Toronto Raptors have quality pieces, but more change coming this off-season? http://ppt.cc/LntG June 10, 2013 by davidkay The Toronto Raptors missed out on the post-season for a fifth straight year and as a result, made a change at the top of their organization.

That move combined with the acquisition of point guard Kyle Lowry during the off-season adding quality veterans in an attempt to accelerate their post-Chris Bosh rebuilding efforts. Gay was his typical productive self on the offensive and while Lowry didn’t wow anyone with his play, allowed Toronto to deal long-time Raptor Jose Calderon for Gay. 暴龍隊這個賽季有著顯著進步，因為他們交易來Gay這個關鍵的得分角色；另外還包括在休賽季所獲得的老將控衛Kyle Lowry，企圖加速Bosh離隊後的重建工作。Gay還是一樣在自己的進攻端上很有辦法。不過Lowry沒有讓人驚艷的表現，這讓暴龍用身為長期暴龍人的Jose Calderon來換Gay。 Jonas Valanciunas'arrival was much anticipated and while he struggled with injury and the early transition to the NBA game, he played very well down the stretch to prove his potential is plentiful as the Raps’ big man of the future. His expected frontcourt mate, Andrea Bargnani once again battled the injury bug and when healthy, had his worst season in five years. His name popped up in trade rumors throughout the season and it is beginning to become more clear that his future is not as promising as it once was. 大V的到來是萬眾期盼的。當他和傷病跟過渡NBA的不適應搏鬥後，他證明了他是個淺力十足而且會是暴龍未來的禁區支柱。原本預期是他禁區戰友的狀元郎，又再次地在傷病中掙扎，且打出了他五年來最糟的球季。這賽季交易傳言不斷出現狀元郎的名字，他的未來不再像是幾年前那樣的被看好了。 Fresh off his contract extension, DeMar DeRozan was the team's top scorer until Gay arrived and the duo provides a lot of athleticism and scoring punch on the wing. Newly acquired Landry Fields didn't make the impact that Toronto had hoped when they signed him away from the Knicks in the off-season but rookie Terrence Ross did show enough potential to reportedly make him "untouchable" in any trade scenarios. 解決續約的問題後DeMar DeRozan在Gay來之前是暴龍隊的頭號得分手。在Gay來以後，這兩個人在側翼展現了很多運動和得分能力。而剛從尼克轉來的Landry Fields則沒有展現當初暴龍在休賽季把它簽來所期望的影響力。至於新秀Terrence Ross則表現出他有足夠的潛力，這使他絕對不會出現在任何暴龍隊的交易傳聞上。 With all of the moves Toronto has made and new pieces they have added in the past twelve months, there is going to be some time needed before the pieces all mesh together. It is now the job of Ujiri and Dwayne Casey (assuming he is retained as head coach) to get the new look roster out of their playoff drought. 在過去十二個月裡，暴龍隊裡增加了些新的部分，將這些部分整合再一起是需要時間的。現在是Ujiri和Dwayne Casey(假設他還是未來教頭)的工作來解決我們的季後賽乾旱期了。 2013-14 Projected Depth Chart: C: Jonas Valanciunas/Aaron Gray PF: Andrea Bargnani/Amir Johnson/Quincy Acy SF: Rudy Gay/Landry Fields/Linas Kleiza SG: DeMar DeRozan/Terrence Ross PG: *Kyle Lowry/John Lucas III NBA Free Agents: *PG-Kyle Lowry (TO) SF-Mickael Pietrus (UFA) SG-Alan Anderson (UFA) PG-Sebastian Telfair (UFA) 2013-14 Team Salary: approximately $70.6 million Team Needs: 1. Trade Bargnani: Bargnani is still on the books for $23 million for the next two seasons and while his trade value is at an all-time low, Ujiri might be willing to give him up for ten cents on the dollar if it will help create some cap space. On paper, Bargnani’s ability to stretch the floor with his outside shooting would be a terrific compliment inside to the bruising Valanciunas. Nevertheless, Ujiri would likely pull the trigger on a deal if it can help the team’s long-term salary situation. Amnestying Bargnani could be another option for the new GM if a trade is not possible. 1.交易Bargnani:狀元郎未來的兩個賽季還有兩千三百萬美金，而且他的交易價值正好來到最低點。只要真的可以清除薪資空間，現在可能給Ujiri 10分美金他也會同意交易。其實在場上，狀元郎他的外線投籃能力可以幫大V清出空間。儘管如此， Ujiri還是可能為了長期下來的薪資空間扣下交易板機的。當然啦，特赦狀元郎會是在交易不成下的另外一種選擇。 2. Point Guard: Lowry has a $6.2 million team option on the final year of his contract that the Toronto Raptors would be moronic not to pick up. With that being said, Lowry had a bit of a roller coaster first season north of the border, battling injury, clashing with his head coach, and not playing as well as he did in Houston. The Raps could look to move Lowry this summer but even if he is back on the roster for 2013-14, finding another option outside John Lucas III at the point would be a smart move. 2.控球後衛:暴龍隊不撿起Lowry最後一年六百二十萬的球隊選項顯然是愚笨的。雖然如此，Lowry在這個北陸邊境的第一個球季表現得像雲霄飛車一樣。不但和傷痛為伍，而且還跟教練有些衝突，打得實在不像他在休士頓表現的一樣。這個夏天，暴龍隊可以試試交易Lowry。即便下個球季Lowry仍然在球員名單上，暴龍在John Lucas III之外找到另一個可以交替的人選會是聰明的選擇。 3. Hire George Karl: After Ujiri left Denver, Karl was surprisingly fired as head coach of the Nuggets. That pair obviously did good things together in Denver so why not let go of Casey and make a serious run at Karl who has helped mid-small market teams like the Nuggets and Bucks reach their potential. I’m not sure how enticing it would be for Karl to take the Raps head coaching job especially when there are better openings out there but with his experience in finding ways for a team to jell, why not make a serious run at reuniting in Toronto? 3.找George Karl當教頭:當Ujiri離開金塊之後，金塊出乎意料的火了教練Karl，這對組合一起在丹佛做出了好成績。所以為什麼不放掉Casey，讓曾經幫助過中小市場球隊像是金塊和公鹿發揮他們淺力的教練George Karl。當還有更好的職位空缺時，我不確定當暴龍隊總教頭對Karl來說是否動心。不過有鑒於他曾將那些球隊融為一體，為什麼不試試找他過來呢? -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 118.168.83.239 ※ 編輯: WAYNE1989 來自: 118.168.83.239 (06/13 23:02)
