Bro don’t fall into his trap, Draymond did it & so did many others in the past. Hell even Currys 4 yr 44 milly extension back back in the day was a pay cut. This is Warriors culture.. Harden was just a fat lard who knows he will never win a ring so he took a pay cut based on his talent cut. Not the same.
looool @ you thinking anyone on the Warriors has given up any sort of money even in the ballpark of what Harden gave up. Take the homer goggles off for one second. Draymond green is claiming he took a cut in 2015 to make himself look good but in actuality, his agent just did a shit job negotiating (hence why he fired him for Klutch) and he was never worth what Harden was anyway obviously. Draymond didn't even get a max offer from Detroit back then after negotiations to ramp up his price rofl.
And Curry took a pay cut? No, he just took a contract that seemed fair at the time and outplayed it with the cap exploding in the years to follow. HUGE difference, he never openly walked away from big money and never will. He signed that extension before his first MVP season so please stop.
The last player to really take a massive cut voluntarily to help his team add key pieces like Harden was maybe Dirk who was always giving a home team discount to help the roster. He took a larger cut than most people realize over the years.
