自由球員波格因左腳傷勢結束短暫的騎士生涯,重返自由市場引起數隻具有季後賽實力的隊
Four teams are reportedly interested in Bogut: the Boston Celtics, San Antonio S
據稱共有四隊有興趣: 賽爾提克,馬刺,爵士,公鹿。
Each team boasts an Australian national on their roster - Aron Baynes in Boston,
這四隊都有澳洲籍球員在陣中。
But beyond the Down Under connections,
each team has other reasons to take a shot on the 32-year-old veteran.
扣掉同鄉球員吸引的潛在因素,每隊都有網羅這位32歲老將的理由。
The Spurs have been a refuge for declining big men in recent years, including Pa
馬刺近年來成為退化高個子球員的收容所,包括大加索 大衛西 大衛李,管理層也偏好國際
爵士擁有多名國際球員,2003-2005時爵士非常關注波格。
波格自2005以狀元身分為公鹿效力七年。
Most intriguing, however, are the Celtics, who struggled mightily with rebounding last season. Al Horford often played out of position as an undersized center, so adding an interior defender with a proven acumen for pounding the glass like Bogut would serve as a fitting complementary piece, even if it's just for short spurts off the bench.
最妙的買家是賽爾提克,他們上季在爭搶籃板上表現的十分掙扎。內線主力霍福德是一名矮內線,若加上健康的波格幫助護筐防守,就算從板凳出發少少的時間,依然很有幫助。
Bogut has averaged 10 points, 8.9 rebounds, 2.3 assists, and 1.6 blocks in his career. He's also missed 277 out of 722 possible regular-season games since the start of the 2008-09 season, and hasn't averaged more than 27 minutes since 2010-11, so expectations should be held in check until Bogut proves he can stay on the court.
波格生涯平均10分8.9板2.3助1.6鍋,自從08-09賽季後缺席了277場例行賽(於722場內),自從10-11賽季後場均時間不超過27分鐘,波格需要證明的是他的健康而非實力。
