For many, even after his out-of-this-world performance in the 2011 postseason, Jason Kidd would not be a consideration to bring back next season. After all, he'll turn 40 in March and he's coming off a season in which he struggled through three injuries, missed 18 of 66 games and finished with the worst statistics of his career. 對於很多人來說，儘管Jason Kidd在2011年季後賽打出了不可思議的成績，他們還是不希望Kidd明年回到小牛。畢竟Kidd將在明年三月滿40歲，今年又受了三次傷，在66場比賽中缺賽18場，打出來的成績也是生涯最差的。 In fact, there will be some of you who can't believe Kidd wasn't on this list a week ago. 事實上，有些讀者不敢相信為什麼Kidd不在上禮拜的名單當中。 (指#10~#6) Everyone by now should know that Kidd's value is not measured by statistics alone. And in regards to next season, his value can only be measured in Dirk Nowitzki's happiness. Remember, Nowitzki is the one that really pushed for the 2008 trade for Kidd, persevered with Kidd through the rough times when it didn't look like a championship was in the stars and then ultimately won a title with Kidd -- a long-awaited first for both. 大家都應該知道Kidd價值不是數據能顯現的，在下一個球季，他的價值還包括了讓Dirk Nowitzki高興。Dirk在2008年很支持球隊交易來Kidd，他與Kidd都被背負著無冕王的稱號，直到不屈不撓的兩人終於贏來了期待已久的冠軍戒。 And now Nowitzki wants him back. Nowitzki believes Kidd can still play the game at a high level and make offense easier for the rest of the team, as Nowitzki has often said. But there's another variable at work here. Nowitzki, one might surmise, wants Kidd back to help ease the transition with the possibility of a large-scale roster revamp on the way. And that revamp could possibly include the club's future point guard, whether it's Kidd's friend Deron Williams or someone else. 而現在Dirk希望他歸隊，他相信Kidd還是能在比賽中打出高水準，並且讓進攻變的更簡單，這是Dirk常常說的。不過還有一個變數存在，有人猜測，Dirk想要Kidd歸隊是因為明年隊上可能會有一堆球員的變動，Kidd在能減輕適應的麻煩。不過這個變動也可能包括球隊未來的先發控位人選，可能是Kidd的朋友Deron Williams或其他人。 Nowitzki needs another familiar face, another familiar voice, a veteran, old-school, respected presence to set the ground rules and help bring a new cast of players together as quickly as possible. Kidd, loved by all in the NBA, would be integral in getting that done. Dirk需要一位熟悉的面孔、熟悉的聲音、一個老將與受到尊敬的人來幫忙訂下規矩並很快的把新隊員團結起來。做為在聯盟中受到愛戴的球員，Kidd會是這件差事很好的人選。 Just listen to Nowitzki talk about his pal: "I’d love to have him back," Nowitzki said. "I was very fortunate in my career to play with two of the best passing point guards there ever were with Nashie (Steve Nash) and him. He’s been great. He's been a warrior, just one of probably the fiercest competitors I’ve ever been around. That’s why he was able to stick around a long time, because he still has it. He can make big shots, he can compete on defense, he doesn’t care about stats and he’s been a great friend off the floor, too; great guy, Hall of Fame player. We wish to have him back, but if he decides, hey, there’s a good team I can come off the bench and give them something and he leaves, then I can’t be mad at him." 聽聽Dirk的說法吧："我很希望他回來，我很幸運在生涯中搭配過兩位聯盟中最會傳球的控球後衛，Nash與Kidd。他很棒，他是位勇者，他可能是我遇過最好鬥的競爭者。這就是他為什麼能在聯盟待那麼久，因為他還做得到，他能投進關鍵球，能拼命防守，他不在乎數據，在球場上是個好隊友，是個很棒的傢伙，未來名人堂的成員。我們希望他能留下，但如果他決定能去其他球隊，從板凳出發並且給他們一些幫助，我也不會怪他。" But would Dirk be mad if the Mavs didn't go the extra mile to re-sign Kidd if dollars gap isn't ridiculously wide? This will be interesting. 但如果小牛是因為薪資空間不夠，所以沒留下Kidd，Dirk會怪高層嗎？這會很有趣。 The Countdown roars along at No. 3 ... JASON KIDD Pos.: PG Ht./Wt.: 6-foot-4, 210 Experience: 18 years Age: 39 (March 23, 1973) 2011-12 stats: 6.2 ppg, 5.5 apg, 4.1 rpg, 48 G Contract status: Unrestricted free agent 2011-12 salary: $10.1 million 2012-13 salary: TBD His story: A decade ago Kidd guided the Nets to back-to-back NBA Finals appearances, proving that the step-child franchise can win in the shadow of the Big Apple. And that was back when the shadow extended to the Jersey swamps and didn't have a Russian billionaire owner promising to pay whatever it takes to field a championship club. The question is whether J-Kidd is showering any advice on the younger Williams, like how great it might be to revive that franchise in a beautiful new building in Brooklyn. Or perhaps Kidd is telling Williams how great Mark Cuban and Donnie Nelson treat their players and how they'll always give the franchise a chance to compete no matter how difficult it appears (and this is one of those times). Kidd has made no secret that he would happily accept a backup role to Williams and very few others -- here or even possibly up there. Kidd has said he'd like to return to Dallas, while at the same time leaving the door for change wide open. 十年前，Kidd帶領籃網連續兩年打進總冠軍戰，證明了儘管籃網活在尼克的陰影之下，還是可以打出佳績。現在又有一位俄羅斯富豪買下了籃網隊，承諾會不惜資本把籃網打造成冠軍隊。問題是Kidd有沒有給年輕的蝶龍任何建議呢，例如說在布魯克林美麗的新球場裡為崛起的強權效力是多麼美妙？又或者是Kidd會告訴他Mark Cuban與Donnie Nelson是多麼友善的對待小牛的球員，而且這是一支不管有多少困境都會奮戰到底的球隊。Kidd很大方的表示他樂於擔任蝶龍會是其他一些球員的替補，在小牛或是別的球隊。Kidd說他想留下來，不過也不排除轉隊的可能。 His outlook: Kidd has also said he wants to play two more years to take him through 20 seasons and age 41. But can he be an effective everyday player at his age? Will a return to the full 82-game schedule, with its month-long buildup to the regular season and the normal days off between games help him stay healthy and be more effective than he was during this rushed and compacted season? And how much will he command on the open market? Does Kidd see himself as a full mid-level guy? And which teams that he might find attractive will be open to pay him? When the season ended, Kidd predicted that his future will be settled very quickly once the July 1 free agency period opens. Is that because he assumes that D-Will's future will be sealed quickly? The intrigue builds. Kidd說了他想再打兩年，這會讓在NBA打滾20個球季，並且打到41歲，不過到時候他還會是這麼有效率嗎？在球季回到82場比賽之後，球季拉長一個月，不過有更多的時間休息，Kidd的調整會比今年休息時間不足的縮水球季好嗎？他又希望在市場上得到怎樣的報價？Kidd真的把自己視為聯盟中的一般球員了嗎？哪些球隊會願意開價給他？今年球季結束之後，Kidd預測他在7月1號左右就會很快的決定去向，這是因為蝶龍的去向也很快就會確定了嗎？似乎有什麼陰謀。下集待續 (請大家不要反應太過激烈...這只是國外作家的看法而已跟小牛高層的決定沒有絕對的關係) -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 111.248.173.182
