http://0rz.tw/NcaAh As I have pointed out numerous times in the past, the Pelicans have to get Gordon’s contract off the books by the beginning of next summer at the very latest. That will be the last summer that the Pelicans will have Anthony Davis on his rookie contract before a monstrous extension that will start off at nearly $20 million per year will kick in. The ideal scenario would be to trade Eric Gordon for an expiring contract this summer or trade him to a team that has enough cap room to just absorb his salary without giving us anything in return. The fallback option, if that could not be done, would be to use the stretch provision next summer to create some flexibility. 下個夏天就必須將EG的合約丟掉，因為AD要換約了，預估將會是每年將近20M。最理想的就是用EG拿去換到期約，或交易到有足夠薪資空間的球隊，如果都不行，那就只能等到下個夏天了。 Trading Gordon this summer for an expiring is possible, but the Pelicans would likely have to give up assets to get that done because Gordon’s deal is so bad. The more likely option is that they would have to take back another questionable long-term contract (McGee, Sanders, Galinari, etc.) but that does not help them create room for the 2015 free agent class. But let me ask you this – What if Gordon’s deal was an expiring? What if, instead of being on a 2 year/$30.4 million contract, he was on a 1 year/$14.8 million contract? Would that make him much easier to trade? 也許可以拿去換到期約，但更可能的是必須一起丟掉一些有用的資產，因為EG的約實在是太爛了。最可能的就是換回同樣有問題的長約，但那對於球隊在2015創造空間一點幫助都沒有。但如果EG的約是到期約呢？是不是會讓他更好交易？ The answer is undeniably yes. If Gordon was an expiring, he would be much more sought after than he would be in a scenario in which a team owed him for two more years. Suddenly, it becomes an expiring for an expiring swap, and you can envision scenarios in which the Bulls would prefer to have Gordon for one year over Carlos Boozer. Or maybe the Knicks would prefer one year of Eric Gordon over one year of Tyson Chandler. The Bobcats might be willing to gamble on Gordon if its only for a year, and the same could be said for a team like the Hawks. 絕對是的，如果EG是到期約，一定會比他還有兩年約來的好交易，這樣子就會變成是到期約換到期約，就可以想見公牛或許會比較想要EG而不是Boozer，也或許尼克可能想要EG的一年約勝過泰山的一年約。山貓或許也想要賭一下，因為也就才一年而已。 All of a sudden, Gordon goes from a negative trade asset to a neutral one, and that would be HUGE for the Pelicans. But how do we get there? It’s quite simple actually, and ironically, all we have to do is look back to the trade in which he was acquired for the answer. The Clippers agreed to send Gordon and others to New Orleans for Chris Paul under one condition – that Paul would opt in to the second year of his contract. Paul, like Gordon currently, had one year left on his deal and a second year that was a player option. The Clippers did not want to risk making the trade and then losing Paul the following summer, so they insisted he opt in. He did, and the trade was completed. 突然間EG從負交易資產變成正常的資產，這對鵜鶘來說是很巨大的。但要怎麼做？其實很簡單，以前快艇就做過了。快艇那時候願意用EG和其他人來換CP3，但那時候CP3像現在的 EG一樣還有二年約，第二年是球員選項，快艇怕CP3不會留下來，所以他們堅持要他執行球員選項，他也做了，所以交易就完成了。 What the Pelicans need Gordon to do is the exact opposite. The Pelicans need to inform Gordon and his agent that they can get him to the destination that he wants and puts him in the role that he wants if he simply agrees to decline his player option for 2015-16. If he does that, the Pelicans and Rob Pelinka (Gordon’s agent), could spend the next few weeks fielding offers from numerous teams and resolving this situation. The Pelicans should want nothing more than to get Gordon off the books, and Gordon surely wants nothing more than to showcase his skill set on a team that can utilize him, with a fan base that might appreciate him. 鵜鶘要EG做的剛好相反，鵜鶘需要去通知EG和他的經紀人，他們可以讓他去他想要去的地方，而且讓他擔任他想要的角色，只要他願意放棄15-16年的球員選項。如果他真的做了，鵜鶘和他的經紀人也許接下來幾個禮拜就可以收到其他隊的offer，解決這個困境。鵜鶘想要的就是移掉EG，EG想要的就是在會用他而且球迷也許會喜歡他的球隊展現他的球技。 And if you are Eric Gordon, why wouldn’t you agree to this arrangement? By his comments, he obviously thinks he is still a top-level NBA player capable of leading a franchise and “setting a tone.” If you believe that much in yourself, then prove it. You don’t need the security of that extra year, because once you go show out to the league, there will be a dozen teams knocking at your door to give you a new max contract in 2015. And since you will be further along in your career, the starting salary for that new max deal will be significantly higher than the last one you signed. 如果你是EG，為什麼你不會同意？照他的言論來看，他明顯認為他還是最高層級能夠帶領球隊的球員。如果你這麼相信你自己，那就證明他吧。你不需要額外一年的保障，因為一旦你展現給全聯盟看，將會有許多球隊會在2015年給你最大約。 It’s an ideal scenario for everybody. If you are Demps, you call him up today and tell him that he will come off the bench if he returns here next season. But, if he agrees to void his player option, that you will work hand-in-hand with Gordon and his agent to find him an ideal landing place this summer. He gets the love and adoration that he desires, and the Pelicans get to transition to the tandem that should have been their starting backcourt all along. 對所有人來說這都是最理想的方案。如果你是Dell，你會今天就打給他，告訴他下個球季他是替補，但如果他如果同意放棄他的球員選項，那就會在今年夏天幫他找最理想的地方。他會得到他最渴望的愛與崇拜，鵜鶘也可以由他們的明星後場來帶領球隊。 Sounds like a win-win to me. 對我來說這聽起來是雙贏 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 220.136.211.70 ※ 文章網址: http://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Pelicans/M.1399997625.A.BC6.html
