Curry bullish on Atlanta? Center unhappy with lack of contract talk progress By SEKOU SMITH The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Published on: 07/08/05 A Hawks roster that includes both Joe Johnson and Eddy Curry might not be quite as far-fetched as it sounds. 当Hawks的阵容中同时拥有Joe Johnson与Eddy Curry，也许Hawks距离一支完整的球队已 经不远了。 Not with news that Johnson could receive a maximum contract offer from the Hawks on July 22 and that Curry is willing to depart from his hometown Bulls because contract negotiations with Chicago are moving much slower than he anticipated. 除了提供给Joe Johnson一张顶级合约之外，Curry也因为不满与Bulls的续约谈判进展不 如预期，颇有离乡的意愿。 Johnson, a restricted free agent, had a breakout season for the Suns last year but reportedly received a contract offer from the Suns last week that was less than the maximum amount allowed under league rules for free agents. Johnson这位RFA去年在Suns的表现破茧而出，然而据信Suns在上星期对他提出的合约金额 并非MAX。 The Arizona Republic reported the Hawks intend to offer Johnson a maximum contract — five years and between $68 million and $72 million. Arizona Republic报导指出Hawks打算提供Johnson一张5年35M-72M的顶级合约。 The Suns can offer about $90 million for six seasons but reportedly made an offer for six years and just $60 million. Suns则能够提供一张6年约90M的合约，但报导指出他们只提出了6年60M。 But the Suns can match any offer to Johnson, within seven days, since he's a restricted free agent. 但是Suns能够（也愿意）在7天内跟进别队对Johnson的offer--因为他是RFA。 Curry, also a restricted free agent, has recently resumed daily workouts after his season ended March 30 due to episodes with an irregular heartbeat. Curry也是一位RFA，自从上季在3月30号後发生心律不整问题後，他现在已经恢复了每天 的练习。 But he's made little progress in his contract negotiations with the Bulls. 但是与Bulls的续约谈判进展非常缓慢。 "They said that once I got cleared, they were going to lock me up [with a new contract], and that was going to be it," Curry told the Chicago Sun-Times . "But that doesn't seem like it's going to happen. It certainly isn't happening right now. It's definitely leaving a sour taste in my mouth. . . . Curry告诉Chicago Sun-Times：「他们说我一但澄清所有疑虑後，将会给我一张新合约， 而陷在这件事情也在进展中。但是我们现在似乎触礁了，现在就续约肯定不会发生，我的 感觉不太好。」 "I never wanted to leave Chicago, but it's a strong possibility that could happen from the way things look." Curry：「我从来就不想离开Chicago，但现在看起来很有机会发生。」 The Bulls are reportedly offering an incentive-laden contract to protect themselves in case Curry's irregular heartbeat becomes an issue again. Bulls被报导提供了Curry一张有附带条件的合约，以保障当Curry的心律不整问题再度发 生时，Bulls不会再受伤害。 A team like the Hawks could offer a lucrative deal without those incentives and force the Bulls to match or pay more than they are willing, forcing a sign-and-trade deal that could possibly include Hawks forward Al Harrington. 当然Hawks不会在合约上附带条件，而且可以逼Bulls花更多的钱去跟进Hawks的offer， 亦或是强迫Bulls S&T--Al Harrington应该会包括在内。 But one hurdle in a potential deal for Curry is that he doesn't intend to work out for interested teams, a stipulation most teams are sure request before offering him a contract. 但是要签下Curry一项潜在的障碍是，Curry不愿意去像那些对他有兴趣的球队，证明他的 身体状况。 The Hawks have maintained an organizational gag order on their free-agent plans. But with an estimated $24 million or more of salary cap space to work with, their status on the free-agent market is that of a major player. Hawks目前在FA市场上仍然不愿意公开行事，但是以Hawks24M以上的薪资空间而言，他们肯 定是FA市场上的主要行为者之一。 Chris Grant leaves Hawks Hawks vice president of basketball operations/assistant general manager Chris Grant has left the organization for the same position in Cleveland. Hawk的副执行长与助理GM--Chris Grant已经离开球团到Cleveland担任同样的职务。 Grant spent nine seasons with the Hawks, working as everything from a video intern to director of scouting before becoming an assistant general manager. Grant在Hawks工作了9年，在做到助理GM前，他从一个实习员做到斥侯的主管。 Williams deal near Hawks rookie Marvin Williams could have his multi-year, multi-million dollar contract signed by the time he takes the floor Monday for the start of the Hawks rookie/free agent mini-camp. Hawks的菜鸟Marvin Williams将能够在星期一到达Hawk所举办的菜鸟与FA的迷你训练营报到 到时，得到一张复数年，数百万元的合约。 Several other first round picks from last month's draft have already signed contracts, including No. 1 overall pick Andrew Bogut, who signed his deal 72 hours after the draft. 一些在第一轮中选的其他新秀，早就拿到了他们的合约，包括选秀状元Andrew Bogut在中 选後72小时之内就签下合约。 Teams playing in early summer leagues tend to sign their picks before summer league play begins. The Hawks don't start summer league play until July 15 in Salt Lake City, where they'll join Charlotte, Dallas, San Antonio, Seattle and Utah in the Reebok Rocky Mountain Revue. ummer League开打前与新进球员签约，但是Hawks的RM Revue要到 7月15才在盐湖城开打（懒惰鬼）--Charlotte，Dallas，San Antonio，Seattle都会参加 。 -- 最新消息：Curry要去Atlanta与球团会面罗~ 资料来源 http://www.ajc.com/sports/content/sports/hawks/0705/09hawks.html --
