Rockets will target Nene in free agency,
and if they don’t get him, will consider a full-blown reconstruction.

自翻
前面歌功頌德, 有興趣的人自行看原文.
從正事開始翻.
The Rockets have some hard decisions to make.
They’re going all out for free-agent center Nene.
He’s 29 years old and coming off a season in which he averaged 14.5 points and 7.0 rebounds per game.
Nene is 6-11, 250 pounds,
and Morey believes putting him in a lineup with Kyle Lowry and Kevin Martin
would give the Rockets three to build around.
火箭隊需要做些決定. 他們即將不計代價去爭取Nene.
平均14.5分, 7.0籃板, 29歲, 六呎十一, 250磅.
Morey希望以他與Martin還有Lowry來做為火箭隊未來的核心三巨頭.
If the Morey doesn’t get him, they could again be fighting for the eighth seed,
far from being a team capable of winning in the playoffs.
They’d be entertaining and all that,
but they wouldn’t be where Leslie Alexander wants them to be.
如果Morey搶不到Nene, 那我們就像之前那樣年年為了季後賽門票而拼鬥,
要闖進第二輪之後的目標更是遙遠.
雖然這支鬥志十足的球隊很令人喜愛, 但是恐怕這並非老闆Alexander的期望.
That’s where the tough decision comes in.
If they can’t land an impact player in free agency,
is it time to rebuild and position themselves for Anthony Davis or Andre Drummond or another high draft pick next summer?
有些困難的決定必須要做.
如果他們簽不到重量級的球員, 或許這是個徹底重建的好時機?
例如為了Anthony Davis與Andre Drummond,或是未來的高順位球員做準備?
Alexander has resisted rebuilding,
instead urging Morey to keep adding and to keep the Rockets as competitive as possible.
Morey has done a very good job acquiring talent, but not Kobe Bryant-type talent.
As the last 2-3 years have played out,
the Rockets have become more and more convinced that the draft is the best way to acquire those guys.
Alexander並不願意重建.
他要求Morey補強現有的陣容.
Morey其實已經搞來了一些不錯的球員, 但始終沒有Kobe那種明星級的人物.
經過這兩三年看來, 休士頓越來越相信高順位選秀的重要性.
At least we won’t have to wait long for answers.
Free agency is expected to begin around December 9, with the regular season beginning December 25.
This is a new chapter for the Rockets, with Kevin McHale (94 games) taking over for Rick Adelman (1,561 games).
This is also the first off-season Morey hasn’t been limited by the contracts of either T-Mac, Yao or both.
至少我們不必等太久.
自由球員的簽約從12/9揭開序幕, 而球季會在12/25開始.
這對火箭來說是一個全新的篇章. 有了新教頭McHale,
這也是Morey首次沒有被MM的大合約綁住手腳的賽季.
No matter how it plays out,
we’re finally going to see the best athletes on earth doing their thing.
I can’t wait.
不管事情如何發展, 我們還是能看到這群很棒的運動員做他們擅長的事情. 我等不及了.
