As we all know, the Warriors are facing very big salary pressure, so much so that they are in the off season and did not reach a contract extension with any of the main players, but this has a great impact on the stability within the team, especially in the Heat's Silo, and the team reached a 4-year $130 million contract, Poole first retweeted, and wrote "414 ", according to sports sources interpreted Poole's meaning: let the Warriors with 4 years 140 million dollars, with his contract extension. After all, his role is far greater than Herero's.

The Warriors owner is estimated to be anxious at this time, after Poole forward, the Warriors also began to act, in today's big move, while the U.S. media also suggested the Warriors, the Poole trade, how specific, let us look at it together.

One, The Athletic reporter Shams Araucanian broke the news that the Warriors will sign forward Anthony Lamb to a training camp contract that will compete for an at-large spot in the lineup.

Born in 1998, Lamb entered the NBA draft in 2020 but unfortunately fell short, and has since played in the NCAA, where he was able to average 16.7 points and 7.1 rebounds per game.

In the 2021-22 regular season, Lamb played for the Rockets and Spurs.

Two, The Athletic reporter Shams Araucanian broke the news that the Warriors will cut guard Mark Clung. Previously, the Warriors signed Clung to a one-year, non-guaranteed contract.

Clung can find a place in the NBA, with his sharp breakout ability and shooting ability, and he's also pretty good on the defensive end. Clung moved to the Golden State Warriors midway through the summer league after not being able to get more playing time with the Los Angeles Lakers. He was given more opportunities to play in the Warriors lineup, and he signed a training camp contract with the Warriors after the summer league, which included an Exhibit 9 clause.

During the summer league, Clung averaged 13.4 points and 4.8 assists per game.

Third, the U.S. media suggested the Warriors trade Poole to the Magic.

After Herero's contract extension, according to several NBA salary experts' analyses, Poole's next contract will not be lower than Herero's, and it is expected that his next top salary contract will be about 5 years and $177 million.

If Poole is renewed with such a high contract, then the Warriors will have to give up Wiggins, but the Warriors are now on the road to defending their title, Curry is still at the top, Green and Kay are also still in shape, they have every possibility to continue to compete for the title, or even achieve a triple crown dynasty, is also to be expected, so the immediate requirements of the moment will be a little more.

Compared to the role of Poole, Wiggins can better help the Warriors reach their goals, trade Poole is the choice of last resort, unless Poole chooses to take a significant pay cut, but consider this is the first big contract of Poole's career, so the pay cut thing, basically not very realistic. So some American media suggested that the Warriors and the Magic trade, the specific possible program.

Warriors send Poole.

Get the Magic's: Cole Anthony and 2 first-round picks.

Cole Anthony is the 15th draft pick, higher than Poole's position, and is now the Magic's leading guard, some people see him as the next "Rose", in the data, Cole Anthony in his rookie season average can get 12.9 points, 4.7 rebounds and 4.1 assists, in addition to 39.7% shooting from the field and 33.7 percent from 3-point range. In 65 regular season starts last season, he averaged 16.3 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 5.7 assists per game and shot 33.8 percent from 3-point range.

Cole Anthony now has 2 years left on his rookie contract, which will ensure the Warrior's payroll flexibility while not diminishing the Warriors' game too much. Anthony's arrival could completely replace Poole and make an impact off the bench. And there are 2 first-round picks, enough for the Warriors to pick up more potential players.

This trade is also a good place for Poole to go, his relationship with the Magic's first-rounders Banqueter is very good, in this year's off season, they are still training together, so Poole is fully able to integrate well into the team, and he also has championship experience, which is very rare and valuable for the Magic, Banqueter under his influence, progress will also be very fast, just need to patiently grind a few years, the Magic will also be able to go The Magic will be able to compete for the championship.

Overall, the deal has strong penetrability, whether it can be reached, let's wait and see.
