A recent trade from the Warriors was clearly exciting. The addition of Schroder will significantly boost the Warriors' immediate strength. It also gives the Warriors a better chance to compete for the playoffs and even the championship.
Many fans have found that the Warriors have always been a very aggressive team, and they are very decisive in their trades and do not hesitate in the slightest. When they have a good chip, they will firmly choose to negotiate with other teams and do everything they can to strengthen their roster. Sometimes there are no trade rumors in the free market, but they have a deal and belong to a team that is very decisive.
Recently, Warriors owner Lacob also talked about the team's future plans. He talked about the future Warriors' goal is to win as much as possible, which means his team can't possibly mess up. It's easy to understand that Lacob is a venture capital expert, and he knows all too well the positive impact that winning can have on a team. If a team keeps losing, the team's market value will go all the way down, and the Warriors have managed to rely on Curry's influence to multiply their market value several times in the last decade, and he can't tolerate the team's market value falling.
So the Warriors have a very aggressive owner, and they don't hesitate to pay a huge luxury tax in order to win, in order to compete for a championship. The Warriors have consistently ranked among the league's top luxury tax payments in recent years. Even in order to win, they are willing to pay hundreds of millions of luxury taxes a season. Such an owner is something that any star would want to play for, because in such a team there is hope for a star.
So this is why many fans want James to take a pay cut to join the Warriors. Because James' current Lakers team does not have such a bold owner. They seem reluctant to invest too much in the team and seem to have gotten into a bad mood. Even the management did nothing, although there were many rumors of deals, but very few were actually reached. If a superstar doesn't have the help of good teammates, he won't be able to reach the top. There is an obvious problem with the Lakers' current roster, and anyone can see it. But they didn't choose to solve it in the offseason, which is intolerable to many fans.
If James is on the Warriors, then Warriors owner Lacob may rely on the influence of James and Curry as much as possible to strengthen the lineup in an all-round way, maximize the influence of the two, and help James win the championship as much as possible. That's the impact a good owner can have on a team. In fact, when Durant left, the strength of the Warriors has declined significantly, and they have also experienced the dilemma of not making the playoffs in a row. However, the management did not give up the desire to be promoted to the championship, and still improved the team through various reinforcements. That's what sets the Warriors apart from other teams, where players are always hopeful.
