Following the NBA's 2003-04 season, LeBron James' coming out
pro party, the Cavaliers had the right to exercise an option
on Carlos Boozer. The Duke forward had been the 37th pick in
the '02 draft, and was locked into a relatively scrawny salary
(600G) for someone who'd just averaged 15.5 points and 11.4
rebounds as a soph.
在2003-04年季, LBJ的首個職業球季後, 騎士擁有Carlos Boozer的
選擇權, 這位杜克大學的前鋒在02年選秀以37順位被選上, 薪水被限
制在以一名第二年就獲得15.5分、11.4籃板的球員來說顯然有點少的
60萬
The Cavs finished 37-45 that year, a lotto team despite the
advent of the high school kid dubbed The Chosen One, who still
smelled like milk. Cleveland was hardly a desired destination
of flashy free agents.In an effort to do right by Boozer (the
first teammate who didn't want to play with LeBron) and send
a message to prime time players throughout the league, Gordon
Gund, an honors' owner, did the unthinkable; he took an agent
and his client at their word.
當年騎士以37-45結束賽季, 儘管被稱為秋森萬-但仍乳臭未乾-的高中
生降臨, 他們仍然是一支樂透球隊。騎士通常不是優秀自由球員的目
的地, 為了要留下Boozer(第一個不想跟LBJ打球的隊友)並給聯盟其他
優秀球員傳遞訊息, 老板Gordon Gund作了不可思議的事情
