匿名GM：MJ不會為了坦Wembanyama而同意擺爛

The Hornets have missed the playoffs in each of the last 6 seasons, and they are
a pretty good bet not to make it in this season either after a 4-13 start. They
are currently second from bottom in the Eastern Conference, but there is a big
reward waiting for teams that do struggle this season, as Victor Wembanyama will
be a part of the 2023 NBA Draft.

黃蜂在過去的6個賽季都沒能打進季後賽，在4勝13敗的開局後，他們本賽季也很有可能無緣
季後賽，他們目前在東區排名倒數第二。但是對於那些在本賽季掙扎的球隊來說，有一個巨
大的獎品在等著他們，因為Victor Wembanyama將是2023年NBA選秀大會的一員。

Wembanyama is a generational talent who will completely transform the fortunes o
f whatever franchise he goes to. Giannis Antetokounmpo warned the NBA about Wemb
anyama as he said he will be a big problem to deal with for everybody. A lot of
teams are expected to tank for the Frenchman, but it would appear the Hornets wo
n't be one of them. An anonymous NBA GM told Sean Deveney that Jordan would neve
r be fine with a fire sale even if it meant they could get Wembanyama.

Wembanyama是不世出的天才球員，無論他去哪支球隊，他都能徹底改變球隊命運。字母哥向
NBA發出警告，他說Wembanyama將成為所有人的大麻煩。很多球隊都在為這位法國人做準備
，但黃蜂似乎不是其中一隊。一位匿名的NBA總經理透露，即使擺爛有機會得到Wembanyama
，MJ也不會同意這樣做。

“The hurdle is getting the owner to go along with it,” the GM told Heavy Sport
s. “It is Michael Jordan. He has never OK’d something like that and it is not
clear he would, even if it gets bad this year, even if it puts them in a good sp
ot in the draft for Victor (Wembanyama). He has been pretty strong against tanki
ng. Hard to see another way forward for them now, though.”

GM：困難的點是如何讓老闆同意，他們的老闆可是MJ，他從來沒有同意過這樣的事情，現在
還不清楚他會不會同意。即使今年球隊情況變得很糟糕，即使這會使他們處於一個得到Wemb
anyama的好位置，但他堅決反對擺爛，不過現在很難看出他們還有別的出路。

Even if MJ doesn't want to tank, the Hornets are going to lose a lot of games th
is season. LaMelo Ball has been hampered by injuries so far and has played just
3 games this season, while Miles Bridges, their second-best player last season,
hasn't played a game this season and remains a restricted free agent after being
charged with domestic abuse.

即使MJ不想擺爛，黃蜂本賽季也會輸掉很多比賽。到目前為止，球三一直飽受傷病困擾，本
賽季只打了3場比賽，而陣中第二好的球員Bridges因為家暴案還沒有打過一場比賽。

It is just a really bad situation to be in, and it seems like the Hornets are de
stined to finish with one of the worst records in the NBA. If they get lucky, th
en they might end up landing Wembanyama, and he might finally be the man who tur
ns things around for this franchise.

情況對於黃蜂來說很糟糕，看起來黃蜂注定會以NBA倒數的戰績收場。如果運氣好的話，他
們可能會得到Wembanyama，進而真正扭轉球隊的局面。
