Why The Golden State Warriors Do The Deal
One thing is certain: this deal won’t help the Warriors with their financial woes.
Butler is on big, long-term money. This may cause another issue for the Warriors. They should still do the deal, and cross that bridge when they come to it.
This deal is about one last hurrah for the Warriors. It’s a talent grab. Here, they’re acquiring the most talented player Steph Curry has played with since Kevin Durant.
In all likelihood, this deal would have Butler starting at the 4. That’s exactly what he’s doing in Miami right now.
