終於找到工作,安東尼還有多少"剩餘價值"?

The last time fans saw the 10-time All-Star in an NBA jersey was 12 months ago, when he missed 10 of 11 shots and all six three-point attempts in a blowout loss to the Thunder.

距離球迷上次見到身披NBA球衣的十屆全明星安東尼已有12個月，當時那場比賽他11投1中，6記三分全失，潰敗於雷霆隊。

Portland offer Anthony the contract which will pay him just under $15,000 per day he's with the team, and will only become fully guaranteed if he makes it past January 7, according to ESPN's Bobby Marks.

據ESP的 Bobby Marks報道，波特蘭爲安東尼開出的是一份日薪不到1.5萬美金的無保障合同。只有當他挺過2020年1月7號，這份合同纔會轉爲全額保障合同。

In other words: This is a prove-it deal.

換句話說：這是一份需要證明的合同。

If he could nudge his catch-and-shoot efficiency back up to where it was in Oklahoma City two seasons ago, when he knocked down 37.3 percent of his off-the-catch triple tries, he could provide a valuable threat spotting up on the opposite side of the floor from Lillard and McCollum when they isolate or run pick-and-rolls.

如果安東尼的接球跳投效率能恢復到兩年前雷霆時期的37.3%的水平，當利拉德和麥科勒姆單打或者發動擋拆的時候，他只要站在他們的進攻位置的對面，就能提供有力的威脅。

Anthony was not a ball-stopper with either the Thunder or Rockets.

安東尼無論在雷霆還是火箭都不是一個粘球王。

He appeared to understand his role well, attempting to excel as an Olympic Melo catch-and-shoot specialist.

他似乎很清楚自己的角色定位，努力成爲像“奧運瓜”那樣優秀的接球跳投專家。

While Melo has always been a shoot-first, -second, and -third type, he's also a smart and experienced offensive basketball player who has averaged three assists per 36 minutes of floor time for his career, and who can make a productive pass as a release valve when opponents trap the ball out of the Blazers guards'hands.

儘管安東尼曾經是投籃型得分手，但他同時也是一名聰明且經驗豐富的進攻型球員，在他職業生涯中，每36分鐘能送出3個助攻。一旦對手嚴防開拓者雙槍不讓其接球時，安東尼就能送出高效傳球幫助球隊減壓。

Anthony will have plenty of opportunities to reshape Portland's season, potentially beginning with an awkward homecoming at Houston on Monday.

安東尼將有大量機會幫助波特蘭開拓者重新回到正軌，尷尬地是，即將在週一出戰首場的他要面對的是老東家休斯頓火箭隊。
