Since the offseason, the Warriors have a total of 12 lineup adjustments, both large and small. The "5 in and 5 out" personnel changes seem to be minor, but the 2 wounded and 3 newcomers indicate that the team is firmly in control Strengthen the initiative.
Miles completed a total of 12 operations from the draft to the opening of the free market. The details are as follows:
Summary of adjustments made by the Warriors since the offseason
1. Introduce 5 people.
In the draft, Kuminga was removed from the 7th pick and Moody's was removed from the 14th pick. After the free market opened, they introduced Otto-Porter and Vielica with three one-year salaries. Back to Iguodala.
Left Porter, Middle Igo, Right Belica
Second, bid farewell to 5 people.
Cut center Smaradic, give up leaving Mann, and send Pascal to the Jazz, in exchange for the Grizzlies' top 42 pick in 2026 (not meaningful, just clearing up the salary space) , Failed to leave a useful Baezmore, Ubre? Last season's experimental results were far from reaching the target, so he was watched to join the Hornets. Of the 5 people who sent off, only Baezmore was a loss in strength.
3. Splash brothers.
The team renewed the contract with Curry in advance with 215 million yuan for four years. As a result, the primary school students were locked in the right to use the next five years; and the other half of the Splash Brothers, Clay Thompson, reportedly Come back around the Christmas War, the two are the cornerstones of the team.
At this point, among the 12 changes, the Warriors’ basic formation for the new season has been completed. The details are as follows:
The Warriors’ starting five for next season
Insiders: Rooney , Wise Man and Belica; strikers: Dreamcatcher Green, Wiggins, Otto Porter, Iguodala, Cuminga and Anderson; back line: Curry, Thompson , Moses Moody, Jordan Poole and Damian Lee.The team also has a spot to fill a point guard. If you can't introduce the ideal candidate, you will probably choose between Peyton II and Cheosa.
From the perspective of the entire framework, the Warriors' reinforcement name is not very prominent, but the 2 wounded and 3 rookies give the team a very flexible reinforcement "initiative".
Fourth, 2 wounded and 3 newcomers reached the standard.
Klay Thompson returned after two seasons away. Two years ago, he had already played the league’s top shooting guard status. On the offensive end, he not only had three points, but also had a stable mid-range, and his explosive scoring power was extremely terrifying (single quarter). 37 points); on the defensive end, he is still the team's outside iron gate, both offensive and defensive. If he can return to the top like Durant, the Warriors will directly return to the championship level.
Among the three veterans added by the team, Otto Porter is the most critical link. In the 2017-18 season, he was still averaging 14.7 points, 6.4 rebounds, 2 assists and the potential third star. Unfortunately, injuries have been haunting him for the past three seasons, so that the 28-year-old has become a puzzle blue-collar. If he can Return to the top, the Warriors' forward strength will be further strengthened.
Kuminga and Moody's can increase the depth of the team
Wiseman, as the second place in the list, may be able to gain a foothold in the league in the new season; Kuminga's performance in the development league and summer league is confirmed , He is a plug-and-play puzzle; if Moody's can still deliver immediate combat power, the depth of the team will be guaranteed.
If all the above five people realize their value according to Miles's vision, under the guidance of Curry, Green and Wiggins, the Warriors will return directly to the championship level. Of course, all five of them "reach the standard". "It's difficult; and even if there are three qualified, especially Clay can recover to the peak level, the Warriors are already one of the Western powers.
5. You can upgrade twice before the trading gate is closed.
And once the above 2 wounded and 3 newcomers fail to meet the expectations of the team? Don't worry, the team retains the possibility of a second reinforcement.
As long as you protect the Splash Brothers,The Warriors have the background of rushing to the championship
Every season, before the trading gate closes, the team still has room for adjustment. The Warriors have Wiggins, Dreamcatcher Green, Wiseman, Cuminga and Moody, as well as In the first round of the next four years, the rich combination of chips will give Miles flexible trading space, such as the widely rumored Simmons, Miles Turner, even Bill, etc., the team You can continue to strengthen. After all, the only goal in the next five years is to build a team around Curry to win the championship.
Conclusion: On the surface, the Warriors have 5 in and 5 out and only 10 people have adjusted little. But 2 wounded and 3 newcomers indicate that the team not only has the possibility of improving the strength of the current lineup, but also can be two before the closing of the trading door. This promotion, the team has the "initiative" to reinforce.
