Kawhi Leonard could be San Antonio's best recruiter. (USATSI)
Kawhi Leonard可能會是聖安東尼奧的最佳招聘員
The San Antonio Spurs have their new franchise cornerstone in Kawhi Leonard,
the two-way superstar who scored 32 points while smothering the Los Angeles
Clippers in Game 3 on Friday. He'll be a restricted free agent in July, and
the Spurs are hoping to lock him up with a max deal, then chase another free
agent -- Portland Trail Blazers big man LaMarcus Aldridge, according to Yahoo
Sports' Adrian Wojnarowski:
聖安東尼奧馬刺特有的新基石是Kawhi Leonard，這位雙能的巨星在周五的第三戰奪取32
分窒息了洛杉磯快艇。他將在七月成為受限自由球員，且馬刺正期望用頂薪把他綁下，然
後去追求另一位自由球員─波特蘭拓荒者的長人LaMarcus Aldridge，Yahoo體育的
Adrian Wojnarowski如此說：
In a perfect scenario, the Spurs have a full understanding of the futures of
[Tim] Duncan, [Manu] Ginobili and Danny Green when they walk into a 12:01
a.m. ET meeting on July 1 with Leonard and his agent, Brian Elfus, in Los
Angeles. The Spurs will offer Leonard a full maximum contract extension, get
a commitment and turn themselves toward prying Aldridge back to his Texas
roots.
在一個完美的情況之下，馬刺會在充分理解Duncan、Ginobili和Danny Green的未來之
後，於七月一日12:01 a.m. ET在洛杉磯和上述幾人一同會見Leonard與他的經紀人
Brian Elfun。馬刺會提交給Leonard一份頂薪續約，得到首肯，並轉而獵取Aldridge
以使他回歸德州的根。
For now, there's no scenario where Leonard plans to pursue offer sheets on
the market, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.
聯盟裡的消息來源告訴Yahoo體育現在已經沒有Leonard打算去追求市場上的提價的情況了
。
Leonard wants to be a Spur, and the Spurs are expected to come calling on
July 1 with the max offer that they resisted delivering Leonard in the
preseason, a move born out of preserving cap space to bring on a star free
agent this summer.
Leonard想要當一名馬刺球員，且馬刺被預期將在七月一日提出他們季前不願給出的頂薪
，此一選擇乃是希望保留資金空間以便在今年夏天簽下一名明星自由球員。
The Spurs can't be sure how they'll proceed on July 1 until they know
Duncan's and Ginobili's plans. Whatever they decide, the possibility of
pursuing Aldridge on the recruiting trail could offer the Spurs the chance to
do the only thing that they've never done in the NBA: Lure an All-Star free
agent in his prime, beat New York and Los Angeles somewhere besides the
basketball court.
馬刺在七月一日知道Duncan和Ginobili的計劃之前都不能確定他們要如何繼續。不管他們
決定如何，追求Aldridge的招募可能會給予馬刺他們在NBA唯一沒做過的事情的機會：吸
引一名全明星自由球員的注意，在籃球場之外打敗紐約和洛杉磯。
Adding Aldridge, who turns 30 in July, would obviously extend the Spurs'
championship window. It would also mean he'd be going back on his word -- the
four-time All-Star said last summer that he definitely intended to sign a
five-year deal in 2015 and wanted to become the best Blazer of all-time.
如果加上將在七月達到三十歲的Aldridge，這顯然會提升馬刺的奪冠可能，這麼做也表示
他將違反他說過的話─這位四次全明星去年夏天說過他肯定會想要在2015簽一個五年約，
且希望成為史上最佳的拓荒者球員。
The Oregonian's Jason Quick, however, called Aldridge fickle, moody and
unpredictable when reporting that at least one Blazer thought there was a
50-50 chance he'd leave. While he's beloved in Portland and has a great
running mate in Damian Lillard, San Antonio would offer him a chance to play
in his home state, under Gregg Popovich, alongside Leonard, Tony Parker,
great role players and possibly Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili, depending on if
they want to make another run. There have been rumors about this for a long
while, and he'd be crazy not to at least consider it.
然而Oregonian的Jason Quick則在報導中說至少一名拓荒者球員認為他有五成機率離開，
並稱Aldridge多變、喜怒無常且難以預測。儘管他被波特蘭所喜愛且有著長年的優秀搭檔
Damiam Lillard，聖安東尼奧會給予他在家鄉、在Gregg Popovich底下、與Leonard、
Tony Parker和優秀的角色球員且可能包含Tim Duncan和Manu Ginobili並肩打球的機會，
後者取決於他們是否還要繼續打。這件事已經傳出謠言好一陣子了，如果他不考慮一下這
一個選項的話, 那他一定是瘋了。
The funny thing is imagining Leonard playing the role of recruiter. He's the
quietest guy in the league, and it's incredibly difficult to picture him
trying to convince any free agent to do anything. Fortunately for the Spurs,
his play is doing the talking for them.
最好笑的事情是想像Leonard擔任招聘者的身分。他是聯盟最安靜的人，且非常難以想像
他試圖說服任何自由球員去做任何事情。對馬刺來說幸運的是，他正在用表現來說服他們
。
短評或心得：
翻譯不好請見諒(感謝幾位大大的協助)。
看來馬刺肯定要用頂薪簽可愛了，不知道AGG到底會去哪裡。
