外國某專欄作家的文章 --Even if they don't get Kobe, Suns' future still bright-- First Jason Kidd. Then Stephon Marbury. Who can blame the folks in Phoenix if they're starting to think management has something against All-Star point guards -- if not competing for an NBA title any day soon? 首先是Kidd，然後是小馬。如果有開始想到管理階層已經對上述全明星控球後衛有不 同的想法,誰能說太陽隊的這些動作是錯的?如果不是太陽對兩位明星後衛有不同以往 的看法,那就是說太陽隊在不久的未來可以爭取總冠軍囉? But fear not, Suns fans. The Colangelos' decision to run up the white flag this season doesn't mean all is lost. There is still hope a Phoenix could rise from the ashes -- and no, we're not talking about Kobe Bryant. 可是恐怕並非如此,太陽的球迷們。老柯決定放棄這球季的決定並不意味著失去一切. 太陽隊仍有著自遺跡中升起的希望--而且不是,我們不是討論KB。 Let's face it, Kobe is a longshot for the Suns. Phoenix can clear only some $7 million in cap space; that's not likely to pry Kobe from bigger money with the Nuggets, Clippers or Spurs. And that's assuming he beats the rap in Colorado and decides to leave the Lakers at season's end. 讓我們面對這些,KB對太陽對而言是射程外。太陽隊只能空出約700萬的空間,而這看起 來不像能從金塊、快艇或馬刺所提供的更多的錢中把KB挖過來。而這還只是假設KB能擺 脫刑罰且決定季末離開胡人的情形。 But even if Kobe doesn't come, the Suns still have hope. Milos Vujanic is by all accounts a terrific point guard prospect, and he's saying he might be willing to leave his European club and come here next season. Maciej Lampe is big. Suns coach Mike D'Antoni can't wait to get him on the floor. 但是就算KB沒來，太陽隊還是有希望。根據所有的觀察分析指出，Vujanic是一個可怕 的控球後衛潛力新秀，而且他也表示他下一個球季可能要求離開他歐洲俱樂部母隊而來 到這裡。Lampe是大物等級。太陽隊現任總教練是迫不及待的希望能讓他上場。 On Monday, I watched in person at the United Center as Brazilian rookie point guard Leandro Barbosa torched the Bulls for 27 points and four assists. The kid is raw, but he's an athlete and he looks like he can shoot. Clearly, Phoenix has some promising young talent to go with Amare Stoudemire and Shawn Marion. 星期一時，作者個人親眼見證了菜鳥巴西小手套對公牛拿下27分4助攻。這小子還很生 嫩，但是他運動力好，而且看起來籃子滿準的。顯然太陽有許多前景可期的年輕新秀 跟隨在阿媽和Marion身邊。 Meanwhile, even if Kobe turns them down, the Suns can still make a run at other decent free agents like Steve Nash, Brent Barry, Vlade Divac or Quentin Richardson. 在這些要素中，就算KB沒來太陽，太陽還是可以爭取其他不錯的自由球員如Nash、 Brent Barry、老狄或是Quentin Richardson之流。 We're not saying the Suns were smart to give up a stud like Marbury. But given the club's financial constraints, it might have been necessary. In any event, at least they've set themselves up for the future. Plus, they've still got Amare. 我們不是說太陽隊放棄像Mabury這樣的種馬是聰明的。但是放棄球隊財政上的負擔 也許確有其必要性。不論如何至少太陽隊已經為球隊的未來做好準備。另外， 太陽隊還有阿媽。 (多少加了點自己的話，有錯誤還請包涵) --
