[分享] Bobcats' Rod Higgins on trade deadline
文中提到了交易截止日前的狀況~
GM說我們有接到一些詢價且討論都很好
但是我們後來不做交易原因是沒有好的包裹
我們寧願買斷Diaw 900萬合約 也不會想換回爛約 => 單單為了選秀權~
米國球評都說如果不是DH不走了~打亂了籃網布局
不然Diaw那筆交易應該會成行
另外~
湖人跟騎士的那個包裹~
本來是用來換DJA的.........
只是我們不感興趣才轉而與騎士交易@@
GM說了~到了暑假DJ就是RFA
我們可以聽取每隊的報價做評估
米國球評也說了~DJ在選秀會上是個很好用的活棋
有可能可以跟其他球員 (ex. C.Maggete)搭配達到S.Jax一樣換到選秀權效果
米國球迷大部分也認同此作法~
另外今年阿拓賣GW的構想跟去年我們一樣!!!

The Charlotte Bobcats discussed numerous proposals with other NBA teams
leading up to Thursday’s 3 p.m. trade deadline. But in the end, nothing they
heard was worth chipping away at their future salary-cap space.
“The last thing we wanted to do is make a trade just to say we made a trade,
’’ Bobcats president of basketball operations Rod Higgins told the
Observer. “The last thing we want to do is deal away our cap flexibility for
an older player, past his prime, making $8-$9 million’’ a season.
Sitting out the deadline was a departure from the past three years. In
successive years they moved ex-lottery pick Adam Morrison to the Los Angeles
Lakers, acquired Tyrus Thomas from the Chicago Bulls and – most recently –
dealt the last original Bobcat, Gerald Wallace, to the Portland Trail
Blazers.
This year, despite wide-spread discussions involving Boris Diaw and D.J.
Augustin, the Bobcats stood pat. That preserved what could be anywhere from
$5 million to $21 million in salary-cap flexibility next summer and
potentially in the summer of 2013.
Were the Bobcats close to anything?
“I don’t know if I’d classify anything as close,’’ Higgins said. “We
had good conversations and a lot of activity. But most of what happened
(around the league) was late in the game.’’
Diaw and Augustin were both in play for different reasons. Diaw has an
expiring contract with a $9 million salary figure this season. That was
attractive to teams looking to create future cap space. But naturally teams
looking to acquire Diaw wanted to send players with multi-season guarantees
to the Bobcats.
Nothing those teams offered in the way of a draft pick or young prospects was
sufficient to part with cap flexibility. Now, with Diaw playing little for
coach Paul Silas, it might make sense to negotiate a buyout that would allow
Diaw to sign with a playoff team. Spurs guard Tony Parker has said Diaw would
be welcome in San Antonio.
Higgins indicated any buyout discussions would happen in the next few days,
if at all. Diaw would have to be waived by March 23 to be eligible for a
playoff roster.
Point guard Augustin becomes a restricted free agent in July, and he and
rookie Kemba Walker are similar in size and skill set. Sources indicate the
Bobcats spoke with the Blazers, Lakers and Oklahoma City Thunder, among other
teams, about possibly dealing Augustin.
“D.J. Augustin is our starting point guard and we like him a lot,’’
Higgins said. “We tried to extend (his contract) back in December. Now, on
July 1, he’ll be a restricted free agent and that will dictate what happens
next.’’
Along with Augustin, power forward D.J. White will be restricted this season.
That means the Bobcats would have the right to match another team’s written
offer for either one. If Augustin and White choose to play under their
qualifying offers, they would be tied to the Bobcats through the 2012-13
season before becoming unrestricted free agents.
