莫雷與新賽季季票購買者的30分鐘交流筆錄
http://bbs.hupu.com/5699294.html
=============================================================================
I recently purchased some season tickets for next season and was invited to
a luncheon at Toyota Center where Morey talked for about 30 minutes.
To be honest, he didn't share much info at all but I'm sure some of you
are like me and will take any Rockets news you can get at this time.
我最近買了一些下賽季的季票,
並且被邀請到豐田中心的午餐會上跟莫雷交流了大約30分鐘。
坦白講,整個過程中他並沒有分享太多的訊息,
但我相信某些球迷也會像我這樣珍惜此次機會以吸取更多的新聞。
Daryl Morey:
Most of the team will be back next year.
We were the youngest team in the league.
Just by adding one year under their belt,
teams like ours will add 4 to 5 wins.
So where we want to be trying to get to next year is that 50 win range.
If we can add one of these significant free agents we feel like that
could potentially put us in the championship contention.
The models out there that we are similar to that we are trying to accomplish
are OKC which was similar to us, similar age, similar to us in everything.
Three years ago they lost 4-2 to the top seed just like us and then they
progressed very well from there.
The other team that has really done things the right way is Miami.
First when they only had Wade, who we think is equivilant talent to Harden
at a similar age, they planned their cap really well like what we are doing
right now and they were able to add Shaq.
Then they were very careful with their cap again when they added the players
they added this time(Lebron & Bosh obviously).
So that's sort of the plan, to go after some of the bigger free agents this year
and if we don't get them then carefully manage the cap to get us to the
50 win range with most of the players we have now and keep our flexibility.
We feel we took a big leap forward this season but we still feel we need to
take another big leap forward whether that is through trade or free agency.
莫雷:
明年所有的球隊都會回到同個起跑點。而我們是聯盟中最年輕的隊伍。
靠這過去一年的經驗值,像我們這樣的球隊會再多添得4~5場的勝利。
所以明年我們的目標是至少50勝。
如果我們能再增加一條自由市場上的大魚,就我們自己的感覺而言,
我們將會變成冠軍的潛在競爭者之一。
我們正在努力朝雷霆隊的方向前進,視為模板。
有著類似的平均年齡,其它方面也都很類似。
3年前,他們一樣也是2比4輸給了西部第一種子,至那時起逐步地進步與提升。
另外一支也走在正確的方向的球隊是熱火。
一開始的時候,他們只有一個就我們感覺跟Harden天賦高度類似也年齡相仿的Wade,
然後他們就像我們正在做的一樣,充分地利用他們的薪金空間,
去網羅他們的大個子—SHAQ。
而他們又繼續非常小心地處理他們的薪資空間,並又網羅了其他球員。
(可能意指: LeBron James & Chris Bosh。)
所以那大概就是我們的計劃:去釣更大的魚,如果釣不到他們,
那麼我們就必須小心地處理我們的薪資空間,以便依靠現有的球員員爭取到50勝之外,
還要能夠保持薪資空間的靈活性。
我們本季有如已經往前邁進了一大步,但我們依然仍需要再往前邁進了一大步。
無論是透過交易,還是去網羅自由市場上的大魚。
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Disclaimer: I'm taking some liberties with my summary of the Q&A to save time)
免責聲明: 我有權利用我自己的語言來簡化問答過程以便節省時間。
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: The eastern conference is much easier than the western conference and
how does that get evened out?
東區分組球隊比起西區分組球隊來的更容易應付,要怎樣才能夠取得平衡呢?
A: It's not changing.
Really you have to look at the owners and the western conference has better
owners for the most part so the teams are better.
We just have to keep fighting.
Our goal is to win the title and even though our path will be harder
it's still the same goal. It is what it is.
這是不會改變的。
你真的必須看看出錢的人是誰,西區的老闆大多比東區的老闆來的更好,
所以他們的隊伍也會更好些。
我們只能繼續戰鬥。我們的目標就是奪取總冠軍!即使那道路更難走。
但那是不變的目標,而事實就是如此。
Q: You are known for being a different type of GM but who are the people you
modelled you management style after?
你是球隊總管界裡著名的異類,而誰又是你學習效法的模板呢?
A: Primarily I did a lot of reading.
Probably reading Bill James and his ideas of how to build a team before
he was hired by the Red Sox.
Danny Ainge was a forward thinking, smart ,former player that I took a
lot from. And then Carol Dawson for one year.
The owner Les Alexander is the unsung hero that does a lot
behind the scenes. He consistently takes gambles on us
so we can accomplish big things.
首先,我必須說我做了很多功課。
特別是閱讀紅襪隊經理Bill James,關於他如何建立一支球隊的理念。
Danny Ainge是個具有前衛思考、聰明的前NBA職業球員,我也從他身上學習到很多。
然後我還有與Carol Dawson共事一年並且向他學習。
而老闆Les Alexander則是個在幕後做了很多事的無名英雄。
他持續地在我們身上押注,所以我們才能有一番成就。
Q: Dwight Howard?
A: I can't answer that. Let's just say we are going after 2 of the biggest
free agents(obviously Dwight & CP3) and not being as agressive with the
others.
關於這點我無可奉告。
我只能說我們在追求著市場上其中兩條最大的魚(顯然是Howard和CP3)
但對於其他人選,我們就不那麼積極了。
Q: Could it be a package deal?
會不會有有交易包裹呢?
A: There are some sort of very unlikely scenarios where that could happen.
But it's very unlikey because like 20 things would have to align for that
to happen. It would be very interesting but I have to live in the world of
getting things done and that is very unlikely to get done.
是有一些類似像這樣,但看似不太可行的方案。
因為那就像必須同時完成其他20個條件去促成它發生。
如果真的發生了,那會是非常有趣的。
但我必須活在殘酷地現實生活中,而現實上,那是非常不可能去完成的。
Q: Do you feel this team is one player or one draft pick away from
being a championship contender?
你覺得這支球隊,離爭冠是否只有一個球員或一個選秀簽的距離?
A: Every team is one piece away and his name is LeBron.
But if it were one of the 2 free agents that I can't name it would
be significant.
Draft picks are unlikely bring help to us unless maybe it's a
rotation player but hopefully we won't have good picks.
We have to do like the Spurs who get guys like Gary Neal or players
like that. We need 1 more all star level player.
The likliest ways of that happening are first free agency,
then current player improvement, and least likely is through our draft pick.
每支球隊都只缺一個人,而那個人叫LeBron。
但如果是那2條我無可奉告的大魚之中的一條,那顯然是大有可能的。
選秀權很難立即幫助我們提升,除非那是一個可以立即進入輪換的即戰力球員,
但希望我們不會成績爛到去取得樂透簽。
我們必須向馬刺學習,去得到像Gary Neal(落選新秀)或類似他這樣的球員。
我們需要另一名全明星等級的球員。
而最有可能去獲得明星級球員的辦法,首先是自由市場,其次是等現有球員的成長,
機會最小的就是透過我們的選秀權。
Q: Thoughts on Thomas Robinson?
對於T-ROB的看法
A: He is actually here today(at the Toyota Center) working out.
We have high hopes for him. We normally wouldn't have the opportunity
to get a guy that was 5th in the draft and we are still high on him.
He came in a tough spot of the season.
This year we could have Dmo, Jones, TRob, Greg Smith, and potential
the Turkish player all fight it out to see who's best.
其實他今天有在這裡(豐田中心內)訓練。我們對他期望很高。
一般情況我們是沒有機會得到一個第5號順位的新秀的,
我們在他身上依舊抱有很高的期待。
他在賽季中期加入球隊,這對他來說有點困難。
今年我們有Dmo, Jones, TRob, Greg Smith,和潛在的土耳其球員去競爭去較勁,
往後再讓我們看看誰是最好的。
Q: Will F.Garcia be back?
A: We had to be careful with the cap so we had to let him go.
Later on in free agency we would like to bring him back
but it takes 2 sides to agree.
我們必須小心地處理我們的空間問題,所以,他必須離開。
但過些時候,我們願意在自由市場將他簽回來,但也要得到他的同意才行。
Q: What's plan B if you can't get Dwight or CP3?
當得不到HOWARD或CP3的配套措施
A: We would like to keep our flexibility and be open to other trades.
By the way, I want you all to know it's safe to buy Harden jerseys or
most all of our jerseys even though that has not been the case in the
last few years. But our goal is to go for the big dogs in free agency
and then be smart if that doesn't work to keep flexibility.
我們寧可保持我們空間的靈活性,然後尋求其它的交易。
順便一提,我想你們都清楚買哈登的球衣最保險,又或者選擇那些年我們追過的球衣,
即便過去幾年的情況有所不同。
但我們的目標是去釣大魚,即使釣不到,我們也會保持空間的靈活性。
Q: With guys like Aldridge and Love being free agents the following summer
is there any reluctance to spend this summer?
隨著像Aldridge和Love在明夏將成為自由球員,
妳們是否會因此不願意在今夏浪費薪資空間?
A: Well that is an option. However, both of the guys you mentioned are
not free agents the following year but that doesn't mean they won't
come available because Harden wasn't a free agent either.
Anyways, it's so hard to get an elite player so we can't pass up
a big free agent in hopes of someone in another year.
We have Harden all the way til he is 28 years old and we don't want
to waste his prime. Look at the Blazers they were set up with Roy,
Aldridge, and Oden so we don't want to take anything for granted.
好,那也是個選擇。無論如何,你介紹的這兩個傢伙明年都不是自由球員,
但那也並不意味著我們就得不到他們,因為哈登也不曾是個自由球員。
不管怎樣,得到一名頂級球星是很難的,所以我們不能輕易忽視來年的大魚。
哈登會伴隨我們一起走到28歲,我們可不想浪費他的巔峰期。
你看看拓荒者隊,過去他們把基石建立在Roy,Aldridge和Oden等人身上,
所以我們不想把話說得太死。
Q: What is team's biggest term to improve?
球隊最需要改善的最大問題點?
A: We don't like locking into a position because that gets you in trouble.
The biggest need is an all star regardless of position except for
SG where we have Harden.
But our weakest spot is obviously PF but we don't want to bring in
an average guy that stunts the growth of the young guys and hurts
our flexibility.
我們不想限制會去得到在球場哪一個位置上的球員,因為那會帶來麻煩。
無論哪個位置,只要不是坐擁哈登的得分後衛,只要是全明星的,能來就來。
但我們最弱的位置顯然就是大前鋒,但我們不想帶來一個平庸的傢伙,
那遏制了我們的成長,並且傷害了我們的薪資空間。
Q: What do you think of how Patrick Beverly took over for Lin?
對於Patrick Beverly取代Lin的想法?
A: Beverly played very well. I hate how Lin's season ended with the muscle pull.
Lin had an unbelievable season. Unfortunately most people only remember the
beginning and the end. At the start of the season jeremy struggled coming back
from knee injury and ended with the chest injury
but we are happy with how he played.
Harden won the most games for Rockets, then Asik, and then Jeremy and CP were
tied for third. So Patrick is going to be a nice rotation player for us at least
the next 3 years with a very high ceiling. But about Jeremy, not to be defensive,
but we were not expecting him to have 30 points a game 10 assists like he
did in New York so we are happy with how he played.
Beverly是打得相當不錯。我也討厭Lin的以肌肉拉傷結束球季。
但Lin已經表現出令人難以置信的一個賽季,不幸的是絕大多數的人只記住了開頭和結尾。
賽季初Lin的掙扎全因膝蓋手術的困擾,而他的賽季又以胸肌拉傷結束,
但我們對他的表現感到滿意。
Harden替火箭贏得了最多的比賽,然後是Asik,再來就是平分秋色的Lin和CP。
所以我說潛力非常高的Beverly將會是我們未來三年內的一個很棒的輪換球員。
但關於LIN,並非為其辯護,但我們從未期望他能給予我們單場30分10次助攻的表現
——就像他在紐約時那樣,所以我們對他的表現感到滿意。
Q: Are other GMs afraid to deal with the Rockets?
其他球隊的總管們,是不是怕了跟火箭交易?
A: No. Fortunetly, the egos in the NBA are really big so they are all
really confident in what they do and they should be since most
have accomplished more than the Rockets.
不。幸虧NBA裡面,人人都自信滿滿,
所以他們對自己的所作所為都真的很自信,
而且他們也應該相信自我,因為他們都比火箭收穫得多。
Q: How are you using the SportsView data that collects data on
player movement on the court?
你是如何使用SportsView的數據庫,去蒐集場上球員的表現?
A: We have overhead cameras along with 10 to 12 others teams.
It's a lot of data and it can be used to analyze a lot of different
things but we'd like to keep that pretty quiet. Everything you can think
of we can track so it is a great advantage.
我們在10~12支其它的隊伍球場上設置了各種攝錄器材。
那是一大堆的數據呀,那可以用來分析不少的東西,但那是商業機密。
所有你能想像得到的東西我們都可以追蹤與研究,所以那是個很大的優勢。
Q: How attractive is Houston to free agents?
休城對自由球員的吸引力?
A: I always thought Houston was a great destination.
Between the state income tax, our presence in China,
and our players are guys other players want to play with.
You could argue that only 1 to 4 destinations in the NBA
are argueably better.
我總認為休城是一個理想的目的地。
這在於州稅、我們在中國的影響力、以及我們這些球員之間良好的團隊氛圍。
NBA中只有1到4個地方比休城還要理想。
Q: Thoughts on Royce White?
對小白的看法?
A: We are hopefully but he is dealing with a lot issues
off the court. It was nice to see him on the court
during the 2nd half of season.
我們對他還有希望,但他在場下的麻煩實在太多了。
在下半季能看到他回來打球實在太棒了。
Q: What are long term plans for Chandler Parsons?
關於CP的長期計畫打算?
A: (sarcastically) It's shocking that the first female that asks a
question asks me about Chandler. haha. But he is our starting 3 and
he is critical to our future.
I would extend his contract now if they would let me but the NBA rules
say I can't. He has at least 2 more years here and hopefully many more.
(語帶諷刺地)太意外了,第一個問我問題的女生問的竟然是關於CP的問題!
哈哈!但他是我們的先發3號位球員,
他對於我們的未來很關鍵。如果我可以延長他的合同,我現在就想這麼幹,
但NBA的規定是要我再等一等。他至少還有2年會留在這,希望會比這更久。
Q: Is Sergio Llull going to come over?
Sergio Llull會加入球隊?
A:It was great that Les Alexander gave us money to buy 2nd round pick
a few years back to get him. Now the rules have changed so teams
can't do that as much. He is #1 guard in Spain.
Was MVP in one of the Euro cups recently.
He is for sure an NBA ready guy. He won't come over this offseason
but maybe the following one as his buyout gets lower.
Now with Lin and Beverly it would be unlikely he'd play right now anyway.
It's kind of admirable, he really wants to win a title in Europe and
he was close this year. Before he comes over, he sort of wants to
win big for Real Madrid's team because they brought him along this far
in his career.
慷慨的老闆幾年前給我們錢去買了選中他的二輪簽。
但現在規矩改了,所以球隊無法再這麼幹。
而他是西班牙的第一後衛,是近期其中一屆歐洲杯的MVP。
他肯定能立即適應NBA,並且是即戰力。
這個休賽期他不會來,但也許下一次當他的買斷價格降低後,我們會考慮。
當下我們有LIN又有PB,所以他現在來這打球的機會不大。
他值得我們尊敬,他真的想在歐洲奪一次冠軍,他今年幾乎就做到了。
在他到來之前,他大概想替皇馬奪得一堆的榮譽,
因為是皇馬把他的職業生涯帶到如此高的地步的。
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I think Daryl didn't say anything that he wouldn't mind all of us
knowing so I feel okay sharing this with you all.
Again, there is no breaking news in here but it took a long time to
type it up so hope you guys enjoy reading it.
後記:我想莫雷並沒有真的說些什麼,所以他不會介意我跟大家分享這些。
再聲明,這裡頭沒有什麼爆炸性的資訊,
但這花了我很長時間去整理與輸入,希望大夥享受閱讀。
