No contract in the NBA is untradable. Look no farther than the Brooklyn Nets,
who swooped in to take Joe Johnson and his massive contract off the hands of
the Atlanta Hawks. Before that we saw guys like Gilbert Arenas get moved when
it made no sense. As Kevin Garnett has screamed into our television sets, “
Anything is possible.”
在NBA沒有什麼合約是不可以交易的。亞特蘭大老鷹把Joe Johnson交易到布魯克林籃網的
前例殷鑑不遠。在此之前，我們看到像Gilbert Arenas也是毫無道理地就被球隊交易掉。
就像Kevin Garnett在電視廣告裡所說的“Anything is possible(凡事都有可能)”。
That said, some contracts are pretty darn close to impossible to move — and
Deron Williams has one of them.
但是有些合約看起來就是幾乎不可能會被交易，Deron Williams就是其中一個例子。
D-Will has gone from a guy mentioned in the same breath with Chris Paul to a
good, above-average point guard who is vastly overpaid — he has three years,
$63 million left on his contract. Ankle injuries have slowed him down, and he
likely will have another surgery on those this summer.
曾經與Chris Paul馳騁聯盟的那個D-Will已不復在，現在這位聯盟水準之上的控衛已經
被嚴重高估—他還有三年6300萬的合約，腳踝傷勢讓他速度變慢，而且今年夏天他可能
還要動手術。
But after a disappointing playoff run where he could not lead the Nets as was
the plan, they will consider moving him, reports the New York guru that is
Howard Beck of Bleacher Report.
「但是在經過一個令人失望的季後賽表現後，籃網會考慮交易他了。」Bleacher Report的
Howard Beck在報導到這位紐約的領袖這樣說。
There is an alternative, sources say, the Nets will not rule out: They could
look to trade Williams this summer, retool around (Joe) Johnson and (Brook)
Lopez, squeeze one more run out of Pierce and Garnett and hope for the best.
有消息說籃網有一個替選方案，籃網不排除：他們可能會在今年夏天交易D-Will，然後
圍繞Joe Johnson和Brook Lopez重建，當然也不排除也會交易Pierce和Garnett獲得最好
的報償。
It’s hard to say what the Nets might get for a 29-year-old former All-Star
with bad ankles and $63 million left on his contract, but it’s worth
exploring. The Houston Rockets tried to acquire Williams last December, so it
’s not inconceivable that another team desperate for point-guard help might
inquire.
籃網還會不會留住這位腳踝受傷的29歲的前全明星球員真的很難說，不過值得籃網梭哈
一把。去年十二月曾傳出休士頓火箭隊對D-Will有興趣的消息，所以其他對自己隊上控衛
失望的球隊可能會向籃網詢價一下也不無可能。
The problem for the Nets is this — a team might take Williams off your hands
but you’re going to have to give them something they really want in
addition. A sweetener if you will. The Nets don’t have a lot of those to
offer up, they don’t have a first-round pick they could trade until 2020.
There are not players on the roster that will thrill other teams, Mirza
Teletovic and Mason Plumlee are the only names teams might consider.
問題是其他球隊可以幫籃網處理掉D-Will合約，但同樣地，籃網也必須給那些球隊他們
額外的好康。但籃網沒有太多的好康可以提供，他們到2020年以前都沒有首輪簽了。
他們名單上也沒有太多讓其他隊垂涎的球員，或許其他球隊會考慮一下Mirza Teletovic
和Mason Plumlee。
As we told you before, making moves thinking only of the short term is a
trademark of Nets GM Billy King, and owner Mikhail Prokhorov is encouraging
that urge. He wants to win now, money be damned, so spend $190 million on
payroll and taxes. Go collect big names like Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce,
don’t worry about the price.
就像我們之前說過的，炒短線交易是籃網GM Billy King的註冊商標，籃網老闆Mikhail
Prokhorov也鼓勵這種衝動，因為籃網老闆現在就想贏球，即使要花上1.9億的奢侈稅他
也不在乎，去把像Kevin Garnett和Paul Pierce的巨頭給我搞來，錢的事你不用擔心。
Beck gets into all the problems that causes for the Nets, but in the end
their biggest problem is the Deron Williams they got and signed to a max
contract is not the Deron Williams they thought they were getting. If the
Nets are going to turn things around and really contend in the short term,
Williams has to revert to his old form or they have to move him and build in
another direction.
專欄作家Howard Beck分析籃網目前的問題，最終他們最大的問題還是高估了D-Will並和他
簽了一份巨額合約。假如籃網想要扭轉局勢，要嘛期望Deron Williams能恢復他以往身手
，不然就是得交易他然後重建。
Either of those outcomes are long shots.
但這兩種結果最後籃網能變成贏家的機率都很小。

短評或心得：聽說小胖跟籃網高層鬧翻了 要被交易了？
去年火箭想用萬用包換小胖結果被籃網打槍 這次會成功嗎？
