, big man Timofey Mozgov never really got a chance to
work his way back into the rotation after an injury because the Cavs were
playing so well with a frontcourt rotation of Love, Tristan Thompson, Channing
Frye and an occasional dose of LeBron James at the four spot. If Bogut is
simply an emergency option when the team needs rim protection,then he’s
overqualified for the role.
假如成为骑士的一员，我对他的定位就很好奇。当然，在Kevin Love下场后，他肯定会有
不少时间，但骑士的板凳球员，长期倚靠的是拉开空间进行投射。上赛季，俄罗斯大个子
Timofey Mozgov在受伤后，就很难以他擅长的打球方式回到轮换阵容中，因为他们前场表
现良好，在 Love、Thompson、Frye的轮换下，偶而LeBron也会轮替。如果骑士仅需要他护
框防守，可能又太大材小用了些。
Free agents generally pick their teams based on a combination of factors, from role to money to the quality of the
team and how they feel about the city. While Cleveland obviously gives Bogut
the best chance of returning to the NBA Finals, no contender has as much money
to offer him as Houston does. There’s a lot of talk about the Cavs potentially
adding Bogut and Deron Williams, but it would be unwise to dismiss the Rockets.
自由球员选择球队不外乎:球队本身和当地城市的吸引力。骑士当然能提供 Bogut最佳的机
会重回总冠军赛，但火箭有最大的薪资空间。有很多传闻骑士会同时成为 Bogut和 Deron
Williams的新东家，但绝不能忽略火箭。
