Warriors owner Joe Lacob has demonstrated his commitment to winning by consistently paying the luxury tax, which highlights his determination to improve the team. Lacob's enthusiastic reaction during Jimmy Butler's debut showcases his passion and investment in the franchise. Despite the Warriors' struggles, he chose not to cut costs but instead sought significant talent acquisitions, including attempts to trade for Durant and ultimately landing Butler. His track record since purchasing the team reflects a relentless pursuit of championship glory, akin to the iconic Dr. Jerry Buss of the Lakers.
"We're always looking to do something, maybe even significant, at all times. Why not? Why not try to get better?"
"Lacob has paid the luxury tax every season except for the lost 2019-20 campaign. No other owner in the league has shown a willingness to spend like that."
