原標題：Draymond Green Rumors: Grizzlies Had Interest in Warriors FA Before Smart Trade (Draymond Green 乳摸：灰熊在 Smart 被交易前，據稱對勇士隊自由球員有興 趣) 來源：https://is.gd/Qtnr4Q 作者：Doric Sam 原文＋翻譯： Prior to acquiring veteran point guard Marcus Smart from the Boston Celtics in a three-team trade ahead of the 2023 NBA draft, the Memphis Grizzlies reportedly had their eyes set on another defensive specialist. 在二零二三年選秀大會上，於三方交易中從青賽隊得到控球後衛老將 Marcus Smart （下 稱「聰明哥」）之前，灰熊隊據稱曾把目標瞄向另一位防守專家。 According to NBA insider Marc Stein, the Grizzlies had substantial interest in Golden State Warriors star forward Draymond Green, who is set to be a free agent this summer. 根據NBA 內幕記者 Marc Stein 的報導，灰熊隊曾對將在今年夏天成為自由球員的勇士隊 明星前鋒 Draymond Green （下稱「嘴綠」）表示過很大的興趣。 "I'm told that the Grizzlies' pre-Smart interest in Green was genuine," Stein wrote. "And it's fascinating to simply consider the idea of Green engaging Memphis in free agency conversations after the teams' past battles." Stein 寫道： 「我被告知，灰熊有真正地表達過對嘴綠的興趣。在考量雙方過去的交手記錄後，僅僅把 曼菲斯納入嘴綠的自由市場對話的想法就已經夠吸引人了。」 As Stein mentioned, the Grizzlies and Warriors have developed a rivalry over the past few years that would've made it interesting to see how negotiations played out between Memphis and Green, who declined the $27.6 million option on his contract to test the open market this summer. 如Stein 所言，灰熊和勇士在過去數年間形成了對抗關係，這將使灰熊和在今夏跳出二千 七百六十萬美元球員選項、並挑戰自由市場的嘴綠之間的談判變得有趣。 In the 2022 playoffs, the Warriors defeated the Grizzlies in the Western Conference Semifinals on their way to claiming their fourth championship in eight years. During that second-round series, Golden State guard Gary Payton II suffered a broken elbow after a hard foul by Memphis swingman Dillon Brooks, which prompted Warriors coach Steve Kerr to say Brooks "broke the code." 在二零二二年季後賽中，勇士在西部準決賽中打敗了灰熊，之後也奪得了八年內的第四座 總冠軍。在該系列戰中，勇士隊後衛 Gary Payton II (小手套) 曾遭遇灰熊球員 Dillon Brooks (狄龍) 的惡意犯規、且導致後肘骨折，令勇士隊主教練 Steve Kerr 說狄龍「破 壞了規則」。 This year, the two teams split the regular-season series 2-2, with each matchup featuring trash talk from star players. Green, in particular, was subjected to a slew of disparaging remarks from Brooks. 今年，雙方在例行賽中各自取得二勝二敗，每場較量都出現球星的垃圾話。特別是嘴綠， 他就一直遭受來自狄龍的一連串貶低言辭之影響。 "I don't like Draymond at all," Brooks told ESPN's Tim Keown in March. "I just don't like Golden State. I don't like anything to do with them. Draymond talks a lot. Gets away with a lot, too. His game is cool -- with Golden State -- but if you put him anywhere else, you're not going to know who Draymond is. He plays with heart, plays hard, knows the ins and outs of their defense. I guess that's why they like him over there." 狄龍在三月向 ESPN 記者 Tim Keown 說： 「我從未喜歡過嘴綠。我只是單純不喜歡金州，與他們相關的一切都是如此。嘴綠說了很 多，也躲了很多。他在勇士隊的表現很厲害，但如果你把他帶到其他地方，你不可能知 道嘴綠會怎樣表現。他用心、努力打球，知道他們防守的來龍去脈，這就是為何他們希 望他留在那裡。」 It sounds like they would've liked Green in Memphis, too, but we'll likely never know thanks to the arrival of Smart. The 2022 Defensive Player of the Year, Smart provides some insurance for the Grizzlies while they're without star point guard Ja Morant during his suspension for the first 25 games of next season. 聽起來他們也會喜歡嘴綠來到曼菲斯，但在聰明哥到來之前，我們可能永遠不會知道。作 為二零二二年的年度最佳防守球員，聰明哥為灰熊隊提供了一些保障，因為他們在下賽季 的前二十五場比賽中，不會有明星控球後衛 Ja Morant 的參與。 短評： 真的讓嘴綠去了的話，畫面還真的美到不敢想像...
