Even Curry realized that they were going to compete for a championship this year as best they could. In addition to Curry's age, the Warriors may also have a major change in their roster, as there are many key players in the current Warriors roster whose contracts will fully expire this offseason and become free agents, and it is still unknown whether they will be able to stay with the team.

Among these players in the Warriors, there are three important players whose contracts expire the most worthy of the attention of fans, they are Kuminga, Looney and Payton Jr., Kuminga needless to say, he is a player at the starting level of the Warriors, with or without him, the Warriors' immediate combat power is completely different, and if Kuminga does not stop injured during this time, the Warriors may become stronger. And Looney is also one of the few pillars of the Warriors' current interior line, at present, Jackson Davis Jr. has been abandoned by Kerr, only Looney and Post are two people to top the Warriors' interior, if there is less Looney, the Warriors' interior will be more vulnerable.

And Payton Jr. is the Warriors' outside defensive giant, and Curry's defensive pressure has been greatly reduced after having Payton Jr. There are a lot of top guards in the West, so with Payton Jr., the Warriors have a guy who can lock up the opponent's arrowheads, which is reassuring for Kerr.

So any one of these three players leaving the Warriors would be doing damage to the Warriors. But it may be difficult for the Warriors to keep all three players at the same time, as they will face hefty luxury tax pressure. This means that one of the three champions could leave.

After Butler joined the Warriors, their salary began to explode, and if Kuminga was re-signed, it could be another contract close to the maximum salary, and the Warriors' salary space would become very tight. Including some of the Warriors' bench fringe players, their contracts will also expire fully this summer. So the Warriors are bound to have a big change in the offseason, so that's why Curry emphasized that this year is their chance to win the championship. Because after this year, everything may be different.
