The look of next year's Suns team may be dependent on the outcome of tomorrow's
NBA draft lottery.
    明年太陽隊的樣子可能會依明天NBA選秀樂透抽籤結果而定。

Coach Mike D'Antoni said the only way the Suns would make changes is if those
changes would improve the team. He said Managing Partner Robert Sarver is
committed to improving the team but also said an estimated $12 million luxury
tax hit undoubtedly would be reduced. The penalty is based on the payroll at
the February trade deadline, so Phoenix could return its core and deal with
financial issues later.
    教練M.D'Antoni說除非改變能讓太陽更進步球隊才有可能尋求改變。他說經營夥伴R.
Sarver保證會讓球隊更進步但同時也提到會致力降低預估高達1,200萬美元的豪華稅金。這
個罰金是根據二月交易底限時的薪水超過薪資上限多少而定，所以太陽可以保有核心陣容
，過一陣子再來處理這個財務問題。

"It's not a black-and-white issue," Sarver said. "We just have no idea right
now. We have a lot of moving pieces that need to be figured out. I do like the
core of our team."
    "這不是個非黑即白的問題，"Sarver說。"我們現在一點想法都沒有。我們有許多尚待
處理。我真的很喜歡現在球隊的核心。"

D'Antoni said he did not know how the Suns would get better by trading Shawn
Marion, who is due $16.4 million and $17.2 million in the next two seasons.
Marion trade rumors seem to come up every summer.
    D'Antoni說他不知道太陽如何藉由交易Matrix而變得更好，Matrix在接下來兩個球季
的薪資分別是1640萬和1720萬美元。Matrix的交易傳言似乎每個夏天總要傳上好一段時間
。

"This is a business, so I don't know what will happen," Marion said.
    "這是商業活動，所以我不知道會發生什麼事，"Matrix說。

Progress can start with tomorrow's NBA draft lottery. To complete the
Johnson-Diaw trade, Phoenix receives Atlanta's pick if that pick is not among
the top three.
    太陽進化過程會從明天NBA選秀樂透抽籤開始。如果亞特蘭大老鷹的選秀權不高於第三
順位，太陽就可以收回JJ-屌爺交易案中老鷹欠下的選秀權。

"We have to be careful tinkering with this too much," D'Antoni said. "You can
get an All-Star out of the draft. I don't want to think we've got to go crazy.
We're not that far away."
    "我們必須小心翼翼地利用這個選秀權，"D'Antoni說。"你能在選秀會上獲得一個全明
星球員。我不認為我們需要什麼瘋狂的交易動作，我們離目標(冠軍)並沒有很遠。"
