2022-04-20 19:14:18记者Eric Pincus撰文分析LBJ续约与否的湖人未来
"Based on my conversations with people who have a strong sense of such things, i
t's clear James is considering playing out this contract rather than signing a t
wo-year extension this summer," Sam Amick of The Athletic recently wrote. "... [
James] could go back to the year-by-year approach he perfected in his second Cle
veland stop."
The Athletic记者的Sam Amick近日报导:根据我与那些对此有强烈感觉的消息人士的交谈
,很明显LBJ正在考虑走完现在这份合约,而不是在今年夏天签下两年延长合约 。LBJ可以
回归他第二次的骑士生涯中一年一签的方式。
Sources at Klutch Sports insist those internal discussions on James' future have
n't taken place yet. However, James was non-committal after his exit meeting wit
h the team last week.
来自Klutch Sports的消息人士坚称,关于LBJ未来的内部讨论还没有进行。然而,LBJ在上
周的赛季总结采访中并没有做出续约承诺。
James' decision may determine the direction of the Lakers' offseason. If he refu
ses to commit to them beyond next season, that could impact how they rectify the
Russell Westbrook situation.
LBJ的决定可能会决定湖人休赛期的方向。如果他拒绝和湖人续约,这将影响湖人如何处理
龟龟的情况。
The Lakers will likely have to ship out their 2027 and/or 2029 first-round picks
to offload Westbrook's $47.1 million expiring contract this summer. If they als
o have to take back unwieldy contracts, they might balk at oft-injured players o
n long-term deals like Gordon Hayward or Malcolm Brogdon if James isn't committe
d beyond next season.
要在今年夏天处理龟龟4710万美元的到期合约,湖人很可能就必须送出他们的2027及/或202
9年首轮签。如果他们必须要接收难以处理的合约且LBJ下赛季没有续约,他们可能会拒绝那
些经常受伤、身上有长期合约的球员,比如Hayward或Brogdon。
If James refuses to sign an extension this summer, the Lakers will need to eithe
r move on or capitulate. While James doesn't have a no-trade clause, superstars
have a certain modicum of control over where they go, especially near the end of
their contracts.
如果LBJ今年夏天拒绝续约,湖人要么继续打完赛季要么主动交易。虽然LBJ没有交易否决权
,但超级巨星对自己的去向有一定的控制权,尤其是在合约即将结束的时候。
Westbrook is one of many dominoes who could be impacted by James' decision eithe
r way.
龟龟是众多可能受到LBJ决定影响的多米诺骨牌之一。
With his family well situated in Los Angeles, James has given no indication that
he wants to leave the Lakers. However, the threat of his potential departure ne
xt offseason may help him gain more influence over the rest of the roster and th
e coaching hire.
由于他的家人都居住在洛杉矶,LBJ还没有给出任何表明他想离开湖人的迹象。然而,他可
能在下个休赛期离队的威胁也许会帮助他在剩余球员名单和教练聘用上获得更大的影响力。
If James doesn't extend his contract and leaves next summer, the Lakers would ga
in significant financial flexibility. However, they would lack a headliner.
如果LBJ不延长合约并在明年夏天离开,湖人将获得巨大的财务灵活性,但是他们将缺少头
牌。
Based on current commitments, the Lakers could have $57-75 million in spending p
ower next offseason (using a cap projection of $128.1 million for 2023-24) if Ja
mes leaves and they renounce the rights to the rest of their roster. They would
still have Davis on the books for at least one more year, and they could look to
land another star or two in free agency.
根据目前的情况,如果LBJ明年夏天离开,并且他们放弃对其他球员的续约,湖人在下个休
赛期可能拥有5700万-7500万美元的薪资空间(2023-24赛季预计薪资上限为1.281亿美元)。
湖人仍然会让AD至少再待一年,他们可能会考虑在自由球员市场上,再签一两个球星。
But cap room only goes so far. The Lakers aren't guaranteed to lure another set
of marquee players. Instead, they might look to get out of Davis' contract and s
tart over entirely if James leaves.
湖人不能保证吸引另一批大牌球员,相反的,如果LBJ离开他们可能会寻求摆脱AD的合约,
并重新开始。
That wouldn't necessarily be a terrible plan. The Lakers don't have any ugly, lo
ng-term contractual commitments. They might be able to rebuild quickly with a mo
untain of cap space and whatever they got in return for Davis.
这不一定是一个糟糕的计划。湖人不必背负未来任何的长期合约,他们可能能以大量的薪资
空间以及他们从交易AD那里得到的任何回报来快速进行重建。
Even if James agrees to extend his contract this summer, he may want a player op
tion on the final season, which would match Davis' early termination option befo
re 2024-25. That would give the Lakers two full years before potentially losing
both of their stars.
即使LBJ同意在今年夏天延长合约,他也可能希望在合约的最后一个赛季获得球员选项,这
将与AD在2024-25赛季之前提前终止合约的球员选项相匹配。这样湖人可能在两年后同时失
去两位球星。
In the best-case scenario, both of them will stay healthy, contend for titles an
d have no desire to eventually depart. This past year may just go down as a mome
ntary rough patch.
在最好的情况下,他们两人将保持健康,争夺冠军,最终并没有离开的意愿。过去的一季可
能只是短暂的艰困期。
