B.Windhorst的怪怪報導

[arenasis (Mr.Vengeance)]

今天上午Plain Dealer的Windhorst發表報導，

    CLEVELAND -- There was a point in their long-term planning that the
Cavaliers thought the days leading up to next week's trading deadline
would be filled with drama and haggling.It hasn't played out that way.

    Due to both positive and negative factors, it appears as if this year
the team will be passing on the event. Their strong first half plus a
series of injuries have limited their options and desires.

    Monday left the Cavs dealing with another injury as an MRI revealed
starting shooting guard Sasha Pavlovic had suffered the worst of all
ankle injuries, the high ankle sprain. It will keep him out 4-6 weeks.

    With Delonte West and Tarence Kinsey out and a roster spot being
occupied by Eric Snow, the team is essentially down four guards at the
moment. Another, Trey Johnson, is on a 10-day contract.

    Wally Szczerbiak, once their largest trade chip with his $13 million
expiring contract, has now become a vital part of the team. He will start
in Pavlovic's place in Indianapolis against the Pacers on Tuesday.

    Because of all this, the vibe around the rest of the NBA is the Cavs
are going to follow through with their plans to stand mostly pat.

    This echoes the hints the teams has been dropping for weeks, but the
injury situation seems to nearly cement it. They will continue to make
calls and they are leaving options open. For example, they have postponed
an appointment with a league-approved doctor to evaluate Snow's disability
retirement claim just in case they want to use him in a trade.

    However, with few excess parts and concerns about altering the chemistry,
both General Manager Danny Ferry and coach Mike Brown are sending out all
kinds of signs they do not intend to make a major deal and likely none at
all.

    Sources around the NBA suggest the Cavaliers are more likely to
patiently wait for the return of Delonte West and trust in the current
roster than look for a quick fix at the trade deadline.

（後略）

    本文的主旨是基於Pavlovic、West與Kinsey的受傷，原先被預設主要交易籌碼的
Wally突然變得很吃重。所以騎士可能保持現狀，Brown教頭與費禿釋出一切訊息表示
球隊不會作重型交易，甚或不交易。

    然而這篇文章最後更新是台灣時間上午11:00，跟我稍早看到的不同，顯然對騎士
內部消息靈通的BW，在這幾個小時裡更改了新聞內容。

    原本段落記述著：騎士可能把著眼點放在長人，這是眾所皆知的共識，但也不排
除尋找另一個搖擺人強化後場破壞力，目標是公鹿隊R.Jefferson。舊內容中提到一個
這幾週來騎士等待的關鍵要素－－有某些球隊開始陷入絕望當中，如沒有Redd（整季
報銷）、Bogut（八週）的公鹿，以及沒有Big AL的灰狼。前者可能答應送走不便宜的
Jefferson，後者會甘願點送走Mike Miller。

    就算有這些內容也只是rumor，一點騎士制服組具體的動向都沒有，除了Jefferson
以外亦未出現網友與媒體預測之外的新選項，那麼，BW為什麼要特別編修這篇報導，
刪除這些小rumor再強調騎士也可能不作交易（更何況「啥都不作」也不是沒人提過）
？我自己想，或許他不小心寫出接近事實核心的東西了吧，who knows~_~

    話說回來，Brown還認為這種禁區可以挑戰總冠軍，其實心臟也滿大的XD
