There are still comments from the outside world about how to use the second pick of the Warriors. Recently, according to expert Zach Lowe, there are rumors that the Warriors want to send this year's No. 2 pick to the Spurs in exchange for Aldridge and the No. 11 pick. The NBA has also reported favorable news for the Warriors, saying that it may reduce the team's luxury tax based on the reduction in basketball-related income after the 2020-21 season.
recently tweeted according to "Spurs Report" that expert Lowe talked about a trading rumor he heard recently on the show. The rumor said that the Warriors may send the second pick to the Spurs in exchange for Aldridge and the 11th pick.
Lowe said frankly that his first reaction was that the deal was too crazy. He didn't think the Warriors should do it and couldn't find any evidence to support the Warriors. Because in Lowe's view, the veteran who is more suitable for the Warriors is Holiday.
In fact, this rumor may sound absurd at first glance, but it has its merits after careful consideration. First, both Aldridge and DeRozan may leave the Spurs this summer. In contrast, as a space-based big man, Aldridge is undoubtedly more suitable for the Warriors' current lineup, which will also give Aldridge the best chance of winning his career.
is second. The Spurs' 11th overall pick this year is also the highest overall pick the team has won since Duncan was drafted in 1997. If this pick can be quickly promoted to the No. 2 pick, it will be tempting for the Spurs who are rebuilding. With the Spurs' high-level perspective, this No. 2 pick will have the greatest value in their hands.
Of course, if Aldridge joins the Warriors, the Warriors' total salary will undoubtedly burst. But today came the news that excites the Warriors.
It is reported that taking into account the current state of the league’s fiscal revenue reduction, in order to reduce the salary cap and luxury tax increase year by year (the latest news is that the salary cap and luxury tax line will remain unchanged for the 2020-21 season, 109 million and 132 million, respectively) to the NBA The burden of the team, the NBA may reduce the luxury tax of NBA teams based on the reduction in basketball-related income after the 2020-21 season.
Salary expert Bobby Marks, for example, said that if basketball-related income drops by 30%, the Warriors’ luxury tax will be reduced from 60 million to 42 million; if the Warriors use the 17.2 million previously obtained in the Iguodala transaction They will save nearly 50 million dollars in the special case of trading in US dollars. The famous Brian Wenhorst later joked that this was a major victory for the Warriors, and other teams in the league would start to frustrate again. The news of
's introduction of Aldridge and the future luxury tax reduction of the Warriors came out on the same day, and Warriors fans have reason to look forward to the future. (Supine Support/Furry)
