鵜鶘不願和Zion簽5年有全額保障的頂薪長約
From what I have been told, the Pelicans, at this point, are not willing to offe
r a full five-year guaranteed deal. And a lot of it is flowing down from ownersh
ip. Gayle Benson, the owner, is also the owner of the New Orleans Saints. And I
have been told they’re going to take a football-style, Saints-style mentality w
ith this contract negotiation. They will offer him a huge contract but will not
guarantee all of it.
據ESPN記者Brian Windhorst報導，據我所得到的消息是，鵜鶘並不願意給Zion一份五年有
全額保障的頂薪長約。老闆娘Gayle Benson有一些想法，她是紐奧良聖徒隊的老闆，她準備
和Zion續約談判的時候，秉持著聖徒風格的心態來進行談判。他們會給他提供一份大約，但
不是全額保障。
If Zion accepts those terms, he still protects himself, and maybe gets $100-plus
million guaranteed, he signs, everything’s fine. If he doesn’t sign and wants
the full guarantee, we could have some drama into the fall.
如果Zion決定接受這些條款，那麼仍然有保障部分，也許是1億美元左右。如果是這樣的話
，一切好談，如果他不簽這樣的約，而是饞一份全額保障的話，那麼秋天的時候我們會看到
一些戲劇性的事情。

NFL球隊在一般情況下，即便是球隊球星所簽的合約都不會是全額保障，合約中不受保障的
部分會有各種觸發條款，比如說球員身體指標，比賽數據、出場數、球隊戰績均會被寫入合
約。
