What an eight-year ride it's been for Jason Eugene Terry with the Dallas Mavericks. Jason Eugene Terry貢獻給達拉斯小牛多麼美妙的八年啊。 And, dare we say, it's now coming to an end? 而我們敢說Jet與小牛的緣分已盡嗎？ Hours before the coming finality of Game 4 in the first-round sweep to the Oklahoma City Thunder, Terry made a statement that now also seems appropriate for his situation as he stares into the uncertainty of unrestricted free agency for the first time in his 13-year career. 在小牛第一輪第四戰被橫掃之前，Terry對他目前的處境發表聲明，他將在13年生涯中首次成為非限制自由球員。 "Life is not always going to go the way you want it to," Terry said. "And so in that instance you have to make the adjustments and ride it out and see what happens." Terry說："人生不會永遠如你所願，在這種場合下，你得做出調整，渡過這段時間，再看事態怎麼發展。" And that's what he'll do. It's all he can do. He doesn't want to leave the team with which he built a brand name and won a championship, but he will if he must. 這是他的做為，也是所有他能做的。他當然不想離開自己成名並且一起奪冠的球隊，除非他必須離開。 It seems his best chance of returning to the Mavs for a ninth season would, ironically, be a worst-case situation for Dallas, meaning whiffing on Deron Williams in July. If Williams joins his hometown Mavericks on a max deal, then there simply won't be room to squeeze in Terry and a price he'll command. 目前看起來，假設他回到小牛在這裡待上第九個球季，很諷刺地，可能會是對小牛最不利的狀況，這代表了Deron Williams在七月加入了別的球隊。如果蝶龍與家鄉的小牛隊簽下天價合約，那麼小牛當然無法開出讓Jet滿意的合約讓他留下。 No Williams, however, and Dallas will have loads of cap space and a wide-open roster to fill. 不過沒有簽下跌龍的話，小牛就會有很多薪資空間，陣容也會有很多空缺。 Terry will turn 35 before he reports to someone's training camp in October. How much is the Jet, a career 38-percent 3-point shooter (and fourth in league history in 3-pointers made) and one of the game's most fearless fourth-quarter scorers, worth on the open market? How many years is a team willing to go? Terry在加入下個賽季的訓練營時將滿35歲，他的生涯三分球命中率有38%，生涯三分球命中次數排史上第四，他是聯盟當中第四節最勇於出手的得分手，Jet在市場上到底值多少錢？其他球隊會願意開幾年合約給他？ If the Mavs don't bring back the franchise's sixth-leading scorer, they will truly be letting go of Dirk Nowitzki's (mostly) trusted sidekick, the position they've seemingly tried to fill with a superstar for years and will try again this offseason. 如果小牛不簽回隊史總得分排名第六的Terry，他們將會放走Dirk Nowitzki最信任的副手，球隊高層這幾年一直試著補強第二號得分點，這個夏天會是他們的一大考驗。 Terry never made any All-Star teams or All-NBA squads -- only a Sixth Man of the Year trophy to his name -- but for four consecutive seasons and five times in his eight seasons in Dallas, Terry has finished as the Mavs' second-leading scorer. He's poured in 9,953 points wearing a Mavs uniform and another 1,466 in the postseason -- none more important or gratifying than the 27 he threw down the throats of the Miami Heat in Game 6 of the NBA Finals. Terry從來沒有入選過明星賽或是NBA年度陣容當中，他的個人成就只有一次的最佳第六人。不過在他效力小牛的八年當中，有五年他的總得分是全隊第二高(其中包括連續四年)，他為小牛攻下了9953 分，季後賽則為小牛攻下1466分，其中最重要的當然是他在2011年總冠軍戰第六戰為小牛攻下全場最高的27分，幫助小牛打敗熱火。 So if the Mavs are truly prepared to enter the 2012-13 season without the familiar Jet on the runway, they will be losing a piece of the fabric of the most successful era in Mavs history -- and leaving Nowitzki as the last piece standing. 所以如果小牛真的準備好在下個賽季與Jet分道揚鑣，他們將會失去小牛隊史上最輝煌的年代的重要球員，唯一不變的只剩下Dirk一人。 The Countdown goes emotional with No. 5 ... JASON TERRY Pos.: SG Ht./Wt.: 6-foot-2, 185 Experience: 13 years Age: 34 (Sept. 15, 1977) 2011-12 stats: 15.1 ppg (43.0 FG%, 37.8 3FG%), 3.6 apg, 31.7 mpg Contract status: Unrestricted free agent 2011-12 salary: $11.2 million 2012-13 salary: TBD His story: If the Jet is on his way out, he certainly didn't go out quietly. Always a quality interview for his often funny, brash, silly or even ridiculous commentary, Terry spent the season talking about "ctc" as in "cut the check" on his next contract. He talked about being on a job interview every time he stepped on the floor, and he topped it all by saying he'd love to help the hated Miami Heat next season. Once the Mavs were swept out of the playoffs, Terry reiterated statements from early on that management's decision to break up the title team meant they was looking beyond a chance to repeat for a chance to land a big free agent this summer. "Yeah, he (owner Mark Cuban) knows it, the city knows, we all know it as players." 如果Jet不留下來，他絕對不會安安靜靜的離開，他常常在訪問中發表有趣、直接、愚蠢或甚至是荒謬的言論。他這個賽季老是在說 "ctc"，就是"cut the check"，提醒老闆Cuban要為他的合約留下一筆錢。他常常在來到球場時說到效力其他球隊的可能性，最誇張還說過他明年不排除加入他曾經很討厭的熱火。當今年小牛的球季在被橫掃結束之後，他重申了他對於管理階層在本季出的做為的看法，他認為球隊決定拆散冠軍球隊表示已經不在乎衛冕的機會，只希望在這個夏天有機會網羅到自由市場的大魚。"是啊，他(指老闆 Cuban)知道這一點，整個城市都知道，我們球員當然也知道。" His outlook: Little more can be said. Whether he returns to Dallas next season or not, Terry still hopes his No. 31 will one day be raised to the American Airlines Center rafters. 沒什麼好多說的，不管Terry下季會不會回到小牛，他都希望有一天他的31號球衣會被高掛在美國航空中心球場的空中。 (留或不留真的讓人很矛盾啊...) 下集待續 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.112.7.214
