Stein：如果湖人能将West踢开，那也能对LBJ做同样的事
Well, according to the latest report from veteran NBA insider and Hall of Famer
Marc Stein, at least as of right now, Pelinka — and his fellow decision-makers,
Kurt and Linda Rambis — appear to be pretty safe (emphasis mine, via Marc’s e
xcellent Substack):
根据NBA资深记者Marc Stein的最新报导，至少到目前为止，Pelinka——以及他的决策伙伴
Kurt和Linda Rambis——似乎相当安全。
The Lakers will be able to trade multiple future first-round picks in the summer
, after they were limited to featuring a 2027 first-rounder in their recent trad
e offers. The problem: They still lack players other teams covet to package with
those picks. James can seethe about the Lakers’ fruitless deadline all he want
s, but it doesn’t make Pelinka’s hand any stronger.
湖人队将能够在夏天交易多个未来的首轮选秀权，先前他们的交易报价仅限于2027年的首轮
选秀权。 问题是：他们仍然缺少其他球队渴望得到的球员。 LBJ可以对湖人在交易截止日
毫无成果感到生气，但这并不会对Pelinka有任何作用。
It’s equally fair to wonder how much he’s alienating the Lakers in the process
. Pelinka has the unwavering support of Lakers owner Jeanie Buss and is firmly e
ntrenched as a pillar of the club’s four-pronged brain trust alongside Buss and
the power couple of Kurt and Linda Rambis.
同样公平的是，LBJ在这个过程中疏远了湖人队。 Pelinka得到了湖人队老板Jeanie Buss的
坚定支持，并与Buss以及Kurt及Linda Rambis这对夫妇一起，成为了湖人目前智囊团的支柱
。
For all of the justified credit James deserves for hauling the Lakers out of the
worst period in franchise history, steeling them through the tragedy of Kobe Br
yant’s death and delivering a championship after a hard-to-believe six straight
seasons out of the playoffs, continued shots at Pelinka might not be so swiftly
forgotten.
对于LBJ应得的所有正面荣誉，他将湖人队从球队历史上最糟糕的时期拖了出来，让他们度
过了Kobe去世的悲剧，并在令人难以置信的连续六个赛季打不进季后赛后获得了总冠军，但
LBJ对Pelinka持续的砲轰可能不会很快被遗忘。
Remember: This is an organization that has cut ties completely with Lakers icon
Jerry West, who has a legit claim to Greatest Laker Ever status when you combine
his playing achievements with his front-office work. James and agent Rich Paul,
for all the perceived control they wield, are still outsiders when it comes to
the Lakers’ power dynamics. If West can be cut off, rest assured LeBron can, to
o, if he can no longer lift the Lakers out of mediocrity.
请记住，湖人是一支能与球队传奇West完全断绝关系的球队。West在球场与管理上的成就足
以让他成为湖人队史最伟大球员。LBJ与富保罗确实有很强的控制力，但在湖人队内，他们
还是局外人。如果湖人能将West踢开，那么也能对LBJ做同样的事，前提是如果他不能带领
湖人走出困境。
