D-Mo refuses to report Rockets - NBA

※ 引述《IBIZA (溫一壺月光作酒)》之銘言：
: 目前Twitter上的專欄作家指出的方向是
: DMo原本和籃網簽的4年3700萬報價中
: 含400萬的易達成獎金(likely bonus)跟200萬的不易達成獎金(unlikely bonus)
: 在火箭跟進報價之後, 400萬的易達成獎金也變成了不易達成獎金
: 所以DMo反悔不簽
: 不過這只是專欄作家的推測, 不是DMo方正式的說法
: 1.DMo在簽offer sheet之前, 應該就要考慮過跟進報價的情況
: 尤其是這個合約相關條件跟火箭之前提出的相似, 甚至對球隊更有利
: 不可能認為火箭不會跟進
: 2.likely bonus跟unlikely bonus的判斷應該是用前一年的成績
: DMo前一年的成績不是很出色, 如果相關達成條件在籃網被認為是容易達成
: 應該很難因為火箭跟進變成不易達成, 除非他連去年的成績都沒有信心達到

關於D-Mo合約，ESPN C.Watkins新報導。

http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/18227996/donatas-motiejunas-report-
houston-rockets-6-million-difference-offer-sheet

HOUSTON -- Restricted free agent Donatas Motiejunas won't report to the
Houston Rockets because of a difference of nearly $6 million from the
offer sheet he signed with the Brooklyn Nets, sources told ESPN on Wednesday.

火箭的受限制自由球員D-Mo未向火箭報到體檢，因為火箭的合約比籃網的少了600萬
美金。

Last week, Motiejunas signed a four-year, $37 million offer sheet with the
Nets. The Rockets on Monday opted to match that offer. However, based on
the CBA, the Rockets only had to match the principle terms of the offer
sheet, which came to $31 million.

上星期，D-Mo和籃網簽了4年3700萬的合約，火箭在這週一決定跟進合約。然而，
根據CBA的規定，火箭只跟進了主要合約，也就是4年3100萬的部分。

The $6 million difference was to be paid to Motiejunas via incentive
clauses if he played for the Nets.

600萬的差額是籃網的激勵獎金。

After the Rockets matched the offer sheet, Motiejunas had two days to
report for his physical, which his agent B.J. Armstrong told the team he
would not do.

當火箭跟進和同時，D-Mo有兩天的時間向火箭報到體檢，但經紀人BJA告知火箭，
D-Mo不會向球團報到。

Houston's options are to keep their first-refusal exercise notice open
and wait for Motiejunas to report. If he doesn't report, Houston can pull
the offer Thursday and Motiejunas would become a restricted free agent.
If they don't pull the offer, it would expire automatically March 1.

火箭的選擇若是保留他們的優先續約權等D-Mo報到，D-Mo若是不報到，火箭週四
收回，那麼D-Mo會重新回到受限制自由球員。假如沒有收回，那這合約會自動在
明年的三月一日作廢。

Rockets officials are willing to work a separate deal with Motiejunas,
something his agent is willing to talk about, in the $31 million range.
One of the problems with the offer sheet for the Rockets is a $9 million
guarantee for the 2017-18 season. Based on the offer sheet, a team would
have to make a decision on March 1 to enact that clause. Houston, accord-
ing to a source, would like to push that date to the summer.

(這邊英文語意不好翻)
火箭球團希望和D-Mo再達成額外的deal，也就是利用BJA想談的優勢下，
火箭希望把明年"三月一日"要決定是否執行第二年合約的權利，
推遲到明年暑假。

結論：
1. D-Mo經紀人出了大包，沒搞懂CBA規則，簽了一份火箭不用匹配全額金額的合約。
直接讓客戶少了600萬美金。
(下面視頻有說之前Batum在拓荒者是受限自由球員也發生過一次)
現在只能在那邊鬼扯"fight the right"。

2. 火箭目前站在優勢，因為規則就站在火箭這邊。
想藉由你要這份獎金的心態，把第二年合約的執行權利，
延後到明年暑假，這樣若是火箭自由球員市場"發生對xxx有興趣"時，
可以直接裁掉D-Mo。

當兩天前籃網合同出來時，
我想當天莫雷晚上應該睡得相當不好，
因為睡到一半也會被自己的笑聲嚇醒.......
