https://tinyurl.com/2uss8b2h Mat Ishbia: We Don't Want Our Future First Round Picks Back 原文作者：Shams Charania/ESPN (RealGM摘要轉錄) https://i.imgur.com/q8rYrIB.jpeg The Phoenix Suns don't control any of their future first round picks until 2031 as they've used them on trades for Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal since he assumed ownership in 2023. 鳳凰城太陽隊直到2031年，都無法主動控制自己的選秀籤－因為自從Met Ishbia 在去年成為球隊老闆以來，就已經以這些資產換來Durant與Beal兩位球星了。 "I could care less who has those picks," said Ishbia to ESPN's Shams Charania. "Guess what, my job is to make those picks be the 25th, 27th, 29th picks every single year. We don't want those picks back. We have Devin Booker, Kevin Durant and Brad Beal. We have no intention of having our 2027 pick being a lottery pick." Ishbia最近接受ESPN記者Charania訪問時表示：｢我不在乎誰擁有這些籤。 你知道嗎，我的職責就是每一年都要讓這些籤變成第25或以後的順位。 我們還不想要把這些籤拿回來，因為我們已經有了Booker, KD與Beal三大球星， 我們並不想要把自己原先在2027年的選秀籤變成樂透籤。」 After the Suns were eliminated in the first round of the 2024 NBA playoffs by the Minnesota Timberwolves, Ishbia parted ways with Frank Vogel and replaced him with Mike Budenholzer. The Suns started the season 8-1 until Durant's calf injury and have since fallen to 9-6. 太陽隊在2024季後賽被灰狼淘汰後，Ishbia開除了前一年才加入的Vogel， 並且用同樣拿過一次冠軍的Budenholzer替代。後者加入後，太陽曾經打出開季8-1 的慶祝行情，可惜在KD的左小腿拉傷後，球隊就陷入了1-5的低潮。 Last June, the Houston Rockets traded multiple picks originating from the Brooklyn Nets back to them in exchange for future picks from the Rockets. There has been speculation that if the Suns ever decided to trade away Booker or Durant, receiving their own future first round picks back in return, as Brooklyn did, would be enticing. 快半年前，火箭隊與KD的前東家籃網達成了一筆選秀權互換的交易，當中爆點在於： 籃網拿回了當初為了拿到Harden，送出的選秀籤。 所以最近也一直有人推測：太陽會不會遲早走上籃網現在的路，決定拿KD甚至 Booker這兩大球星，換回自己的未來選秀權－畢竟這樣的包裹，無論在交易市場還是 媒體討論，都是相當誘人的(Enticing)。 ——————————————————————— 補充：Shams與太陽老闆訪談的片段，可以參考他的推特 https://shm.to/5rGLHwL https://i.imgur.com/h5Le9wS.jpeg 心得：我擷取了一張有拍到Shams的鏡頭 https://i.imgur.com/SGLga6k.jpeg 感覺就連Shams也不大相信Ishbia的說詞XD KD的得分效率跟全能球技當然沒話說，問題就在於：他在關鍵比賽，能幫太陽效力 多少場？ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 101.10.59.140 (臺灣) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/NBA/M.1732252401.A.B87.html
