Reject 75.2 million for 3 years! Kumingga believes that he will become a star, and there is a disagreement in the Warriors management

On September 16, many teams recently made the final addition to their roster. They are making the final operation for the new season, and the Warriors' idea of ​​not signing players for a long time also worries many fans. After all, the training camp is about to begin, and many players who have reached oral agreements may join other teams if the Warriors do not sign. Recently, Brogden chose to join the Knicks because he couldn't wait for the Warriors.

, and the Warriors have not signed up, probably everyone knows that it is caused by Kuminga. Because Kumingga has not signed a contract, this also makes the Warriors unable to make substantial signings. They are afraid that after introducing these players who have reached oral agreements, other teams will take advantage of the situation and offer Kumingga, and eventually snatch him away. Kumingga wants a big contract, but the Warriors don't want to give it, so the two sides have not been able to complete the signing. And today Shams wrote an article about Kumingga's problem.

He said in July this year, he provided the Warriors with a three-year, 82 million+ player option. Sources said the Warriors have been hesitating whether to provide such a generous long-term contract to Kumingga, showing concerns about the future value of the contract. Recently, the Warriors provided a three-year contract with a team option of 75.2 million, which is a brand new offer. Previously, the Warriors only planned to give a team option of 45 million, with a team option of 2 years.

This is considered a concession made by the Warriors to Kumingga. This contract is basically the same as Joshgidi's 4-year 100 million contract in the first two years, but Kumingga has stated that they are unwilling to accept the offer of the team's options and hope that they can occupy more dominance. They do not want to become the asset of the transaction. In fact, the Warriors have always wanted the team option to trade Kuminga. Previously, the Suns and the Kings were teams that were interested in Kuminga, but the Warriors both refused their deal.

According to Shams, both the Kings and the Suns promised Cuminga the starting power forward position. Previously, the Suns had been trying to trade around Reus O'Neal + second round pick to get Cuminga, while the Kings wanted to use Monk + future first round pick to exchange Cuminga, but the Kings did not want to give an unprotected first round pick, so the Warriors rejected the trading interest of the two teams, which is also one of the reasons why Cuminga is disgusted with the Warriors now. He believes that the Warriors have destroyed his chance to prove himself.

It is reported that Kumingga wants not only a simple contract, but more tactical status and core roles. At the Warriors, they cannot guarantee that they can average about 30 minutes of playing time, nor can they guarantee that they can get the ball to end at critical moments, so he does not want to stay with the Warriors. To put it bluntly, Kumingga wants the core position. He is very confident in himself. He believes that he will be an All-Star player in the future.

As for whether Kumingga can become an All-Star player in the future, I don't know this, but the Warriors definitely did not regard him as a player of this level, otherwise they would not have given players an option contract. As for now, Kumingga's probability will choose a one-year qualification offer to stay in the team, but I don't know when it will be executed. Previously, Kumingga's agent asked the Warriors for a contract that was slightly higher than the qualification offer. Just like the Nets' quotation for Cameron Thomas for one year, the Warriors directly refused. The reason why the Warriors refused is very simple. You want to leave the team after a year of playing, why should I give you more money? The problem that caused Kumingga has continued now is actually caused by the disagreement of opinions of the Warriors' management. The boss Lacob believes that it is necessary to stay Kumingga. He has always admired Kumingga very much. He has previously refused to trade with Kumingga for Caruso. The team's general manager Dunleavy and coach Cole are not interested in staying Kumingga, but because Racob is the boss, they dare not send it away and can only lower the price.

This has led to the fact that Kumingga's signing problem has continued to have no results until now, and their management has diverged. According to Shams, Rakob had personally found Kumingga and hoped that he could stay, but Kumingga asked back: Do you really want me to stay? Recently, Zhu Meng Green and Butler also called Kumingga, who has now been prepared to sign a one-year qualification quotation contract, and he plans to buy a value loss insurance to protect his own interests.

To be honest, this matter cannot be simply criticized by Kumingga. It is true that Kumingga is suspected of being bad now, but the Warriors have never trained others. Now they are still thinking about how to squeeze Kumingga's final value, which is indeed inauthentic. This is the common relationship between employees and bosses. Both sides are waiting for the other party to make final concessions. Now Kumingga has already thought about it. He doesn't care about the qualification quotation, and of course he still wants the team to give more. If Kumingga accepts the qualification quote, the Warriors will save 70 million in luxury tax.

Speaking of this, what do you want to say about Kumingga and the Warriors now? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
