Why do warriors earn more? Hun Xing Jun thinks there are two points.
First: White Wolf in disguise. At that time, Durant had chosen to jump out of the contract and become a completely free agent. He could have signed a contract directly with the Brooklyn Nets, just as Owen joined the Nets directly, but Durant didn't. Instead, he signed a contract with the Warriors, let the Warriors trade with the Nets, and sent him to Brooklyn.
The chips that the warriors got were actually very rich. Among them, Russell, who has just been selected as an All-Star, has a big deal with them. Seeing this, there will definitely be fans questioning Hunhunjun, knowing that the Warriors can't get any chips. They were very angry with Durant in the finals of 17- 18, so we must look at it on this basis!
Sign first and then change, the warrior is really a disguised white wolf!
Second: the salary space is released. After sending Durant away, the Warriors renewed their contracts with Clay Thompson and Rooney, and then paved the way for Green's renewal. Meanwhile, they had to send Iguodala away.
If Durant doesn't leave, according to the statistics of American media, the luxury tax and salary of Warriors will be as high as 380 million, which is very scary. Durant's signing before trading can be said to have solved the big problem of the Warriors, and he also won more than 30 million special deals, thus signing Russell, laying the foundation for the Warriors to build a four-star lineup.
To sum up, the management of the Warriors is a shrewd businessman! When they sent Durant away after his achilles tendon broke, they also drained Durant of his last value. Durant could have left directly, but Durant didn't. This is also the reason why Durant has won two consecutive championships in the Warriors!
