[外電] 湖人和騎士的交易談判已暫停
Talks between the Los Angeles Lakers and Cleveland Cavaliers about a trade
involving Pau Gasol and Andrew Bynum have stalled, sources told ESPN.com.
The deal is not dead, but it is no longer progressing. The Cavs, who have
until Jan. 7 to trade Bynum before his contract becomes guaranteed and loses
its instant value in a trade, are now actively seeking other options.
The major issue, sources said, involves the Lakers' desire to get an
additional asset from the Cavs beyond Bynum's team-friendly contract, which
could save the Lakers more than $20 million in salary and luxury taxes. The
Lakers are interested in also getting a young prospect or a first-round draft
pick as part of the deal. The Cavs have been reluctant to part with either.
To satisfy NBA trade rules, the Cavs would have to add at least one more
player to any trade involving Gasol for Bynum. Gasol is in the last year of a
contract that pays him $19.3 million. Bynum's contract is for $12.25 million
but is only half guaranteed before next week, which is why the Lakers are
interested. By trading for and then waiving Bynum, the Lakers could take
themselves below the luxury-tax threshold for the first time in seven years.
The Lakers, though, remain reluctant to part with Gasol before giving the
team time to recover from a wave of injuries that have derailed its season,
sources said. Jordan Farmar was the latest Laker to go down, tearing his
hamstring and being declared out for a month on Wednesday. Los Angeles
(13-19) has lost six games in a row.
There is some pressure for the Lakers to get out of the luxury tax to help
with future flexibility. If the Lakers remain in the tax this season, going
into the tax in either of the next two seasons would trigger a "repeater tax"
the franchise hopes to avoid. The Lakers are planning to be major free-agent
players the next two summers.
Gasol, no stranger to trade rumors, addressed the latest one after the
Lakers' practice Thursday.
"I'm more accustomed to them and I deal with them better than I did at first,
when it started," he said. "But it's just a reality, and I just got to stay
cool and keep my mind on the game as much as I can."
He also said he wants to remain in Los Angeles.
"It's my home, it's my team," Gasol said. "It's the team that I've been
through so much with, and I'm not the type of guy that likes to jump ship
because everything is not going right right now. So, I'm a loyal guy. I'd
like to continue to be here and fight with the guys that are here and once we
get bodies back, everything will be better. But right now, I'd like to
continue to stay here. This is my team, this is my city."
The Cavs (10-21), meanwhile, have also lost six in a row, but they are
maintaining hope of making the playoffs for the first time in four years.
In 2012, the Lakers and Cavs engaged in protracted talks for weeks before
making a deal just hours before the trade deadline that sent Ramon Sessions
to Los Angeles for Luke Walton and a first-round draft pick.
That was also a money-based deal, as shedding Walton's contract saved the
Lakers in excess of $15 million in salary and luxury taxes. It appears
possible these talks could go down to the wire next week as well.
ESPN記者Brian Windhorst和Ramona Shelburne報導,湖人和騎士關於Andrew Bynum與
Pau Gasol的交易談判已經暫停。
ESPN報導稱,儘管雙方的交易談判還未徹底破裂,但也不會取得任何進展,騎士目前正在
尋找其他選擇。
ESPN援引消息來源爆料稱,雙方的分歧在於:在這筆關於Bynum的交易中,湖人不僅想利用
他的合約完成對薪資空間的清理,還想得到額外的回報。湖人有意得到一位有潛力的年輕
球員,或者一個未來的首輪選秀權,但遭到了騎士的拒絕。
Gasol正處於目前合約的最後一年,年薪高達1930萬美元,而Bynum的合約即便完全保障
也只有1250萬,根據NBA的等價原則,騎士需要在這筆交易中增加其他球員,才能匹配交易
。
ESPN的消息來源表示,湖人目前也不願意放棄Gasol,目前湖人遭遇傷病潮,他們希望給
球隊時間以恢復。
目前,湖人遭遇六連敗,球隊陣容更是捉襟見肘。Jodan Farmar剛剛腿部肌肉撕裂,需要
休息至少一個月。
騎士也正遭遇了六連敗,球隊目前的戰績是10勝21負,但他們仍未放棄四年來首次殺入季
後賽的希望。
