[外絮] Shams:交易截止日聽到的消息

https://tinyurl.com/3435zeak (The Athletic 要$$) The NBA trade market has officially heated up with next week’s Feb. 9 deadline upon the league, and conversations among team executives are expected to become more serious as the next few days unfold. Across the NBA, it’s no secret the Toronto Raptors are viewed as a swing team in this year’s trade market. Raptors vice chairman and president of basketball operations Masai Ujiri and general manager Bobby Webster have what ’s seen as a talented core of attractive pieces in Pascal Siakam, Fred VanVleet, O.G. Anunoby and Gary Trent Jr. 隨著 2 月 9 日交易截止日期到來，NBA交易市場正式升溫，接下來幾天球隊高層間的對 話預計將變得更加嚴肅。 在今年的交易市場上，多倫多暴龍隊被視為搖擺不定的球隊，而這已經不是什麼秘密了。 在暴龍隊副主席兼籃球總管 Masai Ujiri 和總經理 Bobby Webster眼裡，Pascal Siakam 、Fred VanVleet、OG Anunoby 和Gary Trent Jr被視為極具吸引力的核心。 Because of the Raptors’ disappointing season thus far (they are currently 23-28 and in 12th place in the East), rival teams have been informed that the franchise will make a decision about being a buyer or seller – or standing pat – near deadline day, according to league sources who, like all the other sources in this story, were granted anonymity so that they would be able to speak freely. The Raptors are currently 2-1 on their six-game road trip that concludes on Feb. 5. The Raptors surely have high price tags on their core pieces, such as VanVleet and Anunoby. Will Toronto hold firm with the talent it’s amassed – or enter the lottery sweepstakes and build increasingly around Scottie Barnes? 由於暴龍隊本季打出令人失望的賽季（目前戰績為 23 勝 28 負，在東區排第 12 名）， 暴龍已告知其他球隊，將在截止日期前決定成為買方、賣方，還是按兵不動。和其他消息 來源一樣，這則情報被要求匿名。而暴龍隊目前在六場客場之旅中取得戰績 2-1。 暴龍隊的核心球員肯定要價不斐，比如 VanVleet 和 Anunoby。但多倫多會是會留著的他 們的天賦——還是進入樂透抽獎並以Scottie Barnes為核心重建? What’s more, Nick Nurse’s future as Raptors head coach is expected to come into focus this summer, when sources say he will be entering the final year of his contract going into next season. After the 2019-20 season, Nurse – who guided the Raptors to the 2019 NBA championship, won Coach of the Year in 2020, and is regarded among the league’s best coaches – signed a contract extension through 2023-24 worth $8 million per year. The length of the deal has not been previously disclosed by the team. There’s been frustration throughout the roster and staff with the team’s play at points of this season, and that has been directed toward Nurse at times too, according to sources. 此外，據消息指出暴龍隊總教練Nick Nurse下賽季將進入合約的最後一年，預計將在今年 夏天成為人們關注的焦點。Nurse在 2019-20 賽季，曾帶領暴龍隊奪得 2019 年 NBA 總 冠軍、贏得 2020 年度最佳教練，並被認為是聯盟最佳教練之一。之後Nurse簽下了一份 每年價值 800 萬美元的合約至 2023-24 賽季。而實際上Nurse合約年限，暴龍從未對外 公布過。據消息人士透露，整個團隊和人員都對球隊在本賽的表現感到沮喪，而且有時也 會對Nurse感到沮喪。 Meanwhile, the two players whose names have been part of trade talks since the early part of the season are Phoenix Suns forward Jae Crowder and Atlanta Hawks big man John Collins. It’s expected both teams will continue strong dialogue regarding both as Feb. 9 nears. 與此同時，自本賽季以來，兩名球員一直都在交易談話中，分別是鳳凰城太陽隊前鋒Jae Crowder 和亞特蘭大老鷹隊John Collins。隨著 2 月 9 日的臨近，預計兩支球隊將以這 兩位球員繼續談判。 In a new development, the Suns have given permission to the Bucks to meet with Crowder and they met over the weekend, league sources tell The Athletic. The Bucks are believed to be the only team that has received permission to visit one-on-one with Crowder, those sources have also indicated. Multiple teams, including the Miami Heat and Hawks, remain interested in Crowder, who is seen by championship-contending teams as a fortifying acquisition at the deadline. Both the Suns and Bucks have engaged in serious trade talks for months, with current proposals surrounding Jordan Nwora, George Hill, Serge Ibaka and second-round draft compensation to Phoenix for Crowder, according to sources. The Bucks and Suns have searched for a third team to provide Phoenix with a forward – so what outcome will emerge between now and next Thursday? 消息人士告訴The Athletic，在一個新的發展中，太陽隊已經允許公鹿隊與Crowder 會面 ，他們在周末會面。消息人士還表示，公鹿隊是唯一一支獲准與Crowder 一對一見面的球 隊。包括邁阿密熱火隊和老鷹隊在內的多支球隊仍然對克勞德感興趣。 據消息人士透露，太陽隊和公鹿隊幾個月來一直在認真談判，目前的提議是Jordan Nwora, George Hill, Serge Ibaka以及一支二輪換取Crowder 。而公鹿隊和太陽隊同時 正在尋找第三方球隊來為太陽提供一名前鋒——那麼從現在到下週四會發生甚麼結果呢？ For their part, the Hawks, under new head of basketball operations Landry Fields, have won six of their last nine games since Jan. 13 and have taken a patient approach with trade talks. Fields has made clear to rival executives that the team views Collins as a valued asset, not one the franchise will simply dump in any form, according to sources. The newfound approach could lead to more traction in the Collins market over the next two weeks. 而老鷹隊，在新任籃球運營總裁Landry Fields的領導下，自 1 月 13 日以來，他們在過 去的九場比賽中贏了六場，並且在談判中採取耐心的態度。據消息人士透露，Fields已經 向外界表明，球隊將Collins視為一項寶貴的資產，不會隨意拋售。據消息，Fields的態 度，會在未來兩週內為 Collins 市場帶來更多吸引力。 The Jazz remain among the teams with strong interest in Collins, and The Athletic’s Kelly Iko reported last week that the Rockets are also pursuing Collins. When the Jazz and Hawks discussed a Collins deal early in the season, Atlanta asked for Malik Beasley and Jarred Vanderbilt, according to sources. The Jazz countered by asking for a first-round pick in return, and when the Hawks declined, talks stalled. It remains to be seen where conversations unfold between Fields and the Jazz’ s front office led by CEO Danny Ainge and GM Justin Zanik. 爵士隊仍對Collins有濃厚興趣，The Athletic的 Kelly Iko上週報導說，火箭隊也在追 求Collins。據消息人士透露，當爵士隊和老鷹隊在本賽季初討論Collins的交易時，老鷹 要求Malik Beasley 和Jarred Vanderbilt。而爵士隊要求以首輪選秀權作為回報，而當 老鷹隊拒絕時，談判陷入僵局。 老鷹 Fields 與爵士管理層之間的對話還有待觀察。 The NBA is less than two weeks from one of the biggest days on the league’s calendar. The buyers and sellers will reveal themselves, and the moves will begin to come. Team executives believe that a championship opportunity is wide open this season, increasing the urgency for some while providing a prolonged marketplace situation. We will have much more to come as talks develop across the league. 距離聯盟交易截止日，還有不到兩週的時間。買家和賣家將現身並展開行動。多名球隊高 管認為，本賽季冠軍機會大開，這增加了一些球隊緊迫性，同時提供了長期的市場走勢。 隨著整個聯盟談判的發展，將會有更多的事情要做。 Charlotte Hornets The Hornets are discussing center Mason Plumlee and forward Kelly Oubre Jr. in trade conversations, sources say. Forward Jalen McDaniels continues to be a name several teams like the Suns, Raptors, Jazz, Pacers and Spurs are closely monitoring, but the Hornets value the 6-foot-9 forward whom they have developed over the past four seasons. Teams with interest and cap space this offseason, such as the Jazz, Pacers and Spurs, may opt to wait until free agency to court McDaniels, who will be unrestricted, instead of trading an asset to acquire him now while having to compensate him in July. 夏洛特黃蜂隊 消息人士稱，黃蜂隊正在討論中鋒 Mason Plumlee利和前鋒Kelly Oubre Jr交易。而前鋒 Jalen McDaniels仍然是太陽隊、暴龍隊、爵士隊、溜馬隊和馬刺隊密切關注的球員，但 黃蜂隊非常重視他們在過去四個賽季培養的前鋒。有興趣和薪資空間的球隊，例如爵士隊 、溜馬隊和馬刺隊，可能會選擇等到休賽季的自由球員市場，才對Jalen McDaniels出手 ，而不是現在用資產來換取他。 Dallas Mavericks The Jazz are expressing strong interest in Mavericks forward Dorian Finney-Smith, as teams have gotten the impression that Dallas would be open to moving the 29-year-old in the right deal for a star-caliber player, sources say. The Mavericks have an incredibly high price threshold for teams reaching out about Finney-Smith, rival executives say. In seven seasons with the Mavericks, Finney-Smith has established himself as a critical two-way wing, well-liked teammate and important for the team’s culture, including being a favorite of MVP candidate Luka Doncic. But it’s clear that Finney-Smith has also become one of Dallas’ main pieces if the organization is to pull off a blockbuster deal for an All-Star player ahead of the deadline or in the offseason. Finney-Smith signed a four-year, $55 million extension last season, placing him under contract through 2024-25 with a player option for 2025-26. 達拉斯獨行俠隊 消息人士稱，爵士隊對Dorian Finney-Smith表現出濃厚的興趣，因為球隊給人的印象是 獨行俠願意以合適的方式交易這名 29 歲的球員。對手高管表示，獨行俠對Dorian Finney-Smith有著極高的價格門檻。 獨行俠的七個賽季中，Finney-Smith已經展現出自己在球隊的地位。但很明顯，如果獨行 俠要在截止日期前或休賽期交易來一位全明星，Finney-Smith會成為重要包裹之一。 Finney-Smith上賽季簽下了一份四年5500 萬美元的合約，並在2025-26 賽季持有的球員 選項。 Denver Nuggets The Nuggets are in active trade conversations around guard Bones Hyland, with teams such as Minnesota expressing interest, according to sources. 丹佛金塊 據消息人士透露，金塊隊正在圍繞後衛Bones Hyland進行積極的交易對話，而灰狼表達了 興趣。 Minnesota Timberwolves Timberwolves guard Jaylen Nowell is leaning toward leaving the team in the offseason via free agency, sources say. Nowell — a 23-year-old guard who is averaging a career-high 10.9 points in 19.7 minutes per game — will be a sought after unrestricted free agent in July. While Nowell has had moments of dynamic scoring this season, he is shooting 43.9 percent from the field and 27.6 percent from 3-point range. Nowell, who is earning $1.9 million in the final season of his rookie deal, is currently eligible for a maximum extension of four years and $58 million. 明尼蘇達灰狼隊 消息人士稱，灰狼後衛Jaylen Nowell傾向於在休賽期以自由球員身份離開球隊。23 歲的 Nowell ，場均出場 19.7 分鐘，得到職業生涯最高的 10.9 分——將在 7 月份成為非受 限自由球員。雖然Nowell 本賽季有過充滿活力的得分時刻，但他的投籃命中率為 43.9% ，三分球命中率為 27.6%。Nowell 在新秀最後一個賽季合約為190 萬美元，目前有資格 獲得最長 4 年和 5800 萬美元的續約。 San Antonio Spurs Several teams are increasing their pursuit of Spurs center Jakob Poeltl, and it appears a move to the Eastern Conference could be possible ahead of the deadline. The Raptors and Celtics are among the teams expressing interest in Poeltl, sources say. The 27-year-old will be arguably the top unrestricted free agent big man in July. 聖安東尼奧馬刺隊 幾支球隊正在積極追求馬刺隊中鋒Jakob Poeltl，目前看起來在截止日期前加入東區球隊 是有可能的。消息人士稱，暴龍隊和賽爾提克隊都對 Poeltl 表示了興趣。Poeltl 將在 七月成為非受限自由球員。 Toronto Raptors The Knicks and Suns are among the interested suitors in Raptors forward O.G. Anunoby, sources say. New York has shown a willingness to offer multiple first-round picks for Anunoby, according to those sources. The Suns, meanwhile, have control of all of their first-round picks — eight in total — through 2030. SNY first reported the Knicks’ interest last week. 多倫多暴龍隊 消息人士稱，尼克和太陽都對OG Anunoby 感興趣。據這些消息人士稱，尼克已經表現出 願意為Anunoby 提供多個首輪選秀權。與此同時，而太陽到2030年共持有八個首輪選秀權 。 --- 今年會大風吹嗎 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 1.163.53.181 (臺灣) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/NBA/M.1675143610.A.E16.html
