湖記：龜龜KI的交易並非瘋狂想法，但KI仍是比龜龜更好的球員
The Lakers, who missed the playoffs in the 2021-22 season, are trying to find a
way to move off of guard Russell Westbrook to improve their roster for the 2022-
23 season.
錯過了2021-22賽季季後賽的湖人，正試圖找到一種送走後衛龜龜的方法，以改善他們在202
2-23賽季的陣容。
Brooklyn is in a similar situation, as the team is noncommittal to the future of
guard Kyrie Irving heading into the offseason.
籃網也有類似的情況，球隊於休賽季對後衛KI的未來還沒有明確的決定。
Both players have player options on their contracts for the 2022-23 season, and
one Lakers insider believes that there could be some logic to a Westbrook-Irving
swap.
兩名球員在2022-23賽季的合約中都有球員選項，一位湖人記者認為龜龜-KI的交易有一定的
邏輯。
The Athletic’s Bill Oram explained his thinking on a recent appearance on “The
Herd with Colin Cowherd.”
The Athletic的Bill Oram最近在節目上解釋了他對這筆交易的看法。
“I don’t think it’s nuts,” Oram said of a Westbrook-Irving trade. “I don’t
know that it’s going to happen, but from a logical standpoint it makes sense.
From a logical standpoint, the Nets are absolutely sick of the Kyrie Irving expe
rience. The Lakers are sick of the Russell Westbrook experience. That said, the
Nets know they have the better player and the better asset despite all of his id
iosyncrasies.”
湖記：我不認為這是瘋狂的想法。我不知道這是否會發生，但從邏輯角度來看，這是有道理
的。從邏輯的角度來看，籃網絕對已經厭倦了KI，湖人也已經厭倦了龜龜。話雖如此，籃網
知道儘管KI有自己獨特的性格，但KI仍是那個更好的球員，也是更好的資產。
The Nets clearly have the leverage if any deal were to be completed, as Irving i
s a much better player than Westbroo at this point of their respective careers.
如果有任何交易要完成，籃網顯然是更有籌碼的一方，因為現在的KI是一個比龜龜更好的球
員。
In addition, this would be an interesting swap because it would reunite the two
guards with their former teammates. Irving would reunite with LeBron James, who
he played with on the Cleveland Cavaliers, and Westbrook would reunite with Kevi
n Durant.
此外，這將是一個有趣的互換，因為這將使兩個後衛與他們的前隊友重聚。KI將與曾在騎士
並肩作戰的LBJ重聚，而龜龜將與KD重聚。
Westbrook and Durant had a bit of an ugly breakup from the Oklahoma City Thunder
, and that could throw another wrench into any potential Irving-Westbrook swap t
his coming offseason.
龜龜和KD在雷霆的分手有點不愉快，這可能會是這次互換中的另一個障礙。
While Oram thinks the trade makes sense, it seems that there are a lot of hurdle
s that would need to be cleared for it to actually happen between the Lakers and
Nets.
雖然Oram認為這筆交易是有意義的，但似乎要實現交易還有很多障礙需要清除。
