Paul George Says Free-Agency Discussion with Kawhi Leonard Is 'Between Us'
Paul George說跟與Kawhi Leonard討論FA的內容只"限於他們兩個知道"
Toronto Raptors star Kawhi Leonard can opt out of his contract and hit free
agency this summer. Apparently, he reached out to a peer who was in a similar
situation last year to get his insight.
多倫多暴龍明星Kawhi Leonard在今年夏天可以選擇跳出合約，成為FA。很顯然地，他找了
另外一個之前有過跟他情況類似的球員，想聽一下他的意見。
Oklahoma City Thunder star Paul George said Friday he had spoken with
Leonard. George declined to elaborate on what was said, telling reporters,
"That's between us," per TSN's Josh Lewenberg.
根據TSN記者Josh Lewenberg，Paul George星期五的時候說他有跟Leonard聊過，但是
George拒絕透露詳細的內容，跟記者說，「那只限於我跟他兩個知道。」
Nobody can say George was guilty of tampering because the Thunder have almost
no shot of landing Leonard in free agency. Oklahoma City is set to be almost
$39.6 million over the salary cap, so it won't be making any big moves over
the summer.
沒有人可以說George有違規招募的嫌疑，因為雷霆今年夏天幾乎是沒機會得到Leonard的。
雷霆目前超過薪資帽3960萬鎂，所以今年夏天是不會作什麼大動作的。
Leonard couldn't have looked toward a better confidant since George was
essentially in the same shoes.
因為George之前幾乎跟Leonard現在是一模一樣的狀況，George對Leonard來說是不二人
選。
The Thunder acquired him in a trade from the Indiana Pacers when he was a
year away from free agency. Many wondered if George would effectively be a
one-year rental for OKC before he signed with the Los Angeles Lakers.
Instead, he stayed with the Thunder, signing a four-year, $136.9 million
extension.
雷霆是在PG跟溜馬合約還有一年成為FA之前交易過來的，那時很多人懷疑雷霆這樣的一年
"租約"，之後他可能跟湖人簽約的狀況下，會不會在雷霆有有效率的表現。然而，他在那
之後選擇留下，續了4年1億3690萬的約。
George told Bleacher Report's Master Tesfatsion he had envisioned going to
Los Angeles at one time but discovered he felt comfortable in Oklahoma City
and wanted to remain there.
George跟BR記者說他曾經有認為自己會去湖人，但是後來發現在雷霆更舒適，決定留在雷
霆。
Perhaps that's the message he conveyed to Leonard.
或許那也可能是他跟Leonard講的內容。
Like George, Leonard is a native of Southern California, and Sporting News'
Sean Deveney reported the Los Angeles Clippers have "confidence that they
could lure Leonard into the blue-and-red next summer."
就跟George一樣，Leonard也是出身南加州，而根據Sporting News記者Sean Deveney報
導，快艇"很有信心，會在今年夏天把Leonard帶到快艇"。
The Clippers are projected to have almost $59.7 million in cap space, which
is more than enough to give Leonard a max deal and potentially add another
marquee free agent as well.
快艇預計會有5970萬鎂的薪資空間，足夠給Leonard頂約外，還有一些空間可以找其他不錯
的FA。
But Leonard may be enjoying Toronto more than he imagined when he first
arrived from the San Antonio Spurs. Let's not forgot ESPN.com's Chris Haynes
reported last July the two-time Defensive Player of the Year had "no desire"
to play for the Raptors.
但是，Leonard現在可能比他之前剛被交易到暴龍前所預想的還要喜歡多倫多。不要忘了
ESPN記者Chris Haynes去年七月報導，這兩屆年度防守球員曾說"沒有意願為暴龍打球"。
If Leonard ends up spurning a Los Angeles franchise just as George did,
Raptors fans may owe a debt of gratitude to a player they once considered a
conference rival.
如果Leonard最後就跟George一樣也沒加入洛杉磯的球隊的話，暴龍粉可能要感激一下這一
度被他們視為分區敵人的George了。

可以追殺起來了！！
