While there was initially some optimism within the Warriors organization that
the dream partnership between Curry and James would become a reality, team
sources said the Warriors soon understood that their chances of actually
landing LeBron were small. They held out hope that he would decide to spend
his last year or two playing in the Bay with some of his basketball friends,
but they were never banking on it.

The hope was that James’ strong relationship with Green and longtime
relationship with Curry would be enough to sway him. They knew they had the
type of organization that could handle a star with the type of interest that
James still generates each day. The problem for the Warriors, especially with
Jimmy Butler still rehabbing an ACL injury, is that they just couldn’t sell a
 realistic path back toward championship contention.

In the end, as much as the idea of playing with Curry may have been appealing,
 the lack of realistic contention likely hurt the Warriors more than anything
else. Green even opted out of his contract at the 11th hour to give the
Warriors maximum flexibility to sign James and to perhaps trade Butler for
Anthony Davis, but “it happened without any indication that it would happen,
” a team source said. The Warriors are now expected to re-sign Green to
roughly the same dollar amount — nearly $28 million — of the player’s
option he declined last month.

“James is such an enigma,” a league source close to the Warriors told The
Athletic.


最初，勇士對於Curry與James的夢幻聯手能成為現實抱持著一些樂觀態度，但球隊消息
人士透露，勇士很快就明白他們真正引進 LeBron 的機會非常渺茫。他們曾抱持一絲希望
，期待他會決定在灣區與一些籃球好友一同度過生涯最後的一兩年，但他們從未對此寄
予厚望。

這份希望源於 James 與 Green 的深厚關係以及Curry 的長期交情，勇士希望這足以說
服他加盟。他們知道自己的球團規模與體制，完全有能力應對像 James 這樣至今每天依然備
受矚目的超級巨星。然而，勇士面臨的問題在於

他們根本無法展現出一條重返爭冠行列的現實路線。

特別是在是在Jimmy Butler仍在進行前十字韌帶傷勢復健的情況下

最終，儘管與 Curry 一同打球的想法可能很有吸引力，但缺乏爭冠的現實可行性，或許
比其他任何因素都更重創了勇士的企圖。

Green 甚至在最後關頭選擇跳出合約，好給予勇士最大的薪資空間靈活度來簽下 James
，並嘗試透過交易 Butler 來換取 Anthony Davis，一位團隊消息人士表示：「這件事情
發生得毫無徵兆。」

現在預計勇士將以大致相同的金額（將近 2800 萬美元）重新簽下 Green，這正是他上個
月放棄執行的球員選擇權金額。

一位接近勇士的聯盟消息人士告訴《The Athletic》：「James 真的是個謎一般的人。」

看起來是說好沒有搶到LBJ就還錢給Green了 連球隊消息人士都被Green最後跳出去的舉動
驚訝到 因此應該是有口頭講好 搶搶看老詹 沒搶到就還錢

但勇士如果用了雙年特例續約Melton 會被鎖一層

沒辦法真的開給Green 28M的合約 感覺會改用複數年年均20M+補給他吧

不然就是改成Melton迷你 然後Green直接給滿一年 問題解決

剩下就底薪收工了
