Burning passion into Golden State? In the 18th season of Westbrook s career, it s time to join forces with Curry

After the free market was opened, some teams attacked hard and decisively created a new lineup, which was bound to seek change, while some teams remained silent and kept lurking in reinforcement, but missed many big fish one after another. Even the Lakers began to act. Even if they let go of the core forward Finney Smith, they could introduce the young Laravia, and more importantly, sign Ayton with a low salary to make up for the last shortcomings in the inside. The Warriors, who are both a traffic squad with the Lakers, have not made any move yet. They have lost the championship hero Looney, but there is no compensation for any signings. In fact, the Warriors' lineup is definitely imperfect, and there are two biggest problems. One is like the Lakers, with too few inside resources, although the Warriors' fast-paced pass-and-cut style may not be so dependent on the center.

But there is only one center in the team - after sending away Looney, the Warriors only have one center left. The second problem is that they need to deal with Kuminga. The process of last season has shown that Kumingga is not suitable for this Warriors. In the playoffs where he played for more than 20 minutes, the Warriors had a total of 0 wins and 7 losses, without any wins. Kumingga and the Warriors are not happy, and he has a bad relationship with Cole, and he also wants to leave the Warriors and go to other teams to develop, which will have greater room for improvement. If the Warriors can make good use of Kumingga's value and get a quasi-star-level reinforcement through trading, the pressure on the whole team will be much less. Of course, the Warriors also need to leave a way out for them, that is, if they cannot trade out of Kumingga, so that they have to seek reinforcement in the free market.

In the free market, the player with the most frequent rumors with the Warriors is veteran Horford. There are very few centers left. It is necessary for the Warriors to sign Horford, but they have competitors, and the Lakers are also providing quotations for Horford. In fact, the Warriors not only need to fill the loopholes in the inside line, they also need to consider introducing No. 1 guard to reduce the burden on Curry to hold the ball. Everyone knows that the Warriors have many defenders, but they are basically shooting guards. Like Hilde, Podjemsky, and Moody, they don’t have the ability to organize and control the field. There are also many defenders in the market. It is said that the Warriors targeted three people, one was Lillard, one was Chris Paul, and the other was Westbrook. After being cut by the Bucks, Li became a free agent.

However, the price for the Warriors to pay him is too high, and Lillard may not be able to return due to an Achilles tendon injury next season. Another Paul, who had worked with the Warriors a year ago, had average results and limited influence. In addition, Paul is still pursuing the conditions for starting, and the Warriors cannot give it. It seems that Westbrook is more suitable for this Warriors. Westbrook did not play well with the Lakers before. The big reason is that the Lakers team's pace is too slow. Westbrook prefers fast teams, and the Warriors are just enough to satisfy them. On the other hand, Westbrook received a maximum salary during the Lakers era, which was too premium. Now Westbrook has long accepted the reality of his decline in value. He is willing to join the team he wants to go to for a basic salary. He insists on playing in the league for no money and loves it. Westbrook with a basic salary is definitely a hot commodity for the Warriors. After becoming a free agent, Westbrook also expressed his opinion that he wanted to be closer to his hometown. His family currently lives in Los Angeles. He wants to go to a team closer to Los Angeles. The Warriors just fit. San Francisco is only more than 600 kilometers away from Los Angeles, and the plane is only more than an hour away. When we come to the Warriors, Westbrook may still have hope of competing for the championship. After all, Curry and Butler join forces, and the team's basic balance is still there. No matter how bad the playoffs are, it can be guaranteed that this season, the Warriors' ability to eliminate the Rockets, the second in the West, in the first round, has proved their strength. If Curry had not been injured early in the second round, they would definitely have the possibility of going further. Although this Warriors are average in height, their inside data are not bad at all. During the regular season, the Warriors ranked fifth in the league with rebounds averaged 45.4 per game, and third in the league with steals averaged 9.4 per game.

Let's talk about the adaptability between Westbrook and the Warriors. In addition to the rhythm that can be fully matched, the Warriors also need Westbrook, a player with a certain insider lethality, Curry's ending efficiency at the basket has declined significantly in recent years, and his scoring has become increasingly dependent on outside shooting. Butler's scoring has to slowly chisel inside, not using impact. Kumingga, the only lethal force in the team, is in a very awkward situation now and does not want to stay in the Warriors. Westbrook is not young now, but his enthusiasm and impact are still online in all aspects. In addition, Westbrook's experience and Westbrook's ball-holding organization are very valuable to the Warriors. With his comprehensive personal attributes, he can even serve as a part of the dream-chasing Green. Burn passion into Jinzhou! Having worked with James, Durant, Harden, Jokic, and Kat, so many top super giants, it's time to join forces with Curry to try it. The Warriors are fighting for the next few years. After Butler leaves and Curry retires, they can consider a complete reconstruction.
