※ 引述《netsfan (该低调了)》之铭言： : By FRED KERBER : http://www.nypost.com/sports/nets/25698.htm : July 1, 2005 -- When he was laboring in the NBA's Land of the Lost — a/k/a : Vancouver — Shareef Abdur-Rahim struck up a close working relationship with : an assistant on coach Brian Hill's staff. : That assistant was named Lawrence Frank. 当Shareef Abdur-Rahim在NBA的失落国度--温哥华 努力干活之际，他跟Brian Hill 教练团中的一名助理建立起相当紧密的合作关系。那名助理名叫Lawrence Frank. : According to Abdur-Rahim's attorney, that friendship between the player and : the man who's now the Nets' head coach could prove invaluable to the Nets on : the free-agent market. : "That could be a huge factor," Aaron Goodwin, who last year tried to broker a : trade to get Abdur-Rahim from Portland to the Nets, said yesterday. "I would : say the Nets' chances [of signing him] are good. He likes the Nets. A year : ago we tried like heck to get something done." 根据Rahim的经纪人表示，Rahim跟已经身为篮网总教练的Frank之间的往日情谊， 对正在自由球员市场中打滚的篮网来说可能将会是无价之宝。"这很有可能会影响 Rahim最後的决定,"去年曾努力安排将Rahim从波特兰送往篮网的Aaron Goodwin表示 "我认为篮网十分有可能签下他。他喜欢篮网。一年前我们可是拼死想促成这件事." : Abdur-Rahim is one of the prized targets for the Nets as free-agent : negotiations officially opened at 12:01 a.m. today. With the moratorium in : place over ratification of the new collective-bargaining agreement, teams : will not be able to sign free agents for three weeks. 当自由球员市场於12:01分正式开市後，Rahim就一直是篮网最看重的目标之一。 在新的CBA生效之前，球队必须在三周後才能与自由球员签下合约。 : After drafting swingman Antoine Wright, who heads an impressive summer league : roster that starts play in Las Vegas on Wednesday, the Nets want to address : their size need through free agency. Abdur-Rahim, Donyell Marshall and : Stromile Swift are the top three on the Nets' wish list. : "We are going to address our frontcourt issues as quickly as we can," said : team president Rod Thorn. 篮网在选进摇摆人Antoine Wright（目前在拉斯维加斯开打的夏季联盟中挂头牌， 阵容堪称一时之选。）之後，篮网希望能够透过签下自由球员来解决阵容中没有 高度的烦恼。Rahim, Marshall, Swift是篮网的前三大目标。"我们将尽快解决我们 前场的问题"球队总裁Rod Thorn表示。 : Abdur-Rahim, also expected to be courted by the Spurs, Heat, Wizards and : Knicks, made $14.6 million last season but will take a massive cut. He wants : a winning situation — his nine seasons have produced a 216-492 record (.305) : despite career averages of 19.8 points and 8.1 rebounds. The only winning he : has known was a 17-15 stint with Portland after an in-season trade from : Atlanta. 马刺、热火、巫师、尼克都对Rahim有兴趣。Rahim上季年薪为一千四百六十万美金， 但愿意为了成为赢家而大幅降薪。虽然生涯平均有19.8分及8.1篮板，但球队战绩 总和却是216胜492败，胜率仅有三成零五。唯一胜率过半的时刻，是他在季中从亚特兰大 被交易到波特兰之时，当时战绩17胜15败。 : The Nets have the $4.9 million mid-level exception for teams over the salary : cap and another $4.9 million trade exception acquired in the Kerry Kittles : deal. That trade exception, desirable because teams over the cap need not : take a player, must be used by July 29, one year from the Kittles trade. : And the Nets, who established depth as a priority, will look beyond power : forwards. Even with Jacque Vaughn back, the Nets want to add depth at point : guard. They could consider Miami's Keyon Dooling, who'll opt out of the last : year of his contract ($807,506). Another to look at is Milt Palacio. Utah : swingman Raja Bell also is on the depth wish list. 篮网手上的筹码有490万的中产阶级条款，以及交易Kittles後拿到的490万trade exception. 後者对於超过薪资上限的球队十分具有吸引力，因为无须再接收一名 球员即可获得。但此trade exception需在Kittles被交易一年内使用，也就是需在 7/29之前使用。而除了大前锋之外，篮网也为了增添板凳深度而努力。虽然Vaughn 下一季会归队，篮网依然希望能够招募一号位置的人手。目前考虑的有刚跳脱最後一年 合约的Dooling以及Milt Palacio. 为了增加板凳深度，摇摆人Raja Bell也在名单之列。 : "We've targeted since the offseason guys that we think can help us get back : to the elite level we were at," said Frank. "We need to continue to bolster : our depth. It's not about necessarily where you're not happy with what you : have. But we need to get more or better. Where we've consistently gotten hurt : is ... playing Jason [Kidd], Vince [Carter] an unbelievable amount of : minutes." "一休季我们就与许多我们认为可以帮助篮网重返荣耀的球员们接洽。"Frank说， "我们需要继续加深球队阵容。不是说我们不满意现有阵容，而是我们必须变的更好。 如果一直让Jason跟Vince超时上场最终将伤害到我们自己。" : The Nets formed their summer roster with two guys they truly felt would be : drafted, Clemson forward Sharrod Ford and Florida guard Anthony Roberson. : They landed experienced NBA guys with 6-foot-11 Ken Johnson, late of Miami, : and 6-10 journeyman Jelani McCoy. Other familiar names are Awvee Storey, with : the Nets last year, and 6-7 Sam Clancy, an '02 Sixer draft pick. 篮网夏季联盟的阵容中有两名深信自己在选秀日当天会雀屏中选的球员：来自 Clemson的前锋Sharrod Ford以及Florida的後卫Anthony Roberson。阵中还有 经历过NBA的角色，像是6"11的Ken Johnson及6"10的Jelani McCoy。其他较为人 熟悉的有去年呆过篮网的Awvee Storney及2002年被七六人选中的6"7新人Sam Clancy. -- 翻完怎麽觉得好像可以看到Rahim身披篮网球衣啦... --
