※ 引述《netsfan (該低調了)》之銘言： : By FRED KERBER : http://www.nypost.com/sports/nets/25698.htm : July 1, 2005 -- When he was laboring in the NBA's Land of the Lost — a/k/a : Vancouver — Shareef Abdur-Rahim struck up a close working relationship with : an assistant on coach Brian Hill's staff. : That assistant was named Lawrence Frank. 當Shareef Abdur-Rahim在NBA的失落國度--溫哥華努力幹活之際，他跟Brian Hill 教練團中的一名助理建立起相當緊密的合作關係。那名助理名叫Lawrence Frank. : According to Abdur-Rahim's attorney, that friendship between the player and : the man who's now the Nets' head coach could prove invaluable to the Nets on : the free-agent market. : "That could be a huge factor," Aaron Goodwin, who last year tried to broker a : trade to get Abdur-Rahim from Portland to the Nets, said yesterday. "I would : say the Nets' chances [of signing him] are good. He likes the Nets. A year : ago we tried like heck to get something done." 根據Rahim的經紀人表示，Rahim跟已經身為籃網總教練的Frank之間的往日情誼，對正在自由球員市場中打滾的籃網來說可能將會是無價之寶。"這很有可能會影響 Rahim最後的決定,"去年曾努力安排將Rahim從波特蘭送往籃網的Aaron Goodwin表示 "我認為籃網十分有可能簽下他。他喜歡籃網。一年前我們可是拼死想促成這件事." : Abdur-Rahim is one of the prized targets for the Nets as free-agent : negotiations officially opened at 12:01 a.m. today. With the moratorium in : place over ratification of the new collective-bargaining agreement, teams : will not be able to sign free agents for three weeks. 當自由球員市場於12:01分正式開市後，Rahim就一直是籃網最看重的目標之一。在新的CBA生效之前，球隊必須在三週後才能與自由球員簽下合約。 : After drafting swingman Antoine Wright, who heads an impressive summer league : roster that starts play in Las Vegas on Wednesday, the Nets want to address : their size need through free agency. Abdur-Rahim, Donyell Marshall and : Stromile Swift are the top three on the Nets' wish list. : "We are going to address our frontcourt issues as quickly as we can," said : team president Rod Thorn. 籃網在選進搖擺人Antoine Wright（目前在拉斯維加斯開打的夏季聯盟中掛頭牌，陣容堪稱一時之選。）之後，籃網希望能夠透過簽下自由球員來解決陣容中沒有高度的煩惱。Rahim, Marshall, Swift是籃網的前三大目標。"我們將盡快解決我們前場的問題"球隊總裁Rod Thorn表示。 : Abdur-Rahim, also expected to be courted by the Spurs, Heat, Wizards and : Knicks, made $14.6 million last season but will take a massive cut. He wants : a winning situation — his nine seasons have produced a 216-492 record (.305) : despite career averages of 19.8 points and 8.1 rebounds. The only winning he : has known was a 17-15 stint with Portland after an in-season trade from : Atlanta. 馬刺、熱火、巫師、尼克都對Rahim有興趣。Rahim上季年薪為一千四百六十萬美金，但願意為了成為贏家而大幅降薪。雖然生涯平均有19.8分及8.1籃板，但球隊戰績總和卻是216勝492敗，勝率僅有三成零五。唯一勝率過半的時刻，是他在季中從亞特蘭大被交易到波特蘭之時，當時戰績17勝15敗。 : The Nets have the $4.9 million mid-level exception for teams over the salary : cap and another $4.9 million trade exception acquired in the Kerry Kittles : deal. That trade exception, desirable because teams over the cap need not : take a player, must be used by July 29, one year from the Kittles trade. : And the Nets, who established depth as a priority, will look beyond power : forwards. Even with Jacque Vaughn back, the Nets want to add depth at point : guard. They could consider Miami's Keyon Dooling, who'll opt out of the last : year of his contract ($807,506). Another to look at is Milt Palacio. Utah : swingman Raja Bell also is on the depth wish list. 籃網手上的籌碼有490萬的中產階級條款，以及交易Kittles後拿到的490萬trade exception. 後者對於超過薪資上限的球隊十分具有吸引力，因為無須再接收一名球員即可獲得。但此trade exception需在Kittles被交易一年內使用，也就是需在 7/29之前使用。而除了大前鋒之外，籃網也為了增添板凳深度而努力。雖然Vaughn 下一季會歸隊，籃網依然希望能夠招募一號位置的人手。目前考慮的有剛跳脫最後一年合約的Dooling以及Milt Palacio. 為了增加板凳深度，搖擺人Raja Bell也在名單之列。 : "We've targeted since the offseason guys that we think can help us get back : to the elite level we were at," said Frank. "We need to continue to bolster : our depth. It's not about necessarily where you're not happy with what you : have. But we need to get more or better. Where we've consistently gotten hurt : is ... playing Jason [Kidd], Vince [Carter] an unbelievable amount of : minutes." "一休季我們就與許多我們認為可以幫助籃網重返榮耀的球員們接洽。"Frank說， "我們需要繼續加深球隊陣容。不是說我們不滿意現有陣容，而是我們必須變的更好。如果一直讓Jason跟Vince超時上場最終將傷害到我們自己。" : The Nets formed their summer roster with two guys they truly felt would be : drafted, Clemson forward Sharrod Ford and Florida guard Anthony Roberson. : They landed experienced NBA guys with 6-foot-11 Ken Johnson, late of Miami, : and 6-10 journeyman Jelani McCoy. Other familiar names are Awvee Storey, with : the Nets last year, and 6-7 Sam Clancy, an '02 Sixer draft pick. 籃網夏季聯盟的陣容中有兩名深信自己在選秀日當天會雀屏中選的球員：來自 Clemson的前鋒Sharrod Ford以及Florida的後衛Anthony Roberson。陣中還有經歷過NBA的角色，像是6"11的Ken Johnson及6"10的Jelani McCoy。其他較為人熟悉的有去年呆過籃網的Awvee Storney及2002年被七六人選中的6"7新人Sam Clancy. -- 翻完怎麼覺得好像可以看到Rahim身披籃網球衣啦... -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 219.84.63.230
