Los Angeles Lakers Looking at Their Options This Offseason
洛杉矶湖人队这个夏天正在寻找他们可选择的东西
Not much is going on in Lakerland this offseason, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they are doomed for another run at the NBA Finals.
在休赛期间湖人队似乎又是碌碌无为，但对于湖人队来说这并不是在总决赛之后的又一次厄运。
As expected, Trevor Ariza exercised his contract option for next season. Ariza has proved this past season that he can run in the triangle offense, and they need him for his great defense. He is a good slasher—which will be key to his scoring success next season when he plays with Andrew Bynum and Pau Gasol.
正如所料，阿里扎选择履行接下来的合同，下赛季继续待在湖人。阿里扎已经证明了他很适合三角进攻，他们需要他的强悍的防守。他也是个好的进攻手，下赛季和安猪，加索尔一起打球他会成为一个关键的进攻点。
With defensive players busy trying to contain those two, Ariza can easily make a name for himself on the court.
当对方的防守球员专注于那两个时，阿里扎在场上能轻松的为自己正名。
Also, as expected, Chris Mihm exercised his contract option for next season. It would have been foolish not to. After all, who wouldn't like to make $2.5 million dollars for sitting on a bench?
也正如我们期望的，米姆也选择行使他的合同下赛季还留在湖人。不行使合同才是愚蠢的，毕竟谁不想拿250万美元坐在板凳上？
But lets not be too hard on Mihm. In case you have forgotten, before the ankle injury in the '05-06 season, he was averaging a decent 10.2 PPG to go along with 6.3 RPG. He's got a good hook on him and has shown that he can step out and shoot a nice mid-range jump shot.
但是对于米姆我们不能奢求太多，以防你们都忘了，在他踝关节受伤之前的05-06赛季，他平均每场能拿下10.2分6.3个篮板。他有一手出色的勾手，而且还能拉出来中投。
He hasn't been the same since the injury, but he did have successful ankle surgery back in January, and came back in time to get his few minutes of fame in the NBA Finals. Mihm's minutes obviously wont be the same, but he's a good enough backup for Bynum and Gasol.
但自从受伤后他就再没有恢复到原来的水准，但是在1月份他在踝关节手术后成功回到赛场，并且在总决赛中他还得到了几分钟的上场时间。米姆的真实水准显然不是这样的，但他会是安猪和加索尔很好的替补。
Ronny Turiaf will be coming back as a Golden State Warrior next season and it's sad to see him go. He was without a doubt the most energetic player on the Lakers roster, and he brought a spark off the bench that the crowd won't soon forget.
屠夫下赛季回来时他已经是勇士的人了，看到他离开真的很难受。毫无疑问他是湖人花名册上最有活力的球员，他在替补席上为我们带来了激情，我们不会忘记他的。
But as far as NBA Economics 101 is concerned, letting him go was the correct choice to make.
但是根据NBA经济学长远来看，让他走是一个正确的选择。
Golden State offered him a very large contract that the Lakers simply couldn't match. They are already paying luxury taxes up the wazoo. Matching that four-year, $17 million dollar contract would not only make those worse—but also force them to forfeit any hopes of re-signing Sasha Vujacic.
金州勇士为他提供了一个大合同而湖人又无法匹配。他们已经交了奢侈税了，如果再去匹配四年1700万的合同不尽会使那更糟，而且会让迫使他们放弃任何签下沙沙的希望。
With that kind of contract, the Warriors are looking to give Turiaf a much larger role and the Lakers can't do that. So long, Ronny, and good luck on your new team.
从那合同来看，勇士正寻思着给屠夫一个更好的角色，但是湖人不能。所以，鲁尼，祝你好运！！！！！
As long as I brought up Vujacic, lets talk about him next. In a contract season, Vujacic was able to put up career-bests in points at 8.8 PPG, while shooting 43.7 percent from the three-point line.
刚刚我提到了沙沙，那我们接下来就讨论一下他。在合约年里，沙沙打出了职业生涯最好的一个赛季，场均8.8分，而且三分球命中率高达43.7%。
But the Lakers learned quickly from their Luke Walton mistake, and didn't take any chances by offering Sasha a pathetic one-year qualifying offer of $2.6 Million.
但是湖人很快从卢克-沃顿那里得到了教训，他们并没有采取任何机会去为沙沙提供一年260万的合同。
How dare they insult "The Machine" with this? Who do they think they are? Sasha is looking for a contract like his buddy Luke, but Lakers are timid to give him something like that.
他们怎么能这么对待“投篮机器”呢？他们认为他们是谁？沙沙只是想像他的队友卢克那样获得一份合同，但是湖人队却如此胆小而不敢给他相同的合同。
I do expect the Lakers and Vujacic to come to an agreement soon. He recently changed his agent, which is only delaying communications. Also, it doesn't look like he can catch a break like his good pal Ronny.
我是多么期望湖人和沙沙能够尽快达成一份协议。他最近换了他的经纪人，这只会拖延他们的谈判。而且看起来他并不能像他的好友屠夫那样获得一份大合同。
What is the key to getting Sasha back in a Laker uniform next season? More money, more money, more money—and a few more years won't hurt.
如何才能让沙沙下个赛季继续回到湖人呢？更多的钱，更多的钱，更多的钱—还有别再受伤。
Sasha is valuable to the Lakers. He is a good defender who knows how to annoy players. Not to mention that killer three-pointer that is becoming more consistent every year.
沙沙对于湖人是很有价值的。他是一个好的防守球员，知道怎么去扰乱对手。更不要说现在三分球杀手的基础每年都变得越来越扎实了。
The Lakers already announced that they will not be bringing back Ira Newble. Who's that, you say? Don't worry about it.
湖人早就宣布过了，他们不会留下纽贝尔。你问那是谁？不用担心那个。
However, the signing of DJ Mbenga is sort of interesting. Mbenga wasn't much. He was basically signed to fill the roster, and if they re-sign him for another season, it will be for the same reason.
不过签下姆鹏加倒是蛮有趣的。他并不贵。他只是为了填补花名册的，如果他们再跟他签一个赛季的话，那原因还是这个。
In the coming months, Lakers have a decision to make on Coby Karl. They have a team contract option that they can decide to use.
在接下来的几个月，湖人还将决定是否留下科比-卡尔。他们有很多合同选择要决定是否施行。
Karl played the bench warmer role last season but the crowd loved him. They cheered him on and chanted his name. They want him to succeed, and he's not a bad basketball player.
卡尔上个赛季是一个把板凳坐穿的球员，但是大伙都很喜欢他。他们为他欢呼，呼喊着他的名字。他们都希望他能成功，他不是个很糟糕的球员。
He's got potential—but then again so did Kwame Brown. We all know how that turned out. He's not a bad player to invest some money into, and he can come in off the bench at times and get the crowd pumped up.
他有潜力，但很可能又是一个夸梅-布朗。我们都知道那是怎么发生的。他不是一个糟糕的球员，可以投进去一些钱，他随时可以从板凳上进入比赛，也能为队员加油。
The Lakers have a couple second-round draft choices to decide on as well—Joe Crawford and Sun Yue. 10 Players are guaranteed a contract next season. If Vujacic, Mbenga, and Karl return, then the Lakers could still sign these two for a full 15-man roster. Yue and Crawford are great prospects, so it will be interesting to see the results of that.
湖人也有很多第二轮选秀球员，像克劳福德和孙悦。下赛季有10名球员是在合同中的。如果沙沙，姆鹏加和卡尔也回来，湖人仍然可以签下这俩球员，正好凑足15人大名单。孙悦和克劳福德有很好的前景，看看这样的结果将会很有趣。
Trade rumors haven't been circulating around the Lakers much this off-season, except in the case of Ron Artest. He has been in Laker trade rumors for so long that most people are expecting nothing to happen.
这个淡季交易的留言并没有太多围绕湖人的，除了阿泰那个。他被卷进湖人的交易已经很久了，但很多人都希望什么都不会发生。
You always hear, "Kobe Bryant and Artest are great friends. They will be able to work together. Artest will give the Lakers the lock-down defense they need at the forward position." While I'm not arguing that, I'm not exactly condoning a trade to the Lakers for a few reasons.
你或许经常听到，“科比和阿泰是很好的朋友，他们在一起将会合作的很愉快。阿泰将会给湖人提供在小前锋位置上的强悍的防守。”我不是在争论这个，我并不纵容湖人的这个交易有这几个原因。
Yeah, I'm going to say it—he's a loose cannon. It seems like he flip-flops everyday on his status with the Sacramento Kings. Sometimes he wants to be a King for life and other times he wants to be traded.
是的，我在说—他是一个散漫的加农炮。似乎他在国王的每一天的态度都会发生大转变。有时候他说他愿意一生都为国王效力，有时候他又想被交易。
The reason why he got traded out of Chicago and Indiana is going to be the reason why he could be traded out of Sacramento. He has a bad reputation.
他为什么会被交易出芝加哥和印第安纳的原因正是他为什么会被交易出国王的原因。他有一个坏的声誉。
If they want to get Artest, they will have to take on Kenny Thomas's ridiculous contract, and they will have to give up Lamar Odom. It doesn't look like Mitch can put together another Gasol miracle in this situation.
如果他们想得到阿泰，他们就必须接受肯尼-托马斯的荒谬的合同，他们还必须放弃奥多姆。这种情形看起来似乎米奇并没有能力能够再把他和加索尔合在一起。
Artest is a great player, shooter, and defender—but he's not worth the investment. Especially with what the Lakers have.
阿泰是个伟大的球员，射手和防守者，但是他并不值这个价。尽管湖人能提供这个价。
Odom is streaky, but he can dribble with the best of them and works great in the triangle offense with Gasol and Bryant backing him up. Throw Bynum into the mix, and move Odom back to his natural position of small forward, and I see an even better Laker team.
奥多姆是不稳定，但是他是他们当中控球最好的，他和加索尔在三角进攻中配合非常好，科比也支持他。当安猪打中锋，将奥多姆移到他最熟悉的小前锋位置上，我们可以看到一支更好的湖人队。
The Lakers don't need to make drastic changes.
湖人队并不需要多大的改变。
They just made it to the NBA Finals.
他们已经打进了NBA总决赛
As the old saying goes, "Sometimes the best trades are the ones you don't make."
正如古语有云，“有时候最好的交易就是什么也不交易。”
Don't mess with the old sayings.
别怀疑这些古语。
