Draymond Green, Jordan Poole scuffle not to related to contracts or salary

Zach Lowe: My theory was… and I was told this was not true, but my pet theory was, which I invented and asked people ‘Is this what they were arguing about?’ was… I thought, if I’m Jordan Poole, where I can really twist the knife is if I’m like ‘Hey …

Zach Lowe: My theory was… and I was told this was not true, but my pet theory was, which I invented and asked people ‘Is this what they were arguing about?’ was… I thought, if I’m Jordan Poole, where I can really twist the knife is if I’m like ‘Hey Draymond Green, you got four rings, Hall-of-Famer. I’m about to make more money than you based on one NBA season. I’m about to have a higher salary than you based on one season.’ … but I was told emphatically that’s not the case. And in fact, Poole is a guy I’ve been told who doesn’t care all that much about the money.

Bobby Portis served an 8-game suspension for an altercation with Nikola Mirotic in 2017 when Mirotic was the instigator. Since the Draymond Green video can’t be un-leaked, have to imagine the Warriors will dish out something more severe. That was assault. – 1:48 PM

Not saying GS even considers this, just stating the facts:
GS is projected to be $40M > the tax and as a Repeater their TAX BILL alone will be ~$176M. Removing Draymond’s $25.8M would save them $134.8M in Tax this season.
This assumes they take back $0 which is unrealistic. – 12:10 PM
