The general manager of the Warriors is dissatisfied with spending 400 million to miss the playoffs, and he is ready to reduce expenses in the offseason, and Klay must go

After the Golden State Warriors were eliminated by the Kings in the 2023-24 playoff round, the team also entered the 2024 offseason ahead of schedule, and for the Golden State Warriors, the offseason is bound to make some adjustments, hoping that the team's roster and competitiveness will become higher.

There are a few issues that Golden State Warriors management needs to address, such as Klay Thompson's departure. The Golden State Warriors' new general manager, Mike Dunleavy, who signed just last year, said that while the team has no financial limits, they will remain cautious because they have spent about $400 million in the 2023-24 season, but the team can't even make the playoffs.

It can't be helped, the Golden State Warriors' roster is aging too much this season. Draymond Green, Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Chris Paul and Gary Payton II are all veterans in their thirties and are also at the end of their careers.

According to The Athletic's Anthony Wright, the Golden State Warriors believe that the roster is not too old and that it is still too early because the 2024 offseason will see the Golden State Warriors make a big change to make them a championship-capable team again.

Dunleavy said: "You know how willing Joe is to spend money and compete. I don't think there will be any restrictions, but we will also be cautious. Putting a team that can't make the playoffs on the court, like we spent $400 million this year, I wouldn't recommend that. ”

For any NBA general manager, with the Golden State Warriors' spending this season, it is an absolute failure. The team's player salaries, plus a massive luxury tax, add up to $400 million. After the regular season, you have to play the playoff play-offs, and you can't even touch the playoff floor.

The Golden State Warriors have decided to make big changes in the 2024 offseason, and they may be the first to clean up Chris Paul and Klay Thompson. Because the two have a combined salary of about $75 million this season, but they have achieved nothing in the playoff play-offs.

Klay Thompson will either take a pay cut to renew his contract, or sign and trade and leave, and the team will focus on a good get-together and a good reputation. As for Chris Paul, he is about a month old, he will be 39 years old, and if he wants to stay with the team, he can only re-sign the contract, and the Warriors may give him a two-year, $20 million contract, the second year is insecure, or a veteran base salary contract.
