Jimmy Butler Reportedly Told by Cavaliers Players to Avoid Team After GM's
Exit
騎士球員跟Butler說總經理走了，不要過來騎士這邊

Cleveland Cavaliers players have reportedly told Chicago Bulls star Jimmy
Butler to avoid a trade to the reigning Eastern Conference champions due to
the group's uncertain future following the departure of general manager David
Griffin this week.
據報導騎士球員跟Jimmy Butler(以下簡稱JB)說，總經理David Griffin走了，球隊未來
混沌不明，可能不要交易來騎士比較好。

On Wednesday, Joe Cowley of the Chicago Sun-Times reported members of the
Cavs who previously urged Butler to push for a deal to join the organization
are now telling him the opposite. They are worried about an early "unforeseen
early breakup" of the star-studded roster.
星期三芝加哥太陽時報記者報導先前有數位騎士球員努力在推動JB到騎士來，但是忽然改
變了，因為他們擔心球隊可能會有「不可預期的大改變」，所以叫JB不要過來騎士。

However, Sam Amico of AmicoHoops.net spoke to a source who said there is
"zero truth" to the report and that it's an "absolute fabrication."
但是也有消息來源指出「這一切都是幻覺」...

The 27-year-old Texas native quickly emerged as potential target for
Cleveland following the team's five-game loss to the Golden State Warriors in
the 2017 NBA Finals. He would have provided the Cavaliers with more firepower
to challenge the Dubs in the increasingly top-heavy league.
騎士在輸給勇士之後就相中27歲的JB，他們認為JB可以帶給他們更多的進攻火力，才能跟
來年的勇士對抗。

Vincent Goodwill of CSN Chicago confirmed the Bulls are "shopping" Butler
ahead of the 2017 NBA draft Thursday night, and he noted the Cavs "seemed to
be on the Bulls' doorstep" before Griffin's exit.
CSN記者指出公牛在兜售JB，而且在騎士總管Griffin離開之前，這筆交易已經快要成了。

Cavaliers superstar LeBron James posted a message on social media after the
abrupt end of the general manager's stay with the franchise:
The不讓在社群媒體上發表了他對騎士總管離開的看法: (http://tinyurl.com/y93juy3u)

「If no one appreciated you Griff I did, and hopefully all the people of
Cleveland! Thanks for what u did for the team for 3 yrs! We got us 1 champ」
「如果沒人感謝你，小葛，我挺你！也希望所有的騎迷也跟我一樣。謝謝你這三年來所做
的一切；我們得到了一冠！」

The sudden move came as speculation continues to swirl about the future of
the team's Big Three, which also features point guard Kyrie Irving and power
forward Kevin Love.
這突如其來的舉動讓大家對騎士三巨頭的未來發展有了諸多揣測。

Adrian Wojnarowski of The Vertical said on a podcast last week James could
again leave Cleveland next year, this time potentially landing in Los Angeles
with the Lakers or Clippers. Meanwhile, Cowley added Irving has been
contacting fellow Team USA players to inform them "he might be willing to
push for a trade" due to the ongoing drama.
沃神上周爆料，The不讓明年會離開騎士，投向湖人或快艇。另外，記者Cowley也說，KI
在跟他的奧運隊友說，他也想交易。

Butler's current contract has two more guaranteed seasons and a player option
for a third year. So, while his arrival would bolster the Cavs' hopes of a
championship next season, he could be left alone to pick up the pieces if the
2018 offseason becomes as frenzied as suddenly seems possible in Cleveland.
JB目前的合約還有兩年，以及第三年的球員選擇。不過若是他真的被交易到騎士，很有可
能在2018年後他可能就會被三巨頭放鳥，只剩他一個人在騎士。

Goodwill listed the Boston Celtics, Phoenix Suns and Denver Nuggets as other
potential landing spots for the coveted small forward.
