The first is the difference in strength. The difference in strength caused Green's different expectations of the two.
Durant was the first offensive player in the league at that time.
Moreover, when Durant joined the Warriors, the Warriors were at their peak and the overall lineup of the team was complete and healthy. Therefore, the Warriors are looking forward to Durant's performance after joining. They want Durant to help Curry lead them back to the top.
When Green scolded Durant, it was the moment when Durant lost after joining the Warriors.
So it can be said that Green scolded Durant for being responsible for the team. If Durant joins the Warriors, the superficial lineup of the Warriors will be strengthened, but the actual performance and record will remain unchanged, which will undoubtedly make the whole Warriors, including himself, a joke, which is obviously something that Green, who has strong self-esteem and desire to win, does not want to see.
As for Wiggins, he joined himself when the Warriors were not healthy. After joining Wiggins, he was in the starting small forward position of the Warriors, but at this time Thompson was injured and Curry had a history of injuries, and the Warriors' previous winning lineup was fragmented.
So there is no need for Green to criticize Wiggins often. After all, at these times, it is the two healthy bosses who should stand up and help the team solve the difficulties, he and Curry, not the newly joined, younger Wiggins.
There is no point in blaming a new young man when both of them can do nothing.
Second, the difference in status makes Green need to be stricter with Durant.
Green's role in the Warriors, in addition to assuming the defense system of the small ball lineup, also has a very important role, which is to ease the atmosphere in the locker room and promote the unity of the team.
After Durant joined, in fact, with his previous fame, it is likely to threaten Curry's position as the boss.
Besides, Durant is the boss himself. After joining the Warriors, if you let him be the second child, he will definitely not adapt.
Therefore, after Durant joined the Warriors, many people actually acquiesced that the Warriors had two bosses, but everything came first, and Curry was the leader of the Warriors.
At this time, Green is strict with Durant, one is to make Durant awake to his position, and the other is to prevent the team from splitting because of the leadership position, thus affecting the team's record.
Personally, Green obviously prefers Curry. Therefore, he wants to suppress Durant through Durant's grumpy temper, so that Durant has been afraid, which can be described as well-intentioned.
It can be said that Green has no problem with Durant, and even he recognizes Durant's ability. Only in terms of worldly wisdom, it is obvious that Green is more mature and flexible, so there is a scene of scolding Durant.
Wiggins is a low-key star. He doesn't care about the position of the boss at all, and no one has deliberately improved his position in the team since he joined the Warriors. So in Green's eyes, Wiggins is just an ordinary younger brother, and there is no need to suppress him.
Third, there are differences in mood.
With the increase of age, Green changed from the initial prickly head to a steady big man.
Therefore, his mood will also change. Instead of complaining, let yourself become the benchmark of the team and infect other players through your own practice.
During Durant's period, it was inevitable that Green was ambitious, aggressive and hot-tempered.
In contrast, now Green is actually more aware of the importance of his responsibility. After all, he is the big brother of the team, and he should set an example to help Curry lead the team forward.
To sum up, Green didn't mean to scold Durant, but he meant well. Wiggins is rarely criticized because of his understanding of the overall situation.
After all, the warrior is no longer the brave man of the year. What a warrior needs more is his leadership, not his ability to incite.
My understanding is this, because Durant always thinks that he is either the first or the second among the warriors, ahead of the dream-chasing Green, and the healthy prince Wiggins has no desire and will not threaten any position and authority of Green.
Green is really a player with a rather hot temper. He sprayed opponents, teammates and even the head coach. In a regular season this season, Green angrily sprayed teammate Wiseman, only to be expelled by the referee. This is also the first time in history that he was fired for spraying his teammates.
As a teammate of Green, I'm afraid everyone has been criticized by Green except Curry. Durant, in particular, as a former teammate, had many fierce quarrels, and Green even publicly criticized Adu. Why does Green dislike Adu so much?
First of all, Green personally recognizes Adu's strength, which is beyond doubt. No amount of criticism can change Adu's help to the Warriors to win the championship twice. He has won FMVP twice in a row. But Adu has never had a high position in the hearts of Green and Warriors management.
In Green's eyes, Adu is always the strongest mercenary, and can't replace the Splash Brothers as the absolute core of the Warriors, and so is the management of the Warriors. At the end of 20 19, the Warriors officially released a tribute video to pay tribute to NBA stars who have played for the Warriors for ten years. Even Patsuriya is in the camera, but without Adu, even the Achilles tendon can't move the management of the Warriors.
Moreover, at the beginning of the conflict between the two, as a management, it has long been able to contain such signs and will not develop into the following situation. Adu's position is clear at a glance.
Secondly, Adu himself is a very sensitive person. He is very concerned about what the outside world thinks. From the finals that year, he was forced to come back early until his achilles tendon broke. Adu's injured expression said it all.
During his several seasons in the Warriors, Adu wanted to be the first in the league and the core of the Warriors. Then even if he wins the championship for the second time, the second FMVP, the outside world is still discussing that James is the first in the league and Curry is the boss of the Warriors. His efforts don't seem to get the response they deserve.
From the second season in the Warriors, the relationship between Adu and the team began to be very subtle. Adu once asked Green, why did Curry vote like this? Why didn't he pass the ball? Why did Clay vote like this? If they do it again, he will leave the team. Which side do you think Green will take? The answer is obvious.
Besides, this is Green's personal character. Coupled with the above two factors, it means that Adu will be criticized as long as he has a little problem. Compared with the splash brothers, you adu are not a family after all.
Finally, I'm afraid this is a matter of interest. Of course, this is just speculation. At that time, Curry, Clay, Adu and Green of the Warriors were all faced with the problem of renewing their contracts. However, leaving four people is obviously impossible. Because of the terrible luxury tax and the lack of salary space, one person must go. And Green is well aware of this situation. The Huashui brothers can't be abandoned. The high probability will only be to leave a person between himself and Adu.
However, if Adu wants to stay, the probability of being sent away is quite high. After all, his weight in the management has not reached the level of the splash brothers, and everything is hard to say. Therefore, if Adu is stimulated to leave voluntarily, then he will be left behind and the big contract will go with the flow.
So it is not difficult to understand why Green dislikes Adu so much. Just because Adu is a sensitive character, it is understandable why Adu left the Warriors.
As for why Green seldom criticizes Wiggins, this question is easy to answer. First of all, Wiggins is different from Green and Durant. Durant can spray green, but Wiggins, as a junior, has to obey.
Moreover, Wiggins' personal emotional intelligence is much higher than that of Adu. He once praised his "big brother of the team" in front of the media, saying: "He knows how to judge the situation on the field, is a perfect team attack initiator and a team leader. He can always find players who are vacant and help his teammates score easily. " You see how nice this is. No matter how hard Green's mouth is, it must be soft.
Secondly, after the team is underestimated, both the team record and his personal state are not good. In this case, Green has no energy to criticize his teammates. Wiggins' performance is "stable" as always. You really can't ask him to sweat more.
Wiseman is different. After all, he was the second chosen by the Warriors in 2020. Green and the team still have great expectations for him. However, the deep responsibility of love is to hate iron and not produce.
The Ball is the same, seeking common ground while reserving differences. I am the god on the right hand side.
Wealth is touching! Come to think of it, when did Green start spraying Durant? Green's contract has expired, so he needs to sign a new big contract! At that time, the Warriors' salary cap reached the top, and Green determined that the Warriors' management would not give up Curry and Thompson! Then Durant is the only obstacle for Green to get the big contract! Durant and Green are dead or alive! As the saying goes, best friends never die being original! Green can only find a way to get rid of Durant! Then something inevitably happened to Durant, an outsider! Now Green is not bothered by the contract, the Warriors have a poor record, and the team needs a United atmosphere. Green certainly won't interfere with the atmosphere of the team! So now Green is doing better!
Durant's presence will affect Green's contract. Now that the big contract is in hand, those who come will not be sprayed again, because Green's goal has been achieved.
Dreamcatcher Green is a very inspirational player. He changed from a second-round show to a starter, then grew into an all-star, and finally got a top-paid contract, earning both fame and fortune. However, he is also an annoying player, especially his mouth, which makes people feel particularly uncomfortable.
In addition to cursing opponents, teammates and coaches were not spared. He once contradicted coach Cole, scolded teammate Wiseman and others, and especially insulted Durant. Besides insulting Durant's personality, he also insulted his family. The contradiction between him and Durant is the main reason why Durant left the Warriors. However, it is curious that Wiggins, who likes to keep fit on the court, should be treated strictly. Why does Green dare to scold Durant, but seldom criticize the scarf without desire?
In fact, Green scolded his teammates because they didn't perform good tactics or did some wrong actions on the court, so he used swearing to remind them what to do. Players like Wiggins, who play quietly on the court and listen to the coach's arrangement, rarely see Green scold. Many people think that Green insulted Durant from the bottom of his heart, but this is not the case.
In 20 16, the Warriors led by 3 1 in the finals, but they were finally reversed by the Cavaliers and missed the championship. They realize that if the team wants to win the championship in the future, it must recruit more talented players and solve problems with their talents when the team's tactics can't be played out. After learning that Durant was leaving the Thunder, Curry, Thompson, Green and Iguodala went to recruit Durant together, which means that Green is one of the players to recruit Durant. If he looked down on Durant, why did he recruit Durant?
Because he looked down on Durant, he called Durant what Green wanted us to see, and he wanted to make Durant angry because Durant's existence touched his interests. Green thought Durant was just here to help them win the championship. As a new player, Durant ranks behind Curry, Thompson and him in the team, but Durant's strength does not allow him to keep a low profile. He helped the Warriors win two consecutive championships and two finals MVP, and his position in the team is second only to the team soul pool. Green changed from the third to the fourth, and he was very uncomfortable. This is one aspect of Durant's cake that touches his interests.
On the other hand, it has something to do with Green's contract renewal. On 20 15, Green helped the Warriors win the championship. With outstanding performance, he got a five-year contract extension of $85 million, which will not end until the summer of 2020. But in the last year, Green had the option to jump out of the contract and renew the contract in advance, which meant that 20 19 was also Green's contract year, and it was this year that he had a fierce conflict with Durant.
In addition to renewing Durant and Green, the Warriors will renew Thompson this year. The team can't offer three players the highest salary contract renewal at the same time. From the strength point of view, Green's contract renewal will be delayed, which means that Green will either not renew his contract in advance or get the top salary one year later, but there are already three top-paid players in the team, Curry, Thompson and Durant, and Green still can't get the top salary contract, so he will leave a player before Green gets the top salary.
Green abused Durant in order to get rid of him, because Durant's existence made him lower in the team, and it was very likely that he would not get the top salary contract. He cursed Durant for profit. On the other hand, Wiggins' desire to play will not threaten Green's team status at all, and at this time, Green has signed a top salary contract and there is no conflict of interest with Wiggins. Looking at Wiggins' warm and innocent smile, it is normal for him not to scold.
In my opinion, the main reason is that chasing dreams has changed a lot!
To put it in detail, Wiggins and the dreamer are two people with extreme personalities. Wiggins: Gentle personality, good temper, dream catcher. Green: irritable and impulsive, but these two extremely polarized people should be contradictory, but they get along well. The main thing is that dream catchers have changed, become much smoother and stop spitting at people!
The main reasons for the change of dream pursuit are as follows:
Team management talks with dream catchers.
Maybe it's Durant's lesson. The management of the Warriors should put a big lock on Mr. Green's mouth and tell him to keep his mouth shut. You can observe that in the past two seasons, Mr. Green rarely took the initiative to provoke others, but most of the time he began to play the role of peacemaker, patiently guiding teenagers like Mr. Ubray and Mr. Wiseman, so it should be the management who talked to him!
Vanity makes it.
Green is the No.35 show in the second round of 13 season, and Wiggins is the No.1 pick in 14 season. The draft status can be described as a world of difference! But now Green has grown into the top small center in the "Triple Crown in Hand" league, holding a big contract and being flattered. On the other hand, Wiggins was traded by the Cavaliers to the Timberwolves, and was traded by the Timberwolves to the Warriors. So far, except that the contract is bigger than Green's, other achievements are not as good as Green's!
Every time Green sees Wiggins, his satisfaction arises spontaneously, and his self-confidence suddenly jumps up. Imagine, if Green can regain his confidence, why would he be willing to spray him away?
Wiggins' performance
In addition, Wiggins came to the Warriors with remarkable performance, stable score and dirty work. He played the Lakers against James and the Clippers against Leonard. His opponent is always the leader of the other team. What does Green think of this performance?
There is no conflict of interest
At the beginning, Greenpen Durant mainly wanted to win a big contract for himself. Now that he has signed a big contract, Green has no reason to spray others!
Besides, Green has started his own business now, and he has signed up as another news anchor. Businessmen like this have learned the truth of "making money with kindness", unlike before, they have to work hard for big contracts. Now they just need to keep their contacts!
Wilkins is a thief!
Before I came, you were a triple crown dynasty!
Aren't you the best defensive player? Don't you have the ability to cope with the axis of history Don't you have super teammates like MVP Curry and historical three-point king Thompson! If you are so awesome, let you perform! The tide receded, and I, Wilkins, quietly watched you warriors swim naked.
The NBA league has a hard salary cap. There is no dispute that Warrior Curry has the highest salary. Durant is here. It must be a top salary, too. Thompson also wants a high salary. Green wants a high salary. Warriors boss can't come up with four top salaries. Of the four people, only Durant is an outsider, reporting his thigh. Not only makes outsiders laugh, but also makes them look down upon inside. More importantly, because of the interests. Get rid of Durant so that you can get more money. Wiggins doesn't affect Green's making money at present, but he is at peace for the time being.
Who else can you spray this season? Before spraying yourself, the teammates around you have a good record and feel that they are also very good. No one will accept it now.
