湖人”认真考虑”以现有阵容打完本赛季
Despite the apparent need to improve their overall roster, the Los Angeles Laker
s are reportedly considering the idea of staying with the players currently on t
he team.
显然，湖人需要改善他们的整体阵容，但根据报导，湖人正在考虑保持现有阵容。
Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times indicated that unless there’s a deal that ma
kes the Lakers serious postseason contenders, the team will likely stand pat.
洛杉矶时报的记者Dan Woike表示，除非有一笔交易能让湖人成为季后赛中的有力竞争者，
否则球队很可能会按兵不动。
“Internally, sources said, there’s been serious consideration given to riding
out the season without making a major deal if they can’t find one that would ma
ke the team a realistic contender,” Woike wrote.
记者Dan Woike：消息人士透露，湖人内部认为，如果他们找不到可以让球队成为有力竞争
者的球员，他们就会认真考虑在不做重大交易的情况下度过这个赛季。
One of the chief reasons why making a deal has been so difficult is because of t
he lack of future draft capital. A good portion of that went into the 2019 deal
to acquire Anthony Davis.
湖人做交易如此困难的主要原因之一是缺乏未来选秀资产。他们很大一部分的选秀权在2019
年交易AD时送出去了。
That blockbuster trade paid immediate dividends when Davis played a key role in
helping the Lakers win the 2020 NBA title. However, continuing injuries to Davis
have meant struggles for the Lakers
当然，湖人立即从那笔交易中得到了回报，AD在帮助湖人赢得2020年NBA冠军中发挥了关键
作用。然而，AD持续受伤也让湖人打得挣扎。
The Lakers do have a pair of future first-round picks that they could deal if th
ey were so inclined. However, efforts by potential trade partners to acquire tho
se picks have been stymied by the Lakers’ apparent reluctance to give them up.
湖人确实有两个未来的首轮选秀权，如果他们愿意的话，他们可以交易。然而，显然湖人不
愿意放弃这些选秀权，潜在的交易对象为获得这两个选秀权所做的努力受到了阻碍。
After Wednesday night’s loss to the Miami Heat, the Lakers have a 14-21 record
for the season. In the highly competitive Western Conference, that means they ha
ve the third-worst record among conference teams.
在输给迈阿密热火队之后，湖人队本赛季的战绩为14-21。在竞争如此激烈的西区，湖人目
前的战绩是倒数第三。
Even to reach the team that currently sits at the No. 10 seed in the West, the G
olden State Warriors, the Lakers would have to pick up 3.5 games. However, that
would only put them in a position to compete in the play-in portion and wouldn’
t even guarantee a playoff berth.
即使想要追上目前位于西区第10的勇士，湖人也必须再追上3.5场胜差。然而，这只能让他
们取得附加赛席次，甚至不能保证获得季后赛的资格。
Then, even if the Lakers do manage to reach the postseason, the team would still
face an arduous climb through four rounds of playoffs.
然后，即便湖人真的进入了季后赛，球队仍将面临艰难的四轮季后赛。
That effort isn’t likely to happen, even if they do make a major deal. That’s
because Davis is again sidelined by injury and won’t return to the Lakers’ lin
eup until the middle of next month at the earliest.
这是不可能发生的，即使他们真的做了一笔大交易。因为AD再次因伤休战，最早也要到下个
月中旬才能回到球队阵容中。
The apparent strategy of the Lakers to simply forge ahead and hope for the best
over the rest of the season likely won’t please the team’s fan base. Yet, at t
his point, their options appear to be severely limited.
湖人的明显策略是保持现状，并希望在本赛季剩下的时间里尽可能地取得好战绩，这或许不
会让球队的球迷满意。但在这个时点上，他们的选择严重受限。

湖人不交易最高兴的应该是鹈鹕？
