看到有人在推文提到，能不能讓三巨頭修改合約，自動降薪之類的。 當然因為有很多尼克迷早在季後賽之前就擔心著未來XD 所以Alan Hahn在 Knicks fix裡就有特別說到，(我倒是印象我有看過更詳細的，但是忘記在哪了...) RESTRUCTURE CONJECTURE So many of you have asked about the possibility of the team's highest-paid players, Melo ($20.4 million in 2012-13) and Amar'e ($19.9 million) restructuring their respective contracts to open up some salary cap space so the Knicks can go after another free agent. The fact is the new collective bargaining agreement does include a restructuring provision. But the rule is written in such a way that neither the players, nor the team, are eligible to do it. It's really an inane provision in the agreement when you consider the restrictions. For starters, a team has to already be under the salary cap for restructuring to be permitted. And after that, the player has to be three years into his current contract. 要讓先發球員重寫合約，球隊本身就要先在薪資帽之下，然後球員的合約又得先滿三年。 You can thank both the NBA and the players union for this. The union did not want a rule that would create public pressure for a player to restructure to help a team that has made poor contract decisions and needed help. The NBA did not want to see players get monster contracts only to immediately restructure to create room for more monster contracts. 會這樣寫的立意點是，球員方不希望會有(像尼克現在的)公眾壓力要求球員自動降薪，而 因此損失。而聯盟方不希望已經有大約的球員，透過這種方式幫助球隊簽下其他大約。 So forget restructuring as a means to alleviate cap issues for the Knicks or open up room to make a play for another free agent. The Miami Heat's Big Three had it right when they each agreed to take less than the maximum in order to fit each other and still field a decent team around them. Even then, that roster is extremely shallow, so it puts even more emphasis on good drafting and waiver pick ups. 熱火三巨頭一剛開始就做了對的決定，各自都少拿一些。幫助球隊不僅能簽他們三個， 也可以簽一些功能性球員。但即使是這樣，他們的陣容還是不甚充實。所以這就是為什麼 選秀跟撿球員這麼重要了。 ------------------------------------------------- 心得: 個人造業個人擔啊... --
