完全无法“补充”D大的文章,只能说是一点想法。
各球队应该被 2016 自由球员市场吓到了,薪资规则虽然大致不变,顶薪
原则上仍是团队薪资空间的百分之25,但薪资空间在那年暴增以后,原本
的顶薪在第一张换约的18M左右,跳到25M左右,配合每年的涨幅,球员的
薪资完全M型化。
现行制度的顶薪(max contract)其实是一个剥削S级球员、肥死B~A级
球员、饿死角色球员的制度;把球员的薪资排行拉出来看:

以上大致都是顶薪或接近顶薪,除了暴龙双后卫有点尴尬以外,把黄色球员
归类为“不是S级”球员应该没有问题;另外,旧CBA时期签下的顶薪,就是
再贵现在看来都还好,所以列到表弟为止。其他值得点名的有:
Wesley Matthews
Luol Deng
Tristan Thompson (他跟嘴绿拿一模一样的钱)
Timofey Mozgov
JR Smith (难交易的理由是约太长)
这五十来位球员,除了内线本来就稀有财而贵以外,只要不是S级身手却拿
S级薪水的合约(标上黄色的),就是各队想出清也清不掉的对象了,烂约
是也;往后各队应该会以这些合约为借镜,不要一签就伤害自己球队的薪资
弹性四年。
回到原题,考量到 Julius Randle 打的位置,他进自由球员市场一定喊顶
薪(实际拿不拿得到是另一回事),但湖人愿意开顶薪给他吗?这个问题
换句话说就是:说“Julius Randle 不是S级球员”大概不会太过份,那他
想拿S级薪水就会是问题了。与其拖到今年季末伤脑筋“要不要围绕在Julius
Randle身上补强球队”,试着在交易期限结束前,换回等值而不需要立即
花大钱的资产、把这个困扰丢给下家,湖人有这个想法应该是很明确的。
打得好,却又没好到值得拿顶薪的球队,面临的问题都是一样的。有湖人、
灰熊当前例以后,各队应该都会尽量避免才是。
