部分教練團成員施壓Pelinka交易龜龜
It appears that the Lakers at least tried to trade Westbrook before the deadline
despite his $44 million per year supermax contract that severely limits Rob Pel
inka’s options of doing so. A potential deal between the Lakers and Rockets tha
t would have sent John Wall to L.A. in return reached a stalemate when the Laker
s would not include their 2027 first-round pick.
看起來湖人隊至少試圖在截止日期前交易龜龜,儘管他每年 4400 萬美元的頂薪合約嚴重限
制了Pelinka這樣做的選擇。湖人隊和火箭隊之間可能達成的一項交易為將牆哥送去洛杉磯
,但最終卻陷入了僵局,因為湖人隊不願意出2027年的首輪選秀權。
So Westbrook remains a Laker for now, but not for lack of trying. Including from
some members of the coaching staff, who went to Pelinka and pressured him to fi
nd a trade that would get rid of the Southern California native, according to Bi
ll Oram of The Athletic:
所以龜龜現在仍然是湖人隊的一員,但不是因為缺乏嘗試。根據The Athletic的Bill Oram
的說法,包括來自教練團的一些成員,他們去找Pelinka並迫使他找到一項可以擺脫這位南
加州當地人的交易:
For starters, sources said that despite some pressure from members of the coachi
ng staff, the Lakers never gained traction on talks about a Russell Westbrook tr
ade, leaving top basketball executive Rob Pelinka with room to operate only arou
nd the margins of the trade market.
首先,消息人士稱,儘管教練團成員施加了一些壓力,但湖人隊從未在關於龜龜交易的談判
中獲得關注,這讓籃球高管Pelinka只能在交易市場的邊緣進行操作。
That nugget is both shocking on its face and kind of unsurprising given the rece
nt obvious toxicity between Westbrook and the Lakers’ coaches. It’s also not h
ard to guess which coach may have felt that way:
考慮到最近龜龜和湖人隊教練之間明顯的不和,這個消息在表面上既令人震驚,但也不足為
奇。也不難猜測哪位教練可能有這種感覺:

Frank Vogel被Bill Oram詢問是否存在龜龜在明天之後不在隊中的情況時表示:如果有辦法
提升我們的球隊,我們就會提升我們的球隊。關於交易截止日期我沒有其他要說的。
