The Warriors have basically confirmed the roster, 8 defenders! Maybe the team is ready to rebuild

The Warriors, who have not operated anyway throughout the summer, still dare not make any noise on the surface. Regarding the Warriors and Kumingga, there are only three options: Kumingga executes a 1-year quotation of 7.9 million yuan, with veto power, and leaves freely tomorrow summer; Kumingga renews the Warriors for 45 million yuan in two years, with the option of bringing players; Kumingga renews the Warriors for 75 million yuan in three years, with the option of bringing players. When Kumingga "took player options as life", in addition to Curry + Butler + Dream Chasing Green clearly stated that he hoped Kumingga would return, it was only a matter of time before the Warriors made concessions. But the Warriors just refused to give in and forced Kuming to sign a quotation of 7.9 million qualification? Don't worry, the more annoying thing is still to come.
As the Warriors have closed various negotiation windows, it is a foregone conclusion that Kumingga stays in the team in the new season. It is nothing more than waiting for Kumingga to sign the qualification quotation for another week. According to famous reporter Steine + Bay Area team reporters, the Warriors will organize a mini training camp starting this week, which will focus on veterans such as Curry + Green + Butler + Hilder. The consensus reached by the outside world is that after Kumingga signed, the remaining places in the Warriors' lineup belong to Horford + Melton + Payton Jr. + second round pick Richard, and Kumingga. According to various sources, Horford may have 11.7 million in two years, Payton Jr. 7.9 million in two years, and Melton and Curry Jr. join the franchise at a minimum salary. And Horford, Payton Jr., and others have been asking when the Kumingga problem will be solved many times.
Everyone is tired of waiting! But this 15-man roster in the Warriors' new season is even more interesting! Curry is 1.88 meters, Podjemsky is 1.92 meters, Payton is 1.88 meters, Richard is 1.93 meters, Moody is 1.95 meters, Hilde is 1.93 meters, Melton is 1.88 meters, Curry is 1.85 meters. There are 15 people in total and 8 defenders! In Bay Area media, it is expected that the new season will be like Hilde + Moody + Payton Jr., and will be in the third or even the fourth position more time. It's not over yet. Curry will turn 38 next season (March next year), Green will turn 36 next season (March next year), Butler will turn 36. Don't forget veteran Horford, who will turn 40 next summer. He has already secured the starting center position of the Warriors in the new season in advance.
In fact, the Warriors' starting lineup is not difficult to guess next season: Curry + Melton + Butler + Dream Chasing Green + Horford, others are on standby. But how can the Warriors compete with other teams in the West? Let’s look at the two sets of data. Last season’s playoffs, the Warriors’ rebounding rate in 100 rounds was 4.4% lower than their opponents. The team won the most points, three veterans led Hilder and Pojemsky, who won 14.9 points in 65 minutes, but lost 14.6%, all relying on three-pointers (the shooting percentage was 11.5% higher than that of their opponents). But compared with the regular season three-point shooting percentage of 36.4%, the Warriors' three-point shooting percentage of the playoffs is 35.3%, which is still down! It is easy to understand that the three-pointer has the ability to chase points, but it is absolutely unstable!
In other words, the Warriors have no lower limits in this lineup. This is also the "special show" of coach Cole. Since 3 years ago, he has set up a lineup of the ultimate five-small: Curry + Clay + Poole + Divincenzo + Green. Players over 2 meters think it's too high. If you are not tall enough, you need speed and physical fitness to pull out space. Does the Warrior have it? Four veterans locked in the starting lineup, and they had to be surrounded by a blue-collar worker who did the most dirty and tiring work. Horford had a shot but his age increased and his confrontation declined. Butler only held the ball, Green's offensive end was unstable, and in the end all the pressure returned to Curry. But if Curry is expected to play the role of the regular season guarantee, there will be no guarantee in the playoffs.
Why do the three core Warriors have unified their attitude and hope that Kumingga will return as soon as possible? In fact, this has nothing to do with Kumingga. The Warriors management just used Kumingga's banner to cover up his essential attitude of not being willing to do during the offseason. "It's not that we don't want to strengthen, but what can we do if Kumingga is restrained?" More deeply, Butler has a 2-year contract of 110 million yuan, no trading market, and has lost the ability to raise the upper limit with Curry in the playoffs; the system of Kumingga's parasitics in the dream Green parasitizes Kerr and Curry, Curry is the team's signature, and the 140 million salary space cannot be moved. The Warriors can have sufficient reasons to choose to hold on, and they can only make the players anxious! In the end, the few people signed are either guards or veterans who are about to retire. Is it useful? The Warriors' attitude is already very clear, and they don't care whether Kumingga can become Curry's successor. They can sacrifice Kumingga alone and make the players "give up". Curry wants a helper, but Butler has found you, but he has also seen his performance in the playoffs. As soon as the Qualification Quotation of Kumingjia was released during the offseason, the Warriors really wanted to strengthen their players and gave them options long ago. It was obvious that they didn’t want to invest more heavily. They were talking about the contracts of the three veterans when they expired. So I really can't blame Kumingga, he just wants to get what he deserves. The culprit is the management. Since he wants to rebuild, why bother hiding it?
