To me, he’s still clearly a top 5 coach in this league. Most of the gripes about him have a point but way overrate some of our bench and youngsters and really are not being fair about the personnel issues we’ve had this year.


He isn't anymore, and it goes to illustrate the point that rosters make the coaches reps 99% of the time.

Take that RAPM stuff.. its about as useless as something could be in terms of present evaluation. Example - I've owned my car for 10 years. It breaks down today. I don't reference how well its ran the past 10 years to evaluate how good it is today. It's not relevant

Kerr was (is?) great at managing personalities, so when you give him a boatload of talent, he can do fine with it. He sticks to a gameplan, which is great when you have the talent edge. The Warriors dont anymore. If they want to win anything going forward while Steph is here, barring some miracle offseason trade, they need to actually be creative with their solutions. Adaptive in-game. He has not shown the ability to do either. He has, however, correctly chosen solutions provided by former/current HCs like Mike Malone, Alvin Gentry, and most recently Mike Brown. But now? It looks like Kenny Atkinson and the rest just don't have that in them, or maybe Kerr isn't listening. Either way, the buck stops with Kerr and he's leaving a lot of value on the table. And the team simply cannot absorb that margin of error anymore

And FFS this replacement stuff.. when Kerr was about to be hired, most wanted SVG instead. Why? Because no one knew a damn thing about Kerr. Or SVG actually. So my suggestion is John Smith. You dont know him but he's great. If not him, then another AC on a good team. He's also great and exactly what we need. He likes defense very much


To me it's a great indictment of his coaching career that the #1 thing most people say about him is he is good at managing personalities, and yet one of this players ran one player out of town and literally knocked out another lol

Going by how things are unfolding there is one way I can see people ending up calling Steve Kerr a genius after this season. Note how the Dubs no longer have any games against most of the top Western Conference teams. If Moody gets steady minutes going forward and is a big factor in the playoffs surprising rivals not ready for the new look Warriors that could be an advantage. If that happens though I'm guessing it would be an example of Kerr stumbling into brilliance rather than by design.

Just two years ago, the Dubs ran Denver off the court. Now, in Kuminga and Podziemski, the Dubs have fresh legs. I'm not too worried about the Nuggets. Jokic had 30 points, 19 boards and 8 assists in Game 5 of the First Round in 2022 and Denver still went down. If their shots drop, the Warriors win. I am, however, worried about the Lakers. But, that has less to do with how they play as a team and more to do with the extreme preferential treatment LeBron & Co. get from the referees. However it turns out, I hope people enjoy and appreciate the ride. It's supposed to be enjoyable, not a source of angst. :D

Puzzling to me how you can look at Poole this season and think that the problem is he is not on our roster anymore.

There is also nothing from how Durant has operated his whole career to suggest he would be happy to play out his career in one place. As much as the dray part was bang out of line, it’s more the fact that it was blindingly obvious that this was Steph’s city and he would never get credit for joining him.

lol man what are you even talking about here

I dont have any issue with how Kerr has managed the personalities and I'm glad Poole is gone. Agree on KD. My issue with Kerr is strictly his adaptability in-game and how he doesnt have a large margin of error anymore

How look our young players I am starting to think about two time lines again :) Its only on Kerr how he will manage it. Last year and this year Kerr played over them players like Lamb/CoJo/Saric/Lester/Jerome/JaMychal/Klay. I cant image where would we be with youngters x2 playing time. This year:

Podziemski +6.4nrtg 111.7drtg
Kuminga +4.0nrtg 111.4drtg
Moody +2.0nrtg 110.2drtg
Davis +2.0nrtg 113.2drtg

Imagine a coach saying if we play the young guys that means we’re no longer competing and changes what we want to do with the season. Damn was that coach wrong.

Kerr may have finally gotten to a real rotation. He gave the vets who were trying to play for their next contract ample leash to prove what they have. Let’s see if he can navigate the playoffs. We should end the season on like a 17-3 ish type run.

Damn was I off. Kerr went the other way and decided to play Klay more off the bench and less curry. Smh. It looked so promising at the beginning of this month and now I just want the season to end.

It was both. I know one of KD's friends. KD said he left because of Currys shadow and because Green is such an ass hole.

Had they moved Green for a piece that KD liked I'm guessing he would have stayed. KD felt the team and system were built too much around Curry. Moving Green could have killed two birds with one stone.

i think he would have left anyway.

he was already in contact with the flat earther talking about playing together, and i think steph's presence was the ultimate influence.
