Knicks, Nets, Mavs, Hornets Could Conceivably Be Interested In Kobe

The New York Knicks, Brooklyn Nets, Dallas Mavericks and possibly Charlotte
Hornets are all teams that could be interested in Kobe Bryant, according to
ESPN's Chad Ford.
根據ESPN專家Chad Ford報導
尼克、籃網、小牛、甚至黃蜂，都有可能是湖人交易老大的談判對象。
The Los Angeles Lakers lost Julius Randle for the entire season on opening
night and are expected to struggle to make the playoffs. The Lakers also get
to keep their 2015 first round pick if it is in the top-5.
湖人在開幕戰失去了 Julius Randle，看來也很難進季後賽了。
不過這樣湖人便能保留他們在2015年的首輪選秀權，如果是前五順位的話。
(註：湖人今年的首輪選秀權已經交易掉了(在Nash的交易中給了太陽)，
但帶有前五順位保護，湖人如果擺爛的話，就可以保住這個選秀權。)
The Knicks are an especially interesting possibility due to his connection to
Phil Jackson, Derek Fisher and Carmelo Anthony.
看起來尼克是最有可能的，因為紐約有禪師、老漁，還有甜瓜。
The Knicks could include young players like Iman Shumpert and/or Tim Hardaway
Jr., along with a 2015 first rounder and they also have the expiring
contracts of Amar'e Stoudemire and Andrea Bargnani.
所以尼克可以嘗試這樣做...
送出 Iman Shumpert + Tim Hardaway Jr. 搭配2015首輪選秀，
加上 Amare Stoudemire 和 Andrea Bargnani 的到期合約。
"I don't think Mitch has much choice but to find ways to lose," one GM told
ESPN. "They're going to be bad anyway. You don't want to be just good enough
that you lose the pick and still miss the playoffs. I don't think they have
the assets to get good enough to make the playoffs and I don't think they
have the [expletive] to trade Kobe. It's paradoxical, but right now losing
seems like the only way to really get better."
一位球隊GM告訴ESPN說，Mitch Kupchak 已經沒有辦法扭轉球隊，
只能靠囤積戰敗場次。湖人殺不進季後賽，當然也不會想交易Kobe，
但現在情況是進退維谷，有失才有得。
Bryant's contract expires after the 15-16 NBA season.
老大合約到15-16賽季後。
