The price: a future first-round pick and an $8.9 million trade exception for the cap-strapped Lakers, who felt compelled to make the move after being stymied in their efforts to land point guard Chris Paul in a broader deal days earlier. 去年12月11日，湖人将队中让人捉摸不透的Odom——其效率指数刚刚达到个人11年职业生 涯之中的最高值19.4，和一个2012年的次轮选秀权打包送给了卫冕冠军达拉斯小牛队。收 获是：来年的首轮签位和给予受困薪资限制的湖人以890万美元的交易特例。而就在交 易发生的几天前，湖人试图在大交易中换来CP3的计划因联盟的阻挠而流产。 Widely known as someone who does not always thrive in unfamiliar surroundings, Odom struggled in Dallas, posting career lows in just about every major statistical category, including minutes (20), points (6.6), rebounds (4.4) and the aforementioned player efficiency rating (a lowly 9.2). On April 9, after months of back page acrimony and speculation, Odom and the Mavericks parted ways. 很多熟悉Odom的人都知道，此人来到陌生的环境後总是羞答答的不肯马上发光发热；来 到小牛後，Odom马上表现出水土不服的症状，各项主要数据全面下跌，其中包括：上场 时间（20分钟），场均得分（6.6），篮板（4.4）以及此前提到的球员效率值（新低9.2 ）。4月9日这天，在小牛内部经历了数月针对奥多姆的整风运动失败以及评估未果之後， 他和小牛的缘分终於尽了。 Now, the Knicks may be in a position to bring the versatile forward aboard. 现在，尼克的机会来了，他们可以将这位全能型前锋招至麾下。 Last week, reports surfaced indicating the Knicks were atop Odom’s wish list of potential off-season suitors. For that to happen, both sides will need a financial sleight of hand. The Mavericks have until June 29 to find a potential trade partner on whom they can unload Odom and his $8.2 million salary. 上周，有消息暗指尼克是Odom在休赛期考虑的最心仪的新东家之一。若希望此事成行 ，双方需要在金钱方面上坐下来好好的'推心置腹'一番。小牛直到6月9日这天方能卸掉 Odom以及他的820万美元的薪金去追求一个潜在的交易对象。 Regardless of which team holds Odom’s rights on that day, it will have two choices: keep Odom aboard and pay him in full; or waive him to the tune of a $2.4 million buyout. Considering his precipitous decline in production this year, it’s not a given that another team will assume the risk that a disengaged Odom clearly presents. As such, there is a strong possibility that any team looking to deal for Odom will be doing so under the auspices of opening cap space, making the possibility that Odom ultimately gets the waiver ax that much more likely. 不管那天哪支球队会接纳Odom，该球队都会面临两种选择：留下Odom，付他全额中产 ；或者以240万美元的价格裁掉他。考虑到Odom本赛季状态下滑，其他球队很可能不会 冒险留下他。因为一旦留下Odom，球队将不得不打开受限制的薪金空间，所以最终Odoｍ 更可能被裁掉。 Which brings us back to the Knicks. Assume for a moment that someone – be it Dallas or its theoretical trade partner – decides to waive Odom, thereby making him an unrestricted free agent. At that point, he could very well find his way to Manhattan. But given how many ducks the Knicks have in line, with the contracts of Jeremy Lin, Landry Fields, J.R. Smith, Steve Novak and Jared Jeffries all up in the air, signing Odom will have to be done on the thinnest of shoestrings. 如此，我们再来谈谈尼克。不管最终哪只球队决定裁掉Odom，使之变成一个不受限制 的自由球员。届时Odom很有可能来到曼哈顿'观观光'。考虑到纽约有一批球员排着队待 签——林书豪，Fields，JR.Smith，Novak以及Jeffries，如若想搞定Odom，纽约非需 花小钱办大事不可。 But if Odom – born and raised in Queens and by all accounts fully fond of his native city – is willing to do what Baron Davis did and sign for the veteran’s minimum, it will be another coup for a Knicks front office once again trying to thread the eye of the salary needle. 但是如果Odom——这儿有生他养他的皇后区以及他热爱的城市——愿意效仿B.Davis 那样跟纽约签个老将底薪，那不得不勒紧裤腰带过日子的纽约管理层不得像中了500万彩 票一样手舞足蹈欣喜若狂啊。 As for the actual roster, and Odom’s potential role therein, the fit could not be more ideal. At 6 feet 10 inches, Odom is a veritable Swiss army knife of skills and strengths, all of which the Knicks could use. As the first forward off the bench, Odom would be the perfect plug-in for Amar’e Stoudemire, while giving the second unit – marshaled as it very well could be by the enigmatic Toney Douglas – a second reliable ball handler through which myriad halfcourt sets could be run. Couple that with serviceable rebounding and defense, and a long-renowned passing prowess, particularly out of the post, you have a player whose versatility and dynamism could do wonders for a top-heavy team pining for depth. 至於到时Odom在球队当中的角色定位以及融入问题，我表示这根本不是问题。Odom有 6尺10寸，集技巧与力量於一体，是把名副其实的瑞士军刀，尼克可以好好利用之。作 为板凳席上的首席前锋，他可以完美的接过Stoudemire手中的枪，带领很有可能是有TD控 球的第二分队执行大量半场进攻战术。加上Odom有品质保证的篮板球技术、防守能 力以及一手漂亮的传球绝活（尤其是高位传球），他会成为这支头重脚轻的球队的一个完 美的补充。 At 32 and not far removed from one of the most productive seasons of his career, it is hard to think of Odom as merely biding his time in the twilight. His strange stint in Dallas revealed the darker side of a psyche ravaged by too many tragedies to count, and to that end his agent’s remark that Odom is just looking for a place to “be comfortable” is likely an accurate one. The fact that Odom’s native New York happens to be one of the places should be enough to give any Knicks fan positive pause. Odom如今32岁，并且距离其职业生涯的高产期并不遥远，Odom可不是啥昨日黄花。他 在小牛的奇特经历向人们展示了其遭受过太多悲剧事件打击的精神世界之阴暗面。他的经 济人说过Odom只是需要一个'温暖的家'，没准就是这样。Odom在纽约土生土长的事实 可能会让任何纽约球迷（对其到来）感到放心吧。 For a franchise too often content to overpay past-prime talent, getting Lamar Odom on the cheap would prove not only a wallet-friendly move, but one chock-full of homecoming intrigue as well. Now that Mike Woodson’s extension has put a stop to Phil Jackson’s full-circle swan song, the return of a prodigal – and prodigiously talented – son seems not a bad consolation prize. 对於一支总是砸大钱买过气球星的球队而言，如若能花小钱淘到Odom，再来点'欢迎你 回家——Odom'的氛围，真真是两全其美。既然纽约已经给了Woodson一份续约合同，那 麽尽管这表明禅师暂时不会来了，但是想想看如果Odom浪子归家，这对球队而言也算是个 安慰奖了。 原文:http://ppt.cc/tj26 翻译:http://bbs.hupu.com/3752822.html --
