2.1.2 billion wages 18.8 billion luxury tax, the Warriors are the league's most expensive team, $30.8 million, $43.22 million, the Warriors have formed the league's most expensive bench group, Paul and Tang Shen play bench is also suffering, whether Paul gets a high salary this summer depends on Tang Shen's eyes.
In the Warriors' game against the Wizards, Paul returned, and he and Thompson led the Warriors bench, Paul had 9 points and 6 assists, and Thompson had 25 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists.
In the Warriors' game against the Knicks, Paul had 11 points and 6 assists, with a plus/minus of +7, while Thompson had 16 points and 5 rebounds on 6-of-16 shooting, with a plus/minus of -13, which was also a team-high.
Against the Knicks, the Warriors led by as many as 17 points, and Thompson made consecutive iron shots and mistakes in the final quarter, and after the Knicks narrowed the gap to four points, the Warriors changed five main players to open up the difference and seal the victory.
Thompson has played six straight games off the bench, scoring a total of 115 points, scoring 41 goals and making 26 three-pointers, the highest of any bench in the league.
The Warriors have a recent 12-2 record, and there have been a lot of welcome changes to the team since the Warriors put Thompson off the bench.
Thompson said it's rare for two Hall of Fame backcourts to play together on the bench, which makes us dangerous, and Paul can make it easier for me to play, and Paul says it's fun to be on the court and I can play with my teammates.
Paul earned $30.8 million this year, Thompson earned $43.22 million, the NBA's most expensive bench double-gun was born, and the Warriors let two players with a combined salary of 74.02 million play off the bench, which is really a luxury.
The Warriors have won seven consecutive away games since losing to the Hawks on February 4, defeating the Nets, 76ers, Pacers, two wins over the Jazz, Wizards, and Knicks, although these opponents are not very strong, but the Warriors have 31-27 with this wave of 7 consecutive wins and are ranked 10th in the West
Kerr has decided that Thompson will be the substitute, Wiggins has been absent due to personal matters in the last two games, and Moody, who has fallen out of the rotation, has taken the starter, and it is obvious that Thompson will never return to the starting lineup, and the Splash Brothers are dead in name.
Curry has been outstanding lately, hitting at least 70 three-pointers in February, compared to Curry's 13 career 70+ three-pointers in a single month, which is far ahead of any NBA player, and second-place Harden has only four.
If the Warriors want Curry to play well, they must let Podemski partner with Curry, so that Curry can devote himself to offense, in the past, Thompson could be Curry's bodyguard, but now Thompson's athleticism is not as good as the former defensive strength has declined, he will only drag Curry on the court, Kerr let Thompson play on the bench Although it is a last resort, it is for the sake of the team, so that Curry can play better, the Warriors are now 3 wins behind the 6th Pelicans in the West, and the Warriors still have a chance to enter the playoffs directly, So now the Warriors dare not slack off in every game, and if Paul and Thompson establish a tacit understanding to lead the Warriors bench lineup, the Warriors' results will improve.
Paul 4 year 1The 200 million contract expires in 25 years, he earns $30 million next season, Paul's 30 million salary next season is not guaranteed, and the Warriors can only get 30 million if he executes Paul's contract, in a sense, Tang God decides Paul's fate.
Whether Paul can get the 30 million depends on Thompson's eyes, Thompson 5 years 1The $900 million contract expires this summer, and if Thompson leaves the Warriors as a free agent, the Warriors will certainly execute Paul's contract.
If Thompson leaves, it means that the total salary of the Warriors will be reduced by more than 40 million, and if Paul's contract is not executed, the total salary of players with contracts in the Warriors next season will be 1About 300 million, this money is far from the luxury tax ceiling, and the Warriors must match the other party's contract with high-paid players if they want to make a trade to improve the roster, and Paul's salary of 30 million is used to trade to balance the salary.
The Warriors may not need Paul but the Warriors need Paul's expiring contract of 30 million, otherwise the Warriors will not be able to complete the big deal, and if Thompson leaves as a free agent, the Warriors will execute Paul's contract, and Paul will make 30 million pie in the sky.
If Thompson renews his contract with a high salary, such as taking an annual salary of 30 million, the Warriors will have no need to keep Paul, otherwise the Warriors will have to pay a huge luxury tax, and if Thompson takes a salary of 10 million, the Warriors will also execute Paul's contract and trade Paul's expiring contract in the future.
Therefore, whether Paul can get a salary of 30 million next season does not depend on himself, but depends on whether Thompson renews his contract, even if the contract renewal depends on how much salary Tang Shen gets, Paul's current performance is definitely not worth 30 million, but as long as Thompson leaves, the Warriors will let Paul get the 30 million salary, and Paul can only pray to God to let Thompson leave the Warriors this summer.
The bench combination of Paul and Thompson will not last long, the Warriors will not spend more than 70 million to raise two benches, and whether Paul can get a salary of 30 million depends on Thompson's eyes, which is also a serial set. Fans, what do you think about this? Leave me a review**.
