On December 17, Beijing time, Warriors general manager Mike Dunleavy was interviewed and talked about the 5-for-2 trade they completed. Previously, the Warriors sent Melton, Beekman and three second-round picks in exchange for Schroder and a second-round pick for the Nets.

Speaking about Schroder (13 million expiring contract), Dunleavy said: "We still think he has many more years to play. We will have his Byrd clause and the right to renew his contract. Hopefully, the relationship will last longer, not just months. ”

Reflecting on Schroder's impact on the Warriors, Dunleavy said: "It's no secret that we need to improve our offensive capabilities, and sometimes it's the right thing to do with a change in philosophy. ”

As for the role of the Warriors star in the deal, Dunleavy also responded. "Those guys (Curry and Dreamcatcher) didn't knock on my door. They never do that...... Will I keep them informed? Yes. Do they approve of this move? Yes...... It's a clean process. They agreed. Steve (Cole) agrees. ”

Dunleavy also spoke about the current state of the Warriors. 'We're willing to do anything to make the team better. With Curry, Dream on the lineup, and Kerr as coach, we're in a time frame to maximize our chances...... For the most part, I feel good about this team, especially on the defensive end, and now we've added a player who we think can create more attacking opportunities for us. ”

So far this season, the Warriors are 14-11 and temporarily ranked 8th in the West. Schroder, who previously played in 23 games for the Nets, averaging 18.4 points, three rebounds and 6.6 assists per game, is expected to make his Warriors debut against the Grizzlies on Friday.
