Klay Thompson has left the Warriors after all, and according to multiple reports, Thompson plans to sign a three-year, $50 million contract with the Mavericks. After more than a decade with the Warriors, Thompson eventually left the Warriors and moved on to other teams later in his career. The Curry and Thompson splash brothers eventually broke up.

It is worth noting that Thompson signed a three-year contract with the Mavericks for $50 million, which is equivalent to an annual salary of more than $16 million. It's a difference from the previous Warriors' offer for Thompson. At the time, the Warriors had an offer of $50 million for two years, or $25 million a year. In other words, Thompson's current annual salary is lower than the Warriors' offer at the time. We don't understand why Thompson chose to take a smaller annual salary and join another team. If I had to give an explanation, it might be that he was a little unhappy with the Warriors' management.

Apparently Thompson realized that he was not respected by the Warriors management, so he chose this way to fight for his breath, and even said that it was ugly to get revenge on the Warriors management. I have to say that after the Warriors management changed the general manager, the way they took was indeed more extreme. If Myers had remained as general manager, he would probably have given Thompson a great deal of respect. Dunleavy doesn't have much of a friendship with Thompson, so he's more iron-hearted when it comes to free agency.

Now that Thompson has chosen to leave the Warriors, many Warriors fans still wish Thompson a better career in the future and a consistent performance on other teams. Fortunately, Thompson has joined a strong team and is still a favorite to compete for the championship. The Mavericks reached the Finals this year, and Thompson still has a lot of shooting opportunities after joining the Mavericks, especially playing next to Irving and Doncic.

Thompson still has a chance to compete for a championship when he arrives with the Mavericks. He is even more likely to get his fifth championship ring than Curry. Because the Mavericks' current overall strength is already incomparable to the Warriors, after all, they reached the Finals this year and will be the favorite team for the championship in the next few years. For the Mavericks, they finally ushered in a marksman, and it is a historical level marksman, the new season of the Mavericks is worth looking forward to, and their ratings and attention will increase. They are technically part of the Big Three.
