As the defending champion, the Warriors' itinerary for the new season is closer than other teams. For the preseason in Japan, the Warriors held media day and training camp in advance. After the first two preseason games, the Warriors returned to the Bay Area without stopping. After a week of rest, they will play a preseason game with Lakers , Trail Blazers and Nuggets , and then start the regular season journey. After training camp and the first two preseason games, the Warriors examined the performance of some players, and they still have some work to complete before the regular season begins. The Warriors signed one person and cut two people in a row. Poole was jealous of a 4-year, $130 million contract. It was difficult for the Warriors to leave a core lineup.
Early, according to the report of NBA reporter Shams, several sources confirmed that the Warriors had signed a training camp contract with free agent Anthony Lamb. In the previous season, Lamb played for , Spurs, and Rockets respectively. During the offseason, he did not get the Rockets' qualification offer and did not get any other team's contract. The Warriors provided Lamb with a training camp contract this time, and he will compete for a Warriors' seat in the next training camp and preseason. There are signings and layoffs. In previous training and games, the performance of defender McCross and inside player Trey Wayne Williams did not satisfy the Warriors, and they were also cut by the Warriors. The signing and layoffs of these scraps of scraps did not attract much attention, but the renewal of core members of the Warriors has become the most troublesome thing for the team. Earlier, some players from the 19th class completed early renewal with their parent team. In addition to the Rockets' four-year contract renewal of Bruno Fernando in advance, Heat and Taylor Hiro signed a four-year, early contract renewal of US$130 million (of which 10 million is a bonus). Also as the first round pick of the 19th class, Poole updated Twitter as soon as he renewed . He forwarded the news of tweeting . Congratulations to this fellow fellow in the same class on getting the big contract. Although Hero had always hoped to get a maximum salary contract at the beginning, the contract provided by the Heat could still satisfy Heroi.
Although it seems that Poole is congratulating Herro for winning the first big contract in his career, in fact, the issue of his contract renewal with the Warriors is the key to Poole's desire to express. Before the preseason starts, Warriors general manager Miles said they have negotiated renewal with the teams of Wiggins and Green . Regarding Poole's question, after the Japanese preseason ends, Miles will go to him. Now, the Warriors have ended two Japanese preseason games with Wizards , and they have also successfully returned to the Bay Area. Next, Poole and the Warriors' renewal negotiations will be put on the table. Before Poole and the Warriors held a contract renewal negotiation, there was no doubt that Poole specifically forwarded the signing of a four-year, $130 million contract between Hero and the Heat, which was to remind the Warriors management that he also longed for such a big contract.
This is the current era. The super sixth player of any team starts at an annual salary of tens of millions, not to mention young and promising defenders like Hiro and Poole. Even though the Warriors may regret not completing the contract renewal with Poole when he was about $15 million, the Warriors can only face the reality now. From the Warriors' perspective, Poole is what they need to do their best to stay. Because the Warriors are now in a transition period between old and new, although they just won the championship, if the Warriors want to maintain competitiveness for a long time, the stability of the young core lineup is very important, and Poole is obviously the best among the young players such as Wiseman , Kumingga, and Moody.
Poole gives people the feeling that you thought I was not worth it at the time, but now I want you to bleed. Even if he has 100 million in four years, Poole may not look down on him. His goal, like Herro before signing the contract, is a 4-year, $140 million maximum salary contract.To be honest, the Warriors' current situation is very embarrassing. Under the pressure of the super luxury tax at the historical level, every operation of the Warriors needs to be carefully considered. To be honest, in recent years, the contract between Dream Green and Clay has somewhat experienced a premium. If Wiggins did not break out in playoffs , the Warriors will be under even greater pressure.
When cautious, the Warriors will be very careful when facing Poole. They are afraid that if Poole returns to the "ice shooter" state after giving many years of contract, they may be really not far from disintegration. Unexpectedly, Poole's performance was getting better and better, and his condition was getting better and better. He played at a level that was not similar to the "playoff rookie". This has allowed Poole's value to continue to increase. Although NBA salary experts have calculated that Poole's value is about 20 million to 25 million, the current market is a serious premium. Including Poole, Wiggins, Green and others, the Warriors' next problem is difficult to solve.
