标题：Jared Dudley Dishes on Lockout, Offseason Plans By: Alex Kennedy Jared Dudley has attended the bargaining meetings, reviewed the proposals and stayed in the loop during these labor talks. As the primary player representative for the Phoenix Suns, Dudley is involved in these negotiations and sharing whatever information he gleans with his teammates. Throughout this process, Dudley insists that the owners haven't been willing to make any compromises, which has led to this current stalemate. Rather than negotiating, Dudley feels that the owners are simply waiting this out in hopes that the players eventually come around and accept their proposal. Dudley 是太阳队主要的球员代表，前阵子的劳资谈判会议他都有参与，他会审查那些 会议的提议，并且分享这些讯息给其他队友们知道。 经过这麽多次会议，Dudley 认为这些老板们并没有诚意要跟他们妥协，这也导致眼前 的僵局。Dudley 觉得他们只想等着让封馆发生，然後暗自揣测球员们的心态，最後只 能接受资方提议。 "There's no negotiating," Dudley told HOOPSWORLD. "Until the owners are willing to negotiate, we're going to be locked out. The reason that the players have to do this is because if we took their deal, it would be the worst deal that any players association has ever accepted - not only in basketball, but in baseball, football and hockey as well." "They don't want any guaranteed deals. They want to have a hard cap. They want the highest paid player to make $13 million, when Kobe Bryant is supposed to make $25 million next season. They want to move our revenue sharing from 57 percent to 47 percent. They want to guarantee that every owner makes a profit of at least $10 million each year, no matter what. That's the biggest one. Even if the owner hires a terrible general manager and doesn't run the team well, they will still gain a profit. You can't have that. You really can't have that because there has to be consequences for every action. If you were a bad writer and interviewed the wrong people, you would get fired from your job. There has to be consequences," Dudley added. Dudley 告诉 HOOPSWORLD 的记者： 「除非他们有心要跟我们谈，否则这根本谈都甭谈。现在这样的局面也是我们球员迫不 得已的，因为他们提议的新方案未来会是最糟糕的合约，不只是篮球员，就连棒球员 、美式足球员或是冰上曲棍球员都会无法接受的。」 「他们无法提供保障合约，只想规定薪资硬上限，像是 Kobe 那样的顶级球星下季年薪 将有2500万镁，但他们未来只肯付1300万镁。他们想占有更多利益，希望将BRI从57% 调降到47%，不管怎样，只想着如何让每位老板一年至少获益1000万镁。这就是问题 所在，即使老板雇来一位很差劲的GM，让球队运作不怎样，他们还是可以获得一笔收 入，而你也不用想分到半分钱，因为接下来你会沦为这种体制下恶性循环的受害者。 如果你是文笔不怎样的作家，还去采访一位不合题材的人，那就等着被炒鱿鱼吧！就 　是这种後果。」 　 Dudley and his peers are adamant that they won't accept this latest proposal. In fact, they would opt to miss multiple seasons before giving in to the deal that the owners have put on the table. "If they refuse to change their views, we would lock out the whole year, maybe even two years," Dudley said. "That would be better for players than agreeing to their deal." "My contract would be cut back 40 percent under their new deal," he added. "Every contract that has already been signed would be different. LeBron James and Kobe Bryant have signed contracts, but their deal would be rolled back 40 percent. Players can't accept that. We might as well just forfeit the season because losing 40 percent of my whole deal is more than one year of my contract." Dudley 跟他的同伴都坚持不接受资方最後的提议，他们宁可选择错过几个赛季。 他说：「如果他们拒绝改变自己的想法，我们已有心理准备会取消整季，甚至可能是 两年。与其同意他们的合约，我们还不如继续封馆或另作打算。」 「依据他们的新约，会使我本来的合约裁减40%，其他球员像是 LeBron 跟 Kobe 已经签订的合约全都会变不一样，跟我一样少了40%。大家都会不能接受，我 们可能就乾脆放弃这个赛季不打了，因为少掉合约40%的钱，比我一整年的薪 资还多。」 Many have wondered if players will be able to hold their position once they start missing games and paychecks. Dudley believes that players are financially ready for this lockout, and credits the union for preparing everyone well in advance of the work stoppage. "Since I've been in the league, which is four years, they've been letting me know that there would most likely be a lockout," Dudley said. "They made it clear three or four years ago that the owners were preparing for this. The players association has held eight percent of every player's contract and they'll be giving that to every player in August to help them. Whatever money that a player made in their deal, they'll get eight percent of that back so even if players have spent their money, they'll be alright." 许多人都想知道，一旦球员这方失去舞台跟薪水，是否会坚持自己的立场? Dudley 相信都大家早就做好封馆的准备。他说： 「我踏入NBA已经四年，这段期间的观察让我提前意识到可能会封馆，早在三、四年 前，我感觉到他们已经在酝酿。球员工会每年都会托管球员8%的合约金，直到八月 再发还给大家(结算是否超过BRI的57%)，现在看来，无论球员签的约是多少钱，他 们都能取回那8%的钱(因为到时候根本不可能超过57%)，所以球员把这笔钱先花掉 也没关系，反正到时也会觉得没必要被拿去托管。」 However, if certain players aren't alright, Dudley has no remorse for them. They'll have nobody to blame but themselves because they've had plenty of time to prepare. "If a player isn't ready now, then they'll never be ready for life after basketball," Dudley said. "If you had four years in advance to save your money and you didn't, then you deserve to be broke. You deserve to have problems." 然而，对某些球员还来不及做好因应。Dudley 并不同情他们，因为他们本来就有很 多时间可以做准备，时至今日再来怪罪其他人也没用。 Dudley 说：「如果有人到现在还没做好准备，那麽他们未来的篮球生涯也永远都不 用准备了。如果你有四年先预存一些钱，但你却没那麽做，那你财务 出问题，那都是你自己必须去承受的。」 Dudley doesn't have to worry about financial problems anytime soon because he signed a five-year, $22.5 million extension with the Suns in November. While he believes he could've gotten more had he become a free agent, he didn't want to test the market with a lockout looming and preferred the additional security that comes with signing midseason. "I knew [free agency] would be a huge problem so I basically took less for more of a guarantee," Dudley said. "Even though I potentially could have gotten more money, there was also a chance that I could have lost that money. I didn't want to put myself in a predicament where I had an injury or a freak accident. I wanted to make sure that I was in a position where I could make sure my family was taken care of for the rest of our lives." Dudley 并不担心他有任何财务问题，因为他去年11月才跟太阳签了2250万的五年 约。他认为自己已打出身价，足以投入自由市场测试身价，但他不想冒着封馆的风 险，於是在季中选择较有保险的长期合约。 他说：「尽管我有条件去争取更优渥的合约，但我明白成为自由球员会存在许多风 险，所以我後来想少领一点但较有保障的合约。我不想让自己处於可能受 伤或发生意外的未知环境，我比较希望家人能获得稳定且完善的照顾。」 However, Dudley may end up signing a contract this summer after all: If the lockout isn't resolved in the next several months, he will likely sign with a Chinese team. "It would definitely become an option if they canceled the season," Dudley said. "I'm expecting to miss some games, but I'm also expecting to have a NBA season. If December or January comes around and we're still locked out, I would probably go to China for three or four months and make some money. I don't know if I would go anywhere else. China's seasons are shorter and it would be a really cool experience." 如果接下几个月还在封馆，Dudley 今年夏天最後可能会签下另一份新约，很可能 会跟中国的球队接洽。 他说：「如果取消整个赛季，那我就很可能会这麽选择。我预料会错失一些比赛， 但我也希望NBA能如期开打。如果不幸的十二月或明年一月都还在封馆， 我可能就去中国打工三、四个月赚些钱，我不晓得我还能去什麽地方，中 国的球季较短而且那也会是很Cool的体验。」 In the meantime, Dudley will be training at Impact Basketball in Las Vegas. He signed a two-month lease for August and September, and is determined to bulk up this offseason. "I'm in the weight room a lot more this year," he said. "I've already lifted more times this summer than I did the last two summers combined. I'm just trying to get stronger. I'm also working on shooting when coming off of screens and one-dribble pull-ups. I'm trying to make those more consistent because they're really big for the Phoenix Suns, if you look at what we're trying to do. I'm making sure I'm in tip-top shape and trying to get stronger." 休赛期间为了维持球感，Dudley 将会去拉斯维加斯加入一个小型篮球赛，他已经 签了两个月的短约(8月~9月)。 他说：「今年我在重量训练房的工作量更胜以往，我比过去两年更加投入，我想变 得更强壮。关於投篮，我也下了一番功夫( http://bit.ly/qoBTQd )，我 想让我的投篮出手更加稳定，对太阳会是很大的助益。目前一切都还满顺 利的在进行中。」 When he's not lifting weights or listening in on the bargaining meetings, he'll be keeping his fans in the know. Dudley is one of the most interactive and accessible professional athletes, and promises to stay connected with his fans during the lockout. "I try to give updates," Dudley said. "Whenever Billy Hunter updates me, I try to put it out there unless it's related to negotiations or something that I can't talk about. I'll definitely keep people up-to-date on my workouts and what's going on with the lockout." Dudley 没在重训房健身或是在会议上听证时，他都会跟他的球迷分享最新资讯。 他也是一位很会跟球迷互动的球员，跟他的球迷允诺封馆期间会保持连系。 他说：「工会长 Hunter 提供给我最新消息时，我会筛选一些无法透露的事，能够讲 的最新进展就会告诉他们，这阵子我一定会跟人们保持联络。」 参考连结 http://www.hoopsworld.com/Story.asp?story_id=20417 https://twitter.com/JaredDudley619 --
