The owner of the Golden State Warriors discloses their future goals.
This offseason, the Golden State Warriors have a lot to learn, and a lot of it depends on how the rest of the season goes. In an interview with Tim Kawakami of The Athletic on The TK Show, Joe Lacob, the owner of the Warriors, discussed some of the team’s future ambitions, some of which could start this summer.
Actually, Plan 1A would want to be exempt from the tax, and we believe we have a mechanism to achieve that.” Jacob remarked, “That’s kind of the idea. For reasons I’ll explain later, not just on the second apron. In actuality, in order to remove this repeater item from our books, we must be below the tax in two of the next four years. It’s just very expensive. Not that we wouldn’t do it if necessary, but you have to consider the drawbacks of doing so.”
Lacob clarified that his goal of staying below the luxury tax is to provide Golden State’s front staff with the most amount of flexibility feasible in light of the new Collective Bargaining Agreement.
Lacob also said to Kawakami, “Plan 1B is that we can make significant adjustments if necessary. You can be sure that significant changes will occur if this squad completely collapses and finishes the season poorly. If we perform really well, we may choose to turn around.”
