In the modern NBA, you need a strong point guard to even have a chance to
compete. Without one, you’re lost.
One of the top options set to come available this offseason in free agency is
Utah Jazz floor general Ricky Rubio, who will receive a good amount of
interest from teams lacking an adequate lead ball-handler. Rubio is coming
off a season in which he averaged 12.7 points, 6.1 assists, 1.3 steals and
1.2 triples nightly on 40.4 percent shooting, and helped play an important
role on a very good Utah team.
在现代NBA中，你需要一个强大的控球后卫才有机会竞逐总冠军。没有这样的球员，你就
注定要输了。
这个休赛季期间在自由球员市场上所能得到的最佳选择之一就是 Jazz 队的地板指挥
官 Ricky Rubio，他将会吸引那些目前缺乏优秀控球员的球队很多的关注。Rubio在本赛
季平均每场可以得到12.7分，6.1次助攻，1.3次抄截与1.2次三分球，投篮命中率达到
40.4％，并且在一支非常出色的犹他州球队中发挥了重要作用。
More than just the statistics, though, Rubio is known around the league as a
great teammate who won’t complain about his role and will work hard on both
ends of the floor every minute he’s in the game – and those traits will
help greatly raise his stock as a free agent.
Below, we break down four potential free-agent landing spots for the Spanish
maestro.
除了统计数据之外，Rubio在联盟中也以一名伟大的队友而闻名，他从不抱怨自己的角色
，并且在比赛中每一分钟都会在球场上努力的工作 - 这些特质将都有助于大大提高他成
为自由球员后的筹码。
以下，我们为这位西班牙大师解析四个潜在的自由球员落脚处。
INDIANA PACERS 印第安纳溜马
The Indiana Pacers, a team built to be a playoff contender for at least the
foreseeable future, would make a lot of sense as a potential Rubio suitor for
a variety of reasons.
For starters, their starting point guard of the last two years, Darren
Collison, will be an unrestricted free agent this summer, meaning they could
have an opening at the lead-guard spot that will need filling. What’s more,
while Collison was productive and efficient over his last two seasons as a
Pacer, his most effective role on offense was that of a spot-up shooter.
Indiana could use a point guard who can take over a larger portion of the
offense, and allow Victor Oladipo to play off the ball more often than he has
since 2017-18.
印第安纳溜马，一支至少在可预见的未来将成为季后赛竞逐者的球队，基于各种原因，很
有可能成为Rubio的潜在下家。
在先发阵容中，他们过去两年的先发控卫Darren Collison在今年夏天将成为一名非受限
自由球员，这意味着他们将在先发后卫的位置上开出一个空缺。更重要的是，虽然
Darren Collison 在溜马过去两个赛季中的积效与效率都很高，但他在进攻端最有效的角
色却是个定点射手。溜马队可以采用一名控球后卫来接手更多的进攻组织，并允许
Victor Oladipo 能比 2017-18 赛季打更多的无球打法。
Rubio could be just that guy.
Additionally, with the rock in his hands more often, Rubio may be able to
regain the form he had back in his Minnesota Timberwolves days, when he was
one of the best playmakers in the league and a 9.0-plus-assist-per-game
player.
Rubio可能就是辣个人。
此外，随着一球在手的时间更频繁，Rubio 可能就可以恢复他在明尼苏达灰狼时期的状态
，当时他是联盟中最好的组织者之一，并且每场比赛有9.0次以上的助攻。
The most enticing thing about Rubio for the Pacers is, though, the fact that
he would come far cheaper than a lot of the other options they’ll find on
the open market this summer. Indiana is projected to have over $40 million in
cap space, and if they’re able to land a starter-level point guard, like
Rubio, for around $10 million to $12 million annually, that’ll leave them
with plenty of room to re-sign impending free agent wing Bojan Bogdanovic and
big man Thaddeus Young, or use the leftover money to chase a big-name free
agent.
Not only would Indiana be getting an upgrade at the lead-guard spot in Rubio,
they’d be doing so at a very team-friendly price.
然而，对于溜马来说，Rubio 最吸引人的事情是他将比今年夏天自由球员市场上所能找到
的很多其他选项要便宜得多。溜马预计将有超过4000万美元的薪资空间，如果他们能够以
每年1000万美元到1200万美元的价格得到像Rubio 这样的先发级控球后卫，这将使他们有
足够的空间重新签下即将离队的自由球员 Bojan Bogdanovic 和大个子 Thaddeus
Young ，或者用剩下的钱来追逐一个大牌自由球员。
溜马不仅可以在Rubio 的先发控卫位置得到提升，他们也将会以非常实惠的价格进行升级
。
