Before Wednesday's game, Mark Cuban spent time on the stair-stepper, as he
usually does. And he detailed the thinking that went into the All-Star
Weekend trade that rejuvenated his team.

在星期三比賽以前，Cuban跟以往一樣花了一點時間在樓梯間。他思考了明星賽以前進行
的那比交易如何讓球隊恢復活力。


He said it was the result of running through every scenario, including
"tearing it down."

他說他想過了所有的可能性，其中包含了"砍掉重練"。

By that, he meant getting rid of everybody except Dirk Nowitzki. Cuban said
he made these consider-any-option evaluations where he usually does - in the
shower.

不過他所指的交易掉所有人是指除了Dirk以外的。Cuban說他都是在沖澡時思考這些事。


"I had to go over every possible scenario," he said. "That's why I paid for a
good water heater."

我必須想到所有的可能性，所以我買了台好的熱水器。


Cuban is nothing if not thorough. And you have to appreciate a man who can
office in his bathroom. Probably has high-speed in there, too.


如果Cuban思考不縝密，他不過是個普通人。你必須去欣賞一位能在廁所裡辦公的男人，
也許他在廁所時思考速度很快。


What this means for Mavericks fans is they should be ecstatic about the
future. Cuban not only considered ripping up the team before the trade
deadline, he, Donnie Nelson and Rick Carlisle were smart enough to know that
wasn't the best option.


這些代表了小牛迷對小牛的未來應該要感到開心。Cuban不但考慮把球隊打掉重建，他、
小尼、卡萊爾同時也知道哪些選擇不是最好的。


Looking forward, it's a sign that Cuban will explore every nook and cranny
this summer, when the big free-agent fish are ready to spawn.

本季的暑假Cuban會花時間去看每一位自由球員與大魚。

"That's what I'm supposed to do," he said. "If it's based on cap room, we're
not a player. If it's based on sign-and-trade, we have an opportunity."


"那是我應該做的，如果是簽球員，受到薪資上限我們沒有機會。但如果是交易球員，
我們就有機會。"
