Insurance? You mean if he has a horrible injury while waiting for his FA, there is risk but players are coming back much better today then they were a decade ago, medical technology has made great strides in recent years. If he had any real concerns about that he should have taken the offer a year ago, obliviously he's ready to bet on himself.
So the mle is not the floor
Ugh... "expected floor" (I mentioned expected in a previous thread, didn't know I had to keep putting it in every post) because nothing is certain until it happens. It's why he didn't take 25 mil a year later, he expected more which seems he and his agent were wrong for this particular off-season so far. I'd say he has the same expectations next year as he did this year.
Send him to Phoenix, try to get M.Williams (if GS medical team oks it) and R. O'Neal and they can give Kuminga a descending contract to allow that trade to happen then go add Horford and Melton. If Williams is good and stays healthy, maybe that's the Warrior's long-term center, he just needs to stay healthy to play and to bulk up.
