Siakam rejected the Warriors before joining the Pacers! Are there really any stars willing to come to the Chase Center?

Now it seems that Bob Myers, who single-handedly created the Warriors' glory, chose to leave last offseason, which was the right decision.

The team's high salaries and luxury tax spending, the aging core roster, the disintegrating locker room atmosphere, and the management that he wants all made it difficult for him as a manager to take the Warriors out of the quagmire, and he simply walked away.

The world sings the praises of the great captain who lived and died with the ship on the Titanic, but most of them chose to escape by flash when facing capsizing.

And now it seems that perhaps there may be an important unspeakable hidden when Miles is gone, namely

The Warriors' appeal to NBA stars today is very different from what they were in previous years.

According to The Athletic's Sam Amick, the Warriors showed a huge interest in the just-completed Pacers-Raptors trade for Siakam, but Siakam himself rejected the Warriors and ultimately let the deal fall through without guaranteeing a future contract extension.

So Warriors fans really don't blame the management bastards, maybe they have already given Kuminga + Moody both hands, but Siakam doesn't like you.

Once upon a time, with the rise of the Warriors, they won the favor of many peers with their high-tech play, location advantages in the Bay Area, and the strong strength of Curry and Klay.

The most obvious example is Iguodala, who longed for the Warriors as early as the Nuggets, and was even willing to give up his pride that he had never played as a substitute after joining, which made the later good story.

Even if the main players in the team later won high salaries one by one, the team did not have the space to directly sign top stars, and there were also famous stars such as David West and Cousins who joined at a broken price.

Not to mention the fact that they went out to convince Kevin Durant, who had just been defeated by themselves, in the Hamptons.

The players are not stupid, they all play in the same league, and they naturally know where to play more comfortably under hearsay, and they can maximize their value.

The Bay Area has the world's technology business center like Silicon Valley, and there are countless celebrities and bigwigs, who can develop contacts in it and benefit immensely from retiring in the future, and the reason why Iguodala is willing to be here for so many years is for his investment career.

In the team lineup, Curry and Klay are in their prime, their style of play does not occupy the ball, their character is excellent and selfless, they can't stand the grievances off the court, and they are happy on the court.

And the Warriors themselves are also trying their best to create a winning culture in accordance with the atmosphere of the Spurs back then, not only Curry's gentleness as the top card is well known, but the team has also created an environment where everyone is for me and I am for everyone.

They were willing to give the stadium security guard a one-day trial contract to fulfill his professional dreams, and they made troubled kids like McGee and Nick Young champions, and they took turns supporting each other's charity events organized by the team members.

It's like announcing to the entire NBA and the world

Not only do we have the best basketball, the best leaders, but also the most exciting team culture.

But when did all this change?

It's probably the trash talk that Dream made history with Durant against the Clippers in November 2018

"We were champions before you came. ”

In the live broadcast at that time, people saw for the first time Durant's helplessness after coming to the Warriors. As a latecomer, he was probably most mindful of the idea that he was hitchhiking, although anyone who watched the game would be convinced by his contribution during those two titles.

But in that national live broadcast, he was once again brought out by his teammates to laugh and be generous.

If this was just an impulsive mistake caused by the game, maybe the two teammates had many solutions in a man's way afterwards, but the fact is that at that time, he, Durant, and Klay were all facing contract renewal problems at the end of the season, and judging from the Warriors' salary situation at that time, the Warriors either extended two of the three with the highest salary, or the three took a salary cut together.

The latter is obviously unlikely, then the most likely function is "two peach kills three soldiers".

What Dream Chasing did to Durant was, of course, for money.

Wherever you Durant goes, you will be the boss and get the top salary, but if I chase my dream and leave the Warriors and Curry, how can I make a lot of money?

The final ending is that Durant broke his Achilles tendon in the finals and switched to Brooklyn, chasing his dream and renewing his contract with the team.

At the same time, as the rookies selected by the Warriors after winning the championship are more and more bizarre, from Damian Jones, Evans to the long-awaited Wiseman, except for Looney, all of them are full of wastewood.

And so people also realized,

It turns out that not everyone who goes to the warrior can be like entering the Taishang Laojun alchemy furnace and refining it into steel.

The 22-year championship is the last courage of the old warriors, plus the happy ending of the right time and place and all in place. But the management and core figures misjudged it as "the original NBA is still Lao Tzu's world".

continued to start the both want to win the championship and train the next generation, and the result was that Poole, the only one in the new generation, and the old generation's dream chasing once again broke out directly because of the renewal issue.

In the end, the punch of chasing dreams not only knocked Poole out of Cao Ying's heart, but also forced the team management to open a four-year 128 million contract to avoid disaster.

After this, the warriors, all of you eat too ugly.

After being eliminated by old rival LeBron last season, the team finally chose to stay in the dream of four years and 100 million and sent Poole away.

Once again, it proves that they are being held to death by the pursuit of exquisite and self-interested dreams:

I fight opponents, I fight teammates, I'm not a good person, but you just can't do without me.

This season, he has intensified his efforts, directly using the court as a wrestling arena, rear-naked choking Gobert and swinging Nurkic, which directly made the Warriors game inappropriate for children.

The only contribution was probably that the team saved more than 8 million dollars in luxury tax.

Add to that almost all their opponents, plus God, don't seem to want them to have a good time.

was overturned by 20+ in a row, lost to the Grizzlies three times, Paul was injured, the assistant coach passed away, and the bad luck you thought of not finding followed.

The wall fell down and everyone pushed it, the broken drum was beaten by thousands of people, and the bullets that were once fired were stopped into boomerangs.

Who do you say is the fault of the current warriors?

Maybe it's a hit, after all, it seems that it takes years for every great team to recover after a huge success, except for the Los Angeles Lakers, who have a succession of superstars.

Maybe it's the owner, but there is no team in history that can live a beautiful life while winning a championship and building the next generation.

Maybe it's chasing dreams, and he has been making waves in every important turning point of the Warriors in recent years.

But is Stephen Curry not responsible? No one seems to dare to say.

Without his support and reliance on Dream Chasing, this neurotic would have been swept away when he was sprayed against Durant, and the damage to the locker room from openly punching teammates was like cancer.

If he hadn't hoped that "the three brothers would grow old with the Warriors", probably the team management would not have been so indulgent to the veterans, and they would always be morally passive when negotiating contract extensions.

Curry's pursuit of the trio is probably like the Spurs' GDP to the end of the championship contenders, and the curtain down in the playoffs. It's not like the current team that sees who is beaten by whom, and even the top 10 play-off line is losing farther and farther.

He has to understand that the total salary of the three in 2016 is only 20 million, which is almost equal to the new signing Aldridge.

And he himself will take the league's top $59.6 million until the 2025-26 season.

The Spurs' three old men have given up more than $100 million throughout their careers to help the team ease salary pressure, but since Curry's "child labor contract" ended in 2017, the three of them have never conceded on contract issues.

If you want to replicate GDP, why?

Nowadays, a star like Siakam who has a little bit of ego probably won't think about the Warriors.

First, there is a lesson from Durant's past, if he doesn't play well, he will be scolded, and if he is in the limelight of stealing the boss, he will be scolded or even beaten.

Second, Curry has a stable salary in the team, even if the Warriors are willing to cut the meat and give him another share, what does Klay next to him think, and what does the dream chasing next to him think, it is a neurosis.

In the end, everyone knows how promising the Warriors are in the wolf-like West, where the Warriors can play too old and young with their own missing games.

Now I'm afraid that only by inviting regular season killers like Embiid and Brother Alphabet can we revive our glory, but the key is

Do you want to be the next Durant?
