Durant 2 years $ 53 million renewal warrior

Kevin Durant and the Warriors reached a renewal agreement, the two sides signed a two-year $ 53 million contract. If the accident is not the case, the contract will be a 1 + 1 contract, 2018-19 season set as a player option, starting salary is far lower than Durant should get the salary, he kept the Warriors Andre - Iguodala and Sean - Livingston pay about $ 9 million.



Durant renewals warriors keep ho array

Durant September 30, 1988 born, 28 years old, more than 210 cm tall, is the 2007 Thunder's second place show, now playing in the NBA for 10 seasons. He joined the Warriors in the summer of 2016, 2016-17 season regular season averaged 25.1 points and 8.3 rebounds and 4.8 assists 1.6 blocks 1.1 steals, hit rate of 53.7%, three percentage hit rate of 37.5%.

Durant played better in the 2017 playoffs, averaging 28.5 points, 7.9 rebounds and 4.3 assists and 1.3 blocks, shooting 55.6 percent from the field, averaging 44.2 percent from the field, averaging 2.5 points. He was in the finals is courageous, averaging 35.2 points and 8.2 rebounds and 5.4 assists 1.6 steals 1 steals, hit rate of 55.6%, three percentage hit rate of 47.4%, averaging 3.6 points in the three, won the total Final MVP.

Before the renewal of Durant, the Warriors 5 years $ 203 million contract Stephen - Curry, 3 years 24 million Renewal Livingston, 3 years 48 million renewal Iguodala, one year at the end of the contract David - West, coupled with the contract in the Clay - Thompson and Drummond - Green, the Warriors retained most of the core line last season. Now Durant renewed, the Warriors four giants homing, the new season defending will become easy.



In fact, compared to the promotion of Livingston and Andre Iguodala, Durant and Curry renewal of the most suspense, the difference lies only in the two pay cut. Curry use the designated veteran general renewal warriors, 5 years total amount reached 203 million US dollars, indicating that he did not pay, but the top grid renewal. It is also understandable that since Curry had a contract of only $ 44 million for four years, it was the most inexpensive contract for the NBA.

Durant paid about $ 9 million to stay

Andre Iguodala and the Warriors for the first time to renew the contract, the two sides talked very happy, the annual salary finalized between 800-1200 million, only the amount of protection and the number of years did not talk, but finally broke up. Andreas and the Warriors talked about the collapse, and many teams met, including the Lakers, rockets and other teams, there is a great momentum to leave, he finally returned to the Warriors, the annual salary has risen to 16 million US dollars The

The higher the annual salary of Iguodala, the more Durant and others pay more. There was no pay cut when the library was renewed, and it would mean that the salary of Livingston and Andre Iguodala would have to be borne by Durant, who was paid by him alone NBA Live Mobile Coins. Durant is the effectiveness of the NBA 10 years veteran, if he is the top salary renewal warrior, 2017-18 season salary is 35% of the salary cap, up to 34.65 million US dollars.

Durant in order to retain the Iguodala and Livingston, initially gave up the opportunity to renew the contract, intended to use 2016-17 season annual salary of 120% renewal. Because according to the provisions of the labor agreement, a player if only one year with the effectiveness of the team, then the renewal of salary can be 120% of the previous salary or 120% of the NBA's basic salary, the two take the highest. Durant 2016-17 season salary of 26.54 million US dollars, if up 20%, then, is 31.6 million US dollars.

But because of the salary of Iguodala rose, Durant had to step back, choose to start with about 25 million US dollars and the Warriors renewed (specific figures to be announced), compared to the top salary reduced by about 9 million US dollars.

Durant pay off individuals and warriors and benefit

Durant cut his personal seemingly heavy losses, in fact he is one of the biggest beneficiaries. Because Durant in 2016 to leave the Thunder after joining the Warriors, his behavior was thousands of fingers, the media and fans that is the enemy, personal reputation plummeted. He won the championship in 2017, was elected to the finals MVP, to some extent relieved the pressure of criticism, but has not thoroughly wash their own.

If Durant wants to win back the reputation, and even to do the NBA first person, he needs to win a few championships to help the warriors become dynasty team, perhaps that time people will forget him to the Warriors Baotuan past. LeBron - James 2010 summer switch to the Heat, but also by the thousands of fingers, once became the most annoying player in the United States, but he through the Heat of the two championships, the success of the restoration of prestige.



Durant to continue to win the championship, you need to keep the warriors core lineup, to maintain the peak state. Compared to Durant, Curry has always been the Warriors boss, to help the warriors rise, won the 2015 championship, has no need to prove himself NBA Live Coins. Durant as the initiative to Baotuan players, the Warriors and his own to the cusp, he made a certain sacrifice is very necessary.

Warriors because Durant pay, not only to retain the core lineup, and the team can save a lot of luxury tax. NBA tax rate for luxury tax is increasing mode, more than luxury tax trigger line 1-500 million, the tax rate is 150%, more than 500-1000 million tax rate is 175%, after each increase of 5 million US dollars, the tax rate continues to increase. Warrior new season salary may exceed the luxury tax trigger line about 20 million US dollars, the highest face 375% tax rate, which will allow them to pay a lot of luxury tax.
