: 這篇文章雖然不短 但寫得很中肯 國外網友TZ大的文章在sactownroyalty一直很有水準
: 我希望版友們可以試著自己先讀...因為文章字句不難..自己先閱讀可以跟之後別人的理解
: 做交換心得 等到有能人翻譯之後 亦可驗證自己的理解是否正確 支持國王也可以增進英文
: 版友們可以接力一人翻一段 既不會負擔過重 也可以減輕S版友的壓力（先給他鼓鼓掌喔）
: During the season, there are few ways you can improve:

在球季期間，有幾種方式是你可以改善的：

: You can fire the coach, but that's not going to happen. Eric Musselman hasn't
: been perfect, and he absolutely needs to take control of his offense. But this
: team wouldn't get immediately better by handing the reins off to someone else,
: and we all know that.

你可以火了教練，但那是不可能發生的(笑)。肌肉男並非完美，且無疑需要控制進攻；
但我們都知道，這個球隊不會因為換了人就馬上變得比較好。

: You can alter the rotation.I think Francisco Garcia should be getting a lot
: more run. He has played well in his chances, he's the team's second-best
: defender, his shot is coming around, and he has really good chemistry with
: Kevin Martin. Also, Brad Miller needs to be back in the starting lineup as soon
: as possible. It's for the sake of Shareef Abdur-Rahim and Mike Bibby, really.
: Reef is much better off playing the four, even if it means less minutes. And
: Bibby needs Miller like The Birdman needs a lava lamp.

你可以改變陣容。我認為賈西亞應該多上場一些。他上場時表現很好，他是球隊裡防守
第二好的球員，外線投射也有發揮，然後他跟馬丁有著相當良好的互動。此外，大米需
要儘快回到先發，也是為了SAR和Bibby，我說真的。SAR打4號還是比較好，即便那可能
上場時間減少，而且Bibby需要大米就像飛行員需要燈塔一樣。

: You can make a trade. This option is also known as "The Geoff Petrie Option."
: You realize he's traded Chris Webber, Doug Christie, Bobby Jackson, and Peja
: Stojakovic - traded them all! - in the last two years? Name another team that
: traded away four of the six biggest pieces of its glory team. This wasn't a
: case of letting newly expensive players walk away. This was actively finding
: a buyer and taking mostly scraps back in return. You think Petrie will let this
: team sit around .500 in February without finding a partner to take an Artest,
: Miller, Bibby, Kenny Thomas, or Shareef? I don't.

你可以做交易。就像大家知道的，是派崔的選擇。你明白他交易了Chris Webber, Doug
Christie, Bobby Jackson, and Peja Stojakovic - 把他們全交易了！在過去2年內？
變成另一個球隊而交易了原黃金陣容6大主力中的4個。積極地尋找買家然後換回大量的
拼圖。你認為派崔會讓球隊徘徊在5成左右的勝率直到二月而不找個買家交易走如Artest
, Miller, Bibby, Kenny Thomas, or Shareef 嗎？我不這麼想。

: So what trade pieces do the Kings have? Over the next couple days, we'll look
: at the roster and judge who might be getting the call from Petrie's office
: this spring. Today, we start with the big names.

然而國王有什麼交易的籌碼呢？在未來的日子裡，看看陣容然後判斷哪一支球隊可能在
明年春天接到派崔的電話吧！今天，我們從幾個熱門人選開始。

: BIG NAMES
: Ron Artest might be the first name that comes to mind for some. The Kings have
: certainly rehabbed his image, which was Priority #1 when he came to town. No
: matter how well he played,Sacramento needed him to prove he could be reasonably
: sane on the court in order to get his trade value back up towards normal. I
: think this has been a success. His defensive prowess has not been deflated in
: his shift westward either,and that makes him valuable for almost any contender.
: His offense is still below-average for all his talents, which is what keeps him
: from pure superstar status. And teams won't soon forget the big ordeal last
: January, where Artest seemingly picked what team he'd be traded to. Because of
: those faults, and his obvious history, you won't get 100 cents on the dollar
: for him. But you might get 80-90 cents for him, and that'd be fantastic
: considering what you gave up.
: Mike Bibby is a flummoxing choice. He might be untradeable simply due to his
: contract situation. He's signed for two more seasons past this one, but he has
: on opt-out clause he can execute this summer. If he does, he's a free agent. If
: not, he gets paid $28 million over the next two seasons, then he becomes a free
: agent. Teams won't give up anything more than equal value for a half-season
: Bibby rental without knowing he's not going to stick with the contract. And the
: only way to know he's going to stick with the contract is for him to continue
: sucking out loud. And if he continues to suck out loud, how many contenders are
: going to say, "Hey, sign me up!" And what would the Kings be able to get? The
: earliest the Kings would be able to trade Bibby would be this offseason, after
: he makes a binding decision on the contract.
: Brad Miller is another marquee type player Petrie might think about moving for
: smaller pieces. Yao, Andrew Bynum, and Greg Oden might conspire to bring the
: center back, so who wouldn't want a top-drawer five for the next three seasons?
: Well,there are those who believe Miller is on the downside of his career,losing
: athleticism everyday and lacking any real defensive ability. And those that
: believe this might constitute most of the league.Nonetheless, anyone wishing to
: execute the Rick Adelman needs a strong passing, strong shooting center like
: Brad Miller,and I guarantee Rick Adelman will have a job this time next season.
: Will it be in Boston, or Toronto, or Charlotte, or Seattle, or Minnesota, or
: Milwaukee? Of those teams, only Seattle and Milwaukee would likely be
: disinterested in a Brad Miller type. I predict that whereever Adelman lands,
: Miller is discussed heavily as being on the next plane.
