BOSTON — The Celtics announced they have signed forward Ryan Kelly Friday. The Celtics signed him immediately after he cleared waivers following his release by the Atlanta Hawks Wednesday. Barring a multi-player trade, Kelly will fill an affiliated player slot on the Maine Red Claws, which would have gone to Ben Bentil before he was waived Friday.
在莱恩凯利周三被老鹰裁掉后，凯尔特人周五立刻宣布签下他。由于不能用于球员交易，凯利将会成为我凯发展联盟球队缅因红爪的附属球员（affiliated player）。这个机会本应属于周五被裁掉的新秀本帝尔。
The 6’11, 230 lbs. stretch four is 25-years-old after three seasons with the Lakers. He showed promise to be a rotation player in his rookie season, most notably when he visited the Garden and scored 20 points in a surprise win over the Celtics. However, his play has declined over the past season and he was deemed surplus for the Hawks, who also have heavy competition to make their final roster. The Hawks are one of the few teams in the NBA who still do not have an official D-League affiliate, preventing them from utilizing the affiliated player designation.
身高6'11体重230磅的凯利现年25岁，在湖人打过三年球。菜鸟赛季曾展示出成为一个轮换球员的潜力，值得一提的是他湖客场取胜我凯时他曾经砍下20分。上个赛季他表现下滑离开湖人，在季前赛阶段也没能留在老鹰的阵容里。这也是因为老鹰是nba里少数几只没有发展联盟球队的队伍，所以无法以附属球员身份将其留下。
The move comes in the wake of the Celtics waiving Ben Bentil, as expected. Danny Ainge drafted Bentil at the end of the second round, but always knew it was unlikely he could hold on to him. Bentil did not want to play in Maine and received a multi-year deal with a partial guarantee this season. The Celtics ate the guarantee and waived him Friday, but Bentil refused to join the Red Claws as an affiliate player. NBA teams can claim up to four affiliate players, who are players cut from the training camp roster who can then be forced to play for the team’s D-League affiliate if they agree to play in the D-League. Affiliate players contracts are in agreement with the D-League and not the individual D-League team, meaning they are free agents to the entire NBA. However, this does allow the affiliate team to keep the players in-house and have an easy path to teach them their system, as the Celtics do with the Red Claws. Putting Kelly in Maine gives the Celtics a chance to have him learn their system in the event that he gets called up after a multi-player trade that leaves a roster spot open. The Celtics would have preferred to bring Bentil up to Maine, but he will pursue an NBA deal before considering the poor-paying D-League or a more substantial deal overseas.
这一切发生于凯尔特人裁掉本帝尔之后。本帝尔是二轮后端的新秀，因此大家都知道他不太可能留在队里。本帝尔拿到一个本赛季部分保障的合同，但他不想打发展联盟，所以拒绝了加入红爪成为附属球员的机会。
nba球队最多能拥有4名附属球员，这些球员是从训练营阵容里裁掉并同意打发展联盟的球员，他们会被发配到球队附属的发展联盟球队。附属球员的合同是和发展联盟签的，并不是和球队签的。这意味着他们对于nba任何球队来说依旧是自由球员。但是，就像我凯和红爪的关系那样，附属球员依然和所属的nba球队保持较为密切的联系，这也更容易向球员传递球队的体系。
我凯把凯利放到红爪使其有机会学习球队体系，在必要的时候（如球队发生交易导致阵容出现空缺）补充阵容。我凯本期望本帝尔留在红爪，但他更想追求一个nba合同，而非发展联盟的廉价合同或海外的长期合同。
This is not necesarilly an indication of the future for James Young or RJ Hunter, who have been shopped league-wide for the past 48 hours according to multiple reports. The reported asking price has been a future second-round pick, which is an unfortunate market condition for Ainge. It is unsurprising considering that one of the players will hit waivers Monday if no trade occurs.
这个签约对詹姆斯杨或RJ亨特的未来并没有什么提示作用。根据多个报道，在过去48小时，管理层已经在联盟范围内寻求对两位新秀的交易。报道指出詹姆斯杨或RJ亨特可用来换一个未来的二轮签。这意味着现在对于安吉来说是个很不利的局面。如果到周一交易还没有发生，其中一名球员被裁也没什么稀奇。
