标题[打屁] 另一种选项？

As I have pointed out numerous times in the past, the Pelicans have to get
Gordon’s contract off the books by the beginning of next summer at the very
latest. That will be the last summer that the Pelicans will have Anthony
Davis on his rookie contract before a monstrous extension that will start off
at nearly $20 million per year will kick in. The ideal scenario would be to
trade Eric Gordon for an expiring contract this summer or trade him to a team
that has enough cap room to just absorb his salary without giving us anything
in return. The fallback option, if that could not be done, would be to use
the stretch provision next summer to create some flexibility.
下个夏天就必须将EG的合约丢掉，因为AD要换约了，预估将会是每年将近20M。最理想的
就是用EG拿去换到期约，或交易到有足够薪资空间的球队，如果都不行，那就只能等到
下个夏天了。
Trading Gordon this summer for an expiring is possible, but the Pelicans
would likely have to give up assets to get that done because Gordon’s deal
is so bad. The more likely option is that they would have to take back
another questionable long-term contract (McGee, Sanders, Galinari, etc.) but
that does not help them create room for the 2015 free agent class. But let me
ask you this – What if Gordon’s deal was an expiring? What if, instead of
being on a 2 year/$30.4 million contract, he was on a 1 year/$14.8 million
contract? Would that make him much easier to trade?
也许可以拿去换到期约，但更可能的是必须一起丢掉一些有用的资产，因为EG的约实在是
太烂了。最可能的就是换回同样有问题的长约，但那对於球队在2015创造空间一点帮助都
没有。但如果EG的约是到期约呢？是不是会让他更好交易？
The answer is undeniably yes. If Gordon was an expiring, he would be much
more sought after than he would be in a scenario in which a team owed him for
two more years. Suddenly, it becomes an expiring for an expiring swap, and
you can envision scenarios in which the Bulls would prefer to have Gordon for
one year over Carlos Boozer. Or maybe the Knicks would prefer one year of
Eric Gordon over one year of Tyson Chandler. The Bobcats might be willing to
gamble on Gordon if its only for a year, and the same could be said for a
team like the Hawks.
绝对是的，如果EG是到期约，一定会比他还有两年约来的好交易，这样子就会变成是到期
约换到期约，就可以想见公牛或许会比较想要EG而不是Boozer，也或许尼克可能想要EG的
一年约胜过泰山的一年约。山猫或许也想要赌一下，因为也就才一年而已。
All of a sudden, Gordon goes from a negative trade asset to a neutral one,
and that would be HUGE for the Pelicans. But how do we get there? It’s quite
simple actually, and ironically, all we have to do is look back to the trade
in which he was acquired for the answer. The Clippers agreed to send Gordon
and others to New Orleans for Chris Paul under one condition – that Paul
would opt in to the second year of his contract. Paul, like Gordon currently,
had one year left on his deal and a second year that was a player option. The
Clippers did not want to risk making the trade and then losing Paul the
following summer, so they insisted he opt in. He did, and the trade was
completed.
突然间EG从负交易资产变成正常的资产，这对鹈鹕来说是很巨大的。但要怎麽做？其实很
简单，以前快艇就做过了。快艇那时候愿意用EG和其他人来换CP3，但那时候CP3像现在的
EG一样还有二年约，第二年是球员选项，快艇怕CP3不会留下来，所以他们坚持要他执行
球员选项，他也做了，所以交易就完成了。
What the Pelicans need Gordon to do is the exact opposite. The Pelicans need
to inform Gordon and his agent that they can get him to the destination that
he wants and puts him in the role that he wants if he simply agrees to
decline his player option for 2015-16. If he does that, the Pelicans and Rob
Pelinka (Gordon’s agent), could spend the next few weeks fielding offers
from numerous teams and resolving this situation. The Pelicans should want
nothing more than to get Gordon off the books, and Gordon surely wants
nothing more than to showcase his skill set on a team that can utilize him,
with a fan base that might appreciate him.
鹈鹕要EG做的刚好相反，鹈鹕需要去通知EG和他的经纪人，他们可以让他去他想要去的
地方，而且让他担任他想要的角色，只要他愿意放弃15-16年的球员选项。如果他真的
做了，鹈鹕和他的经纪人也许接下来几个礼拜就可以收到其他队的offer，解决这个困
境。鹈鹕想要的就是移掉EG，EG想要的就是在会用他而且球迷也许会喜欢他的球队展现
他的球技。
And if you are Eric Gordon, why wouldn’t you agree to this arrangement? By
his comments, he obviously thinks he is still a top-level NBA player capable
of leading a franchise and “setting a tone.” If you believe that much in
yourself, then prove it. You don’t need the security of that extra year,
because once you go show out to the league, there will be a dozen teams
knocking at your door to give you a new max contract in 2015. And since you
will be further along in your career, the starting salary for that new max
deal will be significantly higher than the last one you signed.
如果你是EG，为什麽你不会同意？照他的言论来看，他明显认为他还是最高层级能够带
领球队的球员。如果你这麽相信你自己，那就证明他吧。你不需要额外一年的保障，因
为一旦你展现给全联盟看，将会有许多球队会在2015年给你最大约。
It’s an ideal scenario for everybody. If you are Demps, you call him up
today and tell him that he will come off the bench if he returns here next
season. But, if he agrees to void his player option, that you will work
hand-in-hand with Gordon and his agent to find him an ideal landing place
this summer. He gets the love and adoration that he desires, and the Pelicans
get to transition to the tandem that should have been their starting
backcourt all along.
对所有人来说这都是最理想的方案。如果你是Dell，你会今天就打给他，告诉他下个球
季他是替补，但如果他如果同意放弃他的球员选项，那就会在今年夏天帮他找最理想的
地方。他会得到他最渴望的爱与崇拜，鹈鹕也可以由他们的明星後场来带领球队。
Sounds like a win-win to me.
对我来说这听起来是双赢
