Ａｒｔｅｓｔ有人要吗？ 溜马表示球队将试着交易他 Any takers for Artest? Pacers say they will try to trade him 记者： Mark Montieth 联络方式：[email protected] Al Harrington knows all too well what can happen when an NBA player demands a trade. And it's not always pretty. 没人比 Al Harrington 更了解当一位ＮＢＡ球员要求被交易的时候会发生什麽事情。 当真发生这事时，通常不会太赏心悦目。 Harrington, frustrated over his limited opportunities as a reserve, asked the Indiana Pacers for a trade following the 2003-04 season. He got it. To Atlanta , where he's getting all the opportunity a player could desire and is stuck with the NBA's worst team. 为了替补身分、上场时间有限的等事感到不平衡的 Harrington 要求溜马在０３０４ 球季後将他交易出去。他如愿以偿。结果，他到了老鹰队，他得到所有想要的机会， 他也因此卡在ＮＢＡ战绩最烂的球队里。 Had Ron Artest called his former teammate before going public with his trade request, he would have received a few earfuls of advice. 如果　Ａｒｔｅｓｔ　给这位前队友一通电话问问意见再对外发表交易的声明。 他应该会批哩啪拉的被一堆建议淹没。 "If I was in his position, there's no way I'd ever want to leave Indiana," Harrington said in a telephone interview Monday evening. "No way in the world. To have the opportunity he had there and to be on a winning team, too? That's a no-brainer." 在周一晚间的电话专访中， Harrington 说：「如果换做是我，我绝对不会想要离开 溜马。绝对不可能。有他现在有的机会，又在一支强队。脑残才想转队。」 It's ironic, then, that Artest's wish to leave the Pacers could bring back Harrington. That, at least, is one of the more plausible scenarios as the Pacers begin their scavenger hunt for a suitable deal for their controversial All-Star forward. 很讽刺的， Artest 的想走可能带来 Harrington 的回头。至少，这是溜马急忙替他们 争议性超强、全明星等级前锋安排去处时比较有可能出现的情况之一。 Pacers CEO Donnie Walsh said Monday he'll try to grant Artest's request, but emphasized he'll remain selective. He might not be able to get equal value in return, but he'll insist on a trade that makes long-term sense."You can bet on that," he said. Ｐａｃｅｒｓ　ＣＥＯ， Donnie Walsh周一说到他会让 Artest 如愿以偿，但是他 也强调进行交易时「也是会挑的」。他可能没办法谈到一个在帐面上打平的结果， 但是，他会坚持谈到有远见的交易结果。他说到：你可以确定这事（去谈一个有远见 的交易）。 The most logical step seems to be to try to trade Artest for a starting small forward. Walsh, however, said Stephen Jackson can make a short-term switch to small forward, as he did last season when Artest was suspended for the season's final 73 games, and that rookie Danny Granger shows promise as a long-term replacement. Those options will allow Walsh to consider players who play other positions, or to work out a package deal that includes several players. 最合理的做法是拿 Artest 换一个先发小前锋。不过 Walsh 提到 Stephen Jackson 可以像上季 Artest 被禁赛时一样暂代小前锋的位置，而假以时日，新人 Danny Granger 则有接替小前锋的潜力。这些可能性让 Walsh 可以考虑找来一位打其他位置的球员， 或者规划一个包括多位球员的交易。 "Whatever the best option is, that's what we'll go for," Walsh said. "You're always conscious of position and where you need help, but we have a pretty deep roster. Whatever the option is, if it's out there and it works for us, we'll take it." Walsh 说：「最好的选择是什麽我们就选什麽。你当然知道球队哪个位置需要补强， 但是我们的阵容相当有深度。不管有什麽选择，只要对我们有帮助，我们就要。」 Artest's salary of $6.8 million is low for a player of his caliber, which complicates the Pacers' challenge. If he is traded for one or more players, the incoming contracts would have to match his salary within 125 percent. Deals can be leveled with draft picks and/or cash. 以身手来说， Artest 六百八十万的身价实在超值，而这增添对溜马的挑战性。如果 他换来一位或是几位选手，这些转进溜马的球员身价总值必须在 Artest 薪水的 １２５％之内。现金、选秀权可以用来加码。 Harrington is one of the few players reasonably close to Artest in talent who falls into that category. He's in the final year of the four-year contract extension he signed with the Pacers in October 2002, and while he has stated no public wish to leave Atlanta after this season, it's at least a strong possibility. Harrington 是少数几个在薪资考量符合的前提下，与 Artest 能力匹配的人选。他 正在合约延长期的最後一年，这合约是在２０００年１０月与溜马签订的。即使他从 来没有公开讲过想要离开老鹰，这选择可能性相当高。 Atlanta, then, could get an All-Star under contract through the 2007-08 season for a player it might lose without compensation after this season. Artest has an option for the 2008-09 season and will almost certainly take it. 老鹰队可以藉着交易出一位本季之後不加码就可能走的球员（ＡＬ），得到一位全明 星等级球员（ Artest ），而且这位全明星球员合约签到０７－０８球季。 Artest 可以在０８－０９行使选择权，而他应该会使用这个权利。 The Pacers, however, would risk losing Harrington after this season. 然而，溜马就会冒着季後就失去 Harrington 的风险。 Harrington, who speaks almost daily with Pacers forward Jermaine O'Neal, chose his words carefully when asked about the possibility of returning. But he wouldn't be opposed to it. 天天都跟Ｏ’Ｎｅａｌ热线的 Harrington 面对可能回到溜马队的话题显得很小心。 但是，他没有表示反对。 "I guess I'd embrace it and come in and play hard and play the best I could," said Harrington, who averages 17.1 points and 8.2 rebounds for the Hawks. " I'm not in control of that. But I wouldn't be mad, you know what I'm saying? 他说到：「我想我会诚心诚意的接受这档事，而且拿出全力好好的打球。我控制不了 这整件事情，但是我也不会抓狂，你懂吗？」他在老鹰队平均１７．１分８．２篮板 "It's not my choice. But Indiana's a great team and it would be a great opportunity." 他继续说：「这不是我能决定的事情，但是溜马是很棒的球队，（能在那边打球） 会很棒。」 Sacramento forward Peja Stojakovic has been mentioned in trade rumors for Artest in seasons past, although Walsh said Monday he has never attempted to move Artest. Stojakovic is known as a great shooter but a poor defender and rebounder. He has slumped this season, averaging 18 points on 43 percent shooting, but is a three-time All-Star and a career 40 percent 3-point shooter. 一直以来，国王队前锋 Peja Stojakovic 就时常在 Artest 的交易中被提起。即使 周一 Walsh 刚说过他绝对不会动 Artest。 Stojakovic 出名在他是个优秀的射手， 但是个很差的防守者，也不会抓篮板。本季他表现下滑，平均１８分命中率４３％ 但是曾经三度入选全明星赛，生涯三分球命中率４０％。 The Kings, meanwhile, are struggling at 9-12 and might want to upgrade their defense. ９胜１２败的国王正在苦苦挣扎，也许想要把球队的防守好好升级一下。 Another possibility in a one-for-one trade might be Dallas swingman Jerry Stackhouse, who played one season for Pacers coach Rick Carlisle in Detroit. Stackhouse, who hasn't played this season because of a sore knee, averaged 14.9 points off the Mavericks' bench last season 另一个一对一的交易人选是小牛队摇摆人 Jerry Stackhouse，曾经在 Carlisle 执教活塞队时效力於他。本季因为膝痛还没上场的 Stackhouse 上季在小牛担任替补 平均攻下１４．９分。 The Mavericks are emphasizing defense more under coach Avery Johnson, and Artest listed Dallas as a team he would be comfortable with in his conversation with The Star on Saturday. 小牛队在 Avery Johnson 教练的手中正开始强调防守，而 Artest 在周六专访中 也曾经提到愿意去小牛队。 Artest also listed New York and Cleveland as favorable destinations. Artest 也把尼克、骑士列为最佳选择。 The Knicks seem less equipped to make a one-for-one deal, though. Jamal Crawford, Quentin Richardson and Malik Rose are their only players within range of Artest's salary. 尼克队似乎比较难进行一对一交易。 Jamal　Crawford、 Quentin Richardson 以及 Malik Rose 是唯「三」跟 Artest 薪资接近的球员。 Artest also said he would be willing to back up LeBron James in Cleveland. James told Cleveland reporters Monday he would welcome Artest. Artest 也提到愿意到骑士队当 LeBron James 的替补。周一， James 告诉当地 记者他欢迎 Artest 加入。 "Every team in this league could use a guy like Ron Artest," James said. "There's no doubt about it." James 说：不用说，联盟每支球队都需要 Ron Artest 这种球员。 Former Pacers guard Reggie Miller doesn't see that happening, however. Citing Harrington as an example, Miller said he expects Artest to wind up with a losing team. Reggie Miller则有不同的看法， Miller 举 Harrington 为例，表示他个人认为 Artest 最後会被交易到烂队。 "Where's (Ron) going to be happy, Toronto?" Miller said Monday. "You think Al's happy right now? Miller 说：他（ Artest ）去哪才开心？暴龙吗？你觉得ＡＬ现在开心吗？ "It's like I tell guys all the time . . . the grass isn't always greener on the other side. I told Al, 'Be careful, because it ain't like (Walsh) is going to ship you to Detroit or San Antonio,' where he can come back and hurt us. That would be stupid. So if he (Artest) thinks he's going to go to New York, or if he thinks he's going to go to Cleveland -- unless they send us LeBron back -- only way he's going to Cleveland is if he's going to The Flats." Miller 还说：「这我老早就跟他们讲过了，转队不一定比较好（对面的草皮不会比较 绿）。而且，要当心， Walsh 不会把你送到活塞、马刺，让你可以回来电电我们。 这很蠢。所以，如果 Artest 觉得他会去尼克或是骑士，可以啊，拿 LeBron 来换 就行。或者，他想去克利夫兰，可以啊，去那边出唱片吧（ Flats 似乎是个餐厅、 酒吧聚集处．．．在克利夫兰）。 Walsh disputed that notion, however."It doesn't matter," he said. "It's whoever offers us the best deal for our team." 不过 Walsh 对这个讲法不表赞同，他说：「不论如何，谁给的条件最好就是谁。」。 若要联络本文记者请电 Mark Montieth at (317) 444-6406. 本文承 Mike Wells 与 Bob Kravitz 两位大力相助。 Ｐａｃｅｒｓ　ｉｎ　Ｓｔｏｒｍ　．Ｐａｃｅｒｓ　ｉｎ　Ｓｔｏｒｍ　． 感想．．Ｍｉｌｌｅｒ对於 Artest 可能去哪里的看法最中肯．． 我彷佛看Ｗａｌｓｈ坐在办公桌前，室内全黑，面朝向墙上全队球员合照处沉思。 一道闪电划过天际，Ｂｉｒｄ静静站在窗前，嘴角一扬，缓缓的说： 「得罪了方丈还想走．．．．太天真了．．」 这写法．．会不会太欢乐了啦？ --
