Despite the Los Angeles Lakers' four-year offer of $80 million, Klay Thompson still chose to join the Dallas Mavericks, even if it was only $50 million for three years, and the biggest factor in making Klay Thompson make this choice was the chance to win the NBA championship.
This season, the Dallas Mavericks reached the NBA Finals, with only three wins away from winning the NBA championship, which is in line with Klay Thompson's desire to join a team that has the ability to compete for a championship.
You know, Klay Thompson left the Golden State Warriors just to prove himself, and if he left the Golden State Warriors to win another championship, it would be a big shock to the Golden State Warriors. At that time, Klay Thompson will say, "In the Golden State Warriors, I am the champion, and without the Golden State Warriors, I am still the championship." The Klay Thompson formula was established.
We all know that Klay Thompson is still an excellent shooter, and while he's no longer the second choice on the offensive end and the first choice on the defensive end, he can simplify the role alongside great initiators like Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving to support the Dallas Mavericks' firepower from the three-point line. And with the departure of Klay Thompson, the "Warriors Dynasty" created by Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson in the past 13 years has collapsed, and the "Splash Brothers" have also become history. In the new season, what kind of sparks will the Golden State Warriors spark against the Dallas Mavericks?
