Offs are the capital carnival. According to statistics from NBA famous reporter Keith Smith, the defending champion Thunders spent 807 million US dollars this summer, ranking first among all teams, with the 2nd-5th place being the Spurs (348 million US dollars), the Mavericks (339 million US dollars), the Grizzlies (324 million US dollars) and the Rockets (297 million US dollars). It is worth mentioning that as of now, the Warriors have not spent 1 cent, and they are also the only team among the 30 teams in the league with zero operations. The Warriors are not short of money and have been willful, but they were killed by Kumingga this offseason, and their prospects are worrying.

NBA famous reporter Keith Smith also counted another set of data. During this offseason, 30 teams spent a total of US$4.8 billion, of which the total amount of early renewal was as high as US$2.3 billion, accounting for nearly 50%! At the same time, all contracts with a total amount of more than US$130 million this summer are renewed early, and in terms of free agent signing, the largest contract is the Timberwolves' Reed, who signed a five-year, US$125 million contract. In other words, NBA teams will not risk allowing top stars to test the free market, and top stars also know how to put their pockets in order to avoid long nights of dreams. On the other hand, Kumingga and the Warriors have become their bond, but they have no intention of rushing in both directions, and there are signs of drifting away.

Kuminga's rookie contract has expired, but his contract renewal negotiations with the Warriors have changed from a tug-of-war to a soap opera! As the offseason began, the Warriors offered a one-year, $7.9 million qualification quotation contract for Kuming, who became a restricted free agent. Kumingga is arrogant and insists on asking for a big contract with an annual salary of more than US$30 million, and is eager to get a starting seat. Looking at the entire NBA league, only the Kings (80-88 million US dollars in four years) and the Suns (63-66 million US dollars in three years) had the idea of ​​signing for Kumingga. Facing reality, Kumingga did not choose to compromise, but dragged it to the end! Judging from the current situation, Kumingga chooses 1 in the future 3!

First, accept a quotation of 7.9 million US dollars in one year and stay behind the Warriors! There is no need to describe the risks of signing a qualification quotation contract. According to statistics from the NBA official website, from 2018 to the present, only Kobashi Bridges has signed a qualification quotation contract. Later, he signed a large contract, and Ryan, Noel, Hood, Valentine and others have gradually faded out of the league. Even so, according to the US media, Kumingga is mentally prepared to accept qualification quotations, just to gain freedom tomorrow summer. Of course, Kumingga's team is bold and meticulous and well prepared. According to the NBA famous reporter Shams, once Kumingga accepts the qualification quotation, they will purchase value loss insurance to ensure their own interests.

Secondly, accept a quotation of 75.2 million US dollars in three years and strive for player options. During several rounds of contract renewal negotiations between Kumingga and the Warriors, the Warriors have made compromises and raised their offer. According to the quotes from US media, the latest quote given by the Warriors is US$75.2 million in three years, with a guaranteed amount of US$48 million in the first two seasons. The last year is the team option, and Kumingga gave up the first year's trade veto. This is the biggest quote that the Warriors can give in their salary space, and they are full of sincerity. In a sense, the amount of the guaranteed contract is still very attractive to Kumingga, and they only reject the team options. In the words of Kumingga's agent, if the Warriors turn the team option into the player option, Kumingga will sign and will do his best to help Curry compete for the championship.

Finally, wait for the king to sign and change the plan and find another way out to prove himself. According to a famous NBA reporter Tim, Kumingga knew that the Warriors didn't really need him. He would rather not maximize his income than find an environment that would allow him to flourish. During this offseason, Kumingga has maintained high-intensity training. If he doesn't want to play again, he doesn't want to waste his time. He urgently needs a stable role positioning and playing time to realize his talent. He believes that he is expected to become an All-Star player. To be precise, Kumingga wanted to go to the King, but the problem was that the King's offer never impressed the Warriors. US media pointed out incisively: If the king was willing to put Keegan Murray into the transaction plan, Kumingga would have gotten what he wanted long ago.

Love is at the end, and it is hard to collect it! There are only 10 days left before the new season training camp begins, and the confrontation between Kumingga and the Warriors continues. Kumingga is sure to win and wants to delay, but the Warriors can't afford it. The backyard is on fire and the crisis is everywhere! According to Warriors reporter Dalton Johnson, Butler has contacted the Warriors management to ask Coominga what the situation is and he wants to know what the team's plan is! The implication is: I came to the Warriors to join forces with Curry to win the championship, but you were defended by Kumingga. How can you start to compete for the championship? Time is tight and the tasks are heavy, so there is not much time left for the Warriors to operate! Fans, what do you think about this? Let me leave me a comment and discuss it.
