Report: Rockets, Cavs competing to sign Andrew Bogut

火箭和騎士正在追逐Andrew Bogut


Soon-to-be free agent center Andrew Bogut will have his choice of championship

contenders , and the Akron Beacon Journal’s Jason Lloyd reported that the two

main teams to watch are the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Houston Rockets.


根據Jason Lloyd的報導，自由市場上的中鋒Andrew Bogut將很快地做出決定加入哪隻冠軍

級別的隊伍，目前傳聞是騎士和火箭。



There will be a number of suitors in pursuit of Bogut, who is also eligible to

return to the Warriors because he was traded from Dallas to Philadelphia. He is

ineligible to return only to the team that most recently traded him, which in

this case is the Mavericks. So if the Warriors want him back, they may pursue

him. The Cavs have long had their eye on Bogut, but they’ll have competition

for him – primarily from the Houston Rockets.


肯定會有一些球隊對 Bogut有興趣；假設勇士希望Bogut重新回到勇士的陣容，是可以的，

因為在交易大限前，他被小牛交易到七六人，所以除了小牛外的隊伍都能追求他。騎士關

注Bogut已經一段時間了，但他們現在的主要競爭者，大概就是火箭。



For the record, Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr said Friday that he

didn’t anticipate the team would add another big man, per the San Francisco

Chronicle’s Connor Letourneau. Also, ESPN’s Marc Stein reported Thursday that

the San Antonio Spurs will try to sign Bogut. If this indeed comes down to Cavs

vs. Rockets, though, then he has an interesting decision to make. Both teams

want him to boost their defense and help them make a run at the Warriors.


周五時，Steve Kerr說他不預期勇士會有其他大個子加入。另外，ESPN週四報導馬刺將會

試著簽下Bogut。如果最後演變成騎士和火箭的搶人大戰，Bogut的決定將會很有趣。這兩

隻隊伍都希望藉由他能強化防守，同時擊敗勇士。


Bogut, who was traded from the Dallas Mavericks to the Philadelphia 76ers before

Thursday’s deadline and is expected to be released, might not be offered a

starting spot on either team. If he signs with the Rockets, though, he will

probably be promised a larger role as Clint Capela’s backup. On offense,

Houston primarily needs its big men to set on-ball screens and roll hard to the

rim, and he’s certainly capable of doing that. He’d also be excellent at

helping the Rockets’ shooters get open.


Bogut在週四交易大限前被小牛交易到七六人，被釋出是可預期的。在這兩隊，他或許都不

能先發。但加入火箭，他將成為Capela下場後的重要角色；在進攻端，他可為持球隊友們

的進行掩護或創造投射空檔，而這也是他最拿手的。



If he signs with the Cavaliers, I’d be curious about his role. It makes sense

that he’d get plenty of minutes now with Kevin Love out of the lineup, but

Cleveland typically likes to space the floor with shooters when it goes to the

second unit. Last season, big man Timofey Mozgov never really got a chance to

work his way back into the rotation after an injury because the Cavs were

playing so well with a frontcourt rotation of Love, Tristan Thompson, Channing

Frye and an occasional dose of LeBron James at the four spot. If Bogut is

simply an emergency option when the team needs rim protection,then he’s

overqualified for the role.


假如成為騎士的一員，我對他的定位就很好奇。當然，在Kevin Love下場後，他肯定會有

不少時間，但騎士的板凳球員，長期倚靠的是拉開空間進行投射。上賽季，俄羅斯大個子

Timofey Mozgov在受傷後，就很難以他擅長的打球方式回到輪換陣容中，因為他們前場表

現良好，在 Love、Thompson、Frye的輪換下，偶而LeBron也會輪替。如果騎士僅需要他護

框防守，可能又太大材小用了些。



Free agents generally pick their teams based on a combination of factors, from role to money to the quality of the

team and how they feel about the city. While Cleveland obviously gives Bogut

the best chance of returning to the NBA Finals, no contender has as much money

to offer him as Houston does. There’s a lot of talk about the Cavs potentially

adding Bogut and Deron Williams, but it would be unwise to dismiss the Rockets.


自由球員選擇球隊不外乎:球隊本身和當地城市的吸引力。騎士當然能提供 Bogut最佳的機

會重回總冠軍賽，但火箭有最大的薪資空間。有很多傳聞騎士會同時成為 Bogut和 Deron

Williams的新東家，但絕不能忽略火箭。
