https://reurl.cc/OQ76qX THERE ARE, BY one recent count, 46 items banned from the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club during the two-week tournament from Wimbledon. Among them are selfie sticks, which left superagent Rich Paul with a dilemma as he tried Tuesda y afternoon to co-host the "Game Over" podcast he does with Max Kellerman from t he venue. 根據最近的統計，在溫布頓網球錦標賽兩週賽事期間，英國全英草地網球暨槌球俱樂部共禁止攜帶46種物品，其中包括自拍棒，這讓知名經紀人Rich Paul 陷入兩難，因為他原本打算在週二下午於現場與Max Kellerman一同主持《Game Over》Podcast Cell phones must be placed on silent during matches, and no calls are permitted from the stands. So earlier in the day Tuesday, when Paul needed to call Lakers president of basketball operations Rob Pelinka to inform him that his star clien t, LeBron James, would be continuing his basketball career elsewhere, he stepped into the Polo by Ralph Lauren store in the Southern Village to make the call. 比賽進行期間，手機必須調成靜音，而且觀眾席禁止接打電話，因此當天稍早，Paul必須致電湖人籃球事務總裁Rob Pelinka，告知他自己的頭號客戶 LeBron James將在其他球隊繼續職業生涯時，只好走進南村的Ralph Lauren Polo 專賣店內完成這通電話 For a week, neither James' camp nor the Lakers had exchanged formal or even info rmal offers, according to sources on both sides of the situation. 根據雙方消息人士透露，在過去一週內，LeBron James團隊與湖人之間，無論正式或非正式，都沒有交換任何合約報價 Nor had they discussed a vision for a future together, or even met face-to-face -- in person or virtually. 雙方也沒有討論共同的未來藍圖，甚至沒有進行任何面對面會談，不論是實體還是線上都沒有 The Lakers called Paul a week before free agency, when teams could approach thei r own free agents, to try to arrange a videoconference with James and were told he wasn't available. 自由球員市場開啟前一週，也就是各隊可以接觸自家自由球員的時間點，湖人曾致電Paul，希望安排與James進行視訊會議，但得到的回覆是James沒有時間 Paul didn't say why at the time, but he told ESPN it was because James had alrea dy decided he didn't want to return to the Lakers and that there was no need for a call. Paul 當時沒有說明原因，但他向ESPN表示，那是因為James早已決定不再回到湖人，因此根本沒有必要安排這場會議 The Lakers had approached all of their free agents in a similar manner. After an initial videoconference with Austin Reaves, an elaborate pitch meeting was sche duled at the team's facility. 湖人對所有自家自由球員都採取了類似的方式接觸，在與 Austin Reaves進行首次視訊會議後，球隊又安排了一場精心準備的續約簡報會，地點就在球隊訓練設施 Customized pillows and blankets were designed and presented to Reaves. Steaks we re ordered in. His favorite country music was played. Soon afterward, he agreed to a new four-year, $185 million deal. 球隊特別為Reaves準備了客製化的枕頭與毛毯，也訂了牛排，現場播放他最喜歡的鄉村音樂，不久之後，他便同意簽下一份4年1.85億美元的新合約 James didn't want any of that. After the season, sources close to James said the most important factor in him re-signing would be how the Lakers approached him. James對這些安排毫無興趣，賽季結束後，接近James的人士表示，他是否續約最重要的關鍵，在於湖人會以什麼樣的態度與方式來和他溝通 He might have been willing to take a pay cut from the $52.6 million he'd made th e season before, sources said, if the Lakers explained how they planned to reall ocate the money. 消息人士指出，如果湖人願意向他說明，打算如何重新分配他降薪所省下來的薪資空間，Ja mes原本是有可能接受比前一季5260萬美元更低的薪水 They never did, and James never made himself available to meet. He had been a pr iority enough times in his career to know when he wasn't one. 然而湖人始終沒有這麼做，而James也始終沒有安排與球隊見面，在漫長的職業生涯中，他曾無數次成為球隊最優先考量，因此他很清楚，什麼時候自己已經不再是第一順位 Pelinka made numerous promises to Doncic that he'd do everything he could to bri ng him a top-tier center and younger perimeter players whose shooting would help space the floor for him to operate. Rob Pelinka向Luka Doncic做出多項承諾，表示會盡力為他補進頂級中鋒，以及具備投射能力、能拉開空間的年輕外圍球員 Heading into this offseason, Pelinka and his new front office -- which now inclu des guidance from Los Angeles Dodgers executives Andrew Friedman and Farhan Zaid i -- came up with plans to deliver on the promises made to Doncic. 進入這個休賽季前，Rob Pelinka與他的新管理層——其中還包括來自道奇的高層Andrew Fr iedman與Farhan Zaidi的指導——制定了方案，要兌現當初對Luka Doncic的承諾 One set of plans included James, which Lakers sources maintain was their first c hoice. 其中一套方案是包含LeBron James的，而湖人內部消息人士堅稱，這其實是他們的首選方案 Re-signing Reaves was a top priority. Then they'd pursue the top restricted free agent centers: Detroit's Jalen Duren and Utah's Walker Kessler. If they couldn' t land either of them, they'd pivot to unrestricted free agency with New York's Mitchell Robinson. 重新簽回Austin Reaves是優先任務之一，接著他們會追逐受限制自由球員中的頂級中鋒：底特律的Jalen Duren與猶他的Walker Kessler，如果兩者都無法得到，就會轉向非受限自由球員市場，目標包括紐約的Mitchell Robinson James would have likely been offered what was left after a center was secured. LeBron James很可能只能拿到在補強中鋒之後「剩下的薪資空間」 Another set of plans did not include James. 另一套方案則不包含LeBron James Those looked similar, except they allowed L.A. to bolster its roster depth with free agent targets such as Sandro Mamukelashvili and Quentin Grimes. 這些計畫內容大致相似，但會讓湖人有更多空間補強板凳深度，例如追逐Sandro Mamukelas hvili與Quentin Grimes等自由球員 It didn't take long for a fundamental problem to emerge. 很快一個根本性的問題就浮現了 The Lakers could offer James more than any other team because they held his Bird rights. But they deduced that the only way they could keep James and acquire a top-flight center -- their promise to Doncic -- was if James took a vastly reduc ed salary from his $52.6 million. 湖人因為擁有鳥權，可以提供比其他球隊更高的合約給LeBron James，但他們推論，要同時留下他並補進頂級中鋒（對Luka Doncic的承諾），唯一方法就是讓LeBron James大幅降薪，從原本的5260萬美元薪資讓出空間 Even if they offered $10 million to $15 million more than any other team, James could still see their offer as a pay cut if another team was offering the most i t was allowed to offer him, one team source explained. It was the curse of incum bency. 即使湖人比其他球隊多開出1000萬到1500萬美元，LeBron James仍可能把這視為變相降薪，因為其他球隊可以開出規則允許的最高價，一名球隊消息人士稱，這就是既有球隊的詛咒 How could they present that to James without him taking it as a sign of disrespe ct? For weeks they held internal discussions on the matter. 如何向LeBron James提出這件事而不被視為不尊重？湖人內部為此討論了數週 Still, despite their deliberations, James saw through it. Like he has so often d one on the court, he read the play before it happened. 然而即便如此，LeBron James仍看穿了這一切，就像他在球場上一樣，提前讀懂局勢 He broke up with the Lakers before they could break up with him. 他在湖人準備分手之前，先一步選擇離開 One Lakers team source believes the franchise, which for decades was known for c atering to its stars, didn't do enough for James. 一位湖人內部人士認為，這支長期以來以照顧球星著稱的球隊，其實對LeBron James做得不夠 "Honestly, I don't know if we did enough to acknowledge the sacrifices he made i n being willing to give the keys over to Luka and AR this year," the staffer con ceded. 「老實說，我不知道我們是否有足夠承認他願意把球隊主導權交給Luka Doncic和Austin Re aves的犧牲」該員工承認 "Of course he has a big ego and people can say what they want about that. But he 's also the No. 1 scorer in the history of basketball and he really tried to do what was best for the team to win." 「他當然有很強的自我，但他也是NBA歷史得分王，他真的在努力做對球隊最好的事」 — 內部人士堅稱留下LBJ是他們首選？ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 1.162.51.210 (臺灣) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/NBA/M.1783347148.A.7D9.html
