In fact, Iguodala is not necessary for the current Warriors.
Kirilenko is no worse than Iguodala, and Hayward's offensive ability is even at least one level better than Iguodala!
But these two people will not stay with the Warriors for a long time, and they can only stay with the Warriors for one season at most!
In fact, it is not just these two people, but also Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian, Middleton, Lowry and others.
So Iguodala is a must!
There is no shop like this after passing this village!
Next year is Iguodala's contract year, and he chose to opt out of his contract this summer and became a free agent.
If Iguodala is not captured this year, there is no telling what the situation will be like next year.
Historically, the Warriors also captured Iguodala at this time.
In the offseason that year, the Warriors first sent Richard Jefferson, Biedrins, Brandon Rush and multiple future draft picks to the Jazz, including the 2014 first-round pick.
Jazz acquire guard Kevin Murphy.
The Warriors have only one purpose in doing this, and that is to free up salary space.
After freeing up salary space, the first thing the Warriors signed was Iguodala. They reached an agreement and the "first brother" got a four-year contract with a total price of 48 million US dollars, thus entering Golden State.
Prior to this, it was reported that the Kings originally wanted to offer Iguodala a large contract of 52 million, but then the Kings withdrew the offer.
Then Iguodala returned to the negotiating table with his old club, the Nuggets, and the Nuggets also offered a five-year contract worth a total of $63 million.
To be honest, the Nuggets' offer is very sincere and has already given Iguodala a lot of face.
But in the end Iguodala chose to join the Warriors!
Not for anything else, just because of Curry!
In the historical 12-13 season playoffs, the Warriors and the Nuggets battled for 6 games. In the end, the Warriors won. Curry also rose to prominence that year and officially became a dazzling star in the league.
The win or loss of that series was secondary. What attracted the most attention was the news that Iguodala "had an affair" with his opponent.
The Nuggets coach at the time, George Karl, saw that his team was about to be eliminated. In order to turn things around, Karl used a crooked idea. He was going to use a dirty trick to arrange for his players to "destroy" Curry on the court.
However, Karl's approach aroused strong dissatisfaction with Nuggets core Iguodala, and Iguodala tipped off Curry privately, reminding him to be careful of evil hands, and Curry also avoided an "accident"
"happened!
Of course, all of this was just a rumor at the time, and Iguodala and Curry did not come forward to respond publicly.
However, in an exclusive interview with the media a few years later, Curry finally admitted all this for the first time.
At that time, reporters asked Curry, if he were to go to an isolated island, which Warriors player would he take with him?
What is surprising is that Curry's answer is neither his good buddy Thompson, nor Green and Durant, but Iguodala!
The reporter asked tentatively: "Is it because he reminded you that the Nuggets wanted to hurt you?" Curry responded: "Well, that's right!"
The matter finally came to light here, and Curry publicly acknowledged the incident for the first time.
In fact, when Curry won the regular season MVP in 2015, he implicitly thanked Iguodala, saying that the conversation two years ago (referring to 2013) was of great significance and would be something he would never forget.
It is worth mentioning that in the summer of that year, Iguodala chose to leave the Nuggets to join the Warriors, while Nuggets coach George Karl was unexpectedly fired by the team after winning the league's best coach!
Iguodala is known as the First Brother. He is tough defensively and has a tough style. However, no one in the league said that the First Brother is dirty. Almost everyone respects him.
The only person Iguodala can value and sacrifice his own interests for is Curry!
It is for these reasons that Deng Fang wanted to bring Iguodala over first.
It's time for the best warrior time in your heart to come back!
Is this Warriors strong now?
powerful!
Were the Warriors from the previous four years great?
sharp!
But this warrior is still a miscellaneous army after all, put together by Deng Fang. Except for the core Splash Brothers, most of them are casual soldiers, and the team's cohesion is limited.
Many people came here just because of Deng Fang's magic.
But Deng Fang knows that the soul and core of this warrior is actually Curry!
As time goes by, as the number of champions increases, the system will impose more and more restrictions on Deng Fang.
Once this season is over, the 14-15 Warriors in history will be the champions. Therefore, the system requires that once this season is over, Deng Fang will not be able to trade players casually, and his ability to treat diseases will also be limited.
In that case, in addition to experience, Deng Fang can rely on Curry!
Therefore, Deng Fang must make arrangements in advance to assemble the Warriors lineup that he has always dreamed of, so that they can cooperate as soon as possible.
Historically, although Iguodala joined the Warriors consensually, he actually joined the Warriors through a sign-and-trade.
Because this benefits all three parties.
Historically, the Warriors, Nuggets and Jazz have reached a three-party trade agreement. Iguodala, who has already signed with the Warriors, will join in a sign-and-trade, and the Jazz will send Randy Foye in a sign-and-trade.
He went to the Nuggets and received a draft pick from the Warriors.
As the protagonist of the deal, Andre Iguodala will be sent to the Warriors and receive a four-year, $48 million contract.
The Warriors did it for salary space, the Jazz did it to make some money, and the Nuggets didn't want to lose Iguodala in vain.
The warriors back then could only do this, but the warriors of today don't need to be so complicated.
Because the Warriors have cap space!
Because the Warriors have enough chips!
For Iguodala, he already wants to leave the Nuggets, so where is the best place to go?
More money, less work and close to home!
Obviously, Warriors is the best choice!
The Warriors have no shortage of pitchers. They have money and salary space. The Warriors are located near Silicon Valley in San Francisco, the richest area in the United States!
All this is a great attraction!
The only question is whether the Warriors want him!
The Warriors already have a series of defensive heroes in Kirilenko, Tucker, Hayward, and Ariza. Do they still need Iguodala?
Deng Fang gave a clear answer-need!
Not only needed, but needed very much!
Deng Fang personally called Iguodala to recruit him to join.
Money issues are easy to talk about, exactly the same as in history!
Iguodala didn't hesitate and immediately agreed to Deng Fang's request!
