http://0rz.tw/152NI Instant gratification? Pacers call it free agency 快速补强吗?溜马把希望放在自由球员市场 Team's draftee is years away, but some can help right away 今年的菜鸟还得再磨几年，但有些人现在能马上帮到忙 The NBA draft came and went Thursday with only a minute sound coming from the Indiana Pacers. 在礼拜四的选秀会上，只有一分钟的时间是有和溜马有关的 Their lone draft pick, Croatian center Stanko Barac, won't help them get to the playoffs anytime soon because he is expected to remain in Europe for three years. 他们的菜鸟，克罗埃西亚籍中锋Stanko Barac还会在欧洲磨练三年，对他们短期 内要重返季後赛不会有帮助 The Pacers' next attempt at improving starts Sunday when the free agency period begins. Contracts can be signed starting July 11. 溜马下一波的补强是在礼拜天自由球员市场的开放，球队可以在7月11号开始签约 The Pacers don't have enough cap space to sign an expensive free agent. They have their midlevel exception, which is more than $5 million, and a $4 million trade exception acquired during the eight-player deal with Golden State. 溜马没有足够的薪资空间去签"大咖"的自由球员，他们只有略多余5M的中产条款 和4M的TE，这个TE是在和勇士队进行八人大交易中获得的 "After the draft, everybody looks at their team and they say, 'I need this, I need that,' " Pacers president Larry Bird said. "Now it will start heating up and we'll see what we can do. I expect us to be very active to find the guys coach (Jim) O'Brien feels he needs for this team. (Former coach) Rick (Carlisle) played a different style. We tried to get his type of players. We have a new coach now, so we're going to try and get his style (of players)." "在选秀会之後，每个人都觉得自己的球队得到他们需要的"大鸟说，"而现在 该是我们加把劲做补强的时候了，我们会很积极的寻找Obie认为适合他战术的 球员，他和卡帅的风格截然不同，对新的教练我们会找来适合他风格的球员 Finding an outside shooter, a backup point guard and settling Jermaine O'Neal's future are priorities. 寻找外线射手，替补控卫，和解决小欧未来的定位会是得优先处理的 The Pacers finished 30th in league in field goal percentage last season, leaving O'Neal constantly facing double teams. 溜马在上个球季命中率在联盟垫底，让小欧经常遭到包夹伺候 They are interested in Kareem Rush, a career 35 percent 3-point shooter. He worked out for the Pacers last week after playing in Europe last season. Rush, who scored a career-high 35 points against the Pacers in November 2005, spent five seasons in the league before being released by Charlotte with nine games left in the 2005-06 season because of his work ethic. 他们对Kareem Rush有兴趣，这个身涯35%的三分球命中率的射手，在结束欧洲 的球季之後，在上礼拜接受了溜马的测试，Rush的身涯单场最高得分35分就是 对上溜马，他在NBA打滚了五个球季最後因为努力的问题被山猫炒掉 The Bobcats released a statement at the time about Rush's release, saying: "The Bobcats are about two things -- hard work and maximum effort. With that in mind, we think that it is best to go in a different direction with Kareem." 在山猫开除Rush的原因说明中提到，山猫在乎两件事：用功和最大的努力，因此 我们认为该是Kareem转换跑道的时候 Bird and O'Brien have said they want players who will practice and play hard. The Pacers likely won't have to spend a lot to sign Rush. 大鸟和道长说过他们要的球员是会努力的练习，所以溜马可能不会花大钱签Rush Another possibility is Jason Kapono of the Miami Heat. The unrestricted free agent led the league in 3-point shooting (51.4 percent) last season. 另一个射手的选择是热火队的不受限自由球员Jason Kapono，上个球季三分球 命中率51.4%勇冠全联盟 Kapono only made $1.2 million, and there's a sense the Heat don't plan to get into a bidding war over a one-dimensional offensive player who doesn't defend well. Kapono去年只领1.2M的薪水，而且据传热火队不会参与争夺这位只会单元进攻 而防守实力不怎样的球员 Earl Boykins, Steve Blake and Chucky Atkins are a few point guards that will be available. Veteran Tony Delk, who didn't play in the league last season, also worked out for the Pacers. Earl Boykins, Steve Blake和Chucky Atkins是一些一号位置替补的选择， 去年没打NBA的老江湖Tony Delk也参予了溜马的试训 The team's biggest issue, however, is O'Neal's future. 然而，溜马最大的问题还是在小欧的未来 The Pacers have had numerous discussions with teams, including the Los Angeles Lakers and New Jersey Nets, but no deal appears imminent. The Pacers are interested in acquiring Lamar Odom and Andrew Bynum from Los Angeles, but Lakers officials are reluctant to give away both for O'Neal. 溜马和许多球队包括了湖人、篮网做了许多讨论，但都没有相当的共识， 溜马对湖人的Odom和Bynum都很感兴趣，但湖人不想同时送出这两位以换取 小欧 "We're going to look this summer to maybe do something," Bird said. "If we get the right deal to make us better (we'll do it). If not, we'll come back with what we have." "我们将在这暑假好好观察决定是否改变"大鸟说，"如果我们能进行正确而又 让我们更好的交易我们会做，如果不行，我们还是会保留原状" --
