新聞出處:http://ppt.cc/3aIe 作者:Brian Robb Paul Pierce has played 16 NBA seasons, but he made it clear after the Brooklyn Nets’ season-ending loss to the Miami Heat Wednesday night that his career was far from over. “I think I still have something left in the tank I can give a team,” Pierce told reporters in Miami. “Maybe one or two [years] at the most.” Pierce’s willingness to play beyond this season was just about the only thing he was willing to commit to on Wednesday night, as he dodged questions about his future with the Nets. The 36-year-old forward will enter this offseason as an unrestricted free agent for the first time since the summer of 2010. He has plenty of options to weigh as he considers where he wants to finish his storied NBA career. Let’s take a look at some of the possibilities. 在輸給邁阿密熱火之後，保羅-皮爾斯結束了自己在NBA第16個賽季的征程，而在比賽結束 之後，他很明確地表示自己的NBA生涯還沒有結束。 “我認為我依舊能為一隻球隊做貢獻。”皮爾斯在邁阿密告訴記者，“我可能還能再打 1-2年。” 對於未來，皮爾斯只願意說這麼多了，在周三的晚上當記者問道他在籃網的未來的時候， 皮爾斯並沒有直接回答這個問題。 這個36歲的小前鋒將在這個休賽期變成自己完全自由球員，這是自從2010年夏天以來皮爾 斯第一次變成自由球員，對於他來說，下一站充滿著無數的可能。 讓我們來看看他可能的幾個選擇吧。 Brooklyn Nets Despite Pierce’s hesitation to talk about re-signing with the Nets this summer, Brooklyn has to be considered a slight favorite to bring back Pierce— at least until we hear about the status of Kevin Garnett for next season. Pierce and Garnett are great friends, and the small forward was instrumental in convincing Garnett to waive his no-trade clause last summer to allow for the deal to New York. That reality makes it very unlikely that Pierce would desert his friend in Brooklyn if the big man plans on playing one more season. Garnett is under contract with the Nets through next year and will earn $12 million during the 2014-15 season if he suits up. The NBA world knows retirement is a very real possibility for Garnett after he suffered through an injury-plagued season in which he played a career-low 54 regular-season games. The Big Ticket will turn 38 next week and may not want to run it back with a Nets team that has limited resources to improve itself this offseason. If Garnett calls it quits, the factors influencing Pierce’s decision could change in a major way. Not only will his friend be gone, but a valuable piece of Brooklyn’s frontcourt will be as well, one that the team will be unable to replace in free agency. In that case, Pierce may believe the Nets as composed do not have a realistic shot at the NBA title and choose to move on. The other advantage the Nets have in retaining Pierce is his Bird rights. The veteran earned $15.3 million this season, and while he won’t get that kind of money in his next deal, the Nets have the ability to outbid any other team in free agency for Pierce’s services. If money is what Pierce is ultimately after, he will stay with the Nets, since they will be desperate to retain him. Pierce has earned over $180 million dollars over his career, however, so money might not be a deciding factor for him in his next deal. My guess is Garnett’s return and winning will take precedence, so a decision by Garnett on his future will be the first and biggest domino to fall when it comes to Pierce’s chances of re-signing in Brooklyn. 大意是說 籃網簽老皮的機率在KG手上 KG續留 老皮才會待 且老皮這賽季是1530W元 下賽季雖然不能拿到那麼多錢 但基於想簽老皮的球隊 可能工資帽不夠 但籃網老闆有錢 所以可以支付的錢也會比其他想追求老皮的球隊多 所以錢也是一個因素 Boston Celtics If Pierce does decide to spurn the Nets, a reunion with the Celtics has to be considered a possibility. The former Boston captain told reporters back in March that he would consider a return to the team with which he played his first 15 NBA seasons. "Yeah, why not?" Pierce said. "Maybe as a player, maybe as a coach. Who knows what the future holds?" While a Pierce return to Boston would make for a feel-good story, it takes two sides to tango in free agency, and Danny Ainge isn’t exactly the sentimental type. The Celtics president did not rule out a return entirely in a radio interview last month on WEEI-FM. “At the right price, right circumstance,” Ainge said of a Pierce return. League sources told Bleacher Report, however, that they don’t think Pierce is high on the Celtics' priority list this offseason in the midst of a rebuild. If Ainge manages to pull off some “fireworks” this summer and turn the Celtics into a playoff team yet again, I’m sure he would welcome Pierce back at a hometown discount. That kind of a turnaround is far from a sure thing for a Boston roster that only won 25 games last season. Pierce also may be looking to play for a team with legitimate playoff aspirations, a scenario that’s unlikely for the Celtics next year. The Boston option is a possibility, but it's not a likely one for Pierce, despite the fact he was wearing a Red Sox cap upon leaving Brooklyn's practice facility on Thursday. 如果皮爾斯決定離開籃網，那麼Celtics就必定會成為他下家的一個考慮。 老皮在三月的時候告訴記者，他有可能考慮回到那個他為之奉獻了15年的地方。 ”為什麼不呢?”皮爾斯說道，“我有可能作為一個球員，或者作為一個教練回歸，誰知 道未來會發生什麼。” 如果皮爾斯回到Celtics，那一定會是一個感人的故事，但是這需要考慮到雙方的意願， Danny anige不是一個感性化的人，上個月在電台接受采訪的時候，Danny anige對皮爾斯 回歸的可能性做出了回應。 “如果價格合適，在合適情況下他可能回歸。 ”安吉談到關於皮爾斯的回歸。 但是消息源談到，Celtics對皮爾斯的興趣並不高，特別是他們正在進行重建這種情況下 。如果安吉想要在休賽季做出一些出人意料的事情，並且讓Celtics重新變成一隻季後賽 球隊，那麼我相信，他會歡迎這個當代隊魂的回歸。 但是，Celtics的陣容這個賽季只幫助他們贏下了25場比賽，而皮爾斯想要尋找的是一隻 能夠在季后賽有所表現的隊伍，下個賽季Celtics似乎並不在這些隊伍的行列裡面。 Boston依舊是皮爾斯的一個選擇，但是可能性並不高即使當皮爾斯離開籃網的訓練中心的 時候帶著波士頓紅襪的帽子。 Los Angeles Clippers/Other Contenders Pierce grew up in Inglewood, California, so a return to his childhood home combined with a reunion with former head coach Doc Rivers will surely be on Pierce’s radar this summer. The Clippers have the championship-level talent that Pierce would crave and a need to upgrade the small forward position. The Clippers would only be able to offer Pierce mid-level money, but a chance to win another ring back home could be an appealing option for the veteran. Other potential contenders (Chicago, Oklahoma City, Indiana) could throw out mid-level money as well for the services of the small forward, but it seems doubtful that Pierce would want to start over in a brand-new city at this stage of his career. 大意 老皮可能去找河流泡茶 衝擊總冠軍 因為老皮老家也在加州 或是去雷霆 公牛 溜馬 衝擊總冠軍 但是它們只能開出迷你中產合約 ------ 結論 1.看KG(續待)PP(續簽籃網) 2.看KG(退休)-->看老皮--->(回賽提)看安吉 3.看KG(退休)-->看老皮--->去LAC,Bulls,Thunder or Pacers 衝擊總冠軍 -- The game isn't over till the clock says zero. ----Paul Pierce --
