Last we checked publicly, Lacob said the franchise ducked the tax this past season (escaping the punitive repeater penalties) so the Warriors could spend big this offseason, using all those available, expensive roster-building tools. Has that mindset changed? There’s no way to be sure until the financial wreckage of this ongoing, unprecedented and uncertain crisis is fully understood. But if they emerge still willing to use the trade exception — even if it means a $30+ million tab for a seventh, eighth man in the rotation — they should enter a buyer’s friendly market, where taking salary off of someone else’s books increasingly looks like it’ll be a larger favor.
