Curry bullish on Atlanta? Center unhappy with lack of contract talk progress By SEKOU SMITH The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Published on: 07/08/05 A Hawks roster that includes both Joe Johnson and Eddy Curry might not be quite as far-fetched as it sounds. 當Hawks的陣容中同時擁有Joe Johnson與Eddy Curry，也許Hawks距離一支完整的球隊已經不遠了。 Not with news that Johnson could receive a maximum contract offer from the Hawks on July 22 and that Curry is willing to depart from his hometown Bulls because contract negotiations with Chicago are moving much slower than he anticipated. 除了提供給Joe Johnson一張頂級合約之外，Curry也因為不滿與Bulls的續約談判進展不如預期，頗有離鄉的意願。 Johnson, a restricted free agent, had a breakout season for the Suns last year but reportedly received a contract offer from the Suns last week that was less than the maximum amount allowed under league rules for free agents. Johnson這位RFA去年在Suns的表現破繭而出，然而據信Suns在上星期對他提出的合約金額並非MAX。 The Arizona Republic reported the Hawks intend to offer Johnson a maximum contract — five years and between $68 million and $72 million. Arizona Republic報導指出Hawks打算提供Johnson一張5年35M-72M的頂級合約。 The Suns can offer about $90 million for six seasons but reportedly made an offer for six years and just $60 million. Suns則能夠提供一張6年約90M的合約，但報導指出他們只提出了6年60M。 But the Suns can match any offer to Johnson, within seven days, since he's a restricted free agent. 但是Suns能夠（也願意）在7天內跟進別隊對Johnson的offer--因為他是RFA。 Curry, also a restricted free agent, has recently resumed daily workouts after his season ended March 30 due to episodes with an irregular heartbeat. Curry也是一位RFA，自從上季在3月30號後發生心律不整問題後，他現在已經恢復了每天的練習。 But he's made little progress in his contract negotiations with the Bulls. 但是與Bulls的續約談判進展非常緩慢。 "They said that once I got cleared, they were going to lock me up [with a new contract], and that was going to be it," Curry told the Chicago Sun-Times . "But that doesn't seem like it's going to happen. It certainly isn't happening right now. It's definitely leaving a sour taste in my mouth. . . . Curry告訴Chicago Sun-Times：「他們說我一但澄清所有疑慮後，將會給我一張新合約，而陷在這件事情也在進展中。但是我們現在似乎觸礁了，現在就續約肯定不會發生，我的感覺不太好。」 "I never wanted to leave Chicago, but it's a strong possibility that could happen from the way things look." Curry：「我從來就不想離開Chicago，但現在看起來很有機會發生。」 The Bulls are reportedly offering an incentive-laden contract to protect themselves in case Curry's irregular heartbeat becomes an issue again. Bulls被報導提供了Curry一張有附帶條件的合約，以保障當Curry的心律不整問題再度發生時，Bulls不會再受傷害。 A team like the Hawks could offer a lucrative deal without those incentives and force the Bulls to match or pay more than they are willing, forcing a sign-and-trade deal that could possibly include Hawks forward Al Harrington. 當然Hawks不會在合約上附帶條件，而且可以逼Bulls花更多的錢去跟進Hawks的offer，亦或是強迫Bulls S&T--Al Harrington應該會包括在內。 But one hurdle in a potential deal for Curry is that he doesn't intend to work out for interested teams, a stipulation most teams are sure request before offering him a contract. 但是要簽下Curry一項潛在的障礙是，Curry不願意去像那些對他有興趣的球隊，證明他的身體狀況。 The Hawks have maintained an organizational gag order on their free-agent plans. But with an estimated $24 million or more of salary cap space to work with, their status on the free-agent market is that of a major player. Hawks目前在FA市場上仍然不願意公開行事，但是以Hawks24M以上的薪資空間而言，他們肯定是FA市場上的主要行為者之一。 Chris Grant leaves Hawks Hawks vice president of basketball operations/assistant general manager Chris Grant has left the organization for the same position in Cleveland. Hawk的副執行長與助理GM--Chris Grant已經離開球團到Cleveland擔任同樣的職務。 Grant spent nine seasons with the Hawks, working as everything from a video intern to director of scouting before becoming an assistant general manager. Grant在Hawks工作了9年，在做到助理GM前，他從一個實習員做到斥侯的主管。 Williams deal near Hawks rookie Marvin Williams could have his multi-year, multi-million dollar contract signed by the time he takes the floor Monday for the start of the Hawks rookie/free agent mini-camp. Hawks的菜鳥Marvin Williams將能夠在星期一到達Hawk所舉辦的菜鳥與FA的迷你訓練營報到到時，得到一張複數年，數百萬元的合約。 Several other first round picks from last month's draft have already signed contracts, including No. 1 overall pick Andrew Bogut, who signed his deal 72 hours after the draft. 一些在第一輪中選的其他新秀，早就拿到了他們的合約，包括選秀狀元Andrew Bogut在中選後72小時之內就簽下合約。 Teams playing in early summer leagues tend to sign their picks before summer league play begins. The Hawks don't start summer league play until July 15 in Salt Lake City, where they'll join Charlotte, Dallas, San Antonio, Seattle and Utah in the Reebok Rocky Mountain Revue. ummer League開打前與新進球員簽約，但是Hawks的RM Revue要到 7月15才在鹽湖城開打（懶惰鬼）--Charlotte，Dallas，San Antonio，Seattle都會參加。 -- 最新消息：Curry要去Atlanta與球團會面囉~ 資料來源 http://www.ajc.com/sports/content/sports/hawks/0705/09hawks.html -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.230.43.118 ※ 編輯: sssfrost 來自: 61.230.43.118 (07/11 15:09)
