Do the Warriors open the vault to run it back?
After bouncing back from three years of injuries and uncertainty to return to the top of the mountain, the Warriors now face the choice that has bedeviled many a titleist before: whether to keep intact the bulk of the team that just won the championship at an astronomical cost to owner Joe Lacob, or to shuffle the deck in hopes of building a roster that might be equally well suited to defend it, but that will be a little less costly.

Seven Warriors are slated to hit the unrestricted market, headlined by Kevon Looney, Gary Payton II, Otto Porter Jr., and Andre Iguodala. The 26-year-old Looney and 29-year-old Payton, in particular, could generate significant interest. Jordan Poole’s eligible for an extension of his rookie contract after a breakout third season, and could command $25 million per year on a new deal. Andrew Wiggins, fresh off a Finals performance that put to rest years of complaints over an inconsistent motor, is likewise eligible for an extension; his representatives will likely push for “nothing less than the max,” according to Connor Letourneau of the San Francisco Chronicle.


Didn't realize the Warriors are so deep in the luxury tax
Didn’t realize they are so deep? lol oh man

i think this past season the warriors luxury tax was $184 mil and the record high for combined teams in one year was $170 mil 20 years ago

they shattered the record by themselves

also I seen somewhere that if they resign looney and GP2 they would have to pay some crazy ass number just from that

(I can’t remember the number but it’s crazy)

On the flip side, micky Arison be scared to pay a $3 mil luxury tax bill

Every dollar would be 5 with tax. So 8 million becomes approximately 40 million and so on.

We lobbying to have a rule change for taxes to not be so punitive for players that the team has drafted. Last year the whole team was either drafted or on minimum deals, except for Wiggins, and yet here we are.
 
Hopefully people forgot how good he was even before the bubble

Also how you gonna be mad? You got Tucker lol
Too old for that price. I would be happier with a 2 year deal with Philly having a team option for the second year.
