The Golden State Warriors' regrettable loss to the Kings marked the end of the season, sparking a lot of speculation about the team's future roster. Among them, the question of Klay Thompson and Draymond Green has become the most eye-catching trade focus for the Warriors this summer.
Klay Thompson's form has been up and down this season, and the issue of a contract extension has been up and down. The Warriors have tried to get an early extension with Thompson by reducing the length and amount of his contract, but Thompson has not been able to accept it. This has led to speculation about whether the Warriors will drop the former champion this summer. After all, Thompson's declining form over the past two seasons and his high salary have put a heavy burden on the team.
Fortunately, Thompson's contract will end this summer, and if Thompson is willing to concede, I believe the Warriors will be willing to give him a suitable contract. Meanwhile, Draymond Green's contract is also set to expire in the coming years. As a defensive stalwarts, Green has been praised for his playoff performances in previous championship seasons.
However, as he got older, his offensive ability declined further, which also made his position in the team delicate. Whether the Warriors will consider trading Green in exchange for a younger, more promising player has also become the focus of fans.
Of course, the Warriors' decisions aren't just based on player form and salary. Curry is the core of the team, and his opinions and attitudes will also have a significant impact on the team's trade decisions. Curry has repeatedly expressed a desire to keep his current roster, which has undoubtedly added a layer of complexity to the Warriors' trade decision.
Overall, whether or not the Warriors will make a major roster shake this summer depends on a number of factors. Teams need to weigh players' form, salary, potential, and the team's overall strategy. Regardless of the decision that is ultimately made, I am afraid that one thing that is certain is that it will be difficult for them to get back to the top, and it is more likely that they will rebuild.
