Maybe for now yes he has a good contribution to the team but what about for next succeeding years? For sure his game play will decline more and leadership will not totally help their team for more longer times since for sure its just a waste of their asset to spend a huge contract for a possible bench warmer. Green is 32 years old and giving max contract is not totally worth for the management
Yeah, it's almost impossible for old player to stay in basketball since every year there's a young generation who's more aggressive and fast that would outplayed old player. In the next few years he will get replaced by Jonathan Kuminga.
Green's game is not about scoring or being athletic. He is more of a facilitator to his teammates. His value comes from his defense, his intelligence, and the little things he does inside the court. He can still be valuable 3 to 4 years from now but absolutely not the type that gets a max contract.
On the other hand, with what happen on the Warriors, I think, one of them might be traded to the other team, if it's Green, I have a feeling that the Warriors will struggle in the playoffs.
I think I watched somewhere that there will be no trades happening, but I am not sure. We will see as this story develops. Surely, if there is any changes in personnel, it will greatly affect the team but it is early in the season. If there is any changes, they can still adjust until the playoffs. There is plenty of time.
I am more excited about the LA Clippers, I like to see John Wall playing like a real superstar, being surrounded by PG13 and Kawhi Leonard should make inspire him more to play his best because they have the best chance of winning a championship.
I just hope AD, Zion, Kawhi, and John Wall stay healthy until the playoffs. I would love to see how the west will be when all of these players are healthy. There is no sure winner, even GSW is not safe. It would be a riot in the playoffs if these players will stay healthy.
