The signings were frustrated! Curry was anxious, Green followed suit and the champion defender was coming back

Due to Kumingga's contract issue, the delay in reaching a consensus, which has led to the subsequent signing operations of the Golden State Warriors. Although the joining of soon-to-be-powered players such as Horford and Melton can temporarily keep the team competitive, Stephen Curry, as the core of the team, cannot accept such a situation. Today, according to the US Records Brandon Robinson, Curry is urging the Warriors management to re-sign the "Star Second Generation" Gary Payton Jr. for such a proposal, Warriors Meritor Chuangmeng agreed with Curry's approach.

Although there is news that Payton Jr. reached an oral franchise agreement with the Warriors, such remarks cannot withstand scrutiny at all. The case of the Spurs and "Mo Shouxin" is the biggest lesson. In order to completely lock in the 32-year-old veteran, it is reasonable for Curry to take the initiative. Given the sharpshooter's influence on and off the court and his important historical position in team history, the management will fully cater to his needs. However, in order to keep Payton Jr., Curry is not just talking. He has completed communication with Payton Jr. This approach undoubtedly shows Curry's position, which means that the Warriors will free up a seat in the remaining 6 standard contracts to sign the defensive strongman.

Although as the son of 75-star Gary Payton, Payton Jr.'s starting point is not high. As a loser, he slowly struggles from the bottom step by step. However, what really makes him gain a foothold in the NBA is indeed to win the championship with the team in 2022. He used his ultimate defense to lock Boston's back line, laying a solid foundation for Curry to win the FMVP. To this day, despite his age and injuries, he is still an indispensable backbone force on the back line. Last season, Peyton played 62 regular season games for the Warriors, and Perton averaged 6.5 points, 3 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game. Perhaps the data level is not impressive, but its role is unquestionable.

His coverage on the defensive end and the tenacity he showed just can play a huge role in Steve Cole's tactical system. The most important thing is that as a player with D and not more than 3, he can perfectly adapt to the offensive system of the Splash Brothers, which is a rare puzzle for the championship. In addition, Payton Jr. has extremely high attainments in the defense ability of the ball-holder. While assisting and supplementing the defense, he can also cause the opponent's mistakes; as for the offensive end, his role is simple and direct. It is to use tactical running and empty-cutting opponents' penalty area to complete the end. Such effective scoring methods have been tried and tested.

Since Curry intervened in the matter, the signing has jumped from a possibility to a priority. At first, everyone thought that the matter would settle down at this point, but they did not expect that Dream-Chasing Green would also perform an unexpected move. He took the initiative to stand in Curry's camp and expressed his firm support and recognition for the management's decision to sign Payton II. Although this action did not express pressure, it added invisible pressure to General Manager Dunleavy in a subtle way. Since the two bigwigs in the team have publicly expressed their attitude, if nothing unexpected happens, the signing will probably be settled soon, even earlier than Kumingga.
