Warped rear rotors...Should I get new pads?

I have a set of warped rear rotors with akebono pads on the rear. They have been on the truck for about 2500 miles. I recently warped the rear rotors and was wondering if I should keep these pads and sand them a little or replace them with new ones when my powerslots come. These were pretty expensive pads so I wanted to get a few more opinions.
Thanks

yes, you should replace the pads. With warped rotors they are most likely warn unevenly.

And any time you replace rotors you should replace the pads.

Yes, get new pads. It's dumb to not replace pads when replacing rotors.
