Jordan Poole and Andrew Wiggins
Text
Beijing timeOn October 6, during the training of the Warriors, Green and Poole had a fierce conflict. According to the leaked video, the two first had some quarrels, and Poole stood on the sidelines without moving, but Green immediately shouted and approached Poole step by step. Poole couldn't help but push Green, and then the conflict broke out completely. Green punched Poole and knocked Poole to the billboard behind the basket. Then his teammates and relevant staff rushed forward to stop him.
Conflict incident
According to the consistent handling method of NBA, it must be resolved internally in the team's locker room, and the conflict will not be announced to the public, but the staff in the Warriors are quite powerful and secretly sold the video to the media at a high price. Although the staff member was investigated and fired afterwards, the conflict could no longer be concealed and the contradictions were directly placed on the table. It was impossible for the Warriors to deal with it in a low-key manner. They must give everyone an explanation.
According to reporters, the fundamental reason for this conflict may be related to the contract between Poole and Green. As we all know, this season is about to begin, and the Warriors still have three main players to renew their contracts, but the Warriors' salary is already at a very high point, and the remaining salary space is limited, so they will definitely not be able to afford three maximum salary long contracts. Three main players: Wiggins, Green and Poole, there is a high probability that one of them will be forced to leave the team unless someone chooses to cut their salary. From the perspective of technical strength, Wiggins and Poole are the first choice to renew the contract, but from the player's resume, Green is a hero of the Warriors dynasty. He once made great achievements in winning the Warriors' championship, and at the same time had a close relationship with the leading star , Curry and , so the Warriors were unable to make up their minds for a long time. After the conflict, Green apologized to Poole, the Warriors team and Poole's family at the team press conference, and said he would leave the team indefinitely.

On October 12, Beijing time, the Warriors announced the results of the conflict between Green and Poole: Green was fined.

In addition, on October 6, Miami Heat and defender Taylor Hero completed a contract renewal with Heat in advance for 4 years of US$130 million. Hiro was selected by Heat in the first round of 2019, and last season averaged 20.7 points, 5.0 rebounds and 4.0 assists, with a three-point shooting percentage of 39.9%; while Poole was selected by the Warriors at the 28th pick in the first round of 2019, starting from the Development League. In the regular season of the 2021-22 season, Poole averaged 18.5 points, 3.4 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 0.8 steals per game. playoffs averaged 17.0 points, 2.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 0.8 steals per game. Judging from the data comparison between the two, Poole's contract cannot be much different from Herro, which directly puts great pressure on the Warriors, disrupting the Warriors' renewal strategy deployment, and has to negotiate a contract renewal with Poole in advance.

As the Warriors completed the renewal of the contract with Poole, the Warriors officially announced that Wiggins had completed the early renewal and posted a signing photo of Wiggins signing the new contract. It is understood that the new contract between the two parties is US$109 million for 4 years. Previously, most people in believed that Wiggins would receive a contract with an annual salary of more than 35 million yuan. After all, the current NBA does not lack excellent guards, but excellent forwards. The 27-year-old Wiggins was not only selected as the All-Star starter last season, but also helped the Warriors win the final NBA championship . He averaged 17.2 points, 4.5 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game in the regular season, and averaged 16.5 points, 7.5 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game in the playoffs. It is the second most contributor to the Warriors' championship after Curry. Therefore, Wiggins' contract was less than Poole's, which caused some discussion. As of now, Wiggins has the last one-year contract with the Warriors. Together with the newly reached 4-year, $109 million early contract renewal, the total value of his contract is about $143 million in five years.

Conclusion
With Poole and Wiggins renewing their contracts to stay in the team, the Warriors will not have to worry about the team's strength in recent years. Of course, these two signings will definitely make the other person dissatisfied, that is Green. Although Green gives people the impression that he is polite, for example, the sentence "Before you win the championship, I was the championship", forced Durant to Nets . But if you think about it carefully, you will find that every time Green speaks without any restraint, it actually has a strong purpose. Now the Warriors basically have no high possibility of renewing Green's contract with a maximum salary, which means that after playing this season, Green will likely test the free market, unless he is willing to reduce the salary of to renew the Warriors' contract with .
