http://myurl.com.tw/n58f Pacers take another look at options The NBA's negotiating period came and went without the Indiana Pacers making much of a splash. A lack of salary cap space kept the Pacers from being significant players through the first part of the free agency period. 沒錢，導致在第一階段的自由球員時段靜悄悄。 "We didn't have a draft pick and we didn't have room under the salary cap to do much," Pacers CEO Donnie Walsh said. Walsh說沒選秀也沒錢。 "Things should get interesting now that teams can sign their free agents. We're not done making moves. There are other options besides signing free agents. There's also trades, which is something we'll look at." Tuesday, the league released the salary cap ($55.6 million) and luxury tax threshold ($67.9 million) for next season -- the official signal that teams could begin signing free agents Wednesday. The Pacers, who will be over the cap, have no intention of going over the luxury tax threshold, Walsh said. Any team exceeding $67.9 million is required to pay a dollar "tax" for each dollar it goes over. 不想付豪華稅。 The Pacers signed Kareem Rush and Stephen Graham to guaranteed contracts and gave Andre Owens a partially guaranteed deal last week. All three are taking part on the summer league team in Orlando, Fla. 簽下Rush等三小福，同時都在夏季聯盟打拼。 The Pacers are searching for help at point guard. 尋找解決PG的洞。 Mark Bartelstein, the agent for free agent Mo Williams, the best point guard still available as a free agent, said he has "had quite a few conversations" with the Pacers since the start of free agency. 有跟Mo Williams的經紀人初步談論。 Miami and Milwaukee have reportedly been the frontrunners for Williams, who averaged a career high in points, assists and rebounds with the Bucks last season. But Bartelstein said, "Mo is still unsigned and it's an open market for him." Mo Williams還沒有花落Miami家。 The Pacers would have to do a sign-and-trade deal with the Bucks unless Williams is willing to sign for the midlevel exception of $5.35 million. 先簽後換，或者Mo Williams願意簽下中產。 The Pacers have also had conversations with the agents for Chucky Atkins, Jason Hart and Keith McLeod. They also wouldn't mind adding another frontcourt player. Free agent center Jamaal Magloire is a possibility. Restricted free agent forward Maceo Baston, who played sparingly last season with the Pacers, signed a two-year offer sheet with the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday, reportedly for $3.78 million. The Pacers have seven days to match the offer sheet. 同時有跟Chucky Atkins、Jason Hart、Keith McLeod有接觸， 也不介意增加新的前場球員。明星中鋒大貓也許可以談談。 受限制的自由球員Baston跟暴龍簽約了，2年/3.78M，溜馬有7天可以去考慮是否跟進。 (我寧願要Baston，大貓就不必了!) "We will talk about it and decide what we want to do," Walsh said. "We have seven days to decide what direction we want to go." 7天後見真章。 分析：如果要拿Mo Williams，那絕對是先簽後換，我們的好籌碼有- 佛爺? Ike? 拿小鄧或莫非去換到的話，年度最佳GM獎肯定拿得到!! -- 只需要認識我的文字 http://www.wretch.cc/blog/indypacers --
