The Cleveland Cavaliers are continuing to reshape their roster for the 2018-19
season in the wake of LeBron James leaving the team for the second time in fr
ee agency. Reportedly, every player on the roster, with the exception of top p
ick Collin Sexton, is a candidate to be moved.
騎士在LeBron James第二次從自由市場離開後，繼續打造他們的新陣容，根據報導，除了
Collin Sexton之外，其他人都是可以動的。
“But never shy about making deals, the Cavaliers are rumored to still be inte
rested in Whiteside,” wrote Shofner.
根據熱火記者Michael Shofner透露，騎士仍然對白邊有興趣。
“The rumored potential deal would send Whiteside to Cleveland in exchange for
Tristan Thompson and Kyle Korver.
潛在的交易可能是白邊換KK+TT。
While Thompson hasn’t been mentioned in any possible trades recently, the 37-
year-old Korver is a prime candidate to be dealt. Some speculation indicates t
hat the Cavaliers have been seeking a first-round pick for the veteran sharpsh
ooter.
在騎士最近的交易傳聞裡，TT還沒有被提及，但KK則已經被兜售好一陣子，騎士尋求用他
換到一個首輪選秀權。
For the Cavs, Thompson represents a player who’s a rebounding machine. Howeve
r, his limited production on offense often makes him a one-dimensional player
that they’re paying a great deal of money. He’ll make just under $17.5 milli
on for this season and slightly more than $18.5 million next year.
TT對於騎士就是一名籃板機器，然而他進攻端的發揮有限，這讓他成為功能單一的球員，
新賽季他的薪水略低於17.5M，再下賽季略高於18.5M。
In the case of Korver, the luxury of having his talents on a team that’s unde
rgoing a rebuilding project don’t mesh with their philosophy of trying to get
younger. The 37-year-old veteran will be beginning his 16th season in the lea
gue and is scheduled to make slightly more than $15 million over the next two
years. All of these factors make him expendable.
KK方面，在一支需要繳豪華稅的重建球隊裡，他不符合球隊年輕化的理念，且未來兩年還
有比15M多一點的合約，這些原因讓他成為可交易籌碼。
Whiteside and the Heat have been at odds for much of the last year, with the 7
-footer complaining about limited playing time and the team citing his lack of
consistency on the court. Since the Heat’s 2017-18 season ended in the a fir
st-round playoff loss, Whiteside has been seen as a player the Heat desperatel
y want to trade.
白邊在去年大部分時間裡就和熱火有分歧，他總是抱怨出場時間太少，且他融入不進球隊
的球風，從上賽季第一輪被淘汰後，熱火就一直試圖兜售白邊。
One of the chief reasons for Miami’s push relates to the amount of money that
he’s set to make over the next two seasons. For the upcoming campaign, he’s
set to make $24.4 million, and is due nearly $27.1 million in 2019-20.
另外還有他龐大的薪資，還有兩年分別是24.4M和27.1M。
When he’s motivated, Whiteside can be a force who can deliver a double-double
virtually every night and also provide a shot-blocking presence. The problem
is that such a mindset isn’t always evident, which has been the source of the
Heat’s frustration.
當他有動力時，可以每晚繳出雙十且送出一定的火鍋，但問題在他的心態，這是讓熱火失
望的原因。
