Jeremy Lin considering playing in China, reportedly close to deal with
Beijing Ducks

Jeremy Lin finally won an NBA Championship this summer with the Toronto
Raptors, but maybe not the way he imagined. The 30-year-old only logged 51
seconds in the Finals and remains unsigned as a free agent this offseason.
林今年夏天終於在暴龍贏得冠軍了(雖然不是他理想中的方式)! 但這位30歲老將在冠軍賽
只登場51秒, 且休賽季季至今都沒獲得任何合約.

Lin already turned down offers from teams in Europe, as he continues to try
to find a new home in the NBA, but now his attention may be turning to China.
林仍然持續尋求NBA的新東家, 且已拒絕掉幾份歐洲球隊的合約. 不過他現在已將注意力
轉到中國.

According to a report from Sportando’s Sonx Xiang, Lin is in advanced
negotiations with the Beijing Ducks. If that name is familiar, it’s the same
team former NBA star — and current CBA coach — Stephon Marbury played on
for seven seasons.
根據Sportando的報導, 林已經跟北京首鋼鴨有了深入的會談. 這隊名聽起來很熟悉嗎?
這就是前NBA球星, 現CBA教練, Stephon Marbury打了7年的球隊.

Lin, who is the first American of Taiwanese or Chinese descent in the NBA, is
currently on his annual tour of Asia and has indicated multiple times that he
would consider playing across the Pacific.
林是第一位美籍台裔或華裔的NBA球員. 他目前正在參加每年例行的亞洲巡迴活動,
且多次表示他願意在太平洋另一端打球.

“About five years ago, I began to consider whether I should play basketball
in Asia,” Lin said in July, via the South China Morning Post, “because
every year when I visit the region I see so many fans, and they make me want
to play a few seasons in the region.”
林曾在南中國晨郵報上表示:"大約五年前我就開始考慮是否要在亞洲打球了, 因為每年
當我來到這裡時, 我都看見好多我的球迷, 他們讓我想要在此打幾個球季."

If a deal with the Ducks does not come to fruition, one other option Lin has
discussed is possibly playing with his brother, Joseph, for the Fubon Braves
in Taiwan's Super Basketball League. While the CBA is considered a higher
level of competition, the Braves could also be intriguing because they won
the SBL crown a month before Lin won it all with the Raptors this June.
如果跟首鋼鴨談不出結果, 林的另外一個選擇就是加入台灣SBL的富邦勇士, 跟他弟弟
一起打球. 雖然中國CBA被認為競爭水準較高, 但加入富邦勇士也挺有趣的. 因為勇士
恰巧在暴龍贏得冠軍的前一個月也獲得SBL冠軍.

Lin’s preference remains to play in the NBA, and he could still be a
serviceable third-string guard. Although he only shot 29.4 percent from three
last season — below his 34.2 percent career average — he's effective in the
pick-and-roll and is a strong free-throw shooter.
林仍然偏好留在NBA, 他也有能力當一個第三線控衛. 雖然他上季三分球只有29.4%,
遠低於他生涯34.2%的水準, 他仍是一個擋拆好手, 且罰球精準.
