[外電] J-Rich想到有競爭力的球隊
Jason Richardson eyes a contender in free agency
One of the top targets in free agency -- whenever it happens -- for a lot of
teams is guard Jason Richardson. He's unrestricted and at 30 yeard old, still
should have a good number of years left in him.
He finished last season playing for the Magic and while he had trouble
finding a solid role for the team, he's still going to be a valuable pickup
for somebody. He isn't going to land anything near the $14.4 million he made
in the final year of his deal, but he recognizes that and is fine with it.
"I want to go to a great place for my family," Richardson told the Saginaw
News. "I've been blessed by God to play in the NBA for a lot of money. I'd
like to go someplace that has a chance to win a championship."
"I probably have five or six seasons left in the NBA, so I want to go
somewhere I can stay."
Hard not to appreciate a player that understands a window might be closing
and that money isn't necessarily the most important part to having a
fulfilling career. Like Richardson said, he doesn't have a lot of run left
in him so going to a rebuilding situation just for money probably doesn't
interest him.
So what are his best options? Here are three:
1. Chicago Bulls:
The Bulls are definitely in the market for a scoring option
next to Derrick Rose.
Keith Bogans was a fine defensive stopper and occasional 3-point
threat,but as the series against the Heat showed, Rose can't do
it all.
He needs wing scoring help. He needs not just a shooter to kick to,
but a guy that defenses have to worry about.Richardson would fit
nicely in between Rose and Luol Deng. The question is,will the Bulls
have the space to sign him?
And if not, just how serious is Richardson about this
not-in-it-for-the-money thing?
2. Orlando Magic:
He could just re-sign with Orlando. The hiccup there is that if he
signs long-term,the Magic could quickly go from contender to rebuilding
dependin on what Dwight Howard does.
The Magic are built to atleast make a push and he fits pretty well in
there as a second or third scoring option.
He'd have to take a cut in pay and be willing to riskthe future a bit
depending on other decisions.
3. Dallas Mavericks:
Maybe the ideal situation for J-Rich. A lot of this depends on what
Dallas does with Caron Butler, J.J. Barea and DeShawn Stevenson,
but the Mavs could easily move on from one, two or even all
three and bring in Richardson.
And even pay him decently. With Butler's injury concerns,the Mavs might
be hesitant about bringing him back and Richardson could certainly fit
in well to the Maverick starting five.
The Mavs don't have the window open for too much longer, but definitely
for at least three or four more seasons.
