Kawakami: How the Warriors are set to re-sign Durant, Curry, Iguodala and
others
勇士準備如何把KD，SC，AI跟其他人簽下來

前面有一大段省略，直接講重點

The Warriors could feasibly exceed the $127M apron — and pay more luxury tax
— if they have to, but if they go over the apron this July, the Warriors
would have a strong desire not to repeat that next July.
勇士的薪資總額很容易就超過一億兩千七百萬的上限。如果他們今年超過的話，就得繳
豪華稅；不過他們明年應該不會願意再因為超過薪資上限而繳稅。

The Warriors’ payroll was about $102M this past season, FYI.
去年勇士的薪資總額是一億零兩百萬。

Bob Myers & Co. are prepared. They’ve been prepared for this ever since
Curry, Iguodala, Draymond Green and Klay Thompson met with Durant in The
Hamptons last year, because there was no way they were all going through all
of that just for a one-year fling.
勇士制服組已經準備好了。去年當他們與SC，AI，KT，一起跟KD碰面的時候，就已經想
好他們不是為了一年的合約在忙。

That does not mean everything is set in stone. That does not mean everything
will go exactly as Myers, Joe Lacob and everybody else hoped and planned.
不過那不代表一切都已成定局；不代表都會如制服組跟勇士老板Lacob的願。

But they have a financial framework for this, they just fulfilled every
expectation for this season on the basketball court, Durant, Curry and
everybody else are obviously ready to come back for several more title
attempts, and it’s pretty easy to see how this will likely work.


Let’s go step by step…
我們一步一步看。

1. Durant will opt-out of his current deal, and become a free agent again.
This was always the plan. He only signed the one-plus-one (one year at the
max plus a player-option) as insurance against a possible major injury this
season, so he’d have that extra year just in case he wanted it.
He doesn’t need it. He’ll opt-out, as a prelude to…
1. KD會選擇跳出他的合約，成為自由球員。
KD只簽了一個1+1的合約 (一年最高薪資+球員選擇權)，保障KD若是今年受傷的狀況。
但是他今年健康無虞。所以他一定會跳出合約，接下來...

2.  Durant will agree to another one-plus-one deal with the Warriors, similar
to the deal he signed last July, except he likely will take just a 20% raise
to $31.8M, which the Warriors can give him without fitting him into cap space.
2. KD會再簽個一加一的合約(跟去年一樣)，而且願意佛心價只漲薪20%，變成一年三千
一百八十萬鎂。那個不會算在勇士的薪資總額。

If Durant insists on making absolute max (about $35.5M to start), which he is
wholly worth, the Warriors would have to fit him into cap-space again because
they do not have his Full Bird Rights, and to do that they would have to
renounce both Iguodala and Livingston, and lose their Bird Rights to both,
and that would probably mean losing both.
但如果KD堅持要拿頂薪(三千五百五十萬鎂)，勇士因為沒有KD的鳥權，所以就得把KD的薪 
水包括在薪資總額裡；這樣勇士可能就沒辦法簽下AI跟Livingston。

But Durant has given every indication that he will take the 20% raise in
order to give the Warriors the flexibility to pay Iguodala and Livingston
whatever salary necessary above and beyond the cap number.
但是KD已經表明他只會佛心價漲20%，讓勇士制服組有空間可以簽下AI跟Livingston。

By doing this new 1 + 1, Durant would be eligible to receive a “super-max”
 deal of about 4 years, $160M in July 2018 when the Warriors would have his
Early Bird Rights.
KD若簽下這個新的一加一的合約，2018年勇士就會有KD的早鳥權，而KD就可以有一個超
大肥約: 四年一億六千萬。

Which, again, is what is extremely likely to happen.
這也是極有可能發生的。

3. Curry will agree to a “super-max” extension, five years worth about
$205M, but it will not be announced or signed until after all the other deals
are done.
3. SC將會同意簽一個五年兩億零五百萬鎂超大肥約，但這個會等到其他球員的約都簽好   
了才公布。

As I’ve noted many times before, there’s really no strategic reason for
Curry to take a dollar less than the super-max, especially because he has
been so vastly underpaid almost from the moment he signed that four-year,
$44M deal in 2013.
沒有理由SC不值得這份超級大約，他2013年簽的四年四千四百萬鎂實在太低了。

Curry has earned every dollar possible — because he’s a Bird Rights player,
the only thing taking less would affect is Lacob and Guber’s profit level,
and Curry has already contributed more than enough to that.
因為SC有鳥權，拿的多少只會影響到勇士老闆的荷包。

And Lacob told me Monday that the Warriors would do “whatever it takes” to
re-sign Curry.
而且Lacob前幾天也說了，一定會把SC留下來。

There’s your super-max deal.
所以SC的超大肥約GET!

So, presuming Curry and Durant agree to extensions at those starting numbers,
the Warriors would have about $105M committed to seven players + Jason
Thompson’s stretched salary next season.
所以，勇士薪資總額的一億零五百萬鎂包含了以下七個球員跟Jason Thompson：
Curry+Durant+Draymond+Klay+Kevon Looney+Damian Jones+McCaw

And they still have two more annual $945k charges after using the “stretch
provision” to release Jason Thompson last season.
另外勇士得為Jason Thompson的延伸合約多花94.5萬鎂。

The Warriors would be about $22M short of the apron and would still have
Iguodala and Livingston’s potential contracts and many other roster spots to
fill, including somebody to start at center.
所以勇士只剩兩千兩百萬買AI，Livingston，中鋒跟其他輪值球員。

4. Iguodala will likely sign a multi-year extension with the Warriors worth
somewhere between $8M to $12M per year.
4. AI會簽一個多年期的約，會在每年八百到一千兩百萬鎂之間。

Obviously, Iguodala remains an immensely valuable player for the Warriors,
especially when their main rivals feature LeBron James — go to Game 5 of the
Finals for a reminder — and it’s possible Iguodala could get a larger offer
from another team.
AI重要性無庸置疑，看他的Game 5就知道了，他去別的球隊一定可以拿比這個高的多。

But he loves playing for the Warriors, loves the Silicon Valley connection,
loves winning titles (which help out his potential Hall of Fame case),
understands that he is extending his career by playing with so many stars,
and if the Warriors step up with the number of years, this seems like a
relative slam-dunk.
但是AI喜歡在勇士打球，喜歡他目前在加州的地緣，喜歡拿冠軍，所以若是跟勇士簽個多
年合約似乎是更好的主意。

Back in 2013, Iguodala signed for four years, $48M — in a time of a much
smaller cap number, but also when he was 28, not 32, and if you adjust for
all the factors, getting just a little less of an annual salary in exchange
for multi-year stability seems about where this is going to land for Iguodala.
2013年AI簽的是四年四千八百萬鎂，那時他28歲。所以，過了四年，拿少一點，但是是個
多年約似乎對AI來說是個更好的選擇。

Iguodala has already indicated that his negotiation is almost already done
and that he will re-sign with the Warriors, though I’m sure there are still
deal points to be finalized.
AI很早就說他會跟勇士續約，而且很早就在協調。

Months ago a source indicated to me that the only real issue to be worked out
was the number of guaranteed years.
消息來源指出只是卡在年數的問題。

5. Livingston will be a much more open-ended situation and it’s a coin-flip
whether he stays with the Warriors.
5. Livingston就很難說惹。

Notably, Livingston has given every indication that he’d prefer to stay with
the Warriors, and the Warriors clearly would love to bring him back, but both
sides understand that there are many factors in play here.
Livingston也表明想留下來，勇士也想要他留下來，但是中間還有很多因素無法排除。

Livingston, 31, has never made huge money, has been through catastrophic
injury, plays a valuable position, and if he gets a large multi-year offer, it
’s probable that the Warriors won’t match it. Then it’ll be Livingston’s
call, and he deserves the right to make as much money as possible.


But there is some squeeze for Livingston here, coupled with Iguodala’s
situation; let’s say Iguodala lands at $10M next season — that brings the
Warriors within only $12M of the apron, with a lot of other roster spots to
fill.
假設AI只拿一年一千萬鎂，勇士將會只剩一千兩百萬鎂來簽其他球員。

If I had to guess, I’d say the Warriors would hope Livingston comes in at
around $6-7M per, and would not require longer than a two-year deal.
所以勇士很有可能給Livingston一年六到七百萬鎂，不會多過兩年約。

6. After Durant, Curry, Iguodala and Livingston, I don’t think the Warriors
will be interested in offering anything much over the minimum to any other
free agents— and anything over the minimum would strictly be with their
exceptions (tax-payer mid-level being the biggest, at about $5M per to start).

McGee, Ian Clark and James Michael McAdoo and even Matt Barnes if the
Warriors are so inclined.
所以喳喳，大衛西，MyBoy，Ian Clark，麥卡杜，MB大概就是底薪價。

And the Warriors’ payroll isn’t going to go much above $127M this July —
 there are certainly ways their payroll might explode again in 2019 (when
Thompson’s deal is up) or 2020 (when Draymond’s deal is up)…
勇士今年的薪資總額大概不會超過一億兩千七百萬鎂太多；到了2019(KT合約到期)或
2020(嘴綠合約到期)就恐怖惹。

But also, those two players will no longer be in their 20s when that happens,
and that’s a long ways from now, anyway.
不過這兩個球員到時候就不是二字頭的年輕球員，到時候再來傷腦筋吧。

For now, the Warriors aren’t going to be anywhere near $140M-150M this July
or probably even next July, because they’ve got their framework, it’s built
around five guys, and everybody else is going to have to fill in around that…
 or head elsewhere and the Warriors will find other players to fill in,
anyway.
所以勇士今年或明年薪資總額大概會落在一億四千到一億五千萬鎂之間，這兩年就是恐
怖五小配上其他底薪球員。

勇士制服組表示: 底薪拿冠軍，歡迎報名。
