The Warriors have been placed in a cavalier situation not just in terms of free agency and cap space on top of injury, but also in terms of some surplus money being given to players not worth it. Shaun Livingston, for example, is slated to earn $7.6 million next season but hardly ever contributes in a manner befitting that wage.

Andre is a playoffs player - a 16-game player who's way past those days when he was an 82-game player. The Warriors' wing depth was depleted by Patrick McCaw's departure, and Alfonzo McKinnie is only a bit-part replacement for him. As a result, it looks like Steph will be leading a hobbled team through the majority of the next season even if Klay is re-signed to the max deal he wants.

The Warriors' cap restrictions mean that they can mostly only sign castoffs and rotation players from other teams. It remains to be seen what kind of savvy Bob Myers applies to fill their roster come October.
