I hate when money gets in the way of sports, but this is nothing new.
我討厭金錢介入運動，但這不是新鮮事了。
As a fan and a blogger, I'm very used to spending other (rich) people's money.
I demand results and I scream for the oweners to 'open up their wallets' to be
competitive. If they don't, I fell perfectly comfortable calling them cheap and
openly wishing that they sell the team to someone who can and will.
做為一個球迷及部落客，我以往強烈希望球隊擁有者不要吝嗇的花錢，如果他們不願意，
我將渴望他們將球隊賣給願意這麼做的人。
In truth, I should put all of that first paragraph in the past tense because
this current ownership group has dropped this collective wallet in the center
of the table and pushed all-in more times than not.
我之所以用過去式是因為現在的老闆多將可用的錢全盤托出。
With all that said, I do recall the days before Kevin Garnett when Wyc and
company were promising to pay the luxruy tax only if they thought that they
were going to be contenders. It didn't make sense to pay tax on a lottery team.
我能想到當年Wyc 願意為KG支付豪華稅，是因為有了他，他們有奪冠機會，沒道理為了一
支樂透隊伍去付豪華稅。
So with everyone from Doc to Danny to ownership admitting that this team isn't
currently set up to be a serious conender, you have to at least start thinking
of the money again. In fact, it goes beyond the 'willingness to spend' aspect.
In fact, the Celtics signed a cable package that will make them very lucrative
profits outside of the direct basketball operations. They can afford the debits
on the salary side with all the credits they are getting from other revenue
streams.
所以當大家承認(無論是DOC還是老闆)現在是沒有奪冠實力時，就有必要重新思考金錢。
當然，願意去花這筆錢的話就另當別論。事實上，球隊簽了一個十分有利的約。他可以
用其他管道來支付這筆保障約。
The real problem is the new Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA). The new pact
(which Wyc and company helped negotiate by the way) inflicts stricter penalties
on teams exceeding the cap and especially teams doing so in consecutive years
(the "repeater tax"). It isn't just financial pain either.
然而真正的問題在於新的CBA，它加重了豪華稅懲罰那些超過上限的球隊，並特別針對累犯
加以懲罰。
Restricting your GM tools is a draconian measure designed to dissuade the
Lakers, Celtics, and other big pocket (big market) teams from going all
Yankees/Red Sox on the rest of the league. That doesn't mean that teams won't
do it with eyes wide open (the Lakers aren't batting an eyelash yet). It just
gives GMs and owners pause before overspending for someone like a backup
center.
限制了GM的工具是用來阻止湖人、超賽這些大市場隊伍來做出像洋基、紅襪一樣的事。
但這不代表球隊會因此完全退縮(湖人甚至理都不理)，這只是讓GM暫時不會過度花費在
替補上。
Or cutting more to the core of our situation, it makes owners a lot more
hesitant to pay aging stars what their legacy deserves. The decision isn't as
easy as our sentimentality would wish for.
這也讓球隊更猶豫是否要給老將他們所剩餘的價值(這樣翻好怪)。
On the "keep him" side you've got the fact that the guy can still play (when
at full speed). There's also a very, very big sentimentality aspect. By that
I don't mean just "wanting to keep him around because we like him." I'm
talking about ticket buying fans willing to pay real money to see this
"non-contending team." We're also talking about pleasing other veterans and a
certain coach to stick around longer. We're also talking about future
potential free agents watching to see how stars are treated in Boston.
以"保留"派的說法，他還具備著一定實力，然而不只是為了喜歡它而留他，我認為那些買
票進場是願意來看這支沒有競爭力的球隊。除此之外也能使其他球員更願意留下，並告知
未來新秀，我們是怎麼善待明星的。
On the "send him off" side you've got money and flexibility. It seems silly
to pay a guy $5M to play for someone else, but when it means $10M of cap
flexibility it becomes a little easier to understand. Granted, you can't just
spend that $10M on another free agent (that would be too easy). But backing
off the restrictions and tax penalties can free you up to do a lot more going
forward.
若買斷，我們得到了錢與空間，雖然付500萬給一個為別隊效力的人看起來很愚蠢，
但我們得到了1000萬的薪資空間，我們不只可以拿來簽自由球員，我們還避開了罰款
並有更多事可以做。
So will Pierce get released? Nobody knows right now. Why is this even being
considered? Follow the money. It isn't what we signed up for as fans, but
this is the world we live in and root for.
讓我們繼續看下去。XD
