With Warriors already in luxury tax, will Jordan Poole's breakout season net
him max extension?
勇士已經在付奢侈稅 這會影響Jordan Poole是否能拿到頂薪續約呢？

SAN FRANCISCO — It took a moment for Jordan Poole to soak it all in, wearing
the hat and T-shirt with confetti dropping from above at Chase Center as the
Golden State Warriors clinched a trip to the NBA Finals.
勇士拿下西冠，打進總冠，滿天紙片在Chase Center落下，Jordan Poole戴著帽子穿著
T恤，花了點時間沉浸在那當下的氣氛。

If it’s a feeling he wants to help duplicate, the punitive luxury tax
penalties won’t be a deterrent for the Warriors to keep him.
若是他想再度享受這感覺，恐怖的奢侈稅對勇士來說不會因為這樣就不留下他。

Warriors president of basketball operations and general manager Bob Myers cut
off the question before it could be finished, flatly saying “no” when asked
by Yahoo Sports if financial concerns would keep the franchise from keeping
one of its youngest, most productive players.
在問到勇士會不會因為財務考量而無法留下他們年輕又能得分的球員，這問題還沒問完，
勇士總管Bob Myers就直接打斷，平淡的說了「不會。」

“No, no,” Myers told Yahoo Sports. “I mean, thankfully [I] work for an
ownership group in Joe [Lacob] that has committed all kinds of resources to
winning. And I know that because every time I asked him about roster and
strategy, it’s always winning.”

offseason, as Poole is finishing his third season — leaving the option for
the two to come to terms on a rookie-scale extension before October. If they
don’t come to a deal, Poole would hit restricted free agency in July 2023.


“You don’t need me to tell you what our payroll is. It’s pretty high,”
Myers told Yahoo Sports. “So he just wants to win. And we’ve spent a lot
and we’ve kept all the players we want to keep, so I don’t see that
changing.”


The Warriors’ payroll is some $40 million over the luxury tax threshold of
$175 million, which means as a luxury-tax repeater, the bill could almost
equal dollar-for-dollar of player salaries. However, there are estimates the
Warriors are bringing in nearly $100 million in playoff revenue alone, so it’
s not like Lacob and the team ownership group will cry poverty, as Myers
alluded to, especially in the name of winning.
