NBA Rumors: Blazers Could Explore Trading CJ McCollum For Ben Simmons, ‘
Bleacher Report’ Suggests

傳聞：拓荒者可能會試探是否能用麥卡倫換西門

Despite suffering another huge disappointment in the 2019-20 NBA season, the
Portland Trail Blazers still intend to continue building around the explosive
backcourt duo of Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum. However, according to Andy
Bailey of Bleacher Report, the Trail Blazers’ decision to keep Lillard and
McCollum should depend on the movements in the 2020 offseason. If a player
like Philadelphia 76ers superstar Ben Simmons becomes officially available on
the trading block this fall, Bailey suggested that the Trail Blazers should
explore trading McCollum to the City of Brotherly Love to acquire the former
No. 1 overall pick.

雖然今年讓人失望，拓荒首仍然希望繞著雙後場來建隊。但2020季後的操作會根據市場
的狀況。假如76人隊的西門可以開放交易的話，Bailey建議拓荒者應該用麥卡倫來
換前狀元

Despite his inability to space the floor, trading McCollum for Simmons would
make a lot of sense for the Trail Blazers. As Bailey noted, pairing him would
Lillard would enable them to create their own version of the Golden State
Warriors’ dynamic duo of Stephen Curry and Draymond Green.

儘管他射不了，把西門交易過來對拓荒者來說很合理。讓西門跟小李搭配的話
就創造了他們自己版本的咖哩和嘴綠

“For Portland, this would purely be a talent play. Simmons’ refusal to
shoot jumpers would cause problems similar to those he has faced in
Philadelphia, but the presence of Damian Lillard would certainly alleviate
them. Think of him as a bigger, more athletic Draymond Green to Lillard’s
Stephen Curry. The level of playmaking Simmons could provide at the 4 would
open things up for everyone else on the floor. And with Jusuf Nurkic slowly
expanding his game to include threes, there would be plenty of opportunities
for Simmons to attack an open lane.”

西門拒絕投籃或許會讓他遇到跟在76人隊一樣的問題，但小李的存在可以舒解這些問題
。可以把西門想成更大，更有運動力的嘴綠來搭配小李版的咖哩。西門的持球能力可以
解放大家。隨著Nurkic慢慢開始射三分後，西門會有很大的空間來切入

Though he’s yet to unlock his three-point shooting skills, Simmons would
give the Trail Blazers a very reliable second scoring option, rebounder,
playmaker, and perimeter defender. This season, he averaged 16.4 points, 7.8
rebounds, 8.0 assists, and 2.1 steals while shooting 58.0 percent from the
field, per ESPN. Aside from boosting their performance on the offensive end,
the potential arrival of Simmons would also help the Trail Blazers improve
their defensive efficiency that currently ranks No. 27 in the league,
allowing 111.8 points per 100 possessions, per ESPN.

雖然他的三分能力尚未開發，西門可以成為穩定的第二得分點、籃板手、持球手和
護框者。西門的到來可以同時強化拓荒者的防守和進攻

Meanwhile, though Simmons is believed to have a higher ceiling than McCollum,
the proposed deal would also be very beneficial for the Sixers. It would
allow them to replace the former No. 1 overall pick with another All-Star
caliber talent that is a much better with franchise cornerstone Joel Embiid.
Giving Embiid a new superstar running mate who is an elite three-point
shooter could help the Sixers maximize his full potential on the court.

同時，雖然西門的天花板高於麥卡倫，這個交易對於七六人也有好處，它可以
讓鉛筆搭配到另外一個球星，麥卡倫可以提供三分火力，解放鉛筆

The Sixers wouldn’t miss Simmons’ playmaking skills. Though he naturally
plays the shooting guard position, McCollum is also capable of running the
floor and making plays for his teammates. Also, moving out of the shadow of
Lillard would give him the opportunity to further improve his game and speed
up his development into a legitimate superstar in the league.

雖然七六人會想念西門的持球能力，麥卡倫也可以做到同樣的事，而且離開了小李
他會有更大的進步空間


心得：
這樣換其實算是雙贏
但就拓荒者大贏
七六人小贏
所以看拓荒者還要貼什麼出來才比較合理

小李才被問怎麼不打無球
西門來的話就可以打了
